About: Hi! I’m Jessica, and I’ve spent the last 18 years working hands-on in the pet industry. My career began in the PetSmart Pet Hotel, and since then I’ve managed multiple boarding facilities, worked as an animal control officer, mentored as a dog trainer, and now specialize in pet nutrition. Because of my background, I’m very comfortable with all personalities—especially pups who struggle in busy kennel environments. Over the years, I’ve opened my home to dogs with anxiety, behavioral quirks, medical needs, or those who just need a calmer, more personalized environment. I’ve cared for everything from dogs and cats to small animals and exotics, and I treat every pet like one of my own. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine will always be my top priorities. If you're looking for a sitter who is experienced, patient, and genuinely passionate about animals, I’m here to help! I currently have the option to work from or bring your furry baby to my pet friendly safe office space. I am a pet nutritionist! I care for pets by treating them as they are one of my own! I will work with you to understand what your individual pet needs to feel safe and comfortable while they stay with me.

About: Hello! I’m Mahia, a passionate dog lover with years of experience caring for our furry friends. I believe every dog deserves to feel loved and pampered, just like my own dog, Cookie, who lived like a princess! I’m committed to providing a safe, fun, and loving environment for your pup, ensuring they feel right at home with my patient and love for dogs. Let’s make every moment special for your dog! I can easily integrate pet care into my daily schedule as I have flexible hours and mostly working from home, and a routine that allows me to dedicate time to ensure your pet gets the attention they need. I have a dedicated area in my backyard for dogs to do their business, which helps keep things convenient and clean. Additionally, there’s a beautiful boardwalk next to the water, perfect for a peaceful two-mile walk, and a dog park nearby for some extra fun and socialization. Your dog will have plenty of space to play, exercise, and enjoy the outdoors.

Prior to confirming a new booking, I may request some form of verification of current prevention, such as a recent veterinary record, medication receipt, or photo of the current preventative product. This policy is in place as a preventative measure to help maintain a clean, safe, and comfortable environment for every animal staying in my home. Because pets are sharing the same environment, preventing the spread of fleas and ticks is an important part of keeping everyone healthy and comfortable during their stay. My number one priority is making sure every animal in my care feels safe, loved, comfortable, and well cared for throughout their stay—and ultimately goes home just as happy, if not happier, than when they arrived. ❤️ Thank you so much for understanding and helping me maintain a safe and healthy environment for all of my furry guests! 🐾 I have a pretty flexible schedule and for me its an honor and a privilege to spend my time taking care of your sweet fur babies ! taking care of animals is my favorite thing to do and its the best use of my free time, I always want to make time to fit you and your precious babies into my schedule ! 🩷 when caring for your animals its important that im very good and thorough at following instructions and making sure im always paying attention to the animal(s) in more ways then one, as well as making sure they are safe and always properly cared for...as for pet sitting at my place I have alot of space, toys and extra rooms for your fur babies to have their own space if they want it but my home is their home so they can hangout wherever ! they are always welcome to cozy up wherever they please. I also love going to the park and theirs many in my area to choose from for good walks or doggy picnics, with the summer heat im very cautious when walking to make sure doing more frequent short walks instead of long walks to avoid any issues with heat...with cats im down for a chill respectful "stare at eachother from a distance" haha (unless they want cuddles) then my lap or any of my furniture or high up ledges is their throne haha for me the most important thing is that every pet gets treated like their my own and it should feel like a vacation away from home ! always happy to provide constant updated photos/video/facetime etc with you and your fur baby 🩵 im also experienced in giving cats/dogs medicine if they ever need that as well as training in understanding that kind of body language as I have fostered a few animals back to health and just fostered for the sake of doing it, im excited to provide a loving fun get away for your fur baby 🩵 Experienced with -special needs cats/dogs -puppies/kittens -senior animals -cat friendly🐈💜 -rescue animals in training -big dog friendly -pit bull friendly💜 -experience handling multiple dogs/cats at once ( feel free to ask me any questions before booking, your pets needs and comfortability is priority ) Flea & Tick Prevention Policy For the health, safety, and comfort of every pet in my care, I require all dogs staying for boarding or daycare to be actively receiving flea and tick prevention.

About: I love caring for and being around animals. I have more than 5 years of experience caring for pets. They’re precious and deserve tender care. I have cared for dogs and cats through check ins, walks, and house sitting. I have mostly watched dogs or cats 3-4 or older. I have recently watched a kitten who is turning 1 soon and had a lot of fun so I’d be open to doing it again. I am a recent graduate starting a new job. Pet care would be more during my weekends and free time. Seeing animals when off work is such a reward! My current availability is spontaneous due to my varying work schedule so I always make sure to keep my availability on my calendar up to date. I have pet sit overnight in homes for dogs and cats. I learn quickly and take notes to assure I care for any pet well. I like to ask clients about what they typically do with their pet in a day that their pet will expect outside of feeding and walking time. This might include playing with toys once they come home for 15 minutes or treats after walks. I take pictures throughout my time with the pets to keep the owner(s) updated on what’s happening.

About: I’ve had animals all my life including cats, dogs, and I had a rabbit once. I’ve helped take care of sick dogs and cats, and have taken care of puppies and kittens. I was also apart of my animal club in high school where I got to donate to animal shelters and interacted with animals in that setting. I have a flexible schedule, so pet care can easily be a regular part of my day and week. I really enjoy spending time with animals and am happy to structure my routine around their needs, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company. I want every pet in my care to feel comfortable, loved, and well taken care of while their family is away. I care for every pet as if they were my own! I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while sticking to their normal routine as much as possible. I’m happy to follow any feeding, walking, medication, playtime, or bedtime instructions you provide. I also keep a close eye on their behavior and make sure their space stays clean and comfortable. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely at ease.

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if instructed), and any special care requests. I always make sure pets have fresh water, a clean and safe environment, and plenty of attention.

About: I am a Residnet Physician. When I am not in the hospital I am spending time with my dog in the park or on a hike.. I love getting to play and meet new dogs. I decided to start dog walking to spend more time doing the things that bring me joy. I am looking forward to meeting your dog! Hours will vary. As a resident physician, we changed schedules every two weeks. Sometimes I will be available during the day on weekdays. Other times I will just be available in the late afternoon. And on some weekends. Will fill up water and food bowl if needed after visit. Please let me know if your dog has any “pet peeves”, sensitivities or allergies.

About: Caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I have experience providing both pet care and house sitting for families while they’re away for work, vacations, and other commitments. I’ve cared for dogs of different sizes and personalities, as well as cats and birds. I understand that trusting someone with your pet — especially in a world where pets are the new children and plants are the new pets — and your home is a big decision. I take that responsibility seriously. I’m dependable, patient, attentive, and respectful of each pet’s individual personality and routine. Communication is important to me, but I also understand that you’re probably away to enjoy your trip — not spend it checking your phone every ten minutes. You can expect thoughtful photo updates and check-ins so you know how things are going without being overwhelmed with messages. Of course, if you’re the pet parent who wants ALL the pictures, I can do that too! My goal is simple: you enjoy your time away, your pet enjoys their time with me, and everybody is happy when you get home. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! 🐾 When ever someone has need I can be available most morning and afternoons. Therefore as long as we schedule it based on your needs we can make it work. I follow an exact guidelines for what the pet owners provide. In addition I look to get the pet to be comfortable around me so when I come around they see someone they know

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.

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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Secaucus on Rover is $31.08 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 26,564 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Secaucus. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

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 .

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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Secaucus. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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.
