“Ashely did a wonderful job caring for all four of our animals. She communicated with us throughout the weekend and sent updated photos. Our house was also well taken care of. Would definitely recommend and use her services again.”
“Cam was more than I could have asked for in a pet/house sitter! She truly went above and beyond; she not only was so great with my pets but she looked after my house further than I expected her to. She’s intelligent, compassionate, and personable. She send the best photos and in-depth updates. You can tell she truly cares about and respects your home and pets. I would highly recommend Cam and will continue to book her when she’s available.”
About: Animals have always been part of my life, and caring for them has never felt like a job—it genuinely brings me joy. As a pet owner myself, I know how nerve-racking it can be to leave your furry family member with someone else. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind by treating your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, medication, cuddles, or simply keeping their routine consistent, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you always know how they’re doing. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a flexible schedule that allows me to be dependable and attentive to each pet’s needs. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a long walk, playtime, or overnight care, I’m committed to keeping their routine consistent and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I also provide regular photo and text updates so you can have peace of mind. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. As a pet owner myself, I understand that every animal has unique routines, personalities, and needs. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, respect your home, and make sure your pet receives plenty of love, attention, exercise, and patience. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I strive to create a calm, safe environment where they can feel comfortable and secure. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos so you always know how your furry family member is doing.
About: I'm a former registered nurse and have had pets my entire life ranging from your furry cats and dogs to birds and saltwater fish. My background in medicine makes me uniquely qualified to care for elderly, chronically ill, and pets who require extra attention. I work from home so I have pretty open availability, especially on Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays. I truly enjoy time with animals and look forward to every visit. I plan on focusing on drop ins for feedings, snuggles, medications, walks, and bathroom breaks. My home is not currently set up for keeping more than one pet at a time.
About: I believe every dog deserves more than just a sitter, they deserve a friend. I take time to build trust, understand their unique personality, and provide patient, attentive care so you can have peace of mind knowing your pup is in good hands. My schedule is flexible. I am available for daily walking, check-ins, playtime, anything needed to help your pets feel safe and comfortable! I can pet sit on the weekends and certain days of the week. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable in your home caring for your furry family members. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, maintain your pet’s normal routine, provide updates, and make sure they receive the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away.
“Hannah was above and beyond as not just a pet sitter, but also house sitter. You could tell she really enjoyed being with my pets and took great care of my home. She is very responsive, sweet, and sent me lots of pics and videos. Will absolutely book with her again.”
About: I am comfortable with dogs of all ages and sizes from my experience in a vet clinic. I know what to look for when a dog is feeling un well or anxious. I have my own dog that is a cocker spaniel and he lives to play! I currently work at a job where I handle multiple dogs at once and I love it! I go on lots of walks and have a big yard to play! I work a part time job and am in college in town. I Am home most of the day on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays. Saturdays are my busy days but am still available to board. Mondays, Wednesdays, & Fridays are a little more unpredictable w my schedule but I am home by 5 maybe before. I have a large fenced yard and live across from a large dog friendly park/walking trail. I have a friendly dog to keep your baby company! If your dog is not crate trained it is no problem. And if they are, I have large crates.
“Sara is a Rockstar sitter. She follows care instructions and really takes great care of my fur baby. He's an old man and needs special attention so I truly appreciate her. I never have to worry when she's caring for him which is such a relief.”
About: I’ve had multiple pets for multiple years. I’ve fostered, rescued, rehabbed, and taken care of multiple dogs at a time for multiple years. They have a wide range of personalities, needs, and interests. I’ve worked with aggressive, resource-protective, calm, and medically needing dogs. I’m capable and equipped to take care of them and help your home function well! I’m a business owner with a very flexible schedule. I can usually be available quickly and last minute if needed. I also can handle large stretches of days and time brackets. I create an environment for my visits that are curated too what your pets are most comfortable with. That being said I love to get to know what makes your pet comfortable and help to emulate the kind of routine that helps them not miss a beat of their routine!
“Alyssa is absolutely the BEST! She goes above and beyond for your baby. Our sweet Pig Pig adores her and we have even booked again for this weekend! We are so blessed to have Miss Alyssa as she is extremely loving and compassionate towards the babies. She is an angel and Pig Pig misses her already!”
About: Since 2016, I’ve provided loving, reliable care for dogs of every size and personality. Whether it’s overnight house sitting, medication support, long walks, or simply being a comforting presence, I make sure each animal feels safe, understood, and genuinely cared for. I communicate clearly and consistently, keeping you updated so you can relax while you’re away. My approach is gentle, attentive, and tailored to each dog’s routine and emotional needs. With references available and years of experience, I offer loving care when you can’t be there—because your dog deserves to feel at home, even when you’re not. I currently work part time and do online school part time. I am a hospitality coordinator at a business and then am working towards my ultrasound tech degree. I am gone for about 6 hours a day for work and then can spend the rest of the time at your house or dropping by to care for the dogs. I love movies and being a home body, so it is the perfect fit for me! I do not care for pets in my own home. I am available for overnight sitting in your home or drop in care. I care about safety and making sure it is secure and locked each time I leave. I wash the sheets if I stay overnight and make it seem like I was never there except for well-cared for pets.
“Kayla was great— very communicative, professional, the type of person who you trust will take good care of your pup. We had travel issues crop up while Kayla was slated to take care of our dog & she just rolled with it. We would be happy to work with her again!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Winburn
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 579 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Winburn. 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 Winburn 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 Winburn 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 Winburn 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Winburn. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 100% 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.
