About: I treat dogs as real babies and children. I have had my dog Hachi for over 3 years now and understand the expectations and standards that I would require from someone caring for him. I intend to uphold those same standards when it comes to supervision, walks, feeding, playtime, and other various needs. I am in college working at a steakhouse part time roughly 3-4 nights a week. Looking for morning to mid-day gigs throughout the summer and partially when school begins again. I wake up at the same time every morning to walk and feed my dog and the same time every night. Both my dog and cat are fed twice a day with varying diets depending on their health needs. They are shown constant love and affection and my dog gets plenty of play time and time outside

About: Hello! My name is Janet, and I am dog mom to the 2 most wonderful rescue pups from DCAS, Georgie (our lovable and snuggly pittie basset hound mix) and Cleo (our sassy terrier mix diva with the fierce brows to match the ‘tude). I have had dogs in my home for most of my life, with ages starting from 11 weeks old up until the end of their precious and short lives... and from a wee few pounds up to 77 pounds of muscle! As my husband would say of me, I have never met a dog I didn’t love immediately. I love to play fetch or tug with the energetic pups, give belly rubs to the lush ones, and snuggle with every pup I meet.
“I completely trust Calvin to look after my two cats while I’m away. I always come back to find them happy and well cared for. He responds quickly and scheduling a visit with him is always easy. I really appreciate his help taking care of my cats.”


About: I have been surrounded by pets and caring for them since I was a child. For years, I’ve been the go-to trusted pet sitter for my family, cousins, and neighbors, helping them feed, walk, and look after their furry friends. Currently, I am the proud owner and primary caretaker of my dog, Jet. Having my own pet has taught me so much about routine, patience, and the unique needs of dogs. I will treat your pups with the exact same love, dedication, and attention that I give to my own. I currently balance my schedule with flexible part-time commitments, which gives me plenty of open hours and flexibility to dedicatedly look after your pups. I have ample time throughout the week for structured walks, engaging playtime, and maintaining their usual feeding routines without any rush. Whether it is providing dedicated care during the day or keeping them active, my schedule allows me to be highly attentive and completely present for your dog's daily needs. Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities when caring for your pet. I provide a highly secure, welcoming, and loving environment where your furry family member will feel right at home. I make sure to closely supervise all activities, follow your specific house rules, and strictly adhere to any feeding, walking, or medical guidelines you provide. Your dog will receive constant attention, care, and a safe space to feel completely comfortable, happy, and loved while you are away.

About: About this sitter: Just moved to Weehawken. I grew up with dogs and have always been a huge dog lover and have plenty of pet care experience. My Labrador, Maizie, recently passed away, and Im now ready to be around dogs again. It's been a huge loss for me, and I currently can't have a dog where I live. I am in much need of some dog love. If you're looking for someone who is a true dog lover and will give a ton of love and attention to your pet, this includes any pets you have. Please reach out, and we can set up a time to do a meet and greet. I currently work during the day, but I will be available from 4:30 pm to 10 pm. Weekends, I am available as well; times vary. I offer dog walking, pet sitting, drop-in visits, house sitting, and overnight stays, depending on clients' and animals' needs. I'm very respectful of privacy and personal space when I am house-sitting or doing overnight stays. If you need a background check, I can provide that information.
“Daisy was absolutely phenomenal! She took such great care of my cat. She always kept me up to date when coming, took loads of photos, left everything so tidy, and gave my cat lots of love. My cat is quite old and needs meds, she did a great job with that too!”


“Always great to have Daniela visit our two cats, who love to see her. She provides them their ‘evening’ treats and spends time to love them up when we are away. It’s a great comfort to have Dani visit and ensure all is well when we are away.”

About: There are many dogs in my family and so I have had quite the experience with them, during all stages of life. Now, it’s been a few years with my own pup and making the most of every day and walk with him. I hope to be able to do the same for other families! I have my own dog, a mini poodle who is now 6 years old. As such, I am used to pet care on the daily. I put a strong priority on safety and trust with your pet and family. While caring for a pup while in your home, I will abide by respectful rules and whatever is asked of me!

I have extensive experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds, as well as an invaluable background working in the veterinary department of an animal center. I am also Fear Free trained, which means I use specialized techniques to prevent and alleviate fear, anxiety, and stress in pets. This experience allows me to understand dog behavior deeply and handle pets with special needs, anxiety, or high energy. At home, I have a cat named Amber who prefers not to live with dogs. Because of this, my home boarding is exclusively open to foster cats. I am happy to offer walking, drop-in visits and pet sitting.

Whether it’s maintaining a strict feeding schedule, timely medication administration, or structured walks, I ensure their day looks exactly like it does when you are home. Keeping a consistent routine is key to minimizing stress. Safety is my top priority. Thanks to my experience in a veterinary shelter department and Fear Free training I create a secure environment for every pet.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Secaucus
Victoria was fabulous! She took care of our epileptic dog while we were on vacation, making sure he had his medicine on time every day, twice a day. He adores her! Even though we were on the other side of the world, we never had to worry about him. Our other dog is afraid of her own shadow, but I saw her warming up very slowly to Victoria. I can’t wait to book her for more visits.

We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! Julia went above and beyond in every way—keeping us updated regularly, sending photos, and truly caring for our pet as if it were her own. It gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Reliable, kind, and attentive—we highly recommend her!

This was our first time working with Hayley. She was incredibly patient, kind and understanding of our seniors (one with special needs), and genuinely invested in learning each of their particular personalities. Moving to a new area and having to start over in finding trustworthy care for our little grandpas has been a challenge to say the least. We are grateful to have connected with Hayley and cannot recommend her care enough.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Secaucus stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Secaucus choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Secaucus with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
