“Whitney did a great job taking care of my dog & cat for a few days while I was away. She was very responsive and I came home to two happy babies. Highly recommend!”
“Gabrielle kept in touch with us every day about our dog. She gave excellent updates and sent lots of pictures! Thanks again Gabrielle for taking such great care of our precious pup!”
About: I adored my puppy for nearly 13 years and I trained her as a puppy. I also had two dachshunds that I raised as puppies. I have dogs sat for many friends and I cared for each as if they were my own. Dogs feel comfortable with me immediately. I am retired and have full availability to be with your dog all day. I only need a couple of days notice to be available. I cannot have dogs at my apartment at this time as I live in a place where dogs are only allowed if they are service dogs. I can stay in your dog’s environment so they feel safe and comfortable.
“Kayleigh is absolutely wonderful and a great fit for our pups. She sent plenty of pictures and updates on Finn and Maverick and gave them plenty of love. Maverick usually takes a bit to warm up to new people but with her he immediately found a new friend. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life, my sisters will ask me to watch them if they are away and I have two cats I work full time 9-5 but have plenty of time in the morning and evenings. I am also available on the weekends. I also work from home on Fridays so my day is flexible I take care of two cats at my house, I have helped friends and family with pet sitting their dogs, giving them company and taking them on walks

“Alexis stayed at my house with my anxious senior dog, Lily, over a four-day weekend, and she exceeded all my expectations! She took wonderful care of Lily and kept me updated with messages and photos throughout my trip. Best of all, Lily was relaxed and happy when I returned home, which gave me such peace of mind. I highly recommend Alexis and will definitely book her again!”
“Rob and Mabel got along well. Rob provided daily updates and was last-minute flexible when our end date changed! He even grabbed the mail for us as a courtesy. Rob left our home in the same condition it was in when we left. It was nice to come back to that. I We are happy to recommend him for your pet sitting needs. Mabel also gives five licks of approval!”
“Quanece & Malik did an amazing job watching our dogs. They were incredibly communicative, they sent a message every time they walked our dogs with pictures/videos and details of the walk. We have two large breed dogs and one who can be a bit of a challenge - as he has a lot of energy - he takes an experienced dog walker to care for him. Quanece & Malik handled both dogs like professionals, which allowed me and my family to take a vacation without worrying about our pups at home. Thank you Quanece & Malik for your excellent care of our dogs- we would 10/10 recommend to anyone who needs a dog sitter!”
About: Along with working in the animal field for over 15 years, I'm also a dog and cat foster for 2 different rescues for 10 years. My experience expands broader than Rover, so don't let the lack of reviews fool you. I am currently working from home, so I have plenty of time in my schedule to add in walks, visits, playtime, or anything else that is required. I have been fostering dogs for over 10 years. Although we don't have a fence, we have a double gate system at each door to ensure there are no risks of bolting. (Each room with an exit outside is gated by a tall, locking baby gate that is ALWAYS shut behind us when we exit.) As for the clients, home, I am willing to do what the client desires in order for their pet to feel as happy and comfortable as possible while their owner is away. All prices are negotiable.
About: When I was 9 or 10, I had a beloved pet that we sadly had to give away due to a tough moving situation. Years later, we were lucky to bring Charlie home and Marvel, and they have been cherished members of our family for a few years. As a remote college student, I understand how important it is to find reliable help for your pets. I'm here for you and available to pet sit any day of the week or over the weekend. Your furry friends will be in good hands! I can walk your dog every 2-3 hours to ensure they get the exercise and attention they need. Additionally, I have a fenced yard with cameras for safety, where they can play. My own dog, Charlie, a friendly, neutered, vaccinated maltipoo, would love to have a companion to share some fun with! And Cocker spaniel named Marvel (he isn’t neutered yet due to age) who is also vaccinated.
“James did a great job watching our dog while we were overseas for two weeks. He took care of everything and went above and beyond, even cooking chicken for our dog who went on a hunger strike while we were gone. We were able to vacation without any worries, knowing that our pup was in good hands!”
“Makenzi did a great job taking care of my dog & cat while I was away on vacation. I loved the daily updates & pictures; definitely put my mind at ease leaving them in her care. Highly recommend!”
About: I have worked at an animal shelter and an animal Hospital. Your animal will be in great hands! I will love them like I do my own! I am working full-time at an animal hospital but will pick up on days I’m not working to help where I can! It will be on different days throughout the week because my work schedule is not consistent. I am comfortable going to client homes. I don’t have a big enough place to host unfortunately. I do have my own German Shepherd mix and ask if I can bring him along while I work, if not that is okay too!
“We had a great visit drop-in visit with Karren. She was available within 24 hours of me reaching out to do a meet + greet and also come by later in the day to meet our dog, Walter, feed him/walk him/play with him. She left our home tidy and sent cute pics of Walter. We look forward to working with Karren again!”

About: Good Morning! I am Janiya and I’m excited to introduce myself! As an animal science graduate student, my journey with dogs began at a young age. I have been caring for my own dogs since I was just 10 years old, which has given me a deep understanding of canine behavior and needs. My academic background in animal science has equipped me with a solid foundation in animal care, health, and behavior. Through my coursework, I have gained insights into various aspects of veterinary medicine, nutrition, and training techniques. This knowledge allows me to provide not only basic care but also specialized attention tailored to each dog's unique requirements. In addition to my studies, I actively engage in clinical hours at a local veterinary clinic under the guidance of a certified veterinarian and vet tech. This hands on experience is invaluable. It has allowed me to observe and participate in real-world scenarios involving pet health care. From administering medications to understanding common health issues, this practical exposure enhances my ability to recognize signs of distress or illness in dogs while I am sitting or walking them. I’m currently working during the week so I’m available currently on the weekends anytime and will update my hours if need be due to obtaining a set schedule for clinical hours. I believe establishing a consistent daily routine is crucial for both dogs. This includes regular feeding times, exercise, and bathroom breaks. For my husky, who is energetic and playful, I ensure she gets at least an hour of vigorous exercise each day. This includes walks, runs, or playtime in the yard. My cockapoo also enjoys playtime but requires slightly less intense activity due to his smaller size and older age. I ensure that my home environment is safe for both dogs by removing hazardous items such as toxic plants or small objects they could swallow inside and outside. Additionally, I use baby gates if necessary to restrict access to certain areas of the house where they might get into trouble. I have learned by following these steps consistently in caring for my husky and cockapoo at home, and applying similar principles when caring for clients' pets, I’ll create a nurturing environment that supports their health and happiness.
About: First there were up to five rescues who became my lifetime companions. Then we added two beautiful horses. We walked to and through parks, to the reservoir, up hills across streams, and at the marina. Oftentimes we shared the road with grazing cattle and communed with ducks and geese. We moved with the horses where we gave care and love to the horses and even shared property with llamas for a while. "Peachie" the cat has helped to strengthen my feline muscles through love and understanding his understated gifts as compared to the dogs. I am through, loving, caring, and pay attention to detail. I know how to meet each companion where he or she is; and I possess excellent communication skills. Animals and children love me and I them!
About: I’ve grown up with many pets from the age of two. But since I was probably 13 I’ve been pet sitting for family friends, family members, and neighbors. I currently have 3 dogs, a cat, and a rabbit. And I am always learning about animals and how to best care for them. I am currently working part-time. But my job is very flexible. I don’t have a specific set of days that I have to work- it will be sporadically in the week. But I am always able to discuss scheduling. My three dogs have a big fenced in yard and get lots of exercise. Sometimes we go to the dog park for some socialization. At my clients homes, I walk as many times as they need, feeding, and medications (if there are any). For cats, I will clean litter, feed, do medications as needed as well, and playing if they like that!

Madison was great with our dogs. She is kind, thoughtful, responsive, and respectful. Our dogs loved her . I have a reactive senior chihuahua and she did so well with her . She took very good care of our dogs and home . We will book her again . Thank you Madison ♥️🤗
Margaret was great caring for our babies Faith and Hope. When we came home from 8 days in Italy our pups were happy to see us but not anxious. This was a first for us. From the minute they met Margaret they took to her! Margaret cared for and respected our home which was an added plus! We will definitely call on her again and hopefully she will be available.😁

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 4,817 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Southampton Township. 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 Southampton Township 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 Southampton Township 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 Southampton Township 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 , 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 .
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 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.
