About: I've taken care of dogs and cats my whole life! Looking for some pets to take care of in the Monmouth County area. I am a college student at Monmouth University but I am looking to help out any fur babies in my free time. I finished up my 4th season of soccer with Monmouth University and now with my added free time I would like to help out anyone in need. I live in a welcoming home with a lot of girls who love all types of animals. I am willing to make any accommodations to make your pets feel safe!

About: Hi! I'm Katie, a doggy daycare manager and dog lover! I’ve been walking/working with dogs for upwards of 10 years and I can’t get enough of it. Due to my 6 years of experience at a doggy daycare, I have had experience with many types of dogs- puppies, seniors, special needs, low confidence pups, and those with behavioral troubles. No matter what your dog needs, I can help! I can provide your pup with all the physical exercise they need, as I love to be active and outdoors. I have also trained my own dog and can help yours with basic obedience and leash skills. I can’t wait to meet your pup!! I have a varying schedule, but work 6.5 hour shifts, so I’m always free for at least half a day. I keep my availability up to date in order to best help you schedule with me. I have a friendly 3year old American Bully, Frank. If your pup stays at my home, they’ll have a furry friend and all the care they need!

“Heather has been an occasional caregiver for our puppy, Jerry and our cat, Lola for the last 4 months. She was the first person to puppy sit for Jerry after we got him, and we are so glad that we found her through Rover! Heather assists with last minute dog walks, holiday pet sitting for the cat, as well as drop-ins. She is consistently reliable, and we've always felt 100% comfortable leaving her to care for the pets. We are so happy that she lives just down the road and will definitely be using her for future pet sitting!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats and other furry friends for about 15 years. Helping neighbors, friends and family feed, walk and play with their pets while they’re away. I get done work around 3pm and am available for evening walks. I’m also available for stay over visits if the pup can go from 8:30am-3pm between walks Monday-Friday. I have a lovely quiet neighborhood to leash walk, close to the beach and I have a super cuddly older dog to keep them company. In your home I’ll care for your pets based on your expectations.

About: Hello! Thank you for checking out my profile! I live in Asbury Park, however, I’ll be dogsitting in Montclair from Dec. 25-31 so I now have my page set to Montclair to be available for holiday week dog walks. Since I was a child, I’ve taken care of dogs of every kinds, cats, turtles, fish, rabbits, hamsters, and chickens. I’m open to taking care of a snake but I might need a minute to get comfortable! I grew up with a sweet bichon frise and cocker spaniel. In 2016, I started house sitting and walking dogs for clients, neighbors, friends, and family. I have experience with all dogs- young, old, and special needs. I have given medication to cats and dogs for medical conditions and separation anxiety, in addition to providing extra love and care. I love animals and would be glad to help you have a wonderful vacation knowing your pets are well cared for! If you have any questions, feel free to be in touch. I’m available for dog walks, pet drop-ins, and housesitting in the pet parent’s home on weekdays and weekends. I taught special education for the last ten years but will not be returning this year, so my availability has opened up. A little more about my background: I earned a Bachelor of Science in Community Health Education with a concentration in Health Promotion and Culture and a Master of Education in Special Education. Before changing careers to teaching, I worked with veterans and at a free health clinic as the Community Health Education Coordinator. I can provide house sitting in your home and take care of your pet’s individual needs. At this time, I cannot board pets in mine. Unfortunately, my landlord won’t allow pets.

About: Hi, there! I’m Dani. l work full-time on a hybrid schedule (some remote days each week), but would love to help you take care of your fur babies in my spare time and when I’m working remotely. I have several years of experience petsitting and dog walking through family, friends, neighbors, and Rover. I am available for boarding, check-ins, and walks! Please refer to my Rover calendar for my booking availability. My daily routine nonetheless consists of pet care since I have pets of my own, so I am very familiar and comfortable with caring for animals around the clock 🫶🏼 You can rest assured that I will treat your pets and your home just as I would want mine to be treated. I’ll give lots of love and attention to your fur babies and be sure to send you plenty of cute photos!

About: I really adore making connections with animals. I’ve looked after friends and family’s pets many times, whether I dropped in to give some pets and treats or stayed a few nights to keep them company. Apart from my own cat Jade, there’s lots of strays in the area that my neighbors and I help feed and look after. I also live very close to the SPCA in case of emergencies. I love being active and having an excuse to take a walk or play with your loved ones. I work an 8am-4pm office job. I work from home every Thursday, and am off Saturdays and Sundays. Would be able to stop by after work, spend nights, go on walks and to parks, or just to chill and give your pet some company while you’re away! I’m very careful about having scraps and trash cleaned up to avoid any eating or swallowing. I don’t keep many hazardous plants or products in my home. I have many soft spaces for dogs or cats to lay or hide, very calm and quiet in the home and neighborhood as well. I’m always giving my cat attention, and check up on her paws, teeth, ears, and normal behavior every day to make sure she’s okay

About: As a life long dog owner, I know how important it is to have someone else in your circle to care for your pets. I have raised my own lab from a puppy and trained her to be the best house dog she can be! I love to be active and on the go! Senior dogs who want to soak up every moment this life has to offer is also in my wheel house. I'm currently working part time as a substitute teacher and I am done for the day around 2:30 pm. I will have evenings free for walks and boarding. I don't have children of my own, so offering services for pets is a way I can contribute to this new community I have found myself in. I have a fenced in yard and access to an open walking path within walking distance of my home. As a PE teacher, I am very active and love to stay moving after school. I have always believed a tired dog, is a happy dog :) I also have experience in nannying and professional organizing, so staying in a client's home is also something I am privy to.

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. I grew up on a farm. I know animals need excerise everyday as well as love and attention.

Right now I’m not working, I have plenty of time to help out with your pets routine. I’m available 7 days a week, if that changes I will make note of it on this profile. I can do house trips to take your dog for a walk and give some attention. I can stop in few times a day/night if your traveling for work or just vacation. Also if you would like I also go to parks and dog parks if your dog likes to socialize. I have a female beagle mix named Khloe that I adopted 3 years ago. Khloe is very good with dogs and cats, loves to play. I have a 3 year old beagle mix named Khloe. She loves to play with other dogs big or small. If your pet needs to be separated from other dogs incase of surgery’s or they don’t get along well with others I can also do that! I walk my Khloe 3x a day at least 2x a day a half to hour walk each time around my neighborhood. I also go to dog parks and parks to walk!

I am very much looking forward to helping out with your awesome doggo and giving him/her lots of love & attention!!!! I am new to professional dog walking, but very excited to get started. I understand introducing your dog to a new person is a very big deal, as a dog is a true member of the family. I would be more than happy to meet you for coffee, etc before my first visit so we can more properly introduce ourself. Thank you🐶 Availability: I have full availability on the weekdays and weekends! I work full time on a remote work schedule. I have full availability on weekends and weekday night to spend helping with your pet care in your absence!

I will care for your pet as I would want my pet cared for (in addition to how YOU want YOUR pet cared for!)

Regina was wonderful while we were away! She was so kind, communicative and patient with our cats, especially when one of them was hiding and the other was having some stomach issues. She kept us updated throughout the whole weekend and was so sweet and understanding about everything. She even called right away when she noticed a leak in our ceiling which we were incredibly grateful for. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was looking out for our cats but our home as well. We’re so appreciative of her and would absolutely recommend her ♥️

Absolutely amazing, super knowledgeable, immensely loving, sweet, and patient with our fur-babies!!! We have yet to have ever, even once, found such a kind, responsible, communicative and absolutely unparalleled person - let alone such a dynamic duo - as these two!!! My partner and I can both tell for 100% sure, from all of the gorgeous, super adorable, photos that Kathy and John take on each of their drop-ins and long walks with our two doggos, that they cannot wait for the next time that Kathy and John come to care for them 🥰😍🤩. Each and every visit, they go for long walks, smell all the sniffs in our neighborhood, play games inside and outside, and get all the food, water, love and attention that they need!! They are simply the best!!

This is my second time booking with Anahi, and it’s been another great experience. She is highly communicative, very loving and attentive to my cat, and from the pics I get, he is clearly in love with her. I had concerns about being away during the winter storm, and both Anahi’s and Purr’s safety with roads iced over. We worked it out, and all was well. Thank you so much, Anahi! We appreciate you!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Wanamassa

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Wanamassa is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $30 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 20,070 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Wanamassa. 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 Wanamassa. On Rover:

  • 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.
