“Zaira was a lifesaver!! The day before she was scheduled to watch my dog, Darla (my dog) got super sick and had to go to the vet. Zaira was super flexible, helped pick her up from the vet for me along with her meds, and took great care of her while I was on a mandatory work trip!! She saved my butt and was so flexible and accomodating, turning a really anxious and scary situation around for me. Will totally book again, thank you Zaira for being awesome!!!”
“Manisha did an excellent job dog sitting during Thanksgiving week when no one else could. We had full trust in her after our initial meeting. She’s very responsible and our two dogs were in excellent hands while we were away. We were very fortunate to find her. Scott W.”
“Megan was wonderful! She sent lots of pictures and took Jax for a walk every day. Jinx, our cat also loved her and got plenty of cuddles and attention from Megan. She communicated with us our entire trip and made us feel comfortable with leaving our babies in her care. We will definitely have Megan back for our next trip. Thank you Megan!”
About: I am a High School graduate looking to meet pets and make a few dollars while waiting to go off to college. I have worked at Chick-Fil-A for two years and have 7 furry friends of my own (your pets don’t have to meet mine if you don’t want them too!) so I know how pets of all kinds behave. Pet care for me can be any time pretty much because I recently quit my job and don’t have much happening until I go off for college. My house is fenced in, I keep careful eyes on pets, and will ensure your pet has the best times of their lives when they are with me. I guarantee it!
About: Hi pet parents! My name is Becca, and I have been pet-sitting for 8 years. Throughout that experience, many pet parents of varying ages have entrusted me with their furry children. I adore caring for animals, as I have a sweet orange cat of my own! I promise that I will give the same care and love to your pet that I give to my own little one. I currently work part time, and I am usually off at the critical times when I would need to drop in to feed your pet! I am always able to adjust my schedule to fit the times you will need me, especially in advance. The biggest thing for me when caring for my pets as well as your pet is to prioritize quality time with them. In addition to food of course. I make sure to spend as much time with my pets as I can, as they definitely notice when you're not interested in spending time with them. "Most importantly, I will try my best to make sure your pet is comfortable and not stressed. Trust between myself and my clients and their pets is essential!
“Deshun was a consummate professional. He showed up a week before the scheduled dog sit just to meet my dog and make sure there weren't any issues. He kept me updated with daily pics of him and Phoebe having a great time and left my apartment in perfect shape. Would definitely hire again.”
“Jake was a pleasure to work with—communicative, responsible, and highly respectful of our home and pets. We returned to happy dogs and a well-cared-for home, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely work with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet and house sitter.”
“Bella did a fantastic job watching my puppy, Pistol. She came and met us before the booking began. She kept me informed the whole time and sent pictures. I came home to a very happy dog, and I will definitely be scheduling her again!”
“Savannah is amazing! Our dog, Willy, was genuinely bummed when we got home and Savannah had to leave lol. She played with him a lot, sent us many great photos, and gave him tons of fun and attention. He was a very happy dog and slept like a rock that night. We’re definitely rebooking with her next time we’re in town. Thanks, Savannah!”
About: I’ve helped teach my dogs at home and love on older dogs. I volunteer at the shelter all the time. I have had animals ever since I was little. I have a part time job and can work this in however needed! Whether it’s stopping by or staying around, I am willing to work with you! No matter where I am, animals are constantly being loved and cared for by me. I will make sure they’re fed, cared for, walked, played with, and whatever else is needed.
About: I've been pet sitting for four years, caring for 15+ animals ranging from dogs and cats to fish. Whether it's overnight stays at your home or multiple drop-in visits throughout the day, I make sure your pet stays comfortable, safe, and on their routine while you're away. Your home and your pet will be treated with the same care I'd give my own. As a student with a flexible schedule, pet care fits seamlessly into my day. I have plenty of availability for drop-in visits throughout the day, overnight stays, and last-minute bookings, including weekdays, weekends, and holidays. Your pet will never feel like a gap in someone's busy calendar. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is keeping their routine as normal as possible so they feel comfortable and stress-free while you're away. I'll follow your feeding schedule, walk and play with them on their usual schedule, keep their space clean and tidy, and give them plenty of attention and affection throughout the day. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you always know how they're doing. Your home will be treated with the same respect and care as my own.
About: I have grown up with dogs for my entire life and I now have a cat of my own. I have taken care of friends and families animals in the past and I am very reliable, caring, and friendly. Animals bring me so much joy and I treat any animal as if it were my own. I am working in a salon four days out of the week but I will be available in the mornings and the evenings of any day to provide attention to your pet. Given that I have a cat of my own, I know how angry and hurt I would be if I put her in the care of someone else and she was neglected. With that being said, you can trust that I will not put you in that position! Animals are innocent and unable to communicate their needs. Not only will I provide the essentials, I will go above and beyond to make sure your pet is happy and comfortable!
“Hayden was so amazing with my two kittens! Constant pictures clearly showing love and affection to both of them! She was very respectful and kept the place very clean. She’s super easy to get along with and I would 100% recommend her to anyone! Definitely will be booking more with Hayden!”
About: I have many years of experience with dogs and other pets of all kinds. I was a sitter for many local families and their pets were always taken care of and loved. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away, and I always treat every animal like my own. I am a college student completing my work online. I am home full time spend most of my dog spending time with my dog polar. I have a quiet house for dogs who prefer a more peaceful environment but I also have a fenced in park area where I sometimes spend the day at for more high energy pets. The environment is very safe and your pets will be watched and safe at all time.
About: I’ve had dogs in my home for as long as I can remember, and being around them has been a part of my life since birth. Because of that, I’m very comfortable with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Spending time with them has always been one of my greatest joys, especially if it’s going for long walks and giving belly rubs. I’m currently set to attend law school, which means I’m temporarily separated from my own fur baby back home. While I miss her every day, pet sitting gives me the chance to share that same love and attention with your pets. Caring for animals fills a space in my heart and allows me to do something I genuinely enjoy while helping fellow pet parents have peace of mind. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pup is energetic and loves adventures or prefers cuddles and quiet companionship, I’m happy to adapt to what makes them happiest. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, which is why keeping you updated with plenty of photos, videos, and messages is of the utmost importance to me. I can’t wait to meet you and your four-legged best friend! I am currently taking the summer off from any part-time jobs and internships before I start school this August. I have a very open and flexible schedule! When caring for your pet in your home, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining the routine they’re familiar with. I’m also great at following specific instructions because I know every pet has unique needs.

FAQs for House Sitting - Wood Villas
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Wood Villas on Rover is $47.17 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 173 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wood Villas. 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 Wood Villas 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 Wood Villas 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 Wood Villas 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
