“Joanna was great! She gave the perfect amount updates on my greyhound, Minerva while we were away and she kept our house super neat and clean. Minerva was so relaxed when we got home so we know she had a great weekend too! Would highly recommend!”
“Katie is a phenomenal sitter and walker. We have 2 frenchies, one of which a recent rescue. She cared for them for a week and took such good care of them while we were gone. Both dogs just love her and became so sweet and comfortable with her. She checked in with us multiple times each day with pics and updates! She’s the perfect house guest, super helpful with small tasks like garbage and mail. Kept the house tidy while we were gone! She’s our go to for our pups!”
“Makinzie was amazing with Clark. She was so respectful, responsive and kind- definitely a pup lover and he loved her back! Will definitely use her services again! Thank you Makinzie”
“Paige has house sat for our animals twice now, and she has been fantastic! The communication and care she gives them has always been a huge relief when we go away on trips.”
“This is Ben’s third time watching Duncan, and I couldn’t be happier with the care he provides! Ben is incredibly dependable, responsive, and always keeps me updated while I’m away. It gives me such peace of mind knowing Duncan is in good hands. I highly recommend Ben to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable dog sitter. I will definitely be using him again!”
“My husband & I were really nervous to have someone house sit, but not only was Ryan awesome with our Yorkie & Fox Terrier but we returned to a clean house. He followed all of our well & gave daily reports on our fur-babies. Thanks so much Ryan!!”
“Alexis is THE BEST! I am so grateful she was available to book last minute, especially on a holiday weekend. After our first meet & greet I felt confident our two fur babes would be well taken care of. I was initially nervous to leave them, and our home, in the care of a stranger - but upon meeting Alexis all my nerves and fears instantly faded. Alexis was so patient, kind and accommodating. She listened to my instructions and allowed me to walk through our routine without interrupting - even though she probably knew everything I was going to tell her since it was all pretty standard. It gave me peace of mind that she was so patient and cooperative. During our trip away, she checked in regularly with photos and updates. It was abundantly clear that our boys were enjoying her company as much as she was enjoying theirs. When we returned home everything was just as clean and well cared for as we left it. The bed was properly made, counters wiped down, any used dishes were washed and our boys were recently fed and left with fresh water. Shortly after arriving back home, we immediately rebooked Alexis for another upcoming trip. Thank you to Alexis for taking amazing care of our pets and for respecting our home and pet routines. Looking forward to seeing you again soon!!”
“Rachel was good with communication although it took a bit to get our schedules to sync up for a meet a greet. Everything went well and my two dogs were well taken care of. She was fine with my special needs blind and deaf dog who takes pills and eye drops twice a day. This can be challenging but she made it clear that she was experienced. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a sitter for their dog.”
“Tim is the GOAT. There is no one we trust more than Tim. We truly can peacefully leave for a vacation and not have one concern. He checks in frequently with amazing pictures and updates, and puts us at ease. He takes our pup on long walks and gives her so much attention and love. Around our house, he’s known as Uncle Tim!”
“Carly is a very gentle and kind person who took amazing care of our golden doodle. She kept us updated with photos and even took her for a little outing in the car; I had mentioned my doodle loves car rides. We highly recommend her services, we felt very safe leaving our doodle and home to her for the weekend.”
About: I'm an experienced pet owner, my wife and I have a pair of rescue dogs, and would love the opportunity to help with your pets. My wife and I gained a vast amount of experience working with Rover while we lived in Chicago for five years. Sadly, we are not able to offer any boarding or doggy daycare services anymore as we have two children under 2, and that's just ..... a lot. I am however able to provide other services in the area and at this time have a fair amount of flexibility. Feel free to reach out and see if I can be of service. My wife and I just welcomed our second child and I am taking some time to figure out what I want to do next and mulling the idea of returning to school for a masters, so at present time I'm pretty flexible. My lab can be reactive to certain people on walks (landscapers with leaf blowers for instance) so caution is the key in all situations. If your pup has a certain trigger I certainly wouldn’t put them in a situation to, well, trigger it.
“Tim was very punctual and reliable. He stayed at our home and took care of our 3 multiple, special needs dogs and our 2 cats while we were away for 5 days. He took care of their needs and made us feel that our pets were being well cared for while we were away. We don't often leave the pets for extended periods of time, so it was great to have someone that we felt we could trust to take care of them.”
“We have had Aliki stay with our dog, Luna, twice this year now when we’ve travelled outside the US. Aliki is amazing with Luna - she takes amazing care of her and handles her with a lot of calm, even when Luna is over excited and “jumpy”. She sends us regular updates throughout the day - something we care about especially when we travel internationally. Finally, Aliki leaves our house extremely clean and in order. We’d definitely continue having Aliki over at our place to take care of Luna and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take care of their dog.”
“Mary stayed with our boys for two nights. When we returned, the boys were safe and happy, and the house was clean. We truly appreciate your help. We’ll definitely reach out again in the future.”
About: I live next to a large walking trail and have many years of personal dog care experience. I have a large backyard. I’m currently in nursing school so I have lots of free time to care for your doggie I am currently working part-time and attending nursing school, so when I am not working, I love to take care of dogs! My work and school schedule is flexible especially during the summer! I currently do not have any pets as my dog of 14 years passed away but I do have a large backyard and a walking trail near by that is easily accessible.
“Mary and Chandler did a fantastic job taking care of our two greater Swiss Mountain dogs while we were gone for the weekend. They sent updated pictures and notes, honored the requests we had made, and also left the house in great condition which we really appreciated. We arrived home to two well fed and happy dogs, and a clean house. We would absolutely utilize their services again. Thanks so much Mary and Chandler!”
“Vinusha took great care of our dog, Stella! Stella gets anxious when we leave, but Vinusha was able to calm her and Stella got comfortable with her almost instantly. Stella can sometimes refuse to eat when someone new feeds her, but she was so at ease with Vinusha that she cleaned her plate! We also really appreciated the pictures, updates, and long walks she gave Stella. We were extremely happy with her care and would highly recommend Vinusha!”
“Sarah came through to save the day when another pet sitter cancelled last-minute. When she saw my request, she called me right away to introduce herself and get the details to see if she’d be able to take the job. I’m so happy it worked out because Sarah was the best! She took cuddly care of my elderly cat, sending updates and pics regularly, and keeping me up-to-date on him taking his meds, etc. My cat has allergies and has a lot of boogers—Sarah was kind and understanding to this sweet old snot machine, even while being peppered by sneezes. Thank you SO much!”
“Maya took great care of our home and dogs while we were away! She was communicative, responsible and patient with our 11 month old lab. Both of our dogs enjoyed their time with Maya.”

Bri was absolutely amazing with our two girls, Whiskey and Ginger. Super communicative and our girls ADORED her ❤️ We got at least daily updates with pics of the pups and you could just tell how at ease they were with her. Couldn’t imagine a better sitter for them, and will definitely be using Bri again if schedules align the next time we’re in need of sitter. Completely recommend!!!
This is Ben’s third time watching Duncan, and I couldn’t be happier with the care he provides! Ben is incredibly dependable, responsive, and always keeps me updated while I’m away. It gives me such peace of mind knowing Duncan is in good hands. I highly recommend Ben to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable dog sitter. I will definitely be using him again!

It’s obvious that Sophia has spent a lot of time with dogs. We’ve only left our dog with with family but Sophia can’t and has instant rapport with our dog and us. While missing or dog very much we were comfortable that our dog was given great care and lots of an attention. Truly a professional with great communication. I highly recommend Sophia.
Angela was absolutely wonderful! This was our first time using a dog sitter, and she made it a 100% positive experience for us. She immediately connected with our Lou and took amazing care of her. We received regular updates and photos, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Angela is reliable, warm, and truly professional — we would recommend her 100%! We’d be happy to have her watch our dog again anytime.

FAQs for House Sitting - Willborne Acres
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Willborne Acres is $43 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $92 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 5,470 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Willborne 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 Willborne 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 Willborne 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 Willborne 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.
