“Here's a warm, genuine review you could leave: Jai was absolutely amazing with Roo, especially while she was recovering and not feeling her best. She went above and beyond to make sure Roo was comfortable, carefully administered all of her medications, and kept me updated every step of the way. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Roo was in such caring and capable hands while I had to leave the house. It's never easy leaving your pup when they're under the weather, but Jai made the entire experience so much less stressful. I truly couldn't have asked for a better sitter, and I would trust her with Roo again in a heartbeat!”
About: I've been actively caring for animals for more than 14 years :). Growing up, I regularly pet-sat for family friends, and my family often took in stray cats and litters of kittens, giving me hands-on experience with pets of all ages and personalities. Today, I have three cats of my own and continue to pet sit for friends and family. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs playtime, companionship, a consistent routine, or extra patience and attention, I'm committed to providing loving and reliable care while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a full-time job with a very flexible hybrid schedule. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, I can work from anywhere, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide care, check-ins, walks, or companionship throughout the day. I currently specialize in occasional bookings, vacation care, and drop-in visits. At this time, I’m not accepting recurring weekly walking schedules. I'm also fully available on weekends. At home, I care for my three cats with my partner, which allows me the flexibility to accommodate pet sitting while ensuring every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. I enjoy spending time with animals and am committed to keeping them happy, comfortable, and on their normal routine while you're away. I provide care that is tailored to each pet’s needs and routine, whether in my home or in a client’s home. In my client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal schedule as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, playtime, litter box care, and any specific instructions provided. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, affection, and companionship while their owners are away, along with regular updates for peace of mind. In my own home, pets are cared for in a calm and safe environment. I ensure they are supervised, given a consistent routine, and treated like part of the family. I currently have three cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to create a clean, low-stress space where animals feel secure and cared for.
“Aaron was wonderful and truly loved spending time with Gracie and Roxie! Aaron sent pictures and updates daily, which was greatly appreciated! He let me know that Roxie took a little bit of time to warm up but then was herself with being a big snuggler, and that Gracie did great on her walks. Last time we had made this trip we had an 8 hour delay, and asked Aaron ahead of time if something like this happened again could he stay, and he said he could. Luckily all went well and we were able to arrive home on time to two very happy and very well cared for pups! Will definitely use Aaron again!!”
“Mackenzie stayed with my dog overnight in my apartment and everything went great! She was very communicative and responsible and I felt very comfortable with her at our meet-and-greet. During her stay she sent a photo and provided updates, and she followed all the instructions for Osito’s feeding and walk schedule. My apartment was very clean when I returned and exactly how I left it. I will definitely use her services again in the future and recommend her for pet sitting!”
“First time using Rover and she was amazing! Super communicative, sent updates/pictures, and took such good care of my pup. Definitely made me feel comfortable leaving him and I’d 100% book with her again!”
“Graham did an amazing job taking care of our two fur babies! We were nervous to have to go out of town over Christmas and not be able to travel with them, but after talking & meeting with Graham we knew immediately that they would be in great hands. We have a 10yr old (very anxious) Boykin Spaniel and a 7yr old 13-lb mixed breed, and we hired Graham to stay at our house with them over the week we were out of town. Graham sent multiple pictures and updates to us via text each day, which was so fun to see how they were doing and made us appreciate the time he took to share everything with us. Graham is a very talented musician and played music for them each day, and I could tell they had both been played with and loved on the whole time we were gone. Separately, he did a great job of taking care of our house including watering our plants, bringing in the mail, and even placed his linens in the washing machine at the end of the stay! He really went above and beyond in caring for them (and our home). We will definitely be re-booking with Graham in the future and I can't recommend him enough if you're looking for someone trustworthy to care for your pets!”
“Jeanette (Donna) took great care of our pup. She regularly checked in with photos. Jeanette (Donna) confirmed start time the day before and verified we were returning as planned. Our pup was in great hands with Jeanette”
“Lauren was amazing with my 7 year old and 6 month old labs! I was anxious about leaving for a week to another country but she made me feel so at ease knowing she was with them throughout the day and night. Her experience also was a plus! I’ll definitely be using her again!”
“Absolutely amazing care and such a sweet person. Carla came over before our doggy staycation to meet Blaze and Luna and they were immediately in love with her. We got daily update photos and they seemed to be living it up! Thank you so much Carla!”
“Tonya was a fantastic sitter for our 2 senior dogs. She was incredibly responsive providing daily updates and photos and gave the dogs so much love and care while we were away. We will absolutely be using her again for our dog sitting needs!”
“We are obsessed with Laura! Our boys, Murphy and French Toast, had a great time hanging out with Tobe! We had some travel issues with flights delayed, having to get a rental car and took much longer to get home and Laura made sure the boys were all set before we knew when we would be home! Loved getting cute pics while on vacation! Definitely going to be booking again for our next vacation 🫶🫶🫶”
“We LOVE Caroline! I have had such a hard time finding a reliable sitter until her. She is so sweet and made us feel so at ease leaving our babies. Will definitely be our go to sitter from now on”
“Felt very heard and listened to when it came to what I wanted for my cats. Was very respectful of my home and everything. I have a cat who has had a lot of problems in the past but she handled everything with grace and made my feel comfortable about leaving my babies. Overall, AMAZING!”

Carla was amazing! My kitties absolutely loved her. She took such great care of them and sent me the best photos while I was away, which I really appreciated. It was so nice knowing they were happy and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Carla and would happily have her kitty and house sit again! 🐾❤️
Sanna was an awesome house sitter. The dogs loved her and she sent a ton of pictures throughout the days of how the dogs are doing. The house was in one piece when we returned and we do plan on using her the next time we are out of town. Highly recommended to anyone who wants happy pups!
The best dog sitter I’ve ever had! My dog has separation anxiety, and Athena took such amazing care of him while I was away.She sent frequent photo updates, communicated wonderfully, and always asked questions if she wasn’t sure about something, which gave me so much peace of mind. She also took great care of my home. I couldn’t recommend her more and will definitely be booking with her again!!
Liz was fantastic! She sent plenty of photos, checked in regularly, and responded quickly whenever I reached out. My dogs clearly loved her and were happy and well cared for. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!
Katlyn is absolutely fantastic. She is kind and thoughtful and made us feel at ease about leaving our pup, Albus, for the first time. She shared pics and updates throughout the evening and it was clear that Albus had a blast with her. I highly recommend her and I hope she will come back to watch Albus again in the future.
Shiran was over the top wonderful. Kept me in the loop on how the 4 dogs where doing, sent me pics on the daily so I could see them., swept the mopped when whe knew we were coming home, dishes where cleaned that she used, even did a rug clean when the dogs made a mess. Highly highly recommend Shiran for your sitting needs. Thanks you so very much Shiran!!!
Tristan did an amazing job caring for our four pups! It was clear they were happy, relaxed, and well cared for while we were away. He kept us updated with plenty of photos and thoughtful stories about our fur babies, which gave us so much peace of mind and made us feel connected to them the entire time. We returned to a clean home and four very happy dogs. We would gladly trust Tristan with our pups again!
We couldn’t have asked for a better house and pet sitter! Aaron took such great care of our dog and cat while we were away and gave us so much peace of mind. He kept the house exactly how we left it, sent lots of photos and videos, and it was clear our pets were very loved and well cared for while we were gone. Being able to see updates and happy pets made all the difference. We’re so thankful for his help and will absolutely be calling Aaron for all of our future pet-sitting needs!

FAQs for House Sitting - Wildwood
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Wildwood on Rover is $42.17 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,653 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wildwood. 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 Wildwood 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 Wildwood 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 Wildwood 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 Wildwood. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
