“Caroline did a great job taking care of our cat. She can be a little sassy but Caroline did a great job handling her. She was able to send us photos and updates and answered promptly, which put my mind at ease when we were traveling.”

About: Since I was 10 years old, I’ve always had a dog in my life. I love animals so much and I offer nothing but affection and care. I love cuddling with them too if they’re open to it. I’m in sales so I do work from home a lot. When I leave my house, it’s for a maximum of four hours. If you have a dog that is shy, I have a separate room for him/her. I have a 10 pound Shih Tzu living in our home. I adore him and he’s very friendly but if your dog does not like other dogs, it’s not a problem to keep them separate. I usually keep my dog on the main floor of the townhome. He has full access to the whole floor. If your dog is shy, I have a spare room on the lower level that the dog can stay in solo with a couch, dog bed, crate, and toys. I will only take 1 household at a time (2 dogs max) to ensure that your pup gets plenty of individual attention.
About: I have owned animals since the day I was born. My family even breed dogs for years. So I have trained and taken care of animals since forever. I know how to administer medications, eye drops, basic grooming, etc! Since I am a full time college student, my schedule is definitely slightly more tight. But just talk with me and I’m sure I can figure out times and everything so it all works out! In my clients home I will ensure the animal receives all the care and love it needs. I will do everything in my power to make sure the animal is comfortable.
About: If you're like me, pets are an extension of your family, so I understand how much trust goes into having a stranger care for your dogs and cats. With over 10 years of experience, I've handled everything from cleaning and giving medication to daily feeding routines and enriching playtime. Cats and dogs, all sizes and ages, are welcome. I can't wait to meet your furry family member(s). I recently graduated with my Master's degree. I'm enjoying my time off, and saving up for an apartment while job searching, so I am available all, day everyday. I provide care at your home, following your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, whether that entails feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or any medications. I make sure to keep their environment safe and secure (checking doors/gates/fences) and am more than happy to send updates or photos to you at your request so you know how your pet(s) are while you're away.

About: Hi! I’m Ashlee 🐾 I’m an ER nurse who loves animals and am looking to spend some of my days off caring for your furry family members! I have experience caring for senior and special-needs pets and understand that every animal has their own routines, quirks, and needs. I recently said goodbye to my 16-year-old Shih Tzu, who was a huge part of my life, so I know firsthand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I’m especially comfortable with older pets, medications, mobility issues, and pets who need a little extra patience and attention. As a nurse, I’m responsible, attentive, and comfortable staying calm when something unexpected happens. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. ❤️ I’d love the opportunity to get to know your pets and help give you peace of mind while you’re away! I am currently finishing up nursing school and only have to be at the hospital twice a week! That schedule varies but I have plenty of time the rest of the week to take care of your pups :) I have experience with dogs of all breeds and sizes. I don’t discriminate dogs and love a small cuddle pup or a big dog that needs lots of exercise and stimulation! My services do not include coming to my house since I don’t have a fenced in yard but I have been trusted to house sit and pet sit for many friends and extended family since I was in high school. Trust, respect & safety is my number one priority for your home and your pup! I also watch two dogs, a bunny and chickens with special needs regularly.
“Lisa was amazing!! We had a last minute situation and she was able to quickly come meet our dog the day before. She walked him for us and gave us updates with photos! Highly recommend!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life, as I grew up with 2 dogs. I have 5+ years of experience in housesitting, walks and playdates. I also have experience with reactive dogs, where I can keep them safe during walks with patience. I currently work in a mostly freelance and remote environment. I am flexible and I communicate well about my schedule for accommodating your fur friends. I treat every pet at home as if it were my own. I make sure to follow instructions precisely and with care. I make sure to double check that fences are closed and doors are locked. Pet safety is a top priority. I have a lot of love for what I do and that shows in my work.
About: I've been an active dogsitter for nearly 15 years in the DC metro area. Specializing in older pets w/ health needs. My family has had dogs my entire life, so I have 4 decades worth of experience with dogs. Since I don't have a dog of my own (despite being my parents' dog preferred human and living with 2 King Charles Spaniels), I will treat yours like family. I'm a huge dog lover! I currently live in a house with 2 King Charles and 1 cat (acts like a dog). We have a fenced in backyard and for smaller dogs, a doggie door. For over a decade, I've been a trusted dogsitter for a handful of dogs in Washington, DC- references available upon request! Additionally, I have fostered three dogs from Laila's Legacy- 2 pitties and 1 Doberman. As a volunteer, I drove dogs to Adoption Events, served as a Handler, and helped bring pups to vet appointments. All dogs are great, especially the ones who like to snuggle. I've recently moved to New Jersey and am currently seeking full time employment. Until then, if your dog is okay with other animals, they can come stay with me or I'd be happy to dogsit in your home.
About: Hi! My name is Rachel and I am the biggest dog lover. I have a yorkie, Layla who I love very much. I would love to meet new dogs and care for them!

My goal is to make your dog as happy as it can be, keeping them well fed, hydrated, and active through walks. Having a dog myself made me fall even more in love with dogs and I can’t wait to meet more dogs and care for them! :) I am currently working part time in the mornings and early afternoons which makes me available to care for your pet in the middle of the afternoon and evenings! I take care of the pets by listening to what the owner wants for their pet. I make sure the pets are comfortable where they are and I am gentle. I understand some dogs are shy and I come into every home aware of that and I try to let the dogs slowly warm up to me. I make them feel as safe and cared for as possible. Feeding and walking is as consistent as the owner wants it :)

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Oceanport is $33 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $67 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 November 2026, there are 23,015 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Oceanport. 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 Oceanport 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 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 Meet & Greet.
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 Oceanport with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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 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.
