“Monica was a blessing to have take care of Lulu! She sent me pictures and videos daily letting me know that Lulu was in good hands. The house was left clean and she even washed and dried her sheets. Would definitely recommend Monica to take care of your 4 legged family members!”
“Dominique was an outstanding sitter for my pup Ranna! Not only is she highly experienced with sitting dogs that have very specific personalities and needs, she’s extremely responsive and always provides me with timely updates and cute pictures of Ranna while I was away. I’m thrilled to have a great sitter to lean on when I need someone to watch my pup.”
“Victoria was great! She knew how to read my dog so well, made sure to understand his needs, and was communicative with updates. I will definitely use her again.”
“Link was awesome and took great care of our elderly Doberman, Dixie. He spent the week with her and kept us updated on her and sent pictures. We had a slight change in plans at the beginning of the stay and he was more than accommodating and flexible. We highly recommend Link and wouldn't hesitate having him take care of Dixie in the future.”
“Jillian was a great sitter and companion for Potter! She was thorough and kept me in the loop with everything going on at home, which allowed me to know he was well-looked after and I could enjoy my time away. I would love to have her look after Potter again in the future!”
“I can't say enough good things about Shalisha. From the moment we met, I knew my pets were in great hands. She went above and beyond to ensure my furry family members were well cared for, loved, and happy while I was away. She sent regular updates, including pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My pets were relaxed and content when I returned, a true testament to the excellent care they received. If you're looking for someone who is reliable, trustworthy, and truly loves animals, I highly recommend Shalisha. I will definitely be booking her again in the future!”
“Lia is wonderful! She kept us updated with pictures throughout the weekend and kept our pups happy. She left our house perfectly clean afterwards and is incredibly responsive. Both of our pups adored her and we will absolutely use her again for our next trip.”
“Christine was absolutely wonderful. I knew both of our pets were in good hands the entire time we were gone. We came back home to a clean place (cleaner than how we left it) and very happy pets. We would 100% recommend her.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was around 7 years old. I’ve owned cats, dogs, hamsters a rabbit and a snake! I’ve always had a strong passion for animals which eventually led me to becoming vegan almost 7 years ago! I’ve pet sit and gone on walks for family and friends over the years. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby! This is my full time job and I’m currently trying to build up clientele so if you don’t see a time available that you need, please reach out so we can work something out. I am not able to board at my home due to my own animals but I am able to provide overnight services at your home.
“Karleen went above and beyond while caring for our home and pets. Not only did she handle all the basics flawlessly, but she also took extra time to make sure everything was truly taken care of, sending regular updates, checking in thoughtfully, and handling small details we hadn’t even thought to ask for. It was clear she genuinely cared, not just about completing the job, but about doing it well. We came home to happy pets and a house that was just as clean (if not cleaner) than we left it. That level of attention and reliability is hard to find. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust Karleen again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who truly goes the extra mile.”
“Alisa and Alex were wonderful! We felt completely confident and relaxed on our trip knowing Cabby was not only being taken care of, but loved on as well. And Alisa is a talented photographer! We have never had such high quality pictures of our girl. Our house was clean and well cared for too!! We are very grateful and would book them again in a heartbeat.”
“Jeffrey was so great taking care of our dog, we got morning pictures and I felt so relieved we had him to watch Pete! He was also a super respectful house guest and helped us with some packages that came through. Can’t recommend Jeffrey enough!”
“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.”
“Erica was absolutely amazing and I would recommend her to anyone! She was so sweet and took great care of both of our dogs while my husband and I were out of town. She sent multiple updates with pictures of them throughout the day. She stayed at our house and the place was spotless when we returned. My dogs were very comfortable around her and got lots of cuddles while we were gone. I will definitely reach back out to Erica again when needed!”
“Shannon was incredible with our pup! She was so communicative, detail oriented, very patient, and just all around kind! Would absolutely love to have Shannon sit for us again!”
“Kendall was very communicative and reliable during her time watching our 9 year old lab. She sent pictures so we knew Trooper was enjoying his time with her. She was very easy to work with and dependable. Reccommend!”
“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.”
“Bradley and Stephanlee were amazing!! They stayed at our home for 9 days and cared for our bernedoodle. They were responsive, polite, and frequently sent us updates and pictures. We are so grateful for them and we were able to relax and not worry about our girl!! Definitely recommend.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wildwoods
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.
Absolutely amazing experience — we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our three boys! She was incredibly attentive with Hanks medications, gave them tons of love and playtime, and handled each of their very different personalities and needs with ease. One of our dogs, Arnold, has some behavioral challenges, and she handled him like a true pro. Moose can also be pretty anxious, and she made him feel completely comfortable and secure. Knowing they were all happy and well cared for allowed us to actually relax while we were away. She kept us updated with pictures throughout the stay, took wonderful care of our house, and went above and beyond in every way. We came home to a sweet note and printed pictures of our three boys waiting for us — such a thoughtful touch and the perfect ending to an already fantastic experience. We would 100% trust her with our dogs and our home again and can’t recommend her enough!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Wildwoods on Rover is $49.95 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 3,062 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.

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 97% 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.
