“Stacey was amazing and went above and beyond for me and my pets. She mentioned she has 3 large dogs and her experience really showed. At one point I ran out of dog food and she offered to go pick some up. She also watched over my guinea pig and took great care of him, since she has rabbits of her own. I will definitely be booking her again and again!”

About: I have experience caring for dogs through dog sitting and training. I provide a safe, caring, and comfortable environment while making sure each dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and positive interaction. I’m also experienced with basic training, including commands, leash manners, routines, and positive reinforcement. I enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel happy, secure, and well cared for while their owners are away. I have flexible availability for dog sitting throughout my daily schedule. I can work around your needs and provide care, walks, playtime, and attention while you’re at work, running errands, or away for the day. I can provide reliable and loving care for your dogs while you’re away or at work. I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, food, fresh water, and bathroom breaks while keeping them safe and comfortable. I’ll treat your pets like my own and give you peace of mind knowing they’re well cared for.

“I couldn’t be any happier with the care, attention and communication we experienced last week with Rick!!! 5 stars all the way. Our 17 year old dog is dead with declining hind leg usage and Rick’s home was the perfect place for him to explore. No steps, fenced in yard and a very caring and knowledgeable care giver. I will definitely hire Rick again! Highly recommend!”

About: Hi I’m Carlie! I have had animals my entire life, and dogs have always held a special place in my heart. My family has rescued 3 over the years and I recently rescued my own precious baby Avalon! (Although she definitely rescued me!) I have tons of experience caring for animals and it is something I’m very passionate about! I love taking my dogs to the dog park! I love going on hikes and walks with them as well! There’s also a box full of tennis balls I have stored for all the fetch we could ever play! :) I have great knowledge on feeding and caring for dogs in whatever way you may need! I’m so excited you’re reading this and I can’t wait to meet your furry babies! ❤️ I am currently offering my services from 9am until around 4pm each day! I am open to working around schedules as well if that is needed! I promise to always abide and respect all the rules and wishes you may have for your pets while in my care! I would never put your babies in harms way!

About: I have always had many animals from rabbits to birds to fish, and of course dogs. I have had dogs my whole life and love making bonds with them as well as making them feel loved and safe. I am in grad school so have school every day Monay-Friday, off on Thursday's but I am extremely flexible. I have school most days 8:30-4pm. I care for pets in my home by making sure they have access to fresh food and water, regular exercise, and a clean and safe environment. I also make time to give them attention and all the love. If caring for a pet in a client’s home, I would follow the client’s specific instructions and routines for feeding, walking, grooming, and other pet-care needs. I would also make sure the pet’s environment is safe and clean while respecting the client’s home, preferences, and routines!

“We were lucky to have found such a caring and responsible pet-sitter as Abby. She booked with us last minute when our previous sitter fell through. We were sent multiple pictures and videos throughout our trip proving that Ozzy clearly adores her, and so do we! Her dedication to our pets well-being is truly commendable. I will definitely book her again in the future.”

About: Hey, my name is Bailey and I love working with animals. I grew up on a farm with horses, goats, chickens, but most importantly cats and dogs. When I was a kid my grandparents bred puppies and I would help take care of them. Moving forward anytime someone needed help feeding and walking their dogs I volunteered. I have dog sat many times and had dogs come to my house a few times as well. I have one dog myself, a pit mix named Goofy. I work part-time 5 days a week. I'm available for overnight stays and can walk and feed your pet both before and after work. I consider myself very active and will be happy to take your dogs on plenty of walks. I can walk around your neighborhood or take a quick trip to a nearby park. I love playing with dogs and cats, especially laser and fetch. I love fetch. I have a special needs cat and I make my own food and treats for my dog so if your animal has any dietary or medical requirements I will happily rise to the occasion.

“Heaven was amazing with our little Totopo! Not only was she super responsive to texts and messages prior to booking her for dog sitting, she kept sending us pictures and videos of our dog while we were away, which kept us in the loop of how our pup was doing. Our dog totally loved her from the start! And she was great with him, treated him awesome, gave him treats, even taught him some new tricks. She really went above and beyond. It was our first booking with here but I am sure it will not be our last!”

About: I don’t just love dogs because they’re cute. I love them for who they are. Their loyalty, their innocence, their unconditional love, and the way they can make you feel loved without ever saying a single word. They don’t care what you look like, how much money you have, what kind of day you’ve had, or whether you have your life together. They just want to love you, be near you, and be part of your world. 🐾 I’m currently working full time, free during the week to be around dogs, care for them & be their extra love. I love all dogs ♥️ Fenced in yard, I have 2 dogs whom I love everyday of my life. They’ll always be a part of my life, everyday! My life is just about dogs

About: 🐾 **22 Years of Professional Pet Care — A Lifetime of Love for Animals!** ❤️ Hi, I'm Whitney! Animals aren't just my passion; they've been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. When you leave your pets in my care, you're getting more than a pet sitter. You're getting 22 years of professional experience, hands-on animal knowledge, and a heart that truly belongs to animals! I've been a **professional pet groomer for 22 years**, working with both dogs and cats. My experience goes well beyond grooming. I've rescued cats, dogs, horses, and parrots, and have dedicated so much of my life to helping animals in need. I've also professionally shown dogs in AKC conformation shows and have extensive training experience, from puppy kindergarten all the way through advanced obedience. Over the years, I've also had the opportunity to work alongside several veterinarians, further expanding my knowledge and understanding of animal care. From tiny puppies and playful kittens to senior pets, special personalities, and animals who need a little extra patience and TLC, I understand that every animal is unique and deserves individualized care. I believe pets are FAMILY, not just pets. I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own, with love, patience, respect, and attention to their individual needs. Whether it's walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, keeping routines, or simply making sure your fur baby feels safe and loved while you're away, you can feel confident knowing they're in experienced hands. 🐶 **22 years of professional grooming experience.** 🐱 **Experience with both cats and dogs.** 🐴 **Rescue experience with cats, dogs, horses, and parrots.** 🏆 **Professional AKC dog show experience.** 🎓 **Dog training experience from puppy kindergarten through advanced obedience.** ❤️ **Experience working alongside veterinary professionals.** **My philosophy is simple: Your pets deserve the very best, and that's exactly the care I strive to give.** Your babies aren't just another booking on my calendar. They're family, and I'll treat them that way! 🐾💕 ### 🐾 My Schedule & Availability — Flexible Care for Your Fur Babies! Along with my passion for animals, I'm also a professional wedding photographer. The great thing about my photography schedule is that it allows me plenty of flexibility to dedicate time to caring for your pets! I have lots of availability during the weekdays, making it easier to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, daytime companionship, and pet-sitting needs. Wedding season tends to be busier for me, but things slow down considerably during the off-season, particularly **November through March**, when I have even more flexibility and availability to give your pets extra attention. I love being able to use that flexibility to spend quality time with animals rather than simply stopping by to check a box. Your pets deserve attention, affection, exercise, and companionship, and I enjoy making sure they get all of that! I do occasionally have weddings or photography commitments, so I'll always communicate my availability clearly and work with you to find a schedule that works best for everyone. **Whether you need weekday help, occasional care, or extra coverage during the winter months, I'd love to help make life easier for you and your pets!** ❤️🐾 Im here for the holidays! ### ❤️ Safety, Trust & Loving Care — Your Pets Are Family! Your pet's safety and well-being will ALWAYS be my top priority. I understand that trusting someone with your beloved fur babies is a big deal. As a pet owner and animal-care professional with 22 years of experience, I take that responsibility very seriously. My background as a professional groomer, AKC dog show exhibitor, obedience training participant and instructor, animal rescuer, and my experience working alongside veterinarians have given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, handling, and individual care needs. I believe in taking the time to understand each pet's personality, routines, boundaries, and special needs. Whether your pet is outgoing and energetic, shy and timid, elderly, or requires a little extra patience, I will always approach them with kindness, understanding, and respect. **Your pet's safety is never something I take shortcuts with.** 🐾 I carefully follow feeding instructions, medications, and established routines. 🐾 I take precautions with doors, gates, leashes, collars, and surroundings to help prevent escapes or accidents. 🐾 I pay close attention to behavior and watch for anything unusual or concerning. 🐾 I respect your instructions and your pet's individual comfort level. 🐾 I believe communication is essential and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away. 🐾 In the event of an emergency, I will contact you promptly and follow your designated veterinary and emergency-care instructions. I know your pets aren't just animals you own. They're family members, best friends, and little pieces of your heart. **When they're with me, they will be treated with the same love, protection, patience, and attention I'd want someone to give my own animals.** You can enjoy your time away knowing your babies are being cared for by someone whose life has been dedicated to animals. ❤️🐶🐱

About: I’ve cared for my own dog for 10 years, which taught me a lot about daily pet responsibilities and the bond animals form with us. For the past two years, I’ve also volunteered at the Humane Society, where I walk dogs, clean kennels, and help care for cats. This hands-on experience has helped me become confident handling a variety of animal temperaments and needs. I bring patience, attentiveness, and a real love for animals to every interaction. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule around the pets in my care to ensure they receive consistent attention, exercise, and affection. I start my mornings with feeding and walking, followed by playtime or any special care needed throughout the day. Evenings are dedicated to another walk, meals, and winding down with cuddles or calm time. I maintain a flexible schedule to meet each pet’s unique needs. I prioritize safety by pet-proofing my environment, removing any harmful items, and creating a calm and clean space. I follow the pet parent’s instructions carefully and ensure routines are maintained. Whether in my home or theirs, I monitor pets closely, provide positive reinforcement, and keep them comfortable with familiar items like their toys or bedding. I also keep emergency contacts and a vet plan ready at all times.

FAQs for House Sitting - Woodcrest

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 961 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.

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 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:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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.
