“Meghan is a wonderful pet sitter. So fortunate to have found her on Rover. She goes above and beyond in every way. A real pro and clearly an animal lover. Look forward to using her in the future.”

About: Hi! I'm Katie, a doggy daycare manager and dog lover! I’ve been walking/working with dogs for upwards of 10 years and I can’t get enough of it. Due to my 6 years of experience at a doggy daycare, I have had experience with many types of dogs- puppies, seniors, special needs, low confidence pups, and those with behavioral troubles. No matter what your dog needs, I can help! I can provide your pup with all the physical exercise they need, as I love to be active and outdoors. I have also trained my own dog and can help yours with basic obedience and leash skills. I can’t wait to meet your pup!! I have a varying schedule, but work 6.5 hour shifts, so I’m always free for at least half a day. I keep my availability up to date in order to best help you schedule with me. I have a friendly 3year old American Bully, Frank. If your pup stays at my home, they’ll have a furry friend and all the care they need!
“Great experience. Our dogs are not the easiest to handle and max did an amazing job. This was one of the longest trips we have been on away from our pups, and they were in great hands. Would book again!”
“Heather has been an occasional caregiver for our puppy, Jerry and our cat, Lola for the last 4 months. She was the first person to puppy sit for Jerry after we got him, and we are so glad that we found her through Rover! Heather assists with last minute dog walks, holiday pet sitting for the cat, as well as drop-ins. She is consistently reliable, and we've always felt 100% comfortable leaving her to care for the pets. We are so happy that she lives just down the road and will definitely be using her for future pet sitting!”
About: Hi there! I’m a veterinary technician at Sea Girt Animal Hospital, where I’ve been caring for pets for the past five years. Working with animals is truly my passion—I love getting to know each dog and cat’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies who love to play to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I’m also skilled in giving medications (oral, topical, or injectable if needed) and keeping up with any special routines your pet may have. At home, I’m a proud dog mom to one wonderful pups who keep me smiling every day. Whether it’s going for walks, snuggling, playing fetch, or just keeping your pet company, I treat every furry friend like part of my own family. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for—and I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages while you’re away! I am currently working at a veterinary hospital and attending school Monday-Thursday 4:30 to 9:30. I am free all day Wednesday until school and free all day Friday. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my priority is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—feeding times, walks, playtime, and any medications—so they feel right at home even when you’re away. As a veterinary technician with 5 years of experience at Sea Girt Animal Hospital, I’m trained to notice even small changes in a pet’s behavior or health. I’m comfortable administering medications, caring for puppies and senior dogs, and providing gentle, attentive care for pets with special needs. In your home, I always respect your space and your pet’s routine, keeping everything clean and consistent. In my home, pets have a calm, safe environment with plenty of attention, belly rubs, and love. I also make sure to send lots of photo and message updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for!

About: In all my 22 years of life, I have always had a dog and have assisted in feeding, bathing, and walking the dogs I’ve had. I’ve always been an animal person even considered becoming a vet at one point. Whenever I am at someone’s home, you can find me hanging out with their pet wether it’s a dog or cat or even a snake! In addition to walks on ROVER I make and sell custom stickers. Pet stickers are especially popular and my Etsy is ShopMomentsFromMichi I currently have a flexible schedule, please reach out to me a week in advance, so I can fit your pup into that schedule!!

Whenever I walk a dog I always bring myself and the dog water to keep us safe and hydrated.
About: Hi! I’m Sydney, and I’ve been dog and cat sitting for over 10 years for wonderful families in my community. I recently joined Rover to connect with more pet parents and expand my pet care services. I truly love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether it’s long walks, playing fetch, sticking to feeding routines, or simply keeping them company, I make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so if I board your pet, I’ll be home with them throughout the day, giving them plenty of attention, care, and companionship. I work from home so if I'm boarding your pet I will be with them all day giving them lots of walks and attention throughout the day. I care for pets as if they were my own, always prioritizing their safety, comfort, and routine. In my home, pets receive constant supervision, plenty of attention, and lots of exercise through walks and playtime. I work from home, so I’m able to be with them throughout the day, provide timely meals, potty breaks, and make sure they feel comfortable and settled.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and have done fostering of dogs since 2019. My friends, neighbours, and their friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and be with their dogs. I have stayed at dog owners place and sometimes dogs have even stayed at my place too. I’m currently working full-time in a software engineering industry but my work is fully remote and therefore the dog allows me to get up from my chair and help them have a walk while me also taking a walk break from screen and work. I’m a very clean person so you wouldn’t find things laying around in my place. I am very cautious while walking the dog and will follow the instructions that are provided.
“Olivia has been great with my goldendoodle. She helps my out a few times a week while I am at work. I don’t trust many people with my baby and I trust her! Not only am I happy with her but my girl LOVES her. It is a great feeling knowing that your dog is in good hands. It is such a relief to have found her to help me out.”
About: Hi! I’m Ashlee 🐾 I’m an ER nurse who loves animals and am looking to spend some of my days off caring for your furry family members! I have experience caring for senior and special-needs pets and understand that every animal has their own routines, quirks, and needs. I recently said goodbye to my 16-year-old Shih Tzu, who was a huge part of my life, so I know firsthand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I’m especially comfortable with older pets, medications, mobility issues, and pets who need a little extra patience and attention. As a nurse, I’m responsible, attentive, and comfortable staying calm when something unexpected happens. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. ❤️ I’d love the opportunity to get to know your pets and help give you peace of mind while you’re away! I am currently finishing up nursing school and only have to be at the hospital twice a week! That schedule varies but I have plenty of time the rest of the week to take care of your pups :) I have experience with dogs of all breeds and sizes. I don’t discriminate dogs and love a small cuddle pup or a big dog that needs lots of exercise and stimulation! My services do not include coming to my house since I don’t have a fenced in yard but I have been trusted to house sit and pet sit for many friends and extended family since I was in high school. Trust, respect & safety is my number one priority for your home and your pup! I also watch two dogs, a bunny and chickens with special needs regularly.
About: Over 10 years of experience caring for my own pets, fostering dogs for rescues and my local shelter, and pet sitting for friends and family. I’ve cared for dogs at every stage of life from bottle-feeding newborn puppies to meeting the special needs of senior dogs. I’m experienced with positive-reinforcement training, daily walks and exercise, specialized feeding routines, medications and individualized care needs. Most importantly, I understand that our four-legged companions aren’t “just pets” - they’re family. I provide every dog with the patience, love, attention, and personalized care I would want for my own. While I work full-time, my schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide reliable pet care during evenings, weekends, and holidays. I’m happy to work with your schedule and your pet’s routine, whether you need a weekend sitter, evening visits, or extra care while you’re away for a holiday. My goal is to make your time away worry-free, knowing your pets are receiving plenty of love, attention, and personalized care. I’m happy to care for your dogs in the comfort of their own home, following your instructions and maintaining their normal routines as closely as possible. I’ll tailor my care to your pet’s individual needs, whether that means feeding schedules, walks, playtime, training, medication, or simply providing companionship and attention.
“Karin did a wonderful job caring for our two pups while we were amour off state visiting family. She was professional, attentive, and kind at the meet and greet. My dogs took to her very well. She is definitely an animal lover!! And it shows. Karin asked all of the necessary questions and planned everything ahead of the visit from playtime to walks and food. We felt very secure and confident leaving our two pups with Karin. We knew they were in good hands. We received texts and pictures throughout the visit and could rest assured that our doggies had their walk, playtime, and were fed and safe.”
About: My name is Brooke, I am an 22 year old attending Monmouth University in the fall and I have experience with a variety of pets throughout the years. I currently have 2 dogs and a cat that I care for daily. I will treat your pets as my own and am comfortable with a variety of behaviors, species, and needs. I look forward to caring for your pet! I have plenty of time to care for your pet this summer as I have an open schedule before school starts in the fall. I am flexible with dates and times. I am comfortable dealing with a variety of environments and needs for your pet. Please let me know any requests or concerns you have for your pets behaviors or needs!
About: I have extensive hands-on experience working with dogs of all ages, personalities, and behavioral needs. I studied canine psychology and behavior under certified behaviorists and professional certified trainers in Portland, Maine, with a focus on understanding canine communication, behavior, enrichment, and positive-reinforcement training. I previously owned and operated a pet care business in Portland, Maine, specializing in canine enrichment, individualized socialization, and overnight pet sitting. Much of my work focused on dogs who were not a good fit for traditional boarding facilities or standard pet-sitting environments, including dogs with higher energy levels, behavioral challenges, or unique individual needs. My approach is centered on creating a safe, structured, and comfortable environment while taking the time to understand each dog's individual personality and needs. I believe dogs thrive when their physical, mental, and emotional needs are properly met. It is my full-time job, so my weekly schedule revolves around pet care! I greatly look forward to adding your pet into my regular routine! I care for each pet based on their individual personality, routine, and needs. I take time to understand their normal habits, energy level, comfort level, and any behavioral or medical considerations so they can feel safe and comfortable in my care. I follow the owner's instructions closely and keep their normal routines as consistent as possible. I also prioritize clear communication with owners providing updates so they know how their pet is doing.

Jessica is so amazing with our kitties!! She really goes the extra mile to make sure our cats are well taken care of while we are away — from chatting with our more shy girl cat to playing with our energetic orange boy, Jessica takes such good care of our babies.
Katie came over and fed our kitties breakfast everyday for 10 days while we were away on our honeymoon! She went above and beyond and played with them as well, sent us so many pictures, and answered all of our questions to make us feel as comfortable as possible while we were away!
I just used Meghan for a 10 day trip out of town. She made it here in bad weather, when it wasn’t always convenient for her. She always goes above and beyond and loves my puppy and he loves her.! She’s a real animal lover and a total pro in every respect. Don’t hesitate to employ her. You will not regret it. I’m so very thankful that I found her . Thank you, Meghan !
Regina was wonderful while we were away! She was so kind, communicative and patient with our cats, especially when one of them was hiding and the other was having some stomach issues. She kept us updated throughout the whole weekend and was so sweet and understanding about everything. She even called right away when she noticed a leak in our ceiling which we were incredibly grateful for. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was looking out for our cats but our home as well. We’re so appreciative of her and would absolutely recommend her ♥️
Keith is an angel who helped us during an emergency when our dog had separation anxiety on vacation. He went above and beyond. He is respectful, trustworthy, great with communication, and my dog absolutely loved him! An amazing person with a huge heart. Keith is the greatest of all time.
Absolutely amazing, super knowledgeable, immensely loving, sweet, and patient with our fur-babies!!! We have yet to have ever, even once, found such a kind, responsible, communicative and absolutely unparalleled person - let alone such a dynamic duo - as these two!!! My partner and I can both tell for 100% sure, from all of the gorgeous, super adorable, photos that Kathy and John take on each of their drop-ins and long walks with our two doggos, that they cannot wait for the next time that Kathy and John come to care for them 🥰😍🤩. Each and every visit, they go for long walks, smell all the sniffs in our neighborhood, play games inside and outside, and get all the food, water, love and attention that they need!! They are simply the best!!
This is my second time booking with Anahi, and it’s been another great experience. She is highly communicative, very loving and attentive to my cat, and from the pics I get, he is clearly in love with her. I had concerns about being away during the winter storm, and both Anahi’s and Purr’s safety with roads iced over. We worked it out, and all was well. Thank you so much, Anahi! We appreciate you!
This was my first time using Marley to care for my kitties. From the meet and greet to the drop in visits she was really great! My kitties are my babies and I felt 100% comfortable knowing she was going to take great care of them for me. I will definitely use her again and would recommend her to anyone who wants top notch care for their fur babies!!
Erin took care of our two dogs with almost no notice. She responded right away to our booking request and continued to respond promptly and professionally; I had full confidence that the pups would be in good hands. Her check-ins were informative and on schedule. She included pictures each time as well. Thank you Erin! We’ll definitely be in touch next time.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Allenhurst
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 21,599 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Allenhurst. 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.

- 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
