“Alaya is a fantastic sitter who honestly goes above and beyond to care for your pet. I've used her services 2x so far and will continue to use her services in rhe future. Truly one of the best on Rover.”
“Sicilia was incredible. My cat LOVED her—which I could tell from all the pictures she sent me! She kept detailed notes through the Rover Cards, messages, and on the printed directions I left. She was above and beyond what I imagined and actually allowed me to not stress or worry about my cat’s wellbeing while I was gone. 1000% recommend Sicilia.”
“Marlena was great! I am very wary of who I let watch my dogs, and she was so confident, inquisitive and kind that I trusted her immediately. She sent regular updates and photos, and my dogs were very happy with her! I will definitely be using her again in the future.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - West Cape May
We had such a wonderful experience with Alayna! She took amazing care of our 15 week old corgi, paid close attention to his routine and individual needs, and made sure he was happy and well cared for. Knowing he was in such good hands gave us so much peace of mind while we were away for our rehearsal dinner and wedding. She kept us updated with pictures and messages throughout his stay, and we could tell our pup was genuinely loved and cared for. I really appreciated that we were able to do a meet and greet before Alaya dog sat. We would absolutely trust her with him again!
Marlena was absolutely amazing! This was our first time using Rover, and she made the experience better than we could have imagined. She was incredibly responsive, answered all of our questions, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Marlena took wonderful care of our dog and kept us updated with thoughtful messages and adorable pictures throughout the stay. It was clear our dog was happy, comfortable, and in great hands. We would highly recommend Marlena to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and exceptional pet sitter!
If my cats could leave a review, they’d probably give her 10 stars! ⭐️ Excellent communication, updates, and she took amazing care of my kitties while I was away. It’s such a relief to know your fur babies are in good hands, and she treated mine like her own. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 475 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across West Cape May. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .
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.

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 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.
