About: I’m on Rover to help you out with any / all your pets needs while you’re away! I work full time as a student analyst in a public school. I don’t dog train, but I am familiar with any techniques that you may need for your pup! I have 3 dogs and 3 cats of my own. I have experience with all breeds! All mutts and senior pups are welcome. I also have experience administering medication to dogs. All dogs of breeds and age deserve attention and love. I’d love it if you let me love your pets as if they are my own too! Thank you for reading this. I am able to work with the families in terms of what they need. My calendar may not always reflect accurately as my times with my full-time job (human) clients do fluctuate. If it is blocked off it means I am 100% unavailable. I don’t recommend myself in terms of full-on puppy training and 24/7 puppy care due to my schedule but I am versed in the training techniques due to my career. I am available weekends for extra care and staying in your home full time. My pets are well loved and taken care of while I care for others. I will never be able to host in my home, so please consider this! I offer in home care, overnight, daily walks, and check ins. Animals will not be hosted in my home due to a senior dog I have who is on medication. For those reasons, home sitting is only available in terms of long care. I have done walks, trips to stores, parks, yard play, and car trips with fur babies for daily drop ins, walks, or overnight stays!

“We are so grateful to have found Angelica. She is very professional and compassionate. She went above and beyond while we were away to take the best care of our pup and our house. She was diligent in sending us updates and always making sure we knew Bisci was safe and having fun. We would recommend her to anyone who needs a sitter. Thank you Angelica!!!”

About: I love dogs! I used to own a professionally trained service dog and I still follow all the correct service animal commands when interacting with dogs. I also assisted in the birth of her 3 puppies which I raised for 12 weeks. I’ve walked and cared for both male and female dogs, from chihuahuas to black labs. I have toys, bowls, and a bed for them already in my home — and they’re always allowed on the furniture. Can’t wait to meet your fur-baby! I work on short cruise ship contracts so when I’m home, I’m REALLY home with nothing else going on. I like going for 45-min neighborhood walks on my own and would love to have some four-legged companionship. I wake up early and go to bed around 10:30pm. I don’t drink or smoke so I am always 100% mentally clear. I live with my mom in a large suburban home with a beautiful yard on a dead-end street and plenty of low-traffic streets to walk your dog around. Your dog(s) will be the center of attention since there are no other animals or children in the home!

About: Hi there! Although I only recently reactivated this app, caring for dogs is nothing new to me. I’ve been around dogs my entire life and grew up with herding breeds. I raised my beloved Border Collie, Zoey (see Gallery), from puppyhood through adulthood. She has since crossed the 🌈 bridge, but during her life I taught her fun commands like “take a bow” and “play dead.” ________________ Today, I own a longhaired male Dachshund named Moose. He loves other dogs, is up to date on his core vaccines, and is currently unneutered. Because of him, I have firsthand experience with the unique care that long-bodied breeds require, including proper handling techniques and back protection. ________________ I’ve also cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I am American Red Cross Certified in Dog First Aid 🐾 and have experience caring for medical dogs who require a little extra attention. My prior Border Collie, Zoey, was dog-reactive and medically disabled (she was completely blind in one eye), so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and adapting care to a dog’s individual needs. ______________ My priority is keeping your pup happy, comfortable, and safe in their environment while you are away. We will discuss what your dog’s regular routine entails, and I will provide him/her with plenty of love and attention and treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. You can relax knowing your dog is in caring, capable hands while you’re away.I strive to provide individualized attention, maintain a calm, low-stress environment, and tailor my care to each dog’s unique needs.🐶 I am home during the day; during our initial consult meeting, I will coordinate with you to find times that will work for you and your schedule. 🐾🐶 We can go over any quirks and routines that you like to do for your pup to ease separation anxiety (such as leaving the TV on 😊) to ensure your fur baby feels safe and loved while in my care🐾

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 been professionally dog walking and taking care of pets for about a year now, but I’ve been around animals my whole life. I honestly just really enjoy being around them and getting to know all their different personalities. I have experience with dogs, cats, and even small pets like rats. I do walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, overnight stays, and just making sure your pets are happy and comfortable while you’re away. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and energy levels, whether they want to run around and play or just hang out and relax. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always try to make visits fun, calm, and stress-free for them. I know how important it is to trust the person taking care of your pets, so I always try to be reliable, communicative, and make sure both you and your pets feel comfortable. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. I currently do dog walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care throughout the week, and I’ve also cared for my own pets my whole life. I’m used to planning my schedule around pets and making sure they get the attention, exercise, and care they need. I genuinely enjoy it, and spending time with animals fits naturally into my routine. I currently provide care in my clients’ homes and try to keep pets as comfortable and relaxed as possible by following their normal routine. I always follow the instructions owners provide, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, playtime, and any specific care instructions or preferences their pets have. I know every pet is different, so I try to pay attention to their personality and comfort level while making sure they feel safe, cared for, and comfortable while their owners are away.

“It was such an absolute pleasure having Shri over. He took incredible care of Gregorie and Fredrex, and we are so grateful for his generosity and tremendous help. Shri was wonderful, he took Gregorie on daily walks, gave the cat her medicine, and stayed with them to keep them company while we were away. We cannot thank you enough, Shri!”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats my whole life! Looking for some pets to take care of in the Monmouth County area.

I finished up my 4th season of soccer with Monmouth University and now with my added free time I would like to help out anyone in need. I live in a welcoming home with a lot of girls who love all types of animals. I am willing to make any accommodations to make your pets feel safe!

“Sheryl came to meet Izzie and Coquine and they seemed to take to her right away. She described her background and asked for information I hadn't thought to provide. She played with my playful border collie outside and became familiar with her routines and needs. Sheryl sent numerous pictures of both pets and kept me apprised of their activities. They both seemed very happy while I was gone. I felt confident that all would be well at home and the confidence was justified. I came home to find everything as usual- as if I had never left :-) I highly recommend her as a caretaker for your dear pets.”

About: Reliable, Consistent, Professional, and full of LOVE for all creatures great and small - that's me! Your pooch deserves (and probably demands) the best while you are away, and you deserve peace of mind. I have been in the animal rescue world since I rescued my first dog 15 years ago. He was special needs, and truly special. He spawned my love and desire to care for these precious animals. I have been trained at a local shelter to walk dogs that have been through a lot of stressful situations, and I do so with the utmost care and compassion. I have taken and passed the Fear Free training sessions. We have welcomed dozens of fosters into our home to rehabilitate and get them available for adoption, using positive reinforcements. When you're here, you're family. We have always been a 2-dog household, but now are the home for one small princess. I am eager to give belly rubs, cuddles, walks, food and treats to your precious fur-baby! I might possibly love it more than they do! :) I have more flexibility towards the end of the week and weekends, it depends on which service you need. I am also available on some holidays. Let's chat! TRUST - it is so important to feel and to know that your family is in good hands. Your pet is family, and I will do everything to make sure they are safe, having fun, and feel loved. I take a calm, attentive approach to caring for pets, whether in my home or yours. I understand how to recognize the signs of stress in animals and always work to keep them comfortable and happy. I will stick to a schedule that works for your pet. I like to understand their likes and dislikes. If they need a 5 mile walk, then that is what we do. If they prefer a leisurely half-mile stroll, we’ll take it slow. Fetch, belly rubs, or cuddle time— no problem! If they are at my home, I have a completely fenced in yard, with reinforcements so if they're small, they cannot get under the fence. Inside the house, I have the ability to safely separate spaces inside my home with gates if needed. It is truly an honor for me to care for our companion animals.

About: I've always had a huge love for dogs, and with years of hands-on experience, I've had the opportunity to care for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities! I spent four years at Pet Supplies Plus as a dog bather, where I learned firsthand the patience and dedication that go into caring for dogs. I've also worked with dogs who prefer their personal space, dogs who may be shy or hesitant around other dogs, and senior dogs or dogs with mobility issues who need a little extra help, including getting up and down stairs. As a Clinical Mental Health Counseling master's student, I bring a unique level of patience, attentiveness, and understanding to the care I provide. I believe every dog deserves to have their individual needs and personality respected, whether that means endless cuddles and playtime or giving them the space and comfort they need. I'm happy to meet each dog where they're at and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I also love sending plenty of pictures and updates so you never have to worry while you're away! I make it a priority to create a dedicated schedule for you and your pets that works around their individual needs, including meals, walks, playtime, and overnight care. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate pet care throughout the week. As a graduate student, I do have some classes and internship commitments, but I am able to plan around those to ensure your pets receive plenty of attention and care. I have the most flexibility on weekends and love to spend the entire day with your pets. I am also available for overnights and will have even more flexibility during school breaks, including winter break. I will even put together a written schedule outlining feeding times, walks, playtime, and when I will be with your pets, so you know exactly what their routine will look like while they are in my care. My goal is to make sure your pets feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while keeping their routine as consistent as possible! I always prefer to arrange a meet-and-greet beforehand so I can get to know you and your pet, learn their routine, and understand your preferences. I want your pet to feel comfortable and familiar with me before you leave. I'm also comfortable caring for pets with mobility challenges or health conditions, and accidents or unexpected messes are never a problem! I pay close attention to changes in behavior or signs that something may be wrong so I can recognize when a pet might need additional or emergency care. During longer stays and overnights, I love having a new study buddy and making sure they receive plenty of attention and companionship. I prioritize their health and safety, including being mindful of their surroundings and other animals during walks. I also send plenty of pictures and updates so you always know how your pet is doing! I make sure to leave your home neat and tidy, clean up after your pet, and vacuum when needed so you can come home to a happy pet and a tidy space!

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life. I’ve done all the chores that come with them. I’ve had a big dog and a little dog almost my entire life. My big dog is now older, so I have to help him with his arthritis. I’ve had to pick up poop, feed them, walk them, and massage him. I don’t have a job currently, so I’m free for anyone’s convenience! Besides when I have to go to the gym, or when im on vacation. I have a fenced yard and a specific place for them to use the bathroom outside, and also have a pee pee pad inside that I switch out twice a day.

Danielle is the Best! I had to scramble to replace a sitter who dropped out right before I was set to leave for 2 weeks and going forward Danielle will certainly be my first choice to watch my guy Frankie. I have a large (100 Lb.) older dog with some mobility issues and Danielle had no problem with his walks as well as his feeding and medication schedule and made sure to keep him company while I was gone. She also sent regular updates and pictures and was quick to respond to any messages. Cannot recommend enough!

Kamryn is the best! She spends time and truly care about our pets - and they love her for it. Additionally, we had a small issue with our home during her sitting and she was patient, helped problem solve and genuinely made it easy to be away. We've already booked her again - and so should you!

FAQs for House Sitting - Lincroft

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Lincroft is $49 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $44 and $97 per night. 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 16,252 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lincroft. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Lincroft walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Lincroft maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:

  • Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
  • Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
  • Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.

Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!

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 Lincroft 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!

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.

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.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lincroft. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% 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.
