About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 13. I currently have a mini goldeen doodle who I have trained myself! He loves all his furry friends and loves giving kisses as well!

If you need any extra hours I can make arrangements with an extra fee! I have a decently sized apartment that has lots of room to play. Hulk loves to share all his toys and play with his furry friends! I have a gated area for my kitchen as well!
“My animals loved Hannah! My dogs have a lot of energy and she played with them and threw the ball for a long time! She even noticed that my one dog had a health concern and asked me if I wanted her to do something for it so I had Hannah give my dog some medicine and put a cone on her. She went above and beyond! I have used Hannah to watch my dogs in the past and would definitely trust her with my pets again in the future! Even my cat loves her and he rarely warms up to new people!”

About: I am a part time dog groomer and need another part time dog gig🐾I would love to keep your pup company while you are away! 😊 I work part-time so have plenty of time to fit you into my day!

“My family and I went on a trip for 3 days and had to leave our Bulldog, Bella home with my Mother who is unable to fully care for her. I booked Ana to drop in several times per day to walk Bella and potentially clean up any accidents inside. What can I say? Ana is the best! She was helpful during the booking process and came by the house a week before we left to meet Bella. While we were away, in true Bulldog fashion, Bella wasn't the most cooperative pup in the world. She made many of mess in the house but Ana took time to clean up and pretty quickly they became buddies. She was very respectful of our home and gave us every bit of time that we booked her for. We will DEFINITELY be using her in the future! Thanks again Ana for everything!”
About: Hi! I'm Delicia, a passionate Animal Science student at Rutgers with hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals—including dogs, cats, birds, and other small mammals. I genuinely love every pet I meet and take pride in learning their unique personalities and needs. I personally have grown up with and trained pets since I was in highschool. You can count on me to be reliable, attentive, and gentle. Whether it's daily care, walks, or extra cuddles, I’m here to make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. If you're interested in discussing your pet care needs further or would like to schedule a meet-and-greet, feel free to send me a message. I'd love to chat with you and provide the peace of mind you need knowing your pets are in good hands. I'm currently a full - time student at Rutgers. My classes are in the morning and middle of the day but available any time after or between. I also have a lot of flexibility during the weekend. I'm currently at an apartment so I have room for a dog or cat. They're apartments that Rutgers allow service dogs to live. They have a dog park built and it's friendly for dogs. I have a go - to park nearby in a very safe community .
About: My family once had a dog but he sadly passed away so it increased my passion for pets. I've had experience taking care of my Auntie's dog for 4 years and when I went to college I didn't see him as much but I came back and he remembered me as if no time past. I've constantly been around pets my whole life and have taken care of other peoples pets in emergency situations countless times. I work weekdays (Mon-Thurs) and I am in school but Friday into the weekends I don't do much so the weekend would be a perfect time to request me to care for a pet. Feel free to take a break and go on a weekend dinner date as your pet is left in good hands. I live on a college campus with vigilant security and cameras at every angle in my building but I am not prohibited to care for animals in my space. I am capable of defending myself and protecting the well being of animals at a clients space.
About: I have been caring for pets for 25 years. In the past 5 years I have been employed as a groomer apprentice and a dog walker and pet sitter. This past year I decided to start my own small business in the pet Care industry. I am an intuitive and reliable pet caregiver. I have worked with reactive dogs, senior dogs and puppies leash training. I have administered medications, injectables and infusions. My dream is to have a thriving business doing what I love most --caring for animals! I already take care of animals on a daily basis. I have a few clients already and I have my own two small friendly dogs (Morkie and Maltese) that I take care of, so I would say I take precautions and take steps to care for animals without much thought but just as an innate response from living with and around animals. I have a fenced in yard and I have two dogs if your pet needs company. If your pet does not do well with other animals I have gates in my house where I can keep everybody separate and safe if needed. I will say my home environment is more for socializing a dog to be safe with kids and other dogs. When visiting your home I make sure waters are refreshed, accidents cleaned up, litter scooped, pets are fed, walked, played with and worn out, and in a calm and safe environment before I leave. I will always take extra initiative whether it be bringing mail or a package inside, putting garbage and recycling bins back in, or locking a door that needs to be locked when you are away so you can know everything is taken care of.

“Laraine was extremely accommodating for my fur child! I booked in home visits during a busy loaded work week and she made sure my pups visits were comfortable from HOME!

About: I have been petsitting for over 10 years now! I absolutely love animals, and I see it as a real gift to care for other people’s beloved companions. I’ve had the pleasure of sitting for both cats and dogs, and earlier this year I also ran a small farm on my own for three weeks, caring for goats and chickens. I pride myself on being responsible, reliable, and deeply caring; maintaining structure and routine for animals while also offering plenty of affection, cuddles, and attention. I’m really looking forward to meeting you and caring for your home and pets! I am a writer who uses petsitting opportunities to focus on my writing! I also teach yoga & playwriting and host events! My weekly routine is pretty flexible in many ways so if you have a unique time or petsitting request, please reach out! I take being in other people's homes to be a matter of great responsibility and care. I have had the honor of pet sitting all over the world now, and I really treat other people's homes as my home when I am there. I am very clean and attentive to details. I am also the type of person to go for long walks, meditate and do yoga. I don't drink, and enjoy the simple things in life. If you have a dog that love walks, we will be best friends.
“Tiaesha is outstanding. Her attentiveness, thoughtfulness, and care for our pups provided the piece of mind that all dog owners seek when looking for a dog-walker or dog-sitter. We can’t imagine using anyone else.”
About: I’ve loved animals ever since I can remember. From hamsters, dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, geckos, etc. I have had them all! I am always a reliable source for pet care when friends and neighbors are away. I currently work weekends and am attending school in the evenings a few days a week- so I have all day to play and care for your fur babies! I have a fenced in yard and two cats who are accepting of other animals. I can crate or provide a comfy space for your pets so they feel pampered and safe!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - New Brunswick
Fantastic sitter! After our previous arrangements fell through a week before our family trip we reached out to her for drop-ins regarding our 17 year old Shih Tzu, who has been reactive to strangers in the past. For it being our first time using Rover we were blessed to find Hadija, who has been incredibly thoughtful, patient and communicative during a week of drop-ins with our old boy. We could not recommend her enough and we thank her again for all her help!
This is our second time doing a pretty extensive request with Yan, multiple stops a day for various days, and just like last time I really enjoyed having Yan as our sitter! Jack has warmed up to her, she has good communication, and I look forward to the next time she can dog sit for us!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in New Brunswick is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $10 and $24 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 15,255 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across New Brunswick. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 New Brunswick 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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
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.

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 , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
