“This is the second time Salem has pet-sat for me. She's very good at communicating and sending updates. She keeps the house nice and tidy and is very trustworthy. My dog seems very happy when Salem's taking care of her.”
“Alyssa is so so so special!! She took care of my pups while I was traveling for work and it was a great experience for me and for them! She communicates very well and kept me updated about them, took great care of the house and when I came back, I could see how relax and happy my pups were, which means the world to me!”
“Kelly did an outstanding job watching our dogs and house sitting! She's a natural with pets - my shy ones warmed up to her right away! We appreciated the frequent communication and the plentiful photos and all the little things she did to care for them and our house while we were away!”
“Mara was fabulous with Wags. She paid close attention to what he needed and how he was doing. Communication with her was easy from booking through the visit. Will definitely use her again.”
“Lauren was amazing. Our dog can be anxious around new people, but she felt comfortable with Lauren right away, which honestly gave us so much peace of mind. She sent thoughtful updates throughout the stay and it was clear Dee was happy and well cared for. She also left our house in great condition. We will absolutely use her again next time we need a sitter. Highly recommend.”
“A++++! Perfect house and dog sitter for a long weekend. Great communicator! We always knew how things were going while we were out of the country. Went above and beyond to get comfortable with our dog and make our dog comfortable.”
“Kelsey was a delightful house sitter for my cats and dog. They seemed to delight in each other. She was very communicative and respectful of my home and asked questions when necessary. She had a handful with my crew and handled it all very well. Would recommend and use her again.”
“Alekx has stayed with our puppy twice now and was amazing! Very patient with puppy energy. We also came home to a pup who had been taught a few new skills and Alekx even gave our pup many hand me down toys from her own dog, some of which are our pups new favorites! Our dog hasn’t been alone yet, and Alekx was great about staying with her and even took her out to a park.”
“Alysha was wonderful. She was very attentive to our sweet boy, incredibly responsive, and providing us daily updates and pictures. She spoiled our boy rotten with daily walks and snuggles on the couch. Thank you so much Alysha!”
“Cameron was amazing. My dog is very nervous and doesn't open up to anyone new, not even sitters I've had for years. As is her usual, I told Cameron she likely wouldn't even come out of her crate for him, but I got pictures of her playing tug, getting belly rubs, and lying by his side. I was astonished. Cameron checked in regularly and sent tons of pictures and videos. Highly recommended.”
“Courtney was amazing! She kept me informed daily on Gatsby and my birds with messages and photos. I came home to a happy and tired dog and a sparkling clean apt. Found my go to sitter!”
“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.”
“Meredith was great staying with my cat and housesitting for 3 nights! I got regular updates, both pics and video, and I could tell she liked hanging out with him, which was nice. Came home to a clean house. Would definitely (and hope to!) book her again.”
About: Hi! I grew up around dogs, and have one of my own now (her name is Noodle)! Noodle loves to be around other dogs. I am very familiar with large-breed dogs (I had a lab growing up, and currently have a Great Pyrenees mix), but I love dogs of all sizes and ages. I am also familiar with cats! I've had 2 of my own. For 6 years, I have volunteered at animal shelters and pet-sat. I have been responsible for puppies as well as dogs in old age, kittens and cats, and even horses, goats, chickens, pigs, and alpacas. I love to go on walks, hike, and explore parks. I have personal experience with training. I am available for dog walks, house-sitting, and drop-in visits! I live in a duplex with a yard that is partly fenced and soon-to-be fully fenced. I teach yoga and have a lot of flexibility and availability to care for pets. I do some remote work from my laptop and can do from anywhere! I take my own dog on 3-4 walks per day. We love exploring new neighborhoods and parks. She is a little over 9 years old and loves to walk with other dogs. She's also good around cats.
About: I can’t have a pup of my own so caring for other people’s dogs is what I love to do! I have boarded a dog for 8 months in the past and continue to house and dog sit whenever the opportunity arises. I have 5 years of dog handling experience and I take pride in giving owners solid peace of mind so they can go about their day knowing their 4 legged family member is well taken care of. I understand that every dog is different and you can rest assure I will go over each and every detail concerning your pup. When I care for dogs, I treat them as my own, providing lots of love and attention. I promise to treat your pup as you would, a day full of walks and belly rubs.
“Demarcus is attentive and kind. He updated us on the pups’ days and went above and beyond to keep them happy. We had one dog who needed some extra attention and he gave her the attention and gave us updates multiple times a day. He is our new favorite sitter!”
“I cannot say enough about how much we loved having Chloe care for our two Italian Greyhounds. One of our dogs got injured shortly before our trip so we were worried about leaving them, but Chloe was nurturing, conscientious, and very responsive to our concerns. After meeting, we felt confident that she would provide them the care they needed. The dogs were calm and content up our return, and our house immaculate. It was such a joy to find someone in whom we have full confidence. I highly recommend Chloe as dog sitter who can provide the caring and structure needed and goes the extra mile in caring for your pet.”

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 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 2,003 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.

- 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.
