“Enis took very good care of Sophie while we were away for the weekend. He has a very calm and caring demeanor. He sent some pictures and was very responsive to my texts. I was a little nervous leaving her because she is a diabetic and needed her insulin injections at meals. He was able to give her the shots as instructed. She seemed very happy when I came to pick her up. Definitely recommend and will visit again!”
“I’m so grateful for the wonderful care Nova received while I was away! She absolutely loved her Ann and enjoyed the company of the other dogs. The atmosphere was very clean, calm, and welcoming clearly a space where pets feel comfortable and safe. It gave me peace of mind knowing Nova was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be bringing her back again! 🐾”
“Hands down the best person we’ve ever dealt with! She is so sweet and attentive. Has taken such good care of our Teddy and has updated us along the way with so many pictures. Can’t recommend her enough. This is the only person we will ever deal with going forward.”
“Kelsie was great. Enjoyed getting photos of our dog (we missed her) lounging in the sun. Nala seemed very comfortable during her stay and came back to us properly spoiled. Would definitely use Kelsie again!”
“This is the 2nd time I've left Oliver with Cathy and I picked him up happy. This time drop-off was rather late at 9 pm, but I do appreciate that she would rather be home to receive him and ensure he gets properly introduced to other dogs. As before, Cathy sent daily photo updates, which is really great. Thanks!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Leaving our two dogs, Kobe and Bucky, in someone else’s care is never easy, but we felt completely comfortable and confident knowing they were in great hands. The communication, attention to detail, and genuine care for our dogs made all the difference. It was such a relief knowing Kobe and Bucky were being treated like family while we were away. Having that peace of mind allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our trip. It’s not easy finding someone you can trust with your pets, but we’re so grateful to have found Funda who genuinely cares about their well-being. We would absolutely book again without hesitation and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Kobe and Bucky!”
“Amanda was very communicative and took great care of my dog for a long weekend! I got regular updates, and he seemed to get along well with Amanda’s dog too. I would happily leave my dog with her again.”
“Yeisa was fantastic! She was responsive and listened to instructions well, which made us feel comfortable leaving our pup with her. She sent photos and videos and was very flexible in pick up and drop off. I will book her again!”
“Another great vacation for our dog Skye! She had a great time and as always Michelle was amazing! Our flights got a little messed up and she was super flexible while we figured everything out. Will definitely book with her again!”
“Briana took care of our dog Happy for 9 days while we were on vacation. She did an amazing job, and we could tell that she and Happy had formed a nice bond. She was very responsive to our texts. We received photos every day of them playing, going on walks, and relaxing together. We did a video call as well to check in. Happy was very comfortable, and enjoyed her time under Brianna's care. We'll definitely hire Brianna again in the future.”
“Karla was wonderful. Great communication, super fast replies, oodles of pictures sent, and just a really great vibe. Ramona clearly had a wonderful time during her stay and she came home clean and happy. We will not hesitate to book again with Karla!”
“Amy was great. Since we were in the area for a wedding and we selected Amy from all the positive posts. She was exactly what we wanted for our Cali. She sent pics which was great. I highly recommend Amy for anyone looking for a caring and secure sitter for your fur baby. Tks Amy❤️”
“Darien and her family were wonderful! They took good care of our dog, and kept us updated, through messages and photos, of the stay. Darien is also very meticulous about feedings and ensuring that our dog felt at home. We really appreciated that!”
“She did a fantastic job looking after our pups. Cooper and Toby were happy when they came home. We also appreciated the daily photos and videos of them while we were away. I will definitely use her again! ?”
“Milena is a gem; our dog has a wonderful time with her, is extremely well cared for, and (if we’re honest), is probably a little sad when we come to pick her up after a stay with Milena. Highly recommend!”
“Florence is a sweetheart and took great care of Paco. She sent daily updates with adorable pictures and videos of my pup. 10 out of 10! Will definitely book with Florence again!”
“Our Harley has never been so happy staying away from home. He was smiling every day! Corinne & John are excellent, reliable and very kind. So glad we found a second family for our Harley! Thank you Corinne & John! See you again soon.”
“Michele was great with Tito! She gave plenty of updates and photos. It was our first time using Rover in a long time, and Michele made it easy. 10/10 would definitely recommend her for any dog sitting needs!”

Kacy was amazing with my puppy. She’s warm, friendly and attentive. She took care of Remy as if he was hers. They went on walks and she even washed his blanket. He was a little home sick at bedtime and she stayed with him so he wasn’t anxious. She sent pictures and messages while we were away and was flexible with pick up and drop off times. I definitely would recommend Kacy and use her again!
This is our pup's 3rd time staying with Bayan. We are so grateful to have found her and her family! They always take such good care of our pup and always keeps us posted with pictures and videos. Their pup is also very sweet and gentle and we're so happy our pup has a playmate while he's there. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving and trustworthy sitter!

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

There are 13,319 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Riverdale. About 88% of Riverdale 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.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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.
