About: Experience walking and caring for dogs and cats. I have fostered several animals throughout college and have trained dogs of all ages. My own pet is AKC Caine Good Citizen Certified and I have a research background in dog Vet Care and can make adjustments to care based on breed and any current health issues. I make time to take my own pet out on adventures and I'd love to be able to take yours out for some fun as well! I'm vigilant of potential dangers with care for a pet outside of their home. I take notice of areas/ other pets to avoid and will physically step in to protect your pets boundaries.
About: I have been surrounded by pets and caring for them since I was a child. For years, I’ve been the go-to trusted pet sitter for my family, cousins, and neighbors, helping them feed, walk, and look after their furry friends. Currently, I am the proud owner and primary caretaker of my dog, Jet. Having my own pet has taught me so much about routine, patience, and the unique needs of dogs. I will treat your pups with the exact same love, dedication, and attention that I give to my own. I currently balance my schedule with flexible part-time commitments, which gives me plenty of open hours and flexibility to dedicatedly look after your pups. I have ample time throughout the week for structured walks, engaging playtime, and maintaining their usual feeding routines without any rush. Whether it is providing dedicated care during the day or keeping them active, my schedule allows me to be highly attentive and completely present for your dog's daily needs. Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities when caring for your pet. I provide a highly secure, welcoming, and loving environment where your furry family member will feel right at home. I make sure to closely supervise all activities, follow your specific house rules, and strictly adhere to any feeding, walking, or medical guidelines you provide. Your dog will receive constant attention, care, and a safe space to feel completely comfortable, happy, and loved while you are away.
About: Animals have been the center of my world for as long as I can remember. Growing up in a household that hosted numerous foster dogs gave me hands-on, real-world experience with different breeds, behaviors, and energy levels. Today, that passion has trickled into my adult life as a dedicated pet caregiver. Whether it’s my own pets, family dogs, or a new foster pup, my lengthy experience means your best friend is always in safe, capable, and loving hands. Nutrition is important to me, so I make sure my dog is properly fed, but activity is equally as important. Everyday I fit a long outdoor hike or walk in for my dog! I am trustworthy with feed and keeping your pup active! I will walk, feed, play, and keep your pup safe. Whether we are in my home with a fenced yard, or at your home, your pup will be safe and happy!
“Mari was great to work with. It was my first time using Rover and I'm happy that I chose Mari. She asked me a lot of great qualifying questions about my pet and how I'd like the service to be handled. And then she followed through with all of the directions I provided. My cat Randy warmed up to Mari right away, which I could tell from the photos and video she sent to me once the stay started. I would highly recommend Mari for any of your pet sitting needs and I'll rely on her again when needed. Thanks Mari!”
About: I treat dogs as real babies and children. I have had my dog Hachi for over 3 years now and understand the expectations and standards that I would require from someone caring for him. I intend to uphold those same standards when it comes to supervision, walks, feeding, playtime, and other various needs. I am in college working at a steakhouse part time roughly 3-4 nights a week. Looking for morning to mid-day gigs throughout the summer and partially when school begins again. I wake up at the same time every morning to walk and feed my dog and the same time every night. Both my dog and cat are fed twice a day with varying diets depending on their health needs. They are shown constant love and affection and my dog gets plenty of play time and time outside

“Pamela was very friendly and loving with our pet, was on time and as our dog got more accustomed to her (this was the first time), they even went on a little walk together 😊I would highly recommend her!!”
“Christella was great with my cat! She was timely, communicative and very easy to work with. I received lots of updates and pictures of them playing as well. My cat also seemed so much calmer and “tired out”after Christella’s visits which is amazing!”
“Tori is very prompt, communicative, and friendly, and got along great with our cat. Our cat was eager to greet her and get lots of pets. Definitely looking forward to booking again soon!”
About: Hi my name is Elle. I am an animal lover, advocate, and a volunteer at a local animal shelter. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and have had a natural affinity for all kinds of animals. I have boarded dogs for both short-term and long-term stays (months to years). I understand the unique needs of different breeds and adjust care accordingly. I understand dog behavior, and needs-your dog is family, and I treat them as such. Full-Time, Dog Care - A Safe, Loving Home for Your Dog. Dog boarding is my full-time work and passion —caring for dogs is not a side job but a choice l've committed to for years. I provide round-the-clock care, ensuring every dog in my home is safe, happy, and well-cared for. I board a maximum of 1 dog at a time. My own dog is calm, friendly, and never interfere with your dog's care. All walks are on-leash, and I do not socialize your dog with outside dogs or humans unless instructed. Photo updates at least 3 times daily - so you can feel connected to your dog while you're away. I strictly follow your instructions, including feeding schedules, play preferences, and routines and only feed the food you provide, ensuring your dog's diet remains consistent.
“Lana was a loving mom to our cat Aeva! Lana not only gave food and cleaned poop, she played and spoilt Aeva until she purred contentedly... Lana even visited her twice on a day where she had a family event and is not business minded whatsoever!”

“Alitha was so wonderful! She watched my cat Mari and made sure to play with her each day and send photos. I would totally have Alitha watch Mari again any time. I would recommend her to anyone!”
“This is my first time using rover and at first I was skeptical because I have a very anxious and not so friendly Pitbull. I introduced her to Alex and while he met her he was calm and letting her sniff him. I had warned him that she doesn’t like to be pet and he respected that and let her be the one to get close to him. After meeting him and letting him walk her 3 times I was able to go on my trip for 4 days and he would go to my house and walk her with no problem. We have cameras and I saw how comfortable she was with him which was unbelievable to me and my husband. He kept us updated every step of the way and sent us multiple videos a day. To say I’m beyond satisfied with Alex’s service is an understatement. Will definitely book him again in the future!”

Loretto was wonderful with my dog, Mapache. He can be a bit of a troublemaker and doesn’t always warm up to new sitters, so I was pleasantly surprised by how calm and comfortable he was during Loretto’s visit. Loretto was patient, reliable, and clearly has a great way with dogs. I would happily book with him again!
Everything ran super smooth even after me booking last minute. Doosung has great communication skills, he was super pontual and sent tons of photos. Happy my dog had quality time with him while I was away. Thank you Doosung for the support and will def reach you over again.
Wen was just amazing to work with during my family vacation! It was the first long vacation we’ve ever had because we worried about our fur babies. But after met Wen before booking, she was knowledgeable and professional for dog and cat. She send us lot of pictures and comments if needed and always arrived the time we were discussed. We will definitely ask her later to care our fur family! Thank you so much for your work and care. 🙏
Haziza is the absolute best!!! My dog cheddar adores Haziza. She is always so punctual, communicative, friendly, and just overall a fantastic person to look after your furry little pal. We have rebooked Haziza again and again, and I can’t recommend her highly enough!
Shirley is THE BEST. I was hesitant at first because she only had one review, but after regularly checking in on my Ring camera, I was so happy with my choice. I truly don’t think anyone could have taken better care of my Theo. He was entertained and playing with her 24/7, she walked him regularly, and followed his specialized feeding directions to a T. My only complaint is that my dog seemed genuinely disappointed when I came home!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a North Bergen stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in North Bergen choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
