“Nicole was wonderful to our pups! This was the first time we’ve left them overnight since adopting them so we were a little nervous at first. But she completely calmed our nerves!! I cannot thank her enough for treats them like they are hers. We will for sure be using her again! Thank you, Nicole!!”
“The best I have felt leaving my pets in someone else’s care. I have an elderly dog who can be very grumpy and Al was so sweet with him. My cat who hides from everyone even came out to get pets from him. It was basically a staycation for them and I couldn’t be more thankful. I appreciated all of the pictures and coming home to a clean house!”
“Rachel was a “dreamboat” for our senior pups! She was available for them during the daytime and woke up early with them every morning! We could not ask for a better experience with a sitter for Sallie and Pixie and our home. If we have needs in the future she will be the first one we call!”
“Traveled to Raleigh to see TOP concert. Booked Tammy to watch our pups Mandee and Coco while we were at the concert. She was fantastic! Sent picture updates. Would definitely recommend and will use her again if available when we travel to town”
“Morgan has been our person for over a year now. She takes the absolute best care of my dogs and my home. This was my first international trip in a very long time. Having Morgan watch the girls brought peace of mind and allowed me to relax and enjoy my 10 day vacation. She sent lots of pictures and updates and kept the girls on a pretty good schedule. The dogs love her and always seem really happy and relaxed when I return. Cannot recommend her enough. We’ll miss you when we move! Thanks for everything”
“We’ve booked Nathan more than once now and he’s really great. Very dependable, follows our care instructions, is responsive, and keeps us updated. Highly recommend booking him. Thank you for taking great care of our boys!”
“This was our first time using Rover as well as an in home dog sitter. Our dogs have a hard time staying at boarding facilities so we wanted to find a more comfortable solution for them. I can’t thank Taylor enough for taking care of our girls and allowing them to keep their usual routine while we were away. I appreciated the check ins and photo updates so much! Taylor is kind, professional, & compassionate. All things any pet owner would hope for in their sitter.”
“Sarah stayed with Stella while we were traveling for 10 days. Each day she would update us as to how she and Stella were getting along. She walked and played fetch with her. I loved the pictures of Stella that she would send us. She gave Stella lots of love and belly rubs and soon they became best buds. I would have her dog sit for us again.”
“Olivia took such good care of my boys while I was away and sent updates with pictures on every visit!! My two cats had so much fun with her, definitely put my mind at ease while I was gone knowing they were in such good hands!”
“Elise did an amazing job with my goldendoodle! She stepped in last minute with her availability and communicated with me the entire time. We will definitely use her again and highly recommended!!”
“Kayla was amazing!! She watched my two dogs at our house for a week and took great care of them!! She was fast with communicating and always updating me with cute pictures of my boys!! I will definitely be using her again!!”
“Christy was so caring and attentive to my dog and it meant so much to know he was in good hands while I was away. I loved getting all the sweet updates and pictures which gave me peace of mind knowing he was happy and well cared for. She also took such great care of my home. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”
“Acadia gave my anxious dogs so much love and care while we were away. They loved her the moment they met her, and she has the breadth of experience and innate ability to earn their trust. We look forward to her next stay with them!”
“Cassie took great care of Tater Tot while I was out of town! Tater and her pup, Collette, had a great time playing. Tater loved having a playmate as he loves other dogs. Cassie also took great care of my home and left it cleaner than I did!”

About: I've looked after cats and dogs since I was 13. Growing up, neighbors, friends and family would trust me with dog walking, house sitting and checking in on pets. I am fairly active, and strong enough to handle larger dogs. I currently live in an apartment, but the complex has multiple dog parks and a nearby trail for walking. I'm new to the area, and currently looking for a full time job, so I have a fair amount of time to look after your pet. I live in an apartment with my cat Lenny, with enough rooms to separate pets if needed. The apartment complex has multiple dog parks and access to a nearby trail for walks.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and puppies for over 5 years and grew up helping take care of puppies from a young age. Being around animals my whole life has taught me how to understand their different personalities, needs, and routines. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or senior, I’ll provide patient and reliable care tailored to their needs. I’m currently available most weekdays and weekends and have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care depending on your pet’s needs. I make it a priority to keep pets on their normal routine and provide regular updates so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and temperaments and always make sure pets are supervised and secure. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs, and I can separate pets or use a crate if needed. I follow any instructions provided by owners carefully and will make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for during their stay.
“Loren took amazing care of my two cats while I was away. She followed their care instructions thoroughly and she truly allowed me to enjoy my vacation without worrying if the cats were well taken care of. I really appreciated her communication and truly loved all of the picture updates she sent me each day. Loren was overall wonderful and I would 100% request her help in the future.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Will-O-Dean Acres
Christina was absolutely wonderful with our three big pups. We received details updates and great pictures daily! I was initially nervous leaving our senior pup for a few days but he was in great care with Christina and she assured me he was doing well while we were away. I would definitely recommend Christina to any friends/family if they need a dog sitter!
The best I have felt leaving my pets in someone else’s care. I have an elderly dog who can be very grumpy and Al was so sweet with him. My cat who hides from everyone even came out to get pets from him. It was basically a staycation for them and I couldn’t be more thankful. I appreciated all of the pictures and coming home to a clean house!
Nicole took exceptional care of Juju! We were nervous since this was our first time leaving our dog with anyone other than direct family, but Nicole was great. She came and met Juju months before and gave us peace of mind. She sent daily pictures and updates. We are so thankful to have found a great dog sitter like Nicole! 10/10 recommend!
Özlen was great. We experienced a severe weather event that destroyed windows in the neighborhood, and her first priority was ensuring the safety of our dogs. It was incredibly apparent that she loved and cared for our dogs like she would her own. And she handled their admittedly over-the-top meal routine like a champ. She stayed at our house for over a week and left it in a better state than she found it. She took lots of pictures, and kept us updated on them every day. And she took our dogs on runs, which they absolutely loved! If I had one small note, Özlen is a very gentle caregiver. I would recommend her to people whose dogs do not need a strong hand, or adherence to commands and rules. If all you need is for your dogs to be compassionately cared for, with lots of love and attention, then she is your perfect sitter!
I’m almost hesitant to tell everyone just how wonderful Tammy really is, because I’m afraid everyone will want to book her and she won’t have time for my babies! But she absolutely deserves this glowing review! Tammy was amazing from start to finish. Leaving our two fur babies in someone else’s care isn’t easy, but she gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs have very different personalities. Sisko took to Tammy right away, while our little Sassi is much more cautious and prefers to warm up to people on her own terms. Tammy was incredibly patient, gentle, and understanding, giving Sassi the time and space she needed to feel comfortable. We truly appreciated Tammy’s communication, attentiveness, and genuine care for our babies. Knowing they were safe, loved, and comfortable in their own home allowed us to relax and enjoy our time away. Tammy is everything you could hope for in a pet sitter, and we will absolutely be booking her again.
Rachel was great with our German shepherd. She sent us daily messages describing what they were up to and he really seemed to enjoy her company. She took great care of him and our house while we were gone. She also made sure we were arriving back on time before she left him:)
Kennedy was great with my dogs while I was away. One of my dogs is a senior dog and has some health challenges. Kennedy was particularly attentive to her needs and provided very detailed feedback in my absence (which put my mind at ease). I highly recommend Kennedy!
We had a wonderful experience with Tanvi taking care of Oreo while we were away. She was very kind and caring, and regularly sent us updates and pictures of Oreo, which gave us so much peace of mind. We had asked her not to leave Oreo alone for too long, and she was very thoughtful about it. Whenever possible, she would take Oreo with her when she went out, which we really appreciated. We felt very comfortable knowing Oreo was in such good hands. Highly recommend Tanvi! ❤️🐾
We had such a great experience with Meghan! She stayed at our home with our two dogs for the weekend, and we couldn’t have felt more comfortable leaving our girls in her care. It was our first time using Rover and having someone stay in our home, and she made the whole experience so easy! Her communication was wonderful, she sent lots of pictures, and she spoiled our girls in all the best ways! She also took great care of our home. Everything was so clean when we got back, you wouldn’t have known anyone had stayed! We’re so happy we found her and will absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend! 😊
John was able to help us out with pet sitting needs last minute for a weekend and everything went very smoothly between communication following the directions that I left and we discussed and dogs being very happy upon our return and everything in good order. The photos were very helpful throughout the weekend and the updates.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Will-O-Dean Acres is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $78 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 2,980 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Will-O-Dean 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 Will-O-Dean 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 Will-O-Dean 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 Will-O-Dean 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 , 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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
