“We'd definitely book with Kayla again. Super responsive, sends updates/pics, clearly great with animals. We can tell our cat liked her. Gave us peace of mind while we were traveling.”
“Jake is wonderful. We went on a trip for a week and he stayed with our older dogs. We got pictures and updates from Jake, he took them on walks and outside. The dogs are happy and the house was well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Jake. We never leave our dogs with anyone so this was a big deal and we can’t thank Jake enough for making this a great experience.”
“Justin was absolutely the best. He sent so many pictures told me what they were doing (my pup beau) even moved my flowers out of the sun as it was so hot he said they were dying stripped the bed and washed the sheets before he left. House was neat and most of all Beau looked great. Thank you Justin”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for over 20 years and currently have two of my own. I have experience volunteering for animal shelters and can handle meds, clean up, walks, or assistance for special needs animals. I am insured with Pet Sitters Associates. While in my care, your fur babies are my highest priority and I will love them as if they were my own! I’m currently on a sabbatical from work and am available most days during the week. After taking care of my own, I am free for walks and play starting at 8:30am until 6pm. Peace of mind, pet safety, and your pets contentment is my highest priority and I will follow the exact instructions provided by the pet owner.
“5 stars is not nearly enough stars to capture how grateful we are that Purvi took care of our two labs, Addy and Stanley, while we took a recent vacation. Our Addy had just turned 15 the week before Purvi came to dog sit, and we were a bit anxious to leave her with anyone. Knowing that she has been having both good days and bad days made us quite nervous to go on vacation. But from the moment Purvi stepped foot in our home for the Meet and Greet, I immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Purvi was just so kind with both of our dogs, and they loved her immediately. Purvi clearly knew that we were worried about Addy, so she consistently reached out at least two times a day while we were away. She made special efforts to let us know that Addy was eating, and although we know she had to clean up after a few accidents, Purvi never once complained. It was so wonderful to receive photos of the dogs throughout our trip. Seeing that they looked perfectly fine helped us to relax and truly enjoy our vacation. Purvi is a true animal lover, and both of our dogs loved her immediately. We would not hesitate to ask Purvi to dog sit for us again. Thank you, Purvi!”
“Alexis did a great job sitting for Pearl. She came to meet her and get oriented to the house ahead of time. She confirmed the booking quickly and followed up with a message the day before the job. Alexis took good care of our cat and kept us updated with texts and photos. She followed all instructions and left the house clean. I recommend hiring her!”
About: I am a teacher looking for something to do on weekends and the summertime! I love love dogs and cats! I have had multiple dogs and cats growing up since I was born in the 90’s. On my own I have 2 dogs and 1 cat whom I love so very much! I have taken care of family pets, neighbors pets, and other types of pets like birds! I’m a teacher. So weekends work the best! Once summer hits in mid June, then I’m available M-F, too! Since I’m a kindergarten teacher, I’m a nurturer, and a huge lover of animals. My mother donates to the ASPCA and WWF every year. I will do my absolute best to cater to the needs of your furry family members, whether dog or cat! Crates, special foods, treats, toys, or just plain quality time! I’m here for the vibes! I also would love to meet the pups or cats before the services start to see if we are a match!
“Yana is beyond wonderful! Our Charlie is so comfortable with her and she truly takes great care of him. We are spoiled having her to take care of our very spoiled “with love” Charlie ❤️”
About: Are you interested in having someone stop by during the day? Do you wish your dog could get out for a walk while you’re stuck at work? Or better yet, did you just get a puppy? I’m here to help you out! I’m an experienced dog owner and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I currently own three dogs and we love going on our daily walks. Being a pack leader is so much fun! If you’d like your dog to get some love and attention during the day then I may be the one for you. It would be my pleasure. I’d be more than happy to update you with a picture during each visit. And I will always treat your pup as if it was my own.
“Ethan has been such an amazing sitter for our pup. He's reliable, trustworthy, and always accommodating. He's there to help us whenever he can & is always super responsive. It's hard to find people to depend on, but Ethan is one of them! We're so thankful for him & would highly recommend his services to others.”
About: I’ve always had multiple pets my whole life from a young age, learned responsibilities by feeding, grooming, walking, entertaining, training and medically providing for all my pets and any animal in my care. I have experience working in multiple vet clinics throughout my childhood as I was a pre-vet major up until junior year of college so I have a lot of experience with all kinds of animals and medical knowledge as well. I now have my own dog, Appa, who is 2 that I raised from a puppy and am currently self training. I am currently a phd grad student at vanderbilt university so I have morning classes and lab work, but I live right down the road from campus (less than 5 min drive) and I always come home immediately after my classes/work to be home with Appa. Pet care fits into my daily schedule as I spend as much time as i can working from home so I can be with my dog. I have a 1 bedroom apartment and i live with my 2 year old fur baby named Appa! I have an apt with room for some zoomies and room to play with toys, I have a balcony if they like being outside and my buidling also has a small dog park on the roof with 2 fenced circular yards lined with turf so they can run around at a mini park as much as they want!
About: Hi! My name is Rosie and I have been caring for pets for friends, neighbors, and families for many years. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, overnight stays, and giving pets the attention and care they deserve while their owners are away. Outside of pet sitting, I have years of babysitting experience, a Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science from Seton Hall University, and I am currently in nursing school. My background has taught me responsibility, patience, and attention to detail. I’m dependable, caring, and will treat your pets like they are my own. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you feel comfortable while away! I am currently available all summer with a very flexible schedule and would love to help care for your pets while you’re away on vacations, working long hours, or just need an extra helping hand. I am available for drop-ins, walks, and overnight stays, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine including feeding times, walks, playtime, medications, and plenty of love and attention. I will be starting nursing school again in September, so my availability may change slightly, but I will always communicate ahead of time and do my best to continue providing reliable, consistent care. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home. I will always treat your pets like they are my own by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I am respectful of every owner’s home and will follow all instructions, routines, feeding schedules, and special requests to provide the best care possible.
“At the risk of writing such a glowing review that Jennifer becomes so popular that she's no longer available to watch our boys, I have to say having her pet sit was an across the board excellent experience. Our prior sitter bailed on us last minute and Jennifer came through with professionalism on very short notice. She came very prepared and took notes on how we like to have things done. The photos she sent every few days of our trip made us very comfortable with the level of care our boys were receiving and made it clear how much they enjoyed her company. I think it's safe to say they are still missing her! I highly recommend hiring Jennifer, and look forward to doing so again soon!”
About: I am an experienced pet sitter and parent to two cats, Bubba and Mama, and our sweet rescue dog, Daisy. I have experience with cats and dogs of all sizes and temperaments. My flexible WFH schedule enables me to be an attentive sitter and my camera roll is often full of pet photos so you will receive plenty of updates :). I work from home full-time with a flexible schedule so I can build my day around pet visits and check-ins, a perk my own pets continue to benefit from. I live in a pet-friendly community with plenty of green space and walking paths. My home has no stairs (perfect for short-legged or elderly pets) with direct access to open grass (we often have deer visitors!).
“Abby was absolutely amazing during her stay with our pets. She followed our instructions, was loving and engaging with them and sent pictures daily. She also anticipated needs, which was very helpful. She was trustworthy and reliable. I would recommend her in a heartbeat. We have already booked her again for regular walks”
About: I have owned many pets from dogs to cats to bunnies to even a snake. Throughout my life neighbors, friends, family, and others have consistently relied on me to watch and take care of their pets. I also volunteer at animals shelters in my free time and have fostered kittens in the past. I currently work part time with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I am happy to accommodate specific schedules. I am very respectful of other people’s spaces and only hope to make your pets as well taken care of as possible with the instructions given.
About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring pet sitter with about 6 years of occasional experience helping family, friends, and private clients with dog sitting and house sitting. I offer overnight house sitting and drop-in visits, making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m experienced with feeding routines, walks, basic grooming, and giving medications when needed. I’ve cared for a range of dogs, from small terriers to larger breeds like Labs and Staffordshire/pit bull mixes, and I’m comfortable adjusting to different energy levels and personalities. Along with pet care, I also help with light house tasks like bringing in mail, watering plants, and keeping things tidy while you’re away. I currently have a mini lop bunny at home, so I’m also familiar with small animal care and the extra gentleness and attention they need. Since I can’t have a dog of my own right now, I love being able to spend time with other people’s pets and give them attention and care while their owners are away. My schedule is flexible, but I do work a full-time Monday–Friday job. I’m remote two days a week, which gives me extra flexibility for drop-in visits, walks, and pet care during the workday when needed. For overnight stays, I can adjust my routine to stay in the home and make sure pets are kept on their normal schedule with consistent care and attention. I’m also available for morning, evening, and weekend care depending on what’s needed. I like to plan my time around the pet’s routine as much as possible so they feel comfortable, cared for, and not disrupted while their owners are away. When I’m caring for pets in your home, I always prioritize keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific house rules. I’m very mindful about safety. I make sure doors are secured, pets are supervised during walks, and nothing unsafe is left within reach. I also take care to keep the home clean and respectful, and I treat every home like it’s my own. If I’m doing overnight stays, I make sure pets feel comfortable and not alone, especially at night. I also stay attentive to any changes in behavior and communicate right away if anything seems off. With pets in general, I’m calm, patient, and detail-oriented, and I always aim to make sure both the pets and the home are well cared for while owners are away.
About: I am accepting new clients for housing sitting, drop in visits, and dog walking in New Jersey! Use code AMBIKS90872, for $20 off your first booking How does your fur baby relaxing in comfort while you are away from them sound? You’ve come to the right sitter! I am not your regular sitter trying to make a quick buck, I genuinely care about creating a safe and comfortable environment for dogs. I do not accept all requests and I request a meet and greet for all dogs older than 6 months. I carefully screen each dog to make sure they get along with me and the other dogs in the my home. I dogsit for the sheer enjoyment of taking care of your furry family member and take extra caution to not leave any room for error. I go to lengths to make myself somebody you can trust. I am a dog mom of two Cavapoodles (Yogi and Mini) and a Cavachon (Daisy) and they get along with pretty much any well mannered dog. They are sassy at first but after an hour or two, they play! I work from home. I would love to take care of your pup while at your home and/or drop in and walk your pup. I will take care of your dog as if they are my own! For the sake of safety of your pet, I do not take them to public dog parks to avoid a chance of another dog hurting them but I will however make sure he/she gets to play lots indoor/outdoors as well as walks. I make sure my dogs are having their routine of playtime, rest, and I stick to their food schedules and walk them daily. My goal is to have them happy and healthy upon your return. Your pet will never be left alone under my care. If I have to step out, my family member will be watching your pup. I am happy to provide photos and video to give you updates.

FAQs for House Sitting - Neshanic
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Neshanic on Rover is $53 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 2,837 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Neshanic. 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 Neshanic 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 Neshanic 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 Neshanic 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Neshanic. 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.
