About: I am an army veteran that has spent his recent years caring for dogs both of owners and strays and have loved the experience. Pets provide a joy and fulfillment that I can find nowhere else. I believe that pets deserve more than just responsible attention and a loving home, they deserve to be treated with utmost dignity and should also have a learning experience in the process. I have become well versed in training of dogs and would be more than happy to either review or even instill basic training skills. Pets and dogs in particular have become a necessary factor of my own personal happiness. It would be my honor and privilege to be able to provide a special care for a special little friend. I'm a lifelong dog lover, and caring for pets fits seamlessly into my daily routine. Since I'm home 24/7, your dog will never be left alone for long and will get all the attention, love, and companionship they need. I know how hard it can be to leave your furry family member behind, so my goal is to give you peace of mind while your pup enjoys a happy, comfortable stay. I'll gladly send photo and video updates so you can see how much fun they're having. Your pup will have plenty of room to play in my fully fenced backyard, with a dog door so they can head in and out whenever they like. I work from home and I'm here all day, so your dog won't be left alone for long stretches. I'm available 24/7, so whether you need daytime drop-ins, overnight stays, or extended boarding, I can give your dog consistent attention and care while you're away.

“Ruth has been walking both of my dogs for the last couple of weeks and she’s been such a help to me and my family! She’s very punctual, has excellent communication, and is super reliable. Highly recommend!”
“Diane was such a friendly and communicative walker. She walked my 10 month old golden retriever puppy while I was away for a business trip. She walked him twice a day and left comments every single time and sent me pictures . I would definitely be using her services again and highly recommend her ?”

About: I’ve had animals all my life including cats, dogs, and I had a rabbit once. I’ve helped take care of sick dogs and cats, and have taken care of puppies and kittens. I was also apart of my animal club in high school where I got to donate to animal shelters and interacted with animals in that setting. I have a flexible schedule, so pet care can easily be a regular part of my day and week. I really enjoy spending time with animals and am happy to structure my routine around their needs, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company. I want every pet in my care to feel comfortable, loved, and well taken care of while their family is away. I care for every pet as if they were my own! I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while sticking to their normal routine as much as possible. I’m happy to follow any feeding, walking, medication, playtime, or bedtime instructions you provide. I also keep a close eye on their behavior and make sure their space stays clean and comfortable. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely at ease.

From cozy naps and meals to fun walks and playtime with our sweet pup Archie, I’ll ensure they feel safe, loved, and as close to home as possible while you’re away. My goal is to make their stay comforting, fun, and full of care until their favorite humans return!
“Rivera is amazing with my Mango—He felt comfortable and ran into her arms on the very first meet! He seems to anticipate & enjoy each walk and comes back an exhausted pup. I highly recommend Rivera...your pup won’t be disappointed ?”
About: We are a husband and wife team so you’re getting 2 sitters for the price of 1! I’ve had all sorts of pets from fish, to reptiles, amphibians, rodents, dogs, cats, and marsupials. I am a life long animal lover and have owned all different breeds of dogs including a few of the more“stubborn” breeds such as a husky, a chow/Doberman mix, and a pitbull, so I am willing and able to care for breeds with strong personalities. I have also had plenty of experience with little dogs, such as my 16 year old chihuahua and my moms Pomeranian, so I am also well versed in dealing with DIVAS! I have watched MANY puppies and worked on their leash skills, basic commands, and I think just being around other dogs really helps puppies figure out what is acceptable, they learn so much from one another. I have also had 2 dogs who lived to be at least 16 years old so I know how to work with seniors and have systems for carrying larger old dogs up/down our outside steps when they need to go potty. I am also well versed and comfortable with administering oral medication. I own a two family home (side by side units) and my unit is a two floor three bedroom home. I have an unfenced yard and a large front porch so on a leash your pet can spend plenty of time outside. This is my full time job so I am home majority of the time and my husband works as a coach in the evenings. So basically, there is only ever about an hour where dogs are left alone at home. During this time they will either be in crates of gated areas to ensure they’re not able to get into any trouble. Typically my 11 year old daughter is also home with them during that hour but for everyone’s safety she doesn’t let them out of their respective crates or gated areas when she is home alone. We have a large un fenced yard and our home is two floors. We try to keep the dogs confined to the first floor all day, so that we can have an eye on them at all times. If certain dogs require sleeping with us, then those dogs are brought upstairs at night to our bedroom. We separate them for feeding times, either with gates, playpens, or crates. That’s just an extra precaution so no fights over food could ever occur. We can separate the first floor into 3 sections, living room, dining room, and kitchen, if necessary. We also have a gate up on the porch so that the dogs can safely hang out outside when the weather permits. Always supervised and we also have cameras.
About: I have always been involved in pet care in my home for over 15 years. I have had experience with elderly dogs and cats of my own. I have pet-sitted in my neighborhood for puppies and for breeds different from my own dogs. I will use my energy to play with your pet and hopefully decrease their energy. I am starting graduate school and I have a flexible schedule and availability for stop-ins during the day or bringing study materials to a client’s home. My yard is fenced in and I can take dogs for a walk in Brookdale Park nearby. I will administer medicine and play with dogs and provide them with a cuddly environment.
About: I love animals so much that neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to take care of there pets while away, I find it fun and pleasing to work with animals I’m currently a college student and need some side money, so I have time to work all day! I’m available almost everyday! I am also very reliable and easy to work with! I have a fenced yard and a lovely home to relax in! I will also keep them occupied while they are away from there owners!
“I could not recommend Carly enough! My dog had surgery and I was incredibly anxious to leave him with anyone, but I had to look around on Rover as he had to be supervised post-surgery while I went to work. Right from meeting her, both my dog and I loved her! She is so caring, accommodating, and communicative. She sent me updates and photos throughout the day. I honestly can’t wait to book her again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Passaic
We had a great experience with Evan! He was friendly and did a wonderful job with our big, energetic Golden Retriever. Our dog came back happy and exercised, and we really appreciated how reliable and easy to communicate with he was. We’ll definitely be using him again and highly recommend him!
Ashley was GREAT!! She filled in while our regular walker was away for the Labor Day holiday weekend and she was OUTSTANDING! She was very punctual, great with her communication with us and she took outstanding care of our dog. We would DEFINITELY recommend her to anyone and if we are in need again, she will be our go to person!
I cannot recommend Victoria enough! I’ve had my dog Nala for six years, and this was actually the first time I’ve ever gone away and left her in someone else’s care without having a family member or someone I personally know stay with her. I’ve always been extremely nervous about leaving her because Nala can be very reactive and aggressive toward other dogs after being bitten a few years ago, so I don’t trust just anyone with her. From the very beginning, Victoria was so understanding of Nala’s needs and completely respectful of the fact that she can be difficult around other dogs. She handled everything so calmly and confidently, and I felt like Nala was in really good hands. What meant the most to me was that Victoria went above and beyond what I expected. She didn’t just come in, take Nala for a walk, and leave. She spent extra time with her inside, hung out with her, made sure she was comfortable, and gave her the attention and companionship she needed while we were away. You could genuinely tell that she cared about Nala and wasn’t just there to do a job. As someone who has always had a hard time trusting other people with my dog, Victoria gave me something I honestly didn’t think I’d have on vacation: peace of mind. I was able to enjoy my trip without constantly worrying about how Nala was doing, and that meant so much to me. I am so grateful we found Victoria, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, responsible, and genuinely great with dogs. I will absolutely be using her again! Nala loved having her, and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of her. ❤️🐾
Amelia was absolutely wonderful with Bishop! She was available on very short notice, which was such a huge help, and she made the whole experience completely stress-free. She was caring, dependable, and kept us updated, giving us peace of mind knowing Bishop was happy and well looked after. It was clear she treated him like one of her own. We are so thankful for her flexibility, kindness, and excellent care. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Amelia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate dog walker!
I can't say enough about Elizabeth! She was wonderful! I was so worried about finding a dog walker, and she eased my fear. She's definitely confident when it comes to larger breed dogs, the size and look of my dog did not faze her! The initial meet and greet went well! And I think it helped with the relationship between her and my dog.. I'm so relieved that we have someone that we can count on! And someone that my dog likes, and it comfortable to go on walks with! Thanks Elizabeth!! See you next time! 😉
Cynthia has been absolutely wonderful with my stubborn puppy, who took to her from day one. She truly is a dog whisperer! She is patient, caring, and treats my dog as if he were her own. It’s clear how much she loves and cares for my dog, and that gives me complete peace of mind. I highly recommend Cynthia to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dedicated dog walker. The love, attention, and care she provides are truly exceptional.
Natalia was absolutely wonderful with Vali! She was incredibly flexible with scheduling, which made the whole process so easy for me. She took amazing care of him, made sure he got plenty of walks, and kept me updated the entire time with the sweetest photos and messages. It gave me total peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. You can really tell Natalia genuinely loves dogs and treats them like her own. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter, and I will definitely be booking with her again!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Passaic. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Passaic after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker 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.

- 83% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections

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 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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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 walker.
