“Christina is the best dog sitter/walker/companion there is. She is so attentive to my dog’s needs and she provides him with love and care each time she comes. Christina is so easy to communicate with. She is very flexible, responsive, and caring. I truly recommend her for all of your dog/cat needs. Thanks so much!”
About: I currently work at one of the top-rated doggy daycares in Elmwood Park, where I’ve had the opportunity to gain hands-on experience caring for dogs of all different personalities, sizes, and needs. I’ve always had a genuine love for dogs and have grown up around them my entire life, learning how to care for them with patience, attentiveness, and compassion. Working with dogs is something that comes naturally to me, and I truly enjoy creating a safe, happy, and comfortable environment where every dog feels loved and cared for. I work morning shifts five days a week, typically from 6 AM to 1 PM, which leaves my afternoons and evenings open for pet care. My days off vary each week, but I’m flexible and love dedicating my free time to caring for animals. I’m available whenever I’m not working and will always make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, love, and care. 🐾 I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and completely at home. My own pets are my spoiled babies, and I make sure they have everything they need to live their happiest lives from plenty of playtime and attention to regular meals, potty breaks, and the freedom to be their silly, lovable selves. I create a calm, caring environment where pets can feel comfortable, be themselves, and know they’re in loving hands. When caring for someone else’s pet, I treat them with that same patience, affection, and care I would want for my own.
“Andrew always does such a great job taking care of my 2 cats (one senior and one kitten). He asks great questions about their care, leaves detailed notes, and sends lots of pictures. I’ve booked with him a few times now and would highly recommend.”
“This is my first time using Rover and I was skeptical because of stories I’ve heard. Also I have 2 big puppy/adults. However Bryndon made everything smooth and easy and he was super kind and professional. Thanks Bryndon!”
About: I have 4 years of experience caring for dogs and understand how important it is to have someone dependable looking after your pet. Since I work remotely, I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day for walks, check-ins, feeding, playtime, and pet sitting. I’m located in the Rochelle Park/Paramus area and already spend a lot of my day caring for and walking my own dog. I’m comfortable adjusting to each dog’s routine, personality, and energy level. I may also be available for boarding depending on your dog’s comfort level and whether it’s a good fit with my home environment. I work remotely, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pet throughout the day. My schedule mainly revolves around occasional work meetings, and outside of those I can adjust my day for walks, check-ins, feeding, playtime, and other needs. I’m available throughout the week and can work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s normal routine. Every pet is different, so my goal is to follow the routine and instructions you provide as closely as possible. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality, comfort level, habits, and needs while building trust with them over time. Whether I’m walking your dog, checking in, or pet sitting, I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, cared for, and treated like I would want someone to treat my own dog.
“Best pet service!! I’m truly happy I found Diane and was able to have her taken care of my two kitties while I was gone for vacation. She is very patient and caring for my little ones and has given me the comfort of knowing they were in good hands while I was away! Will totally rebook her on for next getaway ☺️”
“Cooper loved Alexa ! I appreciate Alexa’s patience and following all the directions I left as I am a first time puppy parent and a bit of a helicopter parent but knowing she respected my guidelines made me feel so much better about leaving my little guy !”

About: I’ve had animals my whole life. First cats and then dogs. I grew up with 3 small dogs from when I was 6 until they passed away. At the end they were old ladies- one was diabetic and blind and the other had an array of health issues. Now my partner and I have two puppies, both around 30 lbs expected to be around 50. Animals make life better. I am currently working part time and have lots of time at home with the pups! i love animals more than anything, so they are always the priority in my days. We go to the dog park, go on lots of walks and even go swimming on the weekends! I have a very flexible schedule. I am well versed in crate and pad training. We have been training our puppies on how to walk on a leash as well as different tricks (stay being the most important).
About: I have been a dog owner for several years now! I understand what it’s like to worry about our four-legged children while we’re away from them. Not all of us get to have the luxury of having family and friends care for our pets when we can’t ourselves. My mission is to make sure they get enough play time, lots of love and yummy treats! I love taking my pups to the park, or on a hike as much as the weather permits, so if there’s a park nearby I’d be happy to bring them by to let off some energy. You won’t be disappointed with the care and attention your pets will recieve from me. So, rest assured they will be in good hands.
About: I had a cat for 6 years and plenty of experience handling and taking care of dogs - I volunteered in an animal shelter with dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens for 4 years. I am 5’7” and relatively strong so I am also able to handle larger dogs and some pulling. I have 3 years of experience as an EMT, so in case of an unexpected accident I am able to provide emergency first aid if necessary (helping a pet often involves the same basics as helping a person!) I have a lot of availability at the moment. Weekdays and weekends are nearly always free, especially for walking and check-ins. I love to be outside and walk/run, especially with dogs. I don't have any pets living with me right now, so I will be free to focus on yours. I am active and love taking dogs for a walk or run anywhere and for however long they need.
“Diana has done a great job with all of our pets! She’s very communicative and makes sure they’re well taken care of. I appreciate that she sends plenty of pictures during her visits to show us how our pets are doing ☺️”
“Yaneira is great! She watched my kitty Sydney for over a week and did exactly what I asked for and more! I truly felt comfortable being on vacation knowing that Sydney was in Yaneira's hands. She is professional and loves animals, which was easy to tell from when she met Sydney. I will definitely be using Yaneira again the next time I need to go out of town. She is very responsible and committed :)”
About: While I am new to Rover, I have a lifetime of experience loving and taking care of dogs. Whether I am stopping in, taking them on a walk, or boarding — I guarantee your pet will be loved, exercised, fed, happy and safe. I am also happy to set up a meet and greet to ensure the perfect fit. I’m currently a graduate student looking for part time work. My schedule is flexible. Please message me with any of your scheduling requests and needs. I am happy to care for your pet right in your home where they are comfortable or in my apartment with a small outdoor patio, if needed.
“Alexandra was great all around!! She did multiple drop-ins a day and took great care of my senior dog and cat. She was prompt, reliable, friendly and communicated very well & always took a lot of pictures which I really appreciated. Highly recommend Alexandra!”
“Kathryn was eager to meet my boys prior to our trip. This puts everyone at ease. It’s something I look for when choosing a new pet care provider. Kathryn followed all my instructions and was communicative all during our trip. My boys were happy and content when we got home.”

They are well taken care of and treated like one of the family. We have a fenced in yard and our "guests" enjoy being outside with us.

About: My love for dogs started when I was just a little kid I would spend hours playing with everyone’s dog in the neighborhood...I currently own a 13 year old yorkie and also an energetic 1 yr old frenchie. I often watch all friends and family pets as well..I am available for walks, feedings, baths etc...If you’d like to go on vacation but want to have peace of mind ( Your pup is in great hands ) I’ve been there so I understand what it is to have to leave and be anxious about your little best friend not being properly cared for. I also love playing and doing whatever else they may need..I am more than happy to serve your pets needs knowing they are like family to most of us these days ❤️ I currently have flexibility in the late afternoons and also weekends to watch your dog. I will do my best to accommodate your schedule etc. I have an area at home that’s pet proof and ready with toys, comfy pet beds, blankets and everything your baby will need while you’re away.
About: Exceptional care for dogs of all breeds. Truely a dog lover that will give your dog all the attention it needs and deserves! I am very flexible and active, what else would you want in a dog sitter! I have owned a dog my entire life and anyone who has a dog turns to me first to ask if I can watch their dogs! People would nickname me “an animal whisperer” as I seem to get along with all dogs difficult or not. I’ve dealt with the sweetest to aggressive pups! No matter the size, I am confident that I am capable to care and love your dog as needed! You’ll be passing up a great opportunity! Once your dog meets me you’ll forget passed sitters!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over five years, and I have two small dogs of my own that I love. I’m organized, responsible, and attentive, and I provide each dog with personalized care, walks, and playtime. I also prioritize clear communication with owners, just as I appreciate when someone cares for my own pets. I’m available all week, including weekends. Just reach out and we can discuss your schedule. I kindly ask owners to be honest about their pets’ needs and behavior so I can provide the best care and avoid any issues during their stay. I prefer to care for pets at my home, where I can provide a safe and comfortable environment. I offer boarding only for small dogs, as I live on a 2nd floor, and I have a backyard where pets can play at least twice a day, along with neighborhood walks. My goal is for every dog to have a happy and enjoyable stay. For any specific details or questions, feel free to contact me.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Saddle Brook
Kendall, really helped us out when our plans for a dog sitter fell through. I had never used Rover before and Kendall made this experience great. She was very detailed and the pictures she took let us know she really cared for our dogs while we were away at the day for a wedding.
Nicole has been a great sitter for my two cats. We were away for a week and she took really good care of them. My cats have special needs and she followed my request diligently. Her background as a vet tech allows her to handle my cats with confidence and care. She FaceTimed me everyday during the visit so I had great peace of mind. She was very gentle with the cats and they love her. I’ll surely book her again for my next vacation.
Christina is such a wonderful pet sitter! She has been so caring and patient with our two cats. One of our cats needs multiple medicines and the other is quite shy and she has worked to get both to love her! All the while she’s been communicative, caring, and gone the extra mile. Christina is great and I can’t sing her praises enough!
I have a really nervous and picky dog, and he warmed up to Chris within minutes!! I’ve had several pet sitters over the years and the only one he loves is his grandpa (husband’s dad). However, Chris has met him three times now and based on pictures alone I can tell my little guy is feeling more and more comfortable each visit. I am definitely a repeat customer! I have another trip in the next couple weeks and am SO glad I can go away without worrying about the stress levels of my pup. Thanks so much Chris + Jack!!
Lillian was absolutely wonderful with our two Shih Tzus, Smokey and Bandit. From our initial meet-and-greet to a last-minute request for a walk and feeding, she was professional, reliable, and incredibly easy to communicate with. She kept us updated, responded promptly, and gave us complete peace of mind knowing our dogs were in great hands. It was clear that she genuinely cared for Smokey and Bandit, and they were happy and well cared for every time she looked after them. We highly recommend Lillian to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and caring dog sitter. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!
Erica is a devoted dog lover and sitter. From the very beginning (soon after my initial request) and all throughout her visits, she kept in regular contact and always communicated clearly and kindly. Our dog Ranger never had it so good. She kept us updated with photos of his activities and the love and care she provided. We'll definitely have her back. She has our highest recommendation!
Honest feedback here - I was a little hesitant in using Xavier as he was young without too many years of experience, but I was in a bind and my last two sitters flaked - I saw that he was rated as a star sitter though with great reviews, so moved forward here and I am so glad I did. His communication skills are above the charts. He is extremely responsive, communicates very well (seems to truly care about your pets and their needs) and was always great about texting updates and photos - Too boot, he was extremely accommodating as the drive was a bit far, but he knew I was in a bind and took the job without hesitation - Moreover, he was very punctual and came at the times I needed him too. I can't tell you how nice it was to come home after my trip to a home where it was very easy to see my babies were well looked after and taken care of - Lastly, he has very good energy and I felt good leaving my babies in his hands even though was a stranger -

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Saddle Brook is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $35 per visit. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 27,390 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Saddle Brook. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Saddle Brook. On Rover:
- 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 87% 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.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
