“Janelle! So good with my 4 dogs. Cares for them, loves them and sends pics which I greatly appreciate. Always smiling and hugging a dog. Thank you so very much Janelle❤️”
“We had a great experience with our dog sitter while we were away. He took excellent care of Julie and Romeo, made sure they were fed, let outside regularly, and kept us updated throughout the stay with pictures and messages, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. It was clear both dogs were comfortable and well cared for. We really appreciated the communication, reliability, and attention he gave them. I would definitely trust him to watch Julie and Romeo again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for dependable pet care.”
“Alexis was fantastic! She provided pictures, videos, and great communication concerning my Boxer, Lucy, while I was away. I would definitely hire her again, and highly recommend her!”
About: I can’t remember a time I didn’t have a pet of some sort under my care! From dogs, to birds, to fish, to frogs, I’ve really done it all! While I don’t have a furry friend of my own yet in vet school, I would love to take yours in and treat them like my own. I’ve already dedicated my life to the wellbeing of animals—why not include yours in that too! I’m currently a veterinary student so my schedule is a bit dynamic! I’m free 24/7 over the summer, but starting in September my schedule becomes a bit more dynamic. Feel free to reach out and see if our availabilities are a match! I live in a residential area with sidewalks (and a park!) perfect for daily walks, and I even have a fenced-in yard for extra play time. No other furry friends currently—so all of my attention will be on your baby!
“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.”
“Courtney is the best!!! She went above and beyond to take excellent care of my 3 kitties and also to ease my anxiety about leaving my babies for 2 weeks. She was a great communicator and left detailed notes and photos every day she visited. She spent extra time with them nearly every day, which was great because the shy cats loved her and the attention she gave them! They opened up to her immediately which was really amazing. She even vacuumed and brought my mail in. 1000/10 recommend.”
About: I have no fear of any breeds large or small as I grew up around dogs and eventually having my own 2 big boys. I have experience training in dog walking. I have raised one of my dogs since he as puppy, I have experience in teaching the basic commands and potty training. I work from home.There is only one day where I would not be available. I am perfectly happy to accommodate my schedule for any emergencies! I have 2 American bully/pitbull mixes who receive the most care and love. When it comes to dog walking, I believe in letting dogs sniff around and take their time. I will make sure to to cater to your instructions.
“What a wonderful friend to our dog. Felicia was extremely caring to our dog as well as doing all the things we asked and more. We could see in the pictures that our dog was happy and enjoying her time. We are so grateful to Felicia for all her care and attention to detail.”
“Lauren was so wonderful to our kitties. They quickly warmed right up to here. She was easy to get in contact with leading up to, and throughout our time away, and she shared tons of pictures+videos. We’ll certainly book her again.”
About: I think that animals make the world a better place. I’m committed to giving them wonderful care and and a friendly, warm embrace every time! I am currently retired and enjoy spending my free time spoiling my animals and others. Animals are better than humans. I take my dog for multiple walks a day. I go out of my way to ensure that the pets feel safe and comfortable in my presence. That’s what means the most to me.
About: I've owned multiple small breeds in my life (mainly Chihuahuas), as well as pet sitting for large breeds like Boxers, Dobermans, and Rottweilers. I regularly take care of my friends cat in their home during vacations, as well as taking care of her medications. I'm available for walking and drop-in visits weekdays after 4:30 pm and pet-sitting in home on Friday nights and weekends! I cannot accommodate boarding currently. I will always follow client instruction on how they'd prefer their pets to be taken care of and am very attentive, and I'm ready to be active, chill, playful, whatever suits the needs of your pet.
About: I’ve always had dogs of all ages and breeds in the family. It is fulfilling giving dogs their best life possible. We will treat your dogs like part of our family. I have a flexible job that allows me to provide care for animals throughout the day. My wife is also extremely involved and we enjoy spending our time around animals. I have a mini golden doodle and am constantly aware of the potential dangers to her. My main goals are to keep your dog comfortable and to not send them home with a vet bill.
About: I love taking dogs on walks around the neighborhood and the park there's nothing like getting fresh air and sunshine with your four legged friends I am a sahm so I am very flexible My kids are all in school during the day so I'm free on short notice for walks and feedings I am careful to not cause any messes I'll feed and take your dog out with a sense of ease and peace of mind knowing they are in good hands
“Denille was a lifesaver when our other sitter cancelled last minute. She made the best of a difficult circumstance and provided a loving companion for our dog while we were away. We are very grateful!”
“Madeline is amazing and very compassionate! Took great care of my senior pups. My one senior really can’t leave the house anymore so we did drop in visits. Madeline put us at ease by sending updates and photos every time she checked in. Definitely will use her again! I’ve used Rover twice before and she is the best!”
“We’ve used Pamela several times for drop ins and she’s very thorough and sweet and provides great updates and photos. We trust she’ll take great care of the pups when we are out and we highly recommend her!”
About: I have worked as a vet tech for over two years and am now in the Army. I have experience with larger dogs as I grew up with a rottweiler, and now have a 120lb Leonberger- so they are not an issue for me at all. I also have experience with cats as well as exotic pets I am available during the week all days to hang out with your loved ones (pets!!) I have experience as a vet technician that is definitely useful for this line of work. I do not have a fenced in yard but do have a track/trail that I take my dog on ~5x a day. It is perfect for dog walking.
About: Caring for pets is my passion. I'm a veterinary assistant with experience in general practice, emergency/critical care, and medical oncology. I have also volunteered as a puppy sitter for Guide Dogs for the Blind, an organization dedicated to helping the visually impaired community. Growing up, I always helped family, friends, and neighbors care for their pets, and I began my professional career in veterinary medicine at 19 years old. My beloved dog Dovey crossed the rainbow bridge recently. I would love to offer pet sitting/dog walking services to help you, and to help heal my heart. I am currently available for pet sitting service in your home, and dog walking service. I am currently looking for full time employment. Availability is subject to change when I begin working full time. My priority is making your pet feel safe and comfortable. I am well versed in animal behavior and reading their body language. I always approach pets in a calm, gentle manner.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Gloucester City
Julie has been watching our cat, Bella, for a year now and has always been very sweet and affectionate towards her, engaging in play and always ensuring to keep us updated on how she’s doing with some awesome photos. We will miss her as we are moving out of state, but she is highly recommended by us!!
Mary Anna is our go to cat sitter! Always on time, follows every instruction, and goes above and beyond to care for our crew. She’s friendly, communicative, and you can truly tell how much she cares. We also love her entertaining and detailed visit recaps. We couldn’t recommend her more!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Gloucester City is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $36 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 9,278 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Gloucester City. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Gloucester City. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
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.
