Sevinc is absolute fantastic. She was extremely attentive and friendly to my cat Arthur. I definitely felt at ease, especially with this being my cat’s first time alone overnight. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable and trustworthy pet sitter.

Tyler is such a wonderful person, he's very patient and kind towards the dogs! Rescues can surprise you with new reactions, Tyler showed compassion and love and eventually the problem child learned to trust him. I will recommend Tyler to anyone who is looking for that extra help! Thank you!

About: I’ve always had a huge love for animals and have experience caring for many different types of pets, including dogs, rabbits, and birds. I also owned a German Shepherd, so I’m comfortable handling larger, high-energy dogs and understand the importance of patience, structure, and exercise. I previously worked as a vet tech, where I learned how to properly handle animals, recognize signs of stress or discomfort, and provide attentive care. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy during walks and visits. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel at ease while they’re away. I enjoy making pet care part of my daily routine because spending time with animals is something I genuinely love. I currently work during the weekdays, but I’m available most evenings as well as Thursdays and weekends for walks and drop-in visits. I like staying active, so dog walking fits naturally into my schedule, and I always make sure pets get attentive, reliable care and plenty of attention during visits. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. During walks and drop-in visits, I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, energy level, and needs. I make sure they get exercise, fresh water, attention, and a calm environment. With my previous vet tech experience, I’m also attentive to signs of stress or discomfort and always prioritize safety. I treat every pet with patience and care as if they were my own.

About: Hi! My name is Tefa, and I’m a loving and reliable pet caregiver originally from Colombia. I grew up surrounded by animals and have always had a deep connection with them—especially dogs and cats. Whether it’s walking, feeding, playing, or just keeping them company, I truly enjoy taking care of pets like they’re part of my own family. 🐾 I’m very responsible, punctual, and kind. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry friend, and I will make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently living in Wayne, NJ and am available in nearby areas. I have a flexible schedule and would love to help however I can—dog walking, drop-in visits, or just giving your pet some extra love and attention. Thank you for considering me! I can’t wait to meet your sweet pet! 💛 Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for pets—whether it’s for daily walks, drop-in visits, feeding, or playtime. I enjoy spending time outdoors and staying active, so dog walking fits perfectly into my routine. I also make sure to give each pet attention, affection, and care based on their individual needs. Pet care isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely love and enjoy being part of every day. I take care of the pet as the client needs it, the main thing is with love and respect, I give the food, the outings and I am aware of them

About: At my house, your pets will be family! I have about 16 years of experience with caring for cats and dogs, including my own. I look forward to meeting your pet :) I naturally build pet care into my daily routine with morning and evening visits for feeding, walks, and quality time. I keep my schedule organized so pets get consistent care, and I’m happy to accommodate midday visits when locations are nearby. I really enjoy making pet care a calm, dependable part of my day. I treat every pet like they’re my own. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their routine so pets feel comfortable and secure, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, or just their usual hangout spots. I keep the environment clean and calm, and I always make sure they get attention and affection. If pets are in my home, they’ll have a safe, relaxed space with lots of supervision, love, and consistency throughout the day.

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with animals and my hands-on care in different situations. I’ve been taking care of my own dogs, cats, and bunnies since I was six years old, so I understand daily routines, exercise needs, and how to keep pets happy and safe. I’ve also helped my grandmother care for cats through the Start Foundation, where I learned patience, gentle handling, and how to look after multiple animals at once. Because of this, I’m comfortable with pets of all ages—from energetic puppies and kittens who needs attention to older pets who require a calmer, more careful approach. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs, making sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’ve always had responsibilities taking care of animals at home. I’m used to planning my day around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure pets get the attention they need. I’m consistent and organized, so I can easily stick to a pet’s routine and follow any specific instructions. On a weekly basis, I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be reliable and available for regular visits or last-minute needs. Taking care of pets is something I genuinely enjoy, so I make it a priority to give them quality time, whether that’s exercise, play, or just keeping them company. For dog walking, I make sure each walk is safe, structured, and tailored to the dog’s energy level and needs. I follow your usual route or preferences, keep dogs securely leashed, and pay close attention to their behavior and surroundings. During walks, I allow time for exercise, bathroom breaks, and a positive interactions so they stay happy and engaged. For drop-in visits, I focus on maintaining your pet’s normal routine. This includes feeding, refreshing water, cleaning up after them, and spending quality time with play or companionship so they don’t feel lonely. I also keep an eye on their overall behavior and well-being, making sure everything seems normal while you’re away. For cats, I make sure they are safely in their home and always being careful about opening the door so they don't escape. I take my time till they get to know me. In both cases, I respect your home, follow all instructions carefully, and provide dependable, attentive care so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

Monica has done an amazing job with our 6-month old puppy, Bubba. He has a lot of energy and can sometimes be a handful but we know he is in good hands with Monica. She also takes incredible pictures of their walks/play and responds to any questions we have very quickly. In addition, she goes above and beyond to try and accommodate any last minute requests. We strongly recommend her!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Wayne

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Wayne on Rover is $24.42 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 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 July 2026, there are 25,210 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Wayne. 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 Wayne 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 Wayne 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 Wayne 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 Wayne. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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.
