“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!”
“My dog Avery met Mary Jo for the first time today. You would have thought they were old friends since he was so excited to see her! He didn't hesitate going for a walk with her...and probably would have gone home with her if I let him! I am thrilled to know there is someone who I can trust to take care of him when I need help. Avery definitely has a new BFF.”
“Pam has been absolutely wonderful with our pugs, Walter and Arthur! The communication was prompt and friendly, with fun updates and cute photos that brightens our day. It's such a relief knowing our boys are in good hands. Highly recommend Pam to any pet parent looking for reliable, loving care!”
About: I am a father of 2 & 4-legged kids and the go-to dogsitter for friends and family. I am reliable and my schedule is flexible. I am the primary caregiver of my son when he's not in school. The rest of my schedule is flexible around my honey do lists. Having been a dog owner for more than 10 years, I am skilled in head scritches and belly rubs, and am not scared of slobbery kisses or getting dog hair on my clothes.
About: I currently have a mini bernadoodle named Piper. She is two years old and I have had her since she was 10 weeks old. What sets me apart is that I love her as much as my children and she has a piece of my heart. I make sure she is safe and happy every single day. I currently working fulltime but I am able to pet care weekdays, weekend mornings and evenings. I am flexible so if there is a day of the week and time you prefer feel free to ask and if I can make it work, I will be there. I am in the process of moving, so I can not have pets in my home after June 2026 but at someone else's home, your pet is my priority. I will make sure they are fed, exercised and loved.
“Georgette was such a pleasure and professional. She’s very communicative, was punctual, and great with updates including photos. We 100% recommend her and will 100% schedule her EVERY time we’re out of town!”
About: I've taken care of dogs since high school, had my own 3 dogs at once from puppyhood through senior. I have volunteered at an animal shelter for 10 years and can handle small to large dogs. I'm highly reliable, kind and friendly to all animals and will walk your dog with care. I want you to feel good knowing your dog is taken care of. I work a full time job and volunteer on the weekends, but am available to drop in for potty breaks or feedings in the early evenings during the week. I do not have a yard, however, I can certainly drop in your home to feed, walk, clean up and hang out and spend time with them.
“Rafaela was amazing from start to finish! She kept great communication, sent me pictures for peace of mind, and followed all the instructions perfectly. I truly appreciated her care and would happily book her again.”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was 10 years old and have had several different types of pets ranging from dogs, cats, fish, bearded dragons, rabbits, and turtles. I am a teacher during the school year and I am looking to use my summer free time by providing you with ease and peace of mind when it comes to your pet! I have a fenced in yard, plenty of food, treats, toys and beds for my own dog. I ensure daily meals are met, medications are taken, and exercise is completed!
About: I’ve grown up with dogs since i was 8. I currently have 2 dogs in my household. I just got my puppy this year. She’s a bit challenging and stubborn so i have a lot of patience. I go on walks almost everyday with her almost for an hour at the park. I do work part-time. I work very early on Wednesday and Friday but always have time to the job. I can assure your pet will be healthy and happy. I can play with your pet and always make sure they are fed by their feeding schedule. When they need to go outside it’s no problem.
“Boryana did a great job looking after my cat (Spike) while I was away! She stopped in daily to take of him. She’s reliable, responsible, trustworthy & a great communicator. She loves animals and she treated Spike like her own. I highly recommend her to take care of your pets while you are away!”
“Janine was absolutely professional and efficient during her 8 days of care of my cat. She fed, played, and cleaned up after Graceson. I would recommend Janine in a heartbeat and will look to rebook if I need any future drop-ins!”
“Jenna was amazing with our puppy! She was on time and immediately bonded with her. My daughter was worried about leaving the puppy with someone new, but felt so much better after meeting and talking to Jenna! Strongly recommend!”
“Danielle was great! She came each morning to feed our cat and give him fresh water. She also scooped his litter and sent a picture each day. Danielle also let us know it was chilly in the house and we needed to raise the heat. We are so grateful that Tuck received such great care. Highly recommend Danielle!”
“Bridget was great with both our dogs, and they instantly felt comfortable with her! She was even great with cleaning up an accident one of them had before she made it over. Definitely will use Bridget again!”
“Stacey is fantastic with cats and I was comfortable from the start leaving my cats in her expert care. She is experienced with medication which was so important for my one cat who has started taking several medications. She sent daily photos and let me know how they were doing during each visit.”
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!
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats for years and truly enjoy spending time with animals. I understand the importance of patience, safety, and consistency when caring for pets. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I’m responsible, dependable, and will treat every pet like they’re my own. I work full-time, but I’m available for cat visits before or after work and on most weekends. I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible and will always communicate clearly about my availability. I understand how important consistency is for cats and will make sure they receive reliable care and attention. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your care instructions, including feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box cleaning, walk, medication (if needed), and playtime. I always respect your home, keep everything clean and secure, and provide updates with photos so you can feel confident that your cat is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

Pet 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.
Alexandra was great! My girl is anxious around new people, but she's a needy velcro kitty, so I try to arrange an hour for visits to give her cuddles and llay time. Alexandra stayed and took the time to help put my girl at ease and gave her lots of cuddles. I will definitely be booking with her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Helmetta on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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 .
As of July 2026, there are 6,356 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Helmetta. 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 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.
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 Helmetta. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
