“Five stars is not enough for the incredible care our two fur babies received from Catherine K.! From start to finish, Catherine was exceptionally professional and made the entire experience completely stress-free. Her communication was outstanding, providing us with regular updates and wonderful photos that kept our minds at total ease while we were away. It was clear from the moment she took over that our cats were in safe, highly capable, and loving hands. Catherine went above and beyond to maintain their daily routines and allowed them their space to become comfortable with her. If you want absolute peace of mind and a sitter who treats your pets like family, look no further than Catherine K. We will absolutely be booking her again!”
“Audrey did a wonderful job caring for my two pups, Ferrari and Aston! She exceeded my expectations, and I genuinely appreciated the care, attention, and thoughtfulness she showed throughout their stay. One of the things I appreciated most was her excellent communication. She kept me informed of any issues that came up and consistently shared pictures and videos so I could see how my babies were doing. Knowing that she was keeping a close eye on them and communicating with me gave me tremendous peace of mind while I was away. What really impressed me was Audrey’s willingness to go the extra mile. When Ferrari didn’t poop during his initial potty break, she took him out again to give him another opportunity rather than simply leaving it at that. That extra effort showed that she was attentive to his needs and genuinely wanted to make sure he was taken care of. She also graciously stayed additional time to accommodate my late arrival. She was completely understanding and didn’t make me feel bad about needing the extra time. Her flexibility and willingness to help were greatly appreciated! These thoughtful gestures speak volumes about Audrey’s character and the kind of care she provides. She didn’t just show up to fulfill her responsibilities; she paid attention to the little things that matter when someone is caring for your fur babies. Her communication, patience, flexibility, and willingness to go above and beyond made a real difference. If you’re looking for a pet sitter who is attentive, dependable, communicative, and willing to go the extra mile, I highly recommend Audrey! It’s such a relief to find someone who understands that our pets are family and treats their care with that level of importance. Thank you, Audrey, for taking such great care of Ferrari and Aston! ❤️🐶🐶 I truly appreciate everything you did, including the extra potty trip for Ferrari and your flexibility with my arrival time. Those things did not go unnoticed! I would absolutely recommend you to other pet parents and would be happy to have you care for my pups again. You were a blessing to us! 🐾💕”
“Shannon did amazing with my pup Mia! She sent tons of pictures so I didn’t have to miss her too much, and gave her lots of exercise since she’s a high energy doggo! Super pleased, I’ll definitely book her again.”
“What an incredible pet sitter! I got multiple photos and updates, and she even brushed my dog! Both he and my home looked great when I returned. Elisabeth asked great questions when I met her and wanted to keep his routine consistent while I was gone. I look forward to working with her again real soon.”
“Natalie took great care of our dog while we were away. I had some concerns leaving our dog with a stranger for the first time because he can be protective of his home. Natalie made the time to come meet our pup at a neutral spot and then headed to the home so he could get use to her in his environment. The meet and greet went well and our dog was excited to see her when she came to stay overnight. Natalie was very quick when returning my texts and calls. She took great care of our pup while we were away and we will use her again in the future.”

“Cathy was amazing with our Fair Lady Belle. Cathy had a sweet manner when dealing our three year old Bolo and spent lots of walking and playing time. When Cathy left Belle sat in her window and cried. That was all we needed to see. It was obvious that they had formed a bond. Thank you Cathy for taking such good care of our “baby”. We wil be excited for your next visit and Belle agrees.”

About: I’ve taken care of so many dogs since i was 12. I use to work for pet care and got cpr training from there too. Im always active, i love walking, lifting, and being on the move for work. Walking dogs and playing with them, that makes me so happy. I will always walk them at their speed and play as much as they want. Making sure they’re safe, and making sure they’re comfortable too.
“Sophia was an amazing Rover! She kept us updated the whole time and seriously spoiled Roxie while we were gone! Is was so nice knowing our dog was in good hands the whole time we were gone:)”
“Keirsten and Zeeke hit it off immediately and it was refreshing to see them both have an amazing time while she house sat and took care of our elderly statesman. She provided constant updates, pictures, videos, and made sure to ask all the important questions to take care of our pup. Would definitely recommend.”
About: I have lots of experience caring for animals. I grew up on a farm and cared for many, big and small critters, have raised and shown dogs and fancy pigeons, have raised parrots for commercial sale to pet stores, and have volunteered at animal shelters where I cared for and rescued so many dogs and cats. Your pet's safety and enjoyment are of the utmost importance when I care for them. I have a good understanding of their body language and can anticipate their individual needs and safety. When I sit a pet I try to make sure they get the exercise and attention they need. I haven't met a dog or cat I didn't like and didn't enjoy spending time with. Bottom line is that I will take the best care of your family member. PETS I SIT HAVE AN AREA IN MY HOUSE SEPARATE FROM OTHER CRITTERS, ARE GIVEN MY UNDIVIDED ATTENTION, LEAVE HAPPY, AND ARE HAPPY ON RETURNS. I am currently retired and have plenty of time to walk your dog at a minimum of 4 15-20 minute walks a day with a pee break at night. If I leave the house for a short period I take precautions to ensure your pet’s safety. My yard and wooded area of 3 acres is not fenced. However, I always walk dogs at lease four times a day to ensure their safety.
About: Hey everyone! I’m Melanie, a recent Environmental Science grad from George Mason University. I absolutely love taking morning and afternoon strolls at the nearby parks as it’s a nice way to unwind and enjoy nature! When it comes to pet’s, I've been a dog lover since I was a kid! My family has always had furry companions around, and caring for them truly brings me so much joy. I’m a morning person, so I love getting my errands done early in the day! It gives me a sense of accomplishment to kick off my day. I'm also flexible with my time and can easily adjust to fit your needs! As a pet sitter, I truly believe in being respectful and caring while I’m in your home. You can count on me to take great care of your pet with plenty of love and gentleness.
“This was our first time booking with Selina. We had a meet and greet prior to the sitting time. And, we knew at that time that she was the sitter for us. During our time away, Selina kept us informed and sent pictures. She even had a sighting or two of one of our kitties who normally hides from the world when we are away. Selina cleaned up after the cats eating sessions and kept our flowers alive. All of our cats were very happy in Selina's care and we will be booking again. Thank you Selina!”

Emma is the absolute best! We were so excited when she was available to watch our dog and cats for over a week. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the week, and our babies seemed to enjoy themselves a lot, and were so happy when we got back! We would definitely recommend Emma to anyone looking for a good reliable sitter to leave their pets with!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Woodbine is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $44 and $44 per night. 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.

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 Woodbine 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 Woodbine 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 Woodbine 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 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.

- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 94% 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.
