“Scar was amazing with my two kitties and stayed over a few nights with them. I have a super shy girl that Scar won over and gave lots of pets to, and an extra hyper kitten that they played with and didn’t mind her kitten antics. I received fantastic photos of my kitties that made me feel so much better about my trip. Would definitely rebook and recommend!”
“Gabriyela is phenomenal with our fig and in our home. She cares for Chloe as if her own dog. She sends photos and messages to reassure us that all is going well. I appreciate that she cares for our home well, too. I trust her completely!”
“Viva is the best dog sitter!!! Our boys have such a wonderful connection with her and while we miss them when we are away, we never worry about them. She always sends the best pictures and videos, too! 15/10!”
“Gabriela was the best sitter anyone could ask for - respected time, communication, sent photos and checked in often. She’s patient and trained my puppy to sit in just two days. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Jen was a fantastic sitter for our pup, Maddie! She was very communicative sending regular photo updates during her stay, and kept everything shipshape around the house. If you’re seeking a reliable sitter look no further!”
“Jose was a fantastic in-house sitter for my Labrador Retriever, she took to him immediately and he was a great communicator, sending plenty of updates and pics. He left my house neat as a pin, I will definitely utilize his services again!”
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with over 5 years of experience caring for cats!! I have experience living and taking care of cornish rex kitties - I used to live with 3! I currently live with my roommates' 2 elder cats, who are very sweet but mostly keep to themselves. I treat every pet I care for like they're one of my own. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, giving medications, or simply offering company and cuddles, I’m here to make sure your pet feels cared for and comfortable while you're away!! I am super reliable, attentive to each pet’s unique needs, and passionate about building trust - both with you and your furry baby. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! I currently work part-time, which gives me lots of time to spend cuddling and caring for your pets! I am only unavailable for work on Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays for 5-6 hours. My schedule is very flexible, so I can easily work around your pet’s needs, whether it’s regular visits, feeding times, or extra play sessions. Your pet’s comfort and routine are very important to me! When caring for pets in your home, I always prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. I respect your space and your pet’s routines, making sure they feel secure and loved while you're away. I carefully follow all instructions you provide, whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, or special care needs. I also pay close attention to each pet’s body language and behavior to make sure they feel at ease. Your pet's well-being and your trust mean everything to me. I treat every home and furry family member with the same care and respect I would give my own.
“Sahriya was amazing! She was prompt to both our meet and greet plus booked stay, quick to respond and eager to ask questions. She sent updates throughout and read all instructions/information carefully. I highly recommend Sahriya and her education PLUS vet tech skill cannot be overlooked!! We will definitely be booking again.”
“I can’t thank Anna enough for taking such incredible care of my dog. While I was away, Wanda got into a bag of chocolate, and Anna acted immediately, rushing Wanda to the emergency vet and keeping me updated every step of the way. Anna’s quick thinking truly saved Wanda’s life. Knowing Wanda was in such caring and capable hands gave me so much peace of mind. I’ll always be grateful for Anna’s compassion, and genuine love for animals. Wanda and I are incredibly lucky to have found Anna!”
“Mina was a lifesaver! I had a sitter have an emergency so I needed uber last minute help! Mina came through and saved the day! She was so easy to get along with and trust with my little guy. And I got regular updates and pictures of their time together.They had a fabulous time cuddling and hanging out and I would definitely book her again!”
“Koda loved Ryan and they become buds real quick! This was my first time using Rover and leaving Koda with a dog sitter! He sent me updates and lots of pics everyday! Best experience and would rebook with Ryan!”
“I can’t say enough about Abigail & Cody. So nice and took the best care of my baby. I got the best pics daily and they checked in with me often. Book them if you can!”
“Alfie was so well taken care of with Cabby! She watched him for almost a week at our house. We loved the regular updates and all the love and care she gave our sweet (but very needy) Pitt Bull! Cabby is incredible and we are grateful to have found her!”
“Manuela could not have been a better sitter for our dogs! She was very communicative and professional. She took wonderful care of the pups and went above and beyond!! Would 100% use her services again!”
“Milledgeville went above and beyond. Not only did she take our last minute booking, we also went home to a dog that had a new set of tricks that she learned throughout the week. Amazing, amazing, amazing. Will definitely love to have her sit for us again!”
“Beanie enjoyed her time with Anthony. When he left, she was still following him, which I think is a good sign. Appreciate the care and the updates.”
“Tycen was great! She took excellent care of our house and our Murph. She followed the medication instructions easily and even took Murph on an adventure- which isn’t always the easiest. So many thanks!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Woodland Hills
Highly recommend Ansley! She is professional, friendly, and communicative. I needed a last minute house sit and she did a great job and I felt really comfortable having her sit for me. She sent updates, kept my puppy happy, and my house was very clean when I got back.
Sam did an amazing job caring for my furry friend. Great communication and so sweet! It was nice to leave town for awhile and not have to worry about King Trevor. He's a tempermental little thing and he bonded with her right away. Sam left the house immaculate and even left me a sweet little drawing of the King.
Jillian is amazing! She is very kind and sweet to our pup. She takes him on fun journeys to explore and walk different places. She does check in first before doing so. She is very trust worthy and also leaves our house clean and spotless. Thank you, Jillian!!
Gabriela stayed with our three dogs on short notice and made the effort to come over, meet the crew and get the lay of land for the weekend within 1 day of me reaching out. She is very responsive, responsible and communicates as things come up. She fed our smallest dog out of her own hand to make sure she ate. The house was in the same condition as when we left and the pups were happy!
Anna Lisa was great to work with! She was responsive, followed all of our instructions, and made us feel confident that our kitten was in great hands while we were away. She gave him lots of attention and care, and it was clear that she genuinely enjoyed spending time with him. She also kept our home clean and tidy, which we really appreciated. We would absolutely recommend Anna Lisa and would be happy to have her care for our cat again!
Emmy was absolutely wonderful taking care of Oliver while I was away for the week. From the very beginning, I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such caring and capable hands. She was attentive, dependable, and genuinely cared about making sure Oliver was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. What impressed me most was how often Emmy went above and beyond what I expected. It was clear that she wasn’t simply taking care of him, she treated Oliver like he was her own and made sure he received plenty of attention, affection, and care. Being away from your pet can always be a little stressful, but Emmy gave me tremendous peace of mind throughout the entire week. Knowing Oliver was with someone I could trust allowed me to actually enjoy my time away without worrying about him. I came home to a happy and well-cared-for Oliver, which says everything. I’m incredibly grateful for Emmy and would absolutely trust her with Oliver again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who is responsible, trustworthy, caring, and willing to go the extra mile. Thank you, Emmy, for taking such amazing care of Oliver!

FAQs for House Sitting - Woodland Hills
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Woodland Hills on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 4,898 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.

- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
