“Brittany was such a fantastic house sitter and treated our pup like her own!! She left the house in perfect condition and gave our dog lots of walks, playtime, cuddles, and shared plenty of pics. We will absolutely be using her again!”
“Carismeldi was an absolutely wonderful sitter for our dog, Izzy, during our 8-day trip. She stayed in our home, sent us photos and updates every single day, and took such thoughtful and attentive care of Izzy. When Izzy had a bout of an upset stomach, Carismeldi kept us informed and followed all of our instructions to a T, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was also incredibly flexible when our flight was delayed and happily gave Izzy one last walk later than originally planned. It was clear throughout her stay that Izzy was in very capable, caring hands. I would highly recommend Carismeldi to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and attentive pet sitter. We would absolutely have her watch Izzy again!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life until recently, so I have a lot of love and attention to spare now! I have experience dog, cat and house sitting and dog walking including different ages, breeds and temperaments. I am often work from home so I have a lot of availability and flexibility. I can adapt to your pet’s daily schedule as needed. I personally have no children and only one cat who hides most of the time, so I have a lot of love and attention to spare! I am patient, adaptable and communicative with pets and their owners :)
“Nicole was very nice and easy to talk to when I met her. The dogs were very comfortable being around her upon introduction. They were content and happy when I returned from my trip. They didn’t seem stressed in the least, which tells me she took excellent care of them. The house was treated with care too. I will definitely ask her to stay with my dogs again.”
“Amazing! Aside from the adorable videos that Natalie shared during her two night stay with my dog Nola, she absolutely left the house beautiful!! Such a relief after a long trip. And Nola was so happy and totally herself when I got home, so she clearly enjoyed being able to stay in her normal environment and hang out with someone who gave her all of the attention that she craves! I will ABSOLUTELY be using Natalie for my future overnight and dog walk needs!!”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!❤️”
“Rhonda is great with our dog Finn, he can be energetic and Rhonda handled it great. She communicated well- sent pics and gave updates throughout the stay! I’d highly recommend to anyone who wants to know their dog is being given all the attention and care!”
“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!”
About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life, started overnight pet sitting two years ago and find it very rewarding. I love playing and taking care of cats and dogs alike and have a lot of experience with both. I have taken care of dogs with anxiety issues and make sure to make them feel safe! I currently work full time in a dental office and have an hour off for lunch and tons of flexibility in my schedule! I mostly pet sit for long weekends but depending on location I will be able to pet sit during the week and take your dog on long walks during my lunch break! I typically do several walks a day, a few short and at least two long walks. But I am more than willing to accommodate based on owner preferences. I also love playing and really making sure dogs get to have a fun time while I am around! This also goes without mentioning but i love cuddling dogs(who doesn't) so they will also get plenty of affection from me! I will also send plenty of pictures and updates on your fur baby so you know how they are doing!
“Dominique did a great job caring for our puppy. She sent regular updates and pictures. On our first meeting I could see how easily she got along with our dog and I was put at ease immediately. I strongly recommend Dominique as a pet sitter and walker.”

Monica was absolutely wonderful! She stayed at our home and took amazing care of our dogs, following every instruction perfectly and treating them with so much love. She was very communicative throughout her stay, which gave us total peace of mind, and she kept our house in great shape too! She came ahead of time for a meet‑and‑greet, which we really appreciated and I could see right away how much my dogs already liked her! The whole experience was fantastic, and we would definitely book Monica again without hesitation. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive dog sitter!

Kristine did an amazing job watching our Chihuahua, Scout. We booked the house sitting as our dog tends to do better in his home environment, and we were provided with a ton of feedback and photo updates to let us know that he was being taken care of. He was shown lots of love and care during this stay. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter and I plan on rebooking again soon!

The average cost of House Sitting in Deptford Township is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $38 and $69 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 Deptford Township 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 Deptford Township 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 Deptford Township 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
