Adrienne is someone who genuinely cares about your pet. Choosing her to watch my cat while I was away for 10 days was the perfect choice. I couldn’t be any happier. Between the updates, the photos, and her willingness to go above and beyond, we are so thankful we found her! Thank you Adrienne!!!!

About: I have had dogs all my life. I have experience with working breeds such as german shepherds and corgis. I have experience taking care of exotic animals as well such as rabbits and frogs. I have experience with cats of all different sizes and ages. I have experience with dogs of all different sizes and ages as well. I love animals and will treat your animals just like family. I am currently transitioning to making this my full time job so I am able to do this any day and anytime of the week. I ensure all pets needs are met whether it be making sure they are taking a specific medication or something as simple as making sure to take them out every couple of hours. I want to make sure that any pet in my care is being well taken care of.

About: I have experience working with dogs of all ages at a shelter, I’m good with all ages and work with the dogs at their comfort versus having them conform to what I want them to do. I’ve administered medication to dogs both older and younger and I’m willing to do whatever it takes to make you feel at ease about your dog being left with me. I am currently in school from 830-3 I can provide care from 330 and beyond depending on what you need. Weekends I am home all day and if your dog enjoys it I can take them hiking to the park ext. As I do live in an apartment that isn’t fenced in I can’t let them run around In a yard, but I have plenty of space to walk dogs or run with them if they like as I am very active. If I am in your home I will make sure your dog feels as safe as possible with me being there as well as providing you comfort.

About: Been around animals all my life, they care and love i have and the joy it brings is out of this world. Also as i help care for my grandmom and she has had pets growing up. I know it will bring her joy and will take up her time as she sits in the house, if we dont go out for the day. As i work on the week days, i am availble (if nothing pops up) on the weekends, like a friday night untill sunday night if that will work for anybody. And also i do work in the school system so having weeks off for or a couple days off can change my schedule but for now, weekends are best. If pets need care i am here to learn and help, i do offer a yard (sadly is not fenced) but if on a leash your pet will be taken very care of and we be shown love and care.

About: When my dog was a puppy I’d train him, but made sure it was like a game. He now sits politely for scratches and food. I do have a part time job at the moment but I can provide pet care just about any time and day with advance notice. I have experience with crate training, preparing treat toys, grooming (such as brushing, trim, ear cleaning, dental) and I will follow feeding instructions as needed.

About: have 6 months to a year of hands-on experience as a kennel attendant and dog handler, working with dogs of many sizes, energy levels, and temperaments. I’ve handled strong and high-drive breeds such as Pit Bulls, German Shepherds, and Dobermans, and I’m confident staying calm and in control in different situations. I do well with reinforcing basic commands like sit, stay, and leash manners, and I’m especially good with puppies, helping them learn structure, routine, and positive behaviors early on. I’m patient, observant, and always focused on the dog’s comfort and safety. I’m still learning and growing in my skills, but I take pride in building trust, reading body language, and providing consistent, respectful care for every dog. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I’m fully open on Thursdays and Sundays, which allows me to dedicate focused time to walks, drop-ins, and extended care. On Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays, I typically finish work around 2–3 PM, giving me good afternoon and evening availability. On Fridays and Saturdays, I’m usually available after around 4 PM. Because of this schedule, I’m able to be consistent, punctual, and flexible, whether it’s daily walks, check-ins, or longer visits. I plan my time carefully to make sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Safety, trust, and comfort are always my top priorities when caring for pets. In my home, I provide a calm, structured environment with a securely fenced yard for safe outdoor time and exercise. I maintain routines and reinforce basic training every other day to keep dogs mentally engaged and well-behaved.

About: I have always been drawn to animals of all kinds. I have deep passion in being the animals voice. In my life I have rescued many animals because they had no home to feel safe. I am a deep lover for animals and currently right now I recently enrolled to go back to school so I have additional time to make some extra income for my household. Investing time in what I love most which is animals. In my home I currently have 6 rescued cats. My fur babies have more toys then you can imagine along with multiple boxes and many place to feel secure and safe. I do have many harness because my cats love walks as well as leashes. We have play time for stimulation as well as treats and food. I recognize communication from my fur babies and follow cues to male sure they are comfortable, healthy and happy. I am a current owner of 5 rescues. I volunteer my time TNR when I have availability and time to do so. It’s extremely vital I care for my pets like I do other people treat their children. My fur babies have a routine and are extremely healthy and happy and spoiled. I personally groom my animals every week.

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 Absecon 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 Absecon 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 Absecon 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 Absecon. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
