About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with dogs and my genuine love for caring for them. I've had dogs my whole life, so I'm comfortable with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I provide dependable, attentive care and make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved. Whether it's keeping up with an energetic puppy, maintaining routines, or giving extra patience and attention to senior dogs, I treat every pet as if they were my own! Getting that exercise is also apart of my routine, my schedule can be pretty flexible with mornings or nights multiple times a week!! Love walking When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent and stress-free. During walks, I make sure dogs get plenty of exercise, attention, and safe outdoor time. For drop-in visits, I provide fresh water, feeding if needed, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of affection. I always treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life until I lost my last one in 2023 and decided to adopts cats. But there’s nothing like a bond between a dog and a human. I have taken care of family and friends dogs since I was a teenager. I haven’t for a while and I miss doing it I work monday- friday but am home by 5. I am off wednesday mornings as well and on the weekends. So i’d be a great walker! I follow a strict program. Wherever I am needed in the house, I will be there. I will not break the privacy of a client.

About: Hello! Im Alissa :) I am a huge animal lover that can’t wait to help you with you and your pets needs! I have cared for and loved many animals from dogs to cats, reptiles, rodents and more ! I’m looking forward to getting to know your little companions unique personality and funny quirks but most importantly making sure they feel comfortable and safe. Since I was a little girl I looked for anyway to take care of animals, for instants, while my sister was in cheer practice I was going around asking if people wanted me to watch, walk or play with their dog and was very successful lol. Growing up I mostly stayed helping only friends and family with pet sitting but now I think it’s time to help others! Through the years I’ve had dogs, cats, rats, hermit crabs, snakes, geckos and much more. My goal in life is to have a farm or a rescue so I can care for many animals and make sure they all get to experience the wonderful life they deserve. I’m looking forward to becoming a trusted friend to both you and your four legged companion! I am currently in school to become a dental hygienist and my school hours did not align with the required hours for my job. Therefore I am looking for a new opportunity with more of a flexible schedule and I’d love to give my open time to care for your little companions :) I am enrolled in a weekend program so I am more available on the weekdays with a few hours on the weekends! Your pets’ safety, comfort and trust will always be my top priority! I unfortunately do not offer boarding in my own home since I live with my grandma and have animals of my own. I want to make sure everyone stays safe and comfortable. However, I’m more than happy to stay in your home, where your little companions are already familiar with their surroundings and can feel most relaxed. I’m also big on sending plenty of pictures, videos and updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your babies are happy, safe, and getting lots of love while you’re away!

About: Hello my name is Antonio. All my life I have been surrounded by cats and dogs. I love playing with animals and taking them out for long walks. Also, I am able to administer any oral medication or treatment needed for your furry friends!!! I am a middle school special education science teacher, so during the summer I am free. Mondays are my long days but other than that I am pretty much free any day of the week. I treat all animals as if they were my own, and I give them the proper care they deserve. I have a mini fenced in backyard but I may do walks around the block. I am able to provide separation during feedings, and any accommodations that are necessary for your loved one to feel happy and safe.

Our first family dog Wishbone lived 17 years and I took care of him in his older years which shows I’m good with senior dogs. I also currently have a Chihuahua who is 16 and a Goldendoodle who is 9. I’ve helped digit my neighbors dogs for years throughout high school and college. They had 2 chihuahuas and a boxer. I am okay with big dogs, small dogs any kind of dogs.

I care for the dogs by providing love, affection and compassion. I also make sure to read dog’s body language in order to protect myself but also keep the dog safe.

About: Hi ☺️ my name is Dennisse and I have lots of experience taking care of pets, including my 11 year old cat Flame and my 10 year old Labrador mix Muff! I love all animals and promise to give them tons of love during my visits and walks! One of my favorite parts of the day is walking my dog Muff because we both get some much needed exercise and we walk a different route everyday because you know walking the same route and smelling the same things everyday can be boring so I gotta mix it up to keep him entertained. I want to spread the love and care to other pets so here I am creating a Rover profile because my boyfriend said I can’t have any more pets 😅. Thank you for reading and I hope you have a fantastic day! I work from home three times a week and my fiancé is home the other two so there is always someone here to watch the fur babies. I usually take my dog for a long walk once a day and we play in the yard as well. I like to maintain the pet’s routine as much as possible because that reduces anxiety and allows the pet to trust me and feel happy. I like to play with cats and dogs and take dogs out for walks or do a scavenger hunt in the backyard to tire them out so they can sleep peacefully at night.

About: Hello! Thank you for checking out my profile! I live in Asbury Park, however, I’ll be dogsitting in Montclair from Dec. 25-31 so I now have my page set to Montclair to be available for holiday week dog walks. Since I was a child, I’ve taken care of dogs of every kinds, cats, turtles, fish, rabbits, hamsters, and chickens. I’m open to taking care of a snake but I might need a minute to get comfortable! I grew up with a sweet bichon frise and cocker spaniel. In 2016, I started house sitting and walking dogs for clients, neighbors, friends, and family. I have experience with all dogs- young, old, and special needs. I have given medication to cats and dogs for medical conditions and separation anxiety, in addition to providing extra love and care. I love animals and would be glad to help you have a wonderful vacation knowing your pets are well cared for! If you have any questions, feel free to be in touch. I’m available for dog walks, pet drop-ins, and housesitting in the pet parent’s home on weekdays and weekends. I taught special education for the last ten years but will not be returning this year, so my availability has opened up. A little more about my background: I earned a Bachelor of Science in Community Health Education with a concentration in Health Promotion and Culture and a Master of Education in Special Education. Before changing careers to teaching, I worked with veterans and at a free health clinic as the Community Health Education Coordinator. I can provide house sitting in your home and take care of your pet’s individual needs. At this time, I cannot board pets in mine. Unfortunately, my landlord won’t allow pets.

About: Hi, I’m Vincent. I’m a U.S. Marine Corps & U.S. Army veteran and lifelong dog owner based in Monmouth County, New Jersey. Dogs have been a major part of my life for as long as I can remember. I extensive experience handling all size and high-energy breeds that require structure, exercise, and consistency. I provide dog walking and drop-in visits focused on safety, reliability, and your dog’s individual needs. Whether your dog needs a quick potty break, a neighborhood walk, playtime, feeding, medication reminders, or simply companionship while you’re away, I will treat them like one of my own. My military background taught me attention to detail, accountability, and professionalism. You can expect clear communication, punctual service, and regular photo updates during every visit. I am currently furthering my canine education through the CATCH Canine Trainers Academy and continuously learning about dog behavior, enrichment, and proper handling techniques. I look forward to meeting you and your dog and becoming someone you can trust whenever you need help caring for your pets. I currently work part-time and offer dog walking and drop-in visits around my work schedule. I am available all day on Mondays, after 2:30 PM on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and have limited availability on Thursdays. I strive to be dependable, punctual, and responsive when scheduling visits. Whether your dog needs a midday walk, evening exercise, feeding, or a drop-in check, I will communicate clearly and work to accommodate your pet’s needs whenever possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a veteran and dog owner, I understand the importance of consistency, attention to detail, and following instructions. During every visit, I carefully follow your pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), exercise requirements, and any special instructions. I always ensure doors, gates, and leashes are secure and provide photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own.

About: I've always had a huge love for dogs, and with years of hands-on experience, I've had the opportunity to care for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities! I spent four years at Pet Supplies Plus as a dog bather, where I learned firsthand the patience and dedication that go into caring for dogs. I've also worked with dogs who prefer their personal space, dogs who may be shy or hesitant around other dogs, and senior dogs or dogs with mobility issues who need a little extra help, including getting up and down stairs. As a Clinical Mental Health Counseling master's student, I bring a unique level of patience, attentiveness, and understanding to the care I provide. I believe every dog deserves to have their individual needs and personality respected, whether that means endless cuddles and playtime or giving them the space and comfort they need. I'm happy to meet each dog where they're at and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I also love sending plenty of pictures and updates so you never have to worry while you're away! I make it a priority to create a dedicated schedule for you and your pets that works around their individual needs, including meals, walks, playtime, and overnight care. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate pet care throughout the week. As a graduate student, I do have some classes and internship commitments, but I am able to plan around those to ensure your pets receive plenty of attention and care. I have the most flexibility on weekends and love to spend the entire day with your pets. I am also available for overnights and will have even more flexibility during school breaks, including winter break. I will even put together a written schedule outlining feeding times, walks, playtime, and when I will be with your pets, so you know exactly what their routine will look like while they are in my care. My goal is to make sure your pets feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while keeping their routine as consistent as possible! I always prefer to arrange a meet-and-greet beforehand so I can get to know you and your pet, learn their routine, and understand your preferences. I want your pet to feel comfortable and familiar with me before you leave. I'm also comfortable caring for pets with mobility challenges or health conditions, and accidents or unexpected messes are never a problem! I pay close attention to changes in behavior or signs that something may be wrong so I can recognize when a pet might need additional or emergency care. During longer stays and overnights, I love having a new study buddy and making sure they receive plenty of attention and companionship. I prioritize their health and safety, including being mindful of their surroundings and other animals during walks. I also send plenty of pictures and updates so you always know how your pet is doing! I make sure to leave your home neat and tidy, clean up after your pet, and vacuum when needed so you can come home to a happy pet and a tidy space!

And the smallest dog I have taken care of was less than 20 pounds. I have been surrounded my dogs my whole life and I know I will enjoy this job so much. I also love kitties and have been taking care of them for 3 years! I have a cat of my own who I adore. I cannot wait to take care of all the amazing animals.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Colts Neck

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Colts Neck is $27 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $28 per visit. 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 16,445 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Colts Neck. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 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 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.

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:

  • 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 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.
