Erin was great!! She was punctual, communicative, and overall fantastic! I have a cat and dog and know they can be a handful at times. She did a great job taking care of them and also making sure I was updated on them everyday!

About: I have experience dropping in to feed cats and giving them the attention and love they want. I also grew up with a lot of friends with dogs, and I get along with their pets very well. I work part time in retail at two different stores, but they schedule me for only a few days a week and no more than 6 hours, so I have lots of time for your animals. I care for pets in my clients homes. I give them love and attention but I will also give space if they’re not up for play time.

About: Hi! We're Gina and Alana, a dedicated mother-daughter duo with years of experience caring for all kinds of fur babies, including dogs, cats, reptiles and small rodents. Over the years, we've rescued and adopted over 15 animals, giving us experience with a wide range of personalities, breeds, and ages! We've been our neighborhoods go-to sitters for over 10 years. Animals have always been a huge part of our family, and caring for them is something we genuinely love. In fact, Alana loves it so much that she became a professional dog groomer. Our friends, family and clients joke that we're animal whisperers because animals seem to gravitate toward us wherever we go. Whether your pet loves to play, cuddle, go on walks or simply have someone nearby, we'll make sure they feel safe, happy and loved while you're away. We know how much your pets mean to you because we feel the same way about ours. When they're with us, they're family. ❤️ We can't wait to meet your babies! We’re now caring for pets full-time, which means more flexibility, more attention, and more kisses for your fur babies! Just let us know when you need us and we'll be there. We currently have 8 fur babies of our own, all with different personalities, routines, and care needs, so we understand that every pet is unique! Just let us know any special instructions, preferences, quirks or routines your pet has and we'll follow them. Whether it's a specific feeding schedule, a favorite toy, a bedtime routine or even needing a special phrase before they'll eat!

As always, Jodi did a fantastic job. I was out of the country for the third time, and she always made sure that my cat received great care on each drop-in visit. I really appreciated her communication and snapshots of my cat. I will continue to use her services.

I do have a day job, but I tend to be free in the mornings or afternoons! I have a very active lifestyle so your dog will get all the activities they need! I am very knowledgeable with all types of harnesses, collars, and leashes so I will make sure your dog is fitted properly and safe! Also, I have a lot of experience with feeding dogs and cleaning up after them, so I can make sure your home is spotless! Daily enrichment activities and training is something I incorporate in every service no matter the dog!

About: I have had cats since I was a kid, walked my friends’ dogs in the neighborhood and just love being outside in their company walking and playing. I am currently working from home and have plenty of time during the day to walk your pet friend. I love to be outside in any weather and will take nice long walks and play. My family member has developed bad allergies so I cannot have my own pets. I love dogs and cats a lot and will enjoy their company.

About: I have experience caring for both cats and dogs with a wide range of personalities and needs, from energetic and playful to shy, senior, or more independent pets. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including those who may need extra attention, routine, or patience. I’ve also cared for a variety of animals beyond cats and dogs, which has helped me develop a calm, adaptable approach to pet care. My focus is always on making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I primarily provide care in clients’ homes to keep pets comfortable in their own environment and maintain their usual routine. I focus on creating a calm, safe experience by following each pet’s established habits, routines, and care instructions closely.

About: I believe what sets me apart is the level of care, attention, and communication I provide. Since I work from home full-time, pets receive consistent supervision, companionship, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. I have a spacious yard for supervised outdoor play, and I treat every pet like a member of my own family. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to follow each owner's instructions carefully—from feeding schedules and exercise to medications and special preferences. I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable while you're away. I also know how important peace of mind is for pet parents, which is why I provide regular photo and video updates and maintain open communication throughout every stay. My goal is for both you and your pet to have a stress-free, positive experience from start to finish. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. Pet care is a part of my daily routine, including walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of affection. I make sure every pet receives individual attention and never feels neglected. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow your pet's routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medication (if needed), exercise, and any special instructions. I keep a clean, pet-friendly environment, supervise pets at all times, and provide regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I take the time to build trust with each pet, allowing them to adjust at their own pace and using positive reinforcement to help them feel safe and comfortable.

About: I have experience dog sitting for family and friends, and I was a proud dog owner for many years until my beloved dog passed away a few years ago. Caring for dogs has always been something I enjoy, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I would love the opportunity to care for your dog during the week, whether that means going for walks, providing companionship, or helping maintain their routine. Spending time with dogs doesn’t feel like work to me, it’s something I genuinely enjoy I’m a middle school vice principal who is looking for a fun summer job, and I can’t think of one better than spending it taking care of dogs! I have summers off so this job is my top priority, I’m a huge dog person and look forward to spending time hanging out with them any time during the day A dogs safety is always a top priority, which is why I will constantly monitor them while I’m there, and give them the attention they deserve. Being respectful of clients homes and belonging is very important and a critical part of my approach to taking care of their pet

My dogs are having a great time getting to know Jennie. She sends me videos of the dogs wagging their tails and playing. She also keeps me updated on how the visits are going and sends a bunch of photos which is great! Jennie is very communicative and responsive. She has attended to all of my requests and followed any instructions I have provided. Jennie has been a pleasure to interact with and I’m glad my dogs have responded so well to her care. I highly recommend Jennie!

About: I have years of hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. High-energy dogs get real exercise thanks to my competitive soccer background, while puppies, seniors, and shy cats get patience and a routine that matches what they know from home. I work from home Mondays and Fridays, so pets get genuine attention and company, not just a quick check-in. Expect photo updates, fast communication, and a happy pet when you walk in the door. Pet care fits naturally into my week. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, so pets staying with me those days have company from morning to night, with walks, play sessions, and meals built right into my day. On weekends I'm home and fully available, which makes Friday through Sunday stays easy and stress-free. My schedule is consistent week to week, so your pet gets a reliable routine: morning walk or feeding, midday play and attention, and evening wind-down time. I'm an active person, so daily exercise is never skipped. In my home, pets are part of the family. Dogs get multiple daily walks, playtime, and constant company since I work from home Mondays and Fridays and I'm around all weekend. I keep your pet's feeding schedule and routine exactly the same as at home so the stay feels familiar. Cats get a quiet, consistent setup with their litter, food, and favorite spots. In your home, I follow your routine exactly: feeding, walks, litter, and anything else your pet needs, plus photo updates every visit so you know they're doing great.

About: I’ve spent the last 6 years caring for dogs and cats for families in my neighborhood, including puppies, high‑energy dogs, and seniors who need a gentler pace. I regularly do dog walking, drop‑in visits, and house sitting, and I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, medications, walks, and playtime. I treat every animal like my own, send lots of photo updates, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed while their people are away. I’m a college student, so my availability is best during school breaks and holidays. When I’m home in New Jersey, I’m generally free on both weekdays and weekends, and I’m happy to work around your travel plans. I keep my calendar up to date and respond quickly so we can find times that fit your schedule. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to the routines you already have in place—feeding schedule, walk times, and house rules. I always double‑check doors, gates, and leashes, and I watch for any changes in behavior or appetite that might signal a problem. I’m respectful of your home, keep things tidy, and send clear updates and photos so you always know how your pets are doing.

About: Over the past 5+ years, I’ve cared for the pets of friends and family, not as a business, but as a way to support them during vacations, work trips, or emergencies. It’s something I’ve always done out of love and a genuine desire to help. My wife also grew up having different pets, including cats, dogs, and other small animals. Together, we share a strong bond with animals and a commitment to provide them with comfort, safety, and affection. I work 100% from home, which allows me to provide consistent attention and care to the pets I look after. Your dog will enjoy plenty of companionship, playtime, and bathroom breaks throughout the day. They’ll never feel alone or ignored. We live in a comfortable, pet-friendly townhouse where your pet will be treated like family. Pets are welcome on the furniture and free to roam throughout the house. There are no restrictions on movement inside, so they can relax and settle in wherever they feel most comfortable. While we don’t have a backyard, we make sure dogs get regular outdoor time with safe, on-leash walks around our quiet, secure complex and the surrounding neighborhood. We never allow pets off-leash while outside, under any circumstances, to ensure their safety at all times.

Arianna was truly wonderful with our dog. She agreed to take care of him for a trip we planned with little notice. While we were away there was a massive storm and she made sure our pup was well taken care of and was very communicative with us to put our minds at ease. She took care of parts of our house that were impacted by the storm as well.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Mendham on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 22,920 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Mendham. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Mendham stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Mendham 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!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Mendham with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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.
