About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover with 5 years of experience caring for pets, including pet sitting for family, friends, and people in my community. I’ve always been someone others can trust with their pets, and I genuinely love getting to know each animal’s personality, quirks, and routines. 💗 I have pets of my own, so I understand how hard it can be to leave your fur babies with someone else. When they’re in my care, I treat them like my own with plenty of love, attention, playtime, cuddles, and the (not so) occasional treat! 💗 I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats, including pets with special needs. I have experience administering oral and injectable medications to both dogs and cats and am comfortable following detailed instructions and maintaining their normal routines. 💗 I also always like to do a meet & greet before accepting a booking. It gives me a chance to meet you and your pet, learn their routine, go over any special instructions, and make sure everyone feels comfortable. 💗 I’m also naturally a clean and tidy person and am great about cleaning up after myself. I’ll take care of your home just as thoughtfully as I take care of your pets and will always do my best to leave things as clean, or even cleaner, than I found them. 💗 I do unfortunately work full time, but my schedule varies throughout the week and I only work 3/7 days a week. Other than that, I’m a free woman willing to watch your fur babies for you. I am great with communication so we can always discuss availability! On the days I do work I get off at 6:30 PM and I’m free for the rest of the night for drop-in’s, walks, or an overnight stay! I will always respect your wishes in your home. I’ve always been a respectful and trustworthy person, I clean up after myself (and any fur babies), I’ll even leave the place better than I found it. When I’m caring for your pet, all my focus is on them and their needs, I keep a tight ship around here! I love the idea of pet sitting in your pets home because it keeps them comfortable in their own safe environment and stick to the routines that they are used to.

About: We have always had pets in the house, so taking care of them like they are family comes naturally. I currently have dogs, so understand the needs that come with ownership and will respect you and your animals the same way. I have taken care of dogs, cats, birds, spiders, rabbits, fish, and reptiles, so whatever your friend, I can help. I have reasonable rates and stay in your home so the animals don't have to get accustomed to a new environment, lessening the stress on them. I have cared for elder dogs and puppies alike so will clean up after them as required. If all you need is a walker, I can help, too. I have to walk my dogs a good distance to keep them calm (2+ miles), so I have sturdy shoes and am prepared to use them. I hope I can be of assistance to you! I do currently have a full time job and I may have errands to run or meet someone for dinner, but the majority of my time can be spent taking care of and just being with your pets, if that is required. I do prefer to stay in the house if you are a drive to cut down on the back and forth. But I normally bring my own food and clean as I go. My goal is to leave the place so you never knew I was there, except that your pet is well taken care of. I like to meet with the animals first to make sure we are compatible. After that, I am there to keep your routines in tact. If your dog needs walked or fed at specific times, I'm on it. If you cat requires 10 minutes of chin scratches before bed, I got you. If you need to grab a delivery that happens while I'm there, absolutely. I want you to feel 100% confident your pet and house will be cared for. If I'm just walking for you and you have been working on a skull from your dog, let me know. I've put both my dogs through training and understand the importance of consistency.

We had an amazing experience with our Rover sitter! From the beginning, communication was excellent and we felt completely comfortable leaving our pets in their care. We received updates,and could tell our pets were happy, relaxed, and very well loved while we were away. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were being treated like family. We came home to happy pets and everything was perfect. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable!

About: I have been caring for stray animals daily, especially stray cats that I regularly feed and look after. Over time, I’ve developed strong bonds with them through patience, trust, and consistency, and I’ve learned to understand their individual personalities and needs. I also grew up with a lot of animals in my surrounding which is how I became to love them and care for them. I’m working 9-5 but I have plenty of free time outside of work! I’m available after 5 PM on Thursdays and Fridays, and I’m completely flexible and available anytime on weekends. I’d be happy to work around your schedule and give your pets the time and attention they deserve! 🐾 I provide care in the client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, playtime, walks, and plenty of attention and affection. I also make sure their space stays clean and safe, and I’m happy to send updates and pictures so you can feel reassured while you’re away. Most importantly, I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and needs so they feel comfortable and cared for.

Bree is so much more than a dog sitter. Had big storms come through that knocked tree limbs all over the place, including my roof. Bree took a ton of pics and shared with me so I could accurately speak with my insurance. Aside from that, my pups were very well taken care of. Bree kept me updated on when she was leaving, how the dogs were doing, play time, and sent a TON of pictures throughout the week that were sent to me. My dogs seemed very happy and were worn out when I got home. I will definitely be booking with Bree again as travel needs arise for work. If youre reading reviews on Rover and not sure how to start this process (like i was), start with Bree. She came to my house for a couple hours prior to the requested dates, met the pups and asked a ton of questions about their personalities. I honestly probably overdid it with the details, but it honestly feels like she remembered the details. Stop scrolling through the reviews and reach out to Bree. 10/10 will book again.

We had a meet and greet and that went very very well. We found we had a lot of things in common and our dog Sammy really warmed up to them quickly. We just had a good vibe that they were gonna take really great care of our house and our fur baby.! They also provided excellent communication throughout each day by sending texts, pictures and videos! And when we arrived home, the house was immaculate. Everything looked so nice and welcoming after being gone for a whole week. We would highly recommend them and we’ll definitely use them again. Thank you both so much for your care with Sammy. 🥰🥰🥰

About: I have owned and taken care of a lot of dogs in the past 10 years. Friends, family and neighbors have trusted that I take great care of their fur babies! I offer overnight care in your home as well as walking and drop-ins! I am a self employed hair stylist so I can pretty easily modify my schedule to accommodate you and your dogs personal needs! I work 4-5 days a week so I am looking for something to do in my free time. I always prefer to have a run-down on how you take care of your dog and understand your personal routine with the dog so that I can mimic that to the best of my ability.

About: Local educator that would love to take care of your fur babies! I have lived with a cat almost all of my life. I have taken care of friend’s pets and other teacher’s pets for the last 5 years. I do drop ins, walks, bathroom breaks, and overnight stays. As a school teacher, I’m unavailable during the school day from 8 AM–4 PM Monday through Friday. I’m available in the evenings and have open availability throughout the weekends, giving me plenty of time to provide your pet with attention, walks, playtime, and care. I focus on providing reliable, attentive care in your pet’s familiar home environment. I’ll follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine while making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, bathroom breaks, and companionship. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority.

About: I've grown up with animals throughout my life and currently am going to school for psychology while working as a Vet Tech. I have been dog-sitting, cat-sitting, house sitting, play times, and dog-walking for the past 12 years for neighbors and family, as well as people from my mom's work and their neighbors. I have trained my dogs I currently have and have been through the puppy stages multiple times. For the time being I am available all day everyday for whatever you may need whether that be mid day walks or just a playtime visit I don't provide services in my own home due to my apartment’s dog policy but I will gladly go to your home so your animals are still having someone play with them and give them love.

FAQs for House Sitting - Woodburn

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Woodburn on Rover is $34.97 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 225 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Woodburn. 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 Woodburn 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 Woodburn 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 Woodburn 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 Woodburn. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
