About: I grew up with both dogs and cats, and caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs belonging to friends, family members, and clients—including dogs with anxiety, especially while their owners are traveling. Many of these dogs had previously stayed in large commercial boarding facilities where multiple dogs share the same space, which often increased their stress and anxiety. I’ve seen firsthand how much of a difference a calm home environment and personalized one-on-one attention can make. I am also certified in American Red Cross Cat and Dog First Aid, so I’m prepared to respond in case of an emergency and provide attentive care for your pets. I focus on patience, consistency, and gentle, loving care to help each dog feel safe, comfortable, and secure. With dedicated attention and companionship, I’ve watched anxious dogs gradually become more relaxed and confident—sometimes they even seem reluctant to leave! :) I’m home full-time to care for your pup. This means your dog will receive plenty of attention, regular walks, and consistent, loving care throughout the day. I have the time and flexibility to focus on your dog’s individual needs, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for during their stay. I keep my schedule flexible, but I only care for one dog at a time to provide the best possible experience. Because of this, spots can fill quickly—especially during holidays—so please plan and book in advance. Located in a quiet, friendly neighborhood, my home is designed to provide comfort, security, and plenty of room for your dog to relax and play. Your pup will enjoy a park-like backyard—nearly half an acre—fully fenced for safe exploration and outdoor fun. Whether they love to run, sniff, or simply lounge in the sun, there’s plenty of space to feel at home. In the summer, I also set up a dog-friendly swimming pool so they can cool off and have some extra fun. I share my home with a very friendly 9-year-old Black Lab who is gentle, well-socialized, and enjoys calm companionship with other dogs. To ensure every dog gets the attention, care, and comfort they deserve, I typically host only one dog at a time (with a maximum of two during holidays). This allows me to focus on your dog’s individual needs and create a low-stress, personalized experience. Your dog will be treated like family here—safe, happy, and well cared for every step of the way.
“First time using Rover and this family was very accommodating. From their communication and assistance with app questions, the experience was hands down exceptional. We were away for 4 nights and they made us feel like Pickles was safe with our family. Could not recommend them any more.”
“Aeli was very responsive and caring with our dog. We were really appreciative that she sent photos on a regular basis and asked questions to ensure he sticks to his usual routine.”
“Joannie was great with everything! So happy we found her to watch our senior dog Layla. Communication was great from the start to the end. Joannie made Layla feel so at home and loved.”
“Wonderful experience with Pam during this 9-day stay for our dog Peggy! Great care, great host family, great neighborhood for walks, great communication. Great Everything! Thanks so much Pam.”
“I’m so glad I chose this sitter for Buddy! They gave me prompt and detailed updates exactly the way I’d requested, along with plenty of pictures that really put me at ease while I was away. I could tell from the photos and messages that Buddy was happy and well taken care of. They’re such sweet, responsible people, and I could truly relax knowing my little one was in good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Ankita was absolutely wonderful with my pet. From the start, she was professional, reliable, and incredibly kind. She treated my pet like her own and made sure every detail was taken care of while I was away. She kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear my pet felt comfortable and happy in her care. I truly appreciate the attention, love, and responsibility she showed. I highly recommend Anikita to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Ruby had the time of her life at Brittny's. She was SMILING in photos Brittny sent us. Brittny has a great home with an amazing backyard for the dogs to play in. Her family dog was a great sibling for Ruby. I think Ruby misses Benji! Thank you Brittny and your whole family for taking such good care of our girl. Will definitely board Ruby with you again in the future if possible!”
“I couldn't have asked for a better experience with the dog sitters who took care of my two furry companions. Their daily picture updates were a delightful touch that kept me reassured and connected throughout my time away. It was evident that they genuinely cared for my dogs' well-being, as each snapshot captured their happiness and comfort!”
“Oliver loved staying at Ksenia's. Her place was clean and welcoming and he felt right at home. She is a great communicator and sent lots of picture updates. He can't wait to go back!”
“Kun is the best dogsitter out there. We have hired him three times and he has consistently taken excellent care of our Shih-Tzu. He sends us multiple pictures and videos daily and communicates well. We’ll seek him out again next time for our dogsitter needs.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Waldwick
Lily spent one overnight with Mi to get aquainted for her upcoming stay with her. We were so happy we did! Mi was very attentive to Lily regarding her special needs. She sent us great pictures of Lily and how her day was going. We will be able to relax knowing Lily is with a caring person while we are on vacation.
Allison took great care of my dog, Quinn. Quinn is a senior dog who can be a little anxious, and Allison kept me updated on how she was doing throughout her stay. She also has a fenced in backyard, which Quinn really enjoyed. Thank you for taking such good care of her!
Laura and Kevin were a great fit for my dog. They spent lots of time outdoors which is her favorite place to be. She's an older dog and not use to staying with people she doesn't know. On top of that, she was having intestinal issues and they still happily took her. They kept us updated with lots of check ins and pictures. We will definitely choose them again!
Jamen was great! He had our Doxie for a week during the holidays, and, I had no doubt that she was in great hands. Jamen had set up the house so that Doxie would be comfortable the whole time. Jamen sent pictures and updates, and, responded within minutes when I reached out to him. On top of that, he was flexible when my dates changed. I would work with Jamen again in a heartbeat!
Chris and Ellen their family and dog Whitley were perfect hosts for our Mia for a long weekend. Their fenced yard is fantastic and the dogs are able to run and play freely. They are very nurturing toward our dog and we were at ease knowing she was in such capable hands. We appreciated the photos and updates throughout. Thank you for taking such good care of our girl. We would highly recommend their services!

If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Waldwick 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 Waldwick.
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.
You and your Waldwick 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.
