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: Hi! I’m Janise. Traveling can bring out the best and the worst in anyone and I’m here to make that trip, whether it’s a quick getaway or a long haul, as easy as possible. Let me lend a hand! 🤚🏾 Between me, my husband, our kids, and our dog Frankie, your pet is walking into a full house of love. We have a large backyard where the dogs can run and play while working together as a family to make sure your fur baby gets the attention and love they deserve. Pet care fits in really well with our routine. I work, but I’m in and out of the house throughout the day, and so is my husband and teenage son, so there’s almost always someone around to walk, play with, and check on your pet. Weekends and holidays we’re all home, so your pet will get even more attention those days For boarding, your dog stays right in our home with the family they’ll have a dog to keep them company, a big backyard to run around in, and plenty of attention from all of us. They’re treated like part of the family, not just a guest. For walks, I keep things consistent with whatever routine your dog is used to same schedule, same pace, whatever works best for them. For pick up and drop off, I make sure the handoff is easy and stress free. I’ll communicate with you the whole time so you always know your pet is in good hands
About: I have always been an animal lover. I believe all animals deserve respect including the smallest mice. I have 10 years of experience with dogs and cats and i’m looking to make it more! What makes me stand out is I genuinely bond quickly with even the grumpiest dog. Yes, even pugs I’m currently a stay at home mom looking to bring in some extra money for our family so I can go to school for interior design. At the moment I have an open schedule specifically for mornings, afternoons. I can work with evenings and nights as well if you let me know in advanced. Although I live in a pet friendly apartment complex, we have a giant park and dog park right next to us. Dogs deserve to have outside time and explore just as much as we do.
“As always, we had a great experience with Rachel! She took great care of our cats and even cleaned up any messes they made. We really appreciated the detailed Rover cards with updates and pictures after each visit—it gave us peace of mind while we were away. She was also very communicative and responsive throughout. Our cats love Rachel too. Would definitely book Rachel again!”
“Lauryn did a great job taking care of my cats. One of my cats is usually very shy and hides whenever someone visits, but he quickly warmed up to Lauryn and even spent time hanging out with her. This same cat can also create a mess, and Lauryn went above and beyond by cleaning up. Lauryn also shared photos and detailed notes through the Rover card, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I really appreciated her care and would recommend her!”
“Javier took great care of my cat for two weeks and was always kind, reliable, and responsible. I truly appreciate his dedication and would definitely ask for his help again. Highly recommended.”
“5 stars isn’t enough!!!! Angela was so patient with my kitties and ME. This was my first time ever having to search for a pet sitter and I couldn’t have been luckier to find her. One of my cats has diabetes and requires a shot daily, Angela took her time with him and gave him extra pets before she left. Im so glad I found her!!!!”
“She is absolutely the best! She was supposed to drop in for 30 minutes, but she spent several hours and even took my dog to the dog park because she knew I’m overwhelmed with the bar exam and moving🥹🥹🥹 I can’t thank her enough and highly recommend her.”
About: I have 1 year of hands-on dog care experience. I lived with a Labradoodle and helped regularly with feeding, refilling water, daily walks and playtime. I’m calm, patient, and very safety-focused, especially during walks and when entering/exiting the home. I’ll follow your routine closely and make sure your dog gets attention, exercise, and a stress-free experience. I’m currently flexible and can fit pet care into my daily routine easily. I’m available for drop-in visits and dog walks on weekdays. I always follow your pet’s routine for feeding, potty breaks and playtime, and I’m responsive with updates and photos. Safety and cleanliness are my top priorities. I always keep dogs on leash during walks, avoid unsafe areas, and double-check doors and gates when entering or leaving. I can follow special instructions like slow introductions, feeding rules, and medication routines if needed. I keep a tidy home environment!
“Randi was great! She Took care of our two cats while we were out of town for the week. She made sure to take photos and keep us updated with how they were doing the whole time!”
“Nicole was wonderful during her drop in with our 4 yr old Samoyed. Our pup instantly took to her and Nicole was so kind, patient with her barking, and very attentive to our routine. She is super communicative, punctual, and gave our pup all of her attention. We had peace of mind that our pup was safe and will definitely book Nicole again!”
“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!!”
About: I’ve been taking care of cats when I was teenagers. My first cat was 17 years old. I just got my new cat, I bought everything for my cat. I am good with keeping everything as clean as possible, vacuum everyday. I also have experience taking care of small dogs. I took care of my step daughter's two Yorkshire Terrier dogs when she was travelling, One of them is more than 10 years old. I fed the dogs and clean the dog's face, comb their hair, play with them. It was fun time. They like me more than my husband, haha. I’m free after work, I work at Wall street Manhattan, living near Fort Lee NJ. I will be available after work Monday to Friday, weekends will be more flexible. I bought everything automatic for my cat. The automatic litter box, I clean it every day. Water fountain has filter, I wash and change the water every 3 to 4 days with boiled water (cooling down) due to my cat only has one kidney. Cat food, I feed him with wet can food twice a day and with dry food automatic feeding. I mix different cat food due to his sensitive stomach.
“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!”
About: I love dogs and understand that yours is part of your family. I have owned dogs for over 18 years (male german shepherd mix and female pitbull) and I know what makes them tick!

With reasonable notice, I am available pretty much all day long for dog walks and sits. I can always easily adjust my schedule and am very flexible when it comes to last minute arrangements. No issues moving dates around if my calendar is open. I have a fenced in yard and the house is plenty spacious. My goal is always to provide a safe and comfortable experience for your pet.

About: Well to begin with, I have experience walking numerous dogs since the day I could remember. My love for animals in general is immense, contributing to the positive well being of animals is my passion and being able to focus that into a career is something I would have never imagined simply by making sure dogs go when they need too. It all began by simply watching over my own dog, and then it lead me into walking my neighbors dogs and eventually I took it upon myself to walk others in the neighborhood. The first dogs I took care of was a chunky miniature pincher and a 70 lbs pit bull terrier, I am not prejudice towards animals specifically dogs since they are in my field and I have years of experience with different breeds of all sorts. As I am a new LLC on the rise I am in the midst of obtaining my ARC certifications for the health and general knowledge of animals, considering on a professional level I take this accordingly and not enough dog walking companies supply this for their walkers. Being trustworthy, reliable, respectable, caring and cautious are few of the many traits I carry and endorse for my business in which I believe are critical in the dog walking business. Every dog is unique, just like a person I would not want to disrespect their space and have them catch an unapproachable vibe from me. I like to make sure I build comfort and confidence with the dogs I will work with, considering not many may be comfortable with letting someone unfamiliar walk them, my specialty. Walking dogs for me personally is never something I like to do in a haste, I enjoy in executing my job correctly and efficiently. I make sure every walk is special at times they come back home with a better attitude than the dogs left in. My main goal for the dogs are exercise, safety, fun and making sure they are able to do their business enough. I am a full time dog walker and lifetime animal lover so meeting accommodations for him or her is never a problem. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile hopefully I gain the opportunity and trust of being able to walk your furry child! Taking care of pups is my daily life. I have my own pups so it comes to me naturally. To do what needs to be done to make sure our pups are well taken care of! I do this full time! First of all, i make sure the pup is as comfortable as possible make them feel as if the parents are home. I walked them as many times as possible, keep all their needs up to date & give lots of love.

I will walk them or take them out before I leave if needed. I can give medications or insulin shots if needed. I also have experience with administrating an inhaler to a cat with asthma. I can also take any type of safety precautions if needed such as closing gates, fences, doors and putting away hazardous objects or food.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - North Bergen
Elizabeth was fantastic with our new cats! She took great care of them, showed them lots of love, and they most definitely enjoyed having her visit them while we were away. It was so helpful to see lots of photos since it was our first time leaving them at home. All of us would be glad to have her back!
Angela was literally a godsend! I needed someone to stop by twice a day on very short notice for my two cats, one of whom was recovering from an infection and needed eye drops administered, all right before my week-long vacation. It was a really stressful time for me to be away while one of my cats was sick, but Angela made me feel so much more at ease. She was incredibly caring, reliable, and attentive, and she sent me updates on both of my cats after every visit. Knowing they were being well cared for and getting their medication properly gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I’m so grateful to Angela for taking such wonderful care of my girls, especially on such short notice. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable cat sitter!
We couldn’t be happier with Ruth! My husband and I went away on a long vacation, and knowing that Duchess and Gordo were in her hands gave us so much peace of mind. From the very beginning, she made us feel completely comfortable and reassured. She was always punctual, and after every visit she sent us the sweetest pictures and detailed updates about how our babies were doing. It honestly made our day to see them happy and relaxed while we were so far away. She spent time playing with them, giving them attention, and keeping them company, and we could tell that she genuinely cared about them. Coming home to two happy, well-cared-for cats meant so much to us. We’re incredibly grateful to Ruth for taking such wonderful care of Duchess and Gordo, and we would absolutely trust her with them again. We highly, highly recommend her! ❤️
Although Colin had never done a drop-in visit for us before, he absolutely saved the day when I unexpectedly went into labor and we needed someone to come by and feed our cat that afternoon. He responded immediately that morning and was able to come by just a few hours later. He was so easy to coordinate with and was an absolute lifesaver in a stressful situation. We are so appreciative and would highly recommend him!!
Although Mackenzie had only come to our apartment for one drop-in visit previously, she absolutely saved the day when I unexpectedly went into labor and we needed someone to come by and feed our cat 3x a day for the 3 days we were in the hospital on very short notice. She responded immediately and adjusted her schedule to accommodate us. She also took amazing care of Benny, and I truly don’t know what we would have done without her. We are so appreciative and would highly recommend her!!
Micaela did a wonderful job of taking care of our two cats. She is so knowledgeable and thoughtful about cat care I knew I could entrust them to her care. The cats clearly liked her a lot and she did a great job taking care of the space as well, including cleaning up an unfortunate letterbox spill situation. Overall would highly recommend!
Considering this was our first time hiring a pet sitter, Alexa was very knowledgable and reassuring! She updated us each day on how our baby was and followed instructions/requests with no complaints. I appreciated all the photos we would get after every drop in visit. Highly recommend.
Elise is fantastic! I was away for a week and felt at ease, knowing my cat was under her care. She is ultra responsive, a great communicator, and went above and beyond to make sure my cat was well cared for and loved on. She was also very thoughtful when it comes to tending to other things that needed attention around my apartment (I.e, watering my plants, taking out the trash). Will 1000% be rebooking her in the future.
Yisha did an excellent job watching our two cats! She clearly loves cats and our cats really liked her, even our more shy and sassy boy! Very good communication and she sent so many pictures which made being apart from our kitties feel less distant! Will certainly book again, thank you Yisha!

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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
