“I felt very comfortable leaving my 2 cats in Leticia’s care. Very reliable and consistent with timing. I received daily updates including photos. I highly recommend Leticia for your pet sitting needs.”
“The dog was happy and the place was standing. In the end that's all that matters but a decent person who communicates well with an honest smile on their face and a personality to match makes the whole thing run smoother.”

“This was our first time using Katherine for dog sitting our 8 year old lab mix, Gus. We needed someone on very short notice who was willing to stay at our house. Katherine was very responsive and flexible to our needs. Our plans were difficult to nail down and Katherine was easy going and adjusted the reservation without hesitation. While we were away she was outstanding at keeping us in the loop with pictures and videos of Gus. Getting those reminders that Gus was being well cared for, played with and well fed was a big relief. I would recommend Katherine to anyone and look forwards to using her in the future!”
About: For a little over four years I've been the go-to pet sitter for my coworkers when they go on vacation. I've researched all things related to dogs pretty much from the moment I learned to use a computer because I've spent almost all my life trying to convince my parents to get a dog. Spoiler alert, I was unsuccessful ): but not for lack of trying ("dogs are too big of a financial commitment" according to them... but four kids isn't??? but I digress lol)! Training has always been fascinating to me, it never fails to amaze me how smart dogs are! Overall I just love their energy and how loving they can be, being around dogs is truly therapeutic and does wonders for your mental health! You're so blessed to have one in your life and I would be honored to care for them (: <3 Sunday-Wednesday and Friday I work 7-3 and I’m off all day on Thursday and Saturday! Currently taking a break from school, so as soon as I get out of work I'll be free to devote my time to your doggies (: I live in a big apartment with a home office that I turn into the doggy room essentially although they are welcome to roam throughout the apartment of course! My neighborhood is very walkable (one of my favorite things about where I live) and I’m about a mile and a half away from like 3 parks!
About: If you give me the opportunity to care for your pet, you'll feel at ease knowing I'll take care of it as if it were my own. I'll give it all the love and attention it needs to make you feel happy. Right now I'd like to dedicate myself solely to animals and their care. I have every day of the week free to dedicate myself to them. For me, all animals deserve the same treatment and care. I always give them my best, no matter the occasion. I will always give you all my love, attention and you will never lack my care.
“We are very pleased with the exemplary care that Alexa provided to our dog Finnegan during a several day stay in our home. Finnegan warmed up to her within seconds of meeting her. She was proactive in communicating with us regularly, providing much-appreciated pictures. Alexa has been a caring, reliable, and responsible sitter whom we’d recommend to others and plan to call upon again!”
About: I love dogs and I love taking care of them as well as playing with them. I have a lot of family and friends who have dogs so I have experience in taking care of all types of dogs.I have a few years of experience with dogs and I just love being around dogs. I get along with all types of dogs pretty easily. I am a responsible person when it comes to taking care of other people's dogs.
“Savana was fantastic with our dogs. She was kind, reliable, communicated throughout the stay, let our home in perfect condition and our pooches were happy and well cared for in Savanas capable hands. I would definitely recommend her to anyone considering her as a petsitter or dog walker.”
About: I welcomed my greyhound mix 4 years ago, and my beagle this year. They are goofy, lovable, and high energy! I love being their mom and would love to help out with your angels too. I am currently between jobs and so I have loads of free time to devote to caring for your pets! I couldn’t think of a better use of my time. My dogs are crate trained, happy and healthy. I would work with you to ensure that we have a good level of trust and that I have a safe rapport with your pet.
“Tatiana was great! She took the time to meet before the day she was going nj to Dogsit. She sent lots of updates and photos and was a joy to communicate with. Thank you Tatiana!”
“I am very happy to find Lisbeth, she takes good care of my dog Ruby. Ruby is a senior with weak legs and slightly difficult to handle but, I have no worries with Lisbeth.”
“We’re so grateful to have found a wonderful person to babysit our boy! We will certainly be using Stefanie again. She’s a qualified professional who communicates well and took great care of our cat.”
About: Animals have always been family to me. I grew up with dogs and now share my home with two cats who are truly my kids. I’m the kind of pet parent who wakes up in the middle of the night if they need me, or rushes to the vet the moment something feels off. When I lived with my parents, I cared for their two dogs with the same devotion. From daily walks and playtime to the less glamorous tasks, I did it all with love. What sets me apart is my genuine commitment to treating every pet like they’re my own. Whether it’s an energetic puppy needing play and structure, or a senior pet who deserves patience and gentle care, I bring reliability, compassion, and the kind of attentiveness that gives pet parents peace of mind. With me, your pets will feel safe, loved, and cared for as if you never left. I work full-time as a Human Resources Benefits Administrator monday through friday 8–5, but outside of those hours I’m available for pet care. On Fridays I work remotely, which gives me extra flexibility. I can do daytime visits, evenings, or overnight care the night before. I make sure to plan around my work schedule so your pets get the attention they need. On Saturdays and Sundays, I’m fully available for drop-ins, walks, or overnight care. I care for pets like they’re my own. I follow your routines so their day feels normal and stress-free, whether it’s mealtime, playtime, or quiet time. I keep things clean and safe by refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, and tidying up after walks or play. Every pet is different, I pay attention to what makes them happy, extra cuddles, space to relax, or more play.
“This was our very first time using Rover, and as extremely overprotective dog parents, we were definitely nervous. But Brad was absolutely amazing from start to finish. He eased our minds with daily updates, complete with photos and videos that showed just how well our dog was doing! We also had a Fi tracker on his collar and it was so reassuring to see how many walks and steps he was getting. Brad took him out so often, even more than our normal routine! Our dog occasionally gets so excited that he’ll throw up if he hasn’t eaten in a while, and when it happened, Brad immediately texted us, cleaned it up, and made sure he ate and drank after. His communication was quick, calm, and thoughtful, which helped us feel totally at ease. It was clear our dog was incredibly well cared for — he got plenty of walks, playtime with his toys, and lots of attention. Honestly, he looked sad when Brad left! Brad also left our home neat and spotless, which we really appreciated. We feel like we hit the jackpot with Brad. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better to take care of our fur baby, and we’d recommend him to absolutely anyone. We hope to book with him again!”
“Andrea was so amazing looking after Remy, really caring approach, great updates throughout the day and having fun with him. Remy was still recovering from his neutering surgery and Andrea cared for him so well. Will definitely have Andrea back to see Remy!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10, and I even have my own dog Toby who is 13 and my absolute baby. I regularly walk my tenants dog and my neighbors dog twice a day whenever I don’t have sports. Families have always relied on me to walk, feed, and give their pets tons of love and I’m committed to making every dog feel safe and happy. Pet care fits well into my routine because I’m fully available every Sunday and most of Saturday. I plan around my sports schedule, so weekends are the perfect time for me to give dogs my full attention. I always make sure I have enough time to walk, play with, and care for each pet. I always put safety and trust first when caring for pets. I follow each owners routines, use leashes on every walk, and make sure pets are never left unsupervised. Whether I’m in my home or a client’s home, I keep the environment calm, clean and comfortable. I treat every dog like my own 13 year old Toby, giving them lots of attention and care so they always feel safe and loved.
About: At our home we can provide exceptional care for your pet. My husband and I really enjoy the many different breeds and personalities of our guests. We will give them the best care that they're used to, so you won't have to worry while you are away from them. I will send you daily texts, pictures and updates so you can see that your dog is being well-cared for. We live in a single-family home with a fenced-in yard and have a pretty relaxed style in taking care of your pet. Please take a moment to read my reviews and you will see how our former "guests" enjoyed their stay at our home. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend in the future.

Paterson pet parents share their Rover experiences
This was our first time using Katherine for dog sitting our 8 year old lab mix, Gus. We needed someone on very short notice who was willing to stay at our house. Katherine was very responsive and flexible to our needs. Our plans were difficult to nail down and Katherine was easy going and adjusted the reservation without hesitation. While we were away she was outstanding at keeping us in the loop with pictures and videos of Gus. Getting those reminders that Gus was being well cared for, played with and well fed was a big relief. I would recommend Katherine to anyone and look forwards to using her in the future!
We’re so happy to have found Eilleen! She is reliable, communicative, and super friendly. We felt so comfortable leaving our Lucy in her care, and Lucy loved her so much! They had a great time snuggling and hanging out together. We will certainly be rebooking in the near future!
Joeli took fantastic care of Boomer! It was our first time using Rover for an overnight sitter (without first getting to know someone with walks) and she was great! Watched our pup for - 5 day trip. She had Excellent communication and we came home to a happy dog an a clean house.
James was wonderful with Brio. Our much loved dog gets anxious and grumpy when we leave him in someone else's care, so we were delighted to see videos of Brio playing in the yard early in our trip. James was just the reassuring presence Brio needed! We were truly appreciative of his care, and look forward to having him back.
Lidia was so wonderful with my two pups. This was the first time we left them home without someone from the family and they did so well. Lidia sent me photos and messages everyday and paid special attention to the little details. Would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a responsible and loving sitter.
Savana was fantastic with our dogs. She was kind, reliable, communicated throughout the stay, let our home in perfect condition and our pooches were happy and well cared for in Savanas capable hands. I would definitely recommend her to anyone considering her as a petsitter or dog walker.
Gus was amazing!! This was our first time leaving our pup and Gus definitely made us feel very comfortable and at ease. He listened to all of our information about Benny and was very responsive. He was attentive to Benny the whole time and sent photos and updates. We will definitely use Gus again and will be recommending him.
Leticia was amazing—I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter! I was away for a week and felt completely at ease the entire time because she went above and beyond in every way. She gave my cat his medication right on schedule (not always easy!), and kept me updated with daily messages and adorable photos. It was clear she truly cared and treated him like her own. Knowing he was in such loving and capable hands made all the difference. She’s an absolute gem and I can’t recommend her highly enough!
