“This is our second time coming to Jose and he was wonderful with ginger. Had to extender her stay last minute by one day and he was very accommodating. We look forward to any future stays”

“Yanina was great! She kept us informed and updated throughout our puppy's stay with her, and was very flexible with our pick up/drop off schedule. Our puppy had a lot of fun and exercise while with Yanina and her dog, Stella. Would definitely be back for future boarding needs!”

“Another doggie stay in the books! Nervana is just the best! She cares for my babies like they are her own. She is super communicative and I always felt at ease whenever we talked. I got daily photos and videos and it felt great to see my boys happy 😊”

“I highly recommend Mendelsohn as a dog sitter. He was very welcoming and has a huge love for dogs. He recently took care of our Dog Joey and we have no complaints. We received daily updates and photos while we were away. I would definitely book him again - NO complaints!!”

“Jacqueline, her husband and kids are such a wonderful family. They took excelence care of Loki. My fur baby is a very picky eater and Jacqueline not only went above and beyond to ensure that he would eat but always making sure he was confortable. Will definitely book again.”

“Would highly recommend Yvette as a dog sitter! I left my 11 year old dog Ziggy with her for a week while I was on vacation and I could tell from the daily pictures and videos that she sent me how much Ziggy felt like he was at home. Normally when I get back from a trip Ziggy is overly excited to see me but he was calm and happy when I picked him up which I think speaks to how much he was cared for and how at ease he felt all week. We will definitely be returning clients, thank you Yvette!!!”

About: Dear Future Client, Thank you for considering me to care for your cherished dog! I know how important it is to find someone who will truly love your pet while you're away. For me, dog sitting isn't a job, it's a passion. I've been a lifelong family animal lover, and when your dog stays with us, they become a member of my family. While I love all dogs, I offer special focus and patience for pets with unique needs: Senior Care: I have specific experience administering oral medications and providing gentle, low-impact care for our wise senior dogs. I ensure they have a calm, quiet, and comfortable environment for their achy joints. Puppy: If you have a puppy, I will reinforcing your rules, maintain consistent crate training and stick your potty schedule to ensure they feel confortable and secure. Be sure that my home is completely dog-proofed, so you can relax knowing your pet is in safe hands. I will complete your dog's exact feeding, walking, and sleeping schedule. You'll receive every morning and evening a detailed update with multiple photos and videos (if you request) so you never have to wonder how your baby is doing. I look forward to meeting you and earning your trust. Let's schedule a Meet & Greet soon so you can see where your dog will enjoy their happy stay! Warmly, Rodger (Your Dog's Second Best friend) Caring for your dog is the central focus of my day, guaranteed!. Your pet's needs are never missed because my schedule ensures continuous supervision. First potty break, feeding (per schedule), and gentle morning play. Long exercise walk (30-45 mins), dedicated playtime, and midday potty breaks. This is when I focus on reinforcing puppy training or providing calm senior monitoring Dinner (per schedule), extended backyard/safe area access, and focused attention during family time. "Rodger Report" sent with photos/updates. Last potty break, secured sleeping area, and medication administration (if needed). I believe trust is built through transparency. You will receive the "Rodger Report" (a detailed summary with photos/videos) multiple times daily, confirming their safety, happiness, and adherence to their specific schedule.

About: I’ve had multiple animals growing up, I’ve always been the friend/ family member that was asked to care for pets. I’m very patient and adapt very well to different routines and conditions. I only work three days out of the week so i’m pretty available for your needs! I have a dog of my own and he’s always had time to be walked and fed on time! My dog is a quiet shy guy, he free roams in the house is walked regularly and fed on time, I’ve mostly done check ins at the clients home, never had any issue following their routine with feeding or walking.
“We had a great experience with Melissa watching our dog, Kody. She was incredibly professional, responsive, and thoughtful throughout the entire stay. She provided regular updates and photos, which made it easy to relax and enjoy our trip knowing Kody was in good hands. Most importantly, Kody was clearly comfortable and well cared for. Melissa treats the dogs she watches like her own, and it shows. We’ll definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”

“Lucas and Katherine were phenomenal! They sent videos and pictures the entire time my baby was with them. You could tell they really love dogs and she was so happy to be with them. It was great to know that she was being well cared for and loved.”

“Katie was SO kind and incredibly gentle with my Collie, who was going to a sitter for the first time. She followed all of the small instructions and details in his schedule, from feeding habits to giving medicine, and even cleaned his blanket + bowls at the end of his stay. My dog barely wanted to leave after finishing his stay! I truly cannot recommend her enough.”


About: I've always loved all animals since I was a kid but have a special affinity for dogs and cats. I lost my sweet pup, Ewan, in 2019 to Hemangiocarcoma (a blood cancer) and to this day I still mourn him and can feel his presence in my life. I also lost my dear cat, Figaro, last year to natural old age causes. I'm a very good dog and cat dad and miss them terribly. In the past few years, so many friends and family have asked me to pet sit their fur babies and they always remark that they know their dog or cat is in the best possible hands with me. That they can actually relax on their trip because of how responsible and devoted I am to their pets and how much their pets adore me. Everyone has been encouraging me to sign up for Rover and now I'm finally doing it! I honestly believe Ewan and Figaro guided me here in their own way to spend time with your beloved kiddos. I look forward to getting to meet you and your pets! I work remotely from home as a story consultant and my longest sessions are around 2 hours, so I have most of the day to hang out with your fur baby! If your pet is staying at my place, they'll most likely hang out with me in the large loft area where I work. So they won't be left alone (unless they're the type that needs their space!) The minute they tell me they need to go out for a walk or really just need attention, I'm all theirs. If they're used to taking naps or sleeping on the bed at night, that also is fine by me! :) If I'm at your place, of course I'll abide by your exact rules for them. I follow instructions well and provide plenty of photo updates so you can relax and know your fur baby is in good hands!
“Vernisha, did an excellent job from the beginning of our communication until the moment we picked him up. She kept us informed throughout our getaway and sent photos and videos, including updates from the park when she took our dog for a walk. We really loved the way she cared for him and kept us updated on his well-being. We highly recommend her!”

“I had such a wonderful first-time dog-sitting experience thanks to Starry and Gio. They are absolutely awesome and took amazing care of Billion. It's like a winter camp for him. I got tons of cute photos and message updates, which kept me totally worry-free the whole time. I would highly recommend them and will definitely book again!”

“My dog is so well cared for when she’s with Jalisa. The entire family loves on my fur baby so much that sometimes I have to drag her away. I am a repeat customer and will be as long as Jalisa will have us.”


“Bob is the absolute best. We are immeasurably thankful for the care and attention he provided to our dog. Full/complete communication before and during our dog’s stay with his family, pics of our canine each day. My dog looked/acted so happy when I picked her up, I think she thought she was treated to a spa vacation. Thank you Bob for everything you did for our little lady.”
“Lakshmi took care of my Ruby for a couple of weeks and she did such an amazing job caring for her. She sent me photos and videos everyday and made sure Ruby was getting all the attention she needed to feel comfortable with her and her family. I would 100% book with Lakshimi again. Thanks you Lakshimi for treating Ruby like she was part of your family.”

“Jessica is amazing! I can’t say it enough. She is awesome with whiskey. He loves going over and staying with her. He plays all day and has a great time there! I never worry when he is with her! She is my go to person when we need for him to stay somewhere. Trust her fully!”

Our dog sitter was absolutely amazing! She treated my dog like her own baby and gave him so much love and attention. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands.

There are 13,488 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Perth Amboy. About 88% of Perth Amboy sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

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.
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 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.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
