“Aileen took amazing care of our pup Jack. It was only the 2nd time we’ve ever left him alone with someone else and she had us at ease the entire time. From providing frequent updates, to going above and beyond to care for him, we couldn’t be happier that we chose her. She always took great care of our home during her stay. We can’t recommend Aileen enough & will absolutely be using her again in the future.”
“This was our first time having an overnight pet sitter in our home and Gabby was fabulous! We were kept up to date and got lots of pictures of our pooch throughout the weekend. We will definitely do this again!”
“Kayleigh was amazing with my 3 pugs. She was kind, dependable and definitely loved my dogs. She was also very reliable, which is always nice when you are booking someone to watch your dogs aka babies. I highly recommend Her and am looking to use her again real soon. Thanks..😊”
“Greg was a fantastic pet sitter. He stayed overnight in our home with our three small dogs during our vacation, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He was on time, great with communication, and consistently sent detailed updates and photos that kept us at ease. Our dogs loved him. Our senior dog with medical needs received extra patience and care. Greg followed every instruction, left our home immaculate, and went the extra mile to give each dog plenty of love. We’ll definitely be using him again in the future, and I recommend Greg to anyone looking in-home pet sitting.”
“Alexandria was super communicative and such a pleasure. My dog had a great time with her and I didn’t have to worry while I was away one bit, looking forward to hiring Alexandria again!”
“Truly wonderful house sitter for our elderly pug. She took care of his every need and sent us tons of updates and pictures. I would absolutely suggest her to any other pet owner.”
“One of the most important things when our family goes away is making sure we have a caring, responsible sitter for our dog, Bucky. Alyssa is amazing! We can go away and be certain that Bucky will be loved and cared for! We highly recommend her!❤️”
“Extremely friendly, true professional and kept us updated throughout the time she was there. She even started nearly an hour longer because we were running late. We would definitely rebook her.”
“We always know our dog and our house are in good hands with Christopher. He leaves the house spotless, and he keeps our dog happy, healthy, and comfortable, with no complications or other concerns.”
“Kristen was wonderful. My dogs took right to her. She sent me some pictures with my dogs on her lap. Pictures of my dog kissing her. Kristen rose to the occasion and took great care of them.”
“Carmen was communicative and followed all of our instructions to a tee! As our dog has heart failure and needs special care, we are always hesitant to leave him behind but we felt safe leaving him with Carmen. She was respectful of our home and was very kind. We would definitely book her for future sittings.”
“Brittany was so amazing! She was super communicative and flexible with my booking and Oscar absolutely loved her. I will definitely book with Brittany again if I need a long-term stay for Oscar!”
“Hanna is amazing. She's super responsible, gave my pup loads of love and took great care of my house, including when the roof started leaking in the rain. She communicates as often as you want, sends adorable pictures and videos and asks questions if she's not sure of anything. My dog has already requested her again. I'll certainly hope she's available next time I need a dog sitter.”
“Amanda went above and beyond in caring for North. She sent me photos several times a day, including during walks, and North seemed very happy to spend time with her. She left my home in perfect condition, and I feel confident that North was very well taken care of. I highly recommend Amanda to other pet owners, and I will absolutely hire her again! Thank you, Amanda!”
“Kathryn was awesome and very professional. She kept me updated throughout the day and made me feel very much at ease. Katie took excellent care of my dog (Ruben). I would highly recommend Kathryn!”
“Makenzi was amazing! She sent us plenty of pictures and took great care of our dog. He was very happy and calm when we got home, we could tell he had plenty of love and play time while we were away!”
“Alexys did a great job with our kitten and puppy. She kept us updated on how they were doing. Our puppy is skittish around new people and things and she was able to win him over. She was also very professional and our home was as we left it. We will be using her again in a few days after having her here for the past week.”
“Christina is AMAZING!! We booked her for an overnight 6 day stay and we couldn’t have left our girls with anyone more perfect. Christina came for a meet and greet and the girls fell in love with her immediately! She dealt with all their little quirks with ease and they were so comfortable in her care while we traveled. On top of that she has done several day hangs with the girls while we are out of the house for work and she is so communicative, always on time and her passion and love for animals shows in how she takes care of our girls! Booking with her is the best choice you can make for your fur baby when you are traveling!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Maple Shade
Gabrielle watched our 2 dogs and 1 cat while we were away for the whole week. One of the dogs is a 9 month old puppy and Gabrielle was extra patient with him and took such great care of all our babies. The other dog is a senior and requires oral medication, which Gabrielle provides twice daily without any issues. She is extremely reliable, communicates well, and is always on top of things. An unexpected plus, she left our home in beautiful shape! Highly recommend.
Stayce saved our lives when our prior sitter canceled 2 days before a 2 week trip. She immediately connected with my dog when she came for the meet and greet, and was so good with her. She communicated with us everyday through updates and pictures, which means alot when you are on the other side of the country. We came home to a very happy dog and a clean, orderly house. We are already planning to book Stayce again and highly recommend her.
Anne is awesome! She patiently listened to my “dog mom” ramblings while we were away as I remembered info we forgot to write down. She sent updates and pics of our pup in the yard and playing in the house. Sochi has a few special needs so we appreciated that she was proactive in clarifying info about his med schedule, exercise needs and showed concern that his appetite seemed off. Anne will be our first call next time we need a “sitter” for our pup!
Sarah was fantastic! She did such a great job with our dog. He has some special needs and Sarah was on top of everything. She spent a lot of time with him, played with him and sent us a lot of updates. She was very quick to respond to all of my communications. I look forward to having her watch our dog again when we need to travel.
Leah was an outstanding sitter for our two dogs and cat! Our senior lab has special needs and mobility issues, she did a wonderful job of caring for him and making sure he was comfortable the entire time we were away. Our younger dog immensely enjoyed her company and was spoiled with lots of treats and playtime. She was also incredibly patient with our formerly feral cat who is very wary of new people, finding ways to gradually gain her trust and provide the best possible care. Leah really took the time to get to know all of our pets, remarking on their personalities and quirks along the way. We had such peace of mind while our dogs and cat were in Leah's care, we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and professional pet sitter!

FAQs for House Sitting - Maple Shade
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Maple Shade on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 5,317 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Maple Shade. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Maple Shade walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Maple Shade maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Maple Shade 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!
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Maple Shade. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
