“Pam did an amazing job with my 3 kitties. She sent pictures with all of the updates, and was even able to win over the shy guy of the bunch. Will continue to book in the future.”
“Susan did a great job. She checked in when she arrived so I knew she was there taking care of my Freya. She reported what Freya did on her walks and took pictures, so I knew Freya was happy and being taken care of. In the meet and greet prior to her coming, she asked detailed questions and wrote down the answers. I would highly recommend Susan to take care of your furbabies.”
“This was the first time we used Rover for our 3 Samoyeds who mean the world to us. Lory was absolutely amazing! Did a meet and greet first so we would be comfortable with her. She is kind and compassionate and so good with dogs, especially our senior boy. The dogs loved her which means a lot. She was right on time for all the check ins and sent adorable pictures with a note on how everything went. I highly recommend Lory and will definitely plan on using her again!”
“Jillian did an amazing job with my dog Oakley. On the 1st day Oakley was unsure of her and giving her a hard time. Jillian suggested taking the visit down to 30 mins from an hour so it wasn’t to much for him. She did not give up on Oakley and was very patient until he was more comfortable with her. By the end of the week he was much more comfortable and excited to see her”
“What a wonderful experience! I was updated at every visit and even received some cute pictures! Kaylah was an absolute gem! The dogs and cats were so happy to see her! Kaylah made sure the animals were well taken care of. I would recommend her to anyone! Thank you Kaylah!”
“Donna was excellent! What a gem! When we reached out to Rover to find a cat sitter, we were in dire need due to a family health emergency. We have 2 cats and one who needs medical attention. Donna made time in her schedule to take us as clients. Not only that, Donna came over to our home to meet with us and the cats on a very short time frame before we left. Without us even telling her, she brought our mail and any packages inside. Our cats and home was left in great condition and we were honored to have her. Truly a wonderful experience!!!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life!, my first dog when I was little was the same age as me from age 1-to age 10! Growing up with her was a great experience we were best friends and did everything together! For years I’ve stayed at my aunts house twice a year to dog sit her dogs when she would go on vacation, I also stay with my dads dogs when he goes out of town quite frequently. My boyfriend and I have recently bought a van and are deciding to travel around the country in our van full time, so we will have plenty of time and a free schedule to watch/play with your fur babies. I will make sure they are played with and cared for and have lots of pets and cuddles if needed. Also walks or runs depending on what you prefer for them!
About: I have extensive training with large, and even “aggressive” breeds. I currently have two Rottweilers, who are big bears. I have taken care of small (chihuahuas) to large (St. Bernard’s) dogs, animals aren’t just pets, but respectively people’s children. I have a long background in farm care, dog boarding care, medication administering, training. And I really just appreciate the presence of animals. I love training puppies, and respect the boundaries of adult dogs. It’s not a job, its a hobby. I do work from home, but I can make anything work as necessary. I work criminal investigations, and can take breaks and time when needed. I prefer to care for pets in their own home. Most pets get anxious when their “person” is not with them. And I believe that is usually best.
About: I have always grown up around cats and dogs! Friends and family have relied on me a multitude of times to care, feed, walk and spend quality time with their beloved pets!!! I currently work part time and will have plenty of time to hang with your pet! Mornings and afternoons work best. Message me for my details! Your pets will be treated like my own! Quality time is important to me as a pet owner, as well as whatever activity they need!
About: I’ve been around pets my whole life and genuinely love all animals. I had my first cat at age 4 and grew up with both cats and dogs. I also lived with a rescued pit bull for several years (she had a rough past and didn’t do well around other dogs), so I have some experience with anxious pups on walks. I understand how important it is to build trust and work at a pet’s pace. Whether your pet is social and playful or a bit shy and needs space, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at and give them the best care possible. Even with a full-time job in finance, I make time for what matters—and for me, that includes animals. I work a standard weekday schedule, but my evenings and weekends are all open for pet care. The flexibility of my job may allow for a late morning - early afternoon check-in. Whether its a walk, evening check-in, or weekend drop-ins, I’m happy to build a schedule that fits your pet’s needs. I also spend most of my downtime at home, so if your pets need longer visits, I can give them plenty of attention and company. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and committed to keeping your pet’s routine as normal and comforting as possible. I’ll follow your instructions closely—whether it’s feeding, medications, walking schedules, or just the way your pet likes their favorite toy tossed. I know every animal is different, and I take the time to get to know their personality and needs. If we arrange care in my home, your pet will be treated like one of my own. I have a calm, pet-friendly space and three cat companions who are used to other animals and are gentle and well-socialized. I always do a slow introduction and only bring in pets that I know will be comfortable in that environment. Safety and comfort are my top priorities, whether I’m in your home or you're trusting your pet with mine.
“Kilie did an amazing job with our babies while we were away. We had some special circumstances and she did great with everything! She was able to give them their meds and one of our shy boys came out and played which is huge! She gave our eldest lap cuddles. She was in tune with each cat and their needs. She gave us great summaries of each visit with pictures and we could tell they were well cared for when we got home. We will definitely book Kilie again!”
About: Fur babies are apart of the family, let me know how I can help!! I will love them like my own and have a lifetime of experience to rely on I can structure my work week around your needs with enough notice to ensure timely care. Reach out and I will do my best to make it happen! If your pet needs it- I will do it. Over night stays, check ins, walks, playing, grooming and feeding. They deserve the very best always
“Crystal was awesome! Helio is very shy and she was only able to see him when she came to get the key. So instead of play pictures Crystal took pictures of his food for us. I'm hoping after a few trips he will be curious enough to come out when he hears her. In time I'm sure they will be buddies ?”
About: I’ve always loved dogs and truly enjoy spending time with them! I have a 4-year-old dog of my own who is friendly, playful, and gets along great with other dogs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different personalities and love giving them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles. When your pup is in my care, I’ll treat them like one of my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pet, and I’ll do my best to give you peace of mind with regular updates and lots of love for your furry friend! 🐶❤️ I’m available most weekends and have more flexibility to spend time with your pup. Monday through Friday, I work from 6:30 AM to 3:00 PM. Before work, I always make sure my own dog gets outside for some morning exercise and attention. When I get home, we spend time playing and relaxing together in our fenced-in yard. Your pup will be welcomed into our routine and given plenty of love, attention, and playtime! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play and get some exercise, and I’ll always supervise outdoor time. I have a friendly 4-year-old dog who gets along great with other dogs and can provide a companion for your pup. I’ll make sure every dog in my care feels comfortable, secure, and treated like part of the family. I’m also happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and any special instructions.
About: I have been a dog lover since birth. I am a certified personal trainer and tennis coach during the day. Dog walker/father 24/7. I currently work as a personal trainer and private tennis coach during the day. My schedule is managed by booking jobs on first come first serve basis. I have a small 12 pounds poodle mix named Sully. Born and raised in NYC, he is now 13 years old and loving the freedom of Syracuse. His treats are always organic and his water is always bottled. He loves a good probiotic which has kept his digestive system excellent. Safety is my biggest priority. I always watch the ground to make sure he doesn’t step on anything dangerous and I always watch my surroundings. After each walk I clean his paws with a water wipe.
“Lee came in and was able to take care of Striker when we needed someone last minute. Striker is a shy and cautious girl, but Lee handled her with the patience and care she needed. Thank you Lee!”
“Courtney was spectacular! She followed instructions to a T, and went above and beyond to help Willow, even down to cleaning up some cat puke lol. Would highly recommend!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Woodard
We decided last minute to spend the night at a wedding we were going to. Lory was very accommodating and once again did a fabulous job with taking care of our babies. We never have to worry when we’re away which is priceless. I would highly recommend choosing her.
Again, Josiah has proved to be exemplary!! My plans changed twice due to a train scheduling issue and a major storm. He accommodated both changes with his usual calm manner. He is a complete professional. And my cat loves him - Hey (my cat) who doesn't ever come out to meet anyone, came out once in two weeks! That's LOVE in my cat's book. I have complete trust in him and I will always choose Josiah.
We couldn't ask for a better dog sitter. Pam consistently goes above and beyond in every way. We have high-energy stubborn cattle dogs, and she handles them with confidence, patience, and genuine care. Our dogs love her, but they also respect her, which says a lot about her ability to connect with them. She's smart, proactive, and thoughtful. She doesn't just follow instructions—she anticipates our needs, thinks through situations on her own, and always makes decisions with our dogs' best interests in mind. She's also an excellent communicator, keeping us updated and making sure we're always informed. Her communication gives us peace of mind and makes us feel completely comfortable whenever we're away. Beyond her professionalism, she's very kind. We can tell she cares about our dogs. We trust her completely and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone exceptional to care for their pets.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Woodard is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $32 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 558 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Woodard. 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 Woodard. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
