“Kirsten was fantastic with Maple while we were gone for the week. She sent lots of pictures and I could tell Maple was happy when we returned. Kirsten also was incredibly helpful housesitting with water plants and feeding the fish. She also helped us navigate the AC going out during a heatwave and made sure Maple didn't get too hot.”
“Kaiden was impressive from the moment we met him at our meet and greet. He answered all questions we had prior to the stay, but then had his own questions to ensure his comfort level with our home and animals. Durning his stay, he proved wonderful daily updates on our dogs, and wasn’t hesitant to ask any question he had arise during his stay. We came home to a very clean home and happy pets! We would definitely recommend Kaiden to anyone looking for a responsible and reliable home sitter.”
“This was our first time using Rover and everything was great. From our initial meeting to finalizing care details and communication during our trip, Heather was very organized and concerned about maintaining our dogs consistent schedule and ensuring that they were safe and happy. Would definitely recommend Heather for pet care! Thank you!”
“Naomi dog sits for us and stays at our home. She is phenomenal. She cleans up after herself, takes great care of our lab, takes her to dog parks, and is well liked. I highly recommend Naomi.”
“Judi was great with our nervous pup who hates to be alone. She was a very conscientious houseguest and communicated with us regularly about how our girl was doing. We're really happy we booked her.”
“Rachel was awesome! She was great at communicating and kept me well updated while I was away. My pup was happy and content in her care. She was super flexible with my last minute scheduling. She did an awesome job.”
“Camille and Jordan were fantastic with our house and animals (elderly dog, cat and rabbit)! They were prompt in responding and making sure they had the information needed to take the best care of our animals. They were on time and communicated with us as needed. Our animals are our babies and they seemed perfectly comfortable and happy with Camille and Jordan so we will definitely be booking again!”
“Bailey sat my furry monsters for an extended stay and it’s like I wasn’t even gone! I received frequent updates and check ins and she even took Badger to see his friends at the store next door.”
“Sarah was PERFECT! Our dog can be very shy with new people and she moved at her pace and made her feel comfortable. Within a few hours they were best friends! She sent lots of pictures and communicated throughout the weekend. Additionally, Sarah went above and beyond to leave the apartment clean. You would have never known she was even there! We would absolutely book Sarah again and can’t thank her enough!”
“Christine was very good with our 2 dogs and cat. While staying in our home, she left it clean and cared for it as if it were her own. Definitely will call again.”

“Lisa was great and the pets were so happy! She sent tons of pictures and updates and I knew they were being well cared for which meant I could relax and enjoy my trip. Would definitely recommend Lisa and will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: My family has had a dog that I’ve loved to take care of and spend time with since I was 8. Also I would take care of my family’s dog since friends’ dog whenever they were out of town as a kid. I’m currently back for the summer from college so I have lots of time to take care of pets both overnight and during the day. I won’t be able to take pets into my home but can go to the owners house night or day. If for any reason you don’t have a leash or dog treats or something along those lines I’ll be able to bring it.
“Emma did an AWESOME job! She kept us updated with pictures and our cat who never trusts anyone was totally content and happy with Emma and hung out with her all weekend. One of our dogs has to take medication and Emma was very professional and had all the medical stuff under control. Emma did a fantastic job and we will absolutely ask her to watch our two dogs and cat again!”
About: I’ve had dogs in my family practically my whole life and love them like people!! I’m very much a dog person and enjoy playing with them as well, they bring me joy I have all the time in the world to take care of animals!! I love to play with them and give them all the attention that they deserve I am an experienced dog owner and know what the animals need. I also respect other peoples privacy and spaces, and will treat their home as if it were my own

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Woodbury
We booked Kirsten to watch our 3 dogs (2 of which are elderly) in our home for a short trip to see how she and they would do together. Things went great! The dogs were happy and healthy when we got home. Kirsten sent us pictures of the pups each day. The house was clean when we got home. Seriously a great test run!
Katy was awesome when watching my two dogs while I was out of town. She was extremely respectful of my home and left it nice and clean. She even brought in packages and the trash bins. My pups were spoiled with attention and she sent photos and updated me daily. It allowed me to enjoy my time away knowing my pups were in great hands! The pups keep going to the garage to see if the sound is her coming back…I think they miss her. :)
We had such a great experience with our in-home pet sitter, Heather! She was incredibly communicative from start to finish and asked lots of thoughtful questions to make sure she understood exactly how to care for both our home and Louie. It was clear that she genuinely wanted to keep his routine consistent and make sure he was comfortable while we were away. She was attentive, responsible, and went above and beyond what we expected. We came home to a happy Louie and a well-cared-for home, which gave us so much peace of mind. She truly exceeded our expectations, and we would absolutely trust her to care for Louie again!
We had such a wonderful experience with Naomi! She took amazing care of our dog, Milo, while we were away and gave us complete peace of mind. She was attentive, reliable, and clearly cared about making sure he was happy and comfortable. We received regular updates, which meant so much to us, and it was obvious that Milo was in great hands. She was truly a lifesaver, and we are so grateful for everything she did. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pet. Thank you for taking such great care of Milo!
Vikki was a wonderful home and pet sitter, and great communicator. She took excellent care of our dogs, cat, and chickens for a long weekend. She left our home better than she found it, and was accommodating with scheduling to make sure we made it home with no delays. We hope to welcome her back, and highly recommend her!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Woodbury on Rover is $48.84 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 3,388 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Woodbury. 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 Woodbury 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 Woodbury 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 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!
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.

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.
