“Tristan did an amazing job caring for our four pups! It was clear they were happy, relaxed, and well cared for while we were away. He kept us updated with plenty of photos and thoughtful stories about our fur babies, which gave us so much peace of mind and made us feel connected to them the entire time. We returned to a clean home and four very happy dogs. We would gladly trust Tristan with our pups again!”
“Really helped us out in a pinch. Our dogs loved her, she was very understanding, communicative, and clean. I’ll definitely try to rebook with her when needed!”
“Julie was wonderful and took such great care of our pup while we were on vacation for a few days! She gave us daily updates and sent lots of pictures. Will definitely use her again. ❤️”
“Megan was an excellent sitter for my boys! I was able to leave my 2 boxers home while I travelled for a day long business trip. Megan sent pictures, notes and kept me informed throughout the day. I returned to 2 happy pups and a neat & tidy home. Thank you Megan!”
“We had Staci stay with our Pittie, Jax, in our home, for 15 days. She came over for a meet and greet before we departed and Jax took to her immediately. Staci was dependable, neat, and trustworthy. She took such great care of Jax, even let him sleep with her. She sent us regular updates and pictures while we were gone. We came home to find not only a happy dog, but a clean house too. I would definitely rebook with Staci and would recommend her to anyone.”
“Julie was excellent! Our girl Moxie suffers from separation anxiety and Julie knew how to support her while we were gone. In addition, our house was so clean you wouldn’t have known anyone else had been there. Thank you, Julie!”
“Grace was a lovely dog sitter!! We felt so comfortable leaving our dogs with her. She provided tons of photos and updates and we could tell she is a genuine dog lover and took really good care of them. We will definitely be using her again!”
“She went above and beyond for my pets. She communicated well and followed all of my requests. I definitely felt good leaving them in her hands for a few days and will be sure to hire her again! :)”
About: My jack, Russell terrier, Chili passed away in August of 2022. The house feels empty without a dog running around, but I’m not quite ready to be a full-time permanent mom just yet. However, I would love to take care of your loved one in My Home, and the house would not feel so empty. I have a fenced in yard. It’s not very big but plenty of room for a small, medium dog. I make your pet my first priority. I used to work from home and that was great because I was able to be with the pups all day and night. I now will be in the office on most week days. I do not work far from home so if needed, I can pop in at lunchtime. I have a fenced yard. Your fur babies are welcome on my furniture and the bed but if you prefer them to be crated, that is fine too.
About: I have taken care of pets, walking, feeding, etc. since I was 12 years old. Not just dogs and cats, but also reptiles and amphibians. I am available before school (I’m a high school teacher) 6am - 7 am and after work, depending on location from 5 - 9 pm. I currently do not offer care for pets in my own home, however I am able to spend as much time as needed with your pet to make them comfortable while you are away.
“Autumn was absolutely wonderful with Buddy! This was my first time leaving him with a sitter, and she gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Buddy can be a handful and takes some patience and attention, but Autumn handled him incredibly well and kept me updated throughout my trip. I was able to actually relax knowing he was safe, happy, and being well cared for. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can trust with him and would absolutely book Autumn again!”
“She was amazing watching our pups. We got pictures every single day and updates. She arrived on time and let us know. When she left. She cleaned up after herself. I would recommend her to anybody that's looking for in-house dog sitting. She is definitely reliable.”

My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide reliable care, stick to your pet's routine, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Caring for animals isn't just something I do—it's something I truly enjoy Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet's usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication (if needed), and plenty of affection. I pay close attention to their behavior and comfort level, ensuring they receive individualized care based on their personality and needs. In a client's home, I also respect their space by keeping it clean, secure, and following any instructions they provide. I send regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for while they're away. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care that helps both pets and their owners feel at ease.

“Sophie and Jacob are amazing! It was our first time leaving our puppy with a sitter and we were pretty nervous but I had such peace of mind the whole time I was gone. They sent cute pictures everyday and left our house pristine. We came home to a very happy pup. So happy we found someone who loves our dog as much as us. 10/10 recommended them”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,649 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Woodland. 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 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 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 Woodland. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
