“Shanisa was a wonderful sitter! My home was left cleaned and organized and my pups were happy as can be. She was prompt to respond and even though i was away for only a weekend, she made sure to send pictures and videos to me. Would highly recommend!”
About: I’ve had my own dog for years and have also cared for dogs belonging to family and friends, giving me experience with a variety of ages, personalities, and routines. I’ve cared for senior dogs as well as dogs with special needs, strict medication schedules, and specific daily routines.I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and providing attentive, individualized care. Whether a dog needs medication, extra patience, a consistent routine, or simply plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention, I’m happy to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for! I have a super flexible schedule and can work pet care into my daily routine while making sure each pet gets plenty of attention and care! I’m comfortable following individual feeding, medication, exercise, and potty schedules, and I’m happy to adjust my routine around a pet’s specific needs. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own! I carefully follow each owner’s instructions/routines, keep pets in a safe environment, and always make sure doors, gates, and other potential escape points are secure. I’m also attentive to each pet’s individual personality and boundaries, especially with shy, nervous, senior, or special-needs pets. I want both pets and their owners to feel safe, comfortable, and confident while they’re in my care!
“Desirae took great care of my dog and my apartment while I was away for a week. She sent plenty of updates and photos and I felt at ease knowing she is a trained vet tech if anything were to go wrong. My dog seemed very happy and well taken care of when I arrived back home and the apartment was left nice and neat.”
“Matthew showed up on time and followed instructions for our dog. He updated me throughout the day and night. He did great watching her and we will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
About: I once fostered a very cute polydatcyl cat named Cleo and enjoyed every moment of having a fur friend around. I did not mind at all the responsibilities involved in her care and wellbeing. It only lasted for a year but I am sure Cleo remembers/misses me as much as I miss her. I respect all forms of life and I aspire to gain trust and experience in my community. I currently have full time availability. I do have extensive professional background working in leadership roles so I am very responsible and have always prioritized humanity over production. I also enjoy cooking in my free time. While in a client's home, I am very observant of hazards and potential causes for problems. My time will be spent fully attentative to the unique care instructions left by the pets family and also will remain acutely aware of the pets wellbeing for the entire duration of my stay. I have foundational knowledge in cat and dog behavior as well as an understanding of appropriate first aid if ever needed.
“This was my first time leaving my dogs with someone outside of my family for a trip. I and my pups (especially Papas) were nervous. However, Rachel was super understanding and patient! She consistently communicated throughout the entire process. Eventually my pups were feeling more comfortable which was super helpful as I had multiple flights canceled due to a snow storm. Thankfully, Rachel was gracious enough to extend her stay! I felt such an ease of mind knowing that my animals were safe and sound with her especially during a snow storm. Would definitely recommend and utilize again!”
“Lesley was wonderful! Very communicative and detail oriented, making sure she kept a good routine for our dog Lucy. She also did so many helpful household tasks like bringing in our mail and packages (some large) and refilling our dog food container for us before we got home. Would absolutely book again!”
“Leslie was amazing! She stayed at my house for a whole week with my two dogs. She kept me informed numerous times of the day. My dogs loved her and my house was in great order when I got home! I felt so comfortable with Leslie’s care! I will definitely book her again! She is very professional, respectful and kind:)”

“Clarissa was fantastic! We ended up needing a last-minute person to take care of our fur baby so that we could be away for a night. Clarissa was available and willing to come to our home to meet our for baby in person before we went out of town. Then, she had great communication to keep us up-to-date while we were away. I have tremendous confidence in Clarissa and look forward to using her again. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”
“We loved Olivia! My unsocial dog loved her too! As an anxious dog mom, I so appreciated all the communication Olivia sent us. Photos, meals, snoozing, cuddling, and mornings of pawsitive affirmations! We highly recommend Olivia and will use her again for sure! But we better book fast because she is always in high demand! Thank you Olivia!”
“Bridgette takes care of our elderly dog like he is her baby, which is just we do and appreciate that so much! We never worry when he is here with her and highly recommend this lovely lady!”
“June took care of our two dogs for several days and was absolutely wonderful. She was clear and responsive in her communications before and during her stay. During the stay, it seems our dogs loved her and look to have had a great time while we were gone. We highly recommend June — and we look forward to working with her again!”

Shanisa was a wonderful sitter! Watching three dogs by yourself is not easy, but she held it down for us! She gave us plenty of updates throughout the weekend and our dogs seemed to love her. It was comforting to know they were in good hands while we were away!

The average cost of House Sitting in Woodland is $65 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $56 and $111 per night. 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.

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 Woodland 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 Woodland 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 Woodland 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 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.

- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
