About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life. From pet sitting for friends and family members to just stopping by for food and playtime. Your pets regardless of age are in great hands. I am currently working part time so I have Thursdays, Fridays, and some weekends available to play with and cater to your sweet fur babies! I have worked with pets of all different sizes and personalities. I know what signs to look for and how to safely monitor play and social environments.
“Kira did a great job taking care of our three babies. Our doggies are very skeptical of allowing people they don’t know in their space…especially Bella, but Kira managed to get them to trust her. We were very excited to enjoy our vacation in peace knowing that they were in good hands.”
“Mateo was so wonderful with our dogs! He handled all 4 like a pro, even the little one that is blind and requires insulin injections after each meal. We will definitely be calling him back for all our petsitting needs!”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, ducks, geese, chickens, and roosters. I currently care for backyard animals for a regular client, so I’m very familiar with feeding routines, cleaning, and making sure everything stays safe and secure. Pet sitting is my full-time job, allowing me to be fully available and attentive for every booking. My partner Brayden is also on my profile and comes with me to bookings. He has over 10 years of experience working with horses and farm animals, including owning his own horse. Together, we’re confident handling multiple animals and assisting with farm routines and basic horse care such as feeding and turnout. We always follow instructions closely to keep your animals safe, happy, and on their normal routine. I provide full-time, professional pet and farm animal care with a flexible schedule throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and overnight stays. Because this is my primary job, I am able to give each booking my full attention and maintain consistent, high-quality care. I have experience with dogs, cats, and a variety of farm animals including chickens, ducks, geese, roosters, and horses, and I tailor my care to each animal’s routine and comfort level. I provide attentive, reliable care with a strong focus on safety, consistency, and trust. I carefully follow all instructions for each pet’s routine, including feeding, handling, and any special needs. I maintain a calm, clean, and respectful environment in every home I care for. I also believe in clear communication and provide regular updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away!
About: Hello, my name is Kendra! Here’s a bit about me! I have always loved animals. Growing up my grandparents had a cattle farm and I would spend summers there helping with the chickens, dogs, and cats. I have helped train dogs including my own. My dog Eevee is a Shiba Inu who was born during the pandemic. I learned how to train my dog with positive reinforcement only training and believe it’s the best way to create trust. My parents also had me help with our dog an American Eskimo who lived to be 16. Our cat who was a mutt but we adored lived to be 21 years old. We also had two ferrets that were amazing and lived for 5 and 6 years. Caring for pets in the best way insures they live long happy lives. I have helped many people with their dog training even though I’m not a trainer. Consistency, makes it easiest for the dog to understand. I want to know all your pets habits and corky behaviors. Tell me their schedule and how you do things with them to keep them happy! It’s ok if they aren’t perfect cause none of us are! If there is a behavior you’re working with them on I’m all ears and happy to help support you. I love walking dogs! However, it can be difficult for some dogs with all the distractions of the world. Also depending on the time of year, time of day, and weather we may not be able to walk every visit. Some dogs don’t have the stamina for a 30 min walk. That’s ok if we need to play with their toys in the house or backyard as well! A great play session helps tire them out so when you come home they have burned some energy already. We could also play with puzzles that I have to get their mind engaged! Mental stimulation can sometimes be even more exciting for dogs! For cats we all know they have a mind of their own which makes me so happy! If you’re out of town or you work long of hours and need me to feed your furry family member I’m your gal! I especially love cats! I find them to be adorably entertaining and know they don’t like dirty littler boxes or water. I’m happy to help support your cats while you’re away! Let me know their likes and dislikes and if they have a favorite toy! Maybe they just need food, water and a clean litter box. If you have a snuggler that loves people I will be their temporary family. Reach out anytime for your walking and drop in visit needs! I am very responsible and will treat you, your home, and pets with the upmost respect. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I provide walks for dogs and drop in visits for both cats and dogs. Tell me your routine and I’ll follow it. My schedule is very flexible and pet care is what I mainly do for work. My other job I travel for once a month and have that blocked off on my calendar. I keep my calendar very organized and up to date. I only care for others pets in their own homes. I will clean up after your pet if there are any messes and ensure your home is safe and secure when I leave. I will always make sure they are fed, have water, and are happy. Safety is huge for me! If it’s hot outside we can’t walk because we don’t want burnt paws. Which is why puzzles, bubbles, and other fun activities work so well. Animals love routine and structure. Which is important for me to learn from you about your pets. I have a silly personality so I’ll definitely speak sweet and silly to your pets.
“Preston is awesome. I’m so lucky I found Preston to take care of our three dogs and four cats. My German Shepherd requires special attention with IBD medication and prescription foods. I don’t have to worry with Preston handling everything! I highly recommend Preston and trust him 100%.”
“Amanda took the time to get to know our senior cat and make her as comfortable as possible when administering her meds. We appreciate Amanda's respect for our special girl and all the patience and care she provided! She was also flexible with some last minute travel plan changes due to the weather.”

About: Caring for dogs has been a huge part of my everyday life. I have three dogs of my own, so I’m very familiar with daily routines like walking, feeding, playtime, and giving dogs the attention and patience they need. I’ve also dog-sat for family members, which has helped me become comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels. What sets me apart is how much I truly love dogs — I treat every dog like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means a calm walk, playtime, or just keeping them company. My weekly routine is always the same and includes a lot of availability for me to fit pet sitting/walking into my schedule. I prioritize my time with pets!! When caring for pets in their own homes, I make it a priority to keep their routine and environment as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, respect your space, and make sure your pet feels safe, calm, and well cared for. I take my time during visits, give plenty of attention and affection, and always treat both your home and your pet with care and respect.
About: As a devoted pet owner, I share my life with two amazing dogs: a sweet senior pup named Cookie, who is 12 years old and has a calm, gentle spirit, and a playful, energetic puppy named Roscoe, my lively puppy who keeps me on my toes with his boundless energy. Together, they’ve taught me so much about patience, playfulness, and unconditional love—and they’re my inspiration for becoming a trusted dog walker and sitter. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I make sure to wake up early to give my dogs their morning walk and some playtime. Throughout the day, I set aside breaks for feeding, training, and cuddles. By the evening, we have a wind-down routine—more gentle walks and lots of bonding time—so they fit in seamlessly with my schedule. At home, I care for my pets by making sure they have a structured routine. I provide them with regular meals, fresh water, and daily exercise. It’s all about balance, ensuring they feel loved, safe, and stimulated every day.
“Tara did great with my dogs! They can take awhile to warm up normally but seemed very comfortable and happy with her. She's really responsive and was able to take care of our needs without any problems.”

I care for my client’s pets by feeding, playing with, walking/running/exercising with pets and making sure they have everything the need. Overall it’s a fun time with all furry friends while also maintaining proper care and abiding by any requests that clients have provided.
About: As a proud owner of three Golden Retrievers (ages 3 to 10), I understand the level of trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else.

My experience ranges from puppies to senior dogs, and includes hands-on work at a boarding facility and volunteering at an animal shelter. As a full-time student, I have the flexibility to be fully present and attentive. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and your pet a safe, loving, and comfortable experience.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Jersey
Rebekah was a great Cat sitter. I was able to find her after my scheduled sitter fell through at the last minute. My nervous cat didn’t take long to come out and enjoy her care. I was so nervous to leave Topaz alone for the first Time. But Rebekah provided a worn tee shirt for my Cat to snuggle up to before she arrived to get her scent. Expertise does matter! Thank you Rebekah for taking such wonderful care of Topaz. I wouldn’t think twice about making future bookings with you. 😊

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Jersey is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $22 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 4,663 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Jersey. 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.
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 Jersey. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 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.
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.
