About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud owner of a one-year-old French Bulldog, so I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, patient, and caring to look after your pup. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether it’s going for walks, playtime, or just giving them attention and affection. I have experience walking and caring for other dogs of different sizes and personalities, and I’m comfortable handling energetic pups as well as dogs that prefer a slower pace. I treat every dog like they’re my own and always focus on making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while in my care. As a dog owner myself, I know how important routines, communication, and reliability are. I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise, attention, and care, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to meet your furry friend and help make their day fun, active, and stress-free! I have a flexible schedule and can provide reliable care throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting, and I always make time to give dogs the attention, exercise, and care they need. I’m also happy to work with your dog’s usual routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always make sure pets are supervised, secure, and cared for in a calm and loving environment. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important trust and communication are, so I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages while your pup is with me. Moreover, my home is always clean and dog safe. I’m experienced with crate training, basic training, grooming, and handling dogs with different personalities, and I always treat every dog like family. I also have a friendly one-year-old girl French Bulldog who loves other dogs and can provide companionship and playtime for social pups. I always supervise interactions to make sure every dog feels safe and comfortable.
“Cathy: I want to thank you so much for taking care of Brodie and Shay ! Their few days with you from 5/5/2025-5/8/2025 were amazing. They came home happy and content and loved while I was gone. Your an amazing BABY sitter and so kind. I appreciate all your warmth and care when I was away. They will be back to you the next time I am out of Town. YOU are the best! Thank you so much, again,”
“Once again we were able to enjoy our time out of town because Kate and Juan were so caring about our quiet, sweet dog. Boarding facilities don’t give dogs constant closeness to a kind human, so having Ferris stay in their loving home is essential to us.”
“Demetra was amazing!! We loved their family and our pug was so happy! He had such a great time with them and they took such good care of him! I am looking forward to bringing him over again!”
“Rokiea took very good care of Nala and kept us well updated throughout her stay. Nala loved spending time in the yard and seemed to be calm in their mellow neighborhood. I would definitely contact Rokiea again for future stays.”
About: With 5 years of hands on experience working with dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments, I’m dedicated to helping dogs become confident, well mannered companions. I also hold a degree in K9 Training and Management from SUNY Cobleskill giving me both the practical experience and professional education to provide structured, effective, and personalized care. Pet care is a part of my everyday life. Outside of work, I continue to dedicate my time to dog training and boarding. I am completely available Friday and Saturday and am available every other day after 6pm! Because I have a supportive family that helps with my boarding program, each dog is consistently taken outside for potty breaks, exercise, and fresh air throughout the day. Dogs staying in my home have access to a fully fenced backyard where they can safely go out for potty breaks, exercise, and supervised play. Inside, I have a finished basement that provides a clean, comfortable, and climate-controlled space for dogs to relax, train, and rest. Every dog follows a structured routine that includes regular outdoor breaks, feeding according to the owner’s schedule, enrichment, and plenty of individual attention. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment where every dog feels at home.
“Cynthia did an amazing job looking after my nervous girl while I was gone. I was blown away to see my usually worried pup wagging her tail and sitting by Cynthia’s side when I came to get her! I’m super thankful she made my Elsa feel comfy and safe during her stay.”
“Our experience with Mary was EXCELLENT. We had to leave Royal with her for the first time while on vacation because our regular dog sitter was unavailable. Of course we were anxious. Well, she made us feel very safe leaving Royal. She sent us regular updates. She kept him on his feeding and walking schedules. Most of all, Royal was HAPPY. She was caring and you can tell she genuinely loves dogs, not just sits for the money. I will be using Mary in the future and if anyone needs an EXCEPTIONAL dog sitter do not hesitate to use Mary. Your dog will be on vacation while you are too!. I highly recommend her without reservation.”
“Robert was the best!!! We will definitely send our Suki there again. He was super helpful and flexible- which was a huge relief because of the massive snow storm that snarled our plans. So glad to have found a reliable sitter for our doggie.”
“Tracy and his family were wonderful hosts for our Husky. They are very thoughtful and caring. They made every effort to make JJ comfortable in their home, and he was living his best life in their backyard. It was clear from the start that JJ was in good hands!”
“Anat was great with Bodi. He’s a puppy and she was super responsive, attentive to his needs, and followed my instructions to a tee. He had fun play dates and we received lots of fun videos and pictures.”
“Essence is the best! I know my dogs are in great hands with her. She is always flexible with us, she sends us updates without us having to ask, my dogs are always happy when they leave her place. She is the best and I am so grateful for her. Xoxo thank you Essence.”
“Cindy and her family were so easy to work with and took great care of Pippa while I was away for a few days. She provided consistent updates and was very flexible on scheduling drop off/pickup. Pippa came home happy and tired!”
“We appreciate Danae so much for watching our dog Chanel. She makes this process so stress free and easy! She even sends daily photos and videos. I don’t know what we would do with her! Thanks Danae!”
“Ken and Irene are great! This is the first time we left our golden doodle Kobe with them. We were a bit worried about Kobe feeling anxious, but he was perfectly fine and happy. They took great care of him, sent daily pics and updates. Kobe had a great time staying with Ken and Irene. He will definitely be back!”
“Thanks for another great stay for Teddy! He feels so welcome and loved in your home, it has become his second home! He truly loves being with your family and we love being able to travel knowing he is so well taken care of!”
“Andrea cared for our pup for eight nights. It was the first time our pup was away from us so we were super anxious. Andrea was patient, responsive, sent photos and videos throughout his stay and even asked for our preferences on various things. She made it possible for us to relax while we were away. Thank you so much!”

Sunny was absolutely wonderful! She is incredibly sweet, kind, and always has such a positive attitude. Communication was excellent from start to finish—she responded quickly to every message and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was also very thoughtful and accommodating when my plans changed, and I truly appreciated her flexibility and understanding. Everything went smoothly, and I had zero issues throughout the entire booking. I could tell she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I wouldn't hesitate to book with Sunny again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Our dog had such a wonderful stay! We received lots of photo updates throughout the visit, which gave us so much peace of mind. In every picture, our dog looked so happy and had the biggest smile. It was clear that they were well cared for and having a great time. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!
Matthew and Christianna are WONDERFUL sitters. They are a caring, kind and empathetic couple who truly love pets. Matthew and Christianna treated our 2 1/2 year old malshi, Chloe, as their own. During our vacation, we received many pics of Chloe relaxed and happy in their home. They made sure that Chloe ate properly, had enough exercise and was entertained by their two little ones who were very kind to her. We HIGHLY recommend Matthew and Christianna as sitters. We will definitely ask them to care for Chloe when we are away and will feel relaxed and appreciative in the knowledge that she is loved and cared for!
Lee K was great with my dog Bodi. Knowing that she was familiar with looking after senior dogs and giving medication made me feel comfortable using her pet sitting services. She took great care of Bodi, helping him as needed & provided me with many photos & videos so that I could see how he was doing while he was staying at her home. Upon picking him up I could tell he had a relaxing stay and was comfortable within her home and around her other dogs. We are looking forward to using Lee K again in the future!
My dog spent 21 days in Yuchen’s house, and he was very happy with Yuchen’s family and her dog. Yuchen sent me pictures and videos everyday: my dog running in her large backyard, sleeping on the comfortable couch…. Yuchen is kind and responsible, highly recommended!
Joanne goes above and beyond for boarding! We did a meet and greet beforehand, she helped communicate what to expect when leaving our pup for the first time and communicated a lot while we were gone which helped calm our nerves. Marshall was in great hands and couldn’t have asked for a better person to leave him with. We would highly recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Northvale on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 14,001 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Northvale. About 88% of Northvale sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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.
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.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
