About: Need a trusted sitter for your furry friends? I bring a lifetime of experience to your doorstep! Growing up in a household with five Shih Tzu-Poodles, I learned early on what it takes to keep pets happy and healthy. I’ve also successfully cared for French Bulldogs and understand their unique breed requirements.I proudly offer loving, attentive care for dogs, cats, and bunnies. From energetic walks, calm stays and specialized feeding routines, I treat every pet as if they were my own. Reach out today to schedule a meet-and-greet! I am available to look after your pup at any time of the day or night. Because I am always around on my pet sitting days, your pet will receive constant attention, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of companionship.To ensure your pup feels right at home, I just ask that you provide a clear description of their daily routine and care needs (feeding schedules, bathroom habits, or special quirks) when booking! I live in an incredibly welcoming, pet-friendly apartment complex surrounded by a safe, quiet neighborhood. My apartment itself is spacious, clean, and has plenty of room for your pup to stretch out, play, or curl up for a nap.Outside, we are blessed with beautiful green spaces and walking paths right at our doorstep, making it easy to go for long, leisurely walks. Because I work from home, your dog will never be left unsupervised. I treat every guest like member of my own family, ensuring a safe, low-stress, and loving environment from drop-off to pick-up.
“Yaqin was great with Fafa! It was too hot outside for a regular walk, so she adjusted the visit and found other ways to keep Fafa active and entertained. She even did some strength exercises with him and gave him plenty of enrichment and attention. I really appreciated how attentive she was and how well she adapted to Fafa’s needs. Would definitely book with her again!”

“Vee did an excellent job taking care of my two cats while I was away for ~4 days. She left detailed check-ins with photos that really put me at ease. I came home to two happy cats that had clearly been well taken care of and loved.”

About: I have a pit bull of my own that I’ve had as a kid. Having him young taught me the responsibility of owning an animal and I was put in charge of a lot of his training and taking care of his basic needs. I have also pet sit for a few different dogs through the years and love any type of dog! Currently I’m in school to become a pilot so other than flying and a few classes I have plenty of time since I also want to be able to focus on my studies. But I am a hard working person who loves to go on long walks and seeing animals. I do have a fenced yard that my dog likes to lay in the grass whenever given the chance but he does go on walks with me as well. I’ve walked dogs of many different sizes and personalities throughout the years.
“Laura was pleasant ,considerate, flexible, and followed directions perfectly. She communicated with me through her drop in and made sure Nova was well cared for ( and got her to poop which is a big deal to us 😂). Would highly recommend!”

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 been surrounded by animals my entire life, and I honestly can’t imagine it any other way! I’ve grown up with dogs and cats and have had my own horse since I was 12. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and over the years, I’ve learned a lot about their care, health, and individual needs through caring for my own horse and pets. I truly love spending time with animals and getting to know their different personalities. Whether your pet wants to play, go for a walk, get some extra cuddles, or just have someone around while you’re away, I’d love to be that person for them! I’m also a Registered Nurse at RWJBarnabas, so I’m responsible, attentive, and comfortable handling situations that require a little extra care. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I work M-F 7:30AM-4PM. Weekends are free, however, during the week if your pet needs to be let out during the day I will not be available unless it is before/after work. I offer walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and pet sitting tailored to your pet’s needs. I’m flexible and happy to work with their routine and personalities!
About: I have 5 years of experience caring for pets and truly enjoy spending time with animals. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, and making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away I have a flexible schedule and currently work part-time, so I can dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I’m available for walks, visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. There is a park right near my apartment, which makes it easy to take your pet for regular walks and outdoor time. I can also stay at your home and care for your pets there upon request
“Andrea is a pet owner’s best friend. Reliable, on time, and genuinely caring for the well being of her furry clientele. She cat-sat for us while my husband and I were traveling, and we were totally delighted with her. Checked in at the appointed times, shared stories and photos of our cat, so we felt confident our kitty was getting the best, most attentive care. The clincher was our cat (affectionately known as the invisible cat to former sitters), actually let Andrea get a peek at her - to me that was the two-paws up of approval! Would recommend Andrea to anyone seeking kind, and conscientious pet care in the future! 🐈🐾”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and am a huge dog lover. As I have yet to get a pup of my own, I’ve been sitting for family, friends, and family friends for more than 5 years, where I mainly housesit. I’ve had experience watching dogs of all ages, from grumpy seniors with medication to lively puppies who need extra clean up time, to anxious Covid babies. I am very detail-oriented as I respect that each dog has their personal routine and want to ensure that not much is disrupted for them when I visit/stay. I understand the importance of keeping in contact with owners (only to the extent that you wish to be contacted) throughout the day. I guarantee that I will take plenty of photos of your pet and will be happy to share them! Note: I am based in LES, NYC for the summer. I work fully remotely, so I'm flexible to working with your pet's schedule when housesitting. I'm available for afternoon walks, or to come to housesit from the evenings usually. I'm also willing to travel to housesit (I've travelled to DC before!), though this would require travel coverage as part of compensation. ***For house sits of 1 week or longer, I ask owners to support in covering my meals. Gift cards or a stocked fridge are very much appreciated! *** I tend to ask clients for a document with their pet's daily routine, and how their behaviours are. I will care for your pets as you would advise to care for them in order to maintain consistency and not confuse them. Afterall, I am the guest in staying in their space should I be housesitting. For walks and drop-ins, I would like to also respect your pet's routine and ensure that they are comfortable and at ease.
About: I have such a big heart for animals and a connection to them with a passion for taking care of any type of animal! I grew up taking in rescues with my family at home. We have rescued a senior yorkie, four kittens, and a deaf kitty. I currently have one 4 year old maltipoo at home and one goldfish! In the past we had fish, guinea pigs, hamsters, bearded dragons, and lizards at home. Throughout the years I love participating in anything involving innocent fur babies. For two years I pet sit my sisters french bulldog with GI issues and my brothers cat. At the same time I was in a P.A.W.S (protecting animals without stability) club in high school. I currently volunteer at two animal shelters since 2022. After high school I pursued an associates degree in Biology while participating in a veterinary assistant program. I graduated the program and continued on to getting my first full time job at a veterinary hospital as an approved veterinary assistant! Therefore, I have knowledge on animal anatomy, sickness and care procedures. I plan to complete my Biology degree while working full time and helping to take care of your fur babies 💗 I am currently in school pursuing a science degree while working part time at a hospital. I pet sit, house sit and dog walk. I am available weekdays and weekends for any help you need with your fur babies. I am very flexible and work around school to continue my passion of animal care. I will make sure to socialize and spend quality time your pets. I will take them on energetic walks and make sure they are fed and comfortable!

About: I am different from other sitters because I care about both pet and caregiver. I know what's it's like to leave a loved one to a stranger so I deeply care about open communication and lots of photos for updates! Due to other commitments from 3-8, I am available M-F at 8 am to 3 pm and then later on from 8 pm to 10 pm. On weekends my schedule is completely open! I make sure the pet is always at eye level to me. Double check everything is secure and where they're supposed to be. I will make sure that nothing dangerous is nearby.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have cared for pets of all kinds, including dogs and other unique pets, and I have always loved learning about animal behavior and what makes each pet special. I grew up caring for my family dog from the time we were both young until she recently passed away at an amazing old age, and that experience taught me patience, responsibility, and how much love animals bring into our lives. I have also helped care for and walk a family friend’s dog since I was younger, and I have always enjoyed spending time with animals of all sizes and personalities. I believe every pet deserves kindness, attention, and care that is tailored to their needs. I love learning about dog body language, training, and positive ways to build trust with animals. My goal is to foster and rescue animals one day, and I would love the opportunity to provide your pets with the same love and care I would give my own. I work a full-time corporate job during the week and enjoy spending my free time caring for animals. My availability is primarily on weekends, making this a great opportunity for me to provide pets with extra attention, companionship, walks, and care when their families need a helping hand. I value creating a flexible schedule that allows me to give each pet the time and attention they deserve, whether it’s a quick visit, a walk, or longer stays. I’m happy to work with each owner’s routine and their pet’s individual needs. I believe every pet has their own personality, needs, and routine, and I always aim to provide care that makes them feel safe and comfortable. With my own dog, I use crate training, enrichment puzzles, and trick practice to keep him happy, confident, and mentally stimulated. I’m happy to follow each owner’s preferences, whether that means crate time, maintaining a specific routine, going for walks, playing, or simply providing lots of love and cuddles on the couch. My goal is to make every pet feel cared for and at home while their family is away.
About: Craft an engaging "About Me" Tell pet owners about the love and care you’ll provide for their pets. Don’t be afraid to brag about your pet care experience, special skills, your personal qualities, and how you will keep their pets happy and safe. What sorts of activities will a dog enjoy on a stay with you? Where will you go on walks? What fun activities will you do together? What would you like to know about a dog before sitting him or her? Do you have any breed preferences? Do you know dog first aid and/or CPR? Yes No Can you administer oral medication to dogs? Yes No Can you administer injected medication to dogs? Yes No Do you have experience taking care of senior dogs? Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy being active and spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent walks, check-ins, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the week. I’m organized, reliable, and attentive to maintaining each pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and secure while in my care. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday visits, or evening care, I make sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and affection they need. In a client’s home, I respect and follow each owner’s routines, feeding schedules, walking preferences, and any special instructions to help pets feel secure and maintain consistency. I am mindful of their behavior, body language, and safety during walks and visits, and I always ensure pets have fresh water, supervision, affection, and a clean environment. I understand how important trust and communication are, so I provide updates, photos, and check-ins to give owners peace of mind while they’re away. My goal is for both pets and owners to feel comfortable, supported, and confident in the care being provided.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Jamesburg
This was my first week returning to work with a new puppy, and I had the puppy blues so badly! Joel made the whole transition so much easier and gave me such peace of mind while I was away at work. He was incredibly responsive, reliable, and so easy to work with. My puppy can be very skittish on walks, but after spending time with Joel, he is already so much more confident! It means so much knowing he is in such good hands when I can’t be there. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better walker/sitter. Thank you so much, Joel, for making this first week back to work so much easier for both of us! I highly recommend him!

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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Jamesburg is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $27 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 5,339 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Jamesburg. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Jamesburg 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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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.

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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
