Clare did a wonderful job dog sitting my two pups! She will be our first choice if we need a sitter in the future. She was reliable, conscientious, and both dogs fell in love with her. Thank you Clare!

Chris was amazing!! We were able to leave Remi home and know that he was being taken care of. He was accommodating at the last minute— Definitely a life saver! Will be recommending him to friends and using him for future sittings.

This was our first time having Paula stay with our dog and cat and she was great! Our pets (& home) were well-cared for and we had peace of mind being away. She walked our timid rescue dog frequently and sent lots of updates. We would definitely use her again!

About: I’ve grown up with every kind of animal; dog, cat, bird, snake…you name it I probably had it. I currently own my ESA Molly, a 3yo cat who was a pregnant foster fail (her 4 babies went to amazing homes). I have experience fostering and owning pregnant dogs and cats. I have midwifed puppies at the age of 15 alone. I then got to train those 6 puppies which was an amazing experience. I love getting to spend time with animals and I have the time to help owners who maybe can’t be with their fur babies all day. I am a full time graduate student, however weekends i have all day availability, and during the week I am available in the mornings and evenings. I don’t work so other than classes I have a lot of free time. In my own home, Molly is cared for solely by me. This would be the same for your pet. I have two female roommates (also animal lovers) who have their own space in our apartment. Molly is allowed free roam including the balcony, however only with MY supervision on the balcony. With foster dogs we’ve had, they were also allowed on the balcony, as we are on the second floor with a 4.5ft railing. Our complex has a completely fenced in large grass area for dogs in between the buildings where we take our fosters out to play. In your home, it is up to you how I care for your animals. I’m willing to do sidewalk walks as well as go to dog parks. I have no issue visiting your pet at your home to take them just to the backyard or on a 2 mile walk.

I can’t recommend Katelyn enough. She took such great care of my dog and followed all of his rules and needs. Normally he gets very anxious when I leave and won’t eat much or go potty (poop). but with Katelyn that wasn’t a problem at all. He felt comfortable right away and it was clear when I got home that he had completely fallen in love with her. He ate a lot yay ! Her flexible schedule made it easy for her to let him out every 4 to 6 hours, which was a huge help. She also communicated clearly and often, sending lots of photos and updates that gave me peace of mind. On top of that, she gave him all the cuddles and attention he loves, and he was happy and relaxed when I returned. Katelyn is amazing, and I’ll definitely be booking her again.

Timia was great to our pups while we were away! She was a joy to get to meet beforehand. She took her time letting the dogs get to know her. Dogs seemed to have a great time with her here, and we came home to two well cared for pups. Thanks Timia for easing our minds while we were away, and loving on them extra well. If schedules align, we will definitely have Timia back!

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. My family had two Poodles while I was growing up. I helped care for them by giving them baths, feeding them, and walking them. I also made sure they got out and had exercise by taking them for run around my neighborhood. I am active duty in the Army and am stationed at Fort Knox. I can definitely stop by at least twice a day in the morning and then evening. Depending on how far away, I can even stop by mid day during my lunch break. I can come to the pups and care for them at their homes. I’d love to take them out on long walks and to doggie parks. Just playing with them would be amazing!

I was extremely happy with the care Samantha provided for my dog while I was away. My dog has special needs, so finding someone I can trust is especially important, and Samantha exceeded my expectations. She was very communicative throughout the stay, sending updates that gave me peace of mind and reassured me that my dog was receiving excellent care and attention. When I returned home, everything was clean, neat, and exactly as I had left it. It was clear that Samantha took great care of both my dog and my home. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and professional sitter.

Everything was in order and clean when we returned. I'm grateful that we found Haley, and look forward to having her again. If anyone needs a great sitter, she's the one you want. She understands and loves animals, and that makes all the difference.

About: I love pets because they all have different personalities like us. We get to know them and who they are while they get to know us. I am a Junior at UOfSC and I work part time as a cashier. They are my main 2 priorities but I am always willing to discuss how I can fit into you and your pets schedule! I have my own toy poodle named Cody at home and we go for walks everyday. We love to take runs after I get off of school and come back for a nice lunch with some rest. While I take care of others dogs, I ensure they have clean water and food bowls, that they get fresh air, and enough time to use the bathroom. I think it’s important for dogs to be outside and active (especially if they’re as hyper as my dog), so walking, running, or even sitting outside is my favorite thing to do.

Stephanie was communicative before and during our vacation, which we very much appreciate. She loves animals, was compassionate and attentive to our instructions. One of our dogs had tummy issues while we were away and poor Stephanie had to manage all-hours outings, but did so without complaint and with pity for Jack! We’d love to work with her again and recommend her confidently.

Johann did an amazing job with Duck his first time watching him! He is very knowledgeable of animal behavior and different breeds. We got adorable videos of our pup throughout the weekend and plenty of updates that put my mind at ease. Our dog has some health concerns and he did a great job tackling his medications and restrictions. He also left the house cleaner than when he arrived! Highly recommend booking with Johann for your next trip.

Presleigh was so wonderful with my dog Grits. From the start she was kind, reliable and clearly someone who really cares about animals. She went above and beyond my scheduled booking-even checking on Grits outside of the original timeframe when my schedule unexpectedly changed. That meant so much to me and gave me total peace of mind. Grits was so happy and well cared for- I would highly recommend Presleigh!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Woodhill Estates

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Woodhill Estates on Rover is $46.62 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 636 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Woodhill Estates. 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 Woodhill Estates 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 Woodhill Estates 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 Woodhill Estates 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 Woodhill Estates. On Rover:

  • 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 91% 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.
