“Anthony did a fantastic job taking care of our fur babies and our home. We found him to be very trustworthy, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. He showed a lot of patience and compassion with our high-energy puppy, which is no small task. He kept us updated daily with messages about their activities and how they were doing, which we really appreciated. We also came home to a clean, well-kept house. It was clear he treated our home and pets with care and respect. We would absolutely trust Anthony to watch our pets and home again and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive sitter.”
“Rissa was great with our pup Charlie. He is normally shy but warmed up quickly to her! She has excellent communication skills and so the updates were spot on. It really made us comfortable while we were away knowing Charlie was being well cared for by Rissa with snuggles, nice walks, and playtime. 😊 We would definitely have her again and recommend her care.”
“Kristine was so great with my Charlie who was suffering from extreme separation anxiety and wouldn’t eat or walk outside. She actually figured out a way to get Charlie to eat and drink something by putting her bowls in my master bath next to my closet where Charlie seemed to want to be often. I so appreciate that she knew how to just let Charlie chill and kept her calm and comfortable during her stay.”
“Natallia was great with Duck! She was very communicative and made sure both Duck and I were comfortable when I had to leave! I will definitely work with Natallia in the future and highly recommend her!”
“Christine was truly the best sitter we could have asked for, and Honey and Maple absolutely adored her. She watched my girls for two weeks while we were overseas, and I honestly could not have felt better about leaving them with her. She treated them like they were her own and was so attentive to all of their little quirks. Somehow, without me even telling her, she figured out things like how they like to be tucked in when they go to sleep. 😂 She really got to know them and their personalities while we were gone. Honey and Maple are also very much sighthounds, so they come with some specific challenges. They can be picky about eating, and when they get playing too hard, they have a tendency to accidentally tear their skin. Christine handled both so well. She played with them constantly to keep them active and interested in eating, and she was so attentive to their play that she could redirect them before they got too rough. I came home to two happy dogs with no issues at all. She was also an amazing communicator and took great care of our house. More than anything, it was obvious how much she genuinely loved the dogs. I felt like she cared for them just as well as I would have, which is honestly the highest compliment I could give a sitter. I would trust Christine with Honey and Maple again without hesitation, and we will absolutely be hiring her again. If you are looking for someone who will really get to know your dogs and care for them like her own, I cannot recommend her enough. ❤️”
“Mike was fantastic with my two dogs! First and foremost, he wanted to ensure both of the dogs were comfortable with him before even agreeing to watch them, and then he also took the time to come back over the day before staying at our house to be sure the dogs remembered him. I got just enough photos to assure me the dogs were behaving and content while on a work trip.”
About: Hi! My name is Phinette, I have always been a huge animal lover since I was little and have had a variety of pets throughout my life. Growing up, I had three small dogs, a rabbit for the past 7 years (recently got a second!), have had 5 pet rats, and my family also currently has 6 cats and a pitbull mix, so being around and loving animals has been part of my life since I was born! With that being said, I am more than comfortable caring for any type of animal whether they need special care or just extra love and attention, I would be happy to help! I have lots of experience not only caring for my own pets, but other peoples as well, so I know how important it is to pay attention to the small details in an animals day-to-day to help make them feel as comfortable as possible while their family is away. I am currently a Physical Therapist Assistant student and attend school Monday through Thursday, typically from 8:30 AM to 4:00 PM. Because of my school schedule, I am most available for pet care in the early mornings and evenings during the week, as well as anytime on the weekends. I would love to incorporate pet care into my schedule! Overnight stays work best for me on the days I have school, but I am also available for drop-in visits and dog walking in the afternoons/evenings or anytime on the weekends. I am more than happy to work with you to find a schedule that works best for you and your pet and to make sure they are well taken care of and receive all the attention they need! As a pet owner myself, I know how hard it can be to leave your pet in someone else's care. I also know how important schedules and routines can be in keeping your pet feeling safe and comfortable while you are gone. I will make sure to follow your instructions as closely as possible and care for your pet the way you would yourself. I'm also more than happy to accommodate any additional needs or little quirks your pet may have to help them feel as safe and comfortable as possible while you are away!
“Chelsea took care of Charlie for a week, she sent multiple pics every day, took him outside for play and cuddled with him at night. House was clean and neat just as we left it. Our first booking with Rover and Chelsea but definitely not our last!”
“Vanessa did a great job watching our dogs and really went above and beyond when a freak storm rolled through and knocked out the power at our house for over nine hours! She was an absolute trooper and kept our dogs comfortable and happy through it all. That level of dedication and care really exemplifies the level of care she provides her customers and its why we continue to trust her to watch our dogs when we go on vacation.”
“We came back to a lovely, well taken care of home and happy dog. We seriously cannot thank Charlotte enough for the job she did. It’s nice to know that we can plan trips together out of town and not have to worry so much about Natty. Charlotte will definitely be the first person we contact for any future house/dog sitting needs!”
“Thanks to Meaghan, I was completely comfortable leaving my cat and my house in her care while away. She's a very calming presence and quickly made friends with my cat, as well as giving her medicine and watering my plants. She had a family emergency that meant leaving for the weekend but let me know promptly so I could make other arrangements while she was away. I will definitely hire her again.”
“I had a great experience with Jennifer! She stayed in my home and took wonderful care of my two very energetic (and sometimes chaotic!) dogs. From the moment we met, I could tell she was comfortable handling high-energy pups, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. She kept me updated with messages and photos, and it was clear my dogs were happy and well cared for the entire time. What really impressed me was that she even worked on some training with them during her stay. That extra effort meant a lot and showed how much she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. I came home to two happy dogs and a house just as I left it. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful sitter.”
“Kristina took impeccable care of my cat. She sent me multiple pics and video of him daily and it eased my worries about leaving him. Highly recommend Kristina!”
About: I am a private chef who spends most of the day baking, cooking, and playing with my Morkie, Brownie, and sweetie Black cat, Meryl. Brownie is small and friendly and gets along with all dogs. He has a bubbly personality, just like me! Meryl is an elder cat that prefers a sunlit window to a human but is very kind to humans and other pet visitors! I have experience with small puppies, large dogs, and cats of different breeds. I used to volunteer my time at shelters and rehoming spaces. I am home often enough to give love, attention, and potty breaks! I would love to spend time with your pet and help them feel more at ease while you're away. Available for walks and at-home check-ins! I work from home on my own schedule since I facilitate culinary spaces and non-profits. I can be flexible with different timing needs to support care! I have pet beds, feeding dispensers, filtered water fountains, and plenty of toys! I like to keep the home at a more room-temperature so pets (and myself!) can stay comfortable. In your house, I follow instructions and ask questions before I begin to care. I prefer to stay only in approved spaces in the home and know where all the needed materials are provided.
“Emily was super easy to work with. Accommodated a changing schedule. She picked up on all the pups quirks. We were happy to feel like she was reliable and we had nothing to worry about.”
“Brooke is really great with dogs! Boone seems to really like her. She sent us pictures of him throughout the day and was very responsive when we had a question. She’s flexible with your schedule and needs and does a lot to accommodate your pups needs. She slept with our pup each night.”
“Matt took great care of my two large dogs! He came to meet them prior to taking the booking so that we were both comfortable. He stayed at our house for a week and we had zero issues! He gave daily updates with pics of our dogs, which was very reassuring, and asked questions to be sure of our preferences. Upon return, our house was just as we left it and the dogs were safe and happy. I have recommended Matt’s services to a friend and will absolutely book him in the future!”
“Ella was fantastic! She was dependable and spent a lot of time with our dogs playing outside. We came home to happy, well taken care of dogs! I would absolutely trust my fur-babies with her again.”

Mike was wonderful with Oscar and Ava and took great care of them while I was away. He was reliable, communicative, and followed their routine and instructions carefully, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for dogs and my home just as I left it. I would absolutely trust Mike with them again and highly recommend him!
Vanessa was a fantastic sitter. I felt like the pups were very well cared for while we were away. They stayed on their regular breakfast and dinner schedule, their water bowls were kept clean, and they received their treats and vitamins as expected. We received close to 50 pics in a weekend span so communication was great. The house was also very well taken care of. Everything looked tidy and clean when we returned, the sheets had been stripped, and I didn’t notice anything amiss. Most importantly, the pups seemed to do really well with Vanessa. They can be very temperamental, and even something as simple as a bad grooming appointment can throw them off for a few days. When we got home, they were excited to see us but otherwise seemed completely happy and themselves, which says a lot. Overall, it was clear that both the pups and the house were in great hands with Vanessa. This coming from an extreme helicopter pup dad
Chelsea provided house sitting for our French Bulldog and English Bulldog for 2 weeks while we were overseas. She sent daily updates and pictures. The dogs seemed happy in the pics! There was a problem with our air conditioner which was taken care of the very next day. She handled the situation like a champ. We had to extend our stay for one extra day. Chelsea was very flexible and accommodated our request to add another day. We returned home with our house in order and very excited dogs. We will continue to use her services because she is dependable, flexible and kind.
Met Kaylee before the dog sitting. For her to meet the dogs. Kaylee was very good with meeting the dogs and understanding expectations. Kaylee is responsible. This young lady has good life experience. At first met with the dogs they settled right in with her. I’ll use her again.
We were incredibly fortunate to have Meyling stay in our home as a live-in pet sitter in December. From the moment she arrived, our animals took to her immediately, which gave us complete peace of mind. She was caring, attentive, and clearly very comfortable around animals. Throughout our time away, Meyling kept us consistently updated with messages and photos, which we truly appreciated and found very reassuring. Our home was well cared for, and our pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved when we returned. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Meyling to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely caring pet sitter, and we would happily have her back again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Wilbon on Rover is $37.25 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 3,061 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wilbon. 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 Wilbon 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 Wilbon 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 Wilbon 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 Wilbon. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
