“Just wanted to share the great experience we had with Catecha this past weekend—and on very short notice! My pitbull, Jug, has some serious separation anxiety issues; issues we weren't fully aware of either, since this was his first time being watched by someone outside the family. Catecha was absolutely amazing and seemed to understand Jug's delicate personality right away. She kept us updated with lots of pictures and videos, which helped put my mind at ease. Her communication was top-notch, always responsive and not afraid to ask questions. She left our home clean and tidy—a huge bonus to come home to after traveling! I HIGHLY recommend Catecha if you need a dog sitter, especially if your pup is a bit high-maintenance, like mine. After the initial anxiety of leaving in general wore off, I felt comfortably at ease leaving Jug in her care, and that's priceless. I will definitely be using Catecha again in the future!”
“Mateo was geear and professional to work with. He was able to come by multiple times a day to check up on Domino and provide him the care he needed! Would recommend to friends and family!”
“Kira was EXCEPTIONAL and EXCEEDED my expectations in every way. She obviously loves animals and my four dogs absolutely loved her. They all vied for her attention and her positive energy satisfied their demands. She is more than just a dog "sitter." She engages and "plays" with the dogs and they love it. I was very detailed in my requests regarding their care and she was eager to know what I wanted and met their needs beautifully. I had to be gone for four days to visit a very sick friend going through a bone marrow transplant and it was such a blessing to know my dogs were in such trusting, professional, and capable hands. Kira also took great care of my parrot, Buddy. Kira keeps a smile on her face and is very kind and sweet. She communicated with me while I was away and sent pictures of my dogs enjoying themselves. I returned to a home that was as clean as I left it, with a freshly made bed. I will use Kira and only Kira, if she is available. I selfishly and with hesitation HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND Kira for anyone looking for a dogsitter, because I want to keep her schedule open for when I need her. :) She is definitely a 10/10.”
“Kayleigh was great! This was my first time using Rover. After reviewing many people, I chose Kaylea based on her reviews. She is absolutely outstanding with my dog, Khloe. She kept her at her house for the weekend while I was out of town. Chloe came back, excited, clean, healthy, and happy. Kaylea paid special attention to Chloe, even allowing her to sleep in her bed, which is where Chloe is used to sleeping at my house in mine. I would highly recommend Kaylea if you need your pet looked after. I will definitely use Kayleigh again. Next time I travel out of town.”
“I was skeptical to use Rover, but I had to make last-minute travel plans and my regular pet sitter was unavailable so I decided to give it a try. I was also afraid that nobody was going to want to take care of my eight dogs (mostly senior and special needs) and one cat. I contacted Amber and described all of my pets and their special needs, and she was up for the challenge. She even shared pictures and stories of her own babies to make me feel more at ease. Leaving six dogs over the age of 12, two special needs Frenchies (one deaf and one paralyzed), and one 17-year-old cat in the care of a stranger was very difficult for me to do. Upon meeting Amber, however, I was quickly put at ease. My animals immediately took to her and I could tell she was a kind, calm, gentle soul, which made leaving them easier. Amber handled all of my babies with extreme care and even read and followed my many, many pages of instructions. When she had questions, she texted or called me just like I asked. She took on the challenge of my paralyzed Frenchie like a pro - and it's not an easy job. She had to express her bladder every several hours, change her diaper, give her baths, carry her around, and give her lots of snuggles! She administered medications to my animals and gave them the various types of different food they eat. I came home to a happy, healthy crew of animals - and a new friend! I'm so happy I chose Amber and that she "chose" us. I highly recommend her and would definitely use her again!”
“Brandi is a pet sitting gem! We have two pups with big personalities, and she was patient, reliable, and adaptable. She communicated every step of the way. She maintained professionalism but also loved them like they were her own. Yuna and Bumi hope to see Brandi again soon!”
About: I love being active and outdoors, dogs always have a special place in my heart. I am currently a veterinarian assistant and have been working with animals for over 7 years through the military. I have been trained on: first aid, grooming, hygiene, and care for all animals. Working with dogs of all sizes helps me better my skills so I can someday be a vetanarian and open my own hospital. I strongly believe that dogs are men best friend and should be treated with the best care and love. Running around with young and energetic dogs or walking and relaxing with older and relaxed dogs I love them both. And I look forward to having this great opertonity and experience with your dog. I work relief for a vet hospital but my availability is very flexible. I am able to take your pet out twice a day if needed. I have a fenced in back yard and a nice neighborhood where we are able to run and walk with our dogs. So there is plenty of space to play and relax.
“This is the 3rd time Meredyth has taken care of our dogs at our house and she has become family. She immediately bonded with our boxers, and makes sure they are well cared for when we are out of town. I totally trust her with Both the pets and the home.”
“Tara was excellent caring for my cats during a weekend trip I took. Aside from the basics, she gave them companionship and loving care during my absence. I will absolutely use Tara again. She was respectful of my home, communicated with me often and sent pictures while I was away. Thank you so much Tara!”
“Great with all my furbabies and I have 5 total she actually sits with them the whole time and plays with them lets them in and out and sends pictures. She is very responsive along with sending her own picture updates throughout the house sitting . I will definitely be contacting her for any future house sitting needs 😊”
About: Hi, my name is Ashley, and I am a middle school educator. Outside of teaching and working with students, I have a huge love for dogs. I have three family dogs, two girls and one boy, and I truly enjoy each of their unique personalities. Funny enough, my boy dog’s birthday is the day before mine, so I always joke that we have the same personality! I have always been the type of person who instantly notices dogs wherever I go. Whether I’m walking around town or traveling on vacation, I’m usually the one saying, “Oh my gosh, look at that dog! I want to go pet them!” I even find myself feeling emotional when I see stray dogs because I wish every dog had a loving home. Animals bring so much joy, and being around dogs has always been something that makes me genuinely happy. I am currently a school teacher, so during summer break I have open availability and more flexibility to provide pet care throughout the day. Once the school year begins, my availability will mainly be during evenings throughout the week and on weekends. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, so I do my best to follow the care instructions provided by their owner. Pet care for me includes making sure they receive their meals on time, have fresh water, go on their daily walks or potty breaks, and get plenty of attention. I also love spending time playing, cuddling, and giving them affection so they feel cared for while their family is away.
“This was our second time requesting Joanna's services to take care of our two dogs. She's always so kind and communicative. She made sure to send plenty of pictures and updates during her stay. She's also clearly a dog lover, as she takes such great care of our boys and they love her dearly. They're so comfortable around her. Our house was also in great shape when we got back. We couldn't ask for more & at this point she's really the only person we'd trust to take care of our dogs!”
“Shannon was great! I need someone in a very short amount of time and she was able to make it happen. Easy to get in touch with communication is outstanding. Our 2 goldens were loved on so much and very well taken care of while we were gone. Will definitely ask her to watch them again!!”
About: I do not have any special skills other than Love! I will treat your dog/cat like I treat my own. I believe in being prompt and understand the importance of schedules. I am dependable and trustworthy and ready to care for your furbaby. Love” I am available for early morning, late morning, afternoon, evening and late evening services. I can work around your schedule. Let’s talk and see what works for you. I care for clients pets in their homes the same way I would do at my own home. I take the same care and take them out when needed. I love doggie hugs and love and make sure they get the amount of exercise that the client request.
“Donnis took great care of our Honey Bun and our home while we were out of town for a week. This was our first time doing either and we didn’t know what to expect. She sent updates and pictures twice daily and that helped the whole family feel comfortable that Honey was being well taken care of! We will definitely reach out to her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 10 years old. I have taken dogs for walks, overnight care, administer medication, follow feeding times and making sure that the fur babies are well taken care of. I have a flexible schedule. I can spend most of my time taking care of your dogs. I am available Friday evenings through Sunday nights. I make sure to read over the guidelines from my clients and how they prefer their dogs to be cared for. Let me know if their special care needed.
About: Caring for pets and house sitting has been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember! I’m just getting started here on Rover, but I have over 15 years of experience managing homes and caring for all kinds of animals. Whether looking after my own pets or stepping in to help others, I pride myself on being reliable, trustworthy, and attentive to every detail. Having owned a senior pets myself, I understand the patience, gentle touch, and close monitoring they require. I am fully trained and comfortable administering medications, including oral doses and injections, so you can travel with total peace of mind knowing your pet's health is in expert hands. My schedule is currently flexible and I'm eager to help you and your furry friends. I'm usually available after after a 24 hour notice. For House Sitting or Drop-Ins I treat your home with the utmost respect and strictly follow your security routines. I ensure all doors, windows, and gates are locked securely behind me. During visits, your pets are kept on a leash in unfenced areas. For Dog Walking Your dog's physical safety is my primary focus. I double-check all equipment (collars, harnesses, and leashes) before we leave the house and strictly avoid high-traffic or hazardous walking paths. I keep dogs on-leash at all times and remain highly alert to other dogs and traffic in your neighborhood.
“Savannah is an absolute gem! She recently took care of our 3 pups and our home while we spent a week at the beach, and she went above and beyond! She made sure we were updated on how the pups were doing and actively looked for ways to help us around our home to make our return so much easier. Our pups were so happy when we came home, we could tell they received so much TLC. Highly recommend!”
“As first-time Rover users, we were initially nervous, but Taryn immediately set our minds at ease. She warmly suggested a meet-and-greet to ensure it was a good fit for us and our pets. While we were away, Taryn was excellent with communication, checking in upon arrival and sending regular photos and updates. Coming home was a delight; our house was spotless, our dogs were happy, fed, and well-exercised, and Taryn had even thoughtfully started a load of household linens in the wash. We have no doubt our animals adored her and received the very best care. We will absolutely be asking Taryn to return!”

Catecha was great again. I got video and pictures of both dogs, and they were happy with their tails wagging. Catecha stays at the house to make the dogs feel more comfortable when we are gone. She is respectful of the house and leaves it clean. We have other trips planned in the coming months and will be booking with Catecha again!
Alexis was fantastic! Never once did I have to wonder how my baby was doing because she kept me up to date the entire time. She sends plenty of pictures and videos.....that warmed my heart. And, she knew how Jersey loves to go for rides, so Alexis didn't hesitate to let Jersey tag along....even to get a pup cup! Lol I can't wait to book with Alexis again. Even my parents said how great she was! Excellent communicator! Thank you for your services, Alexis!
First time using Rover! What a great experience! Our sitter was so communicative, sending us pictures and videos of our Rocky. She was on time, very good with our Senior dog, and made us feel completely comfortable leaving her in our home with our dog. Def recommend her if you're looking for someone to take good care of your pet!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 2,844 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Woodland Acres. 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 Acres 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 Acres 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 Acres 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 Acres. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
