“Kathryn was awesome. She took great care of my geriatric dogs and I never worried about them when she was with them. We have used her about 8 times now and will continue booking her.”

“Melissa was flexible with my dogs’ early morning breakfast schedule! Such a lifesaver. She also wore out my young Lab so I didn’t have to worry about him while on vacation. Melissa was great and I will use her again!”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for shy, timid pets who need gentle reassurance. I’ve fostered 60+ rescue dogs and have years of experience helping anxious pups feel safe, calm, and cared for. My focus is overnight, in-home sitting so your pets can stay in their normal routine—sleeping in their own beds, in the place they feel most comfortable (no boarding stress). I am happy to send photos and updates of your pets while you're away so you can enjoy your travels knowing they are safe, happy, and receiving plenty of love. While you’re away, I also treat your home with respect and care: bringing in mail/packages, rotating lights, watering plants, and keeping things tidy. Expect reliable communication, photo updates, and calm, steady care—walks, playtime, enrichment, snuggles, and support for separation anxiety/routines. I work full time for a nonprofit with some remote work flexibly as needed. My schedule is an 8 hr work day and start and end times can be adjusted as needed. I am experienced with crate training, basic obedience, special diets, walking, mental stimulation and calming techniques and lots of love, affection and snuggles. Services can be modified for the specific needs of your dog(s) or cat(s).

About: I've had cats my whole life and a dog for a little over 4 years. I love animals and will play with and hike with your dog (or cat) anytime! I'm familiar with prong collars, whistles and clickers and will use training techniques laid out by you for consistency I spend a lot of time with my animals daily, depending on my tasks, but their health and joy is a priority for me. I try to ensure I spend an hour focused on them each, every day. I'll follow any training requested, and use your queues and signals. I am familiar with prong collars, muzzles and most leash types and have even walked cats before. We'll have adventures and stay healthy together.

About: Most of my experience comes from house/pet sitting in the past in addition to caring for my own pets over the years. My personal experience is with my cats at home and the family dog. In addition to pet sitting, in the past, I have provided daily walks as well as daily visits. I briefly worked at an animal shelter where I administered medication to the cats. I have worked with senior dogs and puppies as well as cats. Now that my children are older I would like to take my skills and use them by providing daily visits and/or walks during the week to generate a side income. Pet care is already a natural part of my day. My own dog keeps me on a regular schedule of walks, feeding, and playtime, so caring for animals is something I do every day rather than something I fit in. I keep my schedule flexible so I can give each pet I watch the time and attention they need, whether that’s a midday walk, a regular feeding routine, or extra time for play and company When I care for pets in a client’s home, I follow the specific guidelines their owner has given me, and I treat them the way I’d want someone to treat my own pets or children. It’s important to me that my work is more than a transaction and that everyone feels comfortable and safe.

About: I have been around animals since I was very young and loved every minute of it. I am lucky to have over 7 years with my Belgian Malinois, Cooper, in my life! Nothing bring me more joy than taking care of, feeding, walking, playing, and simply sharing the same space of all sorts of pets! I have many years experience taking care of Dogs, Cats, Birds, and Small Rodents and look forward to meeting all of your fuzzy family members! I currently work from home where I set my own hours so I am flexible on both Weekdays and Weekends and can be available early morning throughout the afternoon. I will follow all of your current routines and guidelines for all of your pets to make sure everyone is happy and healthy. I require a meet and greet with the pet beforehand to make sure we are a good fit, I would not want your precious pet to be stressed or anxious!

About: I have taken care of close friends and families pets for years and I have decided to expand and see if anyone else needs care for their animals! I have plenty of experience working with animals. I started out as a farm aid at Turtleback zoo a couple years ago and left to go work with marine mammals in Florida. When I came back to NJ I went to Cape May and worked as a full time seasonal animal keeper. After my 6 months were up I went back to Turtleback zoo as a Relief Keeper. I left the zoo field December 2021 and started working part time at a local vet clinic where I work with all size dogs and cats. I know how to give medications also if your dog or cat have any special needs! I currently work full time, first shift for a laboratory. I also work part time at a vets office but when I am dog sitting I do not just do that your pets have more of my attention and are my priority. If I were to stay at your house I can walk your dog around your neighborhood or take them on local hiking trails! Whatever works best! I am here to care for your animals just as I would my own. My dogs Cooper and Ginger are very spoiled and I can guarantee yours will be also! Depending on the needs of your pet will be the deciding factor of our daily routine. We can talk about that more in details if you decide to message me! I have two mini dachshunds that are friendly and love to walk/hike! If your dog is friendly and adventurous I would bring them along for the fun!

About: Hello! I have a lifelong passion for caring for animals. From a young age, I've been surrounded by pet bunnies, cats, dogs and lizards.

It's not just me though, my boyfriend, Gill A. also joins me on these sits, so your furry friend gets double the love! As dedicated pet caregivers, we understand certain pets unique needs and preferences. Whether providing nourishing meals, engaging in interactive play sessions, or offering gentle companionship and cuddles! If your pet happens to be a lizard, maybe no cuddling, but we will make sure they are well fed and happy! In addition to essential care tasks, we both offer various fun activities, specifically to cats and dogs so that they are entertained and mentally stimulated. This may include interactive toy play, puzzle feeders, and laser point games. For dogs, this would include playing some tug of war, fetch, or frisbee! Every pet deserves the best care possible, and we are here to provide just that. If you need caring and responsible sitters who will treat your furry friend like family, please don't hesitate to reach out. We would be honored to care for your beloved furry family member! Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, as I am a full-time student with flexibility in the afternoons, starting from 3 PM. This allows me to dedicate focused time and attention to pets, ensuring they receive the care, exercise, and companionship they deserve For in-home pet care, we prioritize creating a safe, comfortable environment for pets. This includes regular feeding, providing fresh water, administering medications if needed, and ensuring plenty of playtime and affection. Additionally, we maintain cleanliness by cleaning litter boxes, disposing of waste, and keeping living areas tidy. We also offer personalized attention and follow the owner's specific care instructions to ensure their pet's well-being and happiness.

About: I’ve taken care of several different dog breeds since the age of 8. Mostly larger breeds ranging from a golden retriever to an Alaskan Malimute. My care ranges from basic walking , bathing, and grooming, down to medication management and insulin shots. Currently I’m looking for another part time job, but at the moment I’m eager to get started working with your pets full time. When I do secure employment it will just be part time in the mornings. With the utmost respect. Our pets are like our children and I would want someone to handle mine with care, compassion, and respect and I plan to do the same for you.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Sandyston Township

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 1,048 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Sandyston Township. 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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Sandyston Township. 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.

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.

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.
