“Ciara was amazing and took great care of our pups. I felt very comfortable with Ciara taking care of our dogs early one because of her experience with dogs with unique behavioral needs. Thanks Ciara!”
“Kelsey is a gem. I have 2 high maintenance greyhounds during a snow storm. I have a decent amount of instructions for their daily routine and she does a great job. The Greys love her. Thank you for taking such good care of my babies!”
“Anahi was great with taking care of our pup and cat. They were quick, friendly and professional from start to finish. Our pup, Frankie requires extra attention and Anahi handled everything great and updated us during the sit.”
“It’s hard to put into words how grateful we are to have found Kate. Our Cockalier, Guinness, is a total love sponge. He’s happiest when he’s close to people and getting plenty of affection. After each of his previous boarding stays, he’d come home with an upset stomach that lasted a week or two. I always worried about how stressed he might be while we were away. About a week before our vacation, I found Kate on Rover and felt at ease with her right away. I also loved that she had a dog of her own, Rosie, and hoped Guinness would have a friend to play with and keep him company. Throughout our trip, Kate sent us photos and videos of their adventures together. We got to see Guinness strolling the boardwalk, exploring nature, and doing his absolute favorite thing: chasing water from the hose. Seeing him so happy and relaxed meant the world to us. For the first time, I could truly enjoy our vacation without worrying about how he was doing. I’ve always thought of dogs as angels on earth, and Kate treated our little boy with all the love and tenderness we could have hoped for. She’s a wonderful sitter and a genuinely kind person. If you’re looking for someone you can trust to care for your dog like family, I can’t recommend Kate highly enough. Thank you, Kate and Rosie, for making Guinness feel right at home.”

“Charlotte was amazing!!! So sweet with our dog and super accommodating when we asked her to stay a bit longer! She was very communicative and sent pictures through the night. Highly recommend her to everyone!”
“Having a strong connection with my boys, I hoped to find someone who could empathize. Rachel empathized and cared for my nervous lab and demanding staffy for 9 days. But more importantly she took time to get to know my guys and me. They were walked, cared for (during a storm, and late evening). The care Rachel provided helped me to enjoy our trip without worry. Thank you, Rachel”
“Kaelah came through for me the same day another sitter canceled! She followed all instructions given and made me feel comfortable choosing the house sitting option. Usually my dog gets sad when I’m away and he seemed to do pretty well with Kaelah watching him. I would use her again if needed!”
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.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and currently care for four cats, including two kittens from a mother cat I rescued, rehabilitated, and had spayed. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, medications, behavioral quirks, and providing patient, attentive care. I also care for a bearded dragon, so I understand the importance of routines, habitat care, and attention to detail for pets with specific needs. I have hands-on experience caring for a variety of animals and personalities. I prioritize safety, consistency, and treating every pet as if they were my own. I work independently with a flexible schedule while attending school mostly online and one class Monday night, which gives me the ability to plan my days around pet care. This allows me to provide reliable check-ins, attentive visits, and consistent routines. Daily care matters to me, from scooping litter and maintaining clean feeding areas to giving my bearded dragon his supplements and proper habitat care. I make sure pets get regular playtime, calm downtime, and their own space, while staying attentive to routines and any changes in behavior.

I promise to care for your pets like my own. 💙 I work full-time about 8:30-5 fully remote - so wherever I have WiFi I'm all set! I love to house sit so I can give your pets even more love and attention throughout the day. However, I am also available for occasional drop-ins in the morning and evening during the week, and am usually fully available on weekends. I pride myself in following your instructions to a T. I'll always leave your home clean and your pets happy, fed, and safe. I also make it a priority to gather emergency information before any booking to be prepared in the case of any situation. Finally, I ask that I please be made aware of any cameras inside and/or outside of the home for the safety of myself and your pets.
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.
“Joy was an absolutely ideal dog sitter. She really did look after my dog as if he was her own. She monitored his eating habits, kept to his walk schedule, and gave my boy lots and lots of love. 100% would recommend and will definitely re-book in the future!”
“It was such an absolute pleasure having Shri over. He took incredible care of Gregorie and Fredrex, and we are so grateful for his generosity and tremendous help. Shri was wonderful, he took Gregorie on daily walks, gave the cat her medicine, and stayed with them to keep them company while we were away. We cannot thank you enough, Shri!”

Jessica is so great with our puppy Honey! She got honey to warm up to her right away with positive rewards and lots of fun play. Honey is always so calm and happy after Jessica takes care of her. We felt confident leaving her with Jessica overnight and Honey loved snuggling and playing with her!
So glad we got to book Melissa to stay with Opie and Azula for the weekend. She was super responsive, sent plenty of pupdates (which is what we all want while we’re away, of course), and kept my two couch potatoes company! Would definitely book again for future in-house sitting. Thanks Melissa! 😊
We absolutely love Sheryl but more then that our little girl Sugar loves her !She is so excited to see her every time she comes to sit with her and play and just give her love and attention and don’t forget the belly rubs not just anybody get’s to rub the belly ! Thank you again Sheryl🐶😍
Couldn't love Brandon more if we tried! He has the most calm and patient demeanor and took such good care of our little Dachshund, Ravioli. This was the first time we were leaving him alone with anyone but my fiance and me, so we were nervous. Brandon came for our dinners so we could have an evening out and he made fast friends with Ravioli. He also helped him through some firework fears as this was the 3rd of July. Ravioli was thrilled to see him on their second night and allowed us dinner in peace. Brandon threw his ball and played with him until he was all tuckered out. Thank you so much, Brandon!
Savannah dog & house sat for about 8 days for us. She was very responsible. It was nice that she took the time to come meet the dogs and go over what the job entailed prior to our vacation. We were pleased with the care she gave our pups, and how nicely she kept the house. We will absolutely hire her again, and would recommend her.

Kaining did a fantastic job taking care of my two dogs for a week, as well as taking care of my home. She administered medications to both my dogs. She was very responsible, kept to their schedule, played and snuggled with them! I would recommend her to take care of your fur babies.
Hunter took wonderful care of my sweet animals while we were away. My senior dog wasn’t feeling well and was unable to move from her bed, which could have been incredibly stressful. Hunter handled the situation with so much care, patience, and compassion. She was able to easily administer her medications, made sure she was comfortable at all times, and gave her the attentive, thoughtful care she needed during a vulnerable moment. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in such capable and loving hands. She also made sure our cat was well cared for and loved while we were away. I’m incredibly grateful for Hunter and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, kind, and trustworthy pet caregiver.
Kristen did a great job cat-sitting at my house. I left way too many instructions, which she followed perfectly. And both of my shy cats were comfortable enough to make appearances - one even let her pet him. She was also excellent at communicating and sending pictures. I highly recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Belmar is $103 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $44 and $163 per night. 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 10,810 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Belmar. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Belmar walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Belmar maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Belmar 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!
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Belmar. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
