About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs and cats of all personalities, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own little fur-family. With 6+ years of dog experience and over 20 years of cat care, I’m confident, calm, and totally in tune with what pets need to feel happy and safe. I’ve owned 7+ cats over the years, cared for many pups, and even handled medication and special routines. Friends and neighbors have trusted me for ages to feed, walk, play, cuddle, and keep their pets smiling while they’re away. I’m gentle, reliable, and always focused on giving your pets the love and attention they deserve.Lots of tail wags and purrs guaranteed. Pet care fits naturally into my day because I’m a stay-at-home parent with a very flexible schedule. I’m home often, which makes it easy for me to plan walks, drop-in visits, feeding times, and play sessions around your pet’s needs. Your pet’s comfort and safety come first in my home. I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and plenty of space to explore. Inside, I use gates throughout the house to keep pets out of trouble and create a calm, manageable environment. If your pet is used to structure, I can crate them as needed to keep their routine consistent. I also have two playful, friendly dogs who love making new friends and can keep your pup company—whether they enjoy gentle play or just having a buddy nearby. My goal is to make your pet feel at home, loved, and totally comfortable during their stay.

About: Hi, Matt here. I’ve been around dogs my entire life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. What sets me apart is that I understand dog behavior, routines, and needs from real, hands-on experience—not just from reading about it. I’m calm, reliable, and confident with dogs of all sizes and personalities, whether they’re high-energy and need exercise or more laid-back and just want companionship. I pay close attention to detail, follow instructions closely, and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. My goal is always to treat every dog like they’re part of my own family and make sure owners have complete peace of mind. I’m currently a full-time teacher and will have open availability in the summer time to care for your pets! During the school year I am also available after 3:30 PM on weekdays for any walks, drop ins, etc. I have two dogs on my own and I am focused on safety! Pets will always be secure with a leash while on walks and kept away from other animals walking by. If being let out in the yard I always double check that the fence is secured, and there are no areas where dogs can escape.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Surf City on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 930 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Surf City. 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 Surf City 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 Surf City. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% 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.
