“Cheryl, again, gave us the gift of a worry-free vacation away from Gracie. This was a week-long trip out of the country. Cheryl kept us updated everyday, managed all medications, did Gracie's PT, and left the house spotless. Best of all, we knew Gracie was getting so much attention and love. It's hard to leave a senior dog--unless you're leaving her with Cheryl.”
“Haile was absolutely wonderful! She connected with my dog so easily, and you could tell right away that she truly loves animals. My dog felt comfortable with her from the start, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was attentive, caring, and communicative throughout the entire time.”
“Quinn is a sweet person and a loving animal sitter. She seemed very trustworthy too. My poor kitty has PTSD and suffers from nervousness and Quinn had him on his back submissive showing his belly the day after I left.🐈 I wish I could use her again but she will be in college for my next vacation. She also has a professional camera and sent me amazing pics of my little man the 4 days I was gone. 💙”
About: Hey there! I'm Ambrosia! You can call me Amber. I've been caring for pets for as long as I've been caring for babies. See it goes hand in hand. Every baby that I've nannied usually has a furry frind with them. The fur baby came first then the actually baby. When caring for the baby I often took a liking to the furry friend too. That meant playing and feeding the dog whenever I wasn't taking care of the baby. Often times I would let the dog out to do his buisness. When the child got older and we went on walks the dog of couse came too. As a former athlete and someone who lives an active lifestyle, I love going on walks and runs. So if your dog is a runner that's no problem for me; just let me know. Just like kids, I can understand the fustration when a pet does not listen. Being a nanny helped me to gain a lot of patience, so if your pup isn't a good listener it's ok! Ms. Amber has the time to wait it out. On the other side of that we all love a little reward so don't be shy to let me know if you have a reward system for your pet. I love dogs yound and old! As caregiver I strive to give your pet the best experience while they are in my care. I look forward to meeting and tking care of your furry friend! As I am not working a traditinal job right now, my schedule is pretty flexiable. Pet care can fit into my daily routine around your pets needs. Whether that be for an early morning walk or a a mid day pop in for cuddles and play, I can be the sitter you rely on. When caring for your fur baby in your home, I strive to keep a clean and safe enviorment for your pet and myself. Any mess that might have been made while caring for your pet will be cleaned up. I want your pet to have the best experience with me and whatever malkes them comfortable with me I'll do. I understand that we all need time to warm up to eachother. I keep a calm attitude and love to givethe equal amout of space and cuddles.

“Antoinette was exceptional! We recently learned that our dog has a heart condition and we were worried to leave him alone for the weekend. Antoinette communicated with us very regularly, giving updates on when he ate, took his medication and what he was up to throughout the day. She genuinely seemed to care about him, even though they had just met. She went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable leaving him in her care and she left our home in immaculate condition. I highly recommend Antoinette to anyone looking for pet care; we absolutely would book again.”
“My dog is very excitable and can be difficult to handle but Yeji was very understanding and helped to calm him. I think he has a new human friend and now I will feel better leaving him.”
“We couldn't use our regular dog sitters for a trip so decided to use Rover. Robyn was everything we could hope for and more!! She took care of our dog(Pepper) and kept us informed while we were away. It helped make our time away more enjoyable knowing how well Pepper was being taken care of!! Thank you for everything Robyn!! We got home and Pepper was happy to see us and the house was as we left it. We really appreciated al Robyn did all week with Pepper!!! Really made our trip that much more enjoyable knowing Robyn was here watching him. We also really appreciated all the updates and pictures! Robyn was TERRIFIC!!!”
“This was the second time Kayla cared for Bealey and she sends great pics and updates. She’s awesome and I will continue to ask for her when I need care for my Bealey girl.”
About: I’ve always had a special place in my heart for animals! I’ve grown up with lots of cats, dogs & more! I currently work at my local animal shelter as a Behavior trainer, and I treat all of the fur babies as if they were my own until they get their furever home. I care about each of them and only wanna make them feel love special and cared for! Since I'm working part-time right now, I have plenty of open time to dedicate to your fur baby. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. My days are flexible, so I can give your pup my full attention - whether that's a nice long walk, playing fetch at the park, doing food puzzles for mental enrichment, or just hanging out for lots of love and pets while they enjoy a bone. I'm happy to stick to whatever routine makes them most comfortable. As the owner of a 1.5-year-old rescued Doberman mix, I understand how much care, exercise, and enrichment dogs need to thrive. My boy gets daily physical exercise plus mental stimulation through enrichment, puzzle toys, and Kongs. I bring that same standard of care to every pet I watch - just let me know your pet's routine and needs, and I will follow it to the T. As for Safety is always my #1 priority - whether we’re out and about in town or on a quiet hike in the woods.
“Aleya was AMAZING! She took excellent care of my dog, sent a lot of pictures, she’s great at communicating everything and she’s a very happy person! Will definitely book her again!!”
“Ana was amazing! She spent so much time with our senior beagle, Kirby. Walking and exercising him regularly, hanging with him and house sitting at the same time. She was responsible, communicative, knowledgeable and so pleasant sending pictures and updates. We had complete confidence with her and would recommend her to others.”
“Julian did a great job with both my 100 lb dogs and my 17 year old cat! Julian is very responsive and a good communicator and he has a pleasant upbeat attitude. He was careful about giving medication to two of my pets, asking for clarification when needed. I recommend Julian as an excellent pet sitter.”
About: I’ve spent the past year caring for dogs and cats like my own. Lots of walks, cuddles, and playtime! I’m super patient and always take time to get to know each pet’s unique personality. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine as a full-time sitter. My flexible availability allows me to dedicate plenty of time to walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, and maintaining your pet’s normal schedule.

We have used Ryan as our dog sitter several times. This time he stayed with our dogs for the past 10 days. He sends us photos every day and we look forward to seeing them. We trust him to take care of our dogs and our house while we are traveling. Highly recommend him!!
Kaye was incredible. She stayed at our place over the Christmas holiday while we were out of the country, and watched over our dog & my mom’s dog as she was also traveling with us. This was an unusual situation because the dogs do not ordinarily live together - Kaye was magnificent at both navigating the little tensions that arose between them, and at keeping us posted about the every-day goings on and how she was handling it. We got updates routinely, and she really went above and beyond in terms of taking care of the house while we were away. Some choice words I would attribute to Kaye: trustworthy, responsive, and thoughtful. Will definitely be hoping Kaye is available the next time we have our-of-town plans!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Wildwoods is $47 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $72 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 Wildwoods 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 Wildwoods 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 Wildwoods 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.
