About: He cuidado perros de diferentes tamaños y personalidades durante muchos años. Tengo experiencia con perros propios y también cuidando las mascotas de familiares, amigos y vecinos. Soy una persona responsable, paciente, cariñosa y muy atenta a sus necesidades. Me gusta que los perros se sientan seguros, tranquilos y acompañados mientras están bajo mi cuidado. Trabajo por cuenta propia y tengo un horario bastante flexible, lo que me permite dedicar tiempo al cuidado de las mascotas. Puedo organizar mi día para realizar paseos, visitas y darles la atención y compañía que necesiten. Siempre sigo cuidadosamente las instrucciones de cada dueño y respeto la rutina de su mascota. Me aseguro de mantener puertas y correas seguras, supervisarlos durante los paseos y tratarlos con paciencia, cariño y mucha responsabilidad.

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. ❤

About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely love dogs and have had them as part of my family ever since I was a kid. Caring for dogs has always come naturally to me, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I understand that each dog has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I also provide enjoyable, engaging walks tailored to each dog’s energy level and needs, making sure they get the exercise, attention, and fun they deserve. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring, reliable hands. I have a pretty flexible day job, which allows me to easily fit walks, drop-in visits, and pet care into my daily and weekly routine. Because of that flexibility, I’m also available for pet sitting when needed and can provide reliable care and attention throughout the day. When caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. I am very thorough and make sure each pet has everything they need, including food, water, exercise, comfort, and companionship. I pay close attention to their routines and individual needs, and I always aim to keep them happy, safe, and well cared for. I would apply the same level of care, responsibility, and attentiveness to my client’s pets as I do with my own.

Loretta is amazing! I will definitely recommend her! She was watching after my two cats when I was away for 10 days. During the meet-and-greet Loretta was asking a lot of questions and paid close attention to my cats’ behavior. She immediately made me feel comfortable leaving my kitties with her:) She responds right away to messages and she is super professional. She kept me updated every day, sending tons of cute pictures and videos, she fed my cats, cleaned after them, brushed them, played with them and even brought them new toys:) I will definitely book Loretta next time I’m out of town! Thank you, Loretta!

About: I am very reliable, punctual, trustworthy, and flexible! I love dogs, but never had to chance to have one since I grew up with a mom being terrified of dogs. However, that didn't stop me from spending time with dogs and animals outside of my home. I have had some experience volunteering at the local animal shelter in college and have done multiple dog sittings for my friends and neighbors. I already enjoy walking around the city and would love to have your pupper around for additional company! I would love to have the opportunity to care for and provide some love to your pup and keep them happy! I am also currently a PAWS Volunteer in Philly for both cats and dogs. I also can petsit cats too! I will follow all instructions and will adhere to any specific requests you may have for your pet! If I am scheduled off that day, I have the entire day to take care of your pet. Whether it's stopping by the place to change your cat's litter, or walking your dog, I am pretty flexible on the days that I am available. Safety is my number one priority for your pet. I will make sure to adhere to any specific instructions you may have, whether it's keeping your dog away from other dogs, or ensuring your home is appropriately locked up after my visit.

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.

About: As a lifelong dog owner and dedicated pet lover, I bring years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. Having raised and cared for my own dogs throughout my life, I fully understand the deep responsibility and attention to detail required to keep a pet healthy, safe, and happy. In addition to caring for my own pets, I am the go-to dog sitter for my friends, family, and neighbors. Whether it’s staying over for multi-day house sitting, providing midday check-ins, or leading energetic daily walks, I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. I am experienced with maintaining precise feeding schedules, administering medications, reinforcing basic training, and giving plenty of play time and belly rubs. When your dog is with me, you can expect open communication, regular photo updates, and complete peace of mind knowing your pup is in caring, trustworthy hands I work from home which means my schedule is flexible! I can help out in between meetings and work with a dogs needs as long as I know ahead of time. If it is okay with you, I also can work from your house and even bring my dog (if your dog is friendly) to spend extra time with the pup! Leash & Apartment Safety: Residing in an apartment means I am highly attentive during on-leash neighborhood walks, always keeping a firm grip, staying alert to surrounding distractions, and ensuring secure building entries and exits. Off-Leash & Trail Expertise: I regularly take my own well-trained dog to off-leash dog parks and hiking trails for exercise. While I only keep dogs off-leash with explicit owner permission, I am skilled at managing energy and maintaining control in open environments.

About: Hi! I have been an animal lover my entire life and I love the fact that I can spend my days doing what I love; providing exercise, love, and care for animals! I believe that taking care of animals involves more than a simple check-in or walk. I am always looking for ways to mentally stimulate your pet, provide daily exercise, basic training and giving lots of belly rubs. Honestly, It’s about taking the time to connect with and bond with the pets I have been entrusted to care for. *Sits with me include regular daily updates, regular walks, cuddles, fresh water refill, food and treats (as instructed). On days when the weather is less than ideal (extreme heat, cold or severe rain), we will go out to take care of business and spend the rest of the time indoors playing fetch and cuddling on the couch. **I am committed to providing you with a full-service customer experience** **Your pet's health and well being are my top priority, prior to providing care, I require a meet & greet where we will discuss your pet's needs to customize a plan suitable for your pet. **I take my job as a pet care provider serious and am always looking for ways to expand my knowledge of the Pet Care industry to offer the best care to all my clients (furry and human). Please contact me with any questions or to set up a meet & greet! Have a pawsome day! Betsy

About: Hi there! I’ve always loved animals and am lucky enough to have a cat of my own, Kitty, who has been with me for 6 years! I know how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby, but rest assured, I will love them as if they are my own! Your pet will be in good hands with me and I’m excited for the chance to meet them! Pet care is a priority in my schedule! I am home most of the week and during the day so I’m very flexible on time. I love to stay active so also willing to do frequent walks or play outside with your pet. I have one cat in my home and am very careful with ensuring her safety and health - she is well-maintained and clean (e.g., brushing, cleaning teeth, trimming nails) and spayed. Just let me know if your pet has any specific needs, allergies, or anything in particular to be aware of! I’m someone who loves to take photos of my cat so if you want frequent updates on your pet, I’m happy to do that too!

About: Hi! I'm Tatiana, a lifelong animal lover with many years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, personalities, and needs. I've been lucky enough to share my life with some very special dogs, including a poodle who lived an incredible 21 years and, most recently, my beloved Boston Terrier, Skye. Skye was deaf, and caring for her gave me years of experience with alternative communication and dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I recently lost her to cancer, and while I miss having my own little companion tremendously, I'd love the opportunity to give some of that same care and affection to other dogs. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages and genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog's individual personality and routine. I'm an avid walker, so I'm happy to accommodate dogs who love getting their steps in, but I'm equally happy spending time with senior or lower-energy pups who prefer a slower pace and plenty of companionship. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I'll always treat your dog and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I'm attentive, patient, dependable, and happy to follow detailed instructions regarding feeding, walks, routines, medications, or any other individual needs. I live in Bergen County, am very close to NYC, have reliable transportation, and am happy to provide regular updates and photos while your pet is in my care. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I work from home full time, therefore I am available during all day/night hours during the week. It is very easy to make a schedule to accommodate you! For weekend requests, please reach out at least 24-48 hours ahead for availability confirmation. I can happily provide pet care on weekends as well, please let me know ahead of time please to ensure my schedule is cleared out for your furry friend! A brief conversation regarding your pets is preferred prior to initial visit to ensure we are covering pets needs and your expectations. Your pet will be treated like my own. They are family members, and deserve nothing less. Photo and text updates will be provided throughout my time with them. Please note I am not able to provide boarding in my home due to pet restrictions in my building, but I would be happy to pet sit at your home during the day/overnight/vacations!

Sam is the best! My two boys are getting to be in their senior years and are very different. Jimmy is on the bigger side around 40 pounds and rambunctious and Dwight is on the smaller side around 25 pounds and pretty lazy. Sam interacted and loved both boys and was so lovely and attentive on his visits to feed them while we were away on vacation. We are so glad to have found Sam 😌

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Palisades Park

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Palisades Park on Rover is $25.68 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 26,544 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Palisades Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 .

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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Palisades Park. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

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.
