“Carolina will be the only sitter for my dog from now on. She and her family truly cared for my dog during my family's vacation and i can't thank her enough! They are true dog lover! Thank you, Carolina for your care and service for my dog!!!”
“Christina was absolutely fantastic with our dog, Phire! She went above and beyond, keeping us updated with thoughtful messages with photos that showed how much love and care she provided. Christina took Phire on long walks, ensuring she got plenty of exercise and stimulation. She fed her right on schedule (including her supplement) and made sure she felt completely at home. Phire was so relaxed and happy at Christina’s house—it was clear she was in great hands. Christina’s professionalism, warmth, and dedication made us feel so comfortable leaving Phire with her. We can’t recommend her highly enough!”
“Paola is the ideal dog sitter. She kept me informed Day by day of my dog and along with sending pictures. Communication with Paola was also perfect whenever I needed to reach her. On picking up day my dog was the usual happy dog. Certainly Paola and her family made my dog feel at ease. I recommend Paola and will for sure use her sitting services again.”
About: I have years of experience in the caretaking of animals and I’ve always done it with love, my family and friends always trusted me to care for their pets since I was younger and i’ve always enjoyed it. I love every part of taking care of animals whether its grooming, bathing oral medications administration etc… Animals will always hold a special place in my heart. My schedule is very flexible, I usually stay home and do online school work most of the time, so I’m available really anytime on weekdays and sometimes on weekends. I will care for the pets by making sure they are well fed, kept clean and healthy. I live in a very safe neighborhood with a nice park down the street. I have an animal friendly household with fences outside to ensure that the pets wont wander off.
“This was our first time leaving Hazel & Audrey. Teresa was wonderful and so accommodating to all our puppies needs. She kept us updated on their visit with great pictures that showed they were happy and well taken care of. Her home is a great setup for taking care of dogs- especially Doxies with little legs. It made our family trip more enjoyable knowing our pups were enjoying themselves as well. Thank you Teresa.”
“Tricia was absolutely wonderful with our pup, Lani! This was our first time booking with her, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She clearly has excellent knowledge when it comes to dog introductions and made sure Lani felt comfortable from the start. Her yard is fantastic, spacious, super clean, and thoughtfully designed with a shaded sand pit and a dig zone that Lani loved exploring. We also really appreciated the photo updates throughout the stay! When our flight was unexpectedly canceled, Tricia was incredibly accommodating, even on such short notice. That flexibility meant so much to us. We’re so grateful for her care and would definitely book with her again!”
“I We had a great experience with Yesenia and Manny while Cody stayed with them for 4 days during our trip. It was Cody’s first time boarding at someone else's house, and everything went smoothly. Yesenia and Manny were very attentive and caring, which made us feel completely at ease. They also sent us regular pictures and videos of Cody, so we could see how well he was doing while we were away. We highly recommend them and would definitely trust them again!”
“We left Reggie in Ankita’s care for two weeks while we were abroad. Since then, she’s also been helping us with doggy daycare. She kept us updated throughout the trip, sending regular snaps and videos that really helped ease our nerves. Ankita is an excellent communicator—she’s very careful with the puppies and respectful toward their parents. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for doggy daycare or boarding. Thank you so much, Ankita!”
“Dogs were very well cared for. We received video updates from them daily showing us how our dogs were doing. We will definitely use them again. Highly recommend!”
“We had such a great experience with Juan. This was our first time leaving Teddy with them and Juan made us feel very comfortable. He took great care of Teddy and sent us pictures and updates which we really appreciated while we were away. It was so reassuring to see that Teddy was doing well and being well cared for. We’re very thankful to Juan and would absolutely feel comfortable leaving Teddy with them again.”
“At first I was very skeptical dropping off my dog with special accommodations with a sitter, but Zuleyka made sure my baby was fed and treated right the whole time, and updated us periodically with videos and updates. I will definitely bring my dog back once I need a sitter again.”
“This is the first time I leave my fur baby with Ms. Katherine. My fur baby had the best time and was well cared for. I received picture and video updates throughout the day. I highly recommend and plan to use again. 😊🩵”

“Our puppy stayed with Marcy for a full week this time. It was her second time with Marcy and her family. She was well loved, exercised and cared for. It’s such a comfort to know that our puppy is so well cared for when we travel. We appreciate Marcy and her sweet family so much! ❤️”
“Elizabeth and Oleg took such great care of Maia! When I picked her up she was smiley, tired from all the playtime (Maia loves to play and they followed instructions), and so happy. They were so helpful and communicative, I’m already looking to book ahead for November.”
“I couldn't have asked for a better experience with the dog sitters who took care of my two furry companions. Their daily picture updates were a delightful touch that kept me reassured and connected throughout my time away.

Florence was amazing with Enzo! She kept me updated throughout his stay, sent me pictures, and took such great care of him. I felt very comfortable knowing Enzo was in good hands while I was away. He seemed happy and comfortable with her, and I would definitely book with Florence again. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my boy! ❤️🐾
Funda and family took such great care of Summer while we were away for a long weekend. They were super communicative, and kept us updated with pictures and videos every day. Summer had the best time, especially exercising in the big backyard. We’d leave Summer with Funda and family in a heartbeat, and I know she’d be excited to hang with them again too!
I was so happy for my Bulldog Earl to receive such excellent care and also make some new friends with Carolina, her family and their dog Daisy. I was oversees and didn’t have to worry once how Earl was. She updated me daily with a note and pics. I have already used her again and will continue to do so in the near future. I might even see if she wants to set up playdates with her dog and visiting dog pals.
Keisy was wonderful! She kept me up to date everyday with messages and pictures, and she was responsive, friendly and kind. She also accepted my request at the last minute, when my other plans fell through, she was a total lifesaver! I would highly recommend her and will be using her again in the future. My pups came home happy, healthy and well cared for.

Desi and Marilyn were awesome. We honestly haven't left Jagger with anyone in a long time and were a bit nervous as he is 10+ years old. But after visiting Desi and a after a few days into his stay we were at ease. They made daily TikToks which were great and responded quickly when we asked how he was doing. You can tell they truly love these dogs. Best of all they are right in the same town as us. He will be back for sure
We had such a great experience with Juan. This was our first time leaving Teddy with them and Juan made us feel very comfortable. He took great care of Teddy and sent us pictures and updates which we really appreciated while we were away. It was so reassuring to see that Teddy was doing well and being well cared for. We’re very thankful to Juan and would absolutely feel comfortable leaving Teddy with them again.
Yeisa is the best and so sweet! Unfortunately while I was away on my birthday trip in Dominican Republic, my other sitter had mentioned she couldn’t take care of Moki. Yeisa being my life saver went and picked up Moki in less than a two hour notice and has treated my dog with the upmost respect. God bless you Yeisa! No issues whatsoever, and she will cater to your dog and its needs!
Kora was beyond well cared for with Valerie, I could not have been happier she was available. Valerie asked all the right questions to understand Kora and her needs and made her very comfortable. From the 1st pic 2 hours after drop off I could see how comfortable and happy she was. Valerie's communication was great before and during the stay, it's clear she loves animals. If Valerie is available do not hesitate to book her, made me feel comfortable quickly that Kora would be cared for well

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
96% of Paterson sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Paterson landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Paterson home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Paterson.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Paterson sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
