“Chelsea was absolutely fantastic with our two dogs! She was incredible timely every day, sent consistent photos and updates throughout the day, and even printed out sweet photos of our pups for us when we got home. It was evident that Chelsea took great care of our home and pets, we would definitely book again!”
“I cannot recommend Dominique highly enough! She went above and beyond in every way while caring for my cat, Sebastian. Dominique's attention to detail was outstanding - she took the extra time to wash Sebastian's ceramic food bowls and cleaned his litter box daily without me even having to ask. She sent frequent updates and pictures throughout my trip, which gave me complete peace of mind knowing Sebastian was happy and well-cared for. What truly sets Dominique apart is how she treats each pet as an individual. She made sure Sebastian got plenty of playtime and affection every day. Her patience, thoughtfulness, and joyful energy created exactly the kind of comfortable environment my cat needs. When Dominique is caring for Sebastian, I never worry for a second. She takes the time to listen to your pet's specific needs and is incredibly accommodating in creating a unique, personalized experience. If you're looking for a cat sitter who genuinely cares and treats your pet like family, Dominique is the one!”
“Joanne was great! This was our 1st time having a pet sitter and she completely understood our nervousness and special pet needs. My baby was even looking for her today, so she will be missed, and she's welcome to visit any time. I highly recommend her 😍”
“Stephanie was so great. She has great communication skills, she pays attention to detail, and most importantly took great care of my sweet boys. I appreciated how she kept me in the loop with her schedule and how the boys were doing while I was gone. She’s great and will take amazing care of your pets!”
“Lara was very responsive when setting up the visit and agreed to meet ahead of time to go over some of my pups quirks. She kept me updated throughout her stay and Jambo seems very happy and calm when I returned home. I would definitely book Lara again.”
“Jillian was fantastic with Jenna and I won’t hesitate to use her again when we need. She stayed overnight with Jenna while my sone was away for the weekend and took great care of her. Wonderful.”
“The second time I have asked Karena to look after my dog, and this time was difficult, as the house lost power for 18 hours during the middle of a heat wave, while the internet was effectively out for two full days. Karena was a great sport, extremely communicative, patient, and showed real care and concern for my dog under the circumstances. I really appreciated this and would absolutely have her back.”
“Meghan was amazing! Our dog loved her and she made sure he is comfortable and happy while we were gone. She sent us multiple updates with pictures of our sweet little pup. She followed all his feeding and walking routines to the t and communication was stellar. We couldn’t be happier. Our Shurik definitely found a new friend.”
“Louise is amazing! She is the first sitter we used after adopting our very energetic puppy, and she did such an incredible job keeping her happy and safe while making sure our other dog and cat were as well. We’d absolutely trust her to watch our babies again.”
“Morganne was fantastic with my elderly dogs. She was very patient and paid attention to every detail of their care. One of my dogs had a small emergency, and she was able to assist and keep me updated. The communication throughout the process was so good that I never felt worried about my dog's well-being. I will definitely reach out to her again.”
“Shalisha was fantastic with my picky little dog, Joplin. She sent me pictures of Joplin several times a day. I would highly recommend Shalisha!!!! Also, she showed up promptly to our meet and greet and to the house the day we left. I will be using her for my out of town trips from now on!”
“Rachel was so great! She was super communicative and sent great photo updates. We felt really comfortable leaving our two dogs in her care. She also took great care of our home! Definitely recommend and hope that she’ll be available for future trips!”
“Montana is our dog’s new best friend! 🩷 She was so kind, responsive, and made sure to pay attention to every little detail! When we first met Montana she made us feel so comfortable right away and we knew we could trust her with our fur baby and home! Montana stayed at our house and was such a pleasant guest! We appreciated her cute photos and updates throughout her stay as well. We are booking her services again so that our dog can have another wonderful weekend while we are away! 🩷🩷🩷”
“Camryn is an awesome sitter! She took such good care of our girl, was super flexible and communicative, and we never had to worry at all while away on our trip! Our dog absolutely loved her, we got daily pictures and updates, and we had complete peace of mind knowing she was cared for so well!”
“Chrissonna is so amazing with our animals! Our crew can be a handful, but I always feel confident and comfortable leaving them all with her when we go away!”
“Natalia was so amazing watching Gunnar and staying at our house while we were out of town. She was so incredibly sweet and caring with him, and we could tell right away that he was in great hands. Gunnar absolutely loved her and was so happy and comfortable with her! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would 100% recommend her to anyone. We will definitely be reaching out to her again to watch Gunnar!”
“Awesome experience - will definitely look to book with her again next time we're out of town. We received great pics while we were away. It was nice seeing our dogs snuggling up with her looking comfortable and relaxed. One of our pups was having some allergy issues while we were away. We received pics pretty quickly when she started looking a little rashy and asking us to confirm how we wanted her to handle it (as we had discussed before the trip). She reacted fast and our dog was happy and healthy by the time we got home with no rash or redness at all. We're very happy to recommend her. Our dogs and our home were in great hands while we were away.”

Chelsea was absolutely amazing! It was our wedding day, full of lots of stress and running around and she was calm and cool and one thing we never had to worry about was our babies. She took great care of them and put our minds at ease. She was polite and caring and sensitive to our chaotic day. She sent us pics and notes and was so unbelievably caring and thoughtful. Book her!
Stephanie was a 10/10 find on Rover! I’ve used Rover 4-5 times in the last year and Stephanie was one of the best sitters for my girl. She was extremely communicative the entire process from initial message to departure. She followed my instructions to a T. She is a lovely, lovely woman and a pleasure to engage with overall. I recommend her to any and all pet owners seeking care!
Kristin rocks! She stayed at our house 2 nights with our dog and 2 cats. Our pup is a bit anxious but seemed to be relaxed, all things considered. Kristin sent multiple updates and followed our instructions to a tee. Highly recommend!! If we weren’t moving, she would be our new go to sitter!
Link was great with our dogs, and I know our very energetic dog, Dante, appreciated the play time. Link kept us up to date on things along the way. He also was great about allowing our dogs to free roam and also spend some time outside (chihuahuas all love to sunbathe). He left everything of great order and the dogs, which were happy to see us, were also very happy overall which reflects Link’s patience and care with them.
We had such a wonderful experience with Kiera! She was absolutely amazing with our dogs and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. From the very beginning, she was kind, dependable, communicative, and clearly cared about our dogs as if they were her own. Kiera kept us updated, was attentive to their needs, and made sure they was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was such a relief knowing she was in such good hands, and we could truly relax and enjoy our time away without worrying. We would absolutely recommend Kiera to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving, and responsible pet sitter. We will definitely be using her again! 🐾❤️
Joanne is great with dogs. She sat for a week with my four large dogs. She loved on them,played with them and completely gave me the piece of mind I needed. Joann sent pictures everyday and described their days together. If you want someone who is competent,loving and communicates effectively, Joanne is your sitter.
Malik was excellent with our 2 oversized Doodles! Our boys are 4 and still have lots of energy. Malik handled them easily and based on photos he sent we could tell they were very comfortable with him! That isn’t always the case for one of our boys, one of them can be hard to win over. We are super thankful we found him and will definitely use him in the future!
Shannon has watched my dogs numerous times over the years, and she is absolutely wonderful. She was always so gentle and caring with my older dog, Elektra, especially toward the end when she needed extra care and attention to stay comfortable. My younger dog, Matrix, absolutely adores her. He can be pretty needy, and it’s clear she gives him the love, attention, and cuddles he craves when I’m away. I also really appreciate the regular pictures and updates she sends so I know he’s happy and having a good time!

FAQs for House Sitting - Wildwoods
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Wildwoods on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 3,047 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wildwoods. 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 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.
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 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 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 Wildwoods. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
