“Kory was absolutely fantastic! She kept in touch with us the whole time, which really put us at ease while we were away. Our dog was well taken care of, and she did a great job looking after our house too. When Hurricane Helene messed with our travel plans, Kory was super flexible and understanding, which we really appreciated. We came home to a happy pup and a clean house—couldn’t ask for more! Highly recommend Kory for anyone needing a reliable, communicative, and all-around awesome pet sitter!”
“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”
“Claire was perfect! She sent photo updates everyday so we knew our furbabies were well taken care of & happy. She was so friendly & reliable. Truly cared about our dogs. And was very accommodating of their routine. We will definitely be calling on her again when we go out of town.”
“This was my first time using Taylor for house/dog sitting. She communicated often with texts and pictures and my home and furry children were well cared for! I highly recommend Taylor and look forward to working with her in the future.”
“Rachel was amazing! She’s super sweet and took such great care of our dogs and our home. My dogs felt extremely comfortable with her, which means a lot to us. She went above and beyond, she even cleaned up the room she stayed in, washed the sheets, and made the bed before leaving, which she definitely didn’t have to do. That really shows how much she cares and goes the extra mile to do things right. We absolutely love her and will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Kelly came in a very difficult time for us when we had a family emergency. Is answered immediately when we needed her and took great care of our dog and home. Kelly is truly special and I will absolutely use her again. Thank you Kelly!”
“Melissa took amazing care of my dog and my home while I was out of town. I truly felt at ease as soon as I met her and the entire time I was away. My dog was happy, well-exercised, and clearly loved and cared for- which means everything to me as a pet owner. Melissa was responsible, attentive, and communicative- keeping me updated and making sure everything ran smoothly at the house as well. I returned to a very content pup and the house maybe better than I left it, lol. It’s such a relief to find someone trustworthy and genuinely caring. I would absolutely ask her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for dependable and compassionate pet and house care !”
“Sydney took excellent care of our 2 fur babies while we were abroad for a week. Communication with her was seamless and transparent throughout our time away. She provided us with daily updates accompanied by photos. One day, when our senior puppy experienced stomach issues, Sydney demonstrated exceptional care. She promptly contacted the Rover vet and kept us informed. She even stayed longer to make sure our baby was okay. And when our senior pup had accidents, she cleaned it up like a pro leaving no trace behind. Thank you very much Sydney! Max and Bismark enjoyed their time with you! We will most definitely reach out to you again next time we need someone to look after furbabies.”
“Alyssa did a great job watching our pup while we were out of town for a few days. She sent us pictures everyday. She checked up on our pup as agreed, we’ll definitely ask her to watch our Little Lailah in the future.”
“Cindy has been amazing with our puppy! This was her third week puppy sitting for us, and I couldn’t be happier with how well she takes care of him. She’s reliable, attentive, and clearly loves what she does. Every time I come home, my puppy is happy, well-exercised, and relaxed. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
“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. ❤️”
“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!”
About: I have years of experience caring for a wide variety of dog breeds, as well as cats. From high-energy playtime and daily walks to providing the gentle, attentive care that senior dogs need, I know how to keep pets safe, happy, and comfortable. Neighbors, friends, and family have always trusted me to feed, walk, and look after their furry family members. I maintain a flexible part-time routine, which gives me plenty of dedicated time to focus on your pets! I am fully available for weekend boarding, and on weekdays, I am ready to step in for walks, playtime, and companionship anytime. Because my schedule is highly predictable, you can count on consistent routines and timely updates for your furry family members. Keeping pets safe and comfortable matters most here. A spacious, completely enclosed yard offers plenty of room for supervised outdoor activity. The household runs quietly, adjusting smoothly to each pet’s habits. Crating happens when preferred by the pet or requested by you. Every detail, including feeding schedules, medications, and special directions, is followed exactly as given.
“Adahy is wonderful! He sends frequent updates so you always know what’s going on with your dog. He even stayed late when he knew our flight was delayed so our dog wouldn’t be alone.”
“Jackie was great with our cat and our home while we were away. She was able to recognize signs of stress and adjust the care she provided to make sure our cat was happy and comfortable (he is typically on the skittish/nervous side as it is, so we wanted to make sure he was in good hands while out of town). She also sent us photos and updates while we were away. She was very kind and respectful. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Payt did a great job with my dog Mila. She left my place clean and Mila was well cared for. I appreciate that I could go to my son’s wedding without worrying about Mila. Thank you Payt”
About: I've loved animals all of my life. One of my passions growing up was to be a veterinarian because animals need a loving voice to not only speak for them but to care for them as well. As your pet sitter I assure you that your pet will be left in joyous and gentle care. I am self employed with open availability. Most of my work consist of advanced scheduling so my availability to play and care for your pup is open! I have a fenced in yard with a friendly pup to keep your pet company. We also have plenty of dog toys to choose from and if your pet is a treat lover, we have those too! My home is also smoke friendly located in a community friendly subdivision.
“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!”

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 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 3,845 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in White Forest. On Rover:
- 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.
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.
