“Kathleen was absolutely wonderful and I cannot recommend her enough! She went above and beyond and we received updates morning and night along with photos which made our family trip so much more enjoyable knowing our animals were comfortable in their own home and in great hands. Kathleen, we cannot thank you enough! You will always be our go to if ever needed in the future.”

“Valerie was fantastic. I've used her twice so far, once for a few day vacation and once for an overnight. My poor girl is a little neurotic and has social and generalized anxiety. She's on a ton of daily meds and has a few situation meds as well. She very quickly warmed up to Valerie. I already have care sheets printed up for my girl, but Valerie came with a notebook prepared to write everything down so that she wouldn't have to rely solely on her memory. She was very flexible on the day of our meet and greet when I had to work 2hrs later than I expected. She was also willing to be flexible on start/end dates (within what her schedule allowed). Ended up not needing to change plans on the vacation, but she did end up coming over early on the day of the overnight (with unfortunately not as much notice as I should have given her). Valerie spent most the day(s) and all nights with my girl and sent photo updates. Fortunately, my dog only had one freak out while I was gone, and Valerie was very patient with her. Before I left for vacation, I'd tried to clean as much as I could, but there were a couple of things I meant to do and just ran out of time. When I got home, the house was actually a bit cleaner than I left it. She didn't reorganize my things or anything that I'd have been frustrated by, just... that little bit extra. Could not have asked for a better sitter. Will definitely be reaching out again!”

“She was amazing. She even took Pixie to the dog park. Left my house perfect and Pixie was a super happy and healthy pup when I got home. Im so greatful for how she took care of Pixie!”

“Erin is an exceptional dog sitter, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She takes wonderful care of my dog, Roxie, and always treats her as if she were her own. Erin keeps Roxie on her normal schedule, takes her on several walks each day, and makes sure all of her needs are met. It's such a comfort knowing Roxie is in caring, capable hands whenever I'm away. Erin is dependable, attentive, and clearly loves animals. Roxie is always happy, well cared for, and comfortable when she's with Erin. I am incredibly grateful for the care and attention she provides. If you're looking for a trustworthy and dedicated dog sitter, Erin is the best!”

“Kinsey did great with our dogs and made sure they stayed on their routines while we were out of town. She communicated as well when she had questions. Highly recommend her services and will book her again next time!”


“After a previous bad experience boarding our dogs at a kennel, we were incredibly nervous about leaving them again. We decided to try Rover’s house sitting service, and finding Alexis was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. From our very first meet-and-greet, we knew she was someone special. Within about 10 minutes, one of our dogs showed Alexis a level of affection and trust that we’ve honestly never seen with anyone outside of our family. That immediately gave us confidence that she was the right person to care for our pups. Throughout our trip, Alexis went far beyond simply “watching the dogs.” She treated our home with incredible respect, brought in our mail, took out the trash, and kept everything in wonderful order. Most importantly, she cared for our dogs as if they were her own. She sent regular updates and photos, which meant the world to us and allowed us to truly relax while we were away. Every message reassured us that our dogs were happy, comfortable, and receiving so much love and attention. My spouse was especially anxious about having someone stay in our home, but Alexis completely exceeded every expectation we had. She is trustworthy, thoughtful, professional, kind, and genuinely loves animals. Those qualities shine through in everything she does. It’s almost bittersweet writing such a glowing review because we know it means she’ll become even busier, but she absolutely deserves every bit of recognition she receives. Outstanding sitters like Alexis are rare, and we feel incredibly fortunate that we found her. We will be rebooking with her every chance we get and sincerely hope her schedule allows it! If you’re considering Alexis to care for your pets, don’t hesitate. She gave us complete peace of mind, loved our dogs like family, and exceeded our expectations in every possible way. Thank you, Alexis, for taking such amazing care of our home and our two dogs. We’re beyond grateful and cannot recommend you highly enough.”

“Morgan was WONDERFUL! We were gone on a 10 day trip and couldn’t have felt better leaving our two dogs (one of which is older and requires extra care) and our three cats in her care. She provided regular updates and spoiled them. We would definitely hire her again!”
“Mia was awesome when she stayed at our house to watch our 2 dogs. She sent updates and pictures, and made sure they were well taken care of all weekend! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter! My dogs seemed so happy with her!”

“Jennifer was top notch! Very professional and great with communication while we were out of town for the day. She gave us lots of updates and photos and we came home to a very happy pup! Would highly recommend Jennifer! Will definitely use her again and again!”

“This was my first time having Brandon watch Gracie. At our meet and greet, Gracie took right to him which is very unusual for her. I'm always nervous leaving my girl with someone new. Brandon was great about keeping me updated with pictures and texts daily. I had a lot of packages delivered while I was gone. Brandon took them all in and neatly put them in the dining room, He waited until I got back home to leave even though I told him he could go before I got there. I would definitely use Brandon again and would recommend him to anyone who needed great dog sitter.”

“Emily was great with our two cats! I have one super social kitty and one not so social kitty and both completely hit it off with her. We also scheduled everything very last minute and on a holiday to boot, but Emily made it incredibly easy to plan and took a lot of the stress out of the evening for us. We will be in contact again as necessary - and thank you SO much Emily!!”

“Elise was a great sitter that took care of my three dogs and two cats. She was very kind and when we returned all animals were happy healthy and house well care for. Highly recommend her!”

“Grace was great and our pets loved having her at the house. She was very responsive and sent photos of them hanging out with her daily. She even went as far as to clean up the cat box, backyard and do what laundry she used. Would highly recommend as long as we get first dibs ??”

“Emma always takes amazing care of our girl! She sends pictures while we are gone for a week and even sends pictures when she just comes to walk her during the middle of the day while we are at work. She even did a little art project with Piper to give to us as a gift for engagement. We moved to Dayton a year ago and Emma is the best thing that has happened to us since then! Piper always seems in the best spirits when we get home and we know she is well loved while we are gone. We are so lucky to know Emma and always leave home knowing our dog is in the BEST hands.”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have over 30 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up with cats and have spent the last several years loving my own Aussiedoodle, Scout. We recently lost our cat, and I truly miss those kitty cuddles, so I’d be thrilled to spend time caring for yours. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, or simply giving your pet companionship while you’re away, I’ll treat them like family. I’m active, dependable, detail-oriented, and happy to follow your pet’s routine exactly as you prefer. I’ll also send plenty of photo and text updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I work for myself, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide dependable care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet check-ins. Whether your pet needs a midday potty break, a long walk, or some extra love while you’re away, I’ll do my best to accommodate your schedule and keep your furry family member happy, exercised, and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I understand that every animal has a unique personality and routine, so I’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, medications, walks, playtime, and any special needs. I believe in earning both your trust and your pet’s trust through patience, consistency, and kindness. You’ll receive regular updates and photos during each visit, and I’ll always treat your home with the same respect I’d expect someone to show mine.
“Ben is literally the BEST!!! Blue loves his boy time with him when I got out of town. He gives me daily updates and pictures. I know Blue is safe with Ben and my heart couldnt be more happy!!”

“Dorothy was super communicative and accommodating after my sitter cancelled on us last minute. We will absolutely book her again. We got a lot of pictures and felt safe knowing our fur babies were taken care of!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Woodbourne-Hyde Park
After a previous bad experience boarding our dogs at a kennel, we were incredibly nervous about leaving them again. We decided to try Rover’s house sitting service, and finding Alexis was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. From our very first meet-and-greet, we knew she was someone special.

Katie did such a great job taking care of our dogs and cat while we were away for vacation! Katie sent amazing pictures every day and was always super responsive. We knew the pets were in great hands and can tell that they had a great time! She also took great care of the house, brought in the mail, and cleaned up before we got back, which was greatly appreciated! Would definitely recommend Katie!

She took on a last-minute mission to take care of my two dogs, including one trouble maker😌 and one senior dog needed insulin shots. She took time to meet and greet and actively communicated with us before and throughout the duration. She was also fast to reply messages and sent us picture updates, etc. Would definitely recommend her!

Asche did a great job watching Sophie in my home. She followed the instructions and made it to my place in spite of us getting 14 inches of snow just two days before! That is dedication and reflects well on Rover. Sophie took right to her from the first visit. I could tell instantly that she loves taking care of our fur babies I'll be reaching out to her again whenever I need Sophie watched in my home.

FAQs for House Sitting - Woodbourne-Hyde Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Woodbourne-Hyde Park on Rover is $28.86 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 784 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Woodbourne-Hyde Park. 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 Woodbourne-Hyde Park 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 Woodbourne-Hyde Park 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 Woodbourne-Hyde Park 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 with handling special pet needs in Woodbourne-Hyde Park. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
