“Lilly was fantastic with our three dogs. Two of them are 15 y/o and needed a lot of personal attention - and she was terrific. The dogs all loved her, she stayed in touch with us and sent pictures. You know when you meet Lilly that you have a super dependable and kind person that will care for your pets like they were hers. The ratings only go up to '5' but she earned a '10'!!”
“This was our first time having a stranger house sit for us and we were super nervous, but upon meeting Ellie we knew our pups were going to be in great hands! We were gone for about 3 days and Ellie sent us pictures and updates of the pups everyday. When we got back home we were so happy to see how well the pups and the house were taken care of. We are super happy with Ellie and will definitely be asking for her help in the future! Thank you Ellie!”
“IULIIA watched our dog again overnight for a second time and did great. We really trust her and know she is taking good care of our dog. We have already booked her again for another future trip!”
“Jennifer was an absolute lifesaver. She took great care of our pups and home. She was very communicative and sent updates. She even helped us out when we were running late and needed some additional time from her. Would highly recommend her, and I will definitely be requesting her again. Thanks Again!”
“Neyda was a delight to meet and a fast friend to our Frenchie Lucy. The meet and greet with my wife included taking Lucy for a walk that started a bond. Neyda took good care of our home and our sweet dog. Already planning our next get away with Neyda to help take care of Lucy. A great find!”
“Jacqui was very responsive and timely with all communications and visits. Our dog liked her from the very first visit and so did we. She sent us pictures and updates often, which was helpful and reassuring. We felt our pup was well taken care of while we were out of town. We will definitely use Jacqui again in the future and would recommend her to others!”
“Anthony did an amazing job caring for our dog and our home. Our dog is very shy but he took the time to build a great relationship with her. He even bathed her and left the house spotless! He provided is updates during our trip and really did an amazing job. We would love to have him watch her again in the future!”
“Ariana stayed at my house to watch my two dogs and was tremendous. She’s trustworthy, good communicator, loves animals, and responsible. I’d give 6 stars if I could and look forward to using her again!”
“After several failed attempts of boarding my reactive dog, Mrs. Erika came to my rescue. I spent a week in Atlanta and Erika took amazing care of my pup Champ. She sent me pictures each day and made sure I felt comfortable and trustful of her. I have absolutely no complaints. She has been a life saver for me. She was patient, understanding, and flexible to my pups needs. I look forward to my next trip now that I no longer have anxiety about finding the perfect sitter. I recommend Mrs. Erika for anyone needing an in house sitter for their reactive dog. Also, my place was spotless when I arrived back home. 10/10!”
“Jeffrey was amazing! He kept us posted constantly while we were out of town. It helped us give us a peace of mind and we will definitely be booking him again in the near future.”
“Yana was amazing!! She watched our dog for 5 days in our home and did an amazing job caring for her. I think our dog may be sad to have us home and missing Yana! She sent lots of really cute pictures and videos too! We will be repeat customers for sure!!”
“Lisa was just what we needed for our pups. She was always on time, had clear communication and made sure our pups were fed, did their potty breaks, played fetch and got lots of love. She sent us lots of cute photos, too. Definitely recommend working with her if you want a reliable pet sitter.”
About: Pets (especially dogs) are so healing for me! I can’t own any right now, so if I can spend some time with yours, that would be amazing. I’m currently unemployed and would appreciate any opportunity to increase my income due to this economy! I can walk them, cuddle with them, feed them; whatever you need. I’ll make sure to let them feel love while their family is away. I’m currently unemployed, so my schedule is pretty open! If I’m not pre booked, I’m all yours! I do enjoy going to the gym or moving my body somehow, so taking them for a walk (if applicable, would be great! As long as you leave me a set of instructions and where food, water, (meds if needed), and essentials are, I’m all set to care for your pets.
“Angela exceeded our high expectations (based on her previous reviews). She was very caring towards our elderly dog, as shown by the questions she asked about her eating habits, where she sleeps etc. Angela is also an outstanding photographer and sent us regular pics of our dog who was clearly very happy spending time with Angela. Angela treated our home with complete respect and it was spotless when we returned. Angela even gave us a detailed list of all the things our dog did for example how she behaves during walks etc. I cannot imagine a better dog-sitter than Angela.”
“Taylor took great care of my two chihuahuas and home while my husband and me were gone for the holidays. We so appreciated her availability on Christmas! The dogs seemed happy when we returned and the house was in good order.”
“Jade was so wonderful and communicative! I was truly able to enjoy my time away knowing that she was taking such good care of my babies, including giving them the medicine they needed! Cannot wait to ask Jade to watch my animals again in the future!”
“Taylor was a pleasure to work with! She was very communicative and kept us updated with our pet's needs. Letting us know if they were eating properly and how they were doing on their walks. Taylor was great with our dogs and sent wonderful pictures. She was very flexible when our dog had to have eyedrops given last minute right before we left. Her positive attitude and dedication gave us peace of mind while we were gone on vacation for a week. We knew our dogs were getting well cared for and wouldn't hesitate to use her again! We highly recommend her!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Woodland Hills
Jennifer was great, in the end, my dog was happy and stress free when i returned from a trip, quite a feat for a dog with separation anxiety. She befriended my dog to make it feel taken care of and loved, and it shows. My house was in the exact shape I left it as well. We could not be happier with Jennifer, we plan to use her services again!!
Gillian was amazing!! She stayed at our house to watch our dog and two cats. She was very easy to communicate with and followed all directions! She kept us updated each day which was great. When we got home, the house was perfectly clean. I would highly recommend her!! She was also more than willing to do a meet and greet before the stay! Thanks Gillian!
Anthony did an amazing job caring for our dog and our home. Our dog is very shy but he took the time to build a great relationship with her. He even bathed her and left the house spotless! He provided is updates during our trip and really did an amazing job. We would love to have him watch her again in the future!
Samantha was amazing! She kept in close touch with us, and our dog loved her! He was happy and relaxed when we got home. Samantha spent tons of time with him. I think he’s going to miss her, as are we. I highly recommend Samantha! You’ll feel so safe and secure when you leave your dog in her care.
Caitlan was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter for our anxious dog, Alfie, and our cat, Roland. Caitlan made Alfie feel very calm and loved, and from the first moment they met I knew she'd be a great fit for an anxious doggo! Caitlan followed our requests to a T and went above and beyond with a checklist noting his meds being taken, and walks 2x a day. Alfie struggles with leash aggression with other dogs sometimes, and Caitlan really helped him with this behavior...he definitely seems to have improved! Roland, our cat, also struggles with wanting nighttime feeding and she managed to help him reduce his 'poking' for food behaviors down to just 1x a night. We didn't realize when we booked Caitlan that she is not just a dog/cat sitter but something of an animal therapist as well, lol! Caitlan communicated often about how they were doing, sent photos etc. We knew they were in such safe and loving hands with her! To top it all off, when we got back after three weeks she had washed her bed linens and sofa throw, and made us the most delicious banana bread. Caitlan was uber professional but most importantly she really connects with animals and intuitively seems to know what is best for them. We are definitely going to book her again for any future trips!
Brianna was amazing with our 10+ year old fur baby who has significant medication needs. She administered eye meds 3 times a day and gave him his night time allergy meds without fail. We came home to a very happy and healthy dog. Would highly recommend her services.
Jeremy took incredible care of our bullmastiff, Bernie, who can definitely be a handful! He kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay, left our home spotless, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely book him again. Highly recommend!
Bruna was absolutely amazing with my cat Carl and French Bulldog Daisy. I needed a sitter with less than 24 hours’ notice over the Fourth of July holiday, and she stepped in without hesitation. At the time, Daisy had just undergone surgery and required constant supervision along with medication administration. B handled everything flawlessly and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She sent frequent updates, photos, and messages, which meant so much given Daisy’s condition. Most importantly, it was obvious that both Carl and Daisy adored her. You can tell when someone genuinely loves animals, and they were comfortable, happy, and well cared for in her hands. I would not hesitate to book Bruna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and attentive pet sitter.
Jesse was such a great help to me in taking care of my dog when I was setting up a party. My dog was a bit anxious and overstimulated from all my running around while doing party prep and Jesse helped calm him with cuddles and reassurance. It was a relief to not have to worry about my dog during my party because I knew he was in great hands.
Arielle did an incredible job house sitting our 3 pets over the long weekend. She was professional, attentive, and a joy to our 2 dogs and cat. Updates every day with pictures and a report on the days and evening activities. We knew our pets were safe and happy with Arielle watching them. Would and will try to rebook with her again!
Ava is what every dog owner hopes for when leaving their pet in someone else’s care. She is loving, gentle, trustworthy, and we couldn’t be more grateful to have found her. Clover is a shy and nervous but sweet girl who just takes some time to open up- but Ava’s unmatched ability to make her feel adored and safe has meant an easy transition to being best buds. Whether it’s taking clover for her daily walk, or Ava watching her for an extended stay, we take comfort in knowing our girl is being loved and having a blast.

FAQs for House Sitting - Woodland Hills
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Woodland Hills on Rover is $69.93 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 11,876 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Woodland Hills. 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 Hills 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 Hills 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 Hills 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.

- 97% 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.
