About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats my whole life. I had my own dog sitting and walking business from ages 14-19 and then stopped dog walking when I adopted my first dog. Now, we have 3 dogs, and I would love to help other families with their fur babies! My husband and I work full time but will be available on weekends. We also can provide services in the late afternoon/evening. My husband and I will both be assisting, and will make time for you and your babies! I work remotely 2-3 times a week. We’re best able to assist with boarding, on Fridays and the weekends. We can dog walk on the weekends and evenings. During the weekday, our availability is more limited given our full time jobs. We can care for a few dogs at a time, if you are comfortable with it! If not, let us know and we can limit our care to just your pet! We have a large, fenced yard! We also have 3 friendly dogs of our own! They are our family! We are respectful of other people’s homes and their family members.
“Deanna was so lovely! She accommodated us as with a last minute request and responded quickly by asking lots of questions about our dogs, their habits, and needs. She followed our instructions to the letter and although it was a quick drop in, she still gave us a full report and pictures. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Elena did an amazing job with our boys! We have a very large excited Labrador we were nervous about leaving with someone new, but she handled him amazingly! I was very happy with all the updates and pictures she left us while we were gone. Would highly recommend:)”
“Amanda was an awesome drop in for our our cat! She was punctual, kind and gave Kitty her medication like a pro. We will absolutely be using for drop ins again soon!”

Please inform me of any routines, medication, and rules.
“Olivia is a wonderful pet sitter and we couldn't be happier! We have a dog and two cats. Our dog can be weary and reactive with new people, especially when we are away for an extended period of time. Olivia's patience with her to earn her trust was very much appreciated. Olivia is also very friendly and great with communication. We felt very much at ease knowing she was taking good care of our pets and taking note of how they are doing and letting us know if they weren't eating all of their food so we can keep an eye on them. She also made sure everyone took their medications at each meal. Looking forward to having her watch them again!”
“We needed a last minute dog walker for our 1 year old Husky. Caitlyn was GREAT! I loved seeing all the pictures and updates. She even cleaned up a little of a mess that Nuna made. Definately will be using her again!!”
“Monica has been so sweet, and willing to come on last minute visit requests. She goes above and beyond anyone I’ve met, even voluntarily cleaning up puppy messes or accidents he might have gotten in to after breaking out of crates. She always keep me updated and sends the cutest photos. So thankful for her, and love to continue my pups play time with her.”

About: I have experience caring for cats and small dogs and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m patient, attentive, and respectful of each pet’s personality and routine. I can help with feeding, walks, playtime, basic grooming, and lots of affection. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away I’m a Penn student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan pet care around my classes. I’m especially available in the evenings, on weekends, and during days when I have more flexibility. I’m happy to coordinate with pet parents in advance to make sure their pet receives consistent and reliable care. I always follow the pet parent’s instructions and try to keep each pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I make sure food, water, doors, leashes, and the environment are secure, and I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level. I’m respectful of both the pet and the owner’s home, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos while they’re in my care.
“Alyssa did amazing! My request was short notice and she was able to accommodate her schedule time to drop in with Pongo. Loved the updates, and she has a great communication. Thank you so much for helping.”
“Haleigh was so awesome in Cari g for ALL 3 of my babies! She is a god send. I have never used this app before and was skeptical at first but she eased all of my worries and concerns. She checked in with me multiple times and sent me videos and pics of my babies and took care of them as if they were her own. Will definitely be a returning customer and recommend her without any hesitation! Thanks again Haleigh🫶🏻🥰”
About: I've loved and taken care of dogs and cats my whole life, mine and other people’s too! It started with my childhood German Shepherd, JoJo, who waited at the end of the street every day to run along side the school bus because she knew I was on the that big, yellow, beast. More recently, I loved and cared for my orange and white, Manx cat, Sid, named after Sid Vicious because he was a little vicious when he was a kitten. My experience taking care of other people's dogs began 22 years ago when a co-worker needed help with her Pomeranian when she went on a trip. I dog sat for her several times. When she realized she no longer could keep her Pom, she let me adopt her. For about 4 years, I raised German Shepherds, including ones imported from Germany. During that time, my partner and I also trained German Shepards for a sport called Schutzhund. It's a sport that tests a dog's tracking, obedience and protection skills. I also trained dogs of all breeds and mixed breeds obedience, cute little tricks and manners. You know what I'm taking about with manners! haha jk I love teaching dogs new tricks! I’m comfortable taking care of puppies, adults and senior dogs; anxious and timid dogs and with administering oral and topical medications and following special instructions and giving extra attention and longer walks if desired. If your dog has a strict routine, you can be at peace knowing I will follow your dog’s routine exactly how he/she is accustomed to it being. If you choose me as your dog sitter, your dog will be showered with love, time and attention. I love taking your dog for walks, playing in the backyard and cuddling on the couch, whatever your pet likes, needs, and enjoys. I am here to help! In addition to taking care of your pets, I am a freelance writer and artist working from home, and I have a very flexible schedule. We can make plans in advance for me to take care of your pet and I can usually be available on short notice. When I'm pet sitting in your home, your pets are my focus, but if I do need to step out for any reason, I'll be sure your pets are safe, happy and your home is secure. I'll leave your pets loved, and your home clean for when you return.
“Erin was wonderful with my good boy Mr. Bear. She spent extra time with him and worked with the changes I made to the schedule. She is a great photographer too and took amazing photos of my super handsome man. I would 100% hire her again for any petsitting needs.”
“Thank you for taking such great care of Lady! We could tell by the pictures provided that she had a great time playing in the backyard and she looks forward to hanging out with you again soon!”
“Greg did a great job with Jack! He stopped by before his bookings for 2 meet and greets to make sure Jack was comfortable. He went above and beyond with the walks, hangouts and training. We’re excited to book Greg again and we know Jack is too.”
About: I’ve had dogs and watched dogs since I moved to this area in 2006. I love to take them for walks and give lots of scratches. Dogs are just the best. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I also don’t start until 8:30 or 9 so early mornings are good. I am up late also so any time at night is fine. My home has a fenced in yard. For other homes I would take the dogs for a walk, refresh water, give a treat and make sure they’re all settled before heading out

Ashley was wonderful. I am very happy we hired Ashely to look after our cat while we were away; she is reliable, provides photo updates, and she appeared to express real affection for our cat, which enabled us to relax knowing that Finn was cared for in our absence.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Gibbstown is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $33 per visit. 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.
As of October 2026, there are 9,244 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Gibbstown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.

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.
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.
