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 :)
“Whitney stayed overnight with Bolt. Bolt immediately seemed at ease with her. She took him for his walks and fed him. We were delayed returning and she was gracious enough to stay until we returned. Will definitely book her services again. Thanks Whitney!”

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!
“Batool was caring, kind and attentive. He reviewed our instructions carefully, clarified details, and asked questions during our absence when he wasn't sure. I really appreciated his willingness to communicate with me in order to ensure our dogs were happy and healthy.”
“We were so happy with all the help and care Gianna provided to our pets while we were out of town. We will absolutely request Gianna in the future and would recommend her services to all our pets while parents. Thank you Gianna!”
About: For the past 10 years, I’ve taken care of not only my family dogs, but my neighbors’ cats and dogs. Most pets tend to take a liking to me from the start, which makes this less of a job and more of something that I enjoy doing. I’m currently working full-time 9-5 Mon-Fri so… House sitting: Strictly weekends starting Friday nights going into Sunday night Drop-in visits & Dog walking: Anytime after 5:30pm Mon-Fri & full availability on Sat and Sun Having previous work experience caring for animals allows me to truly understand the level of attention that needs to be given to your pets. I can ensure your pets’ safety and well-being in my presence, while also providing a mentally and physically stimulating time for them
About: I’ve been dealing with pets all of my life. From the tiniest of them all to the biggest you can think of in different types of towns and areas. So basically it comes naturally. I think of pets as a baby , you treat them with a lot of care and give them all of your time. I think Each dog gives you new experiences and it teaches you a lot. I’m all for learning new things. Animals love me and I love them. If you want a 24 hour service care I’m the one to call. Turn my house into OUR house and call it their own as well. Energetic , fun , lovable , caring , compassionate , patient , comforting , and playful!
“Kayleigh is without a doubt the best dog / house sitter we have ever had. Our dog Emma had a great time with Kayleigh and we returned to our home just as we left it. Kayleigh took lots of photos and kept us informed the entire time we were away, which eased any concerns we may have had (since this was the first time Kayleigh watched Emma). While this was the first time Kayleigh watched Emma, it certainly won't be the last. Thank you Kayleigh.”
“This was our third time using Josh for overnight stays, and he continues to be a really great sitter. His communication is excellent. He provides regular updates and is always very responsive. It's stressful to have your pets care (and your home) in someone else's hands. Josh's communication definitely helps us feel more at ease. We have a fenced yard, but Josh always takes Rider on walks which I really appreciate (as does Rider). Every time we've come home you'd never know he was there. He brings in packages, etc. which again, I really appreciate. We will continue to book Josh without question!”
“My husband and I would 100% trust our dog with David. We have an anxious pup and was worried about strangers meeting him but from the first meet, our dog was very comfortable with David. He gave punctual updates while we were gone and the visit went smoothly. When my husband and I came back home, we found a very nice handwritten card, chocolates, and even a dog toy from David! A very nice gesture and the kind of generous person we would invite back to our home to care for our pup. Thanks for your help David!!”
“Trevor was wonderful during a not so great time for my pup. Burt was in post op recovery and Trevor was able to take great care of him, provided daily updates, took him for his stroller rides and gave him his meds so he can rest up.”
“This was the first time that we've left our boy, Finn, at home with a sitter. Amy was great! She adapted to our slight changes in plans, with us having gotten stuck at the Jersey shore during a Nor' Easter. Great communication and left the house spotless and the dog happy! We highly recommend Amy!”
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
About: 🐾 All shots must be up to date prior booking. 🐾 Our goal is to give your pup the best experience possible. We're flexible with drop-offs and pick-ups, anytime between 6:30am and 8pm. Since I have young kids at home, I try to stick to a routine. Hope this isn't too inconvenient for you. If needed, we can easily extend your stay—no worries at all 🦴🐶 All about me! I am an animal interactoinist. I just have a good open sense of character when it comes to animals. I enjoy the love they give and I am in tune with their individual personalities. I have a calm demeanor and I'm am very sensitive to their needs. I love to verbally communicate with them like I do with my human counterparts. I love to walk them especially as a part of my exercise regiment. I love to feed them at their meal times. I love when they are excited to eat! I also enjoy longer than 30 min walks so that the dogs have time to stop and smell and do the things they do. I don't like to rush them during their normal routine. They deserve the best at all times. My consistent daily routine, including feeding, walks, and playtime, helps your pet feel secure and reduces anxiety. I do also start the day with a walk, playtime, or a brief cuddle session to bond with your pet and provide them with exercise and mental stimulation. To foster safety, trust, and a positive environment for your dog, I do provide a stable routine, establish a safe space, and create a bond through positive reinforcement and socialization.
“Quanece and Malik did such a great job watching our dog penny! Since we moved to Philly we had barely left, due to not having a trusted dog sitter. They took amazing care of our dog, left us multiple updates a day, and they left our house absolutely immaculate. We already have them scheduled for another trip this month and will continue to be repeat customers!”
“Hanna was everything you’d want in a sitter. Communicative to your preference, experienced, caring, loving and cleanly! We immediately clicked with Hanna and so did the animals, most importantly. She took care of our two dogs and I could tell how happy they were just from the pictures. She was also extremely respectful and cleanly during her stay. I have two happy loved dogs and I can’t wait to rebook. Cannot recommended enough!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Edgewater Park
Jimi was great. He showed up on time, took great care of our dogs (one senior who needs extra attention: diapering, help with steps, etc.) and house, and gave us peace of mind while we were away from home. He sent periodic updates (at least once a day) which was super - not intrusive but we were also not left wondering how things were going - and was very quick to respond if we reached out. Jimi left the kitchen spotless, did some dog laundry, tidied the house and I'm virtually certain he vacuumed the rug where the dogs usually rest and get all hairy. How nice it is to return to content dogs and a clean home?! Very happy to have found Jimi and hope he is available for future stays!
Janaah was wonderful, I felt very comfortable leaving my dog Willow for several days and nights!!--Janaah is very kind and tolerant of "special needs" pets and medications --my senior dog was terrific when I got back--not stressed or having any issues whatsoever !!
Alyssa was wonderful! Will use her again! This was my first experience with having a dog sitter and through this site! Would highly recommend! Alyssa came prior to our vacation and met us and lady. Super sweet girl! During our trip she kept in contact since she knew I was nervous and sent lots of pictures! Thank you again Alyssa!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Edgewater Park is $85 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $53 and $136 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Edgewater Park 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 Edgewater Park 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Edgewater Park 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.
