About: I’ve had pets my whole life and have fostered dogs. I currently have a a dog and a cat and 4 kids. Looking for summer work. y schedule is consistent and organized, which allows me to be dependable and punctual for visits. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, a walk, I make sure every pet receives reliable, loving care and is treated like one of my own. I care for pets in their own home by keeping their routine as normal as possible. I carefully follow feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions while giving them plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. I also treat every client’s home with respect, keeping it clean, secure, and just as I found it
“Emilie went above and beyond to care for my pup! She was attentive and responsive. I would definitely recommend using Emilie’s services. I know that I will certainly be booking with her again!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was young. I have 3 dogs of my own. All very friendly. Two more matured ladies and one younger with a bit more energy. I also have grooming experience if requested. I work Monday- Friday from 7am-4pm but i am home the rest of the time. I go for walks around the neighborhood, to the Timber creek dog park or even play in the backyard. I have a fenced in yard, plenty of room inside to run and play, and a nice neighborhood to go on walks. Both of my dogs are crated during the day but yours doesn’t need to be. I allow them to roam all day when I’m home and at night.
“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!!”
“Sydney was fantastic! She took such great care of my senior cat, provided great pictures, and had such great communication. I really can't recommend her enough and will definitely call her back :)”
“Amy was absolutely wonderful. She was communicative via the Rover app or text messaging. She took great care of our 3 kitties which is no easy task cause they are a handful. She was able to give my oldest kitty her medication with no problem and kept the litter boxes nice and clean. The 3 kitties loved her and were happy to cuddle. We will definitely use her in the future if she is free!”
“Peter is an excellent sitter! He take amazing care of my dogs with special needs (medication and reactivity) and they love when he comes over. Peter is responsible, communicative, and genuine in his love for animals.”
“Myranda was great. She last minute popped by to meet Penelope and check out the place. She provided details and photos each drop in visit. Will definitely book again!!”
“Clare watched our 2 big dogs while we were out of town. She was very professional and shared updates with pictures promptly each day. I felt like my dogs were in safe hands with such an experienced, responsible, and caring person. I would definitely book Clare again!”
“My dog didn't react well to Antonia unfortunately. I don't think this had anything to do with her. My puppy seems to be hit or miss with people and this just wasn't a good match. Antonia was happy to sit with us and try to give him some time to warm up. Even though it didn't work out for us, she seemed very nice. The effort she put in, even with my puppy growling at her, shows how much she is a pet lover and I'd definitely recommend her to others.”
“Abby was absolutely wonderful! I was in a pinch and needed someone to come over and check on my dog the same day. I blindly reached out to her, she responded quickly and was able to make it happen! We then had her come check on our dog the following 2 days as well. She let me know when she was on her way and gave me thorough updates throughout. I’ll absolutely be using her again and if highly recommend her!”
“Stephen and his family are the absolute best! My dogs were obviously comfortable and excited to see them daily. I received photos and updates every day, and am so happy to have trusted sitters. I would highly recommend them!”
“Donna was great with working with me (first time Rover user) and my scaredy dog. She was very patient with my reluctant pup and by her 3rd visit, Donna had gained my dog’s trust. Donna provided clear communication and worked with me to find the best times for her visits. Thanks Donna!”
About: Previously moved from West Virginia where I did daily walks and pet sitting full-time after leaving a career in Public Health. I would take my clients on walks, hiking, running in fields, or swimming. My services are tailored based on the needs of the dog, family’s needs, and providing necessary pet sitting services when needed both in-home and boarding. Certified through the National Association of Professional Pet Sitters and first aid trained. I’m a full-time dog walker and pet sitter, this ensures flexibility based on the needs of the client’s and their pets. In most cases I can do on-demand walking or drop ins to help with life’s business. I want to ensure animals are cared for in a safe and healthy environment. The biggest priority is the well being of the pet by ensuring a secure and nurturing setting. Any services provided in-home will be done so with respect to privacy and confidentiality of the pet-parents home and any sensitive information will be handled with care.
“Britney checked in on our dog, who gets a little too excited when people visit, and she did great! She let her outside and then did whatever our dog wanted to do (even if it was to just get pets and plug tug of war). She updated us about the visit promptly. Will ask Britney to help us again in the future!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gloucester City
Amazing! I have two very high-demand dogs—one senior dog with all the extra needs that come with age, and an adolescent with tons of energy and a serious love of mischief. Lee does an incredible job with both of them. They’re great at communicating with me about anything that comes up and are wonderful at handling all the “extras” that come with a senior dog and a young dog who is still learning. I feel completely confident knowing they’re in Lee’s care!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Gloucester City stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Gloucester City 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!
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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Gloucester City with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
