“Leona truly did an amazing job. She’s very responsive, very timely and keep us well updated. She went above and beyond cleaning up. Would highly recommend her and would definitely ask her again to watch our furry fellas!”
“I loved having Alyssa stay with Camden! She was a great at keeping me posted on dog/house and took good care of my house while i was gone for 9 days. She left everything in tip top shape and was loving with my dog...will definitely book her again!”
“Lindsay was great! She sent daily updates and photos of our dogs and took great care of them while we were away. Our dogs seemed to love her! She also left our house nice and clean. We would definitely use Lindsay again next time we need someone to watch our dogs. Thank you Lindsay!”
“Caleb took care of our two older dogs, both who had special diets and medications to track. He was responsive during the stay and the house was left exactly as we left it. We received pics of the pups along the way who seemed happy and healthy upon our return. We will definitely use Caleb again for another home stay!”
“I adore these people. My only hesitation in posting a great review is that we want to keep Ayla & Han all to ourselves!! Expert care infused with love, kindness, compassion, and genuine affection for our dog and cats. Our dog is almost 13 years old and requires twice-daily medications. I never worry about Mamie’s care needs. We have one very extroverted cat (Goji) and one very shy cat (BellaPearl). I’m so surprised that by this 3rd sit this year, Bella is seeking affection from Ayla! That’s more high praise than I can offer. Truly. I can’t wait to get home to see them all. Thank you, Ayla & Han for EVERYTHING, and, more importantly, being exactly who you are. Absolute gems!”
“Polina and John took excellent care of our playful and energetic puppy! Their communication was great, they sent us lots of pictures and loved on her like she was their own. Highly recommend their services!”
“Loved Daria! She was extremely flexible with my schedule for pick up/drop off of Luna. She also sent pics and vids of her during the trip to check-in. I'll definitely use her in the future to watch Lu again :)”
“Tessa was great! She was responsive and took great care of our sweet guy. Our house was left clean, she asked to water our plants, and our cat seemed very well cared for while we were gone. We will definitely use Tessa again!”
“Deborah was excellent and was great with communication! She sent daily photos of my pets, and even got my shy cat to warm up to her. House as left cleaned, and didnt have to worry on my trip away!”
“Fiona is awesome! She came over and met us and our pups before we left town for a funeral. She took great care of them and the house while we were gone. She even came by again to let our dogs out potty before some of our friends came over to house sit. We will be using her again and we would definitely recommend her.”
About: I’ve cared for animals in my home since I can remember. House sitting and boarding are just few of the tasks family, and friends have trusted me to do. I have experience with small dogs, big dogs, cats, and even some pigs! I absolutely love animals and would be so excited to care for your fur babies! I’m very active and usually walk at least 5 miles a day, so I’d love to have a four-legged buddy join me. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or keeping them entertained, I’ll make sure they get lots of love and attention. I do work full-time, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care into my day and make sure your pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I care for every pet like they’re my own! I love sticking to their normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free. Whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, administering medications (if needed), or just giving them lots of love and attention, I’m happy to tailor my care to each pet’s needs. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away, and I’ll always keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages!
“Thomas W. was an excellent pet and house sitter. We would definitely use him again. Our house was in good shape and the dog was fine. He sent pictures every day so we were able to enjoy our vacation and not worry.”
“Madi was absolutely amazing again. Not only does she care for the animals, she leaves the house looking amazing and a sweet treat after. We love you Madi 🩷❤️ I trust you more than our own family to watch over our fur babies haha 🤣”
“Kimberly took great care of Milo and our house. Communication was timely before we left, the meet and greet was helpful to get acquainted. While we were away Kimberly was good about sending updates and pictures as well as asking questions. Nice to have that peace of mind while away”
About: I am a big time animal lover that has taken care of dogs, cats and rabbits for over 8 years. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to check in with, feed and play with their animals. I’m currently working 4 10 hour days with Fridays and weekends off. I would be able to hang out with or stop in with your pets in the morning and evening Monday-Thursday or anytime Friday-Sunday I can stop by or stay over and do whatever is needed to take care of the pets in my clients’ home including crating, feeding, letting outside and more!
“Annabelle is awesome! She took great care of my pup, giving her plenty of attention and playtime. Going to be reaching out to her in the future when I need care for my Maeve. Would recommend.”

Megan was a pleasure to work with, and she took such good care of our dog. She was very attentive to communicating with us, and it was clear our dog had the best time with her! Megan stayed in our house and took really good care of our home while we were away. Thank you, Megan!
5 Stars – Amazing Sitter! Lexie was absolutely wonderful with Manna! She sent us daily updates and photos, which we really appreciated, and it was clear from all the pictures that Manna was happy, relaxed, and well-loved while we were away. She kept his food and water fresh, scooped his litter box daily, and even washed the sheets and towels before we got home. The house looked great when we returned, and Manna was in fantastic spirits. We would definitely book Lexie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!
Leslie was truly wonderful. I fostered and adopted a very traumatized cat that had numerous medical conditions. My cat George, very shy afraid of people and animals. Leslie went above and beyond to make sure my little guy was taken care of properly. She was great with instructions sent beautiful picks. Leslie understood my cats character, overall disposition and background history. Leslie took care of my little guy like it was her own. I highly recommend Leslie taking care of if, sitting etc.. for your furry friend.
Nicole did a wonderful job with our old girl. Sheba is showing all of her 14.5 years, with increasingly limited mobility and less predictable potty behavior. Nicole took it all in stride and provided excellent care. One testament to this is that Sheba had no accidents. We have already booked Nicole for another trip we are taking out of town. You can fully trust her to take care of your fur baby! She also does a great job with communication - including photos, a very nice touch!
We had an excellent experience with our Zoey! She took wonderful care of our pup and kept us updated with photos and text messages throughout our trip, which gave us great peace of mind. She even double-checked our return time to ensure our dog was cared for until the very last moment. When we returned, our home was clean and well maintained, and our dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. The meet-and-greet before our trip was excellent and showed her attention to detail and genuine care for both our pet and our home. She is kind, trustworthy, dependable, and attentive. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.
We LOVE Katy. She is a delight and Dottie is always smiling when she's around. We were lucky to have her house-sit for ten days, and all was grand upon our return. I am so grateful to have someone like her to help. Thanks, Katy! We'll definitely see you for the next one.

FAQs for House Sitting - Wolhurst
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Wolhurst on Rover is $66.43 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 8,232 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wolhurst. 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 Wolhurst 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 Wolhurst 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 Wolhurst 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 Wolhurst. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
