About: I've loved animals my whole life! I have a naturally calm presences that pets immediately pick up on. I'm dependable, communicative, and will share lots of pictures to keep you updated. I'm a college student home for the summer. I have a very flexible schedule and can be available whenever you need me. I have my own transportation and can be where your pet needs me, when they need me. I follow your pet’s exact routine, feeding times, walk schedule, sleeping spots, so they barely notice you’re gone. I'll send photo updates throughout the day and reach out immediately if anything seems off. Your home will be left exactly as I found it.
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’ve taken care of dogs of every kind, from my family dog to my friend’s dogs with special behavioral needs. My family and friends have relied on me to feed, walk, and give medication to their dogs and cats. I currently work part time at a dance studio for children that is mainly open during the evenings, allowing me to have a flexible schedule during the day for more walks and playtime. I can walk, feed, play with, and give medications to your fur baby to give them the extra love and attention they want during the day.
About: Dogs and cats are more than pets, they're family. I understand that more than anything and I will treat them with care, respect, and love. I work a part time job and have lots of time on my hands, so (unless stated otherwise), I'll be there for your furry friends! I don't mind transporting dogs in my car for the park or walking them around the neighborhood. And of course, I'll make sure they're well taken care of at home.

Not a day goes by that I'm not taking care of the family pets or someone else's. I have walked, checked on, and baby sat dogs of all different shapes and sizes. I use to take care of my neighbors dogs, when she wasn't available. Took dogs to the vet when they had no one else to do it. And I have been a dog walker for about 5 years now. I have walked small dogs such as miniature poodles to bigger dogs such as pitbulls. Your furry friend will be in good hands. I'm currently working part time on Mondays through Fridays, but I have a flexible schedule. I'll feed and take the dog out in the mornings, and after work. During the weekend they'll have my fully undevivded attention through out the whole day I have a fenced in yard with several friendly dogs who will happily play with visitors. I also have some cats but they keep to themselves, lounging around in a separate room from the dogs. Your pets will mostly be under my watchful eye, for I will be home, most of the day watching them.

“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: Hi! I’ve been dog sitting for about 7 years and have experience with pups as young as 4 months all the way up to senior dogs. I honestly love them all, but puppies are my favorite because of their energy, and I also love a good cuddle with an older dog. I’m comfortable with all breeds and personalities, and I always try to match whatever routine your dog is used to so they feel happy and comfortable while you’re away. Whether that’s walks, trips to the dog park, or just hanging out at home, I’m happy to do it all. I can also administer medication if needed, and I know the cheese trick very well so giving pills is usually quick and stress-free. I recently moved to the area and am currently rebuilding my client base, so I’m very flexible and can often accommodate last-minute bookings. I’m a local college student who is home for the summer, so I have a pretty flexible schedule. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I plan my days around the pets I’m taking care of. On days I have work, I’m still able to stop by before and after, and on my off days I have even more availability for walks, visits, or overnight care. I always make sure to follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and stress-free. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific care instructions you provide. I 100% respect the environment I’m in and the boundaries I’m given. I treat your home like it’s my own and always leave it exactly how I found it, with the exception of a toy or two left out from playtime! My goal is to keep your pets happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

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 pets my entire life and treat everyone like family; I specialize with senior pets and rescues! Your pet will be treated like mine - family! I'm currently working and would love to pet sit for your Pet Pal - either nights, weekends or during holidays - I can provide the utmost care and support for your pet! I prefer to take care of your pet in your home - its best to keep them in their environment and am happy to stay overnight if needed to give them the best experience and care.
About: I’m an attentive and reliable pet lover with 5+ years of experience caring for house pets and farm animals. I enjoy learning each pet’s routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed while you’re away. Spending time with animals has always brought me joy and pets tend to respond really well to that calm and loving energy. I always prioritize safety, follow instructions closely, and keep communication clear. ✅Availability: Saturday & Sunday (flexible hours). Some weekdays can absolutely be discussed for availability. ✅Services: Dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, basic puppy training, and care for cats and small pets. ✅Pets: Small and mid-size dogs, Cats, Hamsters, Geckos, Fish, and many more. (Message for clarification) 🚫 No boarding / pets are not taken into my home. 🚫 No overnight stay ins. Spending time caring for pets is how I choose to spend my free time outside of classes. Being around animals helps me reset and stay present. I’ve found that pets respond really well to that calm energy. It’s therapeutic for me, and it’s comforting for them too, so it ends up being a win for both of us. I follow the pet’s routine and always prioritize safety, comfort and clear communication with the owner. During drop-in visits, I make sure pets have fresh water, meals according to instructions, bathroom breaks, and fun time through play or just calm company. For dog walks, I keep their routine based on the owner’s requests. My priority is safety, paying attention to the dog’s behavior, surroundings, and of course, for them to use the bathroom. I always leave the home exactly as I found it and provide updates so owners feel at ease while they’re away. :)
About: I have been an animal lover ever since I can remember. I grew up around dogs and have had my own dog for the 4 years. Your pets happiness is the utmost importance to me. I will be ensure that your pet is well taken care of and loved. I look forward to giving your pet another home away from home! Other pets in the house are Fish, Turtle and Bearded Dragon. I don’t like to have my pets in crates, they will be able to roam free, if for some reason you need or want you pet to be in a crate please let me know. I’m currently working part time at home so they will always be supervised. At the most 2 hours alone when I have so quick task to do I have a fully fenced yard that provides a safe and secure space for them to run, roam freely, and play without any worries about their safety or boundaries.
“Madison was beyond phenomenal!!! She made me feel at ease every step of the way. Her communication with me was exactly what I needed to make me feel at ease leaving my new rescue kitty in her care. I can not recommend her enough! Will definitely be using her for every trip I have. My cat loved her as well!! She is so kind and caring and took care of my baby like he was her own. If I could give her a million stars I would!!”

About: I have experience with all kinds of animals including dogs, cats, birds, and rabbits! I’ve worked for 5 years in a clinic supporting a veterinary team providing treatment and wellness to all types of animals. In 5 years I learned how to read an animal’s body language and how to engage with all kinds of temperaments. I have previously worked in a kennel where I maintained the health and wellbeing of boarding animals with scheduled feeding, medication, and exercise. I’ve worked with non profits like the United States Humane Society working in a high volume setting providing medical care to numerous dogs and cats while advocating for animal welfare and wellness. I’m available for walks and house visits. I’m also available to provide daily feedings in the early mornings or the evenings 7 days a week if needed. My love and dedication to animals is one of the reasons I pursued this opportunity. I have had numerous experiences working with a variety of animals in different environments which makes me a great candidate to be entrusted with your pet! I’m always aware of my surroundings especially when working with animals in an unknown environment. I ensure your fur babies are safe and secured at all times with me.
“Danielle did a great job! She sent photos at every visit and kept me informed on what was going on every drop in. I would definitely recommend her if you needed someone to watch your pups. We definitely will be using her again .”

About: With over 11 years of professional pet care experience, caring for animals isn't just my job—it's my passion. Throughout my career, I've had the opportunity to work in a variety of roles within the animal care field, giving me a well-rounded understanding of pets and their individual needs. I've worked in several animal shelters in positions ranging from Animal Care Technician, Adoptions Counselor, Customer Service Representative, and even Shelter Manager. I've also worked at multiple doggy daycares, where I started as a Daycare Attendant in the playrooms and worked my way up to Assistant General Manager. In addition, I spent time working as a Veterinary Technician, which gave me valuable hands-on medical experience and strengthened my knowledge of animal health and care. I am also Fear-Free Certified! At home, my life revolves around my fur babies! I currently have six cats and four dogs (two of my dogs live with my mom). One of those pups is an 8-year-old Chiweenie with stranger danger, resource guarding, partial blindness, Cushing's disease, and diabetes, requiring daily insulin injections and consistent medical care. My other family dog is a sweet 10-year-old Basset Hound. Caring for pets with special medical or behavioral needs has given me firsthand experience, patience, and confidence in handling a wide variety of situations. My experience has taught me how to work with pets of all personalities and temperaments—from confident social butterflies to fearful or reactive animals. If your pet experiences stranger danger, I'll gladly schedule multiple meet-and-greets so we can build trust at your pet's pace. My goal is always to create a safe, low-stress, and positive experience for everyone involved. I'm experienced in administering medications, including insulin injections, oral medications, and other routine treatments. I understand how critical it is for pets to receive their medications on time and exactly as directed, and I take that responsibility very seriously. Whether your pet is young, senior, energetic, shy, or has special medical or behavioral needs, you can rest easy knowing they're in experienced, compassionate hands. I hope to hear from you and your fur baby (or babies) soon!🐾 Pet care is currently my full-time job, which means I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate my time to giving your furry family members the care and attention they deserve. Every pet (and every pet parent!) has different needs, and I believe there's no one-size-fits-all approach to pet care. Whether your pet thrives on a strict routine, needs multiple potty breaks, requires medications at specific times, or simply enjoys extra cuddles and playtime, I'm happy to accommodate their individual needs. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel comfortable and confident while you're away. Please let me know what you're looking for in your pet's care, and together we'll create a plan that keeps your furry family member happy, safe, and loved while you're gone. I always treat the home and the fur babies as if it was my own. Everything must be treated with love and respect. Always respect the animals space when they want it as well.
About: When your dog is with me he/she will be treated just like my own. My love for dogs has always been endless and I would love to give back the affection they give to us. There is nothing better than a happy puppy/kitty and that’s exactly how your pup/kitty will be when with me. Any special requests or questions message me. Anything you think I should know just give me a heads up. Can’t wait to spend time with your pup/kitty and help you out whenever you need. I will always have your dogs best interest at hand. Hope to be able to watch your furry friend soon, thank you so much for you time :) -Alexa I currently work part time and have two dogs of my own at home. That being said, I am more than happy to care for your pet in your home and take them on walks! I unfortunately do not offer boarding or day care services in my home at this time, I am sorry for any inconvenience at this time.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Freehold stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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 Freehold 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.

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.
