“Meredith was great! She met them a couple of times before we left, which really helped our older dog with anxiety. She connected so well with the pups. She kept us informed with pictures and videos, so we knew our pups were in good hands. She treated our home with care, too, which was appreciated. We would happily book with Meredith again!”
“Emi was the best dog sitter we’ve used on Rover! Our dog is a rescue with separation anxiety and we had just moved two weeks prior to our travel plans, so I was nervous about finding someone to stay with Buddy, but Emi was so reassuring, communicative, and sent lots of great pictures and videos. I even came home to a sweet handwritten note welcoming us home and recapping her stay. I have no doubt that our dog was in good hands and great company and I cannot recommend Emi’s services enough. It truly makes a difference when you can travel knowing that your pet is being loved on and well cared for. We will certainly be repeat customers!”
“Our pup is not usually 'open to new relationships' but she quickly warmed up to Claire. The weather posed significant challenges during Claire's stay but she managed everything with aplomb. Great job!”
“Kelly is amazing! She took great care of our house and dog. She provided frequent updates and it’s clear that she really enjoys taking care of pets. She followed our instructions to a T. Would absolutely recommend!”
“Allison is everyone's ideal dog sitter. She's responsive, updates you regularly, and clearly loves and takes care of your pet the same way you do. Would highly recommend, and plan to be rebooking her in the future!”
“Mara was an incredible caretaker for my pups. She was responsive, punctual, and sent lots of updates. I really appreciate her and my pups really enjoyed their weekend with her. I trust Mara 100 percent and Hope to rebook with her in the future!”
“Alysha is awesome with Zorro and takes great care of him. She is always willing to help us out, including for days where we ask her to hang with Zorro for almost the whole day. We so appreciate her!”
“Carmack is a mature and very competent pet sitter. He was great with my very shy mini dachshund, Daisy. We had 2 meet and greats to help her overcome her anxiety. Carmack knew what to do to calm her. He was incredibly patient with her. He’s very knowledgeable and confident with dogs. He took very good care of our place and left it cleaner than it was when we left. I highly recommend him.”
“Salem was absolutely amazing for Oliver and did everything that we asked and more! She was very communicative and gave us total peace of mind while we were far far away from home!”
About: I have pet care experience as a dog walker and pet sitter. I have fostered rescue dogs. Drop-in visits or dog walking includes care for 1 dog. Each additional dog that needs care during a drop-in visit or dog walking is an additional fee per dog per visit. I am available for cat drop-in visits, too! :D Have farm animals or exotic pets, message me about rates! Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you! I have lived in Hillsborough and been a part of the community for over 11 years. I am very familiar with the area including trails and parks. I am a caring person who knows how special pets are to their humans and other pets in the home. I will keep your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness a priority.
“Meredith has been absolutely incredible as our house and catsitter over a week-long trip. We have a somewhat complicated situation (some of our cats don't get along), and she's navigated that wonderfully. She provided many pictures and detailed summaries to help us understand how they've been doing and has been responsive to suggestions or requests along the way. Meredith really went above and beyond, and I would happily recommend her services and hope to work with her again in the future.”
“We absolutely love Amy! Honestly, we were far away from home and are pretty sure our dogs were sad when she left and disappointed to see us. She gives expert walks, did bath time - which is a total circus, and even cleaned some of our muddy blankets. I will call Amy anytime we leave! She’s the absolute best.”
“Mardi did an incredible job taking care of our cats and home while we were away for a week! She followed our instructions perfectly, sent regular updates and photos, and left our house in even better condition than when she arrived. I’m usually a little anxious about leaving the cats when we travel, but I was able to relax and enjoy our trip knowing everything was safe in her hands. I will absolutely book her again the next time we need a cat sitter!”
“Alphine took such incredible care of our dog, Luna, and our cat, Dullahan! She was clearly comfortable with larger dogs and even went above and beyond to walk Luna despite our complicated requests around her leash reactivity. It was easy to communicate with Alphine throughout our trip and we felt confident our pets were in good hands because of it. Alphine also took incredible care of our home. We can’t recommend her enough!!”
“Katy seemed very sweet, trustworthy, and great with animals from the time I first met her, so I felt totally comfortable leaving my animals in her care while I was out of town! My place was clean and tidy when I got home, and I enjoyed the videos of my animals Katy sent to me while I was gone.”

Kellie was great with our dog and cat during our 10 day trip out of the country. She did a great job communicating, and was flexible with our travel plans, and we came home to happy pets and a clean house. Would definitely recommend Kellie and book with her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Wilkerson Acres
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Wilkerson Acres on Rover is $19.98 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 2,007 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wilkerson Acres. 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 Wilkerson Acres 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 Wilkerson Acres 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 Wilkerson Acres 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.

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.
