About: I was raised with animals so they are my sweet spot. Rather you have a cuddler or a high-energy zoomer I make my space convenient for them. As a veteran and healthcare professional. I provide notes on my time with your pet no matter how big or small. The goal is for me to not only communicate that he/she is okay but to also communicate their emotional state. Rather requested or not, I provide photos so that you can view how your pet appeared throughout our time together and also see any adventures we may have taken. If you have ANY special requests to make regarding your pets potential time with me that creates a stress free environment for them and you please feel free to ask prior to or during booking. I am a Type A sitter! *while I accept dogs who are not spayed/neutered, I do not accept dogs while they are actively in heat* I am an army veteran and student who has plenty of time to be hands-on with your baby. I treat any animal care job as a clock-in job and remain dedicated during those timeslots. I live in a townhome and have a fenced in playground where animals can run free. I reserve the playground to ensure that your baby, my two (toy poodle and mini schnauzer) are the only ones there. I have walking trails all around me and utilize that as a way for exploration and exercise.

About: Hi! I’m a fun, energetic, and compassionate animal lover who treats every dog like my own. I understand that when you trust someone with your pet, you’re trusting them with family, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m dependable and attentive to each dog’s unique personality and needs. Whether your pup loves long, energetic walks or prefers a slower pace with lots of sniff breaks, I tailor every walk to keep them safe, happy, and engaged. What sets me apart is the balance of energy and responsibility. I bring positive energy to every visit, but I also prioritize safety, communication, and consistency. I’m comfortable caring for puppies still learning leash manners and senior dogs who need patience and a gentler approach. You’ll always receive updates and photos, so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. My goal is simple: happy tails, safe walks, and peace of mind for you. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby! 🐶💕 Pet care is something I truly enjoy and prioritize. I work full-time during the week, which allows me to dedicate focused time on weekends to dog walking and drop-in visits. I also offer boarding for one dog at a time, so each pup receives calm, personalized attention in a safe environment. Whether it’s weekend walks, overnight boarding, or pet sitting support, I’m committed to dependable, loving care. Your furbaby’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. As a devoted dog mom, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. I carefully follow your instructions and keep routines consistent, so your pup feels secure, relaxed, and loved. For walks and drop-ins, I use secure leashing, stay fully attentive, and remain aware of our surroundings at all times. I avoid busy or unsafe areas and adjust each walk based on your dog’s age, personality, energy level, and even the weather. Some dogs love a power walk, others love sniff breaks. I’m happy to match their vibe! For boarding, I intentionally host only one dog at a time so your furbaby receives calm, personalized attention in a clean, safe, and pet-friendly home. I provide plenty of affection, supervision, and updates (with photos!) so you always feel connected and confident. With 17 years of experience as a loving dog mom, I understand that communication, patience, and kindness matter just as much as exercise and routine. I treat every dog like family because to me, they are.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember! I grew up with pets and have been caring for animals most of my life. My family has a farm, so I’m very comfortable around all kinds of animals and understand the love, patience, and attention they deserve. I’ll treat your fur babies like family while they’re in my care! I work full-time, but I’m fortunate to have a flexible schedule and live just 5 minutes from work. This allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily routine and provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, and check-ins throughout the day. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and make sure they receive consistent, loving care while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first! I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and specific needs so they feel comfortable and cared for. I provide a clean, calm, and loving environment with plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles when they’re wanted. I’ll also keep you updated so you can have peace of mind knowing your fur baby is happy and safe while you’re away. I do have a fenced in yard. I currently do not have any pets of my own so it will be a free comfortable space for your fur babies

“Valerie was amazing with our dog, Guapo! She came by for two days, three times a day, to feed him, let him out, and spend quality time with him. She stayed as close to his regular schedule as possible, which we really appreciated because routine is important for Guapo. She was incredibly patient with him, especially since he’s very suspicious of new people and tends to bark until he realizes they’re friendly. Valerie even took the time to come meet him before her scheduled visits so he could get a little more comfortable with her. When we got home, Guapo was just as happy and content as when we left, which gave us so much peace of mind. Even with my landlord being a bit particular about parking, Valerie maintained excellent communication throughout the entire stay and handled everything professionally. We truly appreciate the care and attention she gave Guapo. We would absolutely book Valerie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter!”

Even though it was last minute, she was on time for when Kovu needed to be fed and taken out. She showed him love while we were away and even put calming music for him so he didn’t feel too lonely while we were away. Will definitely hire her again 100%!!”

About: I have a fenced in backyard for quick bathroom breaks. I have a bin full of dog toys and puzzles to keep your fur baby mentally and physically entertained. My senior dog is healthy and active which is a testament to the level of care I provide. I work from home part time so I'll keep your baby company 24/7. I'm available over the weekend and I'll be happy to board your dog the same day. I have a fenced in backyard. My small senior dog is 15 years old. I have experience with administering medication to her day and night. Finished basement is all hardwood so any accidents can be easily cleaned.

Katie was fantastic! She made my first petsitter experience much less stressful than it could have been while I traveled out of the country. She went up and beyond in taking care of my three babies, including my high-maintenance senior cat. Thorough updates were provided at every visit. I won't hesitate to book her again!

Kristin has looked after our 2 pups several times and always does an amazing job!! She goes above and beyond! One of our dogs lost his ball and was very sad, so Kristin went out of her way to get him a new ball so they could play fetch. She also left a cute card and doggie treats. These sweet gestures really show how much she cares! She is great with communication and sends so many pictures and updates. We never have to worry when we are out of town because we know our puppies are in the best hands! Thanks for everything Kristin!

We are so happy we have Emily to care for our animal kids. She is consistently on time and always updates us through messaging. We have used family and friends and they don’t spend the time time walking, feeding, giving meds and playing with our animals every time they stop by. Spending money to have Emily is worth every cent!!!! She is also just a good soul and it feels nice to pay someone who takes their job seriously.

Chelsea has been our go to doggie sitter for the past year or two. Hope absolutely loves her and I love her thorough messages. Recently I had to book a different sitter because Chelsea was traveling at the same time as me and let's just say the other sitter wasn't as thorough with her updates.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Woodhaven Downs

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Woodhaven Downs is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 per visit. 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 7,091 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Woodhaven Downs. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Woodhaven Downs. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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.

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.
