About: I used to be a vet technician and also have had lots of experience with my own pets. I grew up with dogs of all sizes and currently have 2 cats :) I love animals and would always keep them safe and taken care of. I currently pet sit my neighbor's cats whenever they go on vacation! I'm attentive, gentle, and love all pets! I work 2x a week in Jersey City (Tues and Wed) but from home the rest of the week! That means I'm available all day the rest of the week. On days I work in the city, I'm gone between 8 am and 8 pm. But, if care is needed before or after those times, it can be negotiated! I try to be flexible. I keep my space clean and will clean yours too while I'm sitting on your home. Litter will be cleaned with every visit. And I like to supervise feeding to ensure everything is fine. For boarding, I do have a spare bedroom with its own attached bathroom, and the main door has a cat gate + full door so my pets and yours will be separate :)

About: Hi, I’m Ashlynn! 🐾 I’ve never gone a day in my life without an animal! I’m currently a proud pet parent to a 17-year-old Goldendoodle, a 4-year-old Mini Goldendoodle, an 8-year-old Persian/Russian Blue cat, and an 8-year-old leopard gecko. Needless to say, animals have always been a huge part of my life! I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including senior pets, medication administration, daily walks, feeding routines, and overnight stays. I primarily offer overnight house sitting and in-home pet care, so your pets can stay comfortable in their own environment while you’re away. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust in your home, and I always prioritize following your pet’s routine, keeping your home tidy, and providing regular updates and photos. I work full-time Monday through Friday, 9 AM–5 PM, and am typically available for overnight stays from 6 PM–8 AM. Weekends 24 hrs. Have no problem going to and from work while staying with your pets! Whether your pet needs extra attention, a little patience, or just someone to keep them company, I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away! ❤️ Looking forward to hearing from you and your babies! My Availability: I work full-time Monday through Friday, from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. For overnight house-sitting bookings during the workweek, I am typically available to be in your home from 6:00 PM to 8:00 AM. During the weekends I am available 24hrs! I’m always upfront about my schedule to ensure your pet’s care needs align with my availability. I treat every client’s home with the same care and respect as my own, ensuring a clean, safe, and comfortable environment throughout my stay. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, litter box maintenance, and any special accommodations you or your pet may need. This can include garbage/waste disposal, light cleaning and laundry etc.
About: I’ve helped care for dogs belonging to friends and family, including those of my last three roommates. From daily walks and baths to playtime and cuddles, I loved being part of their routines and building a bond with each of them. Since moving from NYC to Philly, I no longer live with dogs, and I really miss their company! Dog walking feels like a lovely way to spend time with animals while helping other pet parents. I’ll take the time to learn your dog’s personality and routine, and give them the care, affection and attention I’d want for a pet of my own. I’m a freelance designer currently looking for a full-time role, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to spend with your pets. I can fit walks, drop-in visits and playtime around my design projects, giving your pet attentive care and company while you’re away. I’m also available on weekends and can often accommodate short-notice bookings! I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality and boundaries so they feel comfortable in my care. I believe in paying attention to their body language and giving them affection, space or reassurance when they need it. For a year, I walked my roommate’s lovely beagle three times a week for an hour each time. I also cared for him for several weeks at a time while she travelled home, keeping up with his routine and making sure he had plenty of exercise, play and company. My most recent roommate had a five-pound toy poodle, so I also have experience providing the extra gentleness and attention a very small dog needs during walks, baths and everyday care. In your home, I’ll follow your instructions and respect your space. If your dog stays with me, I’m happy to welcome them onto the bed for cuddles, provided that’s something you allow at home too!

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I can remember, however, a few years ago I took over on my own. My mom and I would watch animals for neighbors, family, and friends, and I’m honored to take over that roll for the both of us as a responsible, reliable, and caring pet sitter. I’m a college student, so I’m typically in Blackwood from 8:30 am to 2:00. I also have a morning weekend job in haddon heights, but that is no longer than 5 hours every other weekend or so. My pets at home are loved, happy, and healthy. Their safety is more important than my own, actually. I believe that you should leave a space nicer than you found it, which is why I’m a fantastic house guest. I will always respect your space

“Oliva was punctual, communicative, and attentive to Leo's needs throughout the weekend! We would book Olivia again in a heartbeat — she made our anxious boy feel comfortable.”

“Hanna is amazing. She's super responsible, gave my pup loads of love and took great care of my house, including when the roof started leaking in the rain. She communicates as often as you want, sends adorable pictures and videos and asks questions if she's not sure of anything. My dog has already requested her again. I'll certainly hope she's available next time I need a dog sitter.”

About: I adored my puppy for nearly 13 years and I trained her as a puppy. I also had two dachshunds that I raised as puppies. I have dogs sat for many friends and I cared for each as if they were my own. Dogs feel comfortable with me immediately. I am retired and have full availability to be with your dog all day. I only need a couple of days notice to be available. I cannot have dogs at my apartment at this time as I live in a place where dogs are only allowed if they are service dogs. I can stay in your dog’s environment so they feel safe and comfortable.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes for years, from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra patience. Neighbors, friends, and family rely on me to walk, feed, and keep pets happy and safe. I treat every dog as if they’re my own, with plenty of attention, exercise, and love. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, and pet care. Available weekdays, weekends, and some evenings too for your pets. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs for company. I can crate if needed, always ensuring a safe, loving environment for your pets.
About: I’ve taken care of pets most of my life. I love dogs, and am always the go-to for friends and family when they need a pet sitter. I work full time as a teacher, so my schedule is open during the summer months. The rest of the year, I am available weekdays after 5pm, and most weekends. My own dog was crate trained, but I am comfortable with both crated and free roaming pets. I love snuggling on the couch with a pup or two, and am happy to stick to the routine that works best for your pet!
About: Hi! My name is Amanda and I’m a dependable animal lover with experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’ve had dogs and cats all my life, which has given me a strong understanding of animal care and behavior. I have experience with large breeds including German Shepherds and Huskies, chocolate labs and small breeds as well so I’m comfortable with energetic dogs and long walks. I understand how important pets are to a family and will treat your pet like my own while providing safe, loving, and reliable care. I work Monday- Friday from home so your baby will almost never be alone while staying over. My morning normally begins around 6a.m. With my day ending around midnight. *Please note for sittings I unable to stay overnight. I have a large fenced in yard perfect for catching some sun rays and getting the zoomies out. I do have a pup. However if you would like them to be separated I can keep them separated on different floors in my home.

About: I have always had a passion for pets and their care. Over the course of my childhood I have volunteered at animal shelters, animal hospitals and various other organisations. This love for animals has made me pursue a career in the military. When I graduate, I hope to branch Military Police and be assigned with a K-9 unit, to further my involvement with animals. I have a small pet of my own, who was rescued from a shelter at four months old. He is now going on 7 years. I have also cared for elderly, impaired, disabled and special needs pets. No one in my family, including myself, has ever smoked, been convicted or even thought to have committed a crime, and we have a clean record. My hours are very flexible and I treat every pet as if it were my own. Always taking into consideration their wants and needs. This love for animals makes me a trustworthy and realiable caregiver for your beloved pet.
“I've had Peter petsit for a year or two now, and he's fantastic. He's responsive, timely, trustworthy, and communicative. You can tell he really cares about the animals and treats them like family. Peter goes above and beyond, and he's helped us with a crisis or two while we were out of town. He did really well with my reactive dog (who loved him despite being aloof with most people) as well as my new puppy. Peter is my go-to for pet care and once you hire him, I'm sure he'll be yours too!”


“Reggi is by far THE BEST dog sitter in the world. She understood my dog’s pre-existing conditions and his anxiety as a result of his rescue. She has consistently striven to keep me up to date as often as I asked-and I would not trust my dog (aka my baby) to anyone else. I will continue to work with Reggi moving forward and I’m so glad to have met such a wonderful person who truly loves what she does as much as we love our pets!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Delanco is $60

Alina is amazing! She took such great care of my dog and also my home. I didn’t have to worry about my dog while I was away as there was great communication, pictures sent, and my instructions fully followed. My home was also left in a better state than I left it. She went above and beyond, & I have already recommended her to others😊

Kristen provided wonderful care to my epileptic pup that needed medication every 12 hours. She was awesome in providing updates and pictures throughout her stay. She communicated very well and was very responsible. I would definitely hire her again in the future.

The average cost of House Sitting in Delanco is $36 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $36 per night.

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 Delanco 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 Delanco 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 Delanco 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 Delanco. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
