“I was very nervous about going on vacation for five days leaving my animals, but I found Abigail on Rover and she was absolutely amazing. I’ve told my friends about her. She took very good care of my animals. I would definitely recommend her. She gave me detailed information and updates on my babies. Thank you Abigail. You are the best.”
“We couldn’t be happier with Emily's care for our Beagle, Winnie! She took care of her for five days and went above and beyond to make sure we felt at ease. Emily provided regular updates with photos, asked thoughtful questions, and made sure Winnie’s routine was followed perfectly. We also felt completely comfortable having Emily stay in our home—she was respectful, responsible, and left everything in great shape. Winnie clearly adored her, and we’ll definitely book Emily again in the future! Highly recommend!”
“Alexis is an easygoing, fun-to-be-around lady. She listens, takes notes, asks specific questions and likes dogs even when they jump up and be rude. I wish I could hire her on a weekly basis to watch my babies, even without going on vacation, haha.”
About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience in pet care, I have developed a deep and compassionate understanding of animal’s needs and behavior! I am an owner of two dogs (ages 3 and 5), and will treat your fur babies as my own. They are truly a part of the family and should be treated as such! I have experience with puppies as well as senior animals and can administer medicine, help with training, and go on walks with them! I currently work four days a week but would be available on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays to help out with your pet care needs! I am more of a home body on the weekends so I often do not have plans and would be able to care for your pets with no issues! There’s no better way to fill time than to take the best care of other’s pets! Animals mean the world to me and I aim to aid your animals in the way that you want them cared for. If they need to be crated, I can ensure that they are not in distress. If they have a special routine, I will make sure to adhere to that. I want your animal as comfortable around me as they’d be around their own family!
About: I treat each pet as if they were my own, paying close attention to their individual needs and personalities. I have experience caring for puppies, including basic training and helping them learn good habits and tricks early on. I’m also comfortable supporting senior pets, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved at all times. I love taking dogs on fun neighborhood walks or exciting dog park adventures. With me, your pet gets lots of love, and playtime. My schedule is open and flexible — I always do my best to fit you in, even with other reservations throughout the day. Weekends are also available for a little extra, and rates can always be discussed to find what works best for you! Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities! At my home, I create a clean, cozy, and pet-friendly environment where they can feel comfortable. When caring for pets in your home, I follow all your routines and special instructions to keep everything familiar and stress-free. I always keep a close eye on pets during playtime, walks, and feedings to make sure they’re safe and having fun.
“Perfect! Our sweet fur babies were cared for so wonderfully, Yi sent many updates and pictures of our 3 boys and they seemed to enjoy her company as well. This was our first time using rover and we were so glad with who we allowed in our home and around our fur babies!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was little, including my own pit bull and shih tzu. Having experience with both high energy and low energy dogs has taught me how to adjust my care to fit each pup’s needs. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and provide loving attention to their pets. Whether your dog needs active playtime or a calm, cozy companion, I’ll make sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m available throughout the day and week. This allows me to give your pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care whenever they need it. When caring for pets in their own home, I do my best to keep their routine the same so they feel comfortable and secure. I’ll make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of walks or playtime, and always have fresh water. I’ll also give them lots of love and attention, and I’m happy to send photo updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
“Aaliya was fantastic. For our initial meeting before the job, she came over and stayed and chatted with me for over an hour. I felt very comfortable around her (as did my pets), and I felt good about her staying in my home for the weekend. She was super punctual and communicative (lots of photo and video updates!), and she left my house at least as good as it was when I left, if not better. Without hesitation, I would book with Aaliya again!”
About: I’ve always taken care and had animals since I was just a little girl, I love animals and I think they are absolutely amazing, although this will be my first time dog sitting professionally I have always taken care of my parents friends animals and I take care of my roommates dogs all the time, and I have cats of my own that I take care of. I currently work 4:15am-9:15am some days, and some days I also work 4:15-12:45 but my schedule is always open since I get home early I have the whole day to take care of any animals. I do prefer to go to your house to dog/cat sit, and or to walk your pets, I am moving into an apartment complex so taking care of them in my area would be harder
“Claire was timely, professional, and a wonderful dog sitter for our 4 dogs. We booked her last minute and couldn't have been happier. She provided frequent updates and when we got home it was clear our dogs had been well loved!”
“Kimberlee was an excellent sitter for our two dogs. One of our dogs is very anxious and takes a long time to warm up to people, but she quickly warmed up to Kimberlee. Kimberlee kept our house tidy and even watered our plants. We would definitely book with Kimberlee again.”
“Words do not express how grateful I am for Temi. I was a first time Rover user, for an overnight stay for 5 days. I have two dogs that vary in temperament. We originally were simply going to board our dogs at a local pet “hotel”. These plans fell through, and we decided to give Rover a try. From the moment Temi decided to accept our overnight booking, she was VERY professional and personable. She asked all the right questions to understand how to best support our two fur babies while we were out of town. Her communication is TOP NOTCH, and she continued to update us via the APP. It felt good to get pictures and videos, which confirmed our first babies were happy and well cared for. Temi is amazing because she immediately caught on to helping our younger fur baby with improving her leash manners. In today’s society it’s not always you find someone who goes above and beyond. Temi did, and I am so appreciative that she accepted our booking. She will now be our go to for any out of town visits. Thank you 🙏🏾 so much Temi!!!”
“Natalie was absolutely amazing with our fur-babies! Very communicative and listened to everything! The animals were happy and well-fed! We are so very appreciative and will definitely rebook!”
About: My family got our first dog when I was four, but I asked and received my own dog when I was 11. I was raised on a working farm, and the inside pets included non normative pets like mice, gerbils, guinea pigs, a ferrets, multiple dogs and cats. As an adult I've had the opportunity to care for multiple reptiles and snakes (frogs, toads, hissing cockroaches, tarantula, non venomous snakes, and leopard geckos) and also increased my knowledge of chinchillas, hedgehogs and many other non standard pets. I love all animals and my greatest strength is the vast array of knowledge and eagerness to learn and research better care for all species of pets! As of right now I am a recent transplant to Georgia and my current schedule is completely open. I am looking for both one time sitting opportunities and open to new repeat clients for business hours walks, potty breaks, med checks and feedings. I will always focus on making sure your pet is as happy and comfortable as possible. I personally have one dog who loves to meet other dogs, but is also happy being left to sleep in her bed all day. She is helpful for training reactive dogs as she doesn't mind noisy dogs and doesn't react to them at all. I love taking photos of dogs in their joy, so I will continually try to go the extra mile for your fur baby.
“Aubrey was great! She provided regular updates, left the home in perfect condition and made me feel at ease knowing Theodore was cared for. I will absolutely book again!”
“Desiré took good care of my puppy she was left alone at home sadly we forgot to refill her food container plus we temporarily lost the key so she was left with no security at home. I’m thankful I was able to find her and got a response immediately and came home fed her and took her for a 4 walks! Stayed 5 hrs while we were away. Thank you so much for your service!”
About: **Pick-up Time is 24 hours from the time you drop your pet off (A 2 hour grace period will be given).** I have been watching dogs for as long as I can remember. In my 40+ years, I have always owned a dog...from large dogs to small lap dogs and even cats. Each one is treated like my own. I work from home FT, so I look forward to the company. I'm an Air Force Veteran, therefore, you can depend on me to be loyal and dependable. I can assure you that I will treat your “babies” like they were my own; not only because I’m an animal lover, but because it’s how I want my “babies” treated while I’m away. In my home, I currently have an 8lb Maltese named Snoopy that I adopted 9 years ago. It is technically my 15 y/o's son's--but I think he likes me better =) There wasn't an option to select teenager for children in the home, but my son does help me out from time to time with permission from you, of course. The great thing about me is that I am very flexible. I can usually accept last minute requests that others cannot. For the first week, when walking your dog, I do try to spend a little additional time each visit with your pets (at no additional charge) just so we both can get acclimated to one another. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets and to create a lasting friendship with both of you! Im recently retired from the Federal government, so I have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies. It also keeps me from getting bored and becoming a couch potato lol. I provide loving, reliable care by following each pet's routine, including feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and plenty of attention. I keep pets comfortable, safe, and happy while providing owners with regular updates.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Woodhaven Downs is $50

We love having Yoli come stay at our home to take care of our dog. She is conscientious and leaves our home in better condition than we left it. And best of all, she loves our dog like her own (and our dog LOVES her). I recommend Yoli to everyone! I will always ask her first if she is available.

We absolutely love, Justine! She was the epitome of professionalism, she was on time, is a great communicator, gave daily updates, extremely responsible, dependable, and trustworthy. And most importantly, my two dogs adored her! She was so sweet and patient with my quirky pups, both of our fur babies can be challenging in different ways, but Justine handled them effortlessly. We highly recommend Justine to care for your pups!

FAQs for House Sitting - Woodhaven Downs
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Woodhaven Downs on Rover is $49.95 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 4,498 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Woodhaven Downs. 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 Woodhaven Downs 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 Woodhaven Downs 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 Woodhaven Downs 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Woodhaven Downs. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
