About: a dog owner myself and living in an area surrounded by owners who I’ve helped over the years to take care either walk, stay over night, or just a cuddle buddy, I’ve worked from puppies all the way to senior puppies I work full time but my hours vary each day so I know what days work better and will be able to help anyone whenever requests assistance for their loving furry friend my dog is trained off leash, but I don’t have a fenced backyard I love at a dead end so I have a lot of space to run around if need but a big area in neighborhood for walks to the park or just in town.
“Mariia was wonderful! So kind and our cat adored her! She was very communicative and kept us very updated on our cat as we were away. We will definitely book her again!”

I am a teacher and mom who would like to help care for your dog. I have a large yard for playtime and great neighborhood for dog walking. I’m flexible to the needs of animals that come from different situations. It’s important to me that pets feel a part of a family and that is what I strive for when pet sitting in my home. We have a busy family life in which everyone that walks past your dog they will give it a petting and some live. Consider this as a home away from home for your dog. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time to work with your dogs. I am available for boarding on weekends. Someone is always home at my house. I have two dog friendly pups. I have a large yard and quiet neighborhood for dog-walking. I am able to crate your dog if needed.
About: Hi! My name is Rosie and I have been caring for pets for friends, neighbors, and families for many years. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, overnight stays, and giving pets the attention and care they deserve while their owners are away. Outside of pet sitting, I have years of babysitting experience, a Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science from Seton Hall University, and I am currently in nursing school. My background has taught me responsibility, patience, and attention to detail. I’m dependable, caring, and will treat your pets like they are my own. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you feel comfortable while away! I am currently available all summer with a very flexible schedule and would love to help care for your pets while you’re away on vacations, working long hours, or just need an extra helping hand. I am available for drop-ins, walks, and overnight stays, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine including feeding times, walks, playtime, medications, and plenty of love and attention. I will be starting nursing school again in September, so my availability may change slightly, but I will always communicate ahead of time and do my best to continue providing reliable, consistent care. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home. I will always treat your pets like they are my own by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I am respectful of every owner’s home and will follow all instructions, routines, feeding schedules, and special requests to provide the best care possible.

“Alexis was a terrific cat-sitter! She watched my Maine Coon, Moo Moo, last week while I was on a family vacation. She took great care of Moo & touched base with me daily to update me. Moo "bonded" with Alexis & by the end of the week they were buds. What more could I ask for! I would highly recommend Alexis to care for your pets.”
“Shannon did a wonderful job taking care of our cats while we were on vacation. She was very responsive during setup, she sent pictures and notes after each visit, and went above and beyond expectations. We would highly recommend her services to anyone.”
About: I am a teacher looking for something to do on weekends and the summertime! I love love dogs and cats! I have had multiple dogs and cats growing up since I was born in the 90’s. On my own I have 2 dogs and 1 cat whom I love so very much! I have taken care of family pets, neighbors pets, and other types of pets like birds! I’m a teacher. So weekends work the best! Once summer hits in mid June, then I’m available M-F, too! Since I’m a kindergarten teacher, I’m a nurturer, and a huge lover of animals. My mother donates to the ASPCA and WWF every year. I will do my absolute best to cater to the needs of your furry family members, whether dog or cat! Crates, special foods, treats, toys, or just plain quality time! I’m here for the vibes! I also would love to meet the pups or cats before the services start to see if we are a match!
About: I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels, and I always adjust to their routine to keep them comfortable and happy. I’m attentive, patient, and pay close attention to their behavior and needs. I make sure dogs get the exercise they need through walks and playtime, while also giving them lots of attention and affection so they feel safe and cared for. I always follow your instructions closely and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you know how your dog is doing! I also used to work at a puppy kennel & pet shop so I know how to take care of energetic puppies! I am available everyday of the week and weekend except for Sundays and days I have doctor appointments. I also cannot watch over a pet if it is on Christmas, Easter or Thanksgiving, but any other time I’ll gladly watch them for you! :) In your home I will make sure to clean up after any messes your little furbabys make and I’ll always be respectful of your house. I will also make sure they have food, and that they have my attention while I’m there!
About: I’ve had multiple dogs throughout my life, from months old to 14 years old. I’ve managed medication schedules and walking routines multiple times a day for a senior dog with special care needs. I’m comfortable with everything from small, calm dogs to big, hyper ones. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with dogs of any age. I’m home from college right now, so I have plenty of flexibility to play with your pups! I’m available for drop-ins and walks on weekends and weekdays, including daytime hours. I can accommodate flexible scheduling throughout the week depending on what you need. My whole house has been set up with our dogs in mind, so your pup will be just as safe and comfortable as at home. I have secure gates and safe spaces to keep dogs contained when needed, along with plenty of room to play. When caring for your dog, I make sure they’re fed on schedule, given regular bathroom breaks and walks, and supervised closely at all times. I hold every dog in our care to the same standard of attention and love that I give my own.
About: I have been a pet owner since birth, and know that pets are more like family than anything else. My 2 dogs are like my children, and aren’t treated any less. I believe dogs offer us so much, from unlimited cuddles, to a distraction from a stressful week of work. Furry friends are an ESSENTIAL to any home, and all families. With crazy work schedules and hardly enough time to take care of yourself, it may seem attainable to take on the responsibility that come with owning a dog. I, however, am more than happy to assist you with your pet’s needs. I would love to take your pet on a walk around the town for a little fresh air, as well as give your pet any necessary medication that you may be unable to give due to a interfering schedule. Your dog deserves all the love that they radiate to us, and I am more than happy to provide them with some of that.
“I was very nervous about using an online service to have someone watch my precious babies, as I had never done so before. Jennifer came for a meet and greet, took notes on what needed to be done, and took the girls for a walk with me to see where they normally walked. I booked 3 drop ins with Jennifer. Each drop in I received a report and photos on how the girls were doing. Jennifer put me at ease and kept me well informed each and every time. I will certainly use her again!!”
“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!”
“This was our second time hiring Roshni and she took amazing care of our cat Lola, followed all our instructions and sent us lots of photos and updates. We’re so grateful she could help us out over the Christmas holiday and we will definitely hire her again for our next trip. Thank you!!”
“Ola was an angel! We had to make two modifications to our original booking over this holiday weekend and she was so helpful and accommodating. She went above and beyond my expectation when it came to cleaning up a pet mess in our home. And she was so kind and loving to our fur babies each and every time she came to see them. I am so grateful that we met Ola and I look forward to working with her in the future.”
“Hannah is absolutely amazing! She took such great care of my dog Olivia while I was away. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Olivia was in such loving and capable hands. Hannah sent regular updates, adorable photos, and made sure Olivia got plenty of attention, walks, and playtime. I couldn’t have asked for a better dog walker Olivia clearly adored her too! Highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring.”

As a last-minute first time visit, Amy was so easy to work with. We were able to communicate easily, and I felt so comfortable having her take care of Gino because she was communicating so well with me and this is without having a meet and greet prior. Great first experience!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Branchburg stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Branchburg 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
To find sitters in Branchburg with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
