Flynn was very happy that he had Olivia to take care of him. Olivia was diligent in keeping us posted on how Flynn was, as well as sending pictures every day. She took care of everything, including our home, which was exactly how we left it. We will definitely have her again to watch Flynn.

Five stars is not enough Leanne is a godsend. Our sitter canceled after we were 7 1/2 hours away. We were stuck with no one to care for our pup. Luckily, I found Leanne and she most graciously agreed to do it at the last minute. We got daily updates and our pup came home happy and healthy. I would recommend her to anyone worried about leaving their pet.

Daniel was exceptional with our two high-energy pups. His stay in our home while we were at a work event went so smoothly, from meeting the pups through communicating with pictures through the weekend and the "handoff" when we got home. We felt so at ease, especially me with my rescue knowing they were in great hands!

I am currently transitioning to making this my full time job so I am able to do this any day and anytime of the week. I ensure all pets needs are met whether it be making sure they are taking a specific medication or something as simple as making sure to take them out every couple of hours. I want to make sure that any pet in my care is being well taken care of.

About: Hi! I’m Kaleigh, and I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 20 years. I’ve always been a huge animal person, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet and their personality. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, breeds, and energy levels, along with rabbits, chickens, birds, and reptiles. Whether you have a high energy puppy who needs lots of playtime or a senior pet who just wants some extra love and attention, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I have two cats of my own, so I completely understand how nerve racking it can be to leave your pets with someone else. I treat every animal I care for like I would want someone to treat my own, with lots of love, patience, attention, and plenty of updates for you. My friends and family joke that I’m an “animal whisperer” because animals always seem to find me, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. I’d love the chance to meet you and your pets! Feel free to check out my reviews here on Rover, and please reach out if you have any questions Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life and something I genuinely enjoy. I have two cats and a boxer of my own, so my days naturally include feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. When I’m caring for someone else’s pets, I make sure to work around their normal routine as much as possible. Whether they need an early morning walk, a midday visit, or some extra time and attention in the evening, I want them to feel comfortable and happy while you’re away. I’ll always make sure they get the care, love, and consistency they’re used to. I care for every pet like I would my own. I always try to stick as closely as possible to their normal routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, medication, or just giving them some extra love and attention, I make sure they get exactly what they need. I’ll also keep you updated so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing.

About: I have experience working with dogs of all ages at a shelter, I’m good with all ages and work with the dogs at their comfort versus having them conform to what I want them to do. I’ve administered medication to dogs both older and younger and I’m willing to do whatever it takes to make you feel at ease about your dog being left with me. I am currently in school from 830-3 I can provide care from 330 and beyond depending on what you need. Weekends I am home all day and if your dog enjoys it I can take them hiking to the park ext. As I do live in an apartment that isn’t fenced in I can’t let them run around In a yard, but I have plenty of space to walk dogs or run with them if they like as I am very active. If I am in your home I will make sure your dog feels as safe as possible with me being there as well as providing you comfort.

Erin did an amazing job watching my dog while house sitting for two weeks. From the start, she was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about my dog’s well-being. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and a house that was just as I left it. It gave me real peace of mind knowing everything was in such good hands while I was away. I’d absolutely trust Erin again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog sitter.🐾🎉

I was away for three night with no worries after learning what a caring person Lauren was at our meet and greet. Lauren and I went over the pups walking routine and their eating schedule. I was so nervous to leave my babies alone for their first time, but Lauren reassured me that she would give them special care. And that they did. I received several pictures and texts from Lauren over the weekend letting me know they were happy and content. I am very pleased with Lauren’s house sitting services and care for my pups . I highly recommend her and surely will use her services again.

About: I’m a dog trainer and animal lover wanting to walk and watch dogs for my community. I professionally train dogs with years of hands on experience from training and walking neighbor’s, family’s, and friend’s dogs. I want to have genuine connections with my returning pups and help maintain peaceful downtime at home. I am familiar with different dog training tools and methods so when caring for your dog I can ensure your pup gets the same structure as they do with you. If supplied with a retractable leash or long line I would love to take your dog to play fetch, run, and explore at a nearby park, beach, or field. I love to tackle puppy behaviors with positive methods and offer tons of solutions to typical puppy shenanigans when dog sitting. Un-house broken, teething, and high energy pooches are welcome and wanted! Wednesday/Friday are my anytime service days! I offer pet sitting, walks, and check-ins all hours of the day. I train dogs privately weekends and Tuesday/Thursday. There are only morning/evening timed services on these days such as walks and check-ins. Mondays I do not offer morning services, but afternoon/evening times are good to go for walking, check- ins, and dog sitting. I want to love and dote on your dog as much as I do my own, showering them in attention and playtime while I’m with them. When walking a new dog I get a rundown of known behaviors, tools, or reactions to be aware of, and will ensure the current methods you use are understood and applied correctly. If there is no preferred method or procedure for walks, I’ll bring my bag of treats, toys and poop bags then off we go! When dog sitting or check-ins let me know your dogs preferred feeding schedules and daily routine so I can keep your dog steady along their regular path. If there’s any house rules I should know for your dog such as no pets on the furniture or in specific rooms I will ensure they’re followed.

About: I have been a dog/cat owner since I was two years old and there is no pet I do not love. I have owned German Shepherds, Australian Shepherds, Mixed breeds, a Papillion, a Great Dane as well as a Himalayan and an Orange Tabby cat. I am able to spend a lot of time with any age pet and treat them as if they’re my own. Being disabled I’m home a lot. I have a fenced in backyard where your dog would be free to run and play. I use a walker. My home has an elevator. Therefore, it is not a problem to let them out frequently. Just let me know what your dog loves and I will make sure they have the best time possible! I do not work. I am disabled. Therefore I’m home a whole lot, probably too much. This enables me to spend quality time with your pet. I have a fenced in backyard. I do not have any dogs or cats of my own. Therefore, I am able to devote all my time and attention to your loved one.

FAQs for House Sitting - Tuckerton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Tuckerton on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 486 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Tuckerton. 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 Tuckerton 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 Tuckerton 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 Tuckerton 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 Tuckerton. On Rover:

  • 95% 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.
