“Whitney took amazing care of our two dogs while we were out of town! She treated them like they were her own and gave us so much peace of mind, especially with leaving our puppy for the first time! Will absolutely be rebooking Whitney for future stays!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole entire life, I’ve always chosen to interact with the pets at someone’s house then them lol ,being around animals is a highlight to my day . I love staying active and walking your fur baby will be an amazing way for you and I. I’m always available in the mornings, some nights I work at my part-time job. But I am off some nights as well! Walking would work great in the mornings, and check ins would work morning or night. Respect is my number one. Being respectful when check-in will be the key to making your animal and you happy! I will keep my promise with always respecting wishes and needs of your animal.
“Emily was amazing! She sent pics daily, even though I didn’t always have a chance to reply. Her updates were great and super adorable. When I came home the house was clean (I think cleaner than I left it. ♥️) Litter boxes were clean too. Excited to have her back to hang with my crew. 😊”
“Kimberly was awesome with our pups. They loved her and she was great at communicating with us while we were away. She sent updates and photos which eased the anxiety of leaving them home. We recommend Kimberly to anyone needing a pet sitter and won’t hesitate to book her again!”
“B saved our vacation! We booked her last minute after seeing all of her positive reviews. She did not let us down and she is worth way more than she charges! She sent us pictures of our 5 pets the whole weekend we were away. Can’t thank her enough!”
“They are absolutely phenomenal! Very responsive to messages and coordination of the meet and greet to start. Wonderful in the meet and greet with the dogs(3). We knew leaving them for the weekend would be just fine. We received so many photos of them playing and enjoying the dog vacation. Arriving back to our house it was clean and tidy. The same way we had left it. I’d recommend Rey and Jonathan to everyone.”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a kid, from playful puppies to senior adults needing extra patience. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to feed, walk, and play with their dogs while they're away, and I treat every pet like my own. I'm attentive to routines, quick to notice if something's off, and always up for extra cuddle time. Whether your dog needs a quiet homebody sitter or an energetic playmate, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for the whole time you're gone. I have flexible availability. I'm happy to work around your dog's routine, whether that's daily walks, feeding times, or overnight stays. Pet care is my main focus currently. Since I care for pets in your home rather than mine, I make it a priority to keep your dog's routine as normal as possible, sticking to their regular feeding schedule, walk times, and any specific instructions you leave me. I always double check doors and gates are secure, keep an eye out for anything that could be a hazard, and treat your home with the same respect and care I'd want for my own.
About: I treat every dog in my care like my own. As a small business owner, I know how much reliability matters. I show up on time, keep you updated with photos and messages, and follow your routine exactly so your pup stays comfortable while you're away. Puppies: I'm patient with young pups and keep up with potty training, crate routines, and basic commands like sit and stay. Senior dogs: I'm comfortable with slower walks, giving medications, and extra attention. Extras: Fenced yard / I work from home so your dog is rarely alone / experience with large breeds / comfortable with anxious or shy dogs. Your dog won't just be watched. They'll be loved! I’m pretty flexible with my schedule at the moment. I have a small dog that is in his older years and home majority of the day. In my home (boarding/daycare): Your dog gets a calm, safe space with [a fenced yard / a cozy spot to rest]. I keep them on their normal feeding, walk, and bedtime schedule, and they're never left alone for long. [I only take one family's dogs at a time so every pup gets my full attention.

From playful adventures to cozy couch cuddles, I’m so excited to give your dog the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. 🤍 I am willing to meet YOUR needs and I will always do my best to accommodate.

“I recently had an unbelievable experience with Jenni. The communication and updates from the sitter were exceptional. She kept me informed about my dog’s well-being throughout the entire stay, sending regular messages and even photos to put my mind at ease. It was such a relief to know my furry friend was in good hands, and I highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a trustworthy and communicative dog sitter.”

About: Always willing to take care of your baby, as if they were mine. I've taken care of multiple puppies and kittens while I was Always willing to take care of your baby, as if they were mine. I've taken care of multiple puppies and kittens while I was growing up. Available whenever! I can stop by during the week or on the weekend at most times. I will be working full time starting in August, but am very flexible! I have 2 cats in my home, have lots of treats and toys. Fenced backyard for any puppies or dogs. Quiet neighborhood and plenty of walkable area
About: I’ve been around big dogs my whole life and I’ve never been scared of them, all I ask is that your pet is trained (but if worse comes to worse I can keep a treat nearby to deescalate the scene). I currently help care for my dog Tiger when I’m at my dad’s and he’s well adapt in the world of tricks (one of his favorites being roll over) ! I work part-time right now so I have plenty of time to make sure your baby has a wonderful day! All I ask is that you give me some notice to ensure that I’m off for the day you’re requesting. 🙂 I do not pet sit in my own home, my dog does fine with the smell of others but I’m not sure of how he’d react to just meeting another dog at random. However, within the location you choose I’ll follow all of your guidelines and if you let me I’ll use positive reinforcement with treats to make sure they don’t go past whatever your personal border is for them. I feed my pets 2-3 times a day, with the time in the middle being more of a snack, less hefty than the other two for moderation, to avoid an unhealthy weight. Tiger gets let out to potty whenever he wants, there isn’t really a set time but he definitely gets let out before bed for at least 30mins to make sure he can go to sleep without feeling the need to potty throughout the night. This is just my personal care and I’m more than welcome to changing this routine for your pet, I’m offering a service and I’d like to make sure your’s and your pets’ needs are fulfilled.

“Taylor was nothing short of INCREDIBLE! Finding someone you can truly trust with your fur babies is though, and Taylor made us feel so very at peace with her taking care of them! From many photos of them every time she visited, to constant comprehensive updates of how they were doing; we never once felt like we were out of the loop. Taylor followed all our directions and was incredibly responsive to all our messages and requests. This gave us so much peace of mind! She met us before our set up sitting request to meet everybody. She also came to watch after them when our travel plans got delayed. Taylor went above and beyond, and completely exceeded our expectations!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Woodfield
I always get very nervous when I leave my cats, so having Margaret stay with them while I was away for couple days gave me so much peace of mind! She was reliable, attentive, and incredibly sweet and patient with them, followed all my instructions, and kept me updated with great reports. One of my cats takes some time to warm up to people, so seeing him cuddle with her one morning says a lot! 🥹 She also went above and beyond with other little things, like watering the plants and feeding the birds, and was very respectful of my home. I’m so grateful for the care she gave them and would absolutely trust her with my cats again!
I contacted Destiny to house sit out husky Nemy and she replied promptly to set up a meet and greet. She is so personable and made me feel at ease during the meet and greet asking all of the right questions to make sure she knew everything for our fur girls care. She communicated and sent lots of pictures throughout her stay. We will 100% be using her again! :)
Brittany went absolutely above and beyond caring for our two dogs and two cats! She provided multiple updates every day, complete with pictures, and was incredibly responsive to all of our messages. Our Beagles are especially needy, and Brittany was so patient and attentive with them, even making sure they felt safe and comforted during a severe storm. It gave our family so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. We would highly recommend Brittany to anyone looking for an exceptional, trustworthy, and compassionate pet sitter! We will definitely be using her again!
Aerianna clearly has a special way with animals, and I can't recommend her enough! She sent frequent updates, photos, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My dogs are usually professional couch potatoes, but they were all smiles with her around. I think they might've been a little disappointed when I came home.
I’m so very grateful to Rena and her ability to come do some housesitting and dog playing last minute due to a medical emergency!! She sent me so many pictures and the boys had so much fun. They were so happy and relaxed! It really made my heart happy to know that I was able to focus my attention on the medical issue and know that my pups were in good hands
Nicole was such an amazing pet sitter! We got 3-4 updates a day full of pictures and updates on how our babies were doing! In every picture the dogs were smiling and seemed to love her company! She also kept the house and everything so tidy and even got our mail for us! Definitely recommend booking her!!!

The average cost of House Sitting in Woodfield is $43 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $104 per night.

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 Woodfield 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 Woodfield 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 Woodfield 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
