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.
“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: Hi! My name is Natty, and caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I have experience taking care of multiple dogs and cats, including my own pets: a sweet beagle named Harley, a golden retriever named Layla, and three rescued cats named Benito, Minnie, and Oreo, all of whom were adopted as strays and became part of our family. Being surrounded by animals every day has taught me how important patience, attention, and love are when caring for pets. I understand that every animal has their own personality and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply keeping pets company, I truly enjoy spending time with animals and treating them like family. I am very responsible, caring, and communicative, and I will always provide updates and photos for peace of mind. I would love the opportunity to care for your furry family members and make them feel happy and loved! I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time, attention, and care to your pets throughout the day. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends for walks, drop-ins, boarding, and playtime! I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including my own pets at home. I always make sure animals feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for, while keeping owners updated with photos and communication for peace of mind.
About: I grew up around animals, and pets just make everything better. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and cats: walks, cuddles, playtime, all of it. I pay close attention to each pet's personality because every animal is different. I also follow routines, like, feeding times, walking routes, medication schedules if needed. Your fur baby will never sit alone wondering where everyone went. Senior pets and anxious dogs get extra gentleness from me -no rushing, no stress. I'll send you updates and photos because I know you'll miss them. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work regular weekday hours (9 to 5), but my husband works from home frequently, so pets are never left alone for long. I'm available for walks, drop-ins, and check-ins on weekdays (time tbd), and have a general flexible availability on weekends. I keep a consistent routine: same walk times, same feeding windows because pets thrive on predictability. Our home in Union City, NJ is calm, clean, and pet-friendly. No loud chaos, no other animals to stress yours out. I take leash safety seriously on every walk, no distractions. I'm comfortable with crates if that's what your pet is used to. I'll always follow your specific instructions because you know your pet best. Any concerns and I'll text you immediately.

“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!”
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.

“Susanna is an incredible sitter and was able to come in on time to check on our cat, Mila. She is very detailed with her visits and ensures Mila is a happy camper while we’re away. Thank you!!”
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”
“Klaudia is an amazing cat-sitter, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! Her exceptional care and attention to detail surpassed all my expectations, and my furry companions were in safe hands while I was away. She promptly responded to my inquiries and made sure to keep me updated throughout her visits. The most important thing is her genuine love for cats. My cat usually dislike strangers but she loves Klaudia! They built a genuine bond during their time together. Thank you for taking care of my cat and I will definitely be reaching out to you for future cat-sitting needs.”
“Lisa is the ultimate bestest of the best! She is a bonafide lover of dogs and take to her like a magnet. She is able to take on my crazy Great Dane in walks and has patience with my pitbull who decides to be a boat anchor on her walks. I trust Lisa with caring for our fur babies and home while out of town. she is ultra-responsible and communicative. Choose Lisa for you dog sitter/walker needs— you will be very glad you did.”
“I am very pleased with the care Christa gave my 2 little dogs while I was on a weekend vacation! She kept my mind at ease updating me with pictures and their "report card" while I was away.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Weehawken
Faith was absolutely amazing! We received 5 pictures per drop-in and also a message with details on top of the report card! This was my first time using Rover and Faith made me feel so comfortable while also making my pup happy and safe! 10/10 would recommend!
Emma was fantastic caring for Dante. We needed drop in help last minute and she was a lifesaver. She shared photos each time to assure us he was in her great care, and she played with him to keep him smiling and loved. Would love to work with her again. Thank you, Emma!
Jesse was GREAT with Moby. He is clearly a dog lover and Moby, an anxious dog, quickly took to him. Jesse was also very responsive and responsible - wanting to make sure he knew everything he needed to know about Moby. Can’t wait to have him care for Moby again!
Our 4 year old Samoyed took to Laura right away! She is very punctual, professional, and communicative. We had peace of mind knowing our pup was in her care and she was very attentive to our pup’s needs including her routine, keeping her cool and hydrated during a heat wave, and prioritizing her safety in the yard. We will definitely book Laura again!
Nicole was wonderful during her drop in with our 4 yr old Samoyed. Our pup instantly took to her and Nicole was so kind, patient with her barking, and very attentive to our routine. She is super communicative, punctual, and gave our pup all of her attention. We had peace of mind that our pup was safe and will definitely book Nicole again!
Hannah did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs! We have two senior dogs, so we’re pretty particular about their care, and Hannah was incredibly gentle, attentive, and thoughtful with them. She was always right on time, very responsive, and kept us well updated throughout her stay. It was clear that she genuinely cared about the dogs and took the time to make sure they were comfortable and well cared for. We felt at ease knowing they were with her and would absolutely recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and trustworthy sitter!

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.

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.

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.
