“I had a wonderful experience with my dog sitter and would highly recommend them. They took excellent care of my dog, kept me updated with photos and messages, and made sure all of my pet’s needs were met. It gave me great peace of mind knowing my dog was in such caring and responsible hands. My dog came home happy, healthy, and well cared for. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and treat them like their own. I will definitely be using their services again in the future!”
“Sarah and Anthony are fantastic. They treat our dog like their own. Our pup loves playing with their dogs and snuggling like a member of their own family. Plenty of toys, outdoor activity and snuggles. Sarah is always responsive to messaging, which I appreciate very much. I love all the pictures and we will certainly schedule with Sarah and Anthony again!”
“I could not have asked for a better dog sitter! She treated my dog like he was her own. She sent loads of pics of him enjoying himself. I have found my forever sitter. He didn’t want to leave because he met friends and had a great time!!”
“Excellent communication from start to finish! I had the best experience from the initial meet and greet through the entire stay. Luna was in the best hands, and I loved receiving regular updates and pictures. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was so well cared for. I highly recommend Cindy ❤️”
“Cynthia took great care of my dog at her place. She followed instructions, kept me updated, and even made my dog rice to encourage her to eat. Her dog was very friendly with my nervous greyhound. They even played together in Cynthia’s back patio.”
“Jenny and family were amazing. They gave my very senior boy so much love, attention, and expert care. He got the royal treatment! Communication was great and got many wonderful updates and pictures throughout. Her space was perfect to host pups with gates and dog steps. Would 100% recommend and book again.”
“I have no complaints. I needed someone last minute and Zyiana and her fiancée came through. They were responsive, updated me with pictures and made sure Paris was comfortable in their home. This was her first time away so thank you for making her experience special.”
“Felix was great with my dog nova. They made sure she was comfortable with the other animals in the house and stayed in communication throughout my trip. I have so many great photos from their walks and hanging out in the house. Felix is my first choice when I comes to Philly rovers”
“Tu was so great with our funky lil guy Moeba! She provides such great care, is communicative, gives lots of updates with pics, and has a back yard on top of all that! Beyond these ideal dog-caregiver qualities, Tu was genuinely accommodating during a really tough time. We experienced a death in the family within the first 24 hours of dropping Moeba off. Tu was so flexible with our changing needs, and was so kind and supportive to our unexpected and difficult situation. We will most definitely be reaching out to Tu for dog care after this first go. Highly recommend!!”
“This was my first Rover experience and WOW - Samantha was an incredible sitter! She was very responsive and I loved all the photo updates she provided of my dog! She treated my recent rescue pup like her own pet, taking care with medicine instructions and being respectful of the dog’s boundaries. Cannot recommend Samantha more for your next Rover :)”
“I would not hesitate to recommend Tony and his excellent care the next time you need to board your smallest family member. Our Molly, who is in her 14th year, had just started to display some cognitive dysfunction as well as what we perceived as sadness in the loss of her best buddy, her brother from the same litter. Tony was very attentive and observant of Molly's behavior as she tried to adjust to her new surroundings. At times she did need some extra care due to her confusion or anxiety of her situation which Tony lovingly provided, all the while making sure that we were receiving videos and feedback as to her experience.”
“Mina was very good with everything no one else was available for my needs but she was very reliable and kept me updated I will definitely recommend her and visit again she gets 5stars from me”
“Anna took excellent care of our dog, Stella, and made sure she was comfortable and relaxed throughout her stay. I really valued her consistent updates and quick communication. I’d happily recommend Anna to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring dog sitter.”
“It was my first time leaving my dog anywhere I was nervous but Hali was amazing with my pup Leyla. Leyla could get very anxious when she’s around people that she doesn’t know and Hali made her feel welcome. The communication was wonderful she provided pictures at all time. Definitely will use Hali again to dog sit my Leyla.”
“I had such a great experience with Juliana and couldn’t recommend her more highly. Leaving my dog while traveling is never easy, but she made the entire process feel smooth and stress-free from the start. She was incredibly attentive, communicative, and clearly cared deeply about my dog’s well-being. I received regular updates, photos, and little notes that made me feel connected even while I was away.”
“Erika was wonderful! And our pup Mabel had a great time. My spouse and I were able to enjoy our time away knowing Mabel was in good hands (and enjoying herself!)”
About: You know that “can you imagine telling the dog sitter this?” trend? Well you sure should. You can tell me. He only drinks from the bathtub faucet? She needs her blanket tucked a specific way? He gets 1 & 1/4 treats at exactly 8pm (and he KNOWS when it is exactly 8pm)? I want the whole list, and I’ll follow it. And document it for laughs later. Hi, I'm Lucille! I'm a first aid and pet CPR certified dog lover in the Haddon Township/Collingswood area offering drop-in visits, walks, and overnight/boarding care for pups who deserve a home away from home and not a kennel. I’ve been the go-to sitter for friends and family, and after enough people said "you should branch out and do this on Rover!" I decided to listen. So after deciding to take a break from corporate America, here I am! I spent 15 years in HR, which means I'm the person who reads the instructions and sends the update with documentation before you have to ask. Your dog's routine, meds, quirks, and "absolutely-not" list will be followed to the letter, with photos and check-ins so you can relax. For 8 years I was lucky to be a rescue mom to Padfoot, a 8lb toy poodle who came to me with behavior issues. He taught me patience, how to read a dog's body language, and how to earn trust on THEIR terms. I approach every dog just like Padfoot taught me, with calm energy, clear structure, and lots and LOTS of affection (if that’s their thing, of course!) Every new booking will start with a meet-and-greet. I'd love to meet you and your pup(s)! I am currently in the job market so while I am not working full time I have flexible availability. I cannot say I am a particularly active person, so don’t expect hikes and walks for miles and miles. However I do love the quiet walk around my neighborhood, which is a loop just short of a mile. **New Sitter Rates: - Boarding (in my home): $50/night (extended stay - more than 5 consecutive nights = 10% off total stay) - House sitting (in your home): $70/night (extended stay - more than 5 consecutive nights = 10% off total stay) - Drop-in visit or walk (30 min): $25 Add-ons: - Additional dog: +$10/night (boarding & house sitting); +$5 per walk/visit - Puppy under 1 year: +$5/night - Holiday surcharge: +20% per night, walk or visit Pick-up & drop-off services: - One way (within 5 miles): $10 - Round trip: $15 - Beyond 5 miles: +$1/mile **All rates applicable to Rover’s booking fees, taxes, etc. - I do not have a yard, but for outdoor space have a balcony that is secure. Pups will never be let outside unattended. - I can accommodate pee pee pads on said balcony, if needed. - I do not have a very large apartment, so I might not be the best fit for a dog that needs a lot of space for big zoomies. - Speaking of apartments, sorry but dogs that are frequent barkers could be problematic, so please consider that if you’re looking for a longer stay. - I can accommodate however the dog would like to sleep. While I love all dogs, my allergies do not, so unfortunately dogs that shed will not be able to sleep in bed with me. I will be very sad about this the entire time and reserve the right to change my mind. - NO cats, or dogs that share a household with cats. That’s where my allergies have set a firm boundary. Photo evidence from urgent care trip upon request.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gloucester City
I could tell from the photos and when I picked Mara up that she’d had a great time with Erin. Furthermore, Erin and Joe took note of various behavioral questions I had and gave helpful tips and feedback afterwards. I feel like I can rest assured that Mara is in great care when she is there.
Lauren was amazing to my Theo baby. She was very communicative, and sweet. Had all love for my pup, as well as her family. I also want to mention that she went above and beyond she understood that my dog had some anxiety with us leaving, so she was doing anything she could to get my dog to eat while in her care! Definitely recommend Lauren to watch ur fur baby!
Erin and Joe were nice to work with and flexible with pickup and drop off which I appreciated! I’m glad Coco was able to have a fun weekend with her family and she came back to me tired but happy which made me feel good about leaving her with them. Thank you again!
Tu took such amazing care of Zero. He felt comfortable right away which is saying a lot since he is a very shy and anxious dog. We received a ton of updates + photos without even having to ask ❤️ It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. We’re so grateful for the love and attention she gave him and would absolutely recommend Tu to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like their own!
Kelsey & Conor took SUCH good care of our 5 month old puppy. It was our first time leaving him and they went out of their way to get to know him during our meet & greet, as well as update us with pictures and reassure us the entire time we were gone. Our little guy had the time of his life playing with their 2 dogs, and he was treated like family for his whole stay. 💓 I can’t recommend them highly enough!
Madi took incredible care of our best girl Lilo while my husband and I were getting married in Mexico!! it was so reassuring that we received pictures everyday of her having a ball with Madi. she has a giant, fully enclosed yard for your pup to run around in which was also a huge plus! we will certainly be booking with Madi again for our next trip!! highly recommend 💙
Ritch watched our boxer mix while we were out of the country for a week. Ritch really knows what he's doing while pet sitting. His professionalism and communication allowed us to enjoy our vacation without worrying about our pet. He knew how to make our dog comfortable and safe. We'd definitely bok again!

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.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Gloucester City can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Gloucester City home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Gloucester City.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Gloucester City. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
You and your Gloucester City sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
