“Shannon was very good. She asked whatever questions necessary to take good care of my pups. She was great, taking my request the same day I needed her. Quick responses and definitely reliable!!”
About: I've volunteered with an animal rescue for 8 years now. I know how to administer medicine, handle feral or very anxious furbabies, I'm fearless and very lovable. Animals are the humans most wonderful friends. I know basic dog training as well. I have open availability at this moment in time unless I have planned events. I'm planning to start school soon but most of my classes would be online so I will be home. If you have a certain routine or schedule with your babies I'll do my absolute best to follow in your foot steps for them. ❤️
“Katie is absolutely wonderful! She took amazing care of my kitties and kept me updated with lots of photos—not only of them but also of other areas of my home that she thoughtfully looked after. I felt completely at ease while I was away. I’ll definitely be using Katie again for future trips. Thank you so much, Katie!”
“Teagan was so great with our XL pup. She came multiple times a day to take care of/ play with him and sent lots of pictures. This was our first time using Rover and we would book her again in a heartbeat! Very reassuring to know that someone can take such good care of your pet when you aren’t able to bring them along.”
“Christina was excellent! She is extremely sweet and our fur babies loved having her care for them. She pays close addition to detail and was able to medicate our little boy with no issues. She comes highly recommended!”
“The best! The boys loved Julianna and warmed up to her right away! She is super experienced with all different dogs from all walks of life! Felt so comfortable with her watching over the boys! Would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a sitter.”
About: I have had dogs for my entire life and I love being around them. I can easily manage walking, feeding, and entertaining them as I do at home. I am working at the Crabs Claw this summer, but I am hoping to fill my off hours with as much work as possible. I will be able to walk whenever I am not working I can manage all dogs needs. Whether they need to be leased on a walk, played with in a fenced yard, or crated at the end.

“Amanda was amazing with our dogs, Milo and Lady. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away. You can tell she truly cares about animals and treats them like her own. Both dogs can be a bit of a handful, but Amanda handled everything with patience and ease. When we got home, they were happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of. She’s reliable, attentive, and goes above and beyond. It’s not easy trusting someone with your pets, but Amanda exceeded every expectation. We’d absolutely have her watch them again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog sitter.”
“This was our first time working with Ashley and it was easy and stress free! She came for a meet and greet and a followup before our first visit which was helpful for me to show everything. I received a ton of pictures and I could tell our large, rambunctious pups were happy!! We will definitely work with Ashley again!”

“I can’t recommend Taylor highly enough! She took wonderful care of my dog, cat, and even my hermit crabs while I was away. It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands. She kept me updated with regular messages and adorable photos, which really put my mind at ease. All of my pets were clearly happy, comfortable, and well looked after. It’s not easy finding someone you can fully trust with your animals, but Taylor is truly one of a kind. I’ll be booking her again!”
“Nicoletta is truly amazing and trusting when it came to watching my pup for a week long! My pup is very young and could be a bit hard to handle as he is very big but there was no problem whatsoever and he was very happy with nicoletta as a caretaker! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a sitter as Nicoletta is great and loving with dogs. I received updates and reviews of how the visits went and I could not be happier with how great everything went. I cannot thank her enough for being there and so kind to my Jay!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Seaside Heights on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,626 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Seaside Heights. 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 Seaside Heights 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.
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 Seaside Heights. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
