“Hannah was just wonderful! She communicated well, took excellent care of my pups and left me house exactly as expected. I would recommend her and will definitely be using her again!”
About: Hi! I’m Olivia, a lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of experience caring for pets of all kinds. I currently have two dogs and two cats of my own and have spent years helping care for pets belonging to family, friends, and neighbors. Beyond dogs and cats, I have 3 years of horse care experience and 5 years caring for reptiles, birds, fish, and other household pets. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or just needs extra patience and attention, I’ll care for them like they’re my own. I believe every pet deserves personalized care, consistency, and lots of love while their owner is away. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and also have a passion for keeping spaces clean and organized, so you can feel confident your pets and home are in great hands. This summer, I have very open availability and a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide attentive care throughout the day and week for your pets. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, overnight stays, and pet sitting in your home on most days and times. The only dates I am unavailable are June 14th–June 20th. Outside of those dates, I’m happy to work with your schedule to make sure your pets receive consistent, reliable care. In the fall, I’ll be starting my junior year at Temple University, so my availability will become more limited, but I’ll continue updating my schedule and communicating clearly about availability. I care for pets in my client’s home the same way I care for my own pets—with patience, attention, consistency, and lots of love. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment, so I do my best to stick closely to their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), litter box care, potty breaks, and any other instructions you provide. Building trust with both pets and owners is very important to me. I know every pet has a different personality and comfort level, whether they’re energetic, shy, senior, or need extra patience. I take the time to help pets feel comfortable while making sure they are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I also take pride in being respectful of your home and keeping things clean, tidy, and exactly how you left them so you can have peace of mind while you’re gone.
“Brian and Georgette were amazing! They were so patient with our annimals and treated them like they were their own! They sent us pictures everyday and took care of our house while we are gone.”
“We absolutely give Stefanie 5 stars without hesitation. She is a great communicator, she handled our high energy dog beautifully and she left the house immaculate. We highly recommend her and will engage her again if needed.”
“Stephanie was great! Her communication was exceptional. Unfortunately for Bryce our plans changed and we had to come home sooner but Stephanie was really great and we plan to use her again in the future.”
“Brooke was great! This was the first time I’ve left my dog with someone other than family. I have an anxious dog (and I’m an anxious owner) who’s very slow to warm up to new people. She was very calm and reassuring that everything will be fine. I will definitely use her again.”
“This was our first experience with Rover and we’re SO HAPPY it was with Norbert! He was thorough, communicative, and so supportive, I’ll definitely be booking him again! 5 stars! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”
“Kim is very kind and loving! She took excellent care of our elderly dog and sent updates and pictures everyday. Great communication and really eased our minds knowing our dog was being well cared for. Highly recommend and would definitely book with Kim again!”
“Paige was awesome! We highly recommend her for any pet that you may have that needs to have a sitter. She is very kind generous and loving. Our dog continues to look for her in our house after she has been gone. We will be using Paige in the future if she is available when we need a sitter. Thank you Paige”
About: I have cared for both small dogs and medium sized dogs. Have implemented special diets (Farmer's Dog) given medications through food or a treat. Assisted in foster care. Can follow leash and harness preferences and always have poop bags on the ready. I have slept beside puppies who are needy throughout the night. I am a full time K-12 art teacher so I would be available for any pet care services mostly on the weekends and few selected nights throughout the week. I would stay in the areas of the home that the pet is residing and or whichever areas that the client feels comfortable with. Example being the living room or dining room.
“Sarah was amazing. She is helpful, kind, and creative. My newly adopted dog is struggling with separation anxiety; knowing I could trust Sarah to keep him engaged and happy while I was out of the house was such a relief.”
About: I’ve taken care dogs of all kinds, with 4 years of house and dog sitting experience. The longest period I have house/dog sat is 3 weeks. Experience chauffeuring pets. Open schedule, able to work as needed. Experience with rescues. I am currently working from home with a freelance schedule, which means I have a lot of availability for your pets! As long as I have a few hours notice I should be able to make it work. I will keep your pets on a long leash but will walk them through the 1 acre property, and am happy to walk them on the neighboring 200 acres of preserved land.
“Loghan did a great job taking care of our 16 year old shih tzu. She was very kind and compassionate as well as respectful of our home. We would definitely use her services again in the future.”
“Always such a great caretaker for our animals. They have provided so much help with last minute assistance with our animals. TreDerica is incredibly communicative and has always shared so many pictures with us while we are away. Will happily book multiple times !”
“Bryn was absolutely wonderful. During both a intro phone call and meet n greet, she asked so many good questions about Maclins behaviors and likes or dislikes. He has some anxiety, so when his behavior seemed a bit off at the beginning, she checked in just to let us know how he was doing and to ask if the behaviors were normal/what we usually do. Would absolutely recommend her and would also hire her again in a heartbeat!”
“Dana is wonderful. We have two pups, one who is older. Dana treated both with love and care, and when we returned they were both sad to see him leave. It was a pleasure having Dana care for our pups.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Wooded Pond is $55

Ben was fantastic! He kept me updated on Boots' medications and sent the cutest pictures of all 3 pups throughout his stay. He also took excellent care of our home, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We would definitely use him again and highly recommend him to others!
McKayla took wonderful care of my dog Ricky and cat Sequoia. She sent lots of great pictures and kept me updated which helped me relax and enjoy my short vacation. I think Ricky fell in love with her! 😍 I am happy to provide a review for this lovely pet sitter. 🐶😺
We just had Sarah watch our two dogs in our home for the second time and she was absolutely fantastic! One of our dogs recently hurt his leg and she went above and beyond administering his medication, walking him on a leash in our backyard, and keeping a close eye on him. Would 1000% recommend Sarah!

FAQs for House Sitting - Wooded Pond
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Wooded Pond on Rover is $135 per night (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 5,838 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wooded Pond. 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 Wooded Pond 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 Wooded Pond 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 Wooded Pond 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.
