“Nicole is the most caring, kind, respectful, and sweet dog sitter ever. She sends photos of the dogs and communicates all day! She makes it so much easier to leave our 2 mini dachshund puppies at home while we are at work knowing we have an amazing person taking care of them. Nicole goes above and beyond to provide the best care to our babies and we will absolutely be using her again for dog/ house sitting. She is the very best of the best!”
About: As a fellow pet owner I know that pets are more than just pets but are a part of the family- they deserve just as much care and attention as kids :) ! My goal as a sitter/walker is to help you and your pet comfortable, happy, & stress free!! I’ve cared for a range of different personalities , from 120lb stubborn akitas to action packed pitts to talkative little dox’s. I am ready for any thing and willing to work to ensure a great experience for you and your furry companions 💪. From going on runs, to playing fetch, to keeping them from tearing up your furniture— I got your back! ***Notable experience includes my work in childcare and life guarding—where safety, quick thinking, and attention to detail are heavily applied skills of mine! I am currently looking to dorm at Rutgers towards mid-January. But until then my schedule is completely free aside from helping with childcare every so often which should not interfere with my availability at all as it’s very flexible. Respect is the most important part to me about care. This means maintaining your pet’s routine (feeding, medication and walks), close supervision, safety precautions on walks and in the house, cleanliness, and providing genuine loving care. All to ensure the best health, safety, and happiness of you and your pet! :) Whether at my home or yours, what you and your pet need come first! I also send updates, pictures, and videos so you always know what your furry little (or not so little) friend is up to!
“Charlie was great! Extremely responsive and receptive with my Puppy, kept us up to date and was a great experience to have dog sittint especially given the tight turnaround. If the opportunity was required I wouldn’t hesitate to use her services again”
About: Long-term dog walker with years of experience and a big heart for animals 🐾 I’m gentle, patient, and love building trust with every pup. Whether your dog wants a slow sniffy stroll or a happy adventure, I’ll treat them like my own 💕🐕 I’m currently working part time. I get constant breaks, I would be able to walk any nearby neighbor dogs in specific time frames for you I care for pets as if they were my own—gently, patiently, and with lots of love. In my client’s home, I follow their routine closely so pets feel safe and comfortable in their familiar space. This includes feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection.
“Aidan was so caring and professional when it came to my pitbull mix, Base, sending plenty of pictures. I came home to a happy, healthy boy. Aidan was also so sweet to me and respectful of the space he was staying in. As we needed a last minute sitter, I am so so grateful that he was available and really came through. I look forward to hiring him again in the future.”
“Cecilia was the best! She showed lots of patience with my dog, Jojo, and she never hesitated to ask questions. I also really appreciate how often Cecilia would communicate via text. Good updates and even better pictures!”
“Dana is top notch! She took such amazing care of my 3month old puppy. She sent videos and pictures often, and I was able to enjoy my day out without a care. I've already rebooked her, and look forward to working with her many times again in the future. She's trustworthy, honest, and gracious. Highly recommend!”
“Alexander did a great job caring for my two elderly pets. He made sure my cat got his medicine and my dog went out frequently and ate his food. He was very communicative and responded quickly. Overall, I’m very satisfied and will definitely use him again if needed.”
About: I am an ER Nurse and travel Nurse who LOVES pets. I thought care for dogs would be the perfect way to do a side job while doing something I love. I grew up playing with my cousin’s dog. I’ve taken care of my family’s dog for about 3 years and then took care of my roommates dog for 2 years. I fed the dogs, took them potty, played with them, and took them for walks. I’ve also helped them learn tricks. I am energetic and caring when taking care of these dogs. I always make sure they feel comfortable in the living space and make sure they are getting enough physical activity throughout the day. I love playing with them and making them feel at home. I have a BIG fenced backyard where they can run and play.
About: I currently work at one of the top-rated doggy daycares in Elmwood Park, where I’ve had the opportunity to gain hands-on experience caring for dogs of all different personalities, sizes, and needs. I’ve always had a genuine love for dogs and have grown up around them my entire life, learning how to care for them with patience, attentiveness, and compassion. Working with dogs is something that comes naturally to me, and I truly enjoy creating a safe, happy, and comfortable environment where every dog feels loved and cared for. I work morning shifts five days a week, typically from 6 AM to 1 PM, which leaves my afternoons and evenings open for pet care. My days off vary each week, but I’m flexible and love dedicating my free time to caring for animals. I’m available whenever I’m not working and will always make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, love, and care. 🐾 I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and completely at home. My own pets are my spoiled babies, and I make sure they have everything they need to live their happiest lives from plenty of playtime and attention to regular meals, potty breaks, and the freedom to be their silly, lovable selves. I create a calm, caring environment where pets can feel comfortable, be themselves, and know they’re in loving hands. When caring for someone else’s pet, I treat them with that same patience, affection, and care I would want for my own.
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life! Growing up, I had all kinds of pets. Today, my furry best friend is Twix, my playful male Yorkie, who keeps me smiling every day. Since I work from home, your pet will receive plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. I also live just minutes from the George Washington Bridge and Newark Liberty International Airport, making drop-offs and pickups especially convenient for travelers. Im also close to a beautiful park and walking trails, providing the perfect setting for long walks, exercise, playtime, and lots of fresh air. Whether your pet loves adventures outdoors or relaxing with plenty of cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is a consistent part of my daily routine. I am able to feed and walk my pets at set times, and build in play breaks into my weekly schedule. I’m available for home visits, extended stays, drop-ins, walks, and in-home care as needed. I’m flexible and happy to work with each pet’s individual routine and needs.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Oradell
Yvette did an excellent job. She came over twice before we left and Eliza really took to her. While we were away, Yvette kept in contact with us regularly, sending us pictures and photos. Eliza was very happy with her and we felt extremely comfortable leaving Eliza with her. We would definitely use her again!!
Ori watched our dog April for 4 days and he was amazing! He was very communicative and took such good care of April and the house while we were away. From daily walks to spending time outside and cuddling on the couch, we knew our energetic girl was in the best hands. Thank you Ori!!
Jacob was amazing! From the first moment he established a great rapport with our 5 year old Golden Retriever Maximus and treated him with kindness and love. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Our dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for throughout the entire stay. We received regular updates, photos, and excellent communication, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It’s obvious he genuinely loves animals and treats them like family. We came home to a healthy, happy pup, and we booked the next house sit right away. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter.
Above all, trustworthy. She genuinely loves dogs. That much is obvious in how she cares for our puppies. But on top of that, Alessandra emanates trust. It’s hard to find someone that’s worthy of being left alone in your home alone with your furry family members. This is the first time we have felt comfortable with someone.
Amanda took exceptional care of our 17½-year-old dog, who requires very specialized care and definitely isn’t easy. From the moment we left, she provided compassionate, attentive care and kept us updated with thoughtful texts and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. When we returned home, our dog was happy, comfortable, and clearly very well cared for. On top of that, our house was immaculate. We are beyond appreciative of Amanda’s kindness, professionalism, and dedication. It’s not easy to find someone you can fully trust with an elderly pet, and we are so grateful to have found her. Highly recommend!
Jill was amazing! We couldn’t have asked for someone better to watch Teddy and Frankie. Teddy had plenty of walks and play time and Frankie even came out to spend time with Jill (and she’s not normally friendly). She made us feel less stressed on our trip because our pets were being well taken care of.
Nicole is the most caring, kind, respectful, and sweet dog sitter ever. She sends photos of the dogs and communicates all day! She makes it so much easier to leave our 2 mini dachshund puppies at home while we are at work knowing we have an amazing person taking care of them. Nicole goes above and beyond to provide the best care to our babies and we will absolutely be using her again for dog/ house sitting. She is the very best of the best!

FAQs for House Sitting - Oradell
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 18,855 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Oradell. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Oradell walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Oradell maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Oradell 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!
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
