About: I’m on Rover to help you out with any / all your pets needs while you’re away! I work full time as a student analyst in a public school. I don’t dog train, but I am familiar with any techniques that you may need for your pup! I have 3 dogs and 3 cats of my own. I have experience with all breeds! All mutts and senior pups are welcome. I also have experience administering medication to dogs. All dogs of breeds and age deserve attention and love. I’d love it if you let me love your pets as if they are my own too! Thank you for reading this. I am able to work with the families in terms of what they need. My calendar may not always reflect accurately as my times with my full-time job (human) clients do fluctuate. If it is blocked off it means I am 100% unavailable. I don’t recommend myself in terms of full-on puppy training and 24/7 puppy care due to my schedule but I am versed in the training techniques due to my career. I am available weekends for extra care and staying in your home full time. My pets are well loved and taken care of while I care for others. I will never be able to host in my home, so please consider this! I offer in home care, overnight, daily walks, and check ins. Animals will not be hosted in my home due to a senior dog I have who is on medication. For those reasons, home sitting is only available in terms of long care. I have done walks, trips to stores, parks, yard play, and car trips with fur babies for daily drop ins, walks, or overnight stays!

About: Multiple years of pet care experience. Specializing with patience in nervous/ anxious dogs but I care for all! I am a loving dog mom that obsessed with my fur baby & will treat yours as my own! I currently work a full time job but I work from home two days a week which gives me more time to watch your pet! I am available weekends & during the week can do early morning, evening, & night time drop ins/ walks. **Please be advised that I work a full time job & am in office 2.5 days a week, this can mean that some days I will not be able to spend the entire day with your pup, please message me with any questions so that we can work something out** I care for your pet in your house as you would! If you'd like, I'll crate your pet upon departure or make sure they are comfortable roaming while you are gone. I provide care in your home so that your pet is comfortable while you’re away. When walking dogs I will make sure all of the accessories you use are used, as well as any other safety precautions I think may be necessary so your fur baby stays close to me & makes it home safely (collar, leash, harness, treats, etc). I promise to make sure to give them a lot of belly rubs, play with them, & let them drool all over me! As a mom of a rescue dog, I understand the patience and gentleness certain dogs need when anxious, stressed, or overwhelmed. If your dog falls under this category and has any special needs to be comfortable please let me know ahead of time.

About: Passionate about caring for our fuzzy friends! I have a dog and two cats of my own and I prioritize play time, regular walks and on-time feedings, and litter box changes everyday. I’m currently working part time. I’m available for day care and check-ins every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday as well as after work (1 pm) on Wednesdays and weekends. For overnight care, I’m available on Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday nights. I’m very cautious when walking dogs or entering/exiting homes to ensure no pet gets loose. Being the calm person that I am, it’s easy for me to gain the trust of and build relationships with even the shyest of pets.

About: I grew up caring for cats and dogs and have always had a genuine love for animals. I have the most experience caring for medium-sized dogs, including helping care for Labs, Golden Retrievers, Pit Bulls, and Blue Heelers. I also have extensive experience caring for cats. I have cared for a variety of cats over the years, including staying overnight to provide care, administering medication, and following special dietary needs. I have personally cared for three cats over the past 10 years, giving me years of experience understanding their individual personalities, routines, and needs. I am comfortable providing attentive, loving care and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Most of my experience is with family and friend's animals but since having a baby I am looking to fill my day with caring for other's animals even walking dogs during the day. I am currently a stay-at-home mom, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be available for pet care throughout the day. I am especially flexible for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, and providing companionship. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I am happy to work with your schedule and their individual routine. I am comfortable providing attentive, reliable care for pets with a variety of needs and personalities. I can administer medications, take dogs for walks, follow specific feeding schedules and dietary instructions, and carefully follow any routines or instructions provided by pet parents. I understand that every pet is different, and I make it a priority to respect their individual personalities, boundaries, and comfort levels. Whether a pet is energetic and playful, shy and cautious, or simply enjoys their own space, I provide patient, loving care while making sure they feel safe and comfortable.

About: As a lifelong animal lover, dog mom to my energetic 2-year-old Golden Retriever, Boomer, and mom of three active kids, caring for others comes naturally to me. Our home and lifestyle are very active, so I’m comfortable handling dogs with lots of energy, big personalities, and different needs. I have experience with pets both big and small and understand how important it is to keep them safe, exercised, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, cuddles, check-ins, or dependable in-home care, I treat every animal like part of the family and care for them with patience, attention, and genuine love. My schedule is very flexible thanks to my career in real estate, which allows me to adjust my day around client and pet care needs. I’m available for morning, midday, evening, and weekend walks or drop-ins, and I can often accommodate last-minute requests. Because I create my own schedule, I’m able to provide reliable, attentive care and plenty of time and attention for your pets. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. As both a dog owner and mom, I understand how important trust and communication are when someone is caring for a member of your family. I’m attentive, dependable, and respectful of both your home and your pet’s individual needs. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels and always focus on creating a calm, positive environment where pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, walking routines, crate training preferences, and any special care requests to help keep your pet comfortable and stress-free.

You can tell she loves and truly cares about animals from her interaction with them. My pups can't wait until they get to spend 5 days with her when we go on vacation! Thank you again Kayla !”

About: I have had numerous pets over the years that include dogs of many sizes and breeds. I have raised puppies and seen my share of canine companions through to the Rainbow Bridge. I have experience with numerous medical issues and giving medications. To be clear, I do not have any professional Veterinary experience from a providers perspective, but am able to provide basic medication dispensing with your instructions. I love to go for long walks and experience the joy that our furry friends get with lots of sniffs along the way. My husband is also available daily to help with care if for any reason I need to run out for an errand. My husband is also a caregiver on Rover if you would like to check out his page. His name is James Blankenhorn. I am a former Dental Hygienist that has been retired for just under 1 year. We lost our precious Malti Poo 2 years ago and I miss having a dog to care for. My husband is also retired, so we are both at home most days. My husband is also a Rover member that can help care for your dog when needed if I am unavailable, If you would like to check out his profile on Rover, his name is James Blankenhorn. We have had numerous dogs over the years that range from small to large. Our home is in a gated development and none of the yards are fenced in, so walks on a leash would be required. Each of us are also available to walk your canine companion in their own neighborhood if preferred. As noted above, I do not have a fenced in yard, but I am happy to walk your canine companion in my neighborhood or yours. I am happy to dispense medications if needed and happy to take your special pet to a Vet appointment if needed.

Matt was an excellent dog walker. I received pictures from his walk and my dog sat at the door waiting for him. When Matt got here the dog wiggled all over so excited to see him. I would highly recommend him, very personable, very professional and very kind to my dog.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Bayville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Bayville is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $32 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 1,735 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Bayville. 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 .

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 , 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 Bayville. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
