“Cynthia is the best! I am always 100% at ease knowing she’s caring for my dogs. The confidence I have in her abilities allows me to be stress free when I’m away from my dogs.”
“Alex was super communicative, left our house as we left it, and was VERY caring w our pets. Usually our dog has big anxiety and depression when we leave but we came home to a happy and well taken care of boy! Cannot recommend enough and will be booking other dates w them in the future!”
“Rachel was amazing. She was very accommodating and communicative. She treated our pets like her very own and she is definitely a dog lover. We will definitely hire her again. Thank you Rachel!!”
“Asia helped us out at the last minute and we had a great experience! She came over multiple times per day to take care of our dog while we were out of town and sent lots of pictures. We would definitely use her again!”
“Isabelle was a fantastic pet and home sitter while we were away. She sent us pictures regularly and updated us on anything out of the ordinary (mostly mischievous cat behavior lol). We felt confident in her ability to take care of our fur babes in every way and didn’t worry once while we were away for a week. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a commutative and dependable pet sitter!!!”
“"I cannot recommend highly enough! She took exceptional care of my dog, Maserati, while I was out of the country to Italy. We were not worried for his care one time. We were able to receive updates with photos, which gave me peace of mind. My dog was happy, healthy, and well-exercised when I returned. If you’re looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter, Sarah is by far best choice!"”
About: I have taken care of 10+ dogs that stayed in my home. I like to take them on walks and give them the attention they love they need! I am a college student who only has class three days a week. I like to go on walks and exercise. I do homework in my apartment for the most part. I have all the free time in the world and would love to take care of your pets for mutual companionship! I do not have a yard in my home but I have beautiful trails and green spaces where I would walk or run with your pup! I have a living room where the dog would be fed. In a clients home I would feed pets in the designated feeding area and would take them outside and spend time with them!
“Aubrey is just wonderful with our pups! From the first meet & greet, our Dobermans felt comfortable with her and liked her immediately. Aubrey is attentive, considerate and kind and we’re so glad we found her! Thank you Aubrey for giving Rusty & Roxie great care when we’re away. It’s comforting to know they’re in great hands!”
“Great experience! Our pups were happy and well cared for while we were away. We received daily pictures of what they were up to as well. Will definitely recommend Taylor!”
About: My love for animals started when I was 16 and I got my first dog who turned into our family dog, she is 16 now and I am 32! | love helping out friends, family, and neighbors with walks, feeding, and even bath time. I love spending time with furry ones and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for, so much I’ve volunteered at different shelters both in Mexico and in the US. Our family dog on my profile does not live with me, she lives with my parents. Thanks to my flexible job, pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I have plenty of free time. I'm flexible and available for last minute bookings, whether it's a quick walk, drop-in visit, or overnight stay. I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether in my home or yours, I follow all instructions to maintain their routine.
“Molly stayed in our house with our dog for a week during a trip. Updates with multiple pics and video almost every day. House seemed clean when we got back and she also signed for/brought in packages. Will use her again. She seemed to love our dog (and him her) even tho he’s picky with people and can be needy.”
“Erin is a fantastic dog and house sitter! We have had her stay with Bruce several times now. She is always communicative and professional and we have always felt comfortable leaving town knowing Bruce and our house will be well taken care of.”
“Zachary was an excellent dog/cat/house sitter for me. Professional. Excellent communicator and left my house cleaner than it was before my trip. I highly recommend him and will be booking him again!”
“Kayla was amazing! I reached out last minute when my previous sitter did not show up to our meet and greet. Kayla responded quickly and was so kind and willing to help. My pups can be skittish, and they immediately fell in love with Kayla. I hate leaving my dogs behind and I felt so reassured having Kayla in my home and taking care of them. She was great with them and was thorough and caring, with consistent communication!”
“Another great puppy care taking from Bridget for my fur baby. She is reliable, on time, flexible and provides updates throughout her stay. Can’t recommend her enough and will continue to ask for her service. Thanks Bridget!!”
“Great experience! Ryan was very kind, professional, and took great care of our dog for the weekend. It was so nice to leave our dog in her own home for the weekend, knowing she was in his care. House looked great and we will definitely be utilizing him again!”
“We have only amazing things to say about Ranae!! We got so many adorable pictures of our pup, Piper, enjoying the outdoors and hanging out in the sunshine, and Ranae was so communicative about how she was doing in our absence. She arrived on time at our home when we left, and she stayed until the moment we got home. Ranae also left our house IMMACULATE when she left. It was probably cleaner than when we left it, and we do not doubt that she took as much care with Piper as she did with our home. We will 150% be asking Ranae back to watch our pup and our home in the future!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Bridgeton
Over the years, I’ve had several great sitters who've grown up and moved on to big-girl jobs and busy lives. They still help out when they can, but their availability keeps getting more limited, so I’ve been looking for someone I can count on, and I’m so glad I found Heather. She house-sat for my two cats, Winston and Monkey, on short notice this weekend. I’m always a little nervous trying someone new, but she came over beforehand to meet the boys and immediately put me at ease. Winnie had his shots the day before I left, so I felt a little guilty leaving him. Heather’s updates were wonderful. She commented on all their weird little quirks, which told me they felt safe and comfortable enough with her to just be themselves. It meant so much to know they weren’t stressed while I was gone, and that both boys were happy and relaxed when I got home. Thank you, Heather! I’m already looking forward to having you back.
Bryant is a star house sitter! He's good with my dogs when I observe them together, and I know he's like that when I'm gone. I was 2,000 miles away, when Bryant notified my dogs were ill. He didn't hesitate to promptly call and take them to my vet. He kept me updated. My dogs are basically fine now. I hope to Use Bryant agaìǰ̣

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Bridgeton is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $49 per night. 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.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Bridgeton walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Bridgeton maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Bridgeton 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!
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Bridgeton. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
