“Jackie was everything I could have asked for in a cat sitter. She was on time every time, she did her chores, and gave Larry extra love and attention. Larry is an old, grumpy cat but Jackie seemed to conquer him. I never worried while I was away because of Jackie’s professionalism and caring.”
“Ryan was great with our very energetic five month old German Shorthair Pointer. He spent lots of time outside with him and sent lots of pictures. He was flexible with adjusting timing when our plans changed slightly.”
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.
About: Senior in high school with two years’ pet care experience and my own dog. Passionate about animals and exploring vet school. Loving, reliable, and attentive. Senior in high school with weekday extracurriculars during the first months. Available weekends and holidays, with flexible hours outside school activities for quality pet care. I provide loving, safe care—cuddles, playtime, fresh food, and water. Your pet’s comfort and happiness always come first in a caring, trustworthy, and nurturing environment.
About: I'm new to Rover but definitely not new to doggos! I've been around dogs my entire life. We had a soft coated wheaten growing up, and I rescued a lab mix when I was in college about 8 years ago. As a sole caretaker of a dog, I know how to read dogs' body language extremely well and can adjust my behavior accordingly. I've also babysat/walked friends' dogs throughout my young adult life so I'm very experienced in caring for puppers of all shapes, sizes and attitudes :) I am a middle school teacher on summer vacation so my schedule is open for all your dog walking and sitting needs! Book with me! If you have any special instructions regarding your pups walk, just let me know and I can follow them! If they need to be crated that's no problem, and can leave them with fresh food and water if need be! Whatever will make them more comfy :)
“Laura was absolutely great!! She took the effort to meet me a few times prior, so we could practice and learn how to do my cat's inhaler therapy and she was able to consistently do it for him this time! Very very pleased with the outcome!”
About: I believe what sets me apart is the level of care, attention, and communication I provide. Since I work from home full-time, pets receive consistent supervision, companionship, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. I have a spacious yard for supervised outdoor play, and I treat every pet like a member of my own family. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to follow each owner's instructions carefully—from feeding schedules and exercise to medications and special preferences. I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable while you're away. I also know how important peace of mind is for pet parents, which is why I provide regular photo and video updates and maintain open communication throughout every stay. My goal is for both you and your pet to have a stress-free, positive experience from start to finish. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. Pet care is a part of my daily routine, including walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of affection. I make sure every pet receives individual attention and never feels neglected. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow your pet's routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medication (if needed), exercise, and any special instructions. I keep a clean, pet-friendly environment, supervise pets at all times, and provide regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I take the time to build trust with each pet, allowing them to adjust at their own pace and using positive reinforcement to help them feel safe and comfortable.
About: I am currently working as a veterinary technician and have extensive pet sitting experience. I have a dog and 3 cats of my own and would love the opportunity to care for your pets as if they were my own! I can care for all sizes of dogs, cats, and other pets. I'm able to medicate, administer insulin or other injections, or anything medical. I'm very good with scared or unsure pets and have a knack for helping them feel more comfortable. I'm happy to spend time with the pets, walking them, playing with them, or just spending time petting them. I have loved and cared for animals since I was young and am hoping to have the opportunity to care for yours as well! I work from home and can be flexible with drops in and walks. I am also free all weekend! I can do drops ins, walks, overnights or medication administration. I will always make sure to follow your preferred schedule and make sure to take care of all needs you have for your pet! We can walk, play, snuggle, whatever they prefer!
“Svetlana was fantastic with our little Shihtzu baby girl. She sent me photos and updates while she was there. Sweetie seemed very happy to hang out with her. Thank you Svetlana!”
“My dogs took to Marc right away. He was at ease with both of my big guys and sent me cute videos of them playing. Marc really likes animals and it shows on how he cares for them. Looking forward to having him back when the need arises.”
“Cassidy is a wonderful, experienced, thoughtful dog sitter. I returned from my trip and my mini-bernedoodle Zoe was clearly happy and content from her time spent with Cassidy. I highly recommend Cassidy for watching your pup.”
About: I’ve take care of dogs since 7 years old. I love spend time with them, I wish I can have my own shelter to protect and save street dogs. I’m a professional real estate agent and I work from home, I have an amazing managing time to do extra activities and also I’m an active person. I have a fence backyard, I will take care of the dog inside the house. I can take care and maybe provide training because of my experience with different breed.
About: I have years of hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. High-energy dogs get real exercise thanks to my competitive soccer background, while puppies, seniors, and shy cats get patience and a routine that matches what they know from home. I work from home Mondays and Fridays, so pets get genuine attention and company, not just a quick check-in. Expect photo updates, fast communication, and a happy pet when you walk in the door. Pet care fits naturally into my week. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, so pets staying with me those days have company from morning to night, with walks, play sessions, and meals built right into my day. On weekends I'm home and fully available, which makes Friday through Sunday stays easy and stress-free. My schedule is consistent week to week, so your pet gets a reliable routine: morning walk or feeding, midday play and attention, and evening wind-down time. I'm an active person, so daily exercise is never skipped. In my home, pets are part of the family. Dogs get multiple daily walks, playtime, and constant company since I work from home Mondays and Fridays and I'm around all weekend. I keep your pet's feeding schedule and routine exactly the same as at home so the stay feels familiar. Cats get a quiet, consistent setup with their litter, food, and favorite spots. In your home, I follow your routine exactly: feeding, walks, litter, and anything else your pet needs, plus photo updates every visit so you know they're doing great.
“I’m so glad we were able to meet with Emily and have her sit for our cats! Our cats got along with her right away. She went above and beyond for everything. She was very reliable and communicative which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away!”
“Amazing! Our doggies loved him. He took extra care and truly altered his schedule to surround our dogs at the center of it. Consistently responsive, and let us know of every single detail which was most appreciative. Excited to book him again!”
About: I love going on walks and would love a furry friend to join me! Friends and their families have trusted me to check in on their dogs while they’re away making sure they’re fed, taken out, and getting the walks they need. Since I only work on weekends, my weekdays are wide open! I’m happy to check in and take your pup out anytime between 10 AM and 7 PM, Monday through Thursday, barring anything unexpected Although I don’t have pets of my own, I’m fully focused on yours. I take care to keep your pet safe and at ease in their home environment, and I make sure every walk is in a peaceful, spacious area where they can stretch their legs and enjoy themselves
“Jake really came through in a pinch! I reached out to him same day…on a Friday and asked if he could do a drop in visit for our dog, Pru, at night! Not only did he do it, he also came over earlier that afternoon to meet Pru. Jake is a sweetheart and is so good with dogs. I recommend him highly. Thank you, Jake. Pru love you❤️”
About: I am a 24 year old Graduate Student at Rutgers University and have been taking care of neighborhood and personal pets since I was 10! Not only have I taken care of animals in a home setting, but I have 2 years of experience in caring for animals in a veterinary setting as a veterinary assistant. I am happy to assist in any sort of special care that your pet might need - I have experience with animals of all shapes and sizes! I currently have two cats of my own that I take care of myself full-time and would love the chance to love your pet as much as you do! I currently work as a graduate student in a research lab at Rutgers University! I am very flexible and will communicate the exact times I will be caring for your pets :) I only offer services that take place in the client's home/neighborhood as I have two animals of my own! I am flexible with walk times and really enjoy nature so I am happy to take dogs for lengthy walks. I am also appreciative of any type of animal love so couch potatoes are great for me as well! I am very diligent about making sure that animals are safe with me. I ensure that when entering the home, I greet the animal gently and let them come to me. I will never push the boundaries of an animal or add stress to their home environment. I also am very detail oriented, and will make sure that your animal gets everything they need.
“Alyssa and luke are both absolutely AMAZING!!! She accepted the job of watching my little baby kitty less than 24 hours in advance. She texted me with photo updates anytime she went over and had wonderful communication the entire time. This was my first time leaving kitty alone with someone and she made sure to put my mind at ease. I would trust Alyssa or Luke anytime with any of my animals and highly recommend working with them!”

Anastasia went above and beyond taking care of our kitten. Our flight was delayed and she was more than accommodating. Our kitten was super happy and content when we got home. Everything was left super clean and she even took the garbage out! Would definitely recommend Anastasia to anyone needing a pet sitter :)
We booked Emily for weekend drop-in visits for our cavapoo. She communicated promptly, followed all instructions, and sent photo updates throughout her visits. Our pup seemed happy and settled, and everything was done as expected. A smooth and dependable service. Thank you!!

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

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 Far Hills 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Far Hills. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
