“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.”
“Anne has watch over my puppy several times a week for the last 8 months or so, she’s taken such good care of him during that time. I received plenty of pics of them having fun and very detailed descriptions of everything that happened during his stay with her. When ever I had a last minute emergency or got held at work late she was extremely accommodating and went above and beyond to help. I really can’t say enough good things about Anne!”
“Chi is truly a lifesaver! He did an amazing job caring for my fur baby during a day visit on short notice. He sent lots of pictures and updates which put my mind at ease. I highly recommend Chi! Will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
About: I don’t just watch pets but I truly bond with them! I’ve had my own cats for years and have been the trusted dog sitter for my family and friends since college, so I’ve seen it all and loved every minute of it. I’ll make sure to send you plenty of photos so you can see exactly how much fun they're having. My goal is to make sure your furry babies feel safe, happy, and totally spoiled while you’re away! I have flexible in office days. Most of weeks, I go in Tuesday through Thursday and my husband go in Monday through Wednesday. I don’t make plans during the week so will be home all day and flexible on the weekends. I make sure to regularly update my availability to reflect my exact schedule, so you can always count on me being there when I say I will. My husband is also around most of times! Whether it’s a workday or the weekend, your pet will have constant companionship and a steady routine. My priority is keeping your pet’s routine as normal as possible to keep them happy and stress free. In my home, your pet becomes part of the family, with plenty of cozy spots for naps, dedicated playtime, and a safe, supervised environment where they can feel right at home. Regardless of the setting, I make sure they get all the exercise, cuddles, and mental stimulation they need, topped off with daily updates to let you know how they’re doing. I live in a spacious 2 bedroom so your pet will have plenty of space to roam around as well. I would love to have a details and instructions as I know every pet is different and I’m very good at following the instructions!
About: Hello! Im Paola, growing up surrounded by furry friends. I'm a caring and responsible pet enthusiast dedicated to ensuring they enjoy the best life possible. As someone currently not working, pet care naturally fits into my daily and weekly routine. I share my days with my sweet -2 years old- baby girl, who absolutely loves being outside and gets so excited whenever she sees a dog. Because of this, I kindly ask that any pups I care for are baby-friendly and comfortable walking calmly on a leash. 🐶💛 We are very close to Lincoln Harbor Park!! It's the perfect spot for our walks. Inside our house your dog will be completely comfortable :)
“Jackson is the happiest he’s been, when he gets to the block he’s pulling and knows exactly which door to turn into! Ivette and Gonzalo are heaven sent! I know he’s looking forward to seeing Blast 3 days a week!”
“Leslie is a great sitter and plays with our dog so that he is nice and relaxed when we see him again at night. I'm glad that our dog is getting such nice quality time and attention with Leslie!!”
“Stefan and Luiza and their family is so loving, kind and attentive. They were kind enough to spend a few minutes on a meet and greet and made our puppy feel welcome. So easy to communicate with, so prompt and responsive and clearly love dogs. Cannot recommend them highly enough!”
“Steven was excellent caretaker for my baby girl, Bella. Super attentive, responsive, and attentive to her everyday needs. Got through the day knowing my baby was well taken care of! Especially since she was having some tummy issues, Steven kept me aware and informed throughout the process. He was cool, calm, and collected and reassured me throughout the day! Will definitely be booking with him again!”

We adapt our care to each dog’s personality, ensuring they get the right balance of mental stimulation and relaxation. Whether it’s playtime, puzzle games, or cuddles, your dog will feel right at home! We also provide dedicated daily walking services, giving your pup structured exercise, fresh air, and gentle leash guidance tailored to their specific energy level and pace!

We walk Chance in the morning and evening for 30 minutes. The afternoon walks are 30–90 minutes along the water on the West Side Highway. We can adjust the walk length based on your dog’s needs, whether it's a quick stroll or a longer adventure! We live in a 600 square foot 1-bedroom apartment where your dog will feel right at home. Your pup can sleep with us in the same room or right outside, depending on the pup's preference. We can also set up a pee station if needed, though you’d just need to bring it as Chance is fully potty trained to go outside.

We hired Crystal last minute she was a life saver! Maya immediately loved her I opened the door and she jumped into her arms!! I was shocked !! Crystal was nice sweet and kept us updated all day! She sent pictures and followed mayas schedule. She communicated and gave me updated all day. I would definitely have her watch maya again! Punctual, caring and nice ! Thank you Crystal !!!
Lisa was wonderful! It was last minute, and she was incredibly accommodating and flexible. She made the whole process easy and gave me peace of mind knowing my pup was in good hands. I really appreciate her kindness and willingness to help on such short notice. Would definitely book with Lisa again! Love all the photos Lisa sends!
Excellent service! I traveled to New York for the weekend with my dog, Milo. Although the plan was for him to stay with me, it started raining heavily, and I didn't want to risk him getting soaked outside, so I looked for last-minute pet care options. She replied super quickly, accepted the request even faster, and was incredibly flexible with my schedule. Milo had an amazing time, which I could easily tell from all the photos she sent throughout his stay. If you live in NYC or are visiting and need someone reliable to take care of your dog, she is definitely the right person. Next time I'm in New York and need dog care, she will without a doubt be my first choice! ☺️💕
It was my first time booking with Gigi to care for my dog Andy. Gigi was pleasant to work with, and very communicative. She sent lots of photos during his stay today. Andy was calm and happy when I picked him up, a good sign for a nervous dog given it was his first time there. We will be booking with Gigi again in the future. Thank you!
Mandy was wonderful! I had to find a new sitter last minute for my pup for a few hours after work on a week night and Mandy was available. She was super kind and responsive. My dog immediately felt comfortable around her and she sent me updates throughout the evening which put me at ease. I would totally recommend and rebook her again!
Finley was great with Gigi, booked quickly when I was on a time crunch for work. Sent updates and you can tell really enjoys taking care of them. Gigi seemed to enjoy his hang, sometimes he can get a bit overstimulated around new people but she did great handling and could tell he was at ease when I picked him up, definitely would use again!
I had last-minute birthday dinner plans and was so happy to connect with Sharmistha! She was conveniently close by and incredibly accommodating. I heard Luna got plenty of her favorite belly rubs, which was such a sweet surprise! Thank you so much for taking such good care of my little one and making the evening so easy. Highly recommend!

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 Weehawken 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
