“Jaxon was so lovely and easy to work with! He gave our fur babies all the love and attention they are used to while we were gone. Will definitely be requesting him time and time again.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for 3 years, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them and making sure they’re well taken care of. I’ve watched dogs with different needs, including giving medication when needed and caring for multiple dogs in one day. I’m very reliable, patient, and attentive, and I treat every dog with the same love and care I’d want for my own. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your fur baby with someone, and I want you to feel at ease knowing they’re in good hands! 🐾❤️ I work full-time as a supervisor, but I have a good work-life balance that allows me to make time for pet sitting. I work from home on Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays, which gives me the flexibility to care for pets while working. I’m also off on weekends, so I have more availability to spend time with your fur babies! I love being able to give pets attention, companionship, and care while making sure they feel safe and comfortaable. My apartment neighborhood has a couple of dog parks, and there are also plenty of nearby trails where I can take dogs for walks and let them enjoy some fresh air. When I’m caring for a dog, I typically take them outside 3–4 times a day for potty breaks, walks, and exercise. I love making sure they get the attention, activity, and care they need. When staying in your home to care for your pets, I’ll also make sure your home is well cared for while you’re away. I’m respectful of your space, mindful of your pet’s routine, and will make sure everything is kept clean.
“Crystal was AWESOME, and I was so appreciative of her taking my very last minute booking. She was so professional and did such a great job with my dog and my home. I came home to an organization house and a very happy dog. I would definitely hire her again!”
“Jessica is AMAZING! We have a young hyper puppy and she is wonderful with her!! She treats all the animals with love and we always feel so comfortable leaving her with them even for extended periods of time. Cannot thank her enough!!”
“Jocelyn was absolutely amazing! Our older dog had an upset stomach from fireworks on the 4th and was refusing to eat her normal kibble- Jocelyn went out of her way to get her some chicken and rice to eat for the remainder of our trip to ease our minds (while dealing with our crazy young dog). We cannot thank her enough and will definitely be looking to use Jocelyn again!”
“Isaiah was a very caring, attentive and professional pet sitter. He followed our pets care instructions well, and they took to him quickly. He sent plenty of photos and updates. We felt assured our beloved animals were in good hands. We will book with him again!”
“Janini did a fantastic job house sitting for our puppy while we were on vacation. Her communication was excellent and felt we were in good hands the whole time. She was great with sending updates, pictures and videos which gave us peace of mind. Highly recommend her to watch your furry friends.”
About: I’ve taken care of pets for 35 years. I am able to administer medications including injectable’s if needed. I work with all breeds and temperaments, and do not shy away from pets that have behavioral issues. I’ve worked extensively with large farm animals to include horses, goats, donkeys, and cattle and have cared for the occasional parrot, chinchilla, and snake. Since pet sitting is my only employment, I am able to provide companionship to your fur family 14-18 hours daily including overnight care. I also am able to check mail, grab packages, and water plants at no additional charge. I keep to your pets normal daily routine, to include walks, potty breaks, feeding schedule, and of course nap times. Let’s set up a meet and greet to see if I’m a good fit. Currently I am only doing pet sitting and it’s my primary and only employment. This enables me to spend more time with your fur babies. I care for pets in your home as requested. I stick to their normal daily schedule. I also water plants and grab mail as needed.
“Amy is excellent!!! We have used her for both drop in visits and house sitting. She always takes great care of our fur babies, and is an excellent communicator. We love the pictures she sends with each visit, as well as her updates. We will definitely be using her services again!”
“Allison is a terrific person to take care of a house and pets. Good communication, willing to bend as needed. She pet-sat during the single month when my long-haired dog sheds constantly. We have to be vigilant with cleaning the house to keep up with it. She left the house super clean. I felt like a real adult was taking my place. She's not the type who will accept a job, then change her mind and leave you stranded. She's responsible, a person who could manage any situation as well as could be expected, and is up for what comes her way. Allison kept up with our flight arrivals and offered to stay an extra night if we experienced cancelations. She visited first and I showed her the routine which is just so helpful. All good!”
“Andrew was everything we want in a dog sitter. Kind, thoughtful, conscientious and funny. Our Oona can be a stubborn hound and we really appreciate him working with her quirks. He was flexible in meeting up with us to ensure we were comfortable leaving her, and he left the house better than he found it! A++”
“Highly professional and personable, Emma did a great job with our Maltichon (2) and Havanese (10) for a two-night, in-home stay. Our older guy has some medical issues and Emma handled things beautifully.”
About: Hello there 👋. I know you are making a big decision about where to place your little fur baby while you are away. I want to assure you I will take care of your little baby/babies as if they were my very own. I specialize in love and care of extra small, small and medium sized pups. I do request a meet and greet because it's important you feel at ease plus i want to ensure the stay is as comfortable as possible while you are away. I can provide lots of love and snuggles and long neighborhood walks. Let me know how I can help. I am available for care throughout the week. I will only commit to stays when I can provide 24 hour in-home care for your fur baby. I am available to care for extra small, small and medium sized pups of all ages. I have 2 very friendly small pups of my own.
About: Hi! I'm a passionate pet sitter with professional experience working in both a boarding kennel and a veterinary clinic. During my time at the kennel, I cared for pets of all ages—from young puppies and kittens to senior pets—and worked with a wide variety of breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I also have experience caring for pets with medical conditions and special needs, including administering medications and providing attentive, individualized care. Working in a veterinary clinic has further strengthened my knowledge of animal health and behavior, allowing me to recognize when a pet may need extra attention and provide confident, compassionate care. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I'll treat them like one of my own. My goal is to keep your pets happy, safe, and comfortable while giving you peace of mind with regular updates and photos throughout my visits. 🐾 I currently work full time at the veterinary clinic but I can pop in multiple times a day to check on your furry friend(s) or I can also stay the night at your house 😊 When caring for your furry friends in their home, my goal is to keep them comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine as much as possible. I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, litter box or potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of companionship and attention based on each pet’s personality and needs. I also have experience working in both a veterinary clinic and a boarding kennel, so I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, breeds, and temperaments, including those with medical conditions or special care instructions. I understand that pets feel most secure in their own environment, so I take the time to make them feel calm and cared for while you’re away. I can administer medications if needed and will closely follow any instructions you provide to ensure their health and well-being. During each visit, I’ll also check that everything is safe and in order in your home, and I’ll provide regular updates with photos and messages so you always know how your pets are doing. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family members are in caring, capable hands. 🐾
About: I have two dogs of my own one of which I trained to be my personal service dog. My second dog we originally were fostering and we adopted her because she fit into our family perfectly and became our other pups best friend. I actively foster puppies and kittens. I’ve done crate training and all the potty scaries with puppies. I’m extremely patient with them and try to meet each dog where they are at. I have experience giving medications to pets as one of my cats has to have daily oral medication. I love my pets and would treat yours as if they were my own 🖤 I have a very flexible schedule and I’m on the road and I have free time during the day and evenings where I am able to fit pet care-sitting into my schedule. I’m a very attentive pet parent myself and don’t typically leave my own dog unattended outside in the yard and I try to be very interactive and engage so they can play. I have 3 cats and enjoy playing with them and spending time with them so they feel cared for.
“We were lucky to find Grace to look after our 2 x dogs and cat! She was communicative, responsible and really thoughtful. For the first time ever, our pets weren't stressed when we arrived home after being away for 10 days. They were calm and happy - a testament to Grace's care and attention. Thank you Grace!”

The average cost of House Sitting in Winterpock is $69 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $35 and $87 per night.

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 Winterpock 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 Winterpock 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 Winterpock 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.
