Lauren is great! We had a mixup on the first morning time but she honestly apologized. She came each time requested other than that morning and was awesome with my 3 dogs. My dogs are not the easiest to take care of (I have a 17 year old blind one who wears diapers) but Lauren was a champ and cleaned up messes. I will use her again for my next trip.

Emily helped us in the past with house-sitting, and for this booking, she came over for multiple walks and drop-ins over the weekend while we were out of town. We greatly appreciated the clear communication, consistency, and updates with pictures. It was a relief to know that Zeus was well cared for while we were away. I know Zeus cannot wait for another visit with her soon.

Rebecca cared for our three cats for about a week and a half, doing drop ins every other day. She was kind and communicative from start to finish, and went above and beyond to keep us and our kitties happy including lots of playtime, topping off food and water, and even watering a plant for us and bringing packages inside. Would book her again for future travel!

Hana is amazing! She’s so flexible and understanding when it comes to schedules and demands of each animal in the home. She truly cares about our animals (she will leave our tv on for our dog so she isn’t lonely) and does enrichment treats without us even asking her to. I trust her with our babies 100%

About: Animals have been a massive part of my life for as long as I can remember, and growing up in a household with both dogs and cats taught me how to read their unique body language and personalities. Today, I am a proud pet parent to two wonderful cats of my own, so I know firsthand just how much your pets mean to you and the level of care they deserve. I have hands-on experience handling pets of all shapes, sizes, and ages, which includes raising a family dog from a puppy and training him to sit, as well as managing and pet-sitting two energetic 80-pound dogs simultaneously. I am also entirely comfortable with the less glamorous sides of pet care, as I am highly experienced in administering oral pills and various medications to both cats and dogs, maintaining strict routines, and handling unexpected bathroom accidents or cleanups calmly and thoroughly. I work full-time Monday through Friday, making my daytime availability perfect for early morning or evening walks, check-ins, and feeding routines. I am also available for overnight housesitting during the week, though this is typically best suited for independent adult animals who are comfortable being alone during standard work hours. My weekends are completely open and flexible for overnight care, extended daytime sitting, and drop-ins. Because young puppies require constant, round-the-clock supervision and undivided attention, I only accept puppy-sitting bookings strictly on Saturdays and Sundays to ensure your little one gets the dedicated care they need. Building a foundation of trust is my top priority when entering your home to care for your pets. For dogs, this means maintaining strict leash safety during walks, keeping a watchful eye for hazards, and following their established feeding and bathroom routines to minimize any anxiety. For cats, I prioritize a calm, respectful environment, giving them the space they need to feel secure while ensuring litter boxes are pristine and food is fresh. I treat your home with the utmost respect—keeping it clean, locking up securely, and handling unexpected messes or accidents quickly and thoroughly. Whether keeping a energetic dog safe on a walk or administering medication to a sensitive cat, I am committed to providing a secure, stress-free environment so you can have total peace of mind while you are away.

About: I have been professionally pet sitting for over 12 years and I have had pets my entire life, cats and dogs included. I am comfortable with all shapes, sizes and breeds. I owned a pet sitting business in New Jersey for 10 years and had loyal clients for many years who have given me great reviews and trust me completely with their fur babies. I do dog walking and pet sitting in your home. I am the proud fur mom of a crazy pug named Charlie and a special needs cat named Izzy both of whom I adore. I have taken CPR and first aid for pets training. I will treat your pets like my own and give you a worry free experience. I am available evenings and late night Monday to Thursday and Weekends any time. Holidays are ok too! I will always ensure your pets safety and care for them like my own. I will not let your pet out without a leash or a fenced in yard. I will not hesitate to get vet care for your pet if needed. I can do it in my free time. Nights and weekends. Holidays are okay as well. I can do short notice if needed just ask. Will not let out without leash or fence. Make sure home is secure and safe. Pay attention to pets behavior, appearance and overall state of being.

Danielle is our go to girl! We have loved everything she does for Leo and we always looking forward to having her watch Leo while we are away. When we know we are going away, I look for her immediately. She sends the best pictures and always takes her time with the dog she's watching.

If you pass by Lauren for watching your fur babies, you are missing out. Not only does she take care of them, she’s extremely communicative and goes above and beyond. We had her do drop ins for our two when we were out of town and my male cat likes to be destructive no matter what we do(literally nicknamed him CODAD- iykyk). Lauren was willing to cleanup after all the messes he made!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Hopewell

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Hopewell on Rover is $14.43 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 2,501 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hopewell. 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 Hopewell 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 Hopewell. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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.
