“Melissa was great! This was my first Rover experience so I really had no idea what to expect but melissa went above and beyond my expectations! She put me at ease while she watched my babies and provided updates while I was away!”
“Sarah made sure that all of our pets were taken care of and received tons of love and attention while we were away. She is also experienced with caring for rabbits so I knew that our bunny was in good hands and would be able to exercise his legs. I highly recommend her and will be booking her for future pet sitting needs!”
“Absolutely will have Jess back. The care and attention to detail provided to our Aspy girl was over the top. She even had a last minute family cat guest added and embraced him with much love and care as well! Looking forward to having Jess back! Highly recommend’”
“Maddie did a wonderful job watching our three pups. She is very patient with them and it’s evident by the way they are drawn to her that she loves them and is good to them. She kept our property very clean and was very respectful. I recommend her highly!”
“We needed a pet sitter for our big vacation, and we really like Samantha after having her pet sit several times now. She did a great job of keeping the cats happy while also staying in our home so we knew the house was ok as well. We get pictures and updates, and she always responds quickly if we check in.”
About: I have grown up with many animals in my family childhood home and it’s was always my responsibility to take care of them so it is like second nature to me. I have one dog (Aussie) and two cats (domestic short hair) I currently work full-time Monday through Friday, but I’m available for morning and evening visits during the week, as well as most weekends. Whether you need daily check-ins, walks, or care while you’re away for the weekend, I’ll make sure your pet receives dependable, loving attention and stays on their normal routine as much as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, and exercise needs. I always make sure doors, gates, collars, harnesses, and leashes are secure before heading outside. I’ll treat your home with the same respect I would my own and provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I have had various dogs since I was a child including dachshunds, jack russels, and chihuahuas. I’ve always helped around the house and with the animals. (We’ve even had goats, chickens, goats, and a pig! So I know how to handle different dynamics.) I have trained and taken care of my own dachshund puppy over the past two years. I’ve taught him tricks, crate trained him, and navigated how to walk on a leash properly. As an early grad I am working to build my schedule with work. I make time for what’s important to me and that includes YOUR FURRY BABIES! I do have one part time job but I am very flexible with my availability. If you prefer me to be present at the house 24/7 I will! If you are okay with me working a shift or two while petsitting I can do that as well. All I need is communication! I will act and provide my services based on you and your pets needs. I am comfortable to give medicine, take your pets out for potty breaks any time they need, to crate them or share a bed for my stay.
“Lauren is amazing! She watched our 16 week old golden retriever puppy! She was able to stay on top of his high energy, feed him, and make sure he was goi g potty! She communicated with us really well! Highly recommend her☺️”
About: I’ve been a pet owner my whole life! I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. From puppies to seniors, and everything in between, I can care for a wide range of needs. I am a recent college graduate, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I am incredibly flexible and able to work with you and your pets’ needs! I am very careful of your dog’s boundaries, needs, and quirks! I can enforce commands and corrections if necessary (trained commands, being crated, or outside time). I also have some experience with *minor* reactivity—specifically food and resource guarding. Your dog’s safety and trust is my number one priority; I learn their body language and I do not push boundaries!
“Jackie stayed at our home all week with our cat and dog. She kept in touch with updates and pictures. She was responsive to communications and very pleasant. She kept our home clean and tidy. We really appreciate the care she provided to our pets and our home!”
“Christina is so sweet, caring, and easy to work with! She met with us beforehand to talk to us and meet our dog. She took care of our dog while we were getting married, and it was so nice to know he was in good hands while we were away for the weekend! We appreciated the pictures she took of him/updates she gave us!”

“Hailey was great and really helped me out after a sitter cancelled last minute. My dog really liked her and I liked seeing pictures and knowing how she was doing while I was away”
“Meghan stayed three nights in our home with our Belgian malinois and everything went super smoothly! This was our first in-home boarding experience with our dog, and we were so happy to return to a calm, happy dog who would normally be very anxious after out of home boarding. She sent lots of updates/pictures and always responded in a timely manner.”
“Imani went above and beyond taking care of our two large pups. The house was tidy when we came home and they even helped get the snow off the driveway for our return. She sent pictures throughout the stay of the pups and took them on walks and played with them outside in the backyard as well.”
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs of multiple family members and friends. I love to walk dogs and spend time with them as well! I live across from a park, so walks are very nice and long. I have a flexible summer internship where I am looking for hours during the day to walk/look after dogs and other animals. My availability depends on the day. I am looking for multiple times in the day to either let a pet out or take them for a walk. I have a yard without fences where a dog can run around. I have plenty of room in my house for an animal to walk/play around. I am able to supply food and water for pets in my home.
About: Having owned pets my entire life, I take note of the specific, well-outlined needs for each furry friend and I will always be happy to help! I am currently working full-time (Fri-Mon). My pet care days would on my off days which are Tuesday-Thursday. If weekend evenings are needed, I am also open to negotiation. I like to have a meeting with the owner and get an understanding of the needs of the pet prior to sitting for smoother process.

FAQs for House Sitting - Tuckerton
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Tuckerton on Rover is $83.25 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,075 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.

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.
