“Eva is amazing and takes careful care in meeting you and your dogs needs on her visits. I had her look after the dogs off and on for 3 days and she was on time and took care of them with ease. Very communicative and responsive. Highly recommend!”

“Kam did the job as requested keeping my kitties sane and fed in their family's absence. It was a great help because our regular sitter was unexpectedly unavailable and I had only a matter of hours to secure a new sitter. They were responsive and made themselves available to us on very short notice. I greatly appreciated that-- then I could go on our family vacation with our worries.”

“Elizabeth always gives my dogs lots of love and playtime when she does her drop in visits. One of my dogs is more anxious and Elizabeth handles it well. My dogs are German Shepherds and full of energy, she gets them plenty of playtime to release some of that energy so they aren't too crazy when I get home from work, which is a great help.”

About: I grew up with cats and now have a one-year-old Boxer, so I’m familiar with both feline personalities and energetic pups! My experience includes feeding, litter box care, walks, and plenty of playtime. I’ll give your pets attentive care and follow their routines to help them feel comfortable while you’re away. I work night shifts three days a week, which gives me flexibility for walks and drop-in visits on my days off. I keep my availability updated and schedule visits around work and rest so your pets receive my full attention. For walks and drop-in visits, I’ll follow your pet’s routine and care instructions closely. I’ll check that leashes and harnesses are secure, keep doors and gates closed, and make sure fresh water is available. I’ll respect your home, give your pet time to feel comfortable with me, and share photo updates so you know how they’re doing.

About: I have had a cat for the past 11 years (since I was in 3rd grade) and grew up helping take care of him. I also have helped my sister take care of her dog a little bit over the past year and have grown up around dogs. I’m currently working a part time job, so some mornings I will only be able to stop by quickly and check on them in the morning but spend more time with them at night, and other days i’ll be able to spend more time with them in the morning and only stop by quickly at night (around 10:30 at night). My cat is indoor and has full reign of the house so boarding at my house is not available. However, I can stop by your house and check in your pet as needed and will follow whatever guidelines you have! I will also be sure to give your pet plenty of love!

About: I’ve walked my relatives dogs for a a year until they moved away! 🥺❤️ I’m always looking out for the furballs in every way to make them comfortable. I’m currently a part time working college student, I’m available on Tuesdays only for now until my schedule changes T^T but I’m good with pets! Unfortunately I will not be taking boardings because I do not have the experience bringing them over to my own home, but I’ve had experiences in other friends’s homes. I give them a lot of attention.

About: There has never been a time in my life that I can’t remember not having a dog, I have owned many breeds, from a 2lb Pomeranian to a Great Pyrenees, from puppies to seniors I enjoy them all. Hi there! I took a short break from Rover for a few months, but I’m excited to be back and accepting bookings again. I’m now home full-time, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family member! I have a fenced backyard and three dogs to help keep your dog company. We have a built in doggie door so your dog will be able to go in and out as they want to, should they choose to use it.

“Kayla has been terrific with our Rocky. He just loves her! She recently stayed at our home for a week and while caring for our pup, she was respectful of our home and belongings. She also communicates well and is prompt with responses. We love the pictures she sent each day so we knew Rocky was being well-cared for and having a good time.”

About: Ive worked in the vet field as an assistant and receptionist for over 20 years now. I have a soft spot for senior dogs and have experience medicating. I work side by side with trainers so I am very comfortable and knowledgeable on behavior as well. I do work full time, if needed I can do potty breaks on my lunch break however some of my shifts are short only 5 to 6 hour days. I work 1 Saturday per month but only until noon. I have lots of time in between my full time job. I have a large fenced in yard ans crates if needed. I have 5 small senior dogs that ignore eachother and get along well/ignore other friendly dogs. I live in a small ranch size home so there are no stairs, other then to walk out the back door. Im home unless im working, spending time with my own babies. No children, just me and my husband who is also a dog lover.

About: What sets me apart is that I bring more than basic pet-sitting experience to the table. I have real hands-on experience with dogs of all kinds, including puppies, higher-drive dogs, and dogs that do best with structure, consistency, and confident handling. I pay attention to the individual dog in front of me and believe good care is not one-size-fits-all. Some dogs need a quiet, steady environment. Some need routine and clear boundaries to feel settled. My goal is to make their stay safe, smooth, and well managed while giving owners real peace of mind. For longer stays, select a la carte training may also be available for pet parents who want to add a little more value to their dog’s time with me. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because dogs are already a big part of my life. Dogs staying with me are not an afterthought or just added into the background of my day. I build my schedule in a way that allows me to be attentive, consistent, and intentional about the care they receive. My goal is for dogs in my care to be well looked after, well handled, and part of a structured daily rhythm that helps them feel settled, safe and secure. So YOU can have a breath of fresh air during you travels. I also value clear communication and reliability. I can be flexible with Drop-off and pick-up times but unless communicated (and agreed) at the time of booking I do expect to follow the agreed upon appointment prior to booking so everything stays smooth, respectful, and well managed for both the dogs and the people involved. Nobody can prevent the unexpected, I just ask that you keep in communication because I do run my wife to and from doctor appointments and sometimes I take the dogs out on adventures. Safety, trust, and thoughtful management matter a lot in my home and in the way I care for dogs. I have a fenced backyard, my own dogs, and a setup built around keeping dogs safe, comfortable, and well managed. My family also have our own dogs, including Belgian Malinois and a Border Collie. Because every dog is different, I do not automatically allow dogs to mix or play together, especially when I am meeting a dog for the first time. Unless dogs come in together as part of the same family, they are typically kept separate from other client dogs and from my personal dogs for safety reasons. My goal is to avoid unnecessary risk and give each dog a calm, well-managed stay. If an owner strongly wants their dog to have playtime with another dog, that would only happen carefully, with a dog I know well, that I believe is an appropriate match, and with close supervision at all times. Safety comes first. I would rather be cautious than make a preventable mistake and have to tell an owner their dog was injured. Dogs are also fed separately in a secure, peaceful environment so they can eat and rest without pressure, competition, or stress. I keep numbers limited and generally do not take more than five dogs at a time, and there are times when there are no visiting dogs at all besides my own. Depending on the timing, some dogs may have a very quiet stay with plenty of space and individual attention. Dogs are allowed on furniture in my home, but I respect the owner’s rules. If your dog is not allowed on furniture at home and you want that maintained during their stay, I will honor that. I believe consistency matters. For drop-in visits, care is provided in the client’s home and can include feeding, fresh water, medication, potty breaks, playtime, cleanup of any messes made during the visit, bringing in mail, and watering plants. Waste pickup from that day’s visit is included, and extra yard cleanup can be added for an additional fee if needed. Structured walks may also be available. Because of my training background, walks and drop-ins can offer more than basic supervision when appropriate, with added structure and useful handling built into the visit.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I’ve been able to walk. Grew up with a Boxer, Pitbull & a kitty. My mom and I opened our home to fostering during Covid. Taken in eight puppies at once while also potty training and teaching sit command. I can also train for walks!! Took care of my senior dog that had heart, thyroid and skin issues so I am experienced in administering medications when needed, syringe or oral. I also am experienced in taking care of dogs with special needs, including dogs that may use a wheelchair. The one to call when family and friends need a sitter because of my reliability, flexibility, and amount of love their pets receive in my care. Our house is the play house and we don’t care about messes or how unruly your children(doggos) are. I also have experience in taking care of chickens and I make homemade all natural dog treats!! Right now I work part time to pay for school 4-5 days a week, only 20-25 hours and normally in the morning. I also have a more flexible side job that only schedules when they need me and it can be 2-3 days a week usually in the evenings. For that side job I can also choose to not work for the week if I am watching your fur baby. I enjoy staying busy, but I love taking care of animals more and would much rather spend the day with your pup! I am also a full time college student but my work is online, so I am mainly at the house if I’m not at work. While your doggo is in my care, my top priority will be tending to their needs and pampering them as if this was their own little vacation. I can even bring out the pool! After I get off your pup has all my time and the day is full of their favorite activities. I will even wake up earlier to give them a walk before I leave if need be. Let me know your fur babies schedule and I will accommodate. If I am watching your pup/pups at your place then it’ll still be the same concept, just letting me know how I can best adhere to their schedule. My daily life includes work, online school and reading.. so I will always be there for them. :) I take care of your pups as if they were my own. Big fenced in backyard with room to roam and play safely, they are not restricted to areas and are allowed on all furniture including my bed if that’s what makes them most comfortable. I adapt to your pets needs, whether they follow a strict schedule day to day or just need someone to let them be their crazy selves I can adhere to all and any requests. I can even offer a pool in the summer if your pup loves the water!! If I am watching your pups at your place, I will follow their schedule strictly if you’d like, or if you want them to have their own little vacation I don’t mind doing whatever it is you’d like me to do to make sure their needs are met and they are happy. We can have fun doing any of their little hobbies they like, just let me know if you have a fenced in backyard, or if they go potty from walks and anything I need to watch out for on walks.

About: Personally have had 2 animals of my own and have taken care of others in the past. Animals have always bee n a passion of mine! I am very flexible. I work Monday-Friday from 9-3. Short days which would give me plenty of time to spend with your furry friend! I will have plenty of time to make sure they get all of their energy out! I make sure the pets are given all of the love and support they are needed to be happy in an unfamiliar environment. If they have a routine that you would like them to stick to I will do my best to make sure we continue to follow that routine!

About: From a young age, I have had the privilege of helping care for dogs of all sizes and breeds. Most of my adult experience with dogs is with senior dogs, cancer-related care, and post-surgery recovery care. My senior dog is my family, and I treat any animal in my care with the same love and attention to detail I do as my own dog. I also have 2 years experience with bearded dragons and am open to other types of pets as well! I currently work full time M-F and typically have availability for drop ins and walks after 6pm on weekdays. Weekends that are planned ahead of time provide even more flexibility for me, as I can usually make any time of day work Saturdays or Sundays to give your pet what they need! I treat client’s homes with care and respect. I follow household rules and pet care instructions closely. I am highly responsive and strive to provide clients with the communication needed for everyone to feel safe and secure during bookings.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Jersey

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 2,636 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:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
