About: I’ve always gown up with dogs and I have plenty of experience. I’m always happy to help when needed. I can also provided boarding as needed. I’m currently working full time but I can return home during the day for works and I am free all weekends. Scheduling may vary as needed. I can follow set schedules and ask questions when needed. I do prefer for houses to have cameras so all parties involved are aware of all activity that goes on in the home.
“Luqing was absolutely amazing. Professional, conscientious, attentive, loving and playful with our cats. What more can one ask for? Highly recommend amd I don’t do that lightly.”
“Nikki dropped in to check on our cats during the long Fourth of July weekend! Everything went so well and she gave one of our cats his meds every evening. She was timely and professional and very knowledgeable!”
About: Like any sitter on Rover, I have a deep love for animals, but what sets me apart is my experience caring for and advocating for pets who may be nervous, fearful, or reactive. I’ve been a proud owner of Maple for the past 8 years. She is a very nervous and fear-reactive Australian Cattle Dog/Jack Russell rescue, and over the years I’ve worked closely with her to help her feel more comfortable and confident. That has included training, medication, patience, and plenty of high-value treats! Living with Maple has taught me how important it is to understand a pet’s individual needs, recognize their body language and comfort levels, and never rush them into situations they aren’t ready for. I’m comfortable giving pets the time, space, and reassurance they need to feel safe and cared for. Whether your pet is outgoing and playful or needs a little extra patience and understanding, I’m committed to meeting them where they are and giving them the care they deserve. If your pet has a hard time on walks, I am perfectly comfortable handling these types of situations to ensure they get their walks stress free. Otherwise, all the more excited to work with you and your pets' needs. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of one-on-one attention. I’m generally available for visits between 6–11 AM on weekdays, as well as most hours on weekends. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and can accommodate regular visits or occasional drop-ins. I’m also comfortable administering medications when needed, whether that means a pill hidden in a high-value treat or following specific instructions from you. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine as consistent and stress-free as possible while you’re away. When caring for a pet in their home, my first priority is making sure they feel safe and comfortable in their own space. I follow your instructions closely and do my best to keep their normal routine consistent—from feeding and walks to medications, playtime, and quiet time. I’m especially mindful of doors, gates, leashes, and other potential escape routes, and I never assume a pet is comfortable with something just because another pet might be. I pay attention to body language and let pets set the pace, especially when they’re shy, nervous, or reactive. My experience with Maple, my nervous and fear-reactive rescue, has taught me to be patient, observant, and proactive. I understand that building trust can take time, and I would much rather give a pet the space they need than push them beyond their comfort zone. I also know how important it is for owners to feel comfortable trusting someone in their home. I’ll treat your space with the same care and respect I give your pets, and I’ll keep you updated during visits so you know how your pet is doing.
“Again, Heidi helped us to take great care of our cat. Our cat loves her and really enjoyed her care and loves playing and cuddling with her. In particular, we also enjoyed to get Heidi’s daily video updates of our cat. Thanks!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and I honestly can’t imagine it any other way! I’ve grown up with dogs and cats and have had my own horse since I was 12. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and over the years, I’ve learned a lot about their care, health, and individual needs through caring for my own horse and pets. I truly love spending time with animals and getting to know their different personalities. Whether your pet wants to play, go for a walk, get some extra cuddles, or just have someone around while you’re away, I’d love to be that person for them! I’m also a Registered Nurse at RWJBarnabas, so I’m responsible, attentive, and comfortable handling situations that require a little extra care. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I work M-F 7:30AM-4PM. Weekends are free, however, during the week if your pet needs to be let out during the day I will not be available unless it is before/after work. I offer walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and pet sitting tailored to your pet’s needs. I’m flexible and happy to work with their routine and personalities!
“Another great experience with Jake. Cats were in great shape, and he even cleaned up the floor and brought my packages inside without being asked. Will absolutely continue booking him.”
“I had such a wonderful experience with Hiral while I was on vacation in Puerto Rico! She took amazing care of my dog and truly went above and beyond. I felt so comfortable and happy knowing my fur baby was in such good hands. I highly recommend her! 🐾❤️ will definitely be working with her in the future”
“Laura was pleasant ,considerate, flexible, and followed directions perfectly. She communicated with me through her drop in and made sure Nova was well cared for ( and got her to poop which is a big deal to us 😂). Would highly recommend!”
About: As a lifelong animal lover and proud German Shepherd mom, I bring hands-on experience with pets of all kinds, from puppies and seniors to anxious, reactive, and differently-abled dogs. I’ve also cared for cats, birds, bunnies, fish, and geckos, so no pet is too unique! My approach is warm and nurturing by nature, but I adapt to whatever your pet needs. Structured and calm for reactive dogs, playful and patient for puppies, and gentle and attentive for seniors. Every animal deserves to feel safe and loved, and that’s exactly what I deliver. I am currently available during day time, and open to taking on clients in the afternoon if available. Can do overnight sittings Sunday- Wed, and can do multiple visits in the day I am available to take care of pets in your home, whether it’s a walk, sitting or play session. Will adjust dependent on the weather and pet needs

About: I’m based in Raritan, NJ, and have multiple years of professional and personal experience with dog sitting, dog walking, pet care, and pet transportation. I’ve cared for both dogs and cats with different personalities, routines, and needs. I also have experience giving oral medication, including pills and liquid medicine, and I understand how important it is to follow a pet’s normal schedule and routine. I genuinely love dogs and cats equally. I’m great with playful pets that want attention, fetch, or games, as well as chill pets that just want to relax or cuddle. I can also provide references if needed. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I’m currently freelance, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m available throughout the week. I can work around your pet’s normal routine and do my best to accommodate specific feeding, walking, medication, and care schedules. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and the rules of your home. I can handle walks, feeding, playtime, and oral medications when needed. I have years of experience caring for pets and always focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and relaxed.
“Jeffrey was on time and very attentive to our dog. We greatly appreciated his updates and photos. His reliability and caring for our dog gave us peace of mind while we were away.”
“Jillian quickly responded to my request and scheduled a meet and greet for the next day. She took care of our elderly guy and gave him his insulin injection with no problem. She even sent a pic of him to us. We definitely plan on hiring Jillian again!”
About: What sets me apart is the level of personalized care I give every dog. I grew up with a dog, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life, and I truly understand the bond between pets and their owners. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, preferences, and personality so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I have experience with both young puppies and senior dogs, including basic training like leash walking, crate training, and reinforcing good habits. For older dogs, I’m attentive to mobility needs, medication schedules, and creating a calm, low stress environment. I’m also highly reliable, communicative, and detail oriented. You’ll get regular updates, photos, and honest check ins so you always know how your dog is doing. My goal is to make your pet feel at home and give you complete peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work full time but have flexibility to leave early when needed, and I’m fully available on weekends to give pets plenty of attention and care. I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment whether in my home or my client’s. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I work full time but can leave early when needed and am fully available on weekends. During the summer, I have increased availability and can offer even more time and attention.
“We were thrilled to be able to book Bethany again to care for our cat Roscoe. She is super communicative, dependable, and trustworthy. Roscoe would love to see her again in the future!”
About: I'm an experienced dog-walker, sitter, and owner. I adore dogs (sometimes more than humans!). I take extra care with each dog I have the privilege of being with - whether it be a walk, an outing, or a cuddle. Dogs need love, attention, and understanding just like us and I make sure to provide that as much as I can. I am also a volunteer at the animal shelter and have experience with a wide variety of breeds and temperaments. I'm very flexible! Around weekdays and can be free on weekends if needed. I'm willing to work with your schedule! My job and life allow me to be open. I respect your space and needs and follow your lead on how best to care for your pup. I currently am not taking dogs in my home.

They have a lot of energy, so it means a lot that you handled them so well and made sure they got some time outside. It’s great knowing they were in good hands!

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Belle Mead choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
