“Wanda house and pet sat for my two dogs and three cats and was amazing! I did not love the idea of boarding my dogs over a long weekend and Wanda came to the rescue. My animals instantly loved her and one my cats who is very shy even warmed up to her. She gave constant updates and was wonderful with communication. I cannot recommend her enough. Thank you, Wanda, for taking such great care of my furbabies.”
About: Hey! I'm Darby, I have 6 years of experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes including dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, amphibians, and small mammals. Pet sitting was the fist way I discovered I could make money when I was in middle school, and I still love it to this day! I have about 1.5 years of experience working as a trained veterinary technician. This means that I am comfortable working with special needs animals, providing special diets, and administering medication. I am also familiar working with animals that may be anxious. Right now, I'm studying animal biology at The University of Tennessee, working at an exotic animal clinic, and am starting to apply for veterinary school. Relevant Classes: Animal Anatomy and Physiology, Cellular & Molecular Biology, Small Animal Veterinary Medicine I'm currently working part-time and taking college courses online. My best availability is all-day Friday-Sunday, but I can be flexible if I have a heads up! I like to make sure I have everything I need to know from a client before they leave so I don't have to bother them too much while they're away! This includes medication, feeding schedule, behavioral problems, and any space that may be off limits to myself and/or the pet. I'm no stranger to a mess, so no worries if your pet is prone to accidents.
“Cayla was amazing with our girls and we’re so thankful to have our first time using rover be stress free. She was wonderful with timing, sending pictures and videos and giving the girls love! We felt comfortable knowing our dogs were safe at home with her and will be looking to rebook for our next vacation. Thank you again, Cayla!”
About: I have copious experience caring with animals- anything from dogs and cats to rats and hamsters! Family and friends regularly trust me to care for their pets! I am very knowledgeable on different kinds of animal care, and I am excellent at keeping pet parents updated about their animals. :) I currently work part time! I am available all day on most any day I am off, usually weekdays. I am available after 5:15pm any day I work, usually on the weekends! I will do my best to help keep them to a routine that's comfortable for them! I am happy to walk them, play with them, feed them- anything! I have experience cleaning up after animals if something were to go wrong. I try to provide dogs plenty of time outdoors, or cats lots of enrichment!
“Addie was fantastic. She stayed at my home for 15 days watching Freddie and Purrl, and honestly the communication alone made the whole trip stress-free. She sent regular updates and photos, so I never had to wonder how they were doing — I just knew. Came home to two happy, well-cared-for animals and a house left in great shape. Addie was respectful of my space the entire time, which matters a lot when someone's living in your home. Would book her again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone who wants a sitter they can actually trust while they're away.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Shelby! This was our first time using a dog sitter who wasn’t a family member, and we were a little nervous at first — but Shelby completely put our minds at ease. She took great care of our dog and sent multiple photos every day so we always knew how he was doing. It was clear she treated him with kindness and attention, and we came home to a happy pup and a clean home. We’re so grateful for her care and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful sitter!”
“Justin was AMAZING. I could not recommend trusting him with your dog more. We were so hesitant about going on rover with our German Shepard that has anxiety but Justin sent so many photo updates and made us feel so relax. It was so refreshing being able to leave the house for the weekend and know he is going to be okay. Justin stayed at my house for the weekend and was so respectful and a great house guest. 1000/10 recommend him for your watching your dog.”
“Gillian was AMAZING! She checked in with me and sent pictures everyday. She followed my MANY instructions to a “T”. Already booked her for the next trip! She watched my Great Dane and 2 cats in my home.”
“Sofia was great! I got cute pics of my girls when I was away and knew I didn’t need to worry about them. She left my house as clean as I left it, which I was so grateful for! Will for sure book with her again”
About: Hello! My name is Destiny, I have 8 years of experience caring for all types of dogs and cats! I am a mom of two human kids and four furry kids (three cats,one dog) For the past couple years,I was building up clientele for my in-home boarding and then was eventually able to just take regulars for a few years. However , now I am wanting to branch out and offer drop-ins and dog walks in the Red Bank/Hixson area! I have experience administrating oral medicine and eye medication for both dogs and cats. I've also watched pups with separation anxiety. I'd love to come meet you and your furry(or not) family member! Look forward to hearing from you! I teach 1 hr aqua Zumba classes three times a week, two 45 min aqua combat classes and two 45 min aqua yoga flow and fusion classes other than that I am highly flexible! I typically only take 3 clients at a time. I offer one or two drop-ins a day and each time you will receive updates via a Rover card with start time and finish time, pictures, and a small description of my time there.
About: I love animals so much, but I cannot have anymore pets of my own, so offering dog and cat care services gives me the opportunity to care for some furry friends. I've taken care of dogs of all sizes and cats for a little over 3 years now! Neighbors, friends, family, and coworkers are able to rely on me to stay with, walk, feed, bathe, and go for potty breaks. During drop-ins, not only will I just let your dog out to potty, I will also sit with them, play with them, pet and/or snuggle with them (if they like to be snuggled), and also will refresh water without having to be asked. I am confident that you can trust me with your fur babies, and I will always treat your babies the way that I would want someone to treat mine while I'm not there! It's my goal to make your dog will feel at home when they're with me. I'm currently working full-time from about 8-4 Monday-Friday, but my work hours are pretty flexible and I work remotely, so I can easily fit pet care into my daily routine. I am an early bird, so I can be available as early as you need me, and am also available through the evening. If I am simply walking your dog, during the summer months, I will do so in the morning or in the late afternoon/evening, so your baby doesn't overheat or get burnt paws. If I am going to take your pup out for a potty break and for some play time, I will make sure only to stay as long as needed (if requested) and to lock up your house properly when I leave.
“Katie was a fantastic sitter. She stayed in our home for a week with our dogs. She gave thorough updates and it was easy to tell she was keeping the dogs very active and happy. Katie clearly had an aptitude for animal care. We are very happy we are lucky enough to have found her!”
“Jacee was an excellent sitter & kept me updated with daily photos while house sitting. My fur babies loved her & I definitely trust her to stay with them again in the future. :)”
“Trish was great and made herself available on short notice to meet and watch our puppy, Ophelia, who absolutely loved her. We really appreciated kindness, disposition, and flexibility. We'll now feel more comfortable going out knowing Ophelia is lovingly cared for.”
“I had a wonderful experience! She was very responsive and took the time to come for a meet and greet before my trip. While I was away, I received plenty of pictures and videos, which made me feel reassured that my little Teddy Bear was in great hands.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Woodland Heights is $45
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Woodland Heights
Addisen was amazing! She came over prior to the visit to meet my pets and listened to all ramblings of instructions. She communicated and sent pictures everyday I was gone. I was so grateful to find her! Definitely would recommend her to anyone and will be booking again in the future!
I couldn’t be happier with Justin! He took incredible care of my two Labs and went above and beyond—regular updates, photos throughout the day, and playtime. He’s punctual, trustworthy, and clearly experienced with dogs. My boys were relaxed and happy the entire time. I’ve already booked him for my next trip! Highly recommend—five stars!
Kiara has been incredibly reliable. She’s stepped in on short notice for walks and has also stayed overnight with my dog. She consistently provides updates and photos, which gives me great peace of mind knowing my dog is in excellent care. She also took great care of my home while I was away. I would absolutely trust Kiara to look after my girl again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, attentive sitter.
Wanda did an amazing job getting my wary cats to warm up to her.....a true cat whisperer! She kept me informed of any issues (one of the cats threw up and the other one had a GI issue). The house was in excellent shape upon our return and everything was just as we left it. I would book her again in a heartbeat!

FAQs for House Sitting - Woodland Heights
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Woodland Heights on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 492 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Woodland Heights. 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 Heights 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 Heights 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 Heights 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.

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.
