“SirJahad was a fantastic housesitter for my 5 month old puppy and cat. He sent plenty of pictures and detailed messages over the three days we were away. He followed our instructions and took our rambunctious dog on several walks daily.”
“We felt at ease with leaving Zahira with our anxious boy. She got here early to meet him and to know about the house. She was professional and provided great care for Zorro. Extremely happy and Zorro loved her. Thank you so much.”
“Kiara did a wonderful job caring for my dog and cat last weekend, keeping them on a good feeding and walking schedule, hanging out with them, and providing medicine to my cat. She was responsive in a very timely manner, keeping me posted on how things were going throughout the weekend, with texts ad photos. My house was in perfect shape when I got home and my dog and cat were happy -- the best evidence that they had been well cared for and completely at ease with their sitter. Thanks, Kiara!!”
About: Hi!! I am an animal lover with hands on experience caring for my own dog and cat. I truly enjoy spending time with pets, whether that means going for walks, playing, giving them attention, or simply keeping them company. I’m responsible, caring, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable knowing your pets are safe, happy and well cared for when you are away. I have a very flexible schedule. I am available weekdays and weekends. If you need to extend the days, it would not be an inconvenience. I am available for house sitting only and I am not able to board pets in my own home. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets and treat them with the same love and attention I give my own
“Brittany was absolutely wonderful to work with while we were away. She kept constant communication, shared many pics of our pups, and genuinely cared and treated our pups as her own. We are so thankful and highly recommend Brittany.”
“I cannot say thank you enough! Mason was a great sitter for our 2 fur babies. Very attentive and played with them extensively. They had a very good nights sleep. Max suffers from separation anxiety but with Mason he barely knew we were gone. We received updates and pictures throughout the night. So again thank you and will definitely recommend Mason for anyone looking for a kind, caring and attentive sitter.”
About: I have always had a soft spot for puppies to seniors, all breeds of pooches. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, car rides to drive around, a special treat for a pup cup and playing fetch in the yard. I am comfortable with medications, baths/grooming, accidents and the endless dog kisses. I have 2 dogs myself (Rottweiler, and a King Charles Cavalier) who are very rambunctious and always keep me on my toes. I am currently available during the week, weekends and holidays. I am home and available for drop ins, long visits, dog-walks, boarding/overnight visits at your home. I do have a very large fenced in yard for dogs to play in. Multiple crate sizes for dogs and cats along with carriers. For cats- I have multiple cat trees in my home. I do have areas to seperate pets if needed in my 4 story home. Multiple food bowls, blankets and beds to keep everyone happy.
“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!”
“Christina is AMAZING!! We booked her for an overnight 6 day stay and we couldn’t have left our girls with anyone more perfect. Christina came for a meet and greet and the girls fell in love with her immediately! She dealt with all their little quirks with ease and they were so comfortable in her care while we traveled. On top of that she has done several day hangs with the girls while we are out of the house for work and she is so communicative, always on time and her passion and love for animals shows in how she takes care of our girls! Booking with her is the best choice you can make for your fur baby when you are traveling!”
“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.”
“Jess was amazing! She sent us photo and video updates throughout the whole weekend keeping us at ease. She was so sweet and attentive, and even came over a few days before to meet the pups. We will definitely be booking with Jess again in the future!”
“From the moment Chloe and I had a meet and greet with Samantha, I could just tell she is a genuinely kind person. She took great care of Chloe while my husband and I were out for the evening. She sent me pictures and I could tell Chloe really likes her. We look forward to the next time that Samantha can dog sit for us!!!”
“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!❤️”
“Jillian is down to earth and charismatic. She took such great care of my boys, spoiling them with all the goodies and belly rubs!! I received several photos and had a sense of peace while I was out of state. I will definitely be booking her again!!”
“We had an excellent experience with our dog sitter. She took wonderful care of our two dogs over a three-day period and kept us updated with regular check-ins and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. Our dogs were well cared for, comfortable, and happy when we returned home. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly experienced with handling multiple dogs. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for dependable and caring pet care.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Deptford Township
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.
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!

FAQs for House Sitting - Deptford Township
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Deptford Township on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 5,178 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Deptford Township. 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 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 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.

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.
