House Sitting in River Edge

“Absolutely amazing! I could not have asked for better. My Oliver instantly loved her and so did I. Highly recommended and will be using Tatiana again. Couldn't be happier and feel more comfort leaving my baby boy- Thank you ; )”

“Ceecee was amazing! She was able to accommodate us extremely last minute to home sit our senior dog. She took great care of our dog and was able to keep up with all his medications. Our apartment was in phenomenal condition when we returned. We will not hesitate to book Ceecee again.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 10 years, from puppies to senior dogs. I currently have a senior small dog of my own, so I understand the patience and attention pets need at all life stages. I enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and helping them feel loved and comfortable. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for! I recently graduated with my master’s degree and currently have a very flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to pet care throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and lots of attention and companionship for your pets. I work hard to provide your pets with comfort and safety. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel as comfortable as possible. I’m especially patient with shy or nervous pets and will always provide a calm, caring, and attentive environment.

“Yvette spent a couple of days with Oliver and was great within. She provided timely updates and pictures, asked questions when needed and Oliver was great with her. Would definitely book her again.”

“Victoria took wonderful care of our puppy for several hours and did an amazing job! She made sure our pup was well fed, played with her, and kept her happy the entire time. She was very organized, attentive, and followed all our instructions perfectly. It’s clear she genuinely cares about animals. We felt completely at ease knowing our puppy was in such good hands. Highly recommend Victoria to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”

About: Hi! I’m Lindsay, a 19-year-old college student originally from New Jersey. Some things about me that I do on my free time is going on runs, going to the beach, and spending time with friends and family. I’ve been around animals my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. Growing up, my family always had dogs, and now currently have a tabby cat. I’ve frequently helped care for pets belonging to friends and relatives as well. I will always enjoy spending time with pets whether it be on a walk or just hanging out with them to keep company! I also have been caring for pets through a different app as well providing walks, sittings, drop ins, etc with a 5 star rating! The same love and attention I give to my pet will be the same for yours! I’m currently working part-time at Ben And Jerry’s. Usually Mondays, Thursdays, Friday, Saturdays. However, I work around my schedule as a pet-caregiver. I understand how important it is to feel safe and comfortable when leaving your pet in someone’s care. I promise to treat your pet with the same love, respect, and attention that I give to my own. Your pet’s well-being and happiness will always be my top priority, and I will make sure they feel secure and cared for every step of the way!

About: As a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience, being a dog sitter is more than a job—it’s a passion. I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, always treating them like part of the family. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just providing comforting company, I’m dedicated to making every pup feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away! As someone who works from home with a flexible schedule, I have plenty of time and attention to give your dog throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just companionship, I’m here to make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. With me, your dog won’t just be looked after—they’ll be part of a calm, happy home. As a dedicated dog sitter living in a spacious, pet-friendly apartment, I offer a safe and comfortable environment where your dog can feel right at home. With plenty of room to play indoors and several great dog parks just a short walk away, your pup will get the exercise, attention, and love they need. Whether it's playtime, cuddle time, or a relaxing stroll, I’m here to give your dog the care they deserve.

About: I have direct experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience. I'm comfortable with feeding routines and administering basic medications. I ensure each pet gets the exercise and care they're accustomed to. What sets me apart is my attention and love! I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe and cared for while you’re away! I’m home from college until July 24th, and I have a flexible, open schedule that lets me prioritize pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and extended stays, and I make sure pets receive consistent attention and care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their usual routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding, exercise, and any medications if needed. I’m very mindful of safety, keeping pets supervised, ensuring environments are secure, and avoiding anything that could put them at risk. I also treat your home with respect, cleaning up after myself and your pet, and leaving everything neat and tidy. I also keep communication open with updates and photos! My goal is to create a stress-free, loving environment where your pet feels at home.

“Alexandra took good care of our fur baby, Bootsie, while we are away. She made sure that Bootsie gets his meds on time, provided the attention and care he needs. She keeps him company and gave him the treats occasionally. Alexandra also learned about administering the subcutaneous fluid injection on Bootsie daily - a new skill that should be added in her resume. Bootsie is grateful for Alexandra's company and for providing him the tender loving care in our absence.”

“Pete went above and beyond! Incredible job as far as attention to detail and instructions. Very nice guy who kept us completely in the loop the entire time we were gone. Pete is easily the best dogsitter we’ve ever had and our dogs can’t wait to have him back. Whatever is above a perfect rating is what we’d rate him.”

About: I've worked via Rover for about fiver months (as of early May '26) -- during which time I've had many pleased recurring and one-time customers, have cared for a wide range of dogs, from a massive greyhound to an uncharacteristically aggressive male lab to a 20-year-old miniature requiring careful TLC. Prior to Rover, I've taken care of two family dogs who became family members, one of which I rescued from a neglectful owner. I was a hands-on dad to my son (now grown), got him the care he needed to survive and thrive as a preemie, and as a single parent knew well how to feed and change him and care for him when he was sick. As a senior, I have the experience and "seasoning" to know what's important, whether it's an infant or child or a family dog or a person with a disability or a senior like myself, and, then, how to see to it that the one in my care is well cared for, happy, and loved. Since the condo development where my wife and I live doesn't allow dogs, I take special pleasure in spending time with them at every opportunity. I come from a long line of dog lovers on my dad's side, and I proudly carry on that tradition. I keep as active as the vicissitudes of age allow, and currently am able to hike, play pickleball, and return to tennis and 5K runs, with kayaking "on deck." That fitness enables me to have what it takes to care for dogs of all ages and stages. I'm a retiree who does part-time volunteer work, both hands-on with elementary-school-aged children and legislative and policy advocacy on behalf of folks with intellectual and developmental disabilities. My other major activities are staying in shape and learning a foreign language. These part-time gigs, and the fact that my wife works part-time, leave me enough time to do some pet care. I cannot care for pets in my home, or for that matter have a dog, because the condo development where I live does not permit dogs. I care for dogs in their owner's homes, following their owners' lead, so to speak, and according to their owners' directives. Fortunately, this means that the dogs I care for, who know their way around their own turf, do not need to adjust to new environs. As a guest myself, I am naturally inclined to treat the home where I find myself with extra care and respect, more so than I would my own home.

“Nicole is the most caring, kind, respectful, and sweet dog sitter ever. She sends photos of the dogs and communicates all day! She makes it so much easier to leave our 2 mini dachshund puppies at home while we are at work knowing we have an amazing person taking care of them. Nicole goes above and beyond to provide the best care to our babies and we will absolutely be using her again for dog/ house sitting. She is the very best of the best!”

“Ori was fantastic with the crew!! He went beyond and above what was expected! Highly recommend him!”

Bruce C.

“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.”

“Oh my goodness! I cannot say anything better about Marco! He not only took amazing care our 3 dogs. He sent pictures, videos and kept us updated. Not only that, he respected our home, and went above and beyond with taking care of linens and laundry. He is amazing!”

Julia S.

“Cheryl was fantastic with communication and care for my two doodles. We asked for overnight stays since the second doodle is still a puppy and not yet potty trained. I loved the photo and video updates. Cheryl was very communicative and asked great questions. Looking forward to reaching out to her again for future trips.”

About: I started my experience dog walking 2 years ago for a professor’s friend in Winchester, Virginia. Twice a week, I would walk her hyper pups. She then recommended me to her father, whose dog I began walking twice a week as well. From there, my mini business boomed through word of mouth. I began dog sitting in people’s homes as well for multiple individuals for varying time spans. Most of the dogs I interacted with were seniors and required extensive care. However, all dogs owners loved and recommended me to others! I still walk the original dogs and add in others as my schedule allows with two other jobs. I am sad to leave my extensive clientele in Winchester, but I am moving back to New Jersey for graduate school and excited to meet new puppy friends!! For the summertime, I am incredibly flexible with nothing planned. I prefer weekly walks / drop ins, but also like sitting as well. In August, I start physical therapy school at Columbia University so my availability will decrease but I’d be willing to provide services on nights / weekends. During breaks, my availability will open up again! Whenever walking / sitting, I respect the owner’s rules, no matter what. I long to maintain utmost cleanliness and adherence to routine as physically possible. I am also very communicative and honest, building trust with my clients.

“Jalisa was fantastic! She took great care of our dogs. We have a new rescue puppy who is very scared of people and he warmed right up to Jalisa. And when my work unexpectedly asked me to stay an extra night, Jalisa was so accommodating and extended our booking by a night.”

“During the most demanding time, Thanksgiving weekend, she and her boyfriend Tim took care of my cat Mani so well. I saw she was having fun time to play with him and never forgot his treats as I requested. Thank you for taking care of him so well.”
