About: Hi there! I’m a veterinary technician at Sea Girt Animal Hospital, where I’ve been caring for pets for the past five years. Working with animals is truly my passion—I love getting to know each dog and cat’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies who love to play to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I’m also skilled in giving medications (oral, topical, or injectable if needed) and keeping up with any special routines your pet may have. At home, I’m a proud dog mom to one wonderful pups who keep me smiling every day. Whether it’s going for walks, snuggling, playing fetch, or just keeping your pet company, I treat every furry friend like part of my own family. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for—and I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages while you’re away! I am currently working at a veterinary hospital and attending school Monday-Thursday 4:30 to 9:30. I am free all day Wednesday until school and free all day Friday. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my priority is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—feeding times, walks, playtime, and any medications—so they feel right at home even when you’re away. As a veterinary technician with 5 years of experience at Sea Girt Animal Hospital, I’m trained to notice even small changes in a pet’s behavior or health. I’m comfortable administering medications, caring for puppies and senior dogs, and providing gentle, attentive care for pets with special needs. In your home, I always respect your space and your pet’s routine, keeping everything clean and consistent. In my home, pets have a calm, safe environment with plenty of attention, belly rubs, and love. I also make sure to send lots of photo and message updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for!
About: I have taken care of friend’s and family’s cats and dogs for years. I have two cats of my own and my world revolves around them. I know just how important caring visits are for them when I am out of town. I truly enjoy dog walks and meeting new kitties to care for. I work full time M-F 8-4. I am available weeknights and weekends. I could do very early before work visits if needed, locally, as well. When I visit with my current clients dog, we go for long walks in the neighborhood and on the beach. He goes for car rides and visits friends with me.
“Mary was awesome. She accommodated a pretty short notice request for our first time for a drop-in. And while our dogs can be anxious around new people, she had no concerns and took them out and played with them and they had a blast. We will definitely be using her services again.”
“Hunter did a great job with our two dogs and was very responsive to our “visit” service request, did a meet and greet with us earlier this past week and executed on our the agreed to services . Very reliable, pleasant and mature. We received updates and photos on each visit. Hunter is highly recommended.”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for cats and dogs. I have been around both my entire life, which has helped me become comfortable with different personalities, routines, and care needs. I understand that every pet is unique and deserves patience, attention, and reliable care. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm and relaxed environment, I am committed to providing attentive care, companionship, and plenty of affection while you’re away. I currently have full availability from Friday through Sunday, allowing me to dedicate quality time to your pets and ensure they receive the care and attention they deserve. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work Monday through Thursday as an Operations and Program Assistant, which allows me to dedicate my full attention to pet care on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays with open availability. I am also available for morning, evening, and overnight care depending on your pet's needs. Having grown up around cats, dogs, reptiles, and horses, caring for animals has always been a part of my daily life. I enjoy spending time with animals and am committed to providing reliable, attentive care while keeping pets comfortable and maintaining their normal routines. When caring for pets, I focus on maintaining their normal routine and making them feel comfortable and safe. Having cared for my own three cats, I understand the importance of providing fresh food and water, a clean environment, playtime, and plenty of attention. In a client's home, I will follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, litter box or waste cleanup, and any special routines your pet is used to. I also enjoy spending quality time with pets through play, companionship, and enrichment activities to help them feel relaxed while their owners are away. My goal is to treat every pet with the same care, patience, and attention that I would give my own.

About: I have had dogs all my life. I have pet sat for dogs of all breed, age, and size.

I now work at Green Leaf Pet resort in oakhurst and I walk dogs, do daycare and more! I work 5 days a week. I have a set schedule that’s Monday’s, Tuesday's, Wednesday’s, Friday’s, and Saturday’s 2 pm - 9 pm. I’m able to stay overnight and during the day the days I work then I would stay all day on Thursday’s and Sunday's. I stay over at clients houses to keep the pets comfortable in their own environment. I keep the house tidy and can clean the house if wanted. I make sure that how ever the pet is used to there owners taking care of them I take care of them the same. I feed, take out, crate if they get crated, etc.
“Heather has been an occasional caregiver for our puppy, Jerry and our cat, Lola for the last 4 months. She was the first person to puppy sit for Jerry after we got him, and we are so glad that we found her through Rover! Heather assists with last minute dog walks, holiday pet sitting for the cat, as well as drop-ins. She is consistently reliable, and we've always felt 100% comfortable leaving her to care for the pets. We are so happy that she lives just down the road and will definitely be using her for future pet sitting!”
About: I have cared for puppies, dogs, kittens, and cats in my time fostering for animal rescue. I can administer pills or eye drops. I also have experience training puppies. I work from home permanently, so your pup would be supervised during the workday. On the weekends I love adventuring around the city! Your pup would go to farmer's markets and local parks. I would love your dog as if they were my own. They would get exciting walks and meet new friends! I WFH so your pets would have attention and cuddles throughout the day. For everyone's safety, your pup would never be off leash in public and if they are crate trained I would crate them if I needed to leave them home and/or while we are sleeping.

“Sheryl was amazing with our girls. They love her. She arrived 2 times each day as planned and took care of our girls as if they were her own. I would definitely recommend her and we will use her again when needed.”
About: Hi! My name is Genevieve I'm a lifelong animal lover with a gentle, nurturing approach, and I understand just how much your dog means to you. I recently lost my beloved soul dog, and while no one can ever take her place, I've found healing and purpose in caring for other pets with the same love and attention I gave to her. Whether it's playtime, snuggles, walks, or just keeping your dog calm and comfortable while you're away, I treat every pup like they're part of my family. My goal is to create a safe, loving environment where your dog feels at home and you can have peace of mind. I’d be honored to care for your family member and will always provide updates, photos, and plenty of tail wagging joy. I’d love to meet you and your pup! Edit: I have recently moved, and since they don’t allow dogs outside of those you own, I will only be available for dog walking or visiting your home. One of the things that makes me a great sitter is that I work from home full time, which means I’m able to give your dog a consistent, calm, and loving environment. I can easily stick to their normal daily routine…whether that means feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, or just cozy companionship on the couch. I offer daily trips to your house for walks/feedings. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well being are my top priorities. I’ll always follow any rules, routines, or special instructions you provide, because I know that every dog, and every household, is unique.
About: I grew up with dogs, lived with cats, and overall have a strong love for animals. While I can’t have any own dog/pet right now due to finances and time constraints, I’d love to spend some time with your furry friend and get my steps in! I am reliable, loving, and eager to meet new people and pets. I work from 8am-4pm Monday through Friday. My schedule is pretty flexible and I am able to drive home during lunch if needed to let the dog out. I live in a one bedroom apartment with no yard, but I go on daily walks in Belmar. When caring for a dog in my apartment or your home, I would enforce the same rules the dog follows at home in terms of their routine and what is comfortable with you.
About: I am a 10 year pet owner and volunteer at animal shelters walking dogs. I love to go on long walks, play outside, and giving lots of love and treats! I am a current college graduate looking for some part time opportunities. My schedule is very flexible and this allows me to spend time with animals which I enjoy! I am responsible for the grooming and feeding of my own cats and dogs- talking them on walks, cleaning and making sure they are safe.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Neptune City
Keith is an angel who helped us during an emergency when our dog had separation anxiety on vacation. He went above and beyond. He is respectful, trustworthy, great with communication, and my dog absolutely loved him! An amazing person with a huge heart. Keith is the greatest of all time.
Absolutely amazing, super knowledgeable, immensely loving, sweet, and patient with our fur-babies!!! We have yet to have ever, even once, found such a kind, responsible, communicative and absolutely unparalleled person - let alone such a dynamic duo - as these two!!! My partner and I can both tell for 100% sure, from all of the gorgeous, super adorable, photos that Kathy and John take on each of their drop-ins and long walks with our two doggos, that they cannot wait for the next time that Kathy and John come to care for them 🥰😍🤩. Each and every visit, they go for long walks, smell all the sniffs in our neighborhood, play games inside and outside, and get all the food, water, love and attention that they need!! They are simply the best!!
Rachel was great! Our dogs loved her. Not only did she feed and walk them to go potty, she spent time playing with them in the yard. They loved chasing the ball and getting belly rubs. Rachel is a sweet and caring person and would highly recommend her to care for your fur babies!
Jessica is extremely reliable. She is very knowledgeable about dogs and is a true extension with training our 8 month old Havanese, Pebbles. The consistency adds to Pebbles success. The lond voice and affection Jessica gives to Pebbles is appreciated and genuine. We highly recommend Jessica!!
Emily is the absolute best! We continue to rebook her to take care of our 2 dogs. By now she has built a beautiful relationship with our boys. She goes above and beyond to make sure they eat and that they are in good spirits when we have to go away. Our boys are very attached to us and they get so sad when we have to leave them. Emily is so caring and attentive with them. This last time when we returned from our trip the boys looked so happy and healthy. That was all thanks to the wonderful care and attention Emily gives them. I love getting the updates from her, each update comes in on time with pictures and videos. It eases my mind and heart that my babies are being cared for by such a wonderful person. She’s a star! We are so lucky to have found her. ✨🤩✨

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.
