“Samantha helped me out at the last minute for two events I had on the weekend. She responded right away and came to meet my puppy before the dates I needed her to doggie sit. My puppy loved her right away! She was on time and took very good care of my pup! I would definitely hire her again!”

About: I worked at a private kennel facility and handled up to 10 large breed dogs at any given time. The breeds I'm most familiar with are Bullmastiffs, German Shepherds, Akitas, Huskeys, Terriers, and Chihuahuas. I've helped bottle raise 3 litters of puppies totaling 19 puppies, so I'm well versed in puppy care and the specific needs they have. I've also taken care of dogs with health conditions, dietary restrictions, and specific care needs. I'm the main caregiver to my aging parents and I make their lives easy enough to still remain semi-independent. My schedule is mostly open save for doctor's appointments, so I have ample time to care for other's pets. I have a crate trained dog that has free roam of the house when I'm home. I try to incorporate enrichment activities and mental stimulation if I cannot take my dog on a walk or if the weather won't allow extended yard time.

About: I’ve fostered dogs, senior dogs, cats, and kittens, and I have a dog of my own who means the world to me. 🐾 I treat every pet like my own with lots of love, patience, attention, and care. I’m comfortable with different personalities and needs, and my goal is always to make your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away ⭐ I recently graduated from college and am taking a gap year, so I have lots of free time and a pretty flexible schedule. I love having pets as part of my day and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether that’s going for walks, playing, or simply keeping them company. I have a fenced yard where pets can safely enjoy some fresh air and playtime, and I live close to a dog park for extra walks and adventures. I also have a friendly dog who loves having furry friends around. I always make sure each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort level come first, so they feel safe, happy, and cared for while they’re with me.

“This was our 2nd time having Air watch our 2 small dogs in our home. Once again, it went amazing. The dogs were clearly loved on and well taken cared while we were away. The regular updates gave us peace of mind and helped us relax on vacation knowing our pups were happy and relaxed with Air watching them. I'm a protective dog mom and I feel very safe having Air watch my dogs. I highly recommend her services.”

“We highly recommend Jose as a dog / house sitter! We hadn’t been able to travel for a while after moving to the area because we no longer had a trusted dog sitter nearby. Boarding facilities never felt like the right fit for our three huskies, so we decided to try a house sitter through Rover. After interviewing several sitters, Jose stood out as the best fit and he absolutely proved us right. Caring for three huskies is no easy task (any husky owner knows about the pulling, high energy, strong personalities, and quirks), but Jose handled them wonderfully. He sent us lots of photo updates, and it was clear from the pictures that the pups were happy and excited. He was very communicative and always on time. If he was ever running behind, he let us know right away. He followed all of our rules and suggestions, made sure the dogs got their energy out, timed their walks around the summer heat, and kept them safe and cared for. On top of that, Jose went above and beyond by watering our plants, keeping the house clean and tidy, and being flexible when we asked if he could extend his stay by an extra day at the last minute. We came home to happy pups and a spotless house. We would absolutely love to have Jose watch our dogs again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and caring sitter for their furry family members.”

About: I've cared for many types of pets since I was 14 including large and small dogs, fish, cats, and reptiles. I have two dogs of my own. Can provide references upon request. Currently taking care of pets is my full-time focus. Available 24/7 for any type of care needed including feeding schedules, playtime, walks, ect. With overnight care, I spend time playing with the pets I'm caring for as well as making sure they have everything they need. I keep the house clean and I leave the place how it was left. I may leave for brief periods to make sure things are handled at my own home.

About: I cared for my first puppy when I was 7 years old, and ever since then I've been a friend to dogs. I especially love to play, run, chase, and walk with energetic pets. Of course, providing affection, attention, and treats are a given with me. I have a very flexible schedule right now, with no other jobs at the moment and plenty of time to travel and spend quality time with your little ones! Dogs love walking in their free time, and so do I. I am especially free during the day, perfect for typical work shifts when your puppies or kitties might otherwise be alone. I always follow pet care instructions to a tee, including what spaces they may safely hang out in, what they shouldn't eat or play with, and how they act in various conditions. I want them to be safw and comfortable, always! As if nothing has changed at all from their usual beloved home.

About: I have worked with dogs of all ages from newborn to elderly. I have 15+ years of experience working specifically with Dachshunds, terriers of various breeds, and chihuahuas. I also have lots of experience working with many other breeds as well. Some examples include Germans Shepherd, Australian Shepherd, Great Piramese, Havanese, Pomeranian, Lasa Aspa, and Husky. I work part time as a courier for UberEats. So, I am able to make my own schedule whatever it needs to look like for me to give 110% of my time to the pets that I'll be sitting. I'm available all-day Monday-Sunday 24/7. :) I will only be sitting pets at the clients home. I will take instruction on caring for the pet(s) very close to heart and follow all direction as best as I can. For me, I am not just looking after a dog or cat. I am looking after a family member.

About: My love for animals started long before I began pet sitting. I grew up in a home filled with all kinds of pets ranging from cats and dogs to rabbits and aquatic creatures so caring for pets is second nature to me. Over time, I’ve specialized in caring for both cats and dogs, and I’m comfortable with everything from high energy walks to gentle senior care. Whether your pup needs a long stroll, or your cat needs a quiet feeding routine, I’m up for all tasks. I treasure each and every pet, and I am more than happy to be adaptive and attentive to their unique quirks and needs. Up until August 7th, I have fully open availability so I'm ready to accommodate last minute bookings, daily walks, or extended stays whenever you need me. After August 7th, I'll be available for any drop ins, walks, and feedings starting at 4:00 PM on weekdays. Weekends will be full availability along with overnight stays on Friday and Saturday nights. I always keep my calendar updated and organized, so feel free to reach out and I'll let you know right away if your dates work. I'm committed to being reliable and punctual, so you can count on me to show up when you and your pets need me. At the current moment, my home is not available for any services. As for any client's home, my goal is to give you complete peace of mind so you can relax while knowing your pets and your home is in capable and careful hands. Some ways I ensure safety and trust are but not limited to: - Meet and greet first: If wished for, I am more than happy to schedule a quick visit beforehand to go over routines, restrictions, and any special needs your pet or home may have. - Detail oriented: I keep a checklist for every home whether it's entry codes, alarm systems, pet quirks, or emergency contacts, etc. - Respect your space: I clean up after myself and your pet, and I will always put in the effort to leave your home looking exactly as I found it.

Amy did a great job. She got along well with Tex and did anything asked of her. She follows instructions well and asks for clarification or help if needed. I got some fun updates via photos of Tex and a funny story about how he weirdly eats his food. This is the second time I’ve used Amy to help with Tex. I’d continue to go back to her at any time. Strongly recommend.

FAQs for House Sitting - Woodcrest

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Woodcrest on Rover is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $99 per night. 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.

As of October 2026, there are 4,201 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Woodcrest. 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 Woodcrest 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 Woodcrest 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.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Woodcrest 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.

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

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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.
