“Abby is amazing! She provided consistent updates and pictures while house/cat sitting. I never once felt uneasy or uncomfortable being away from my cats because I knew she was taking such good care of them. Even though my cats were too grumpy to fully engage with Abby, she respected their space and let them work up the courage to approach her. She also left our home very clean and organized. We highly recommend her for some peace of mind. We’re looking forward to booking with her again.”
“Eric was great with my two cats, one of which is very anxious and took some serious coaxing and warming up to get her out and about. He even bought them a laser to play with them as we did not have one ourselves (just other toys)! Eric left the house in good order and was very respectful of the space. He kept in communication with us, which was much appreciated as we were first time Rover users and have never left the cats for that long before. He was patient with us in that respect. :) Thanks Eric!”
“Alexis was truly phenomenal, and I can’t recommend her enough! She went above and beyond every expectation we had. From the very beginning, her communication was outstanding. She kept us updated with thoughtful messages, adorable photos, and detailed check-ins that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She was also an incredibly respectful house guest, leaving everything spotless and treating our home with such care. Most importantly, she absolutely spoiled Shadow! She made sure he had all of his favorite things, gave him so much love and attention, and kept him happy, comfortable, and entertained the entire time. It was so clear that she genuinely cared for him as if he were her own. Coming home to a happy, relaxed pup says everything. Alexis made the entire experience stress-free, and I am so grateful for the care she provided. We will absolutely be booking with her again and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like family!”
“We couldn’t be happier with Emily's care for our Beagle, Winnie! She took care of her for five days and went above and beyond to make sure we felt at ease. Emily provided regular updates with photos, asked thoughtful questions, and made sure Winnie’s routine was followed perfectly. We also felt completely comfortable having Emily stay in our home—she was respectful, responsible, and left everything in great shape. Winnie clearly adored her, and we’ll definitely book Emily again in the future! Highly recommend!”
“Aubrey was great! She provided regular updates, left the home in perfect condition and made me feel at ease knowing Theodore was cared for. I will absolutely book again!”

“We Loved having Kimmie take care of our fur baby! What a peace of mind knowing someone was there tending to all her needs! We will use her again next time we need someone to watch our girl! Thank you!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was little, including my own pit bull and shih tzu. Having experience with both high energy and low energy dogs has taught me how to adjust my care to fit each pup’s needs. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and provide loving attention to their pets. Whether your dog needs active playtime or a calm, cozy companion, I’ll make sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m available throughout the day and week. This allows me to give your pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care whenever they need it. When caring for pets in their own home, I do my best to keep their routine the same so they feel comfortable and secure. I’ll make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of walks or playtime, and always have fresh water. I’ll also give them lots of love and attention, and I’m happy to send photo updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience in pet care, I have developed a deep and compassionate understanding of animal’s needs and behavior! I am an owner of two dogs (ages 3 and 5), and will treat your fur babies as my own. They are truly a part of the family and should be treated as such! I have experience with puppies as well as senior animals and can administer medicine, help with training, and go on walks with them! I currently work four days a week but would be available on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays to help out with your pet care needs! I am more of a home body on the weekends so I often do not have plans and would be able to care for your pets with no issues! There’s no better way to fill time than to take the best care of other’s pets! Animals mean the world to me and I aim to aid your animals in the way that you want them cared for. If they need to be crated, I can ensure that they are not in distress. If they have a special routine, I will make sure to adhere to that. I want your animal as comfortable around me as they’d be around their own family!
About: I treat each pet as if they were my own, paying close attention to their individual needs and personalities.

With me, your pet gets lots of love, and playtime. My schedule is open and flexible — I always do my best to fit you in, even with other reservations throughout the day. Weekends are also available for a little extra, and rates can always be discussed to find what works best for you! Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities! At my home, I create a clean, cozy, and pet-friendly environment where they can feel comfortable. When caring for pets in your home, I follow all your routines and special instructions to keep everything familiar and stress-free. I always keep a close eye on pets during playtime, walks, and feedings to make sure they’re safe and having fun.
About: I’ve always taken care and had animals since I was just a little girl, I love animals and I think they are absolutely amazing, although this will be my first time dog sitting professionally I have always taken care of my parents friends animals and I take care of my roommates dogs all the time, and I have cats of my own that I take care of. I currently work 4:15am-9:15am some days, and some days I also work 4:15-12:45 but my schedule is always open since I get home early I have the whole day to take care of any animals. I do prefer to go to your house to dog/cat sit, and or to walk your pets, I am moving into an apartment complex so taking care of them in my area would be harder
“Nikki was a great sitter and respectful guest in our home. We booked her for a lengthy duration of overnights and couldn't be happier. Our Bayne warmed up to her and her pet baby quickly, which was a pleasant surprise...as it usually takes him a while with new people. I truly appreciated Nikki's daily check-ins, sticking to the plan, and her attentiveness to Bayne in our absence.”
“Perfect! Our sweet fur babies were cared for so wonderfully, Yi sent many updates and pictures of our 3 boys and they seemed to enjoy her company as well. This was our first time using rover and we were so glad with who we allowed in our home and around our fur babies!!”
“Aaliya was the BEST dog sitter. i was so nervous leaving my dogs over the holidays and they were just as comfortable with her as they were with me. would 1000 times over rebook with her! She sent me so many photos and videos to keep my mind at ease.”
“Amber was such a delight, knowing our puppy Zoey was well taken care of & loved. We loved seeing pictures of her every day. We will definitely be using her again. Thank you Amber”
“Debora exceeded all expectations! Her care for our cats was exceptional, especially her gentle approach to medication administration and her patience with our shy ones. The detailed updates provided wonderful peace of mind. We returned home to happy, healthy cats and a perfectly maintained house. Debora is simply the best!”
“Yoli dog sat for my two pups (pit mix and lab mix). She did an exceptional job handling their schedules (food, sleep, and walks). She left the house better than she found it and sent many pictures of my babies while I was away. Yoli will definitely be at the top of my list for sitters!”
“Julie did an amazing job taking care of our sweet pup while we were gone for two weeks. He went on lots of adventures while we were gone and got lots of exercise. He even seems a little sad that they are gone now so my pup really enjoyed their company. I would use them again a bad recommend to others who are looking for a reliable dog sitter.”
“Words do not express how grateful I am for Temi. I was a first time Rover user, for an overnight stay for 5 days. I have two dogs that vary in temperament. We originally were simply going to board our dogs at a local pet “hotel”. These plans fell through, and we decided to give Rover a try. From the moment Temi decided to accept our overnight booking, she was VERY professional and personable. She asked all the right questions to understand how to best support our two fur babies while we were out of town. Her communication is TOP NOTCH, and she continued to update us via the APP. It felt good to get pictures and videos, which confirmed our first babies were happy and well cared for. Temi is amazing because she immediately caught on to helping our younger fur baby with improving her leash manners. In today’s society it’s not always you find someone who goes above and beyond. Temi did, and I am so appreciative that she accepted our booking. She will now be our go to for any out of town visits. Thank you 🙏🏾 so much Temi!!!”

We love having Yoli come stay at our home to take care of our dog. She is conscientious and leaves our home in better condition than we left it. And best of all, she loves our dog like her own (and our dog LOVES her). I recommend Yoli to everyone! I will always ask her first if she is available.

Rylan was amazing in every aspect, organized, efficient and good communicator. She provided live-in house sitting and dog sitting for my 2 dogs, one of whom is elderly and the other has special needs. The special needs dog required a time consuming feeding process, twice a day, and takes 5 medications. Rylan had no problems with any of these detailed instructions. The house was left spotless. The dogs were happy and healthy when I got home. I would not hesitate to use her services again and highly recommend this very capable and trustworthy woman.
We absolutely love, Justine! She was the epitome of professionalism, she was on time, is a great communicator, gave daily updates, extremely responsible, dependable, and trustworthy. And most importantly, my two dogs adored her! She was so sweet and patient with my quirky pups, both of our fur babies can be challenging in different ways, but Justine handled them effortlessly. We highly recommend Justine to care for your pups!

FAQs for House Sitting - Whitlock Farms
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Whitlock Farms on Rover is $39.96 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 4,462 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Whitlock Farms. 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 Whitlock Farms 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 Whitlock Farms 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 Whitlock Farms 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 Whitlock Farms. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
