“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.”
“Anahi is a wonderful person and sitter! She is friendly, kind, and a great communicator. I was very nervous as it was my first time using the site to find a sitter, but I made the right choice booking Anahi. I was not expecting my shy cat to interact with her right away, but from the first visit, she was sharing pictures of them playing together, and him seeking her out for affection as she walked in on the second visit. I do believe animals are a great judge of character and I will be booking her for my next trip. Highly recommend.”
“Excellent care for our fur babies while we vacationed. Erin is very Reliable giving us peace of mind while we were away from home. Thank you Erin love the daily pictures.”
“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!”
“Carly was a blessing to have while we were away. We have two senior kitties who both require medication and she was able to administer it all. Super communicative and personable. Highly recommend and will use again.”
About: Hello! Thank you for checking out my profile! Since I was a child, I’ve taken care of dogs of every kinds, cats, turtles, fish, rabbits, hamsters, and chickens. I’m open to taking care of a snake but I might need a minute to get comfortable! I grew up with a sweet, special needs bichon frise and cocker spaniel. In 2016, I started house sitting and walking dogs for clients, neighbors, friends, and family. I have experience with all dogs- young, old, and special needs. I have given medication to cats and dogs for medical conditions and separation anxiety, in addition to providing extra love and care. I love animals and would be glad to help you have a wonderful vacation knowing your pets are well cared for! If you have any questions, feel free to be in touch. I’m available for dog walks, pet drop-ins, and housesitting in the pet parent’s home on weekdays and weekends. I taught special education for the last ten years but will not be returning this year, so my availability has opened up. A little more about my background: I earned a Bachelor of Science in Community Health Education with a concentration in Health Promotion and Culture and a Master of Education in Special Education. Before changing careers to teaching, I worked with veterans and at a free health clinic as the Community Health Education Coordinator. I can provide house sitting in your home and take care of your pet’s individual needs. At this time, I cannot board pets in mine. Unfortunately, my landlord won’t allow pets.
“Micaela was FANTASTIC!! Not only did she always reply quickly, she was very accommodating. She sent us multiple photos everyday and made a great connection with our cat. Would recommend her to anyone!”
About: Hi, I'm Robin. I currently work as a nurse but have 10 years of experience as a veterinary technician at various animal hospitals.I was Fear Free certified at the last animal hospital I worked at and have experience with dogs, cats, and rabbits. I grew up owning dogs and cats all of my life and I have been a volunteer dog walker at an animal shelter since I was 16 years old. I currently share my home with my rescue dog, Riley and three cats, Willow, Julius, and Chase. I have off from work on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays so I am available anytime but also willing to do the occasional walk/drop in on evenings after work. I have a lot of experience walking my dog as I am in an apartment so I walk her frequently and a lot of experience walking other dogs in all kinds of settings.
“Super appreciate Regina dropping in to take care of our dog Mouse. She was great at communication, happily set up a meeting ahead of the visit and was prompt and attentive to everything during the drop in. Would book again!”
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.
“So amazing! Very accommodating and attentive and willing to keep in touch with you. I felt very comfortable leaving my dogs, knowing they would be well taken care of.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds for 20+ years. I am trustworthy, caring, compassionate and have a huge love for animals of all kinds! I am currently working full time, so my availability for dog walking includes evening walks Mondays-Fridays (5:30pm-onward), and weekend walks as available: mornings, afternoons, and evenings I am available to come to your home to take your dog for a walk, and/or to stop by for feedings and some extra love and attention. Whether you have a fenced in yard or your dog requires leashed walks, I will adapt to whatever your fur baby’s preference are!
About: I have cared for puppies, dogs, kittens, and cats in my time fostering for animal rescue. I can administer pills or eye drops. I also have experience training puppies. I work from home permanently, so your pup would be supervised during the workday. On the weekends I love adventuring around the city! Your pup would go to farmer's markets and local parks. I would love your dog as if they were my own. They would get exciting walks and meet new friends! I WFH so your pets would have attention and cuddles throughout the day. For everyone's safety, your pup would never be off leash in public and if they are crate trained I would crate them if I needed to leave them home and/or while we are sleeping.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life, as I grew up with 2 dogs. I have 5+ years of experience in housesitting, walks and playdates. I also have experience with reactive dogs, where I can keep them safe during walks with patience. I currently work in a mostly freelance and remote environment. I am flexible and I communicate well about my schedule for accommodating your fur friends. I treat every pet at home as if it were my own. I make sure to follow instructions precisely and with care. I make sure to double check that fences are closed and doors are locked. Pet safety is a top priority. I have a lot of love for what I do and that shows in my work.
“Jessica took excellent care of our cats! She was very thorough and responsive. Everything was done according to the cats schedules and preferences. Jessica provided timely updates and photos. We highly recommend her services!”
“Kelsey was amazing with our 3 pups while we were away for a few days! We opted for 2-3 daily check in visits which worked great for our dogs. Our three dogs are different ages and have slightly different care needs. Kelsey was able to accommodate them all and our dogs seemed happy and calm while we were away.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. I grew up on a farm. I know animals need excerise everyday as well as love and attention. If your life right now is a little busy and need someone to help out with your animals routine Ill be more than happy to take the job. Right now I’m not working, I have plenty of time to help out with your pets routine. I’m available 7 days a week, if that changes I will make note of it on this profile. I can do house trips to take your dog for a walk and give some attention. I can stop in few times a day/night if your traveling for work or just vacation. Also if you would like I also go to parks and dog parks if your dog likes to socialize. I have a female beagle mix named Khloe that I adopted 3 years ago. Khloe is very good with dogs and cats, loves to play. I have a 3 year old beagle mix named Khloe. She loves to play with other dogs big or small. If your pet needs to be separated from other dogs incase of surgery’s or they don’t get along well with others I can also do that! I walk my Khloe 3x a day at least 2x a day a half to hour walk each time around my neighborhood. I also go to dog parks and parks to walk!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Asbury Park
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!
Our dogs absolutely loved her! We have an anxious, highly reactive dog, but during her time with them, she was incredible. She even worked with him on positive reinforcement, teaching him that staying calm around his triggers leads to rewards. She sent us tons of photos and videos of their walks together, which gave us total peace of mind. This was the first time we’ve ever experienced zero stress leaving our dogs with a sitter. We couldn't be more grateful and highly recommend her!
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!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Asbury Park is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $33 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 October 2026, there are 19,623 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Asbury Park. 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 Asbury Park. On Rover:
- 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 88% 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.
