“This is the first time I leave my fur baby with Ms. Katherine. My fur baby had the best time and was well cared for. I received picture and video updates throughout the day. I highly recommend and plan to use again. 😊🩵”
“Marisol is amazing! They treated our pups like family, have a very high end and clean set up, and were excellent with communication. We’re already booked for our next trip!”
“As always, Suela is the next best thing to family. Peggy loves being there, it’s more of a doggy vacations n than boarding. Suela has the experience to help direct Peggy and has helped her open up and become more playful with other dogs. Thank you!!”
“Wonderful experience with Pam during this 9-day stay for our dog Peggy! Great care, great host family, great neighborhood for walks, great communication. Great Everything! Thanks so much Pam.”
“Jonathan is amazing. I dropped off my little guy here since he was close to our wedding venue and Jonathan took great care of him. Robin adjusted quickly and we felt at ease during our wedding knowing he was being well taken care of. Jonathan even dropped and picked up Robin so that he can attend our ceremony! Will be sure to book Jonathan again”
“Elizabeth and Oleg took such great care of Maia! When I picked her up she was smiley, tired from all the playtime (Maia loves to play and they followed instructions), and so happy. They were so helpful and communicative, I’m already looking to book ahead for November.”
“Lisa was very kind and caring with my Junie. She sent me texts and pictures and I was put at ease immediately. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to using her services again.”
“We used Morgan, and actually Rover.com, for the first time. My husband dropped off Laska (our hound mix rescue dog), and noticed that she seemed happy to go with Morgan. For us, this is a big deal because she's been through a lot. When we used the kennel Laska would fight us going in, and would come home stressed out and completely out of it. This was not the case after picking up Laska from Morgan's. Laska was clean, happy, and not stressed out! This was a first for her! Laska did have some separation anxiety, so she chewed her bed up. That was our fault because we forgot to tell Morgan about the routine that we have when we leave the house. As a result, we thought Morgan would tell us that she wouldn't watch Laska again, but to our delight, Morgan said she will take her in the future.”
“Thanks Ankita...They were attentive, reliable, and clearly cared for my dog like their own. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was happy, safe, and well taken care of.”
About: We’ll welcome your dog into our home like he’s our own pet. We love taking walks around the neighborhood, playing fetch in the yard or snuggling with your pup! My husband and I both work from home 5 days a week, so at least one of us is always around to keep your dog safe and in good company. We have a fenced in yard with room to play, and an energetic Labradoodle who loves company and showing other dogs around his neighborhood on walks.
“Maureen and her family were amazing! Mocha was well taken care of, we got daily updates and pictures, and she was so responsive to anything we'd needed! When I arrived to pick Mocha up, he jumped on me to say hi, and then immediately sprinted to the back of the house (not the front door) cause he'd had such a good time there!”
“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!”
“Pia’s stay with Charles was great. He is an awesome person who truly loves the pets he cares for. He shared pictures time to time keeping us informed of Pia’s well being. I am grateful to have met Charles and highly recommend him. We are definitely returning next time Pia needs a break from us 😊”
“This was the first time we used Rover and Jennifer. Our experience with both was great. Jennifer was so caring and Judge had a great time while there. We would definitely use her again and recommend her as well.”
“Chelsea was great! Very communicative and professional. Our dog Leo hada great time with Chelsea and her put Sundae. I highly recommend Chelsea to care for your puppy.”
“My girls have just returned from their second stay with Desi & Marilyn. When we pulled into the driveway, my dogs were racing to get inside Desi’s play area. They were happy and comfortable, so this confirmed they were obviously happy and well cared for by Desi and Marilyn the first stay- because the dogs would not have been so happy to be back. This just made me extra confident in leaving them. They seemed happy, playing and socializing with everyone. Will not hesitate to book again.”
“This was our first time leaving Pete with Monica & Kelvin. I was assured he was being well cared for, and was updated with photos of him being snuggled and playing in the yard.”
“Ligiane was amazing. Great communication and very kind and thoughtful. It’s clear that her and her daughter are dog lovers and took very good care of my pup. When I picked her up, she was relaxed and happy, and clearly bonded with everyone. Highly recommend!”
“Great communication from her. My dogs had so much fun boarding at her house and came home happy and tired. I had no worries about their safety and knew they were having fun. Would definitely recommend boarding with Kia.”
“Christina was so communicative and Neptune seemed very well looked after while I was away for a week. When I described Neptunes potential reactivity she took it all in stride and he did very well while he was there, which I’m so grateful for. I will definitely use her services again!”

There are 13,204 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.

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.
