“Janise and her family took excellent care of my girl Moni. She sent regular updates and was quick to reply to my messages. Her home is in a nice neighborhood with a really nice sized yard with a fence that closes securely. Her dog Frankie is a sweet girl who got a long great with my pup. I was out of the country for a week and never once worried about my pup being safe and well cared for! I would happily leave my dog with her again and anyone reading this review can book her with confidence that your dog will be well cared for and safe.”
“Euitae was great with my puppy! Communicated with me well throughout the time, sent photos and videos. I felt comfortable leaving her with a new boarder and would work with Euitae again!”
“This was my first time having Michael take care of my dog, and I’m so glad I chose him. I was truly impressed by his quick responses, the daily updates with photos, and his thoughtful and attentive care. I was especially worried because my dog is a senior, but Michael took such wonderful care of her and gave me great peace of mind. I feel incredibly lucky to have found such a wonderful sitter. I would definitely trust him with her again!”
“Sabrina is incredible and took special care of my dog. She keeps in constant contact with photos and videos. This was my first time using Rover and I will definitely book with Sabrina again. 10/10 fully recommend her!”
“Chloe and her husband were once again amazing with our dog! While we were away for the weekend we received tons of pictures of George looking happy and settled while at their place :)”
“Thank you, Beautifull, for taking such incredible care of my dogs! I am forever grateful for everything you did while I was away. She cared for my two senior dogs for an entire week and kept me updated every step of the way. She sent me photos during their walks and regularly checked in with updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. Whenever anything came up, she let me know right away. Since my dogs are seniors, they experienced some anxiety being away from home and even had a little stomach upset, which can happen when they’re stressed. She handled everything with so much patience, care, and compassion, and made sure I was informed throughout the entire stay. It was clear that she genuinely cared about their well-being and treated them like they were her own. Knowing they were in such loving hands allowed me to truly enjoy my trip without constantly worrying about them. I trust her completely and will absolutely book with her again in the future. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, communicative, compassionate, and truly loves animals, I cannot recommend her enough. Your pets will be in amazing hands!”
“It’s so sweet and comforting to see how Ryan and Jefra treat Buttercup like their own. This was the first time I’ve left him with a sitter for so long (two weeks) and he got special treats, snuggles, and playtime in their hallway while it stormed in New York. I got updates anytime I asked, and as usual Jefra took stunning pictures of him that are hard to believe are just iphone photos! Anytime we come by with him they’re friendly, and easy to talk to as well. Would highly recommend.”
“Troy and Sal truly gives love and care! After much anxious prestage fright of leaving my precious Cavalier for 8days though highly recommended by another Rover service using friends, I cannot recommend them enough. Great communicators and kind. Kensie returned full of joy and health. Thanks so much both and we hope to see you in the near future!”
“Angela (and her partner Dan) took great care of Truffle. They sent meticulous updates with photos throughout the day. Truffle got to spend plenty of time outside and was very comfortable in their home.”
“Ysabel was the most wonderful pet sitter our little Tommy has ever had the pleasure of staying with! It was truly a five-star vacation for him. Ysabel has such a natural way with animals, and it was clear from the very beginning that Tommy felt completely at home with her and was thoroughly spoiled! We received daily updates with plenty of photos and videos of Tommy being pampered, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious how much care, attention, and affection Ysabel gave him throughout his stay. I could not recommend Ysabel more highly and would absolutely trust her with Tommy again. Thank you so much, Ysabel, for taking such wonderful care of our little guy!”
“Christa was absolutely lovely with our yorkie-mix, Bowie. She and her husband were very attentive and welcoming. Their dog, Dolce, was equally welcoming and seemed to get along great with our pup. I would definitely recommend Christa to anyone who is looking for a personal and caring sitter for their pet. Thanks, again Christa!”
“Bridget is an excellent dog sitter. Our pyredoodle is a bundle of separation anxiety, for us and him. Bridget sent frequent updates and pictures showing how well he was doing and allaying our concerns. Highly recommended.”
“We picked up our large malamute Junie and she was the calmest we had seen her, clearly very happy. Communication with Anton was very easy and he sent several pictures throughout the stay. Will book again!”

“My fur baby, Bruno, absolutely adores Anne! He gets so excited for his visits with her. Bruno is a high energy pup, and she is very attentive to his needs. I have peace of mind leaving my pup with her knowing that he is in a safe, clean and calm environment. Highly recommend!! 😊”
“Cooper had a great time with Marcus and Antonio. They took the time to ask questions so they could understand his schedule and habits and treated him like a king from the moment we dropped him off. They sent lots of photos and videos, and it seemed like Coop was having more fun than when he's at home with us! He was a very tired and happy pup by the end of his visit. He will definitely be back the next time we have to go out of town.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Secaucus
We had an outstanding experience with Chi-Wing caring for our 9-year-old Golden Retriever, Boomer. We were naturally nervous about leaving him while we attended the New York City Marathon, but Chi immediately put our minds at ease. We started receiving photos almost right away and continued to get updates throughout the entire stay. The constant communication, including pictures and videos of Boomer eating, playing, and relaxing, allowed us to fully enjoy our trip knowing he was happy and well cared for. It was clear that Boomer was treated like part of the family. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust Chi-Wing with him again. Highly recommend!
We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Neerav! What stood out the most was his genuine passion, care, and patience, especially with our stubborn little pup when it came to eating. Anyone who has a picky eater knows how challenging that can be, but Neerav went above and beyond to make sure our fur baby was comfortable, cared for, and eating well. His attentiveness, dedication, and affection gave us complete peace of mind. It was clear that he treats the pups in his care with genuine love rather than just seeing it as a job. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would wholeheartedly recommend Neerav to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and truly dedicated to their furry family members. We would absolutely love to book with him again!
I can’t recommend Janise enough! Ollie has stayed with her several times now, for both short and extended stays, and I genuinely couldn’t be happier with the care he receives. He always has the best time with Janise, her family, and their adorable dog Frankie! Janise is incredibly responsive and always keeps me updated with pictures, videos, and messages throughout his stay, which gives me so much peace of mind. Ollie always looks so happy and comfortable in her care, and it’s clear he’s treated like part of the family. I’m so glad we found Janise and will absolutely continue booking with her. Highly recommend!
I was initially very nervous about leaving Enzo with a pet sitter, but seeing the daily updates gave me so much peace of mind! 💗 Annie took such wonderful care of Enzo, and it honestly felt like a little vacation for him! 🐾💕 I could tell he was happy, comfortable, and well-loved throughout his stay. Annie will definitely be my go-to pet sitter from now on. I couldn’t recommend her enough! 🥰
We can't say enough good things about Stephanie! Bowen stayed with her this weekend and had an amazing time. He got tons of social time and Stephanie kept us in the loop with several check-ins and photos. The best sign of all was when we picked him up, Bowen turned around and went back to Stephanie to say goodbye! It was adorable and told us everything we needed to know about how much he enjoyed his stay. We'll definitely be booking with Stephanie again. Thank you for taking such great care of our boy!
Amanda was absolutely wonderful! From start to finish, she made the whole experience so easy and gave us one less thing to worry about while we were away. She was great with communication, always keeping us updated with messages and photos of Grizzly, which really meant a lot to us. What I appreciated most was how understanding and accommodating she was with our hectic schedule, especially when we had to deal with flight delays. She was incredibly flexible and made a stressful travel situation that much easier. It’s never easy leaving your dog behind, but knowing Grizzly was in good hands gave us real peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy our family vacation. We’re truly grateful for Amanda’s kindness, patience, and care. We wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with Grizzly again. Highly recommend!
Steven is officially our puppy’s favorite sitter! 🐶❤️ He took such amazing care of Burrito over the weekend, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Burrito was so happy, comfortable, and well looked after throughout his stay, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Steven was so thoughtful and attentive, and we really appreciated the regular updates and adorable pictures he sent us. It was lovely to see Burrito having such a great time and getting so much love and attention! We’re so grateful to have found someone we can trust with our little one. It’s not always easy leaving your puppy with someone else, but Steven made the whole experience stress-free and gave us complete peace of mind. We would absolutely book with him again. Thank you so much, Steven, for taking such great care of our Burrito! 🐾💕
Jessica took the best care of our pup yet again! He was so excited to see them and clearly remembered them, which made me feel completely at ease. We had absolutely no worries while we were away! After booking with them twice now, I can confidently say they’re our go-to dog sitters!
Ellie was great with Ozzy during his whole stay. He is very suspicious of new people but he quickly warmed up to her and got many cuddles. She also kept us updated with texts and photos throughout the stay and we will definitely have him stay over with her again in the future!
I truly cannot express with words what a star Sitter Yuliia is! She is incredible to work with, asked all the Right questions before I dropped off Louie to make sure she knew everything there was to know about taking care of him. She was super communicative. Made the pick up and drop off Seamless. She sent me photos and updates throughout my trip and really put me at ease. My flight was delayed on the way home and she said it was no problem at all, and that my Louis was safe and sound, and she even offered to take care of him an additional night if needed, which really put my anxiety at ease. And then, of course, due to the delay my plans were disrupted for an event that I had that evening, and she even went above and beyond to drop Louie off at my place so that I wasn’t late to my event. If I could give her 100 stars and $1 million dollars to be my permanent sitter for Louis - trust me I would! but definitely will be booking her every single time on priority going forward.

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 Secaucus 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 Secaucus 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 Secaucus.
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 Secaucus. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% 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 Secaucus 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.
