Monica did several drop in visits for my 47lb yellow lab mix over the last few days. She went above and beyond and provided extra love to my dog. If you need a reliable, trustworthy, attention to detail pet sitter/walker, look no further!

About: My schedule’s open and flexible so I can truly meet the needs of each family I work with. Some days could start with an early-morning 🔆🐾 walk to get tails wagging, while others might be filled with midday check-ins, playtime in the yard, and even overnight 🐕💖 snuggles for pets who need extra company. I’m currently available every Saturday evening, with open availability Sunday through Tuesday, giving me plenty of time to dedicate to your pet and their unique routine. On my walks, I could work on leash skills and basic obedience to help your pup feel safe, confident and well-mannered. I also have experience caring for high-energy dogs who need extra exercise, as well as special-needs pets who may require a gentler pace and more patience. I’m a strong multitasker, attentive to detail, and always make time for excellent communication—sending daily updates, notes, and pictures so you’ll never have to wonder how your pet is doing. With First Aid knowledge and Emergency Preparedness, you can trust that your furry loved ones are in safe, capable hands every step of the way. My schedule is open and flexible to fit the needs of pet parents. Whether it’s early-morning 🐶 🐾 walks, midday drop-ins, or overnight care, I can adjust to your pet’s routine. I’m currently available and with plenty of time to dedicate, I’ll make sure your pets get the attention and care they deserve while working around your schedule. I always prioritize safety, trust, and comfort ☀️ in every service I provide. In a client’s home, I follow instructions carefully, keeping pets secure, happy, and at ease. When caring for pets in your home, I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment where they can relax and feel comfortable. I use owner-provided leashes for secure walks, monitor interactions closely, and follow all dietary or medical needs with precision—because your pet’s well-being is my top priority. With over 25 years of hands-on experience, I’ve cared for pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from energetic puppies 🐶 to senior companions. Throughout the years, I’ve shared my life with many wonderful dogs, including Standard Poodles, Shih Tzus, Dobermans, German Shepherds, Cocker Spaniels, Schnauzers, Labradors, and Beagles. I also bring a lifetime of cat care experience, having raised and loved breeds such as Persians, Himalayans, Torties, and American Shorthairs. 🐈‍⬛

About: I am a longtime pet owner and sitter who understands that all pets have their own personalities and adjust my care accordingly. Some dogs need energy and excitement! While others just want someone to pet them softly and tell them how good they are. Dogs have their own minds and body language, something I’m well versed in, and something I will use to make sure your dog is as comfortable and safe as they can. I’m currently freelancing, so I have a lot of free time to take care of your fur babies! I can work morning, noon, and nights, so whenever I am needed, I can be there! I have a large home with a big back yard for dogs to roam, and a lot of soft couches next to warm vents for cats to loaf on

About: Hi! My name is Joe Mattimoe, I’m a reliable dog walker/sitter based in beautiful Wall Township. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and over the years I’ve gained experience walking, caring for, and connecting with dogs of every breed and personality. I also have some hands-on training experience through Wild Rover K9 Services in Point Pleasant, Where I gained practical skills in handling, basic obedience, and canine behavior—allowing me to provide calm, structured, and enjoyable walks tailored to each dog. Whether your dog is energetic or prefers a gentle stroll, I offer reliable, caring service every time. Their safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, experienced, and truly passionate about dogs, I’d love to help! I make my own schedule each month and have flexibility since I am semi-retired. Once I book a dog service, my day/week/schedule revolves around that client. I have access to a fenced in yard a walk away from my home (mother-in-law) it is a good way to get another walk in and then play. I can crate, and follow owner’s directions. If your dog needs to sleep in the bed, they will. If they need to be crated or left to roam around, they will. We take care of a special needs dog who has a hard time jumping up to the bay window in our home. We take the first pillow of the couch, place it on the floor so he can jump up and get to it. We rearrange the entire living room for this little guy and he loves it. Just an example.

About: I've taken care of various types of pets like birds, cats, and dogs. My experience mainly comes from family and friend requests; however, I am very passionate about taking care of pets and do my best to make sure they are happy! I have a rescue dog who I have trained to not chew on shoes, do some tricks, be gentle when grabbing treats, and to wait when getting food. I'm currently enrolled in an in-person summer class which means that on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, I am only available after 1pm. I also work part-time over the weekends so my schedule varies. Despite this my schedule is pretty flexible and I am able to move around work hours to make sure your pets are well taken care of! :) While I do not offer boarding in my own home, I will make sure your pets are well cared for in the comfort of your home. Whether that includes indoor and outdoor playtime, walks, feeding, or extra attention and affection, I will make sure your pets receive the care they need. I love animals of all kinds and will treat your pets with patience, kindness, and responsibility. I will also keep your home clean and tidy while ensuring all instructions and routines are followed carefully.

About: I grew up with a standard poodle who stole my heart from the very beginning. He was truly my best friend and sparked my lifelong love of dogs. As an adult, our family had a Wheaten Terrier for 13½ years, and he was the most royal member of our household. I have a hybrid work schedule and get much of my exercise walking in between work sessions, so daily walks and outdoor time are a natural part of my routine. I’m also fairly flexible with my schedule, which allows me to give dogs the attention they deserve. Over the years, I’ve cared for many friends’ dogs and genuinely enjoy having them around, whether they’re calm companions or full of playful energy. Our home is a warm, relaxed environment where dogs are treated like part of the family. Your dog will be treated like part of our family. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as I work from home most days of the week and enjoy power walks in between work sessions. Walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship easily fit into my schedule. Since I work from home on my computer, pets are rarely left alone and can relax nearby while I work, giving them plenty of attention throughout the day. I follow each pet’s normal routine, providing walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention so they feel comfortable, safe, relaxed, and well cared for.

About: Greetings! As a dog owner for most of my life, until recently, I know that ensuring your Pup is well cared for can be the #1 biggest concern of your workday/holiday or any time you’re separated. If you're anything like me then you have undoubtedly spent THOUSANDS on making sure they receive only the best care. My doggy resume: Previous owner of Duke, my cairn terror, who was amazing with people, but terrible with other animals. He had to be leashed at all times and we had to stay clear of other dogs, squirrels and so on. Loved him. I also have experience with an American Pit Bull. She was so loving too and she happened to be deaf. I learned a lot loving and loving her. A few items we will touch base on before our meet and greet: 1. Is your dog a rescue? Do they potentially have an unfortunate history. If so, what is that history and let’s find a way to navigate it, if possible: 2. Are there any medications that will need to be administered? How and when? Do you have a method to do so (pill in food or treat). We don't want them missing anything important. 3. Dietary habits and needs while under my care. Besides time and amount, anything unusual? Or imperative? 4.How frequently does your dog tend to need outside trips? Are they house broken? Tibia okay if not, we all have to learn at some point. Is there a behavior I should be looking out for, it is out of scheduled time? 5. Let's talk walks: Leashes, harnesses, dog parks,other dogs and everything in-between. 6. A typical day in the life; on or off furniture, chewing shoes, rules, other behaviors, do's and dont's. We are open to it all. 7. While an emergency is unlikely, let's set a plan. I'm a Retired small business owner of 20 years. My days are open enough to to help with last minute, emergencies, planned and even separation anxiety pups. I can stay in if needed. If no schedule is given, I will typically follow the below plan: Walks will be first thing in the morning, lunch (12:30-1:30) and in the evening. Breaks needed is fine too! I'm available Monday through Sunday Open to Drop-off and pickup times, but not after 9pm. If you need some added flexibility we can definitely discuss that. I can come to your home for a pickup or drop-off. Our home is bright and airy and we have w big backyard. No rugs, no kids….My mom lives two blocks away with a big backyard with a pool, if your Pup likes the water. And orchard park dog park is a walk away if allowed. One of the biggest CONS of transitioning from a 60 hour work week for 20 years to sitting at home and walking with just the two of us. Because of this, I go on daily walks to the dog park, where we sit for awhile and watch them play. I'm hoping your dog will finally give me a reason to go into the dog park. If dog parks isn't your dogs thing, I can head to a more residential route. Don't worry, I'll be sure to send you a picture or video. And I will make sure to keep open communication, with updates. My days and evenings are open! Monday-Sunday. Nothing in my schedule lasts over 3 hours, so I am pretty much open for your Pup’s needs. I follow directions about the care of your dog to perfection. We have a big backyard, if granted by you, because there’s no fence. We have two bedrooms they can stay in, or they can stay in ours, or in a crate! We are so flexible. There is a dog park we can walk to if allowed. We also have access to my mother’s pool, if allowed, she is within walking distance and her backyard is fenced. Big area to run around and hang out. We have no kids, which makes it even easier!

About: I am a lifelong animal lover, and have over 10 years experience in petsitting! Every single animal I’ve gotten to know leaves a lasting impression on me. I have had dogs my entire life, and have been through every stage of life with them. As well as the extra care that comes with them — whether it be medicine, extra potty breaks, feeding routines, messes, or whatever they need. I know how important it is to show love and attention to our pets from puppy to senior. I carry that love and responsibility with me to new pets I meet and care for! I understand what a privilege it is to be trusted with them, and it’s something I really take to heart that clients have trusted me to do. Our “pets” are our family! My priority is making sure you and them feel comfortable and safe during the time I get to spend with them. Every pet has their own quirks and routines, and learning those things are one of the things I enjoy most about doing this. I have two dogs, Koda and Kavik! My sister takes over while I am away. They both have plenty of quirks, but it makes them who they are and I wouldn’t trade it for the world. I’ve spent time from a few days to a month with dogs and cats, ranging from a single pet to four of each! All different types, sizes, and ages. Each and every one of them were a pleasure and I appreciate the trust that comes with having someone look after them and stay in your home! Please reach out for any further details or questions! I’m happy to answer and want to make sure you are comfortable. I currently have plenty of open time to spend with your animals! I have my own dogs, but live with family who share the caretaking responsibilities. I keep a safe and clean environment for your pets to roam or crate them if needed. I have experience administering medication and taking care of dogs and cats that need special attention and care. I like to take detailed notes and pictures on how you prefer your pet to be taken care of to make sure I’m taking care of them and on top of your pets needs.

About: Need a responsible adult to take care of your fur babies? Going away for the weekend and need someone to feed the cats & check on the house? Heading out after work but need to let the dog out? (Cue the music...)That's me! I grew up with dogs and a hamster, then adopted 2 cats out of college. Now married with 2 children, we are sharing our lives and home with our elderly German-Shorthaired-Point (adopted in 2010). In addition, I have helped my neighbors by taking their dogs for walks and dropping in to feed their 3 cats while they were away for the weekend. Spending time with animals makes my heart happy. Please consider me to help care for your pet. I am currently offering drop-in visits or Dog-Walking. I have a full-time job September to June (Monday - Friday), so my availability is on the weekends. However, July & August, I am available 7 days a week. I am currently offering drop in visits or dog-walking. My goal is to follow all directions provided, especially in maintaining routines, ensuring safety through secured environments, and providing some time for companionship. Key tasks by the pet owner can include feeding, administering medication, exercising, and cleaning up any messes. I will also maintain communication with the pet owner with updates.

Caroline did a fantastic job caring for our animals! She was always on time and went above and beyond just checking in on them. She walked and tired out our very energetic, 2 year old Vizsla and made sure our outdoor cats were brought inside and out of the cold/snowy weather! We would absolutely use Caroline again.

This was Lisa's first drop-in visit with Bogey, who is a rescue , previously abused, and normally reserved around new people. He and Lisa got along very well. She took the time to meet Bogey in advance, arrived on time, and obviously cared about making him comfortable, something that is not easy to do. I was very pleased with the care Lisa gave him, and I will be scheduling her in the future. It is my hope that she will be my "go to" person when I need a dog sitter.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life, as I grew up with 2 dogs. I have 5+ year 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 am a Chef and animal lover. It is my passion to nourish & take care of people, and this certainly extends to our furry friends. I have an English Bulldog named Luca and he is extremely adored. I am very active. I go for 3 mile walks minimum daily, and I would love to bring your dogs along! I also enjoy time at home, where I can be a great companion for them there as well - playing or sharing space. Any of your pets special needs are safe with me, I will care for them as my own! I hope we can spend time together soon! I work at a bakery so I am out of work between 2-3:30 everyday at the latest. I am always off on Sundays and only work 4 days out of the week. I go into work between 6-9 am. I have a small fenced yard outside my apartment building. I am very close to a park I can take them to. I will allow animals on my couch, but of course I will set boundaries if this is not something you want to become a habit. I will give them as much play time and love as they please. I can also respect that some animals just want you to be there for company and I can do that as well.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I’ve raised my own pup since she was just 8 weeks old. Because of that, I’m really comfortable with routines, structure, and all the day-to-day things that help dogs feel secure. I’m not a professional trainer, but I’ve trained my family’s dogs over the years and I’m always happy to keep up with whatever training plan you already have in place. I’ve also had the incredible experience of fostering multiple dogs, which has deepened my love for animals and taught me how to adapt to different personalities and needs. I love getting dogs outside; beach walks, park trips, or just a good sniff-filled stroll around the block. And if your dog enjoys car rides, I’m completely comfortable driving them where they need to go. At the end of the day, I treat every dog like they’re my own: with patience, structure, and a whole lot of love. I’m currently in nursing school and Im a certified yoga instructor, but caring for my own dog is a built-in part of my day. No matter how busy things get, I make time for her walks, her routine, and her little moments of attention, and I bring that same consistency to any dog I’m watching. I’m a pretty active person by nature, so if I’m not in class or teaching a yoga session, I’m usually out getting some fresh air in some way, and having a dog with me just makes it better! Whether it’s a quick neighborhood stroll or a longer outing, I’m always happy to get a pup out and moving. In my home, dogs have access to a fully fenced yard where they can safely explore, play, and get their energy out. I always keep an eye on them during playtime so everything stays safe and comfortable! I’m totally fine handling feeding routines and using crates if that’s part of what your dog is used to, especially when I step out of the house. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick to whatever routines you already have in place. If your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing indoors, I’ll match that! I focus on making your pet feel secure and at ease in their own space, and I stay attentive to their needs so they have a calm and positive experience while you’re away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Point Pleasant Beach on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of June 2026, there are 2,880 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Point Pleasant Beach. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Point Pleasant Beach stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Point Pleasant Beach 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 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.

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 Point Pleasant Beach 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 Point Pleasant Beach. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 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.
