“Randi was great! She Took care of our two cats while we were out of town for the week. She made sure to take photos and keep us updated with how they were doing the whole time!”

“Emma did an excellent job taking care of Maruko when we were away on a long vacation. She always sent detailed and efficient updates and she always took great photos. We really enjoyed working with her. Emma also helped fix our litter robot when it was not functioning well. She was very capable and figured it out quickly. From our experience, she really did above and beyond. Try her and you won’t disappoint.”
About: I've been a cat and dog owner since I was 7, I always loved animals and I have been through many stages of learning about them. In my life I've had more cats that I rescued from the streets to adopt them and give them a fair life, and with dogs I have the patience to understand them and emphatize with them to become their friend. I'm a student and part time worker looking for a new experience in my life and some new ways of having extra income to survive the city and pay for my own bills. I have a lot of extra time after classes and also some weekends and I'm willing and excited to make this work. I will follow instructions of the owner for extra care and will also add my extra attention to the pet I'm taking care of.
“Javier took great care of my cat for two weeks and was always kind, reliable, and responsible. I truly appreciate his dedication and would definitely ask for his help again. Highly recommended.”
About: Hey there! I'm Denise, and when I'm not working my hybrid schedule as a marketing lead, you'll find me hanging out with my family and friends! I've been offering pet care since 2020. In 2023, I joined Trusted House Sitters, which gave me the opportunity to care for all sorts of dogs across the U.S. — from quick holiday visits to multi-week stays. I've become a go-to sitter for many of these families, getting to know their pets of various ages, sizes, or backgrounds. Even though I don't have my own pets right now, I absolutely adore the chance to connect with your furry companions through Rover. Creating a safe, happy, and stress-free space for your pets (and for you!) is my top priority. I'm super responsive, so don't hesitate to send a message whenever you're ready. I can't wait to meet you and your fur baby! Being on a hybrid work schedule (in the office twice a week) gives me lots of opportunity to spend time with your wonderful pets! I'm available for dog walks of various lengths and can also provide general pet care like feeding, playtime, and ensuring they have fresh water during the week and all weekend. If I'm popping over to your place or your furry friend is hanging out with me, it's all about making sure they're happy and comfy! I’ll stick to their usual routine - food, potty breaks, walks, playtime - and keep you in the loop with updates.
“Lana was a loving mom to our cat Aeva! Lana not only gave food and cleaned poop, she played and spoilt Aeva until she purred contentedly... Lana even visited her twice on a day where she had a family event and is not business minded whatsoever!”
“My cats came out for the first time ever. They trust only one other sitter. She is that good! Definitely am going to keep using her in the future.”
About: I have experience with brachiocephalic breeds as I have three of my own! I have experience working as a Dog Handler at a popular doggy daycare who handled up to 30 dogs. I have experience with puppies and seniors with arthritis. I’m currently working full-time as a Medical Assistant at an Urgent Care and have a few days off during the week where I can fit walking your pup at a daily! I am very careful with anything that is laying out when it comes to my puppers especially living with two pugs who will eat anything and everything!
“I couldn't be happier with Brynne’s work! She followed all of my instructions to the letter and truly went above and beyond to make sure Harley was well taken care of. It was so reassuring to see how well she engaged and played with my cat during her time here— Harley absolutely loved the attention. Her communication was excellent and gave me complete peace of mind. I would gladly book her services again without hesitation. Highly recommended!”
“Leslie was reliable and helped us understand how everything worked since we were Rover.com first timers. We really appreciated the regular communication and all the pics Leslie sent while checking in on our dog. I'd recommend Leslie to anyone.”
“Klaudia is amazing!! I came back to her again for her drop in visit to take care of our cat Mian. She is professional, flexible, easy to communicate with and most importantly, our cat loves her! She is an 10 out of 10 cat sitter, strongly recommend :)”
About: I'm new to professional pet sitting, but I've always been a responsible and dependable animal lover. As a teacher, I'm used to being patient, attentive, and organized, and I bring those same qualities to caring for pets. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you're away. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, feeding, medication reminders, or simply some extra attention and companionship, I'm committed to providing reliable care and keeping you updated with photos and messages. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. As a teacher, my schedule is very flexible during the summer, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I'm available for drop-in visits, dog walks, and pet sitting throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I work hard to accommodate their regular routines and provide dependable care when their owners are away. I believe that every pet deserves patient, attentive, and compassionate care. Whether I am caring for your pet in your home or taking them on walks, I will follow your instructions closely to maintain their normal routine and ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I have a yard that provides a safe outdoor space for supervised play, exercise, and fresh air. I prioritize clear communication, reliability, and respect for both your pet and your home. I have a yard with open space as
“Mariam is fantastic!!! I was on vacation for a week and came home to a happy, calm, and playful fur baby. My little kitty princess struggles with separation anxiety so it’s always tough when I’m gone for a few days, let alone a full week. Mariam worked her magic and my kitty did great. I highly recommend her!”
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 full time student and have a job outside of this. Pet care would be more during my weekends and free time. Seeing animals when not in class or working is such a reward! My current availability is Friday after 3 PM, anytime Saturday and Sunday, and before 5 PM on Monday. 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 love doing pet phone calls for clients who want to check in with their pet in real time! A quick FaceTime call can bring such ease to a pet parent and such joy to their pet.
About: I love playing with cats and I have 2 cats myself. And a family cat at my parents that I look after often. It’s difficult for full-time workers to look after their pets so I’m willing to help out in my free time! I work from home so I am able to provide any services. From time-to-time I cat-sit for my friends and people in my building. I work hybrid (1-2 days in office and mainly at home) so I can make myself available any time for pet-sitting. I love walking and feeding dogs, and can make house stops for kitties! I have 2 cats and my family has one cat at home. I was the one to introduce cats to my family and we’ve never looked back. I love to play with my cats everyday, keep them engaged and feed them healthy/prescription food. I keep my home clean and clean the litter box everyday. The service I’d offer is going in person to play with the cat(s), feed them and clean the litter box and take out the litter when the owners are away.
“Christine went above and beyond. She was very communicative, punctual, and gave me amazing advice about how to curb some of my cats behavioral issues. Definitely will rebook”

Rachel was an amazing pet sitter for my babies! When I arrived home, everything was spotless, clean, and well taken care of. My dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly received lots of love and attention while I was away. I highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!
Itati and Ronald were amazing!!!! Holly was well taken care of by them!! They helped me tremendously with my anxiety of leaving her alone for the first time. They kept me up to date on her and sent me Pics! Loved that they let me know about her potty breaks and if she ate or didn’t. Thank you so much!! We will be booking again!!
Huge shoutout to Loretto for taking such amazing care of Amara! He was so attentive, dependable, and awesome with communication while I was away. Amara absolutely loved him, and it gave me total peace of mind seeing how well cared for she was. 10/10 would recommend him to anyone!
Katia was fantastic with our cat and dog. Shes friendly, followed our instructions, and was always super prompt and communicative - even helping us bring in a package. It’s so nice to find a reliable sitter in our new neighborhood. We’ll definitely be rebooking with her - thanks again Katia ☺️
Tessa has been wonderful 😊 Arya took well to her rather quickly which was impressive. She's always respectful and provides me a full detailed report. Of course, photos too! With my new commute and insane schedule, she has been so accommodating and a gem. Arya and I are lucky to have her 🐕🙃

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Weehawken stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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 Weehawken 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 Weehawken with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.

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.
