About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lovers with a deep passion of caring for pets of all kinds. Growing up surrounded by cats, dogs, and plenty of other furry (and not-so-furry) friends taught me how much love and care they deserve. My top priority is always making sure your pets are happy, healthy, and feeling loved. From feeding routines and walks to cuddle time (or just calm company for the more independent types), I make sure each pet feels comfortable and cared for according to their unique personality. I love keeping pets engaged with fun, stimulating activities. For cats, that might mean interactive toys, puzzle feeders, or laser play. For dogs, it’s usually games of fetch, tug-of-war, or a good old-fashioned frisbee toss. Even reptiles get the same thoughtful attention (maybe less cuddling, but plenty of care and respect!). Every pet deserves the best care possible, and that’s what I promise to provide. Whether you’re going away for a day or a week, I will treat your furry family member as if they were our own. I’d love to meet your pets and help you feel at ease while you’re away!
“Lisa Marie was excellent with our two high-energy dogs! She was prompt and a great communicator. She sent lots of pictures of our pups so we could see they were having a great time and gave thorough reports on how the drop-in visits went. Some of the pics she sent were actually frame-worthy!! Thank you for taking such great care of Linkin and Hudson!”
About: I’ve had my own dog for 3 years and care for him daily, including morning and evening walks, feeding, playtime, and giving him lots of attention. I also have experience with young puppies and understand the patience and care they need. I truly love animals and will care for your pet like they are my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I usually start work later in the day, which gives me plenty of time beforehand to dedicate to pet care. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether it’s going on walks, playing, or simply keeping them company. Caring for pets is something I truly enjoy, and I’m happy to make time for it in my daily routine. I will always care for your pet like they are my own and follow their routine to make them feel safe and comfortable. I have my own dog and spend a lot of time with him every day. We go on daily walks, play a lot, and I make sure he gets plenty of attention and care
“Abigail is absolutely wonderful!! She’s patient and calm with my dog who is wary of strangers. She has been incredibly flexible with my schedule and is very reliable. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of multiple sizes for friends and family for the past 15 years, and have a nice dog of my own for almost as long. I’m a high school teacher who is not working this summer. I’m looking to meet some awesome dogs in between taking my kids to camp, and snuggling with my own doggy. I will be diligent in following whatever rules you lay out for your pet. I know how precious your pet is, and will care for it like my own. Dogs will only go outside while on a leash, and I will provide pictures as well as a detailed report of our activities.
About: Hi! My name is Veronica, and I’m a graduate student, athlete, and huge animal lover with experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m very active and love being outside, so dog walking and playtime are something I genuinely enjoy. Whether your dog loves long walks, needs extra patience, or just wants company during the day, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I understand how important trust and communication are when someone else is caring for your pet, so I always try to be dependable, responsive, and attentive to each dog’s routine and needs. I also send photo updates during visits so you can feel relaxed knowing your pet is doing well. I’m comfortable with energetic dogs, shy dogs, puppies, and senior pets. I’d love the opportunity to meet your dog and help make your day a little easier! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I love being able to dedicate time to it each day. I have classes in the mornings and early afternoons, so I’m available for walks and drop-in visits in the after 3 PM on Mondays, between 1 PM and 6 PM on Tuesdays, and later in the day on Fridays, after 3 PM. I’m also flexible on other days depending on your pet’s needs! I’m great at sticking to routines, so whether your pet needs a midday walk, evening visit, or consistent check-ins, I’ll make sure they get the attention, care, and exercise they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I make sure to follow your instructions closely so your pet can stay in their familiar routine and environment. I take the time to build trust with each pet, paying attention to their behavior, energy level, and individual needs. I always ensure doors, gates, and leashes are secure during walks and visits, and I’m mindful of surroundings to keep your pet safe at all times. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident and at ease knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
About: I offer thoughtful, in-home pet care designed for comfort, safety, and peace of mind—especially during holidays and extended stays. I welcome no more than 4 dogs at a time, ensuring each pet receives individualized attention in a calm, structured environment. Pets are never left alone, and I carefully separate them by size and temperament. Cats enjoy their own private, quiet space, completely separate from dogs. I have experience caring for rescue dogs and cats, senior pets, and pets who may need extra patience and reassurance while their families are away. During holidays and long stays, I focus on keeping routines consistent so pets feel secure and at home. Neighborhood walks and medication administration are included at no additional charge, and I provide plenty of love, supervision, and one-on-one time. For safety and handling considerations, a $25 additional fee applies to dogs over 100 lbs. Pet care is a family-supported service, and I work closely with my daughter Alexny, allowing for constant supervision, attentive care, and a warm, home-like environment where your pet is treated like family—even while you’re away. Pet care is part of my daily routine, not something I fit in between other commitments. Because I care for pets from my home, I am able to provide consistent supervision, regular walks, timely meals, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. I plan my schedule around the pets in my care and follow their individual routines closely. With the support of my daughter Alexny, pets are never left alone, and care remains steady and attentive during weekdays, weekends, and holidays. This allows me to offer a calm, structured, and reliable environment where pets feel safe and cared for at all times. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and emotional well-being are always my top priorities. I provide care in a calm, clean, and structured home environment, and pets are never left alone. I limit the number of pets I care for so each one receives close supervision and individualized attention. For outdoor time, I offer a large enclosed deck and a spacious backyard where one side is fenced and the other is secured with a portable fence to ensure dogs are safely protected at all times. Outdoor play is always closely supervised. I can also crate your dog if needed, always following your preferences. Pets are thoughtfully separated by size and temperament, and cats have their own quiet, dedicated space, completely separate from dogs. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including meals, walks, medications, and rest, to help them feel secure and at ease. I have experience with rescue pets, senior pets, and pets who need extra patience and reassurance, and I use gentle, positive handling at all times. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where pets feel at home and pet parents have complete peace of mind.
About: I love dogs and have always grown up with them. My first dog was a St. Bernard/Lab mix and I currently have two spoiled Havanese pups that are brothers. I am reliable, believe in clear communication and provide frequent updates to ensure that owners are comfortable knowing their pets are safe and happy while they’re away! I’m in school part-time and work per diem so I’m pretty flexible with my time. Let me know what works for you and your pet(s) and I’m sure we can figure something out! I treat every dog that I look after as if they were my own. I’ll make sure to build trust and give them all the extra love, cuddles, and attention while you’re away!
About: I can care for dogs weighing 40 pounds or less and that are vaccinated. Please also let me know their specific needs, such as their food preferences, any allergies they may have, and their preferred walk time. I am stay at home mom so have flexible schedule. I can walk them every 2 to 4 hours if required. I have adult kids who are sometimes home so will have lots of help. I have single family home no yard. Dogs are allowed on furniture and have freindly dog to play with. Pets are treated and loved as family at our home.
“Yasmine was very attentive of my very shy cat, engaging her to play at her own pace. Yasmine provided clear communication to me which I really appreciated!”
“Elizabeth was great with my cat, Lawrence! I was flexible with the timing of her drop-in visits, and she was very communicative with exactly when she would be here. She sent lots of photos and spent plenty of time with Lawrence. I would definitely hire Elizabeth again!”
“Sara is just the best. This was our first time using rover with our puppy and we were completely at ease knowing Sara was providing the best care for our pup. She gave updates and sent pictures, which we loved. We also do a lot of obedience training with our pup and Sara has experience with prong collars which was a huge plus for us!”
“Michael was an amazing cat sitter to our 3 indoor boys and took care of our 1 feral lady outside! He was there everyday we were gone at the boys “dinner time” without fail! I received adorable photos of the belly rubs and even my shy guy came out for treats! That’s a testament to the animal person Michael is! When we returned home from our vacation the house was exactly how we left it and the boys had plenty of food and water. Their boxes were clean and the area was tidy. We will absolutely be using Michael’s services again!”
About: ⚠If you're new to Rover use my Promo code "XAVIEM67281" to get a 💲20 discount off the first service you use with me. ⚠ I have been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember. 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.

“Ana is so amazing. Our little dog Carmela loves her. Ana is the only sitter who can get Carmela to bring her ball to play with her. Ana also got our mail which was so nice of her. We love how well Ana takes care of everything so we don’t have to worry when we are away”
“Jennifer is super attentive to my cats. She made sure the kitties are well fed and cared for. She was committed to checking in on the cats even during terrible weather conditions. Would recommend her and book again!”
About: I have a dog of my own, I’ve been taking care of him for 2 years and making sure to walk him everyday. I am a trusted dog walker I work from home and whenever I have time I love walking my dog out and neighbors dogs for an hour or two. Love dogs I do not have a fenced in yard but I have a leash I take them out with when they need to go to the bathroom
“Lizbeth was great with my boy while I was gone! She was super accommodating with both of our schedules and I was able to book with her within short notice as well. She gave updates and was very responsive if I had any questions or other requests! Milo had a buddy for the weekend while I was gone, and I’d definitely book with her again! Thanks Lizbeth 😽🐾”
“Kellie is great. We were nervous to leave our anxious yorkiepoo for the weekend, but Kellie was very understanding and patient with her. She provided a handful of photos each drop-in visit and very thorough summaries. She was also flexible with us requesting additional visits only a few days in advance. We would absolutely book Kellie again!!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Helmetta
We used Lenny to take care of DJ over the Fourth of July, and we truly could not have asked for better care. During a thunderstorm, the power went out, and Lenny went above and beyond by bringing DJ a fan and a lantern so he wouldn’t be hot or left in the dark. Lenny was also looking out for us in every way possible. Our Jeep was parked under a tree that looked like it might fall during the storm, and she immediately called us to ask if we wanted her to move it to a safer spot. Knowing that someone cared for both DJ and our home as if they were her own gave us complete peace of mind. Lenny is reliable, thoughtful, and incredibly compassionate. DJ loves her, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will go the extra mile for their pets.
I had such a great experience! They came by to take care of my boy Toby—gave him a potty break, fed him dinner, and spent some quality time with him—and I couldn’t have felt more at ease. From the moment I met them, I could tell they were kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely great with dogs. Toby absolutely loved them right away, which says a lot. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. They were reliable, communicative, and clearly knew what they were doing. I would 100% book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and caring sitters!

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 Helmetta 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 Helmetta 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 .

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 Helmetta 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.
