“We needed a sitter to watch our dog, Bernie, during our wedding weekend. Bernie is reactive, doesn't trust many people, and has only stayed with a select few trusted people in the past (who were all at our wedding), but he LOVES Megan. She went out of her way to understand and accommodate his reactivity, and came a few times before the day to make sure he was comfortable. We got photos throughout her stay of all the play sessions, cuddles and walks Bernie enjoyed- which assured us he was not only well taken care of, but having a great time. Megan is also an all around great human. When our original wedding was cancelled due to Hurricane Helene and we couldn't get in contact with anyone, Megan came to our house to make sure we didn't still need a sitter. I have a severe food allergy that requires we don't bring gluten in the house, and she was respectful and cognizant throughout her stay. If you need a sitter for your pet, I would 1000% recommend Megan. We will definitely be rebooking!”
“Cassandra went above and beyond and accepted the request super last minute when I was unexpectedly hospitalized. My dog, Shadow, has liver cancer and takes multiple oral meds. Cassandra did great, and my house looked amazing! I cannot thank you enough!”
“Natasha was a dream petsitter. Easy communication, positive vibes, and clearly competent with the dog/cats. She’s quick to respond, very communicative, sends tons of pictures, and responsible. I would recommend her to anybody looking to make your vacation as stress free as possible. Thank you Natasha!”
“Adrienne was absolutely wonderful! It was our first time using her and we cannot wait to book her again. Our three animals and home were so well taken care of while we were out of town. She was extremely communicative and it made us feel so comfortable. Our pets loved her, even our cat who typically stays to herself.”
“Jessica was wonderful with my Baby Boy Bruno! I was very apprehensive as I’ve never had a house/pet sitter prior to finding her on Rover. Bruno was very fond of her from their first meeting. I had some friends stop over while I was away to see familiar faces, and they gave me rave reviews about Jessica as well. She was timely, and gave Bruno the attention that he needed, this was the first time I have ever left him. She text me and sent me pictures and kept me updated on how he and she were doing. I would rebook her again, and recommend her to anyone looking for a great and loving pet sitter!”
“Charlotte was great and I recommend! She was able to fill in last minute and housesit/watch my two pugs over a weekend. She was responsive, helpful and trustworthy. My mind was at ease on my trip knowing that my two pups were in good hands.”
“Alice was such a joy to work with and so good with Sadie. I got pictures while I was away and multiple check-ins and updates daily. We even got a great supplement recommendation from Alice for Sadie’s joints. She’s very knowledgeable and caring. Sadie and I will welcome her back in our home to house- and pet-set any time! 10 out of 10. Highly recommend.”
“Nathan was incredible and stayed with our two difficult dogs (one senior mostly blind and a hound dog who doesn’t like new people coming inside) at our house for over a week while we were in Mexico. We can’t recommend him enough. He found out that our dogs got fleas while we were gone and bathed and shampooed them right away. He also watered all of our plants and garden and kept the place super clean. We also had a flight cancellation on our way back last minute and Nathan happened to have hand surgery that day but came over to right after to take care of them another night. We would highly recommend him and would rate him more than 5 stars if the app lets you).”
“She is awesome!! Our dogs love her on the first meet and greet. She stayed in our home and it was better then when we left it. We will definitely have her pet sit our 4 legged girls!”
“Alex was very thorough and very kind and went the extra mile for our dog Bandit. Always above and beyond what needed to be done. Bandit loved having Alex stay with him while we were on our trip.”
About: I love all dogs but I have a soft spot for stubborn rescues and puppies trying to learn new skills. I also have a well-socialized dog that can help break your dog out of its shell. I am currently working full-time but I’m available for all your dog care needs on Sunday and Monday. I only need 12 hrs notice so you don’t need to worry about your precious baby if you need to leave town unexpectedly. I care for pets in both my home and a client’s home by setting boundaries early and often using calm, confident energy. I want my dogs and the ones I care for to feel safe, protected and loved at all times.
About: As I spend my days managing a dog daycare and boarding facility, I spend all my time around dogs of all breeds and temperaments, giving you a peace of mind that I have the experience, knowledge and training to care for your pup. Rest assured that your dog will be given plenty of exercise along with enriching and engaging play time. I work full-time but typically leave work in the afternoon, and can almost always leave when needed to take care of your pup. I'm also off on weekends. At my home, I have a 9 year old mixed breed who is 50 lbs and a sweetheart. We have a large fenced in yard which is great for play time!
“Julie was amazing! She was so fantastic with our dogs and sent us updates while we were away. She was flexible with our last minute change in schedule and even offered to pick us up from the airport. When we got home the dogs were well taken care of and the house was spotless. We look forward to using her services again soon.”
“This was our first time using a dog/house sitter and it was perfect! Johnny was terrific and we can't thank him enough. We can't wait to plan another trip and know that our pups are being cared for like we care for them. Thank you! Thank you!”
“Mandolyn was great with our pup! She engaged him mentally and physically and was a trooper keeping him occupied during several days of rain. She listened, followed instructions and takes her job seriously. Will definitely use her again.”
“Ava has been very caring and patient with our anxious pup, Eola. She took pictures during house sitting that allowed my partner and I to enjoy our vacation without worrying. Ava has great communication and left the house clean and tidy. She even stripped the mattress before leaving. Thank you!”
“Nanette & Dustin are Cooper's favorite humans. They stayed at our house and his routine didn't get disrupted. They walked him, played with him, loved him just like he was their own. Can you have god parents for your dog? They even came back when we got a flat tire on our road trip home and hung out with him for a couple extra hours. ”
“Sara was great!! She stayed with my two dogs for a few days while I was out of town. She was very communicative and got some great photos, and my pups seemed very happy when I returned home.”
“Kathy was simply amazing 🤩 my Brady felt safe and very happy he got lots of hugs and kisses Kathy left my house spotless we all loved her and hopefully use her services again 😘😘😘😘😘😘”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Woodfin
Megan has pet sat several times for me. She is extremely dedicated to her 4 legged clients and dependable which is so important to me. I trust her completely, and value having peace of mind when I'm away. After she finished the pet sitting this time, someone who was working at my house said the dog was whining watching her car go down the driveway. That says it all.
Best sitter, ever. Was invited out of town last minute and needed great care for my Bull Terrier. Jessie cares for your dog as much as you do, which is so rare. Extremely knowledgeable about all animals and their needs. Very responsive, respectful, and caring. Couldn’t recommend a sitter more than Jessie. If I could rate 10 stars, I would. Leaves your home cleaner than when he arrives, too. Excellent!
We have used Jessica multiple times now and she is so great and reliable! One of my dogs needs medicine and the other dog can get a little hyper sometimes but she handles both like a true professional. She’s always sending pics and updates and we are so thankful to have found someone so reliable.
Emily was amazing with our dogs! We have a puppy and an older German shepherd, and she made sure they were well taken care of. We could not have asked for a better person to watch our pets and home while we were out of town. We will definitely be using her again! Thanks so much Emily!
Arielle is a natural! Our girl dog is usually very standoffish and barks at people when she first meets them. I was amazed to see that Frankie immediately warmed up to Arielle at the meet and greet-as if she could sense her calm energy right away. Arielle took excellent care of our dogs and our chameleon while we were in Italy. We would definitely book with her in the future.
Megan stayed with our dog and cat for two weeks and took wonderful care of them! She’s trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. We felt completely at ease knowing our pets were in good hands while we were away. We would absolutely use Megan again for future pet care and recommend her!
We’re so grateful to Diana for taking wonderful care of our rambunctious puppy in our home this past weekend! Shosh is a rescue who can be a little apprehensive around new people, but Diana’s calm, patient demeanor quickly won her over. As anxious new puppy parents leaving our girl for the first time, we especially appreciated Diana’s thoughtful updates and photos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. She was also incredibly flexible and accommodating as our plans shifted, which made the whole experience that much easier. We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience and will absolutely book Diana again!
Alice is an excellent sitter. She took the very best care of my 2 needy cats, always sending pictures and updates. I came home to a clean house, laundry done and my plants looked better than before I left. This was a 2 week sit and she went above and beyond! Highly recommend!
Incredible. Suzanne was kind courteous and prompt. We have a full house with 3 pets who needed overnight care while out of town for a little over a week. We had a meet and greet with the hand off for expectations and instructions. She sent daily updates, made special treats for our pets, handled dog walks and even took Kaz to the park! He had a great time and so did we. Highly recommend Suzanne and our pets are also looking forward to seeing her again soon! Thank you so much.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Woodfin is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $83 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 644 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Woodfin. 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 Woodfin 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 Woodfin 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 Woodfin 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 Woodfin. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
