“Sara did an amazing job with our pups giving us updates throughout her stay, and with our home. Everything that was asked of her was done to perfection and we couldn't of have any one better to watch our little babies.”
“Cara is awesome. My dog had a health problem while I was away and Cara smoothly managed specialized care including wound care and medication administration. She has excellent communication skills. My dog is always happy to see her. I have used Cara’s services before and plan on continuing to do so.”
“Kaitlyn was great! We needed someone to care for our boy last minute, and she came through for us and was so kind! She sent pictures and put my mind at ease. We will definitely use her again!”
“Emily is the best! She always ensures our pets are well taken care of and loved! She took our dog on extra long walks and when we came back the house was probably cleaner than when we left it. Highly highly recommend.”
“Katelyn was very good with our senior dogs, she walked them and sent pictures of them daily. She kept our house very tidy while she stayed here, very trustworthy! We will use her again”
“Joshua did a great job with my 2 dogs, and 11 month old Dalmation puppy, and a 7 year old Hungarian Pumi. He went above and beyond when I did not arrive home when I told him I would be there...( flight delays) Joshua stayed until 1:30 am to make sure the dogs would be OK . The dogs really seemed to enjoy him and were sorry to see him go! I can highly recommend him!”
“Arden was great taking care of our dogs and cat. She stayed in the nighttime to ensure that our dogs were ok and not in need of emergency potty situations that can sometimes occur. She walked the dogs, sent pics and they were all happy and fine when we got home. House was great and everything went smoothly! Using her again the end of the month!”
“We are happy to provide a magnificent recommendation for Alexis who recently provided in-home pet and house sitting services for me over an eight-day period. Throughout the engagement, she demonstrated a high level of professionalism, reliability, and attention to detail. My dog was exceptionally well cared for receiving consistent exercise, proper feeding, and attentive companionship. It was evident upon my return that my pet was comfortable, healthy, and had been treated with genuine care. In addition, she maintained my home in excellent condition. The property was clean, orderly, and well-managed, reflecting a clear respect for my space and expectations. Communication was consistent and reassuring, with regular updates that provided confidence and peace of mind during my time away. Based on this experience, I would not hesitate to engage Alexis again for future services and offer my full recommendation to others seeking a dependable and trustworthy pet and house sitter.”
“Allanna was an absolute joy. Her love for animals was obvious as soon as she came for a meet and greet a week before she sat for us. She cared for our baby as if she were her own while she stayed in our home and watched over our property. While we were on vacation she kept us updated and sent us pictures of our puppy. She even washed the sheets and towels and left everything spotless before we returned. We will definately call her again!”
“Kenza was awesome with my 2 dogs! I have a senior lab and a 1.5 year old puppy, both of who require a lot of attention. She loved them like they were her own. I would love to hire Kenza again!”
About: Since the age of six, dogs have been a major presence in my life. From 50 lb pitties to 3 lb yorkies, I have had the privilege of caring for a myriad of canine companions, including seniors and those with special needs. My passion lies in ensuring that your fur babies receive nothing short of exceptional care, along with ample opportunities for fun and exercise. Over the course of the past sixteen years, I have gained a wealth of experience in managing complex medication schedules, tending to severe illnesses, and attending to various disabilities. Regardless of the circumstances, you can rest assured that your cherished doggos will receive the utmost care and attention. I am currently a stay at home dog mom and can be available just about anytime to check in, love on, and walk your dogs. I'm happy to walk your dog(s) around the neighborhood or nearby park, play some fetch or whatever games they love best. Very comfortable with handling up to four large dogs at a time on walks.
“My dog is usually shy and skittish with new people, but she warmed up to Valencia very quickly! Our usual sitter was out on vacation and the sitter we booked instead had a family emergency, so I had to find a sitter last minute on a holiday weekend. Valencia was available to watch my dog on very short notice, and she did great!”
“What a great experience we just had!! McKenzie was amazing the whole way through with our fur baby. She updated us, asked questions, and spent lots of time with her. Will definitely book again!”
“Thomas was absolutely wonderful to work with. He sent a bunch of photos and videos didn't hesitate to reach out with questions. This was our first time using Rover. We were a bit nervous to leave Seuss with someone we didn't know well, but, after this experience, I'm pretty sure Seuss would prefer we leave town again soon for more time with Thomas lol”
About: Hi! I would love to help you out and let you have a piece of mind that your 4 legged loved one is well taken care of. I have a 2.5 year old German Shepard named Bailey and a cat named Ollie! I recently had our 8 year old Springer Spaniel pass due to health issues and it was very heartbreaking for us as he was mine and my husbands first dog together when we were in high school so I feel doing Rover will be a good outlet for me to take care of animals. I have been caring for animals since I was very little. We always had a pet. My passion is kids and animals and I can assure you your fur baby will be in very good hands! I will check in with you so you know how they are doing while they are in my care. I am a very flexible person and I can't wait to work with you and your babies! Kelcie Gray I’m a stay at home mom with a 4 year old and my 9 year old daughter is in school all day :) very flexible My dog and cat are very well taken care of and we give them their food and water every day as well as their daily vitamins. I’m very flexible and am a full time online student so I can work with any schedule. I am available almost every day and time. I ensure the pet is safe at all times and well taken care of. I will also keep your home tidy while you are away if I have access to a broom or dust pan to keep hair to a minimum for you when you come back home. :)
About: Hi! My name is Caitlyn and I have two cats , Billie and Jean and a dog named Bear, so I'm very used to caring for animals every day. I understand how important it is to make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for.! Since I'm home from college, I have lots of free time to provide dependable care and can easily work around your pets routine. I'm available most days and happy to accommodate last-minute bookings when possible. I always make sure pets are comfortable by sticking to their usual routine as closely as possible. During visits, I'll make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and plenty of playtime or quiet companionship—whatever they're most comfortable with. I respect your home, keep everything clean and secure, and I'll send updates and photos so you know your cat is doing well while you're away. My goal is to help your pet feel safe, relaxed, and cared for until you return.
“Rebecca was fantastic! I was out of the country and she worked with other people I had watching my dog throughout the time I was gone. She provided updates and she loved on my dog when I could not. I sincerely appreciated her time and her love of my dog.”

Baylee did a fantastic job watching my 2 dogs for a few days! Both dogs have feeding schedules and take medications and she followed everything to a T! I received lots of photos and a video, each time my dogs were very happy! When I came back from my trip, my house was in great order. I highly recommend her and will be using her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Windsor Forest
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Windsor Forest on Rover is $36.63 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 613 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Windsor Forest. 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 Windsor Forest 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 Windsor Forest 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 Windsor Forest 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 Windsor Forest. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
