About: I can provide reliable care for all life cycles from babies to seniors. I focus on your pet's schedule and work to create soothing care. I have a flexible schedule and can meet morning, afternoon, evening, and late night drop ins for care with a focus on individual pet needs. I care for your pets with drop ins tailored to their needs. Keeping schedules on track helps reduce stress for most animals. I work with you to set up the guidelines of care.
“Chelsea was very communicative and sent lots of photos during the time she stayed at my house while watching my pup. I’d recommend her for house/pet sitting and hope to have her back!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and genuinely feel they’re meant to be by your side. I have hands-on experience with senior care, helping an older dog walk, carrying him when needed, and keeping him comfortable. Dogs understand emotions and give unconditional support, and I make sure to return that same care, patience, and love to every dog I watch. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work part-time about 25–30 hours a week at a nearby job, which gives me plenty of flexibility. I can consistently provide walks, attention, feeding, and care throughout the day, making sure your dog is never neglected and always looked after In a client’s home, I stick closely to your dog’s routine to keep them comfortable and happy. I handle feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care needed. I’m very respectful of your space, always clean up after myself and the dog, and make sure your home stays in great condition while you’re away.
“Bryan did a great job dog sitting Mikey. We had to cut our trip early due to the snow storm and Bryan was very flexible and took so much stress off our plate. Would highly recommend him to anyone planning a trip - especially dog owners like me who often stress about finding the right person for their pup!”
About: I had the pleasure of owning a Golden Retriever for 13.5 years. During that time I trained her, socialized her with other dogs, and gave her a loving home. I learned the different needs and characteristics of the breed and how to handle larger dogs. I'm also knowledgeable on common AKC guidelines. I work remotely Monday through Friday, which gives me flexibility during the week to care for your pets. On weekends, I sometimes have events for my small business and love spending time with family. Please feel free to message me your preferred times — I’m happy to work something out that fits both of our schedules! I strive to create a comfortable environment to accommodate your pets needs as much as possible. I'm adaptive, flexible, and willing to work in a variety of different situations.
“Heather was great! She took great care of our pets and home — we came back to happy pups and everything just as we left it. Also sent us pictures everyday and kept us in the loop, Highly recommend!!! 😊”
“Meg was absolutely wonderful with our pups! They loved her the moment they met her. She is definitely a dog person. Meg took pictures of the pups during walks and when they were lounging in the living room. They looked so relaxed and chill, not looking as if they were anxiously missing us. She was very diligent in her care for our pups. We have two senior dogs, and one has special needs and she handled them as a pro. We are looking forward to having her watch them again.”
“Nicole watched our dogs for us last week while we were away and it was such a great experience. We loved all the daily updates and photos she would send us. It was so nice to be on vacation and not worry about our animals because we knew Nicole was taking such good care of them! We will definitely be using her services again in the future. Nicole goes above and beyond and truly loves your pets like they’re her own.”
About: With over 15 years of experience as a responsible pet owner and lifelong animal lover, I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes, weights, and breeds. Although limited I do have experience caring for cats. (My girlfriend has cats) Alongside this, I bring 25 years of professional project management experience, which means I’m organized, reliable, and attentive to details. I truly enjoy caring for animals and would genuinely look forward to giving your pets the attention, care, and respect they deserve. I work from home M-F. My weekend availability is spotty as I work in Lambertville NJ some Saturdays and Sundays (seasonal) so just ask and I will do my best to accommodate. I will care for your pets in your home exactly how you do. I appreciate precise details of your pet’s habits, things that bring them happiness and expectations of anyone caring for them.
About: I have had dogs my entire life so I have always looked after and cared for them. I also frequently dog sit for friends and family members. I work remotely so I am very flexible and am able to accommodate your needs. I have an open schedule on weekends and after work. I am able to follow instructions clearly and create a comfortable environment. I can help with any of your needs, including walking, feeding, and playing!
“Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for caring for Cooper during our wedding! Samantha is so caring towards our pup, and sends regular updates. We are so grateful to have someone we can rely on to watch our baby!”
About: Hi! I’m Amanda, a nurse and lifelong animal lover who is brand new to Rover and so excited to be here. Caring for others has always been a huge part of who I am, both professionally and personally, and that same level of compassion, patience, and attentiveness carries over into the way I care for pets. I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your furry family members. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and anxious, or needs a little extra patience and TLC, I’m happy to meet them where they are and make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As a nurse, safety, reliability, and attention to detail are second nature to me. I take caring for pets very seriously, from secure leashes and locked gates to making sure routines, medications, feeding schedules, and special instructions are followed closely. I know how nerve wracking it can feel leaving your pets with someone new, so my goal is to give you peace of mind while giving your pets lots of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend! I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy making time for pet care throughout my week. I work as a nurse, so being dependable, communicative, and attentive comes naturally to me. I’m excited to be starting my journey on Rover and look forward to building lasting relationships with both pets and their owners Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I pay close attention to details like secure leashes, closed gates, feeding instructions, medications, and routines to make sure every pet is safe and cared for. As a nurse and lifelong animal lover, I understand how important trust is when leaving your pets with someone, and I’ll care for them like they’re my own.
“Jennifer was wonderful! A lot of interaction with our Diesel. Showed true concern for his well being. I would highly recommend her and so would Diesel. Will definitely utilize her services again!”
“Tokar was amazing! Our pup has a rather long list of feed and care instructions and Tokar was able to do everything we asked. We had pictures of her relaxing on the couch and she even slept in bed with her on the last night. If that doesn't say that she felt comfort having Tokar here, I don't know what does. It's always nerve-wracking leaving your dog and house in someone's care but I know in future we will have no qualms about using Tokar again.”
“I could not have found a better dog sitter. Lisa was simply amazing. She went above and beyond to ensure. Cappy’s happiness, comfort, and well-being. She was compassionate and empathetic, not only towards Cappy, but to me as well, as I am a recent widow. You will not find a more kind or caring dog sitter. I highly recommend Lisa. I assure you, you will not be disappointed.”
“Jill was amazing!! I had her watch my dogs on my wedding night which was a huge relief so I didn’t have to worry about them. She stayed overnight with them. I knew they were in good hands with her. Would highly recommend!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Mantoloking
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Mantoloking on Rover is $19.43 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,172 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mantoloking. 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 Mantoloking 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 Mantoloking 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 Mantoloking 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
