“Arina was great with my dogs! She was able all three of them and would highly recommend her for anyone worried about getting a sitter for multiple animals!”
About: I grew up in a neighborhood that had many dogs, and I would always go over to my neighbors’ houses to play with and take care of their fur babies. I currently have a happy 4 year old schnoodle who goes on walks every day and loves to play fetch. Account is run by Jennie! We are available for day and/or night boarding. I work from home three times a week (schedule is flexible, and my mom stays home on the weekends, so your fur baby will receive around the clock care. 😊 We can take the dog on multiple walks a day and we have a 13 pound friendly and happy Schnoodle to keep your dog entertained
About: I’ve been dog walking for about 3 years and have had the opportunity to care for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Over time, I’ve learned that every dog is different, so I always try to approach them calmly and patiently and let them get comfortable with me at their own pace. On my days off, I enjoy spending my free time with dogs, so pet care fits naturally into my schedule. I’m usually available from the morning through the afternoon, anytime before 4 PM. I’m happy to work around your dog’s routine and make sure they get a comfortable and enjoyable walk. 🐶 Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for someone’s pet. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully and take time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and specific needs. During walks, I stay attentive to their surroundings and make sure they are safe and comfortable at all times.
“Jadea, did great with my dog Jax!🐾 He took to her immediately and I can already see we’ll be requesting her services in the future. She followed all of my directions, is communicative and sends pictures 🐾”
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.

“I found that Chloe communicates well, follows instructions, has a good demeanor with my dog and seems sincerely interested in providing him with the best possible care.”
“My dear Adriana. It was a pleasure to count with your services to take care of Scar and Nena. Adriana not only treated my dogs with love but also took care of my home and left it neat and tidy. Looking forward to work with you again since I saw how much love and dedication you put towards our pets.”
“Alix is GREAT! it was my first time leaving somebody else to administer insulin to my cat & i was so nervous but she sent me multiple updates & photos & ensured that all went smoothly. would definitely book her again!”
About: I have fostered a 4 month old poodle for 2 months. I’d say I personally have more experience babysitting than pet sitting but that being said, I have a huge heart for nurturing and caring I am currently working a part time job but my schedule is pretty flexible so I have a lot of time on my hands! My daily/weekly routine just consists of working and hanging out with friends! Unfortunately I can not host pet sitting at my home for my land owner doesn’t allow pets inside, but if I were to work at your home, I would act accordingly with respect!
About: Currently, I have 2 cats - Polka and Gray that I live with and my mom’s dog, Taco. I am great with all animals and specialize in gentle, quiet environments. I am very patient, kind, caring and I make sure that the animals feel comfortable before I interact with them. On the days that I am available, I am very flexible! I will be sure to provide the time and attention they need. Currently, I am available on certain days in the area. I will be very responsive and read all instructions very carefully. I will also be very respectful of neighbors and surrounding areas / animals. I make sure to properly follow the directions to any animals that need my care. I know safety is number 1 priority. I will be attentive and cautious first, providing the care the animals need second. Proper food access and nourishment followed by play is very important.
“We had such a great experience with Philsung! It was our first time booking him, and everything went so smoothly. He was super punctual, very friendly, and followed all of our instructions perfectly. He played with our three cats, sent lots of cute photos and updates, and kept everything clean (including scooping the litter). He’s also really easy to communicate with and made us feel totally at ease while we were away. Our cats clearly liked him too! We’ll definitely book with him again next time — highly recommend!”
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: 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.
“Mya was truly a blessing and the perfect kitty sitter! She was extremely attentive and loving to my two little spoiled cats. She was always on time and spent a lot of quality time with them. They were instantly in love with and felt super comfortable with her. I was away for work at my new job and wanted to fully committed without worrying. She sent many cute pictures and just went above and beyond. Hire her! But not when I need her 😅 (jk) you won’t regret it. ♥️”
“Alyssa was amazing with my cat. She spent good time playing with him, keeping him company and sharing videos and pics with me. It was my first time having a cat-sitter and she made me feel content, knowing my cat was well cared for. I absolutely recommend Alyssa and will request her again in the future!”
About: I have taken care of and played with my own, also neighbors and friends dogs and cats. I am extremely reliable and energetic.

About: Dear parent(s), I thank you for considering me to look after your puppy. In the following short paragraphs you will read a little bit about me and my love for nature. SERVICE: I cater to those parents who need either a "once in a while" (but can be frequent) and/or a "last minute" sitting/walking care. I update my Rover availability based on my regular job's schedule to date to provide you a better service. ME: My love and passion for puppies began at a very young age. Growing up, I was blessed with having at least one dog in the household. During my high school years, I worked at a parrot shop located in Edgewater. There, I cared for baby parrots by handfeeding them their formula, which I prepared myself. I also kept a health chart on many baby parrots. Adults parrots were also present and cared for. My love and respect for animals has only increased through the years. Life has us all working so much that it takes us away from what we would rather do, spend time with our pets. Your dog will be cared for and looked after when you need to attend other matters. I have cared for dogs in the past, small and large (Saint Bernard the largest). I cannot pet sit in my home, but I can come to yours, though most of the time I will be out with him/her. So next time your puppy needs love and care when you need to be elsewhere, book me. I will make sure to fill that void your absence will leave, so the time he/she misses you will be less. Though I love dogs very much, I can be firm when needed. If there are any special requirements, please let me know. A. If your dog is shy, I will make sure he/she is not overwhelmed by other dogs or even humans. B. If he/she is hyper, to avoid kids being frightened. C. Do you prefer that your dog does not visit dog parks, or at least when they are not that busy? etc. I am currently a Real Estate Agent. My main working days are the weekends for open houses. This provides me with the freedom to care for your pet during the week, which is when most doggies are home-alone, but not anymore if I have a say in the matter. Building regulations and lack of space have prevented me from such joy. While I cannot pet sit at my home, I can take your dog outdoors. I try and stay physically active, so your dog will be walking and playing.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Palisades Park is $25
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Palisades Park
Sparky is our first fur baby, and for years we relied on a trusted neighbor whenever we were away. When our neighbor recently moved, we were honestly stressed about the thought of finding someone we can trust. After interviewing several candidates across different platforms, we chose Alexa. Not only did she have great experience with her own cats and dogs, but Sparky took an immediate liking to her the very first time they met. Alexa absolutely delivered. She listened carefully to every detail we shared and gave Sparky wonderful care and attention. She is incredibly thoughtful and proactive, too—when Sparky coughed up a hairball on our sofa, she cleaned it right up before we even knew about it. We loved the regular photo updates while we were away, and coming home after two weeks to a happy, healthy Sparky greeting us with a resounding meow meant the world. Thank you, Alexa! We will definitely be reaching out again for future trip.
Jenny was absolute perfection, following every single detail of our care instructions without missing a beat. She kept us constantly in the loop with helpful updates and pictures so we always knew how our cats were doing. When unexpected changes arose with our cats' needs, she accommodated our last-minute extra requests. Knowing they were in such attentive hands made being away completely stress-free!
Amanda as always is reliable to not only take care of our cat but ensure we are up to date on how she's doing, behaving, etc. Great communication and flexible when our plans shift. She is our go to cat sitter and we feel reassured she'll take close care of our cat when we are out of town.
Jenny took amazing care of my two cats, Millie and Annie. She made sure all their needs were met and kept me up to date on everything including hairballs and a day my more finicky girl had a so-so appetite. She also made sure they got pets and play, took tons of great pics, and left things looking great for when we returned home! I always stress leaving my girls to go away- with Jenny I’ve had the best peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. Absolute recommend!
She is very kind to our cats and they love her. She has no problems, giving them their insulin. She is very thorough and takes out the litter and the garbage when needed. I am so happy that we found her. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter for their babies.
Carolina was very polite, sweet, and communicative. When she experienced a commute delay on day one, she was proactive about keeping us updated with frequent ETAs. She was very gentle and clearly cares about animals, though her play style leans more toward calm affection and casual rather than the high-intensity hunting play that our high-drive cat needs. She made a good effort and would be a wonderful match for calmer, affectionate, or senior pets looking for gentle company.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
