“Megan was absolutely wonderful!!! She watched our kids during our wedding weekend and totally kept us stress free with sending updates and checking in, without us needing to ask. Would definitely book her again!! THANK YOU FROM THE FRYS!!!”
“Once again, Dylan was great with our dog and cat. Our dog has a sensitive stomach sometimes and he kept us up to date and was willing to change up the usual routine when our dog decided to have an upset stomach. He’s wonderful and we appreciate him so much!”
“Emily was wonderful with my pug puppy, Peaches! She watched her for the weekend, and I felt at ease knowing she was in great hands. Emily was communicative, prompt, and kept me updated with messages and photos. I highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog sitter. Would definitely book again!”
“Jennifer was our first Rover experience and it was absolutely great! The communication was great, she sent pics, and the house was in the same order when we got back the next day! I would highly recommend and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“My husband and I just got home from a 5 day trip, and our 2 dogs and 1 cat look as happy as can be! Erica took wonderful care of our fur-babies and our house. She stayed overnight and spent lots of quality time with the animals. She communicated frequently and sent pictures. I can’t wait to use her services again!”
“Annah and Meara were truly so great with our two girls! They stayed with them for 11 nights, and we felt so at ease, got lots of photos and updates, and could tell Pepper and Dot felt very cared for! And as a plus, they took excellent care of our place. Pepper and Dot can be shy but they immediately loved both Annah and Meara right away! We are so happy!”
“Cory was very communicative and kept me up to date with their daily activities. We had a minor pet illness that happened and Cory made sure we went to the right vet and got the treatment we needed. She got me in touch with the vets and made sure I was able to make the best decision possible. Now the pets are happy, healthy, and back to being goofy.”
“I always appreciate the care and effort that goes into taking care of my pups! Thank you Jahcarre and Morgan for loving on Koko and Yuki while I was away! As always, I’m much appreciative and look forward to the next opportunity! Take care, Danielle”
“Antoinette was exceptional! We recently learned that our dog has a heart condition and we were worried to leave him alone for the weekend. Antoinette communicated with us very regularly, giving updates on when he ate, took his medication and what he was up to throughout the day. She genuinely seemed to care about him, even though they had just met. She went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable leaving him in her care and she left our home in immaculate condition. I highly recommend Antoinette to anyone looking for pet care; we absolutely would book again.”
“Emily was extremely professional, attentive, and caring with my cats while she house sat for me over the weekend during my trip to Maine. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing all four of my cats were accounted for, fed, and cared for, and I really appreciated the check-in photos and updates throughout the weekend. She let me know when they had breakfast, when she was heading out for the night, and kept their routine consistent while I was away. Emily was kind, friendly, and wonderful with my animals. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter — she did an amazing job!”
“James has dog sat for us multiple times now! He sends frequent updates about how the dogs are doing and makes sure our home is well taken care of. We are confident our dogs are happy and cared for when James is with them and will continue to work with him whenever possible!”
“Alise is the best! I came home from two weeks vacation to two very happy puppies. My family enjoyed the daily updates and photos. Alise was fantastic to work with and will recommend her to all my friends looking for a pet sitter. Very happy with her thoughtful communication throughout the process. Thanks, Alise!!”
“Danielle was amazing! She watched my 3 month old pup and 1 year old shepherd/chow mix and they both loved her! She sent many updates about how they were doing! I will definitely be booking her again!”
“Elisa kept Big Daddy (and our house) well cared for during our week long trip. Big D was super chill upon our return, always a sign that he got plenty of attention and walks while we were away. We look forward to booking with her again soon!”
About: I’ve recently started pet sitting for friends and family and found it very rewarding. At home I am use to looking after my dog Remy who is an 90 pound poodle mix along with my cat Mia. They both are a handful but they are members of the family that have prepared me for looking after others. I am currently attending graduate school and am looking to start work near my home. I am always looking for opportunities to pay my way while helping others. I will work to make time in my schedule to accommodate yours! I always try and be friendly and patient. At home my dog Remy takes medication nightly while also having quiet the personality. His boisterous nature can be hard to rein in but when he is given his time he settles.
“Zana was wonderful with my Lulu and Solo (senior Yorkie and adolescent cat). She got them to warm up to her quickly and she kept them and my home in good order for an entire week. I appreciated the regular check-ins and photos during my time away. AND she was a real trooper despite a couple of unfortunate incidents in the neighborhood with some wanna be car thieves. I would highly recommend Zana!! She will love your fur babies as her own. And she’s very patient with a somewhat anxious pet owner.”
“This was our first time using this service. Melanie was excellent and made us feel very comfortable leaving Hugo in her care. She made sure to keep us updated everyday. So many cute pictures that just reassured us he was ok and happy. We will definitely be requesting her services again!”
“Charlize took wonderful care of our dog, Theo! She was very responsive and gave so many updates on him during our trip. She loved Theo and he definitely loved her. We will definitely contact her again for pet care in the future!”

Kemmesha was great with my two kitties! I’m always nervous leaving them with someone new but she made me feel very comfortable, gave timely responses and helped ease my anxiety. I will definitely love to work with her again and will highly recommend her for your pets needs!
My pup can be anxious, especially when I’m away. However, he was so comfortable with Megan. He even slept in the guest room with her one night! Shes so kind and professional, sent plenty of photos, and kept me updated on him and their walks. Will definitely rebook in the future!
Rubi met my cat Finn twice before taking him into her care for just over two weeks. She was very communicative and I could tell they bonded instantly. Any time I was worried while I was away, Rubi was quick to send photos and updates of Finn that put me at ease. Rubi is the only person I'll trust with Finn’s care going forward! 😊
Jamie was awesome! She stayed in our home to pet sit while we were out of town for a few days, and it worked really well. She is enthusiastic and her love for animals is obvious. Our animals look calm and happy and she left everything neat as a pin. She is also super responsive with messaging. I definitely recommend her to take care of your fur babies!
This is the second time I used Gabrielle and she was excellent again. She took great care of my golden - she was so loving to her and handled all her needs. She left my home is better condition than she found it, lol. Without being asked, the houseplants were watered, she took the trash out, cleaned the dog bowls and vaccuumed. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her if you need a great pet sitter!
Elizabeth took great care of our two Germans shepherds, two gerbils, and one hamster, while we were on vacation. We came home to very happy pets and a clean home. Elizabeth has a very kind, warm energy and our pets instantly loved her (even our easily anxious puppy), and she took great care of our older dog with medical issues.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Woodcrest is $37 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $72 per night. On Rover, 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 November 2026, there are 7,136 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:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
