About: I’ve taken care of my neighbors dogs since I was 12. I will stay with the dogs as much as I can (I love dogs!). I take the dogs on plenty of walks and cuddle with them, sit outside, play with them, etc. I am adaptability to each dogs needs whether that be a lot of play time, administering medicine, changing diapers, and more individual needs. I mostly just love spending time with pups and helping to keep their routine consistent! Safety, communication, and reliability are my top priorities, and I'll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member, and I'm committed to providing loving, attentive care every step of the way. I look forward to meeting you and your pooch! I am currently unemployed, so I have plenty of time to prioritize your dog! I know how important it is for pet parents to trust someone to care for their pet, and I want to be a good support system to help. I have a fenced yard and one 36 lb dog to keep your pup company if they are friendly with other dogs! If I will be staying at your house, I am always considerate of keeping doors locked when I leave and keeping your pup safe. I also make sure to wash sheets and towels before I leave if I am staying overnight.
“Kristina was amazing! She kept us updated on Nike, Bandit, and Fin, and we came back to a super clean home with happy pups! She’s very responsible, she showed up to the meet and greet right on time, and the dogs took to her right away. We will absolutely be asking her to babysit again in the future.”
“I would leave more stars if I could. Our trip was enjoyed more because Sterlin is professional, caring and most importantly loving to our Cavilier. We left Sugar in great hands!!!!”
“Meghan was super flexible and provided great updates and photos. She was absolutely wonderful with my pup who takes a bit to warm up to new people. Kiki loved her and we will definitely book again!”
“Victoria arrived promptly and gave us continuous updates and pictures during her sit with Dexter. We would highly recommend Victoria to any other pet parents. We have already booked her for another visit!”
About: Growing up, it seemed every friend, cousin and neighbor I had had some form of fury friend to love, but I was never allowed to have my own. So, I am used to and love taking care of others’ fury friends! It’s like being a grand mom- you get to play and have fun with them (while being responsible of course) and then give them back. I enjoy being outside, so your friend will always get a nice, long walk with me! I also have experience volunteering at an animal shelter, though I was mostly taking care of the cats. I set my own schedule for work so I am very flexible and available. I will schedule my days around taking care of your friend I will make sure your friend is comfortable and given plenty of pets, food and water. Walks are never short (unless need be) and play time never ends
“I would recommend Alex for any of your pet sitting needs. We were away for two weeks and Alex took great care of our blind elderly dog who requires meds. She stayed at our house and kept everything in order and followed all the instructions. Kept in touch with us regularly so we didn’t have to worry. We came home to a happy and content dog!”
About: I have taken care of different types of animals for most of my life, including large and small dogs, cats, small pets like hamsters and rabbits, as well as chickens. I am experienced in dispensing medication, feeding, walking, and following special instructions. I'm currently working part time, but have plenty of time to care for pets. I can do drop in visits as well as staying overnight. Due to having many animals at home, I am not able to board in my own home. I am able to follow any directions you have to keep your pet safe, happy, and healthy! Just let me know what you need me to do!
About: I’ve watched multiple dogs at once all my life, making sure they get all the attention and love they need. I also love to just walk around so your babies will get the exercise they need. I’m free most hours Sunday through Thursday. Saturday and Friday get a little iffy but I’m sure I can work stuff out. I work part time so most of my day would be spent caring for your dogs. I will play with your dog walk them as long as they need. I’ll let them out and make sure they are as safe as they can be.
“This was our first time using Rover and we were a little apprehensive. But Jared came and met our dogs before staying and made us feel at ease. He sent us updates and did everything he said he would. We had a great experience and will be asking him to come back again!”
“Julia was absolutely wonderful with our dog! She was reliable, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and well cared for. Julia stayed overnight, sent frequent updates and photos, and made the entire experience completely stress-free for us. We came home to a very happy dog and could tell she had been in great hands. We highly recommend Julia to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable sitter. We would happily book her again!”
About: I have three of my own dogs at home!! Currently a student and looking to walk some dogs during the day in between and after classes!! Available to check in on dogs, walk dogs, dog sit as well if the timing is right! Just reach out and see if it will be a great fit!! Having dogs of my own I am aware and always ensure safety for everyone around while also making sure the dog is in a safe and trusted environment.
“Mary was a fantastic sitter. We have two very energetic retrievers and they were happy and calm when we got home, so I know they had plenty of playtime. Also, our house actually looked just like it had when we left. I appreciate the care Mary took of our dogs and our home. Definitely recommend”
“Cassie was wonderful and I know we’ll be calling her again soon! She house sat for 2 days. Stella is older and has some health issues. Cassie followed all of our feeding and walking directions, and let us know how she was doing throughout the day, so I didn’t worry. It was nice to be able to relax and enjoy our short vacation!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs around my neighborhood for my whole life, and I have two dogs of my own that I help take care of. I love dogs and have always enjoyed helping take care of them. I am currently living in Cape May, but I am available every week day to walk/ sit or take care of your dog. I am available Monday - Friday. I have a safe environment in my home with two other dogs. A fenced in yard with rocks in the back. I could host dogs in my home but I believe it would be better for me to come to the client.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Cape May Court House
Keira was absolutely wonderful! She stayed overnight with our dogs and took such great care of both them and our home. She sent us lots of pictures and updates, which we loved, and if she wasn’t sure about something, she always asked instead of just guessing, something I really appreciated. She took the dogs on lots of long walks, kept them entertained, and most importantly, made sure they were happy, loved, and well cared for while we were away. We came home to happy dogs and a house that had been very well taken care of. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. We would absolutely have Keira stay with them again and highly recommend her!

FAQs for House Sitting - Cape May Court House
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Cape May Court House on Rover is $108.28 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 300 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cape May Court House. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Cape May Court House 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 Cape May Court House 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 Cape May Court House 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cape May Court House. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
