“Emily was great. Not only did she take very good care of our precious dog Pebbles, our neighbors and local business employees committed about the good job Emily did taking care and walking Pebbles. Emily stayed at our home for two weeks while we were out of the country. She sent us daily photos and updates. My wife and I would highly recommend Emily to take care of your pets.”

“Genelle took great care of our pups and sent so many pictures! I appreciated the updates and could see that our dogs were happy and having fun. We will definitely reach out to her for sitting needs in the future!”
“Malia did such a great job taking care of our sweet puppy. She babysat him for a long weekend while we were out of town and they had a blast together! She provided regular updates and was super responsive. Our flight home ended up getting delayed and she even stayed a bit longer to make sure our dog had the proper care. He can’t wait to see her again. Thank you Malia!”
“Burgess took great care of my 7 year old French bulldog while I was out of the country. This dog is like my baby and needs eyedrops, facial fold cleaning and medication and everything went well.”
“Kalyn took incredible care of our animals (1 pup, 2 kitties) and gave us absolute peace of mind while we were out of town. She was incredibly communicative, asked insightful questions to make sure she was understanding each of our little floofs and their quirks, got a reluctant cat to take his meds everyday, and gave everyone plenty of snuggles. They loved her instantly and welcomed her in as part of the family. Kalyn also was a magnificent steward of our house while staying for overnights. I cannot wait to welcome her back again!”
“Adam was amazing and took great care of our girl, Bug. We have been looking for a dog sitter for over two years as our dog is dog aggressive and can be a lot to handle. Adam quickly learned to use both the e-collar and pinch collar given to us by our trainers. He sent us updates and followed our instructions to a tee. He was an amazing dog sitter and truly cares about your pets. I couldn’t thank him enough for staying with Bug. If you are skeptical about having someone watch your dog or stay in your house, Adam is a great fit and cares for your pets and possessions. We came back to a happy girl and clean apartment. Thank you, Adam!”
“Alyssia was such a great sitter for Reo! She kept me up to date every day, sent me pics of the cutest moments (which I love getting) and Reo was very happy and calm when I got home.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Woodford Green is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Woodford Green
We were so lucky to find Ashlynn for a last-minute holiday weekend booking! She was incredibly flexible and even extended her stay when our travel plans changed. All three of our dogs immediately loved her. It’s obvious she has extensive experience and she was able to adapt to each of my dogs’ unique personalities and needs with ease. She sent regular updates and photos, and made sure our puppy stayed safe and comfortable during her very first Fourth of July. Ashlynn went above and beyond, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and experienced sitter.
What a wonderful young lady! Shayna and Stella instantly bonded and it was easy to see Stella enjoyed being with her. When I came home, I'm not sure if Stella was gladder to see me or sadder to see Shayna leave. Although the stay was only for two days and one night Shayna kept me informed of their activities including pictures. I definitely will ask Shayna to care for Stella the next time I go out of town.
Megan took great care of our fur babies for a long weekend! We have senior dogs who need extra care, time, and attention and Megan was great with them. She made herself available to be home with them most of the time and did well with their medication and feeding schedule. She sent daily updates and pictures. You can tell when your dog has been stressed when you’re gone, Daisy and Frankie were chill and happy when we returned! Highly recommend Megan!
Regan was so great with Griffin! He is anxious, but she was extremely patient with him, willing to meet with us before the stay to get to know him better before watching him over night. I got daily pictures and updates, and she left our apartment as clean if not cleaner than we left it. We’ll absolutely book with Regan again!
Lili stayed with our senior dog and our cat for a long holiday weekend - she took great care of our girls including giving them their medications and getting to know their habits to make sure they were comfortable! She gave great daily updates and was quick to answer any questions we had
We cannot say enough amazing things about our pet sitter! She watched our two cats and our black lab while we were away for the weekend, and truly treated them like they were her own. She went above and beyond in every possible way—doing things she didn’t even have to—just because she genuinely cares. She was incredibly communicative the entire time, sending updates and keeping us totally at ease. Our animals absolutely adored her, and it showed! We came home to happy, relaxed pets and a spotless house. If you’re looking for someone who will love your animals just as much as you do, she’s the one. Highly, highly recommend

FAQs for House Sitting - Woodford Green
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Woodford Green on Rover is $53.28 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,155 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Woodford Green. 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 Woodford Green 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 Woodford Green 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 Woodford Green 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.

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.
