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.

“Chi-Wing was very accommodating and kept us informed of how our little boy was doing via texts and pictures. We are definitely using her services again.”
“Jessica was great with Coconut! He had a blast! She was very responsive and flexible with setting up a meet and greet. She really cares about the safety and well being of the dogs staying with her. From the meet and greet it was clear she has a way with dogs 🐶. She’ll definitely be my go-to from now on.”
“Courtney is simply the best! She has been such a huge help with potty training my puppy, Sonny, and goes above and beyond to make sure he’s comfortable and happy. As a puppy new to the city, he’s needed extra care, and Courtney has been so hands-on, positive, and kind throughout the process. I literally walk out of my way to bring him to her because he gets SO excited to see her every time! Knowing he’s in such great hands gives me so much peace of mind. Highly recommend!”
“Alejandra was very welcoming to our dog’s stay at her place. She sent me photos of him during the stay and he looked very calm and happy in her company. I am very happy to have met her and will definitely consider to rebook with her.”
“Sophia is the best! She sent me so many photos throughout the day :) because my dog has medical issues, she took so much care in paying close attention to him throughout the day and updating me. ❤️❤️”

“Jinghong is a very caring sitter. My dog Bacon fell in love with her starting from meet and greet. Bacon was well taken care of, and I really appreciated the updates and photos. It was obvious he was happy and comfortable during his stay. Thank you for treating him with such care—I would absolutely book with you again and highly recommend you to others!”
“Mihika was an attentive caretaker who followed up with specific questions during my pup’s stay. I can tell she wants to make the dogs feel comfortable and safe while they’re with her. She sent multiple photos during the day and was a reliable communicator throughout. Would recommend and reach out to again in the future!”
“We were visiting NY for summer vacation with our doggy from NS, Canada and were very worried about sitter for doggy as they’re not allowed in most of the sight seeing places. Angelina took care of Bow even though it was last minute booking and was really friendly in taking care of big dog like Bow. Right from sending pictures of Bow to responding to messages, she’s prompt and kind. I would highly recommend her as a sitter.”
About: I've always had dogs in my life growing up and recently have gotten a puppy on my own! However, I moved to Jersey for my post-doctoral fellowship and was unable to bring her with me. I have a well trained 5 year-old doodle that I miss a ton! I love long walks and would be awesome to bring your furry friend with me and I can definitely leash train while on walks as well. your pet remains clean, comfortable, and happy throughout their stay. You can expect timely updates and photos so you can see how well your furry friend is doing. Your pet will be in a loving and attentive environment, receiving the best care possible. I currently work from home so I will have plenty of time with your pups! I love training dogs and I would say it is my specialty. I have a fenced in dog area and lots of parks around my neighborhood that I would love to take your dog around. We'll enjoy long walks then just park up on the couch watching TV.

Chi-wing is amazing and took exceptional care of my furbabies! He kept me updated throughout their stay and regularly sent photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. From the moment they arrived, Chi-wing and his wife gave my babies such a warm and loving welcome, making them feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. Knowing they were in such caring and trustworthy hands allowed me to truly relax while I was away. They were incredibly attentive, receptive, and responsive to my furbabies’ needs, ensuring they received all the love, care, and comfort they deserved. I will definitely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a safe, loving, and reliable place for their furbabies. Thank you again for taking such wonderful care of my babies. See you again soon! ❤️
Leah is a wonderful pet sitter. Luke enjoyed his time with her; communication was excellent and familiar. Her place has a backyard with a fence, and the area where she lives is safe and beautiful for dogs. She was responsible and cared for my furry baby. Highly recommended!
Ivette & Gonzalo were great! Gabriel was very shy during the beginning of his stay and they were so patient and sweet with Gabriel allowing him to come out of his shell and become comfortable with his surroundings. He seemed happy and content when we picked him up. They also sent me so many nice pics and videos throughout the day, giving me peace of mind. Will definitely book with them again.
Jinjoo was amazing with Scooby! From the start, her communication was clear, timely, and very reassuring, which made me feel completely at ease. She shared regular updates with full details and photos, showing that Scooby had a steady and safe routine. Scooby clearly enjoyed being with her and Riley. I noticed she paid close attention to daily habits and followed through on each need. The entire experience went smoothly and was very positive. Im certain any pet parent would feel confident choosing Jinjoo for care. Id definitely bring Scooby back to her again.
Saldin was very sweet, informative, and kind with my sweet baby girl Bella. Definitely would book again! Very accommodating to my requests for taking care of Bella. Saldin also sent me lots of pictures and videos of her. If you need a sitter, please contact her right away! It's hard looking for the right ones but I am glad I found her!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Secaucus commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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.

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.
