About: With a full year of Rover experience and a strong base of repeat clients, I bring reliability, consistency, and genuine care to every booking. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes, including my own 80‑lb senior lab, and I understand how important it is to maintain routines, provide calm structure, and keep pets comfortable. Whether your pet needs playtime, quiet companionship, or extra patience, I’m committed to giving them attentive, high‑quality care. A meet & greet is required for all first time clients. I want to make sure this is a good fit for everyone! Pet care is a core part of my everyday life because pet‑sitting is my full‑time job. My days revolve around maintaining consistent routines, giving each pet plenty of attention, and making sure everyone feels comfortable and cared for. I’m home throughout the day, which means I can provide regular walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and companionship without rushing or squeezing things in. With my own 8‑year‑old, 80‑lb lab by my side, caring for dogs is simply part of the rhythm of my home and my week. Pets staying with me get reliable structure, lots of interaction, and a calm environment where they can settle in and feel at ease. I offer both in‑home boarding and in‑home sitting, and I tailor my care to whatever helps pets feel the most comfortable. When pets stay with me, they have full access to my fenced‑in backyard for safe outdoor time, plus daily walks either through downtown Lambertville or along the quieter D&R towpath depending on their energy level and personality. My home is set up for dogs to relax, follow familiar routines, and enjoy plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m also happy to stay in a client’s home when that’s the best fit. In those cases, I adapt completely to the pet’s existing schedule, environment, and household routines—whether that means sticking to specific feeding times, maintaining training habits, or keeping their usual walking routes. My goal is always to make pets feel secure, understood, and cared for, no matter which service their family chooses.

“Kat is absolutely wonderful with our dog Maggie. She is reliable, communicative and clearly cares about Maggie’s well-being. It gives me great peace of mind knowing Maggie is in such good hands while I am away!”
“First time using Rover. Any reservations I had going into this were quickly dissolved by Justine’s friendly and prompt responses. I appreciate the communications prior to the visit and also the updates during and afterwards. I would absolutely request her again in the future.”

“Zee was amazing! Our cat gets really bad separation anxiety and Zee always went above and beyond. If you get nervous about leaving your pets, Zee is the sitter for you! She left us detailed messages with pictures and videos each visit. We will definitely be reaching out to Zee next time we have to leave our cat.”
“We feel so fortunate that Bethany cared for our cat and our plants! She immediately earned our trust and kept in touch with just the right amount of communication, making us feel reassured and connected while we were away. We came home to a happy cat and plants that looked even better than when we left. We hope to have Bethany visit again in the future!”
“Jahari helped us out last minute when we needed someone with an extra skillset to check in on our girl. We highly recommend him to anyone needing a pet sitter and in particular anyone needing the extra layer of assurance a vet tech can provide. He is super kind and accommodating and we are glad to have found him!”
“Lauren did an exceptional job walking my dog Ollie while I was traveling. It was his first time with Lauren and immediately decided she was his bestie for the week. Her reports were thoroughly positive and detailed. Lauren will definitely be our first choice for future Josh sits!”
About: We are a young couple with a lot of love for furry friends of all kinds! I have grown up with cats my whole life, and Raul has grown up with dogs his whole life. Together, we have fostered several rabbits in our home and successfully found them their furrever homes. We both have studied animal behavior in graduate school and have experience working with many different kinds of animals. I am a PhD student at Princeton University, so I have a very flexible schedule during the week. Raul is a middle school teacher, so his work days typically end early. We both are typically very free on the weekends and would love to have a pet to take care of and entertain! We can likely accommodate small pets in our home, as we have done for previous foster rabbits. For pets we take care of in a client's home, we are happy to respect your guidelines and preferences! We are always happy to send pictures and updates to give you the peace of mind that your pet is happy and healthy.
“Heidi took such great care of our two Maine Coons, and they took to her immediately. We appreciated Heidi’s clear communication and the update videos and photos she shared while we were away. Will definitely be booking Heidi for our boys again!”
“Bhali was so helpful and caring with our two dogs. They were well taken care of and very happy to go on walks with her. She catered to their needs and we appreciated the punctual check-ins with detailed updates and photos. Thank you so much Bhali!”
“Makula is wonderful for everything she did for our two babies. They were very happy and had a good time playing with her. Our little girl Goose is typically a little more skittish and she warmed up really fast to Makula! Thank you so much for everything!”
“Responsible and very responsive sitter! I appreciate Hannah's attention to detail. She was available for a last minute request with this booking and was also able to come for an additional visit so I could extend my vacation. Thank you!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Alexauken is $30 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $24 and $35 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 7,255 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Alexauken. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Alexauken. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
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.
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 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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
