About: I have been a dog owner for over 50 years and understand first hand the importance and peace -of -mind that comes from having a trusted provider care for my pet when I am working or on vacation. I am an active senior and love having a dog to walk and for just plain old companionship. I have a Havanese/Shih Tzu (23 pounds) who is very sweet and good with other dogs. He likes to play and is even willing to share his bed with visiting dogs. Since I am retired I have a flexible schedule and live near a large city lake with a walking path. And if your dog has special needs I am certainly able and willing to accommodate. Please feel free to contact me with specific questions or concerns.

Stephanie did great with my Phoebe and on such short notice! Obviously she put Phoebe at ease because Phoebe got her favorite toy for Stephanie and wanted to play.

About: For my first birthday, my parents' landlord gave them a puppy to give to me as a present. Since then, I've rarely been without at least one dog or cat companion. I've cared for dozens of pets for friends and family over the years: dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and even the occasional reptile. I'm ready to give your pet the care and attention they deserve! I’m retired, so I have plenty of time to devote to your pet! I’m available both weekdays and weekends. Morning, afternoon, or evening, whatever works best for you and your pet! I have tons of experience with dogs and cats and can follow any directions and honor any requests you have so that you can feel certain your pet is getting safe, loving, and quality care.

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember — I’ve been caring for pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities since I was a kid. From energetic puppies learning the ropes to sweet senior dogs needing patience and extra care, I understand that every dog is unique and deserves personalized love and attention. I’ve been incredibly blessed to grow up with many dogs throughout my life, which has given me hands-on experience with different temperaments, routines, and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or a calm and comforting environment, I focus on making them feel safe, happy, and at home while you’re away. Your dog will be treated like family — because that’s exactly what they are to me. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I intentionally make time for walks, play, and attentive care. I maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable drop-ins, walks, feeding, and companionship while making sure each dog gets the attention, exercise, and consistency they deserve throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow feeding schedules, routines, and any special instructions you provide to keep your dog feeling secure and stress-free. I create a calm, loving environment, monitor behavior closely, and ensure pets are always supervised, safe on walks, and treated with patience, respect, and genuine care — just like family.

About: In addition to growing up on a farm with dogs and many animals, I have had many years of experience not only watching but working with all kinds of animals. I worked at a doggy daycare and boarding facility for 2 years and I have animal sat (dogs, puppies, cats, farm animals, etc) for family and friends and have become their go to sitter! As a student during the summer, I have an open schedule that allows me to prioritize pet care, including walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I provide feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of attention while respecting your home and keeping you updated with photos and messages. As a pet owner myself, I understand the importance of trustworthy, loving care, and treat every pet like family.

Carolyn was a lifesaver when I needed a last minute pet sitter to stop in and let my two pups outside during some long work days. She was always on time, an excellent communicator, and my pups loved her. I definitely recommend her services!

About: I've had 2 dogs but am unable to have an animal of my own right now. I am a go-to sitter of friends and family for caring for their dogs and/or cats when they go out of town. I love taking care of animals! I'm currently working a hybrid schedule of Monday and Friday's at home. I am available to watch dogs/cats the whole week, but need to be in the office Tuesday - Thursday. So, if your dog can go a little over 8 hours between potty breaks this is no issue. I do work fairly close to home, so could come home on lunch break for a quick bathroom break. I live in a townhouse with a small, mulched front yard. I have a long leash that I can let dogs out on for quick bathroom breaks (I will be outside with them to supervise) . The neighborhood has sidewalks throughout and low traffic to take dogs on longer walks. Neighborhood is very dog friendly. Applewood Nature Reserve is also a walkable distance from my house (dogs should have tick prevention if you want them walked in the park). Longer walks would be up to 2 miles depending on your pets ability.

About: I’ve been surrounded by furry friends my entire life. Growing up with both dogs and cats, I’ve learned how to care for animals of all sizes and personalities. Whether it’s a playful pup or a shy kitty, I’m passionate about making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and happy. I’m the go-to person in my circle when friends need someone reliable to care for their pets, and I take that trust seriously. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when you’re away, and I strive to treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, or quiet cuddle time, I’d love to get to know your furry family member and provide them with the care and attention they deserve. Let’s chat and see how I can help make your pet’s day brighter! Let me know if you’d like any tweaks! I currently work full time Monday-Friday from 7am-3:30pm. I occasionally work from home when I am able. Otherwise I am always home in the evenings and on weekends! I have a decently sized yard access that makes it easy for dogs to go in and out. I have extra rooms for crate training if needed!

About: I grew up with animals all throughout my life. I’ve had dogs, cats, birds, and help my mom foster for Cocos Heart and other animal rescues. I’ve worked with many different dog breeds through my past job at PetSuites and through pet sitting. BACK FOR THE SUMMER!! I’m currently working part time at two jobs during the week but will be able to make check-ins in between shifts. The weekends I’m available anytime for check-ins or walks! I try to provide more than just the basic needs to my pets and any pet I care for. This includes feeding and medications, walking, playing, and hanging out with the pets to keep them company. I’m relatively active so I can take the pets for longer walks and runs if requested. I always put the pet first and make sure they feel safe and comfortable with my presence.

About: I’ve taken care of my parents dogs, they have always had two or three at a time, neighbors, friends, and also my chiropractors dogs for many years. I’ve cared for little dogs like chihuahuas as well as big dogs like Great Danes and mastiffs. I also have experience caring for senior pups that my parents and chiropractor had in the past. I work as a flight attendant and I’m looking to earn some extra money on the side and have the perk of playing with dogs on some of my days off. I can crate the dog if needed or keep them in a room when away or overnight. I would keep them on a leash if they like to wander and the yard is not fenced.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Woodbury

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Woodbury on Rover is $26.75 per visit (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of June 2026, there are 5,502 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Woodbury. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Woodbury stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Woodbury 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!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Woodbury with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Woodbury. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% 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.

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.
