“We had a great experience with Leanne and Mark. The communication was consistent, positive and geared towards my concerns re: his anxiety with new people. We are booking again and soon. Teddy came home relaxed and happy!”
“Christina did a wonderful job with our dog Zoey! This was her second time with her. We were away on vacation for one week and felt so at ease leaving her. Her communication is great but best of all our dog feels so comfortable with her! It fav is such piece of mind knowing she was happy and well taken care of. I highly recommend her and we definitely will use her again!!”
“Nicole and Alexis took great care of my dog Ollie, even helping him with some medical issues he’s dealing with. They sent lots of photos and were very responsive!”
“Monica kept Henry for a long weekend and, as always, was excellent with him. Monica has a very active house and manages to keep up with everything while making it look easy. Henry is always well taken care of when he’s with Monica and her family. I would not hesitate to recommend Monica.”
“Maryori was the perfect choice for our fur baby Bentley. She was very warm and welcoming, and she made our boy feel right at home. He spent his birthday with her and she went out of her way to buy him a few gifts and treats which we appreciated very much! I will definitely book her again.”
“Rose has been amazing with our dog Jamie! She is extremely personable, and very accommodating to our needs. She is very good with animals, and really knew how to introduce Jamie to the other boarders and help him assimilate to the environment. This was our first time leaving Jamie in a home other than our own, and we weren’t sure how that was going to play out- and Rose really made us feel comfortable that our baby was in good hands ❤️ Highly recommend!!!”
“Jovani did an amazing job, I needed a sitter on really short notice and he answered almost immediately. Really amazing communication, sent pictures throughout the day, my dog was comfortable in very short time with him. He followed all directions and was always available with any questions or concerns I had!”
“Zyiana was great! She was so flexible to accommodate my travel times. She sent great pics and videos during updates giving me great peace of mind while I was away.”
“We had a fantastic experience working with Anthony! My dog Hazel stayed for several days. She a bit shy, and Anthony and Cosmo really brought her out of her shell. Anthony sent many photos and Hazel had a large outdoor space to play, which was awesome. When I picked her up, she was romping happily in the back yard with her new BFF, Cosmo, having the time of her life :)”
“This was my first time boarding my 11 month old puppy. They were wonderful with her, she enjoyed herself and they frequently sent pictures of her so I wouldn’t be worried.”
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy! I had a Golden Retriever for five and a half years who took daily medication, so I’m comfortable following specific routines and medication instructions. I’ve also fostered two dogs through rescue organizations, both of whom were successfully adopted. I’ve cared for four dogs through TrustedHousesitters and received 5-star reviews, and I’m the trusted dog sitter for family and friends. These experiences have given me the opportunity to care for dogs with all kinds of personalities and needs. My goal is to make your pup feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away—and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I work remotely full-time with a flexible schedule, giving me plenty of flexibility to accommodate your pet’s routine. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends and will work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s needs and your schedule. I live on my own with no other pets, so your pup will have my full attention! While I don’t have a fenced-in yard, there are plenty of grassy areas and sidewalks throughout my dog-friendly neighborhood that are perfect for walks and exploring. There are also plenty of friendly neighborhood dogs for pups who enjoy socializing, while everyone is respectful of dogs who prefer to have their own space. I’m happy to follow your pup’s comfort level and routine!
“Samantha was very hospitable with my Oshi. He was there 2 nights and Samantha seemed very apt to handle a skittish dog. I was apprehensive in leaving him at her home because she had a young son, but there were no issues that she communicated. However, the biggest concern I had was the heavy cigarette smoke in her house and the smell of which clinging to both Oshi’s and his bag of things left there when I picked him up.”
“Amy was great with our pretty anxious dog who stayed at her home overnight. We got several cute photos and felt really comfortable knowing our dog was in good hands. Would definitely use Amy’s services again!”
“My dog doesn't like to be away from home, but Rhea makes her feel comfortable and takes excellent care of all her needs, also during the recent heat wave. Sage was happy and in great shape when I returned after a longer trip. While I was away, Rhea kept me up-to-date on how Sage was doing, which is very helpful for peace of mind. I will always ask Rhea when I need help with dog sitting. I highly recommend her.”
About: I have raised and cared for many different dogs, cats, horses, chickens and goats. I believe that kindness and patience is the key to a great visit. I am available 7 days a week any time. I can do weekends or week days. Let me know what you and your pet need and I'm your walker. My home is just myself and my wife. Our dog Bo is a gentle loveable Shepard Husky mix who gets along with every dog he has met. In your home I respect it like it was my own. I was in the hospitality business my entire life and that service still continues to you and your pets.
“Chelsea was so patient with our nervous girl. She gave harper lots of snuggles and love throughout the weekend. I appreciated the pictures and updates!”
“Milissa is so communicative! Always sending updated & pictures which makes us feel so comfortable leaving Louie in her care. We will continue to rebook with her!!”
“Eric did a wonderful job watching our senior dog! We received updates on our dog's stay and we look forward to booking with Eric again. Highly recommend!”
“Erica was one of the best dogsitters Buddy has ever had! She took such loving care of him, and sent daily updates. She was so easy to work with. So much peace of mind knowing Buddy was in such good hands.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Riverton
This was my first time using a border to watch my dog while I was on vacation. And I was very nervous about it. But as soon as I met Lan and saw how she connected with Luna, I was put at ease. Throughout the entire time we were away Lan provided numerous photos and videos of Luna and kept us up-to-date on how she was doing. When she got home, she adjusted very quickly and I could tell that she had enjoyed her time being taken care of by Lan. I would highly recommend her to anyone. She does an amazing job and she truly cares about the pets that she’s taken care of.
Denise was incredible, our dogs loved her! We went out of the country, so we were nervous to leave them behind, but they loved their time at Denise's house. Our larger dog is dog reactive (except for his brother) and she was able to manage that very well. He also requires medication, which was handled by Denise as well. She updated us with photos during the trips and the dogs didn't want to leave!
Lou was well cared for while we were away on vacation. We booked short notice and had no issues, I would definitely use them Lauren and John again. Lou is like a child to me. He came home happy and tired after playing with the kids for a week. Thanks for being awesome and making my trip less stressful!! I would definitely book with them again.
Craig took amazing care of our two pups while we travelled for the Christmas holiday. His place was absolutely perfect with the large back yard, and he also took them on many walks throughout the day. They had a great experience. Would absolutely recommend to anyone!

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Riverton can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Riverton home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Riverton.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Riverton. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Riverton sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
