“Cori was an amazing pet sitter and house sitter. This was my first time using Rover and it could not have gone better. I was updated daily with pictures. Which allowed me to enjoy my vacation so much more. Having my two dogs being watched in their own home by such attentive and loving caregivers was a blessing. Cori and Katia gave both Fred and Sky lots of love and walks on the beach every day. Sky is 13 years old and Fred is 8 years old and they were able to give them medication and I felt comfortable leaving them with our Vet and emergency contact knowing that they would be able to handle anything that came their way while I was halfway across the world. I would not hesitate to call Cori again to watch Fred and Sky. My dogs probably miss them! You’re in good hands with Cori. Trust me :)”

“Kathy has shown up when she has said she will show up and send lots of updates and pictures, which make me feel much better. My dogs clearly seemed to enjoy her and her husband's company and are so much happier staying at home when we are away. Kathy also refunded us some of our fee when we decided to come home early last minute, which she did not have to do. We will definitely be using Kathy again :D”

About: Hi there! My name is Kristin and I have a lifelong passion for all animals. Growing up on a horse farm, I was surrounded by various animals and always had cats and dogs as pets. Outside of having pets growing up, I have helped out friends and family members with dog, cat, and house sitting for them over the past 10+ years. I have experience with a variety of breeds, ranging from big breeds such as Pitbulls and Boxers to smaller breeds like Yorkies and Jack Russells. I care for all animals with all my heart and your pets will be in loving hands with me! I work full time in Monmouth county, so weekends would be ideal for me. However, if your pet doesn't need to go out as frequently, I can definitely help out during the week. I am typically out of the house between 10am-6pm, so I can play with/walk/feed them before or after those times. Weekends are totally open for me so I can do whatever your pet needs. In my client's home, I will follow their typical routine and do whatever they do to care for their pets. I always respect their home and make sure I leave it as clean as possible.

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.

About: As an EMT and pet owner, I’m dependable, attentive, and comfortable staying calm when unexpected situations arise. I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pets and home while you’re away. I’m happy to provide walks, meals, playtime, companionship, photo updates, and plenty of affection while following your pet’s normal routine and any instructions you provide! I work longer shifts 4 days each week, which gives me 3 full days off each week to dedicate to pet care. My availability varies by day, but I keep my calendar updated and only accept bookings I know I can fully accommodate. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays depending on the dates and your pet’s routine. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine and care instructions closely so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m careful with doors, gates, leashes, feeding instructions, and any household rules you provide. As an EMT, I’m dependable, attentive, and comfortable staying calm if something unexpected happens. I’ll also send regular photos and updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: I will provide a fun, family friendly home for your beloved pet to stay while you are away. I have had 1 wonderful dog of a mixed breed that I grew up with during my childhood and one large breed dog that I owned for 10 years during my young adulthood. I currently have 3 dogs at home, 2 pugs and a female golden retriever. I only hope they can bring joy and fulfillment to my children as they grow with our family. I appreciate the time and money that you have spent in utilizing a service such as this instead of a boarding kennel. Thank you for your consideration and I hope we can meet soon! I currently work from home so I am available to care for your beloved pet at anytime of the day. I can do multiple drop-in visits throughout the day. My hours are very flexible. I can walk your dog around the neighborhood if that is what you prefer or let them out into your backyard if you would like drop-in visits at your home. I also provide boarding at my home if that is what you need. I have an unfenced backyard with a lead in the ground so your pet can be in the backyard and have safety and security to run around or I can take them on walks if that is what you would like. I also provide overnight stays as well.

About: I approach each pet like you would a human by meeting their needs with love. I keep a clean house as well as the fur baby. I am very accommodating and friendly. I request at least 3 days notice unless an urgent need arises. I have experience with training dogs/cats. I’ve house sat for pet owners and cleaned. I’ve even taken care of exotic pets. I’ve worked with rescues who shy away from people. Let’s have a meet with your fur baby and discuss if I can meet your needs. I treat each fur baby like family! I ask to meet up so that the animal feels a sense of trust with me before you part for your journey away. I’d also like to meet you and put your mind at ease.

About: I was raised alongside litters of puppies and my life has revolved around animals ever since. My family consistently had 8-10 dogs in our home, ranging from big dogs like labs or American bulldogs to smaller dogs like French bulldogs or terrier mixes. Since I was in elementary school, I was tasked with feeding, grooming, walking and playing with all of our dogs. As an adult, I've helped my parents out in watching their many dogs (my dad has 12!) when they are out of town and pet-sitting for friends and family. I adopted my own two cats, who I've had since they were kittens, and love them with almost my whole heart - I have two ferrets that take up some space in my heart too. Ferrets are notoriously difficult pets to take care of, so if I can handle them and all their energy & mischief, I think I'm prepared to take care of just about any creature. I have been conscientious, responsible and caring for my own pets and I promise I'll treat yours the same way :) I work 9-5 on a hybrid schedule but, as a manager, I have flexibility in terms of remote work — I can always change my schedule around to accommodate yours! I need advanced notice for overnight bookings, as I commute into the city twice a week. I can always switch my-in office days with enough of a head's up, so please reach out if my current calendar availability doesn't align with yours! We may be able to work something out. Unfortunately, I know the feeling of coming home from a trip and realizing that some little things were unattended to by a friend I'd trusted with my pets: the water fountain was half full, the litter box hadn't been scooped in a few days, their 24/7 bird streaming YouTube video wasn't on (lol). Of course my pets were still fed, but it didn't feel like they were cared for the same way I would have. I promise that won't happen if I am entrusted with your pet. I am very good at noticing and handling those little details, even if you forgot to mention them, because that's what I would want. That said, I am great at following pet-care instructions, and I'll surely feed, walk, play with (and love) your furry friend according to the schedule you set out.

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!

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.

Alexis was undaunted by the fact that the 6-hour pet-sitting job was at our hotel. Other sitters were put off by that, so it was a real hassle getting someone to take nearly $100 for watching TV a few miles from home with two loving dogs. Alexis totally got it, and she was the consummate professional, taking the pooches to the pet relief area 50 feet from the door more frequently than just the once required. Cheery and mature, a good communicator, good with the photos and videos.

FAQs for House Sitting - Bradley Beach

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Bradley Beach is $48 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 and $78 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 October 2026, there are 12,452 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bradley Beach. 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 Bradley Beach 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 Bradley Beach 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.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Bradley Beach 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 , 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 .

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 .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Bradley Beach. On Rover:

  • 85% 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.
