“Sierra was so fantastic! She was kind, thorough, and so thoughtful in her care of my puppy. She gave detailed accounts of each visit and took a lot of pictures, which was much appreciated! She was very easy to communicate with and always responded quickly. She did everything that was asked of her, and my puppy adored her. I highly recommend Sierra to anyone who needs their pet cared for, she went above and beyond for us and we will definitely be return customers!”

“Megan was absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of our three little ones and treated them like her own. From the very beginning, she showed great attention to detail and made sure every need was met — from feeding and walks to cuddles and playtime. It was clear how much love and care she put into everything she did. We came home to three happy, relaxed pups and couldn’t be more grateful. We highly recommend Megan to anyone looking for a reliable, loving, and attentive sitter!”

About: I loved animals ever since I was a kid and raised and trained my dog Zephyr since he was a year old. I adore all animals care for two rodents of my own named Orchid and Meadow. I often petsit for my family and friends and have taken care of a wide variety of animals. I've taken care of pets of all ages from puppies to my senior dog who currently has from dementia. I am very patient and licensed CNA so I know how to handle a mess. I am a freshman in college though my classes are very light. I'm free after 9am on Mondays and Wednesdays, Tuesdays and Thursdays I'm free after 12:15 though I can come in earlier anytime before 9, Fridays can vary for me but I'm typically free after 9-10 am though sometimes if I have an exam it might be an hour or so later though I can always make arrangements if necessary. I care for pets by following their routine, spending lots of time with them, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m respectful of my client's homes and always clean up after the pets and leave everything as I found it. I After a procedure my dog needed to be crate trained so I know how to handle that.

About: I have hands on pet care experience from working in doggy daycare & being a dog mom myself! I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, including puppy care, basic training & those who need a little extra help getting around these days. I'm also comfortable administering medications as directed, but I don't currently administer insulin. While house sitting, I'm happy to help with light housekeeping, tidying up, and little extras like bringing in mail or watering plants at a small extra charge. My goal is to keep your pets happy, safe, and loved while keeping your home tidy! I work Monday - Friday until 4:30pm, so I'm generally available for pet care in the evenings and on weekends. I'm happy to coordinate with pet parents to find a schedule that works best for their pets' needs. I'm also open to house sitting and being flexible to the pets' schedule while I'm in home as well! Your pets safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priorities! I follow your care instructions, maintain your pet's normal routine, and keep doors, gates, and outdoor areas secure. I'll send regular updates and pictures so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I also have a 1 yr old Bernese Mtn Dog who may be able to keep your pup company with your permission and only if it's a good fit for both dogs. I treat your home with respect and strive to make your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable!

About: I have always been an animal lover. I grew up in a home that always had a fur baby and as I grew up I have always had a fur baby of my own. I personally believe owning a pet makes a house a home. Aside from my personal experience with pets, I also was an assistant at an in-home pet sitting business for 4+ years. I currently work full-time as a nurse practitioner. My weekly schedule consists of 4 10 hour shifts 6:00am-4:30pm. I have all evenings available during the week for pet sitting. I have 1 weekday per week available and do not work at the hospital on weekends, which make them perfect for pet sitting! I will make sure to discuss your pets routine with you in detail to ensure their schedule is not disrupted when you are away. Consistency is important to not only us, but also our fur babies. Keeping things consistent and providing quality 1:1 time are a priority of mine.

About: I will modify and add $45 to care for places 30-60 miles past Gallatin, MO. If you know more of people that want care close to you, I can split the fee! Trustworthy and dependable, I have taken care of a wide variety of animals animals over the years, including dogs, outdoor cats, ragdoll cat, birds, chickens, horses, and calves. I understand every animal has its own unique needs and deserves compassionate care. Whether it's walks, feeding, playtime, drop in visits, overnight stays, or giving medication, I will provide reliable care. I have a flexible schedule I can work around for pets staying here, sleeping on the floor or outside. I will be gone during the day some days of the week, if they are ok left alone. I work at a greenhouse 3 days a week and could take puppies under a year with me to work. And also most dogs if theyre used to be out and about. I would accept puppies under a year not fixed. I have 2 ziplines in my yard and your pets are more than welcome to stay here if they would be OK with those accommodations. I can pick up and drop off typically would suit best in the evenings. I would also stay in your home so they could stay in familiar territory, but i have a greenhouse job and will be gone a good part of the day. And also work prn at an assisted living but il try to wait till 2 weeks till to pick up shifts. Cuz thats my requirement for bookings. I also have a 1 year old Aussie Mountain Doodle that will be coming with me. He loves meeting new friends. If youre worried about him getting along we can do a meet and greet. I look forward to meeting you and your pets. My profile shows Kingston, it's because I work in Kearney and am around there a lot. So dropping by between Jamesport and Kearney will be easy. I had to move my town to get the area I wanted. I have a flexible schedule and can work around it to help care for your pets, for drop in visits, walks, feeding, playtime or stays. I will care for your pets and home as if it were my own. I have stayed in multiple air bnbs and have a high rating as a traveler.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Wood Heights

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 1,024 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Wood Heights. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Wood Heights. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.

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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
