“Catrina had immediate rapport with my 2 cats and did a great job with updates and pictures. Since one of the cats was new to the household and had only been with the resident cat about 5 weeks I really appreciated the information as I was nervous leaving them alone. Catrina played with them and took good care of food and litter boxes. Everything was neat and clean and the cats were happy when I got home.”
About: I previously worked at Best Friends Pet Care. I worked there for two and a half years! I specialized there as a tiny camp counselor where I monitored a group of small to medium sized dogs for a few hours. I have experience handling, playing with and taking care of dogs from 2lbs to 150lbs, i’ve seen it all! I’ve also dealt with dogs of many ages from puppies to seniors. I have two family dogs of my own and currently have a cat with my partner and am my happiest when caring for fuzzy friends! I’m used to having an animal around 24/7 and wouldn’t have it any other way. I am currently in between jobs after a move. I am now available Monday- Friday anywhere from 10am - 5pm! I have lots of time to be with your fur baby. I can communicate with you on whatever you need for your pets! Whether that involves walks/ medication/ crates/ play time etc. I am open to hearing your dog’s personal needs and helping how I can!
“Abigail was patient with my stubborn and mischievous collie, who is 60 lbs and not the easiest to manage. My collie was relaxed and content after her visits. I also left a long list of instructions, which were followed to the letter. That shows good and trustworthy work. Thank you, Abigail!”
“Hon did a fantastic job taking care of my fur babies while I was out for a week and a half. Besides being very loving, the kitties are doing well…and my home was cared for with respect. Hon is fantastic!”
“Being my first time using Rover, I was a bit unsure, but Yasmine made the whole experience so easy and reassuring. She took such great care of my cat, Xavi, and kept me updated with messages and adorable photos. It was clear that Xavi felt comfortable with her, which put my mind at ease while I was away. Yasmine’s attention to detail and genuine love for animals really stood out. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my first time using Rover, and I’ll definitely trust her with Xavi again in the future!”
“Boryana was very attentive to our kitties and made time to play with them. We appreciated the detailed updates and pictures. She took care of everything and made us feel at ease while away from our fur babies.”
“Sha was a really great pet sitter for Kulfi. It was easy to communicate with her even during the midst of the holidays which are a very busy time, and everything went really smoothly. Thank you so much!”
“We are so happy that Pam was able to take care of Lily, and we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that she was in such great hands. Pam did an amazing job and was very professional, keeping us updated and sending pictures after every visit. We wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again in the future and highly recommend her services. Thank you, Pam!”
“Yaqin was great with Fafa! It was too hot outside for a regular walk, so she adjusted the visit and found other ways to keep Fafa active and entertained. She even did some strength exercises with him and gave him plenty of enrichment and attention. I really appreciated how attentive she was and how well she adapted to Fafa’s needs. Would definitely book with her again!”
About: I am a local resident and a dog dad to a big Lab mix. I enjoy being outdoors and know how to handle dogs safely on a leash. I'm honest, punctual, and I'll make sure your dog gets a great walk. I have a very flexible work schedule, so I am available for walks throughout the day. Whether you need help in the morning or the afternoon, I can easily adjust my time to fit your dog's routine. I'm around when you need me. Safety is my number one priority. I always keep dogs securely on a leash and pay attention to our surroundings, not my phone. I will treat your dog and your home with the same respect and care that I give my own family.
“Nina was great with our cat. She is 100% reliable, always showing up on schedule and staying for the full duration of her appointment. She engaged well with our shy cat, and he warmed up to her and began building more trust in her - flopping onto his side, eating when she was here, looking like he was ready to play. We will definitely use her again!”
“Keiko is amazing! She took such great care of my 3 kitties and did a wonderful job overall. She was extremely patient with my cats, took wonderful photos, and had great communication during and after each visit! She made me feel very comfortable leaving my cats in her care while I was away. I truly appreciated her going above and beyond and all of her help. Thank you Keiko!”
“great communication all the time and love all the photo updates. she is proactive with any issues and makes sure to keep you updated in a timely manner. and we always use katrina anytime we go out of town for vacation.”
“Megan is a great communicator and made our dogs (and us) very happy! She showed up on exactly time and followed our directions to the tee. We will definitely hire her again!”
“Vee did an excellent job taking care of my two cats while I was away for ~4 days. She left detailed check-ins with photos that really put me at ease. I came home to two happy cats that had clearly been well taken care of and loved.”
“My kitty was very happy when Megan came. She kept us update with pictures and messages. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing our little guy was being taken care of.”
“Aayush has been a very reliable and conscientious sitter! He took excellent care of our cat's feeding schedule and a clean litter. Gave us complete peace of mind to trust Aayush when we had an emergency international travel. We're so grateful to have found such a trustworthy and helpful Rover. I highly recommend Aayush to anyone looking for a kind, dependable, and trustworthy pet sitter!”

Brooke was thorough, attentive, and dependable. She visited our two cats twice each day for a week, giving injectable insulin to our one diabetic cat at each visit. Our other cat is very shy and hides but Brooke always located her (usually finding her under a bed!) to make sure she was okay. Would definitely hire Brooke again!
Yaqin was great with Fafa! It was too hot outside for a regular walk, so she adjusted the visit and found other ways to keep Fafa active and entertained. She even did some strength exercises with him and gave him plenty of enrichment and attention. I really appreciated how attentive she was and how well she adapted to Fafa’s needs. Would definitely book with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Monmouth Junction on Rover is $25.53 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 5,066 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Monmouth Junction. 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 Monmouth Junction 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.
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 Monmouth Junction. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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 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.
