“We recently moved to the area and after an extensive search on Rover for sitters decided to meet with Raymond for an in person interview. We were immediately impressed with his willingness to meet and greet Sonny our English bulldog and it was clear there was a match. Shortly thereafter we booked his first stay and are certain Sonny felt like part of the family because Raymond sent pictures of him laying in the living room and in the evening he was resting in his crate (he loves to sleep in his crate) which was also kept in the family room. Throughout the day Raymond was kind enough to send pictures of Sonny playing in backyard and most importantly ensured that he received his medication daily and took great precautions to adhere to his strict diet given his skin allergies. Highly recommend Raymond and have already booked a number of upcoming stays. Great job Raymond we appreciate YOU!”
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.
“Highly recommend Melissa! My anxious pup settled in quickly and was clearly treated like family. Melissa provided my dog activity, enrichment, and affection, all while keeping me updated with regular communication. It’s rare to find someone who cares this much. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Sandra and San were absolutely exceptional with our dog, Luna. From the moment we met them, it was clear they genuinely care about the animals they look after. They went above and beyond in every aspect of Luna’s care. Their attention to safety and protection gave us complete peace of mind, and they took the time to learn every detail of her routine—from her meal schedule to her individual needs and preferences. They even asked for our veterinarian’s name and contact information in advance, which showed how prepared and responsible they are in case of an emergency. Throughout Luna’s stay, we knew she was in loving, capable hands. The level of care, professionalism, and genuine affection they showed her exceeded all of our expectations. We couldn’t recommend Sandra and San more highly. If you’re looking for people who will care for your dog as if they were their own, look no further. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of Luna—we will absolutely be booking with you again!!”
“Brittany was a superstar caregiver. She communicated regularly and clearly about her availability and then with status checks. Lola was very happy with her- she wanted to stay longer! I would definitely recommend Brittany.”
“Our Paris had a grand old time at Miss Karla’s. She played, took walks, explored, was well taken cared of and I got reports daily on Paris’s daily activities. I recommend Miss Karla one hundred percent!”
“Pricilla was wonderful with my dog. I was very nervous since this was my first experience but turned out to be better than expected. Pricilla updated me with photos each day which was great assurance. I will definitely reach out to Pricilla in the future!”
“Michelle is very confident which made me feel comfortable leaving Kobe with her. She sent me videos daily. Kobe was content while staying with her. If I have to leave Kobe again I will definitely book with Michelle.”
“Rhea and Michael are very warm people. This was my Harleys first time away from us and he was happy and well taken care of. I recommend them to anyone is looking for a relaxing time away without worry. Rhea sent pictures and Harley looked very content!”
About: We genuinely love spending time with dogs and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. As a husband-and-wife team, you’ll have two dedicated animal lovers caring for your pet, giving you added peace of mind and flexibility. We’ve been dog owners for over 15 years and have raised two dogs from puppies through their senior years. That experience has taught us patience, consistency, and how to care for dogs at every stage of life—from energetic puppies who need structure and play to senior dogs who require a slower pace, extra attention, and gentle care. We know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so we’ll always treat your dog like one of our own. Whether we’re stopping by for a visit or taking your dog on a walk, we’ll follow your instructions carefully, provide plenty of love and attention, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know your pet is happy and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine because we both work from home, giving us the flexibility to schedule walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. With our two children in elementary school, we’re already active in the community and have a routine that allows us to provide dependable care before work, during lunch breaks, after school, evenings, and on many weekends. As a husband-and-wife team, one of us is often available, allowing us to be flexible and reliable for your pet’s needs. Whether your dog needs a midday potty break, a walk to burn off energy, or a little extra companionship while you’re away, we’re happy to help and will always make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are our top priorities\. During every drop\-in visit or walk, we’ll follow your care instructions closely—from feeding schedules and medications \(if needed\) to favorite walking routes and playtime preferences\. We know that keeping pets on their normal routine helps them feel comfortable while you’re away\. We’ll treat your home with the same respect we’d expect for our own by ensuring doors and gates are securely locked, keeping your home tidy, and making sure your pet is safe before we leave\. We’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is happy and well cared for\. We understand that every dog is unique, so we’ll take the time to get to know their personality, energy level, and comfort level to provide patient, loving, and dependable care every visit.
“Kia took great care of our pup Winston. He was calm and behaved normally when we picked him up, indicating he was happy with the stay! Kia was kind and sent updates making us feel more comfortable as well.”
“Lisa was so loving and caring to Jupi during his stay. She made sure he was never alone and took the extra step to make sure he ate his food given he recently has started requiring add-ons to his regular dry food. She regularly sent me pictures and was always very responsive. Thank you for taking care of Jupi, we will definitely bring him back.”
“Oliver loved staying at Ksenia's. Her place was clean and welcoming and he felt right at home. She is a great communicator and sent lots of picture updates. He can't wait to go back!”
“Amazing host! They offered a meet and greet before boarding. During boarding, they shared many photos and updates such as what they’ve played and their appetite. I felt very comfortable having them watch over my dog.”
About: I have taken care of pets since I was a teenager. My own, family and friends. I feed them, walk them, bathe them, and even hand feed them if necessary. I work hybrid and I can care for pets Monday to Saturday from 8 to 6 pm for now. I can do some weekends if arrangements are made in advance. My backyard is fenced, we have plenty of indoor space for the pet to use and I can crate your pet if have them accustomed to it. We have a central air conditioning for those hot days.
“Carol was absolutely awesome! She checked in with us daily, sent photos, and reassured us that our pups were in good hands. She was flexible which we needed as we were hiring her ahead of having our baby who ended up coming early and she was gracious enough to move up our days. When she had questions she would reach out which we appreciated as our pups have skin issues and very sensitive stomachs. Carol and her family love pets and it is so evident by how happy our pups were at pick up and we will 100% be leaving our pups with her again. When we were driving off our pups were crying because they didn't want to leave. Thank you for taking such good care of them!”

Suzie is an awesome pet sitter. She treated Luna as her own kitty. She provided daily pictures and updates on how Luna was adjusting and said that Luna took over the house and had freedom to roam everywhere. She even said that Luna slept with her and her husband at night. I wholeheartedly recommend Suzie and I plan on using her again for my next trip.
Eleanor is awesome!!! I reached out to her for an emergency to keep my 5month old GSD pupp for a day. She was kind enough to keep him and took every good care of my pupp.. I highly recommend her. My pupp loved her place and secured backyard is a blessing in disguise
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!
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.
Allison took great care of my dog, Quinn. Quinn is a senior dog who can be a little anxious, and Allison kept me updated on how she was doing throughout her stay. She also has a fenced in backyard, which Quinn really enjoyed. Thank you for taking such good care of her!
Laura and Kevin were a great fit for my dog. They spent lots of time outdoors which is her favorite place to be. She's an older dog and not use to staying with people she doesn't know. On top of that, she was having intestinal issues and they still happily took her. They kept us updated with lots of check ins and pictures. We will definitely choose them again!

There are 14,042 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Ridgewood. About 88% of Ridgewood sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes.

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.
