“M.B and Lindsey drove 2 hours for a meet up a month or so before their sitting with Sasha, which we REALLY appreciated. They were not afraid to open up and get to know and play with Sasha. They asked lots of good questions before and after we left for our vacation, not only about Sasha and her wants/needs but what our expectations were regarding our home. We received pictures and an update each day and we were pleased with their prompt responses. Upon our return we were impressed to find how clean they had left our home. Had we of let her, I think Sasha would have gotten in the car and traveled back home with them as they were packing to go back home. The next day we could tell Sasha seemed to be missing them already. We would definitely book with M.B & Lindsey again.”
“Sally is great! She has watched my fur baby twice now and both times was very communicative. She shared lots of pictures so I knew my pups were taken care of. She’s super easy going and truly takes care of the fur babies like her own.”
“Our second time booking with Chris and we will continue to book with him! He’s so attentive and thoughtful when it comes to watching the fur babies! There are no worries when Chris is around!”
“Renee has been our go-to sitter for our sweet pup when we are away and we are so thankful to have her. Our otherwise anxious and tentative Tucker has connected so well with her. She stays in our home and leaves it as she found it, and takes great care of Tucker, meeting all of his needs, which differ each time she is here, while we are gone. Thank you, Renee!”
“Kimberly is the best and takes such good care of our senior pup who needs a lot of extra attention. She is a great communicator and so respectful of our home. Highly recommend!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Jerry! He was reliable, caring, and kept us updated with messages and photos while we were away. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our dog oso was in such good goods.”
About: I’ve been around animals for most of my life and genuinely love caring for them. I currently have five pets of my own—three dogs and two cats—that I’ve raised and cared for, so I understand the responsibility and attention pets need every day. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, as well as caring for cats. I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, walking, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know every pet has their own routine and personality, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I also believe in keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages so they can have peace of mind while they’re away. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life because I care for my own three dogs and two rescued cats every day. I’m happy to provide drop-in visits, dog walking, house sitting in your home, or care for your pet in my home if that’s what works best for you. I do my best to be flexible with scheduling and will make sure your pet gets the love, attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I will follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medication instructions, and any special care they need. I have a large yard, and while it isn’t fenced, I’m happy to take dogs outside on a leash for potty breaks, walks, and exercise. If your pet stays in my home, they’ll be treated like one of my own and receive plenty of love, supervision, and attention. If I care for your pet in your home, I’ll respect your home, follow your instructions carefully, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your furry family member is doing.
“Katherine was responsive and attentive to our animals and house needs. She was great at communicating updates and handling unexpected circumstances. I will gladly request her services again.”
“Carissa was excellent, made sure she met us as well As the dogs prior to her staying here with them . Professional , our dogs were well adjusted to her , she made sure their routine was not disrupted and we are very pleased ! To be honest we were skeptical about using ROVER but now - there will be no other way ! Great experience , Carissa left the home clean , our dogs were so content ….THANKS ROVER and Carissa .”
“Kati was more than amazing, and was so sweet to send updates, pics of the potty trips, and you’d never know that she was even here for three days! Beyond thankful and grateful for her! Cannot wait to book her next time!”
“Kaya did an excellent job with our dog. She can be very difficult around new people but Kaya was able to keep her as calm as possible. Sent several updates along with pictures a day and understands dogs for sure. Thanks”
“Mehlayne made herself available last minute to take care of our little Lupo. She was punctual, kind, respectful, and communicative while we were away. She followed all of our care instructions etc. etc. It is obvious that Lupo was restless while we were gone (because he’s passed out now) but Mehlayne said she tried very hard to make Lupo comfortable. We would certainly consider hiring her in the future.”
“Athena was a terrific host and dog sitter! She is extremely friendly, communicative, and loving. She played daily with korra and was a pro at working her outside. She sent us daily photo and progress updates, and seemed to have an instant bond with our Aussie. Korra loved her and we will definitely use her again!”
“Alexis was wonderful! Zephy obviously loved her! I came home to a relaxed, happy dog and a neat house. Never once had to ask for an update, because she sent pictures and updates regularly. I will definitely book her again!”
“Ted was AMAZING!! We have 4 dogs and a cat and one dog with history of seizures and he was great with all of them. Always updated us on how they were doing and sent pictures everyday. Even stayed an extra night at the last second. Would definitely recommend booking with him!”
“We had an amazing experience with Lori! She stayed at our home and cared for our two dogs/two cats while we were away. One of our dogs had recently undergone surgery and required medications, rehab exercises, constant monitoring, and a very specific care routine. She took the time to come by before our trip to learn everything and handled his care flawlessly. Throughout our trip, she kept us updated with photos and messages, stayed incredibly organized, and communicated wonderfully. What impressed us most was the level of care and dedication she showed. Not only during our trip, but also by checking in on our dog’s recovery afterward. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring. Very grateful will 100% be booking with her again!”
“Chloe did such a great job with our pup! Our previous sitter cancelled last minute, and she was so accommodating on such short notice! She sent lots of pictures and updates, it was clear he was loved and in good hands. I would highly recommend and will be using her in the future!”
“The boys really love Jasmin! They did really well w/ a meet and greet, and immediately took to her. For the overnight stay, she was a great communicator with the updates and pictures. My boys, who are normally hesitant about strangers, had fun with her, and get excited when I say her name. Look forward to booking Jasmin again, as she’s a very kind, sweet and responsible person. She eases the anxiety of leaving your babies overnight.”
“I felt reassured going out of town leaving the dogs in Steffanie’s care. She checked in with me regularly, took great care of the dogs, and sent photos of them out and about each day.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Willow Heights is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Willow Heights
Ana was an outstanding house and pet sitter! She took wonderful care of our home and our six pets (2 dogs and 4 cats), including giving one of our dogs daily medication and making sure the dogs got their daily walks. Her communication was exceptional. Every day she sent multiple photos, videos, and detailed updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She even went above and beyond by taking our trash out after I forgot to put it out before we left. We came home to happy pets and a well-cared-for home. I highly recommend Ana and would absolutely book her again!
I’m a bit of a helicopter parent to a pandemic pup, and these two allowed me to leave for the weekend without any worry or stress. I even came home to a house that felt cleaner than I left it! Archie loved Anna and Roma and I appreciated the regular pictures and check ins. An easy recommendation for anyone.
Jerry was absolutely incredible! He took great care of our two girls. We got pictures 2 to 3 times a day every day. He spoiled them rotten just as we would, and we’ve been home. When we arrive back home, they greeted us joyfully, but then ran back to the room to check to see if Jerry was there. I would highly recommend him and we definitely will use him again in the future.
Kara took great care of my cats while I was away. She was communicative, reliable, and clearly made an effort to make my cats feel comfortable. I have a cat who can sometimes be a little shy with new people, but Kara was patient and attentive throughout the visit. I appreciated the updates and felt reassured knowing my pets were being looked after. I’d definitely recommend her to others looking for a dependable sitter.

FAQs for House Sitting - Willow Heights
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Willow Heights on Rover is $55.5 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 1,048 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Willow Heights. 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 Willow Heights 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 Willow Heights 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 Willow Heights 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.
