“I am so happy we found Candiance to check in on our doggy. She is so patient and understanding to our dog’s needs. She has great communication and it was easy for me to trust her to care for our dog.”
About: Experience walking and caring for dogs and cats. I have fostered several animals throughout college and have trained dogs of all ages. My own pet is AKC Caine Good Citizen Certified and I have a research background in dog Vet Care and can make adjustments to care based on breed and any current health issues. I make time to take my own pet out on adventures and I'd love to be able to take yours out for some fun as well! I'm vigilant of potential dangers with care for a pet outside of their home. I take notice of areas/ other pets to avoid and will physically step in to protect your pets boundaries.
About: I love spending time with both dogs and cats and making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and cared for. I especially enjoy taking dogs on walks, giving them plenty of exercise, and taking them to the park when appropriate. I also offer drop-in visits for feeding, playtime, potty breaks, companionship, and lots of attention. I’m a cat lover too and enjoy caring for cats while keeping their routines as normal and comfortable as possible. If your pet is farther from my home or needs more company, I’m also available for house sitting and can stay in your home with them. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs, and I always keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can have peace of mind while they’re away. 🐾 Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I make sure each pet receives plenty of attention and care. I’m available for drop-in visits and other pet care services during the week and on weekends. I’m flexible and happy to work with each owner’s schedule and their pet’s normal routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I carefully follow all feeding, litter box, medication, and care instructions provided by the owner. I respect each cat’s personality and boundaries, keep their environment clean and secure, and provide regular photo and message updates so you can feel comfortable while you’re away.
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!
“Katherine accepted a very last-minute New Year’s booking to take care of my cat, and she was fantastic. She was communicative from the very start and sent great updates and pictures of my cat every day. I will absolutely book her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”
“Angela is amazing - super nice and easy to work with! She took the time to understand my cat’s needs, handled everything nicely, and sent me lots of photos of my cat.”
“Leila was amazing while dropping in on our two cats. She was prompt, responsible, and super communicative. We would hire her again and would definitely recommend her!”
“Daisy was absolutely phenomenal! She took such great care of my cat. She always kept me up to date when coming, took loads of photos, left everything so tidy, and gave my cat lots of love. My cat is quite old and needs meds, she did a great job with that too!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. Since I was a baby, dogs have always been part of my world. I started working with dogs at 15, and I’ve taken care of puppies, adult dogs, and seniors with patience and love. I’m gentle, responsible, and always pay attention to what each pup needs. My goal is to make every pup feel safe, calm, and comfortable in their own space.🤍🐾 I’m a caring and responsible pet sitter who always puts your baby’s happiness first. I love giving gentle walks during the day, so they can enjoy fresh air, explore, and feel relaxed during the day. I also offer in home pet sitting, making sure your little one stays safe, comfortable, and calm while you’re away. I treat every pet with love, patience, and soft attention, always making them feel cared for and truly at home.🐾🤍 I provide loving, attentive care for pets—following their routines, giving playtime, walks, cuddles, and attention, keeping their space clean, and following all instructions to keep them happy and safe.
“Both of my pets cat and the hamster look great upon our return home (8 days away). Mari took great care of them, plus was able to make friends with extremely shy cat.. usually he won’t eat when we were away. This time seems that he gained weight and his coat is shiny . Two times per day I had detailed updates about how my pets are doing.”
“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!!”
“Jade & Scotty have been so wonderful. I was so nervous going online and finding someone but knew I had to with my busy schedule. Jade & Scotty made time to come meet Us prior to us booking our first visit. I knew that day this was going to be a great fit. We have had several visits, my dogs love them and they are always sure to give me updates and pictures! When I get home my dogs are calm and happy after their visit and I feel good knowing they are not alone all day!”
“Aniko provided exceptional care to my cats. She listened and took notes during the meet and greet. She takes her time and positively interacts with our cats during each visit.”
“Murray was an excellent cat sitter. He fed and played with my cats every day and even got my most timid cat to come out of hiding. He also took care of some minor things when I asked him like a camera the cats knocked over. I am really glad I hired Murray and Ana to take care of my cats while I was gone - and my cats were glad as well.”
“She is absolutely the best! She was supposed to drop in for 30 minutes, but she spent several hours and even took my dog to the dog park because she knew I’m overwhelmed with the bar exam and moving🥹🥹🥹 I can’t thank her enough and highly recommend her.”
“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.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Weehawken
Yisha is a true professional who genuinely loves animals and is so kind and caring for our cats! we are so fortunate to have met her. Our cats never go up to strangers at first even in our own home but during the meet and greet our kitties went straight to her and that’s when we knew Yisha was the one! We will continue trusting her home and kitties
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!
Carly took excellent care of Toastie, and Toastie loved the meet-and-greet and drop-in visits. Carly is responsible and attentive. Finding someone you trust to come into your home to care for your pet is invaluable. We absolutely will book Carly again when we need Toastie care in NYC.
Monica did a great job taking care of our cats! She took care to follow all our instructions and give all our cats plenty of love, attention, and play time. She was timely and sent good follow up notes every time. Even our crankiest cat warmed up to her by the end. And we came back to a clean house at the end of our travels, which was much appreciated. We’d definitely book with Monica 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!
Leila has cared for our cats multiple times now and she always goes above and beyond. She is reliable and communicative which makes all the difference for me. This trip I messaged her late about a food level notification and she was there bright and early to refill and feed them. I appreciate her commitment. Thanks Leila!
Micaela took amazing care of our cat, Snips! We booked 5 daily visits to help keep our cat on a normal routine and Micaela went above and beyond with her level of care while in our home. She spent lots of time playing with Snips, scooped her litter, checked the food bowls, and even checked areas of concern we mentioned. I highly recommend Micaela for you cat sitting needs; we will be booking repeatedly with her!
We decided to book Lucy when we had to leave town suddenly before we were able to meet or introduce her to our kitty. She did such an amazing job at making us feel comfortable as well as our kitty while we were away. We could not recommend her enough and would absolutely rebook her!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
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. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.

- 96% can help with daily exercise

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
