“Thanks to Greg we were finally able to go away without our needy pets. We were able to relax because Greg did a great job of connecting with our pets and communicating with us. He followed all of our detailed instructions and cleaned up like he was never here. We hope to hire Greg again for more housesitting. His care is much appreciated.”
“Christina’s been great. I’ve used her twice so far and will continue to use her for over night stays. She has quickly bonded with my anxious dog. She handles all my dogs daily needs, and leaves my apartment clean and neat. Would definitely recommend”
“Kathryn was awesome and very professional. She kept me updated throughout the day and made me feel very much at ease. Katie took excellent care of my dog (Ruben). I would highly recommend Kathryn!”
About: I've grown up with both dogs and cats and have taken care of them for as long as I can remember. While I've mostly worked with medium to large sized dogs, small dogs and cats are great as well and I have experience playing, walking, feeding, and bathing animals in all walks of life. I work part-time while playing softball over the span of the summer, but I have plenty of time during the week to care for your pets. I love all animals and will treat yours with as much respect as I do my own, while also being sure to cater to your specific pet's needs.
About: I’ve been pet-sitting since I was 15. I’ve dealt with a range of task when it comes to pets, and have cared for animals big to small and young to old. I am extremely comfortable with pets and even have a dog and cat of my own! Since I have pets of my own, I frequently find myself walking my dog or spending one on one time with my cat. Pet care is a natural part of my day to day life! I love to give pets and make a pet feel cared for and safe. A calm environment is sometimes all an animal needs to feel loved!
“What can I say? I was nervous and worried to leave my hobby farm for a work trip. I made instruction sheets, took pictures, portioned food and stressed when I got into my UBER. Anthony walked into the home and respected my dogs, was patient with them, gave them the attention they needed and in the time they were ready for it, sent me pictures, gave me updates, asked the right questions, looked after the chickens, goats, turkey, and ducks. He made a stressful trip so much better by a simple message. When I arrived home, I had six tired pups, house was clean, Anthony greeted us with a smile and lots of stories. Anthony went above and beyond. He exceeded my expectations and he embraced the property and fur/feathered babies like they were his. I will always ask him first before looking for anyone else. Thank you Anthony for caring about my family as much as you did. We will see you soon. To all you folks out there needing a sitter/walker, I come first for reservations (LOL) and if he has a time slot for you…… take it. He is one of a kind.”
“Angela did a great job watching my dog while I was away. My dog has some special needs for prescriptions and Angela was good about making sure he got what he needed. She started at the house and when I got home everything was as I had left it. I am really appreciate being able to trust having someone like Angela come over to take care of my dog.”
About: I have no fear of any breeds large or small as I grew up around dogs and eventually having my own 2 big boys. I have experience training in dog walking. I have raised one of my dogs since he as puppy, I have experience in teaching the basic commands and potty training. I work from home.There is only one day where I would not be available. I am perfectly happy to accommodate my schedule for any emergencies! I have 2 American bully/pitbull mixes who receive the most care and love. When it comes to dog walking, I believe in letting dogs sniff around and take their time. I will make sure to to cater to your instructions.
“One of the most important things when our family goes away is making sure we have a caring, responsible sitter for our dog, Bucky. Alyssa is amazing! We can go away and be certain that Bucky will be loved and cared for! We highly recommend her!❤️”
“Stella was amazing! She watched Franklin overnight and did such a great job keeping me updated with pictures and messages throughout the stay. That meant so much to me especially since Franklin can get pretty anxious when I am away. I felt totally at ease knowing he was in good hands. I would absolutely recommend Stella and would happily book her again! :)”
About: I've worked for a small pet sitting business (dog walking and cat sitting) for 9 years! I've taken care of puppies since they were little until they're huge! I can handle (easygoing) big dogs (Newfies) and am a total cat lover, too! I'm especially a sucker for senior pets. I'm responsible and reliable and always get to my appointments on time. I've done everything from walked, fed, given fresh water, cleaned litter boxes, bathed, and administered topical meds. I’m starting my own pet sitting business and am looking for both regular dailies clients as well as pet sitting/vacation clients! This is what I wish my full time job to be. I follow client instructions and make sure everything is thoroughly clear and understood prior to visit with your pet! Just give me your preferences beforehand. I am a very thorough communicator and will provide thorough updates! The only animals I am uncomfortable with visiting are ones with aggressive streaks- I've been bitten before and it's never fun!
“Carmen was communicative and followed all of our instructions to a tee! As our dog has heart failure and needs special care, we are always hesitant to leave him behind but we felt safe leaving him with Carmen. She was respectful of our home and was very kind. We would definitely book her for future sittings.”
“Alexis was incredibly kind and understanding. We had a dog sitter cancel and she agreed to help with our brother’s dog alongside ours on Thanksgiving day. She took good care of the boys and was good at updating us.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Collingswood is $55

Christina was absolutely amazing! She took wonderful care of my dog, Finn, and my cat, Murphy, while I was away for two nights. Knowing they were in such caring and trustworthy hands gave me complete peace of mind. She kept me updated throughout her stay with messages and photos, which made being away so much easier. It was clear that Finn and Murphy were happy, comfortable, and receiving lots of attention and care. When I returned home, my house was just as I had left it, and both pets were relaxed, happy, and well cared for. I highly recommend Christina to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and dependable pet sitter. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Thank you, Christina, for taking such great care of Finn and Murphy!
Sarah was fantastic! She did such a great job with our dog. He has some special needs and Sarah was on top of everything. She spent a lot of time with him, played with him and sent us a lot of updates. She was very quick to respond to all of my communications. I look forward to having her watch our dog again when we need to travel.

Cassidy has been an absolutely wonderful sitter for our dog Lulu and cat Monkey. Lulu is weary of strangers, but through Cassidy's presence, patience, and caring, she won Lulu over quickly. Cassidy also did a great job keeping to Monkey's medication regiment. Through the daily feedback, pictures, and videos, we got both piece of mind and the evolution of our pets' trust at the same time. We are forever thankful for Cassidy watching our pets and home, and look forward to working with her again.
Nikki was absolutely fantastic. We were so lucky to book her just days before a five-day trip out of town when our sitter bailed. Our animals liked her right away and she took amazing care of our home. She even cleaned and shoveled the snow while we were gone. Everything about our experience with her was above and beyond our expectations. Our pets are super picky (as are we, lol) and I had no reservations at all about leaving our two dogs and cat with Nikki. We will definitely book again!!
Krystal was an amazing house and cat sitter for us! She was available on short notice and during the Holidays which was such a relief! She was respectful of our home and more importantly took great care of our kitties and sent us periodic photos and updates! Great communication and a lovely person! Highly recommend Krystal!
Alexis took fantastic care of our two dogs during her overnight stays!! We have one younger dog and one older dog who both have very different needs. She catered to each of their personalities, sent frequent updates, and cleaned up nicely after herself. I would definitely recommend her services and will likely book with her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Collingswood
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Collingswood on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 5,637 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Collingswood. 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 Collingswood 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 Collingswood 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 Collingswood 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.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
