“Christina did a fantastic job watching Hank and Milo. She followed my instructions to a tee and I came back to a spotless house and very happy pups. I would definitely hire her again.”
“Bailey was absolutely wonderful! She took excellent care of both my dog and cat, and gave them so much love and attention. I came home to happy pets and a spotless house, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Bailey was reliable, thoughtful, and kept me updated with pictures and messages. (She even helped me on short notice!) I could not have asked for a better sitter and will definitely book with her again. Highly recommend Bailey to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pets and home!”
“If I could give Robin 10 stars I would. Robin took such good care of my dog, followed all of my instructions, and went above and beyond to make him comfortable and happy. I cannot express enough how much I appreciate her efforts, her professionalism, and her genuine, caring nature. I highly recommend Robin.”
About: Hi, I’m Natasha! I’m new to this app, but have lots of experience walking dogs, daily check-ins, and house sitting. I have 2 Pomeranians, Hazel & Jasmine and a cat, Maple, who live with my mom currently and I visit frequently. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to check in with, feed, play, and stay over night with their pets. I have experience with watching puppies, 3+ dogs together, as well as cats and dogs living in the same home. I work in a pediatric dental office 3 days a week, and work at my local yoga studio so I can spend time with your fur babies on my days off. I’m available for walks or check-ins on Wednesdays, and Fridays, and house sitting on the weekends from Thursday night to Sunday. My availability currently is: •Wednesday mornings before 11am. Afternoons between 12:30-6pm. •Thursday evenings after 6pm. •Friday mornings before 1:30pm. Late afternoon/evenings after 3:30pm. •Saturdays and Sundays any time! I’m happy to work with pets of all shapes, sizes and demeanors. I appreciate any information about your pet’s special needs and behaviors ahead of time. I will make sure your pet’s schedule is followed closely while you’re away. My priority is that they feel safe and at ease with me.
“Anna did a great job with our 7 month old puppy! We were so nervous using a stranger for the first time, but she was very communicative and took such good care of him. We appreciated the pictures she sent us for check ins too. Definitely recommend!”
“Heather was beyond amazing!! She went above and beyond with her stay here with our 2 pups. They are both very high energy and she was able to wear them out day in and day out. She was extremely neat and tidy while house sitting and made sure the dogs were well taken care of. Previously, it had been stressful leaving our dogs for trips but Heather communicated very well and sent photos and videos throughout the day so we did not have to worry at all. I would recommend her to anyone as she is the best sitter I have met. She is well worth the price as she will love your animals like her own and give them their own mini vacation. I can not recommend Heather enough 😊”
“Thank you so much, Amy! We love having her watch Fred. He is well taken care of with lots of pictures and she’s always updating and asking questions. Amy left our house spotless as well after a trip away. Thank you!”
“Kara did a fantastic job with our two big dogs who can be a handful! She communicated great, sent lots of cute pictures and followed our instructions perfectly! Highly recommend!”
About: Hello my name is Eve! I have been a very big animal lover since I was a little girl always being drawn to the dogs and always finding the dog at other peoples houses. I had a dog for quite a long time and took care of him as best as I could when he was sick with cancer. I constantly hangout with my dog that is now 4 years old, swimming in pools, going on long walks, and giving so many cuddles and scratches. I of course give him treats that are well deserved lol. I also recently just got a puppy i attended to her when she broke her leg as a Young puppy and made sure she was happy and healthy. I also raised her and she is now the cutest 1 year old! I have experience with little and big dogs as well, I'm happy to do whatever it is that makes your dog feel safe and happy. I promise to take care of your animals as well as love them!! I’m currently in school, but luckily it’s all online! So I will be available most days out of the week. Tuesdays-Thursdays are usually the best for me! I sadly am unavailable on the weekends for now. Most days I am available at any time. I have two dogs at home, I feed them and love them every day as well as walk them and play fetch every day! I have a fenced backyard as well as a swimming pool! That my own two pups loveeee to swim in!! I have many toys they can play with as well as a safe neighborhood. My two dogs are friendly and would make your dog feel less anxious. I have a crate that is available if needed
“Jolie was easy to schedule with, super responsive, and took great care of my pups. She was extremely thorough in making sure she understood their needs, sent me lots of pics, and left the house very clean! Highly recommend.”
“Alyana took great care of our home and of our precious cat Lela. She kept me updated and sent lots of pictures. She left our home clean and tidy. Lela can become stressed when we are gone. We came home to a relaxed happy cat. I have her sitting for us again in September. Very happy with her services.”
About: I don’t just provide basic pet care - I take the time to understand each dog as an individual. My background has taught me how to read body language, respect boundaries, and build trust with dogs who may need extra patience or support. I’m comfortable maintaining detailed routines, administering oral medications, supporting senior or recovering pets, and providing the calm, attentive care that helps dogs feel secure. With a lifetime around animals and hands-on animal welfare experience, I bring both compassion and practical knowledge to every visit. Animals are already a meaningful part of my everyday life. I naturally incorporate pet care into my routine through outdoor time, activity, patience, and connection. I enjoy getting outside, staying active, and creating enriching experiences for animals, whether that’s a walk around the neighborhood, playtime, mental stimulation, or simply providing companionship. My goal is to make your pet feel like their normal routine continues - even when you’re away. I believe pets are most comfortable when they can stay in the environment they know and love. For in-home care, my priority is maintaining your pet’s normal routine while providing a safe, calm, and trustworthy presence in their space. I treat every home and animal with the same respect and care I would want for my own - following your instructions closely, respecting your home, and paying attention to the small details that help your pet feel secure.
“Perfect!! Was able to get away with ease and confidence that my furrbabies were in good hands. Received pics of them throughout Michelle's stay and she even did extras as taking out the trash and picking my tomatoes!!! I would highly recommend Rover and Michelle for your pet needs!!”
About: I have owned and cared for pets my entire life! My current family consists of two cats, a dog, fish, and even an axolotl! I have cared for the pets of my friends and families for years and I am looking to expand my resume outside of my immediate circle. I work part time and I’m available all day/night on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. I work Tuesday-Friday and am available before and after work on those days. I will work with you to ensure everything is done correctly with your pet! I am flexible and open to any routines your pet has.
About: I am currently a proud pet parent to two dogs and a cat - a 12 year old hound/retriever mix, a 6 year old Aussie, and a 15 year old Siamese cat. My pets are part of my family, and I would love to take care of yours while you are at work or away. Whether your have athletes or couch potatoes, I look forward to meeting you and your Best Furry Friend(s)! I have experience working with dogs and cats of all ages, including puppies/kittens and seniors. I am currently taking a work break, so I have plenty of time to care for your furry friends. For in-home boarding, I will be with your pets most of the time, though I may need to step out to run errands etc. When we schedule boarding services, I will ask about your pets' specific needs for walks, potty breaks etc. and work my schedule to accommodate. My aim is to stick as closely to their regular routines as possible while you are away. I treat your pets and home like they are my own. Whether I am helping with check-ins during the day, or staying in your home while you are away, my priority is the safety and comfort of your pets. This includes ample exercise and walks, scratches and love, and making sure that they are properly fed, attended to for medications, and are let out for potty breaks. Dogs will be leashed at all times for any walks, and under my direct supervision while outside in their own yards.
About: I got my first dog when I was really young and have been taking care of my family’s pets since the age of 10. I am hardworking, caring and want to provide the best experience for you and your pet. I am currently states away from my two dogs and would love to get so extra love spending time and caring for your pets while I’m here! I am a helping hand for anything your dog may need, whether it’s high energy play time or calming them down. I am happy to send updates and let you know when the job is complete. I’m currently a full time professional dancer training during the week and teaching dance at night. But am available to drop in for quick visits when needed. My weekends are fully open to spending time loving and caring for your pets. I will care for your pet with love, patience, and care. Although I am unable to watch them in my house, I will gladly care for them at yours! I can take them on walks, play with them, feed them, stop for quick visits or bathroom breaks, and give them love each time. I would love to give them someone to play with so they don’t get lonely.
“Sophia was great with Taco and Brutus! She was responsible and did an excellent job with communicating. Her experience with dogs in the past helped with making us feel comfortable and we will definitely be using her services again! She was courteous and clean in our house as well.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wildwood
Sarah was an absolute dream to work with — highly communicative during the entire process, which made figuring things out easy. She came over to meet our dog before we left and was so sweet and pleasant and competent. While we were gone, she sent pictures every day and followed up with details about how he was doing. She paid attention to details and I could tell our dog was so well-cared for. Had the best experience with Sarah! Will absolutely be booking with her again!
Razan was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of my dog while I was away and sent frequent updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly very caring. She also left my house spotless, which was so appreciated after being away. I would absolutely recommend Razan and would happily book with her again!
Seth was amazing to work with! He went out of his way to meet our dogs before we had to leave and took time for them to get comfortable with him. He was very interactive and communicative while we were away, and knowing they were being well taken care was a relief! We will definitely reach out to him again!
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! He took care of our 4-month-old puppy for two weeks, and anyone who has had a puppy that age knows they can be A LOT of work! 😅 He was incredibly attentive, patient, and caring with her, and went above and beyond just watching her. He actually helped reinforce training and worked with her on good behaviors, which we really appreciated. It was so reassuring knowing she was in such capable hands while we were away. He kept us updated, took great care of her, and clearly put a lot of time and effort into making sure she was happy, safe, and well cared for. We came home to a happy puppy who had clearly been loved and well looked after. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely great with dogs. We’ll definitely be booking with him again!
Once again, Rachel did amazing caring for our 2 high energy dogs while we were away for the long weekend. She did excellent making sure our dog with a chronic illness was taken care of and supplied endless frisbee time for our other. I highly recommend Rachel!!
Kelly is an outstanding petsitter and homesitter: My wife and I get frequent updates and pictures letting us that our dogs and cats are doing well, which is a huge relief while we’re out of town! She also takes care of our house and leaves it clean for our arrival. Unquestionably Kelly is the best sitter we have had in the many years we have had pets!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Wildwood is $65 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $98 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 , 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 .
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 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.
