“Sheri S was great with our senior cat. The pictures she sent and the check ins showed our girl was happy--getting the attention and care she needed in our absence. We wanted a mixture of care times/length. Sheri was patient while we figured it all out. Her meet and greet was thorough. We felt, rightfully so, that our old girl would be well attended. Our first time using a drop in was a great success. Thank you Sheri.”
“Holli has been fantastic with our cats! She is very sweet and goes the extra mile. We have had the best experience with her and we will absolutely continue to book her in the future.”
“Kimberly was easy to book with and flexible, and made time to connect last minute. She took good care of my fur babies and they looked happy in all the pics. She was good at communicating which I appreciate!”
“Brian is wonderful!!! Very caring and taking the extra mile to take wonderful care of my elderly dog! I can’t say enough wonderful things about their love for animals in taking care of them!”
“We had an amazing experience with our dog sitter! She stepped in last minute for a drop-in appointment, and we couldn’t be more grateful. She took great care of our dogs, giving them plenty of attention and even playing a game of catch to make sure they got some exercise and fun. It was clear she genuinely cares about animals, and our dogs were happy and well-cared for when we got home. Highly recommend her services—she was a lifesaver!”
About: I’ve taken care of 4 dogs over the past couple decades. My current dog, Pumpkin Pie, I spoil and give her lots of attention and walks. She goes with me everywhere- from the park to the grocery store! I’m currently working full time, but I want to switch to a field I know I’ve always loved. I’m accepting weekends for now and hoping to work around my current schedule during the weekdays. When I’m house sitting, I make sure that I have all the information I need about the doggo. I make sure to greet and talk to them throughout my stay and make sure they’re comfortable and well fed.
“Five Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Savannah stepped in on short notice for the holidays and gave Bella and Hobbes the best care imaginable. She brought such warmth, attention, and playful energy—our pets clearly felt safe and loved the entire time. Her support made all the difference, and we’re so grateful for her reliability and kindness. We’d welcome her back anytime!”
“Thank you for taking care of my babies while I was away. Stephanie was able to squeeze me in with very short notice and was very punctual in the agreed on times. She sent me updates on the pets and the house, and I felt at ease the entire time.”
About: I am Fear Free Certified, with 2 years of professional experience in animal shelters, and upwards of 5 years personal experience with pets of all shapes and sizes. I specialize is animals who need extra attention, like dogs who struggle with resource guarding or reactivity. My goal is always to relieve any animal of fear, anxiety, or stress. My schedule is open and flexible! I understand that things happen, and we aren’t always able to book a sitter a week in advance. I always do my best to keep my schedule open for same-day bookings Every pet parent does things their own way! I cater to each parent’s routine and rules. If your little one needs a slow and steady approach, I’ll always match their speed. If your dog has high energy and a high prey drive, they’ll be tuckered out and happy by the time I leave.
“Reliable, including on several last minute requests! Chelsea has helped me tend to my dog Jill on numerous occasions. Very attentive and supportive. Had no problem adjusting to my loving but anxious dog’s ways :) She’s also been very flexible and receptive of my detailed needs/requests. Jill and I appreciate you!!”
“Alyssa took very good care of my Snug, who was, unfortunately, too shy to hang out with her! But I will be using Alyssa again soon, and I hope then that Snug will be more hospitable.”
About: I have had a love for animals my whole life! Throughout my summers in high school I volunteered at GMHS as a way to give my time back to the community. I now have a 3 year old Jack Russell/Beagle mix named Nova, and we do everything together. I also have 2 cats Jake & Bailey, and a Leopard Gecko named Leia. I do work full time M-F, however I dedicate my weekends to spending time taking Nova on longer walks and having extended play time, and she loves having guest! I will treat your pets as if they were my own. I usually take Nova out to parks often, and out for play time in our back yard. She is very welcoming to guest and loves having someone to play with. If you are comfortable Nova and I would love to have guest join our walks and play times!
“Ruthanne was amazing!! She was super flexible with our last minute schedule change, so very much a life saver! She took care of our fur babies - 1 doggo, 2 kitties - with lots of love and attention. We highly recommend her services!”

“Our cats really seemed to enjoy having Ehlaura around while we were gone. Even our most timid kitty came out from under the bed to see her! She sent us photos every day and left notes about what they were up to. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Gloucester Point
This was our first time using a Rover pet sitter. I was wary having someone I didn’t know provide care for our cat Sophie, who is skittish and pretty much trusts only us. The first time she met Sheri she went right to her. We were shocked. Sheri is clearly a cat whisperer! With her daily communications and pictures, we felt that she was in the best of hands and so grateful to have found her. One early morning I checked in on Sophie via camera and she was positioned on top of the sofa looking at the door, waiting for Sheri to show up. No one has ever reached Sophie in that way, other than us. I wholeheartedly recommend Sheri to take care of your pets. I will be a repeat customer.

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Gloucester Point on Rover is $16.05 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,434 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Gloucester Point. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
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 Point stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Gloucester Point. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
