Angie did a great job watching my pup. He seemed to like her and she also took very good care of my house. Would definitely have her watch my dog again.

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with pets and have owned three wonderful dogs over the years—a Shetland Sheepdog, a Chocolate Labrador Retriever, and my current Terrier mix, Bandit. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I've volunteered with a local dog rescue and fostered dogs, giving me experience with a variety of breeds, ages, personalities, and temperaments. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with company, I'll make sure they receive the individualized care and attention they deserve. I'm also comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions to help keep your pet healthy, happy, and comfortable. I work full-time during the week. Because I want every pet in my care to receive plenty of attention, I offer boarding in my home on weekends, when I can dedicate my time to walks, playtime, cuddles, and maintaining your dog's normal routine. During the week, I offer drop-in visits for pets who need potty breaks, meals, walks, medication, or companionship while their owners are at work or away. This schedule allows me to provide dependable, attentive care while ensuring every pet gets the time and attention they deserve. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I'll carefully follow your pet's routine and keep you updated with daily photos and videos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. Because my dog, Bandit, will also be in the home during boarding stays, I require a meet-and-greet before accepting new boarding clients to ensure our dogs are comfortable together and are a good fit. My goal is to provide a safe, low-stress, loving environment where every dog feels welcome, secure, and cared for like family.

About: Mike's first job was caring for his neighbors' pets. Mike has had pets since he was 10, and travelled around the world with his dogs and cats during his military career and regional sales role. Roscoe, Higgins, and Freyja are living the dream in the Pacific Northwest with frequent road (work) trips and cross-country visits to the family in Indiana and Massachusetts. Let me know if we can help you with your fur babies. Mike works from home and is an early riser. While the coffee is brewing, all the animals are waking up with bathroom breaks and breakfast. Mike walks Roscoe after breakfast and dinner. Since Roscoe is a senior, we frequently split the two meals into snacks and shorter walks. When the cats are interested, they climb into the backpacks and go see the world with us. I pay attention to the animals' behavior and routines. Consistency in feeding and bathroom breaks has made my pets very comfortable with my work and social routines. I have the flexibility to meet your routines and maintain the consistency you expect with your family while away from home. I recognize when it's time to stop playing, reduce the mileage, or go to the vet.

About: I am a dog sitter for neighbors and trusted friends! I am reliable and attentive, and love dogs with my whole heart. I also have a dog myself!! I have grown up surrounded with different dogs and would love to make sure you’re pet is comfortable when you’re not there! I love being outside, whether it’s going on walks or hikes, so pet care fits perfectly into my week. Taking care of dogs is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for. I care for pets by following their usual routine as closely as possible! In a clients home, I make sure pets feel secure in their familiar space and making sure everything is tidy.

About: I have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’ve helped friends, neighbors, and family by walking, feeding, bathing, and caring for their pets while they were away. I’m patient, responsible, and very attentive to routines, safety, and each pet’s individual needs. I make sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for, and I always follow the owner’s instructions closely. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet as if it were my own. Pet care fits very well into my daily routine. I’m available on weekdays from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., and again after 6:00 p.m. I’m also fully available on weekends, which allows me to provide consistent care, attention, and flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting I always prioritize safety, trust, and respect when caring for pets in their own home. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions, maintain routines, ensure doors and gates are secure, and keep pets in a calm and safe environment. I treat every home and pet with responsibility, care, and attention.

Sydney was absolutely wonderful! She house sat for us and looked after our special needs dog with ease. Sydney sent us messages throughout the day and lots of photos to make sure we felt comfortable. She went above and beyond by replacing a smoke detector battery that started beeping while we were away. We will definitely be booking with Sydney again. She took care of our pup and home as if they were her own.

Michael did a fantastic job taking care of my pets! He was reliable, punctual, and communicated really well throughout the entire booking. He made sure my dog was fed, took him on walks, and kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I also really appreciated that he kept me informed as my cats slowly warmed up to him. It was clear he was patient with them and paid attention to each of my pets’ personalities and needs. Overall, I had a great experience and felt like my animals were in good hands. I would absolutely book with Michael again and would happily recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter!

Leila took such wonderful care of both my dog Matteo and my cat Diesel while I was away. Matteo immediately loved her, and she made sure he got plenty of attention and exercise. What really impressed me, though, was how she connected with Diesel. He’s extremely shy and almost never comes out when new people are around—but somehow Leila won him over! By the end of the visit, he was not only comfortable but eating right out of her hand. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing both of my pets were happy, safe, and cared for like family. Leila sent thoughtful updates and photos, which I really appreciated. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate sitter. We feel lucky to have found her!

FAQs for House Sitting - Woodhouse Corner

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Woodhouse Corner on Rover is $42.18 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 1,122 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Woodhouse Corner. 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 Woodhouse Corner 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 Woodhouse Corner 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 Woodhouse Corner 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 Woodhouse Corner. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
