“Our animals were so well taken care of and they were happy when we got home. She spent the night here but there was no trace of her being here at all. She has been very flexible with the dates because of a death in our family. I will definitely use her again. Thank you Ashley!!”
“Per usual, Jessica is AMAZING. Ultra communicative, super responsive, and very good with all 3 of our dogs - who have wildly different personalities and needs. Jessica is awesome, 10/10.”
“Ivanis did an amazing job with our 2 dogs! She was so considerate and attentive to their needs. She was also very communicative during the stay, sending us lots of pictures and updates, and took great care of our house. We would 100% recommend her and I know our dogs will be excited to see her again next time!”
“Shantae was very pleasant with my puppies and ohhh so patient. She has a very positive attitude and can keep my babies anytime. Her energy was loving and she handled my puppies following my instructions to detail.”
“Ariana was simply outstanding! She was extremely flexible with her scheduling. She provided clear daily updates with pictures and was very prompt with response to any questions we had. She followed our care instructions to the letter. Would highly recommend her and definitely will use her again.”
“Ashley was a wonderful companion to our dog, Delia, and our seven hens! She also provided comfort to us with updates that included photos of their adventures. It gave us so much peace of mind to know Ashley was keeping our anxious pup company in our home.”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for close family members, caring for their small dogs with love and patience. I also own a Rottweiler, so I’m comfortable with both small and large breeds. These experiences have taught me responsibility, trust, and how to connect with different pets, making me a reliable and caring pet sitter. I’m flexible on weekends, after work hours, and during holidays, which gives me plenty of availability to provide consistent, attentive care. I make sure to prioritize each pet’s needs while balancing my other responsibilities. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I always follow their routines to help them feel safe and comfortable. I provide fresh food, water, regular walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I also make sure to follow any special care instructions and keep their space clean. When caring for pets in my own home, I provide a safe, loving environment with plenty of exercise, play, and rest. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel happy and cared for wherever they are.
About: I love animals but can’t have pets in my apartment so would appreciate sharing that love with your pet! I have been caring for a variety of pets since 2019, mostly dogs & cats (and the occasional bird!). I have experience with dogs of all sizes (from chihuahuas to Great Danes) and most ages. I have less experience with puppies but lots of experience with senior dogs. I have experience with high energy dogs that need multiple walks a day and dogs that struggle with mobility. I have experience with dogs who require medication. I have experience with cats of all temperaments. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out. I have a fairly flexible schedule so am available during the day most days and on weekends. I have been regularly caring for my parents’ elderly Great Dane (11 years old now) since 2020. I am looking forward to spending more time caring for pets. I care for pets in their home environment according to the standards set by the owners. I am very conscious of varying family rules on things such as furniture and am happy to adhere to those expectations. I prefer to stick to whatever schedule the pet(s) are used to (regular walk times, regular feeding times, etc).
About: Hi! I'm Jacqueline, and I'd love to help care for your pets as if they were my own. As a lifelong animal lover, I know how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your furry family members. I had the privilege of sharing 15 wonderful years with my dog, and today I'm the proud pet parent of a playful 5-year-old cat. I also regularly pet sit for close friends for years now, caring for both dogs and cats while they're away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and happy while you're gone. Whether that means long walks, games of fetch, plenty of playtime, belly rubs, cuddles on the couch, or simply keeping them company, I'll tailor my care to your pet's personality and routine. I understand that every animal is different, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one feel comfortable and loved. I'm dependable, attentive, and believe pets deserve more than just the basics; they deserve companionship, affection, and someone who truly enjoys being with them. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in caring hands. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family member! I am available 7 days a week, daytime and evenings for quick drop-ins, extended hours, and overnight stays. As a cat and dog owner, I love caring for both types of pets! I am available to care for your pets in your home, whether that means a visit to care for them or staying in your home. My goal is to ensure the pet owner(s) and the pet(s) are comfortable and well taken care of.
“Brittany was very responsive to all of my communication before and during her stay at our house. She was very attentive to our dog and was very tidy with our house. We appreciate her care of our pup!”
“Sydney was wonderful-- sent us pictures, took great care of Mona, and was very patient with me when the instructions into our place were not the easiest. Excited to book Sydney again!”
About: I’m a dependable, patient, and caring dog lover who understands that every pet deserves attention, exercise, and kindness. Whether your dog needs a quick walk, playtime, or overnight care, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I treat every dog like they’re my own by following your instructions, keeping them active, and giving them plenty of attention. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands while you’re away. I’m currently available all week days before 4 pm ET. Some weekends I’ll make exceptions either the Saturday or the Sunday to do a few walks. I will only be doing walks or home sits at your house. If I am at your home, I assure you that it will be left neat and clean just how you left it. It’ll be like I was never there , and your pet will enjoy the quality time
“Marquesha was a great house sitter. She was punctual and dependable. She took care of two dogs and cats. She followed all of our directions and left our house in top shape!”
“Chloe saved the day for us less than 2 weeks before our trip, after our other sitter fell through due to extenuating personal circumstances! She was communicative and punctual throughout the planning process, she reached out when any questions came up during her stay, and she sent a cute pic of June every day. We came home to a neat, clean house and a happy, healthy dog. Thanks, Chloe!”
“Anna was amazing!!!! She helped out with a last minute request to watch our two pups and was extremely communicative, friendly and sweet. She showed up on time and the pups absolutely loved her. We will definitely book again!”
“Lois does a great job taking care of our home and our pup. We feel so much more comfortable traveling now that we know we have someone taking care of our dog and his separation anxiety.”
About: I've loved dogs all my life from my first, as a child, to my current, Niko. Niko and I have been together for 11 years. He is the second dog to my first, Chance. Chance was with me for 15.5 beautiful years before he passed in 2023. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs and I'm so ready to love on your babies. I've been encouraged for years to do something like this and now is the time to do it. I hope I get to meet your little family. I'm currently changing direction in my career. I've worked in retail for over 20 years and I am no longer interested in being in a store setting. While I transition, I would love to dive into this passion of mine. I will have open availability while in this transition. I follow the directions of the pet owner if I'm in their home and if no specific direction is given, I treat the pet as my own. I have cared for pets in my home as well and if no specific direction is given, I follow the routine of my own pet.
“Savannah is an absolute gem! She recently took care of our 3 pups and our home while we spent a week at the beach, and she went above and beyond! She made sure we were updated on how the pups were doing and actively looked for ways to help us around our home to make our return so much easier. Our pups were so happy when we came home, we could tell they received so much TLC. Highly recommend!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Sheffield Woods
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Sheffield Woods on Rover is $38.85 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 4,347 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sheffield Woods. 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 Sheffield Woods 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 Sheffield Woods 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 Sheffield Woods 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.

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.
