“Haley is AMAZING. She just stayed at our place and watched our 6 month old pup for a week while we were gone on vacation. Our puppy is super active and Haley was phenomenal with her. She communicated so well with us, gave us updates and kept Maisie on her routine. When we got home, Maisie was so happy and we could tell she was loved while we were gone. We will definitely use Haley again and recommend you hire her too!”
“Aiden was amazing at taking care of our babies while we were away for a wedding. She was great at giving us updates and left our apartment in immaculate condition. We could tell our pets were well loved and give the best treatment. Would recommend Aiden 10/10 times.”
“Shea is a very nice respectful and polite girl. Her communication is always timely. She was punctual with her arrival time, allowing us to leave a few minutes earlier than planned for our trip. She wasn’t afraid to send a text later in the evening when our dog was having trouble settling down. She sent a couple updates and photos during her stay with our dog and everything went well. We will definitely keep her in the rotation for when we need care for our dog!”
“Kayla stayed at our house for a week with our 2 dogs and she did an excellent job. We highly recommend her for any of your needs with babysitting your animals when you’re thinking of getting away. We will definitely be using Kayla in the future.”
“Sammy watched our 2 dogs, 2 bunnies, 2 fish, and entire house while we were on a weeklong family trip. She was amazing! The animals, who’ve previously had anxiety after being boarded, were happy and healthy upon our return. It was like we’d been home the whole time! The house and yard were also well taken care of. We appreciate having someone we can trust!”
“We could not have asked for more! Chris was great in every way: the dogs were happy, the house was perfect. He went above and beyond to make sure that everything went smoothly for all of us. Can't wait to have him back soon!”
About: I have always had a pet dog and ever since I was a teenager, I’d dog-sit for family and neighbors. Since college, I’ve been pet-sitting ajd dog walking on a more professional level. I’ve babysat for a few hours, simply for a walk, but have also watched multiple high energy dogs for up to two weeks. I’ve cared for dogs under a year old and up to 13 years old. I’ve always loved dogs and find them very easy to get along with and care for no matter their size, age, or personality. I have also cared for kittens a few weeks old, senior cats, administering medication orally, grooming them if they have long hair etc. Cats have a very different energy than dogs but I enjoy taking care of them just as much as dogs. I am currently in between jobs so I have a lot of free time to care for other dogs, whether it is a short walk or a multi-hour play date, etc. I always follow whatever guidance I am provided by pet parents. This means if you are only comfortable with your dog on a leash or lead while in your yard, I strictly follow that. If there are specific commands to use, certain behavior to watch out for or discourage, particular toys or activities they enjoy, I always follow what information I am given and am always open and communicate well about any issues or concerns that might arise on my end.
“Molly was wonderful with our high needs elderly dog. Molly was communicative, responsive, and sent many updates and photos throughout the day. We hope to have Molly watch our dog again and highly recommend Molly to anyone looking for a sitter!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that I've fostered and owned a variety of dogs since I was very young. My experience includes volunteering for local shelters, fostering and pet sitting. I've cared for all types of dogs, from large and small breeds to energetic puppies and cuddly seniors. I can assure you that your dog will be well taken care of! Animals are my passion and joy. I'd love to care for your furry friends! My schedule will always be built around your pet's care, as my part-time work and volunteering allow me to be very flexible with my schedule. Safety & trust are the biggest concerns when accepting a stranger to watch your animals, but I can assure you there is nothing to worry about when your pet is in my care. As a veteran and animal lover, I intend to make you and your furry friends' experience as professional and safe as possible.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sherwood Manor
Haley was wonderful and the best at caring for our girls during our weeklong trip. She was amazing at letting us know how everything was going back home with regular updates and our girls clearly adored her every second she was there. We were so lucky to have Haley and will be grateful to have her stay again in the future!
We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. Shekeyla was warm, professional, thoughtful, detail-oriented and brought such calm, positive energy from the moment we met her. Our 17-year-old dog has kidney disease and requires medication, so leaving her isn’t something we take lightly – but we felt completely comfortable and confident in her care. Shekeyla kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which meant a lot. One of our favorites was a picture of the two of them snuggled up together – something our dog doesn’t even do with us anymore! At this stage in her life, we’re mostly just food providers and chauffeurs to the Jersey Mike’s parking lot for her favorite pastime: scouting for snacks. It was clear our dog was not only well cared for, but genuinely happy and relaxed when we returned. We highly recommend Shekeyla and will absolutely be using her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Sherwood Manor
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Sherwood Manor on Rover is $75.88 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 1,237 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sherwood Manor. 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 Sherwood Manor 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 Sherwood Manor 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 Sherwood Manor 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.
