About: I provide calm, attentive care and treat every pet like my own. I’m experienced with different personalities from energetic to calmer animals that need patience and a gentle approach. I stick to their needs and routines, give lots of affection, and pay attention to behaviour and health changes. I’m reliable, communicative, and focused on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently in school and have a part-time job but I am free to take care of your pets most weekdays after 3 and weekends. When caring for pets in a clients home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules, walking routines, litter box or yard clean-up, playtime, and any special care instructions closely. I respect the home by keeping spaces clean and treating everything responsibly. I pay close attention to pets behaviour and comfort levels, and send regular updates and photos so owners feel confident their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they’re away
“Andreea did such an amazing job watching our dog and cat while we were gone for 2 days for our wedding. Andreea stayed in contact and provided regular updates on both animals. Our dog has separation anxiety, Andreea did a really good job keeping her calm and making her as comfortable as possible while we were away. We have already booked Andreea for another stay. Would highly recommend booking Andreea for any kind of pet care!”

About: I have taken care of several dogs and cats of friends and families throughout the years. They have relied on me to make sure their fur babies get walked, fed, bathed and played with while they were away! I currently work full time but have long weekend availability. Starting at 11am on Mondays and finishing at 12pm on Fridays. But am also available after 5 Tuesday-Thursday I don’t have any pets myself. But often walk and take care of my familys dogs. I can easily crate and feed dogs and cats.
“I couldn't have asked for a better person to care for my pets and in fact my pets loved him so much I was worried when I got home they wouldn't have missed me at all. Brandon cared for them and followed the instructions for the house impeccably. Communication was clear and timely and he even helped me out when my flight was delayed. I would use Brandon a thousand percent again.”
“Paula was excellent! We had to go away and needed a sitter over night for our boy and she was phenomenal. We got updates throughout the evening and morning after, pictures of our dog and her together and I know he got lots of love! She is very outgoing and I can tell my dog likes his new friend! I will definitely be going to Paula for any of our future needs!”
About: I am currently studying animal science at the University of Guelph and hope to become a veterinarian, so caring for animals is something I am truly passionate about. I have spent recent summers caring for pets, giving me experience caring for a wide range of personalities and needs. I have grown up with pet cats of my own and I have experience administering medications and managing health needs such as seizure care. I have pet first aid certification, so I am confident in my ability to respond appropriately in stressful situations. I always aim to provide calm, attentive and reliable care tailored to each animal's unique personality and needs. I currently work weekend evenings as a server. However, throughout the week I am able to plan my schedule around visits when needed. Since caring for animals is something I enjoy, I can make it a priority in my daily routine. I provide care for pets in their own home where they are most comfortable. I always follow each owner's routines and preferences closely, whether that includes feeding schedules, administering medication, litter box cleaning, playtime, or giving pets companionship and attention. I understand every animal has different needs and personalities, so I aim to create a calm, safe, and stress-free experience.
About: I own a 3year old poodle dog. I know how to make them behave and understand the basics. I play with pets and can feed them. I do not have any full time job or work to do right now. As I pet my poodle dog I have keen interest in other dogs as I can utilize my free time playing and spending time with them. My pet does have breakfast and then I take her on a walk and make sure she behaves outside gently with other people and I take her to leash free dog park so she has her enjoyable time.
About: As a multiple dog Mom, I have LOTS of experience with puppies and dogs of all ages. From whelping puppies to caring for senior dogs in their final days I’ve been there. I treat my crew like my kids (maybe better) 😂 because they are family. I could spend hours snuggling and playing because it brings me as much joy as it does them. I am passionate about teaching my dogs manners on leash and around the house, so I have done lots of training with my crew and helped others as well. I know it can be hard to trust people with your furbabes which is why I decided to offer my services, because I would want someone like me caring for my crew when I couldn’t be there. I am a SAHM with 3 older kids, (18,14,11) so I am available during the day and evenings through the week and weekends as well as through the night should that be required. I am available to come to your home to care for your dogs to make things more comfortable and convenient for you and yours. I can follow your routines and instructions as needed. I could accommodate in my home in special circumstances with notice, we have different sized crates available and a fenced in back yard, however we do have multiple dogs in the home and this could essentially feel intimidating for some dogs.
“Brittany did such a wonderful job keeping our cat fed, cared for, and entertained! We had total peace of mind knowing she was giving him snuggles and love. Brittany was attentive, sent lots of photos and videos, and responded promptly to messages. Our house was spotless when she left. We will definitely rebook her for future house sits :)”
About: I am conveniently located near both 401 and 403 highways! I have been a Registered Veterinary Technician for 13 years. I am now staying at home but would like to continue caring for pets. We have a dog of our own as well. He loves all dogs and enjoys having furry playmates. I am able to give medications, including injections, such as insulin. I can also do some basic grooming if needed, such as nail trims and brush outs. There is lots of room to run and play on our 2 acre property and my 2 kids who love animals and give them lots of extra attention. I look forward to meeting everyone's fur babies and caring for them as if they were my own!
“Ellie was amazing with our 3 little trouble makers! They all warmed up to her very quickly, and made our evening that much more enjoyable knowing the pups were in great hands. She was also extremely flexible when plans began to change. The weekend absolutely would not have been the same without her. Thanks again, Ellie!”
“Walter stayed with our crew for an overnight and was absolutely wonderful our 3 dogs. He has the calmest and gentlest way about him and even our chihuahua who struggles with new people warmed up to him quickly. Walter send lots of pics and gave us updates throughout his stay which helped us know they were well taken care of. We will definitely use Walter again and highly recommend him! Thank you!”
“Alissa was amazing with my golden retriever. She looked after him for a week and communicated updates, photos and even got him a toy. She went above and beyond as my boy had some separation anxiety and loose stools, and she knew exactly how to care for him and let me know right away. She left the home very tidy. I would 100% trust her with my pet again.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Woodstock
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Woodstock on Rover is $62.41 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 635 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Woodstock. Enter your postal code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Woodstock 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!
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.
- Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins 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 Woodstock walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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 Woodstock 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!
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, identity check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.
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 .
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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a veterinary professional or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 76% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
