“We are so grateful for Cameron! Our little Chloe had gotten severe allergies just a week before he had to come to our home and watch and take care of her. He had to administer three different medications multiple times a day. Also monitor her reactions, etc. Also, we had to change our trip and timeframe. He was very flexible. Cameron was very detailed and left notes and did a spreadsheet for us on administering the medication‘s times. He went above and beyond we are so grateful. We will definitely be booking him again. He also left the house cleaner than when we left it. Thank you so much.”
“Alyssa was wonderful with our two high energy dogs and mellow cat. She gave each of them special attention following their feeding instructions perfectly. She sent along pictures while we were away and left our home spotless . Alyssa took great care of our fur family. Highly recommend”
“Kaitlyn was fantastic with Lolly over the the weekend. She was always quick with her responses, communicated well, sent pictures, and I returned home to a happy dog and clean house. Can't ask for much more than that and would highly recommend Kaitlyn!”
“The best petsitting experience. Kate was so flexible with our last-minute booking and other changes and so kind. She sent updates and took great care of not only our pets but our home. Will be rebooking when we need her!!”
“Sara was a great communicator & took great care of our pup, Bodhi! I worry a lot about him, and she listened to all my concerns and took all precautions to keep him safe & healthy. i was able to relax while away! she also left the house nice, would for sure recommend!”
“We’ve used Leona a couple times now (and added a puppy between sits!). She takes care of your home and pets exactly like they were her own. We always get wonderful, detailed updates and lots of pictures when Leona stays with us and are so grateful to her for being so compassionate! Look no further for your new favorite sitter :)”
“Tamarine watched our high-maintenance pups for 2 weeks while we were out of the country and our dogs had a great time! They were well loved and cared for, which was a HUGE weight off as we traveled. Each day we received photo updates that made us smile and made the guilt of leaving them fade away. Tamarine worked with our younger pup to help her with pulling while walking and also focusing from distractions. It's obvious this work has stuck, as she is a new dog when she walks! She respectfully waits for other dogs to pass and doesn't lunge at or jump on passers by. Our older, grumpy chihuaua was also charmed by Tamarine. Would recommend her to anyone!”
“Conrad was great with Myla! He took her on her daily walks, played with her outside, and was very attentive to her needs. Myla can be reactive and has a range of different temperaments, and Conrad did a great job handling her and making sure she was comfortable and well cared for. We really appreciated his communication and care while we were away. Highly recommend! 😊”
“Jane was beyond great! She shared photos of our pups while she watched them at our home. The house was left spotless, and she even washed the sheets! I'll definitely book again.”
“Allison was wonderful with my dog while I was traveling. My pup can be slow to warm up to new people, and Allison won him over very quickly. She was communicative and I felt comfortable while away. I would definitely have her back anytime.”
“Mary stayed with Zeus while I was on vacation and did a wonderful job. She sent regular updates and kept him content at home. She gave all of his medicine as requested. Highly recommend!”
“Rachel was amazing! She stayed at the house and took care of our two dogs - the boys were well cared for and clearly had a good time. She kept the house clean and tidy and was great at communicating. We would definitely have her come back and stay!”
“Rhonda was excellent. Great communicator, flexible and loving on our sweet boy. Left our home clean. We will ask Rhonda to watch after Cosmo again in the future. Thank you, Rhonda!”
“Easiest 5 stars for Mary Sue!!! Our girl got sooo many fun adventures this past week, we received at least 1 update every day and pics to go along, and we were so happy to see how much love she was getting while we were away! Mary Sue also took great care of our place and left us a clean home to come back to after our trip. We would be thrilled to have her back anytime, as would our Bumi !! <3”
“Shari is fantastic! She cared our home as if it were her own and loved our pups as if they were a part of her family. She is professional and friendly in all of her communication and easy to work with. I highly recommend her!”
“We have booked with Brittany several times now and highly recommend her! She has been so caring and patient with my senior kitty who is the original grumpy cat, and our rescue husky girl who can be quite demanding at times. She always responds promptly, keeps us updated, and takes great care of our home.”

Our boys love Ayla and Han! They have stayed in our home a few times now and always leave it perfect and our doodles are happy when we get back. They send the best happy dog pictures while we are away. We don’t worry about the boys when they are in Ayla and Hans hands.
We’ve used Leona a couple times now (and added a puppy between sits!). She takes care of your home and pets exactly like they were her own. We always get wonderful, detailed updates and lots of pictures when Leona stays with us and are so grateful to her for being so compassionate! Look no further for your new favorite sitter :)
Chris was great with Tessa. I could tell during the meet and greet that they would bond quickly. When I got home it was clear Tessa had a good time with Chris. Also, the house was so tidy when I got home. I definitely recommend Chris for housesitting with your pet. I am glad I have someone I can call on in the future.
For the first time - we needed a house sitter for our one year old golden retriever, and we booked Thomas for a week. He did a great job sending pictures and updates, and we could tell that our dog was happy and content. He took her out for many neighborhood walks and potty breaks since we don't have a fenced yard, and was patient with her "sniff walks", which take lots of time! Our house was in perfect order when we returned. I would highly recommend Thomas, and hope that he's available again when we travel!
Daria was amazing with our pets while we were away. We have four dogs and two cats, so it’s definitely not the easiest house to pet sit, and she handled everything so well. Two of our dogs need medication, and all four dogs are notorious for barely eating when we leave. Somehow Daria got every single one of them to eat, even our super picky ones, which honestly says a lot. She sent us updates and photos every day, took great care of the house, and left everything clean when we got home. It was such a relief knowing everyone was being well cared for. We’d absolutely have her pet sit for us again.
Kasey went above and beyond this weekend while watching my two dogs. Theyre BIG dogs and she was amazing with them! She made sure I had check-ins, pictures, clear communication and understood clear expectations for their care. Kasey watched our home as well and left it BETTER than she arrived. She brought toys and things to entertain the pups, which they loved. I couldnt ask for a better pup-sitter! Thank you thank you for giving me peace of mind for the weekend, knowing my big babies were well taken care of.

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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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!

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 .

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.
