About: I am a college student and have experience with little and big dogs. I have been a pet owner for a majority of my life. I have watched dogs for my friends, family members, and neighbors, while they are away for a short period or extended time periods . I have assisted owners with potty training and continue with the same commands and rules of their home with their fur baby. I am very trust worthy and responsible. I love all dogs and have the knowledge to take care of your babies while you are away. I have 2 fur babies of my own at home so I spend a lot of time in my daily life with them. All of my friends, family, and neighbors have dogs so I am constantly around or taking care of them. I have a fenced in yard and two pups of my own. I also have a crate easily accessible if need be. I have lots of doggy toys. I prefer not to have other dogs at my house since I do have a puppy and another very old dog. I maintain a clean dog safe environment to ensure the safety of all pups and avoid situations.

“Sarah was very sweet with our girl. She was patient while she was scared and used all the tricks we told her to get her to warm up. She gave her a good amount of exercise and play time that I'm sure she snozzed the rest of her day away. Sarah sent us plenty of photos and updates while we were away bringing us great comfort that she was doing well”

About: I have been taking care of animals (cats, dogs, fish etc) my entire life. Not only my own but others as well. I pet sit and walk dogs quite frequently in the past. I also take care of my Grandmother and will go over and look after her pup as well. I am well experienced with both puppies and senior dogs. I mostly work on weekends (mornings on Sunday and Saturday Afternoons), aside from going into New York for a couple hours in the week for my job so I have plenty of time to walk and play with your animals! I am a very dedicated and detail oriented person so I can assure that your pets will be treated with the utmost care and respect and so will your home if I need to enter it at any point!

About: I’ve taken care of small, medium, and more recently, large dogs for a long time. Whether it’s to relieve the dog for an afternoon potty break, giving some extra cuddles, or staying over for a weekend (or more) to care for them while you’re on vacation, I’ve had a lot of different experiences. I’m currently a school teacher. During the school year, I am available after 4pm and most weekends. During the summer months, my availability is very open. However an owner wants their dog to be taken care of, I can make it work. I know some owners can be very specific about what they want while others are more general. If you describe for me what you’re looking for, I can ensure the best care for your dog.

About: If you're like me, pets are an extension of your family, so I understand how much trust goes into having a stranger care for your dogs and cats. With over 10 years of experience, I've handled everything from cleaning and giving medication to daily feeding routines and enriching playtime. Cats and dogs, all sizes and ages, are welcome. I can't wait to meet your furry family member(s). I recently graduated with my Master's degree. I'm enjoying my time off, and saving up for an apartment while job searching, so I am available all, day everyday. I provide care at your home, following your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, whether that entails feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or any medications. I make sure to keep their environment safe and secure (checking doors/gates/fences) and am more than happy to send updates or photos to you at your request so you know how your pet(s) are while you're away.

“Lauren was absolutely wonderful and took such great care of my cat while I was away on vacation. She sent me updates and pictures every visit and was so patient with my shy kitty who spent her first few visits hiding. They ultimately became best buds which made me feel so much better about being away. I would definitely recommend Lauren and would definitely have her again!”

I will do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine and provide reliable, loving care. I know how important pets are because they are part of the family.

About: Hi ☺️ my name is Dennisse and I have lots of experience taking care of pets, including my 11 year old cat Flame and my 10 year old Labrador mix Muff! I love all animals and promise to give them tons of love during my visits and walks! One of my favorite parts of the day is walking my dog Muff because we both get some much needed exercise and we walk a different route everyday because you know walking the same route and smelling the same things everyday can be boring so I gotta mix it up to keep him entertained. I want to spread the love and care to other pets so here I am creating a Rover profile because my boyfriend said I can’t have any more pets 😅. Thank you for reading and I hope you have a fantastic day! I work from home three times a week and my fiancé is home the other two so there is always someone here to watch the fur babies. I usually take my dog for a long walk once a day and we play in the yard as well. I like to maintain the pet’s routine as much as possible because that reduces anxiety and allows the pet to trust me and feel happy. I like to play with cats and dogs and take dogs out for walks or do a scavenger hunt in the backyard to tire them out so they can sleep peacefully at night.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, attention, and trust I bring to every pet I watch. I’ve cared for friends’, neighbors’, and clients’ pets both in my home and during overnight stays, so I’m very comfortable adapting to each pet’s routine and environment. I have experience with a wide range of needs, including administering medications and injections, and I’m attentive to any changes in behavior or health. Whether it’s an energetic puppy who needs structure and play, or a senior pet who requires a gentler, more patient approach, I tailor my care to what makes them feel safest and happiest. I also prioritize communication, making sure owners feel at ease with regular updates and photos. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free while their owners are away. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, so it’s not something I try to “fit in”, it’s something I intentionally make time for and build my routine around. My approach to pet care is always tailored to each pet’s routine, personality, and needs. In a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their pet’s normal schedule to keep things as stress-free as possible. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions the owner provides. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, affection, and exercise, while also keeping their environment clean and secure. I’m respectful of the home and aim to leave everything just as I found it. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, calm, and comfortable environment where they can feel relaxed and at ease. I keep a consistent routine for feeding, potty breaks, and playtime, and I make sure they get lots of supervision and affection throughout the day.

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with dogs and my genuine love for caring for them. I've had dogs my whole life, so I'm comfortable with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I provide dependable, attentive care and make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved. Whether it's keeping up with an energetic puppy, maintaining routines, or giving extra patience and attention to senior dogs, I treat every pet as if they were my own! Getting that exercise is also apart of my routine, my schedule can be pretty flexible with mornings or nights multiple times a week!! Love walking When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent and stress-free. During walks, I make sure dogs get plenty of exercise, attention, and safe outdoor time. For drop-in visits, I provide fresh water, feeding if needed, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of affection. I always treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away.

About: I'm Michael, your premier local dog walker! Serving the local Two Rivers area and adjacent towns, I provide both dog walking and pet drop in visits that can be scheduled on a consistent or as needed basis. Services can be tailored to the needs of pets and owners alike. Walks are a happy and healthy way to give your pet a bit of exercise and social interaction! 30 minute walks (or longer) can be around your local neighborhood or a nearby park, wherever your dog is most comfortable. If a walk is not the right fit for your dog, a drop-in visit is a great option to provide your pet with some human companionship (potty break and some treats too!). All sizes and breeds are welcome! I have experience with pets of all kinds, including horses! My goal is to provide a relaxed and happy experience for both pet and owner. I offer flexible hours for convenience. Please contact me with any questions or requests! **Have an open and flexible schedule for your needs **I will take time to walk your pet for at least 30 minutes or more upon request I will make sure your cinnabuns get some exercise and everything else they need from being out and about on their walks all while being safe!

Bethany was amazing. She was excellent at communication, and sending plenty of photos while we were away. If she had questions, she always asked and clarified. We agreed to have her boyfriend assist on some days- and our dogs seemed to love him just as much as they loved her! Not everyone can handle a Great Dane and German Shepherd as well as she did :) 100% rebooking with her, and recommending her to family/friends in the area!

Steve is an absolute lifesaver and truly the BEST of the best! As someone living out of state, when a family emergency struck and left our beloved feline companion in need of urgent care during a major holiday week, I was in a complete panic. But then Steve came to the rescue, responding with lightning speed and professionalism that immediately put my mind at ease. He didn't just provide "excellent care"; Steve went above and beyond in every possible way. He understood the anxiety of being far away and proactively sent detailed updates, including photos and videos, which were an incredible source of comfort. Beyond the immediate needs, Steve meticulously identified and communicated a list of necessary supplies, ensuring our furry family member had everything required to remain healthy and safe. Steve's dedication, quick thinking, and genuine compassion transformed a stressful, difficult situation into one filled with immense relief and gratitude. I cannot recommend him highly enough – he's not just a cat sitter, he's a guardian angel for pets and their worried owners!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Keansburg

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Keansburg is $26 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $36 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 26,055 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Keansburg. 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 Keansburg. On Rover:

  • 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 88% 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.
