About: I became a dog mom 2 years ago but I’ve always been a dog and just animal lover my whole life and I’ve also volunteered in animal shelters. My fur baby, Kiera, is a pitbull that we rescued 2 years ago. and shes the biggest mush. I love her dearly and she makes every day so much brighter I’m currently home full-time with my daughter, so I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule to give your pets the attention and care they need. I’m available throughout the week and on weekends, and I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and lots of love and attention. I always show respect and responsibility when entering someone else’s home to care or walk their babies because I know I would like the same if someone was taking care of my fur baby

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and caring for them has always been second nature to me. Over the years, I’ve also dog‑sat for friends and family giving me experience with different breeds, personalities and routines. Whether your pup loves long walks, belly rubs or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy and loved while you’re away. Because I work from home, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, which means plenty of time for walks, play breaks, feeding and keeping an eye on your pet’s comfort. I build my work schedule around their needs so they get consistent attention and companionship instead of long stretches alone. Whether it’s a midday walk, extra snuggles or sticking to their usual routine, I’m able to give them steady, reliable care all week long. I have a quiet, calm and pet‑friendly home that’s perfect for animals who enjoy a peaceful environment. Since I don’t have any pets of my own, your dog gets my full attention and a stress‑free space with no competition for affection. I keep my home clean, safe and comfortable and I have a deck where pets can relax outside, enjoy some fresh air and soak up the sun.

“Wendy did a fabulous job watching our two fur babies! Being out of the country I'm always frightened the AC will stop working for some odd reason, but she assured me that the house remained cool the entire time. Located in the same town as me, she could come to the house quickly if needed. The house was clean and tidy just like we left it. We'll definitely use her on our next trip!”

About: I have 5 pets of my own; 3 dogs and 2 cats. They are my world, truly. I have had pets most of my life, and have watched other peoples pets previously. Comfortable giving meds, feeding, playing, snuggling, etc. Certified in Cat & Dog First Aid (American Red Cross). Have assisted with dog rescues & fosters. No matter the age or what special care is needed, I am on board. I can be available after 6pm on weekdays, flexible on weekends. I do work full time, so this will be a side job for me. At home we have an electric fence for the dogs, and our cats are strictly indoors. At a client’s home, I will provide all the necessary and recommended care asked from the parents. I am very respectful and responsible. You wouldn’t even know I was there; respecting others’ property is important for me. Remain clean, professional, and respectful.

About: Whether you need a daily companion or a longterm caregiver, I am delighted to make the most of my time with your pet. I most commonly schedule extended stays with my current clientele, but daily visits/ stays are certainly services I provide. My pet sitting experience dates back to my college years, but I've acquired a more consistent clientele list over the past 5-6 years. I can accommodate specialty dietary needs and administer medications. It is important to prioritize enrichment, such as walks and playtime, to keep your pet happy. I have a vehicle equipped for safe travel, in the event that a vet appointment is scheduled. I currently do not bring pets into my home. I've found that most animals, especially anxious or high-need animals, tend to thrive best in their own homes. I can maintain their regular routines while surrounded by the sights, sounds, and smells they are familiar with. I do free consultations to meet all clients and pets in order to get acquainted with their personalities and routines.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years, starting with my own dog during my teen years and continuing with my current dog, Jack — a 9‑year‑old German Shepherd/Chow Chow mix. I trained Jack through his puppy stage and still give him daily walks, playtime, and lots of love. Over the years, I’ve also become the go‑to dog caretaker for friends and family. Whether they’re heading out of town or just need someone to stop by for a playdate, I’m always happy to help. I treat every dog with the same patience, attention, and affection I give my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine because I’m currently in between jobs and have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for dogs. I’m typically available throughout the week during the day for walks, check‑ins, or just spending quality time with your pup. I love filling my days with dog care, so I’m flexible and happy to work around your schedule whenever possible. For drop‑in visits, I focus on making your dog feel comfortable and cared for in their own space. I follow your feeding and routine instructions closely, refresh water, give plenty of attention, and make sure they get the playtime or quiet time they prefer. I always take a gentle, reassuring approach so your pup feels safe while you’re away. For dog‑walking services, I make each walk enjoyable and stress‑free. I tailor the pace and route to your dog’s energy level and comfort, keep walks positive and safe, and make sure they get the exercise and stimulation they need. After each walk, I ensure they’re settled and content before I leave. My goal with both services is to provide warm, reliable care that keeps your dog happy and gives you peace of mind throughout the day.

About: I LOVE animals. I believe that caring for them is one of my purposes in life. I have been caring for foster/rescue animals over the last 5 years. I have my own cats and dogs and I have also also been fostering animals through rescues such as Eleventh Hour Rescue and Jersey Pit Rescue. I have worked with all kinds of temperaments and breeds, such as pibble & bully breeds, huskies, terriers, chihuahuas, newborn and young puppies, newborn and young kittens, adult and elderly aged cats, as well as both rescue cats and dogs with specific medical needs. I am currently open to working part-time as I teach during the school year. During the summer I can work flexibly, and during the school year I can help on evenings and weekends. I can additionally help with pet sitting or walking. I can also do house visits in general. I have a fence for my own pups and rescue animals. I can help with crating animals and keeping them safe in their homes. I am flexible and excited to help your family!

About: I have a flexible schedule that would allow me to come and drop by along with pet sitting. I have grown up with pets and had learned to take care after them. Personally I have watched family and friends animals while away. I have two cats and a dog of my own. I love all animals big and small. Having me watch over your pet will relieve your anxiety as you are away, your pet will be in good hands and taken care of. We all like to know our pets are okay without being there to watch them. I love animals and to take care of them for you when in need would be a pleasure. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions! I have the availability to come by after work during the week for pet care as well free weekends to visit or stay with pet(s) if necessary. I have two cats and a dog of my own that I care for daily and show lots of love to. With your pets I would show them the same care with respect to your home and rules if you have any for their care.

About: I've had and taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember! I am a veterinary technician and a puppy trainer for the Seeing Eye program at the University of Delaware! I have taken care of dogs from puppies to senior care and have experience with all breeds! I can train, medicate, or bathe your pets if needed and can take your pets to vet appointments. I have also taken care of cats and exotics! I have some classes for veterinary school but am mostly available most days of the week at most times! I can also work with your schedule to find times that work best! I value enrichment time for the pets, whether it be playing with them or treat puzzles and training! If staying with me for the day or for boarding, the pets go outside once an hour and can either sleep in a crate, on a bed, or in the bed if they prefer!

About: I started out helping friends and colleagues with their pets, and it quickly grew into caring for high-profile families/individuals who need someone they can trust. I know your time is valuable and your privacy maybe is non-negotiable. I am here to provide a seamless, stress-free experience for your dog, ensuring they get the exercise and care they need while you’re busy with your day. Why clients choose me: • Total Discretion: I have years of experience working with high-profile households. I value your privacy and maintain a low-profile, professional presence at all times if needed. • Reliable & Hands-On: You are getting one-on-one attention from someone who understands the demands of a busy lifestyle. Whether you are just running errands for the day, need some “you time”, family event or stuck at the office late - I am available to bring peace of mind so you know your dog(s) is taken care of. Your dog(s) will never be around any other dogs as your time is solely YOUR time. • Experience: I have worked with puppies, senior dogs, dogs with special diets, dogs needing medication & even dogs that tend to be dog-aggressive. I am focused on providing the best possible care for your dog. I’m happy to chat about how I can make your daily routine easier and ensure your pet is always in great hands. Because I work fully remotely, I have the kind of flexibility that most pet care providers don’t. While others are juggling multiple clients and strict appointment windows, I am able to provide a much more consistent, reliable presence for your pet with the proper communication. Since I am not tied to a traditional office or a rigid 9-to-5, I am able to: • Provide True Flexibility: I don’t have to rush through visits. If your dog needs extra time to warm up, a longer walk, or a mid-day play session, I have the time to make that happen. • Offer Peace of Mind: Being remote means I am always nearby. Last minute client at work? Deciding to go-to happy hour with some friends? I am just a text message away. *I do have 2 days a week where I have work meetings I need to attend so scheduling may need to work around that if services are needed during those times.” Since I believe dogs thrive in their own environment, I do not bring any dogs to my place of residence, If I am at a clients home, I set-up complimentary meet & greets prior to any service being provided so we can all get to know eachother & you are comfortable with me being in your home & around your pups

“Yaneira is great! She watched my kitty Sydney for over a week and did exactly what I asked for and more! I truly felt comfortable being on vacation knowing that Sydney was in Yaneira's hands. She is professional and loves animals, which was easy to tell from when she met Sydney. I will definitely be using Yaneira again the next time I need to go out of town. She is very responsible and committed :)”

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Pequannock

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Pequannock is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $23 and $33 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 25,081 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Pequannock. 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 Pequannock 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 Pequannock with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Pequannock. On Rover:

  • 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.

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.
