Y’all, Kristal is the BEST. I messed up my dates and ended up out of town without a sitter. She showed up within 4 hours and saved me. She sent loads of pictures to ease my mind and was kind and playful with my kitty. It’s worth everything to know your pet is safe and happy and Kristal made that happen

Xavier was AMAZING. Did a meet and greet before the weekend so the dogs could meet him. Between then and the actual weekend, our dogs condition got worse so there was more than we initially talked about to have to do. He jumped right on it. No complaints. Sent tons of pics and updates. My pups were clearly happy and being well taken care of! Highly recommend booking with him!

About: I grew up with many pets. For example, I’ve had 6 birds, 3 hamsters, 1 dwarf gerbil, 1 leopard gecko, 2 cats, 2 dogs, and possibly more. I currently have 2 dogs. Both are rescues. Jasper is 2 years old and I’ve had him since he was about a month old if even that, and Raleigh who is 7 now. I’ve had her since she was 2. Aside from the doggy babies, I also currently have a brown anole that I took in from Florida. His name is Tommy and I’ve had him for 4 months now. He was a baby when I found him. I also have 2 fish, Gumball and Penny. I personally believe all animals are babies. I’ve also pet sit for family members before. I’m currently working part time and I’m not yet in school. I do have a lot of free time, and because I don’t live alone I have people home to help take care of my furry and scaled friends, where as some people may need some extra help that I’d be able to provide! I was raised right. I’m respectful, do not cross boundaries, and know better than to disrespect clients (human and animal, of course!) I’m a big empath, I love animals beyond comprehension. I’m a vegetarian that’s working my way to veganism if that can show you how empathetic I am. I also cry while watching Ratatouille. I love walking, I love talking to animals, I treat animals as if they are literal babies because they are just too cute!

This was our first Rover experience so we didn’t know what to expect. Anna Marie was very responsive. She was very easy to communicate with. Anna Marie stayed in our home with our 2 dogs while we were gone for a week. Our dogs were well cared for. She sent daily updates and pictures which made us feel more comfortable that the pups were in good hands. We would definitely book with her again.

About: I’ve been passionate about animal science and animal welfare for as long as I can remember. I’m currently a veterinary technician at an animal hospital in the DC area. I’ve worked at the Smithsonian Zoo, NIH facilities, doggy daycare and boarding facilities, animal clinics, and a humane society shelter for birds, cats, dogs, rodents and reptiles. I will be applying for veterinary school this summer and I am currently in a Master’s program with a concentration in bioengineering. I’m currently working full-time at an animal hospital, including mornings on Saturday. I have two days during the week that I am off the clock. My shifts are from 7:30am to 6:00pm during the week and 7:30am to 12:00pm. I’ve used my experience in veterinary medicine and educational background (B.S. in animal science from UMD) to recognize animal behavior. I’ll know to understand your pets boundaries and behaviors when interacting with them in their home.

About: As a lifelong dog lover and experienced pet owner, I’ve cared for dogs for more than 15 years. Most of my experience has been with medium and small breeds, giving me a strong understanding of their unique personalities, needs, and routines. I provide a safe, reliable, and caring environment where your dog will be treated like family. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company with cuddles, you can count on me to give your pet the attention and care they deserve. I own a personal training business, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be home throughout the day. When I’m away, it’s typically for scheduled training sessions at the gym. This flexibility allows me to provide attentive, reliable care and plenty of companionship for your dog. Dogs have always held a special place in my heart, and I truly treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. I love spending quality time with them, whether that’s going for walks, tossing a ball around, or simply relaxing together with plenty of cuddles. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away, giving them the attention and affection they deserve.

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my patience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies who need consistency and extra attention to senior dogs who require a gentler approach, medication administration, and specialized care. I am attentive to feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise needs, and behavioral cues to ensure each pet receives individualized care. Communication is very important to me, so I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins to give pet parents peace of mind. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, cuddle sessions, or maintaining a pet’s daily routine, I am committed to treating every animal as if they were my own. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine. I prioritize walks, feeding, playtime, and updates, ensuring every pet receives consistent, loving, and dependable care each day. I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and medications if needed. I provide a safe, loving environment and regular updates to owners.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels for many years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m attentive to routines, patient with anxious pets, and always focused on keeping animals safe, comfortable, and happy. I treat every pet as if they were my own and take pride in providing reliable, loving care. I’m available for boarding on weekends and for drop-ins, walks, and other services on weekdays after at any time. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, and consistent care while fitting seamlessly into my routine. My home is a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment with a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. I have one friendly, well-socialized yorkie and always introduce new pets slowly and carefully. I’m happy to crate pets if requested and strictly follow feeding schedules, routines, and any special care instructions. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities.

Yocelyn obviously loves dogs, and my very anxious pocket bully fell in love with her immediately. Yocelyn has a relaxed feel to her, which was good for my dog, and she was also careful to give Farah her numerous supplements. She left the house as she found it and was responsive about letting us know how Farah was doing. Highly recommend!

About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, caring for a variety of pets and learning early on how important patience, consistency, and love are in pet care. Currently, I have a Shih Tzu that I’ve cared for over the past 8 years, so I’m very familiar with daily routines, grooming needs, and providing long-term, attentive care. I’ve also cared for a young Beagle for over two years, which gave me experience with high-energy dogs that require regular exercise, engagement, and structure. What sets me apart is my genuine connection with animals and my ability to adapt to each pet’s personality and needs. Whether it’s keeping an energetic dog active, maintaining a consistent routine, or providing gentle care for more relaxed or older pets, I make sure every animal feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I pay close attention to behavior, routines, and any special instructions, treating every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home, which allows me to be present, attentive, and flexible throughout the day. I’m able to provide regular walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins without long gaps, ensuring pets receive consistent care and companionship. Because I’m home most of the time, I can easily adjust my schedule to meet each pet’s needs, whether that means sticking to a strict routine, giving extra attention, or accommodating special care requests. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy being part of my everyday life. I provide attentive, personalized care whether pets are in my home or my client’s home. I focus on maintaining each pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free. This includes following feeding schedules, regular walks, playtime, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. In a client’s home, I make sure to respect their space while keeping their pet’s environment clean, calm, and familiar. I also would provide updates, photos, and communication so owners feel confident and connected while they’re away. If caring for pets in my home, I create a safe, welcoming environment where they receive plenty of attention, supervision, and affection. I’m mindful of each pet’s temperament and needs, whether that means giving energetic dogs lots of activity or providing a relaxed space for more laid-back or senior pets. Above all, I treat every pet like my own by prioritizing their safety, comfort, and happiness at all times.

McKenna did an excellent job with our high-energy Aussie, who can be a bit anxious sometimes. She was super communicative, punctual, and shared lots of photos and updates. This was the first time we left him overnight with someone other than family, and it was great to know he was in good hands with McKenna. She also left our house as clean, if not cleaner, than it was before. Excited to work with her again soon!

Cindy & Tyler were absolutely fabulous! Cindy sent me a photo of my pup every day. My favorite one was when I saw my Leia cuddled up next to Tyler. Cindy told me that she also began to follow her around. Needless to say, it provided much comfort to know that my lil one clearly felt at home her new best friends. In addition, when I arrived at my house, it was exactly how I left it. So Cindy & Tyler thanks soooo much for taking such good care of my Leia & my house!!

Tia is excellent! We have three dogs and a cat. All three dogs have some special needs and Tia managed their personalities and quirks (and medications) perfectly!

Jasmine was amazing! I have an anxious pup who is dog reactive and she took care of him so well. She's very communicative, sharesphotos regularly, provides updates everyday unprompted, and reaches out when she has any concerns. She also left my place just as clean as I left it for her. Will definitely work with her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Windbrook

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Windbrook on Rover is $42.8 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 9,407 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Windbrook. 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 Windbrook 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 Windbrook 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 Windbrook 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 Windbrook. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 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.
