About: While I’ve never had a cat or dog (parental allergies), I’ve always loved them! My neighbors had cats and dogs so growing up I spent a lot of time around them and helped take care of them. I especially enjoy long walks :) I work from home two days a week so my schedule is pretty flexible. I would love to spend my free time with furry friends! Your pets’ safety and comfort are my top priorities! I’ll be attentive to your pets’ needs and ensure they always feel happy, safe, and loved.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for practically all of my life. My family and friends would ask me to take care of or walk their pets and I’d always be there when they needed. I’m also used to taking care of puppies and kitties and enjoyed it no matter how tiring it may have been. My schedule right now is completely free other than going to school and so I’ll always have time to be able to walk a dog or take care of them. In my clients home if I’m pet sitting I’ll make sure I ask where their food is, where I take their water from and if there’s anything in their house that is specifically for their pet and remember that spot for future uses.
About: I’ve had all sorts of pets since I was a little girl. Mostly dogs and cats in my adult years. I haven’t gotten a new dog since I had to say goodbye to my last furry friend. Now I want to have part time pets to love I’m a photographer and a design coordinator who works outside my home a few weeks a year and spends most time home editing photos, or playing with my two grandsons. I have a nice fenced in yard and a beautiful park across the street. I live in a quiet neighborhood with nice streets for walks. There is also a dog park close by.

I know basic training skills to the extent of what the internet has taught me, but when it comes to the care of dogs, I have a full lifetime's experience. I work full time, however I love animals and am more than happy to drop in, or even walk after. I am also capable of being home full time if there is a boarding request If you ask me to take your baby for a few days in my home, with your permission I’d be more then happy to take them on a nice long walk or hike too! I have a dog of my own, an Aussiedoodle who loves everyone and everything. So just keep that in mind when booking with me!
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have always had a deep love and connection with them. While I don’t currently own a dog, I regularly care for my cousin’s dog here in New Jersey — walking, feeding, and keeping him company. I’m attentive, responsible, and genuinely passionate about animals. Your furry friend will feel right at home with me! I currently work as a secretary from 12pm to 5pm on weekdays, so I’m available for dog walking and drop-in visits in the mornings before noon and after 5pm on weekdays. I have more flexibility on weekends and can accommodate house sitting when needed! Your pet’s safety is my top priority. Since I offer walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully. I’m punctual, communicative, and will send regular photo updates throughout every visit so you always know your pup is happy and safe!

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and attentive pet lover with 6 years of experience as a dedicated dog mom. I understand how important it is to know your pets and home are being cared for by someone responsible, patient, and genuinely loving. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, giving lots of attention, and keeping pets calm and comfortable while you’re away. I also take pride in keeping homes clean, secure, and well cared for during house sits. I’ll treat your pets like family and your home with respect and care!

About: I’ve been taking care of my dog since she was a tiny puppy, and I treat her like my own little child. I do the same for other people’s pets too - I love to give them food, give them some cuddles, and make sure they’re happy. And always remember to give your furry friend a special treat! As a remote worker, I find flexibility in my work schedule. I enjoy incorporating outdoor walks into my daily routine, which allows me to connect with nature and exercise while having the flexibility to do so with my dog. Through play, companionship, and nourishment. Will stay by the dog and keep the place organized and clean so it is a fair space for the house and the dogs
“Amy is the most thorough, trustworthy, and reliable pet sitter I could imagine! I've never used Rover before and have a 7 month old kitten- Amy was incredible this last week for us, even through new years eve and new years day. She was so considerate and came before booking twice to meet peanut, once when we first booked and again a few weeks later before we left for our trip. She took pictures every day and sent it to us, which made my day. In the pictures I can tell my cat loves her and she came out when shes usually afraid of people. I'm so glad we found Amy and I cannot recommend her enough. ❤”
“Michelle has been fantastic. My dog is a rescue and often takes a bit of time to warm up to new people. Michelle was so patient with him and continues to provide the highest level of care for him. Michelle is very responsive and always communicates before and after the visit. I’d highly recommend Michelle to help care for your pets!”
“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!”
“Emily was absolutely wonderful with Brady! She was reliable, caring, and truly went above and beyond while watching him. She provided thoughtful updates and photos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Brady was happy, comfortable, and genuinely well cared for the entire time. Knowing he was treated with so much love and attention made all the difference. I highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and professional pet sitter.”
“Our young dog has separation anxiety, she screams and jumps at the door the entire time when we leave her alone. I'm so thankful we found Amanda so that we could have an evening out without worrying about what was happening at home. We loved getting updates and photos throughout the evening. The experience exceeded our expectations and we will use her again in the future.”
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Palisades Park is $25

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. 🙏

Tatiana goes above and beyond and is by far the best pet sitter/walker Penny has ever had. She is reliable, communicative, responsible, patient, and so kind. She takes Penny for long and scenic walks, plays fetch with her, and takes time to sit with her and give her plenty of pets and treats. I would recommend her to anyone!
Mariah was nothing but amazing with my 2 dogs! I felt so comfortable leaving her to care for them as I was on vacation. She’s great at communicating and sends updates with cute pictures of my dogs. I would highly recommend Mariah and will be using her in the future.
Meredith was amazing with my two dogs, Nico and Bandit! She went above and beyond by doing a meet and greet ahead of time and kept me updated with lots of videos and messages, which really helped ease my anxiety while I was working long shifts. My dogs can be a bit of a handful, and she handled them with so much care and patience. She even took the time to clean up a couple of accidents, which I really appreciated. I came home to happy, well-cared-for pups. I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her!
Kathryn is just incredible! She is thorough and knowledgeable. She is very sweet and loving with my baby girl, and my dog took to her immediately. She is always met with tail wags and wiggles. Kathryn is the best person to look after your fur baby, she treats my girl with so much love and kindness!
This is our first time using Rover and we felt so lucky that we found Karen. Karen takes care of our pets not only with full of experience and patience, but also with love and sentiment. She’s always so considerate, thoughtful and responsive and she gets along with both of our pets so well just after a couple of visits. We trust her 100% with our pets and will definitely rebook with her next time we are out of town. I highly recommend Karen.
Rachel is an amazing sitter, she braved the elements through this snowstorm to take care of Petey and I couldn’t be more grateful. She also takes the initiative to determine what Petey needs and will walk him more than once if necessary. She lets me know that she cleaned Petey’s bowls before feeding and giving him fresh water, things that are important to me, I feel better knowing that someone is giving him the same care I would. I’m thankful to have Rachel as a person I can contact when I need help with Petey.
Philsung went above and beyond to take care of Petey. During this snowstorm, he walked the rest of the way to my apartment when his car got stuck. When you’re not able to be there with your dog, it’s a terrible feeling, I was so worried Philsung would not be able to make it there but he did. That’s reliability and dedication and a true love for animals. He is an excellent sitter.
Kate is incredibly reliable and takes excellent care of our dog, Frankie. She is always on time, keeps us informed, leaves detailed notes about the visit, and is very gentle and patient with Frankie (who is an anxious dog). We always feel confident entrusting Frankie with Kate.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Palisades Park stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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 Palisades Park 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.
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 .

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.
To find sitters in Palisades Park with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
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.
