“Claire is outstanding sitter. She is very engaged with our pet for the entire duration of the trip. She continuously sends photos. Knowing our pet is happy and cared for makes our trips even more relaxing and enjoyable.”
“This was our first time booking with rover. Rachel’s profile stood out to us since she had pictures of schnauzers on her page and that’s what we have. Rachel came to our house a day early to meet our girls and get acquainted with them. I was so happy to see that our timid rescue girl even put her paws on Rachel’s leg, which was a huge indication that she felt comfortable with Rachel. She took great care of our girls and I had no worries about Rachel being at our house. She confirmed the times and sent us pictures of our very relaxed girls and even had one of them camped out laying beside her. We are definitely going to be using Rachel again!”
“Sydney was great. She was excellent with communication, and I especially appreciated her asking what she could be doing to help our shy pup feel more comfortable. She sent photos and spent a lot of time with him and was super accommodating to working with our other farm pets. We are so thankful we found her and would definitely book again!”
“Carole was an absolutely wonderful pet sitter! She stayed with our 1.5-year-old rescue puppy and our 11-year-old cat, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was friendly, reliable, and consistently sent plenty of updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Carole spent quality time caring for and playing with our puppy, making sure his energy and needs were met, while also being respectful of both pets’ unique personalities and boundaries—especially important for our older cat. It was clear she truly cares about animals and takes the time to understand them individually. We would highly recommend Carole to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter, and we”
“Kory was open to Emmy’s “quirks” and lovingly handled them. Prior to sitting, Kory provided information, level set her personal schedule so that we knew what her time looked like, and kept us informed. I would definitely ask Kory to sit again. ?”
“Cindy was a great sitter for Tippy! He is a very anxious dog. She was patient with him and waited until he came to her. She worked with him to get him to eat while I was gone. I highly recommend Cindy! She worked with me when I had to leave a day early. She came in and took care of things.”
“Mai and Jonathan are wonderful dog sitters - going above and beyond to care for our two dogs. They took excellent care of our home and communicated with pictures and videos throughout their sit. Since they both work from home, they were with the dogs far more often than other sitters, and we are so appreciative of their kindness and enthusiasm with our babies. Highly recommend!”
“Taylor was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of our pup Lewis and our home. She kept us updated with photos every day we were gone. Our pup Lewis loved spending time with Taylor, playing in the yard, going on walks, and snuggling. Taylor truly went above and beyond!”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care of our dog and cat received while we were away. Serenidy went above and beyond, showering them with love and attention. Not only did they feel comfortable and loved, but our home was also in great hands!”
“Had a few bumps and adjustments, but Jessica was very responsive and took care of my pups and home while I was away. I have two senior dogs and Jessica was great in ensuring they got their medicine in time and had plenty of potty breaks. They enjoyed her stay!”
“Stephanie was great with my two dogs! She communicated clearly and I never once had to worry that they were in goods while I was away. I have a high strung working line GSD who insist on lots of play and Stephanie picked up on all her games to keep her entertained inside while it’s too hot outside. Already have another stay planned!”
“Lauren was absolutely amazing!! I had to find a sitter last minute, and I loved her bio the moment I read it. She responded quickly to my request and made sure to nail out the details for my dog’s stay. I could tell she’s experienced and loves animals, and so could my dog! She sent regular updates and pictures, and when I saw my dog frolicking in her backyard and snuggled up later on in the evening like he forgot I had dropped him off was all I needed to set my mind at ease haha! Lauren is a fantastic sitter and I will absolutely be booking her again. Thank you so much!!”
About: Your pet baby will receive loving care when they are with me. My husband and I treat fur babies like our own six grown children. I have businesses online. My schedule is flexible. I can work during various times during the day. We can discuss you and your daily needs for your fur baby. When walking your dog, I will give him or her my full attention. I walk a dog on the side of me away from the street.
“Luna had a great time with Sara! Sara is a good communicator and sent lots of updates so I never had to worry how my girl was doing while out of town. She followed all instructions and we came back to a happy, content pup! I’d definitely use Sara again in the future.”
About: I have walked and cared for a variety of kinds of dogs for a variety of years and always include play/pet time. I have helped with puppy training and also cared for the seniors who need a little extra love and patience. With 2 high-energy dogs of my own I understand the importance of a long walk and time to burn off some energy! I currently work part-time on the weekends, so my greatest amount of flexibility is during weekdays. I do my best to schedule during times when I have availability to spend adequate quality time with the pets! Unfortunately due to my own animals I am unable to provide care for other animals from my own home, however I have experience staying in the homes of a variety of other clients which has helped keep their animals comfortable and on their usual schedule.
“This was our second time booking with Kasianay and it won't be our last! Our dog, Mable, loves spending time with her. She is an excellent house sitter and did a fantastic job communicating with us while we were away.”
“Summer is incredible!!! She goes above and beyond for our pups and even cleans the house before she leaves. Our pups love her so much and so do we! We couldn’t be happier we found her.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in White Forest is $50

I cannot recommend Claire enough! I had something come up last minute and needed to travel out of town, but my dog had just undergone foreign body surgery and required someone highly responsible, attentive, and experienced to care for her. She needed multiple medications given at different times throughout the day, and I needed someone I could fully trust. Claire went above and beyond. She handled all of her medications perfectly, followed her recovery instructions, and gave her the care that she needed. I had 0 worries while I was away because I knew she was in the best hands. I am so grateful to have found her on here and for the amazing care that she provided. I will absolutely rebook with her for any future needs!
Janelle was an absolute blessing to our family! She took exceptional care of our three rambunctious mini dachshunds, giving us complete peace of mind so we could fully relax and enjoy our 30th anniversary trip to Mexico. Throughout our time away, she kept us updated with thoughtful communication and plenty of photos of our fur babies, which meant so much to us. When we returned home, we were amazed to find the house not only spotless but actually cleaner than when we left. She had even organized my disaster of a pantry—something I had been putting off for far too long! Her attention to detail and willingness to help in every way are truly remarkable. And as if that weren't enough, she welcomed us home with a delicious pasta dish and a loaf of homemade bread. That level of thoughtfulness and generosity is rare and speaks volumes about the kind of person she is. Janelle went far beyond anything we could have expected. She served our family with such kindness, care, and grace, and was truly the hands and feet of Jesus during a time when we needed it most. We are incredibly grateful for her and cannot recommend her highly enough. ❤️
Kory was very reliable, communicative and did a great job watching both our home and our dachshunds. She followed our instructions and the house was clean when we came home. I am VERY protective and particular when it comes to having someone watch my dogs but Kory did a fantastic job. I highly recommend her services!
Lexi did a great job watching our pets and home while we were away. She was very communicative, kind, and made sure both animals were well taken care of. Everything went smoothly and we felt comfortable knowing our pets were in good hands. We’d definitely trust her to watch them again!
First day with Maddie watching Olive and they had a great time! Olive got all her snacks and treats and was so happy when I got home. I could tell she had a great day ❤️ it gave such a peace of mind to know Maddie was here with Olive keeping an eye on her. Would highly recommend Maddie - she is so kind and professional. Olive loved her from the minute they met.

FAQs for House Sitting - White Forest
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in White Forest on Rover is $77.7 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 3,877 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across White Forest. 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 White Forest 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 White Forest 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 White Forest 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.

- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 98% 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.
