About: I have experience caring for dogs from having my own dog in China and taking care of dogs for friends and family. Although my own dog is currently in China, caring for dogs has always been an important part of my life.I’m patient, responsible, and attentive to each dog’s individual personality and needs. I always follow the pet parent’s instructions and prioritize safety, comfort, and a positive experience for every dog I care for. I offer both dog walking and drop-in visits, including feeding, refreshing water, bathroom breaks, playtime, and companionship. I would be happy to provide reliable and caring pet care services to families in the Manalapan area. I have hands-on experience caring for my own dogs and cats, as well as pets belonging to friends and family. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s individual routine and personality. Whether it’s a walk, feeding, fresh water, playtime, or a drop-in visit, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I always put your pet’s safety and well-being first. I’m responsible, respectful, and dependable, and I carefully follow your instructions and your pet’s routine. I pay close attention to your pet during every walk or visit, make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, and keep their food, water, toys, and personal space organized. I’ll treat your pet and your home with care and keep you updated during each visit.

“You can write a review and never really convey how much someone means to your furry family unless it's detailed so I will write a detailed review. Paige is simply the best. Stop surfing right now. Choose Paige. Why should you believe me? I have had some issues with sitters in the past. Some have forgotten to clean the litter box. Some pretend to be at your home for the full 30 minutes. Some balk or push back. Not Paige. Our furry babies ARE our children. No one understood this better than Paige. She was literally Auntie Paige for the five days we were away. The cats took to her like a new mom. She talked with them. She lovingly made sure their illnesses were taken care of. She cleaned up kitty vomit with no complaints. She did the litter box diligently and thoroughly. She gave them pills and pets. She followed directions to the letter. She sent many pictures daily. She texted and answered every question. When issues arose she was concerned and caring. We knew we can trust Paige with our home and our babies. I'm pretty sure our cats were upset we even came home. Paige is warm, sweet, caring and thorough. We can not recommend booking Paige enough. Do it and you'll see. There's just no one comparable. Paige will be our go to for pet-sitting and we personally feel like we've made a friend. I know our cats not only made a friend, Paige is now family to them. She is AUNTIE PAIGE! The only thing we ask is not to book her when we need her because we will be jealous and sad. I never write reviews but we were so impressed that we felt the need to rave. Paige, we can't thank you enough. If there were infinite stars possible we'd give that. Stop reading and press the book button.”

I’m a college student with a part-time job, and I plan my schedule to make time for pet care. I’m available on Mondays after class, Thursdays after 3:00PM, and Saturday mornings.

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs my entire life, including my 10-year-old Black Lab and my American Pit Bull. I’ve helped train both dogs, understand different personalities and energy levels, and am comfortable handling daily walks, feeding, playtime, and basic training. I’m available most weekdays and weekends throughout the summer after June 25th. While working 2-3 days per week, I maintain a flexible schedule for walks and drop-in visits. Beginning September 1st, I’ll be commuting to college classes 3–4 days per week, but I’ll continue offering pet care services with availability before and after classes, as well as on weekends. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special instructions. Whether caring for pets in your home or outside, I help to provide a clean, secure, and loving environment while ensuring they receive plenty of attention, supervision, and affection. I also send regular updates so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I’ve never been without one if not two : ) I stop by the shelter often to see if they need help/donate. I absolutely love animals and will care for one of your pups like my own. I have flexibility for walks as I work from home. I do work full time with breaks in between and can help on weekends where I’ll have more availability. Whether I’m there for a drop in or walks just direct me how to best care for your pets (feed, crate, walk, length of walk, any special needs or attention..)

About: I've grown up with dogs since I was 10 and have experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs, sometimes two or three at a time! I’ve also looked after cats, so I’m comfortable with a variety of pet personalities and needs. With over 5 years of pet sitting experience, I’ve learned to be highly attentive to each pet’s unique routine, behavior, and comfort level. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and the joy I find in spending quality time with them! Whether it’s going on walks or just relaxing together, I always do my best to make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I work a 9–5, so my availability is mostly weekend centered with holiday exceptions! However, I am open to short term care after 5pm on weekdays and I’m happy to work with your schedule to make sure your pets are cared for properly! I follow each owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if applicable), and any specific care needs. I also make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision while keeping owners updated with messages and photos throughout the stay. My goal is to make pets feel safe, cared for, and comfortable while giving owners peace of mind while they’re away!

About: I have over two years of professional experience working with dogs and have been a dog owner for more than 15 years. I believe in allowing dogs to approach at their own pace and building trust through patience and understanding. I have experience caring for puppies as well as dogs with behavioral challenges. I am the owner of Outreach Dog Walking LLC. I’m a college student with flexible availability. The only times I’m unavailable are Tuesdays before 1 PM and Thursdays. I live at home, so overnights at my home aren’t an option, but I’m happy to stay overnight at your home if needed. I am capable of handling multi-dog families. Due to my background, I'm used to seeing sibling sets of 2-3, despite never personally owning more than 2 dogs at 1 time

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lovers with a deep passion of caring for pets of all kinds. Growing up surrounded by cats, dogs, and plenty of other furry (and not-so-furry) friends taught me how much love and care they deserve. My top priority is always making sure your pets are happy, healthy, and feeling loved. From feeding routines and walks to cuddle time (or just calm company for the more independent types), I make sure each pet feels comfortable and cared for according to their unique personality. I love keeping pets engaged with fun, stimulating activities. For cats, that might mean interactive toys, puzzle feeders, or laser play. For dogs, it’s usually games of fetch, tug-of-war, or a good old-fashioned frisbee toss. Even reptiles get the same thoughtful attention (maybe less cuddling, but plenty of care and respect!). Every pet deserves the best care possible, and that’s what I promise to provide. Whether you’re going away for a day or a week, I will treat your furry family member as if they were our own. I’d love to meet your pets and help you feel at ease while you’re away!

Chris was awesome! He was super communicative, followed our instructions exactly, and kept us updated the entire time. He went above and beyond for my two dogs and even fed our fish. This was our first time using an app to find someone to watch our dogs, and it was such a relief knowing someone local was taking great care of our pups while we were away. I honestly don't think we can go back to boarding after this experience. We'd recommend Chris 10/10!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Yorketown

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Yorketown is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $39 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 5,921 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Yorketown. 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 Yorketown. On Rover:

  • 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
