About: My home was set up for an 80lb dog with a fenced in yard and areas around the house. Should be very comfortable for any dog. I’m very attentive to the pets, making sure their needs are met and that they are safe and sound. When I take on a job, my schedule is pretty cleared out for it since I’m a retired person. I can schedule my time around the care of your pet. I care for pets in my home by keeping an eye on them. Taking them out into the fenced yard and walking them twice a day. If they like to play fetch or tug I’ll do that with them too. I keep them fed, watered, exercised and rested.

About: I am a lifelong dog owner with hands-on experience caring for my own dog as well as watching dogs for friends and family. Through these experiences, I have become comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic care, providing exercise, reinforcing household routines, and giving dogs the attention and companionship they need. What sets me apart is that I understand how important it is to treat every dog like a member of the family. I am dependable, attentive to each dog’s individual needs, and committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and preferences so they can feel secure and happy in my care. I am also comfortable caring for dogs of different ages and energy levels and can accommodate special instructions from owners to ensure consistency and peace of mind. I am a school psychologist off for the summer. I am available through Labor Day for more full time care, and on week nights and weekends during the school year. I have a fenced in yard that is pet friendly! I have a very active five year old golden doodle, so my home is pet proofed.

Finnian was available last min and responded super quickly which is always great in a pinch but not expected. He was open to all my directions for my new puppy and comfortable dropping in without meeting her and not knowing what to expect. Took adorable pics and sent great notes! I do the job full time and so far I’m happy I found him :)

About: -10 years experience fostering dogs -Huge fenced in backyard -Red Cross pet first aid certified -College educated -Beautiful lake views in my neighborhood for walks during boarding -leave written updates reporting pets activities, bathroom use and any other information pertaining to your interests during pet sitting or walking I am a freelance artist, and do e-commerce at my own pace so my schedule is pliable. I am home all day, with the exception of 12pm and 4:30 M-f when I do half hour dog walks for a client in my neighborhood. I grew up in a big family where our dog was always a part of the family and almost like one of the kids. As an adult I have always had dogs as a part of the family and for many years even fostered dogs who were on their journeys to finding a forever home. I have experience with dogs of different temperaments and my dog Milani has been very well socialized with different dogs so she’s very dog friendly and loves to play/snuggle with all of our guests. I work remotely which allows me to be home based during the day outside of a few drop ins for 2 families in our neighborhood whose dogs I walk and feed during the day. I have a large fenced in yard for the dogs to run and play and live in a beautiful neighborhood for walks with multiple water views perfect for getting out and exploring. I have two daughters 11 and 15 and they love dogs just as much if not more than me. Often times I find one of our guests snuggled up in bed with one of them. I have hates in the house as well for the rare occasion that owners do not want their dogs socialized with another dog, which still allows room for them to move around and socialize with myself and the girls.

About: I’ve had my own dog since I’m 7, he’s 12 now and I’ve cared for him ever since he was a puppy. We’ve grown up together, and he has taught me how to love all animals unconditionally. All pets deserve a safe space where they feel loved, at their own pace. I’ve done pet sitting for friends and neighbors over the past few years as well. I have a very flexible schedule right now, and am able to move around plans and obligations for potential clients. I am happy to see your pets as much as needed, and as long as you would like. In your home, I would appreciate specific instructions on how your dog operates on a day to day basis: Do they like to eat at specific times? What’s their favorite way to play? Is there anything specific I can do to make them more comfortable? Anything you could think of that would be helpful for me to know, no matter how strange it could be (some pets have some interesting demands and I completely understand that)

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and other pets for several years, helping friends, family, and neighbors with feeding, walking, and playtime. I’m attentive, patient, and comfortable with pets of all sizes and ages. I also have experience with administering oral medications and care for senior pets. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! I’m currently a college student with a very flexible schedule, which allows me to devote plenty of time and attention to your pets. I’m available for drop-in visits and walks throughout the day on both weekdays and weekends. I can adjust my availability to meet your pet’s routine and needs, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. For your pet’s comfort and safety, I provide care exclusively in your home so they can remain in a familiar environment. I do not offer overnight boarding or bring pets into my own home. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, medication (if needed), and exercise routines. I prioritize keeping your pets safe and their tails wagging while you’re away!

About: I’ve had dogs in my life since day one! I grew up with four huskies throughout my lifetime, more recently a lab, and now I’m a cat mom. I love animals so much and feel strongly about loving and protecting them. I have experience caring for both young and older pets. I am also an active person and love to exercise myself and the dog! I work fully from home with occasional travel so I am always looking for ways to get outside and get some movement in. I am home most of the day/week besides the occasional errands and trip to the gym. Ample time for pet care and activities! When I am with your pet, they will be the number one priority! I will make sure they are safe, happy, and always fed/hydrated. Unlimited pets and good boy/girl at all times.

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs my entire life, including my 10-year-old Black Lab and my American Pit Bull. I’ve helped train both dogs, understand different personalities and energy levels, and am comfortable handling daily walks, feeding, playtime, and basic training. I’m available most weekdays and weekends throughout the summer after June 25th. While working 2-3 days per week, I maintain a flexible schedule for walks and drop-in visits. Beginning September 1st, I’ll be commuting to college classes 3–4 days per week, but I’ll continue offering pet care services with availability before and after classes, as well as on weekends. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special instructions. Whether caring for pets in your home or outside, I help to provide a clean, secure, and loving environment while ensuring they receive plenty of attention, supervision, and affection. I also send regular updates so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for.

About: I'm Michael, your premier local dog walker! Serving the local Two Rivers area and adjacent towns, I provide both dog walking and pet drop in visits that can be scheduled on a consistent or as needed basis. Services can be tailored to the needs of pets and owners alike. Walks are a happy and healthy way to give your pet a bit of exercise and social interaction! 30 minute walks (or longer) can be around your local neighborhood or a nearby park, wherever your dog is most comfortable. If a walk is not the right fit for your dog, a drop-in visit is a great option to provide your pet with some human companionship (potty break and some treats too!). All sizes and breeds are welcome! I have experience with pets of all kinds, including horses! My goal is to provide a relaxed and happy experience for both pet and owner. I offer flexible hours for convenience. Please contact me with any questions or requests! **Have an open and flexible schedule for your needs **I will take time to walk your pet for at least 30 minutes or more upon request I will make sure your cinnabuns get some exercise and everything else they need from being out and about on their walks all while being safe!

Kacy was the best & well worth the $100 tip! She provided last minute services to pick up my Remi (whom she had never met) from the vet and followed detail instructions to take her to the suites. This was a very challenging decision as I am not from or live in NJ and didnt know anyone. This dog lover is the best! I will use her services again hands down! Me & Remi thank you so much Kacy!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Colts Neck

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of June 2026, there are 16,637 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Colts Neck. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Colts Neck 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 Colts Neck 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 .

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.

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 Colts Neck with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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.
