“We had a fantastic experience with Diana. I was so nervous even though I was only leaving my dog for 2.5 days. But Diana sent lots of updates and really put me at ease. I highly recommend her!”
“Mckenzie took great care Housesitting for our energetic retriever. She did a nice job of communicating with us which made being away easy. Definitely will be asking her to sit again.”
“Emily is fantastic. She made sure all of Kodas needs were met while watching her, including taking her for hikes and trips to the dog park! It’s always reassuring knowing Koda is having fun and getting exercise when I have to travel for work. Emily was easy to communicate with and left the house very tidy. I’ll definitely be utilizing Emily’s services again.”

I am available whenever you will need me so just send me a text and i’ll be there! When caring for pets in my home, safety is the top priority. I ensure that all potentially hazardous materials, such as cleaning supplies and medications, are stored securely out of reach. i will maintain their regular routine so they feel comfortable and secure.
“She did an absolutely fantastic job and we’ll definitely be rebooking. She was great with communication both before and during her stay and she took really stunning photos. I think we’ll have to get a few framed!”
“Gaby is a gem! She did SO well with our sweet senior pup, going above and beyond to give her lots of snuggles and attention, sending us frequent updates and cute photos, and taking great care of our house too. She cares deeply about animals and we are grateful she cares for ours too! She came for meet and greets, asked great questions, and noted down all the important details about our dog including medications etc.. We would strongly recommend her to anyone and can’t wait to have her back over to care for our dog again!”
About: From senior pups with special needs to energetic dogs and curious cats—I’ve cared for them all like family, with patience, love, and dependable attention every day. With a flexible part-time schedule, I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention, care, and companionship they deserve—whether it’s for a quick drop-in or an extended stay. I’m a dedicated and compassionate pet sitter with hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages, energy levels, and health needs. I’ve looked after my own senior dog with pancreatic disease and spent weeks caring for my aunt’s high-energy dog and curious cat. Whether it’s administering special meals, giving extra walks, or creating a calm environment, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved.
“Emily went over and beyond our expectations with our Remington. Updates and pictures throughout the weekend. Remington bonded with Emily very quickly and even slept with Emily! Would use her again for sure. Emily sent us a bonus surprise. A computation of all the pictures she took of our baby. Brought tears to me eyes as my girl is greying and I now have a beautiful video of her. Thank you Emily!!”
About: My whole life I've grown up with many dogs and I absolutely adore them!! I love walking them, playing with them, taking them out for car rides, etc. For a little over three years now I've been dogsitting and catsitting for my dad's friends. I've cared for cats previously, but I didn't have my very first cat until very recently, and I adore them as well! I'm more than willing to scoop litter, pick up after they potty, walk pets, and have a designated play time with them (: During the summer I work part time in the evenings and am not very busy outside of that, so I'm more than able to be with the pet during the day. At night, I usually work for about 5/6 hours, and am flexible enough to check on pets at night after work as well. In the fall when school starts, I will not be so available for check ins, but am able to spend nights with pets, and am flexible enough to do some dogwalking if necessary. When that time approaches, I will update my availability! Since cats don't usually require to be let outside, I'll be much more flexible with catsitting than dogsitting, but am still willing to do both! I usually work at my job 3-4 nights a week. In client's homes I make sure to spend a good amount of time with pets because I know they're missing their owners. I give them treats, pet them, cuddle with them, and walk them. Before I leave for anywhere I make sure that they have food, water, and they've used the potty, that way clients can be assured there will be no accidents in the home, and their pet is being properly cared for. Some cats prefer to spend time alone, and if that's the case, of course I have no problem leaving them be. As a pet owner myself, I can tell when sometimes the pets don't want to play and just wanna nap, or when they want to be left alone. Additionally, I make sure to take care of their house and clean up after myself! Beforehand, I'd love to meet with the client that way I can get to know everyone, and build some trust between me, the client, and the pet (:
“Zoe was amazing! Our German Shepherd is typically an anxious dog around new people but Zoe made him feel comfortable almost immediately. We felt very secure knowing that he was being well taken care of. Plus we got lots of pics and updates throughout our time away. We will definitely be having Zoe over again to watch Obi!”
“Xochitl was wonderful. Very friendly and helpful and our boys love her. I would whole heartedly recommend her and I will definitely be asking her back as well.”
“Cindy came a met Storm before her first sitting, was curious and asked lots of questions. Cindy took lots of photos for us which we loved. She followed our instructions and asked questions as needed. Storm was well adjusted when we came home and happy.”
“Michelle was the best sitter we could've asked for! We went on vacation to Europe for 2.5 weeks and she stayed in our home to look after our cat and dog. She took amazing care of both our pets and our home. We have a high maintenance (aka neurotic!) border collie and she handled all her quirks perfectly. We left quite detailed instructions and Michelle followed them to a tee. She was a really great communicator and kept us updated with info and pics every day (even taking into consideration the time difference!). We came home to two happy little pets and a spotless house. Can't recommend her enough!!!”
“Landon took great care of our 2 Goldens while we were away for almost a week! He stayed in our home and every thing was clean when we got home. He checked in with consistent updates and I know the girls had the best time. Thank you Landon!”
About: I have over 15 years of hands‑on experience caring for a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, horses, goats, donkeys, and other farm companions. My equine background is especially strong: I’ve been certified (through United States Pony Club) in lameness evaluation, illness recognition, safety and first aid, and proper handling and riding techniques. I am comfortable administering oral medications and following special diets. Whether your animals need daily care, specialized attention, or confident handling, they’ll be in capable, knowledgeable hands. I work from home full time doing project management for clinical trials. My schedule is very flexible so I can take many play, potty, and walk breaks. Your pet won't be waiting around for the love and attention they deserve! I care for your pets with the same attention, patience, and consistency that I would give my own. I make sure their routines stay familiar, such as feeding, playtime, medications, and comfort rituals, so they feel relaxed while you’re away. I also respect your home as part of their environment, keeping everything clean, organized, and exactly as you left it. My goal is for you to return to happy pets and a space that feels untouched.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Woodridge Terrace is $45
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Woodridge Terrace
My dog Ellie was not only safe, but she was happy, exercised, and emotionally fulfilled upon my arrival. Diana went above and beyond as she cared for my home and our baby. She sent regular updates which I was absolutely obsessed with. It is not easy leaving behind my home and fur baby, but I felt completely at ease during Diana’s entire stay in my home.
Wally had another great stay with Madison! I came home to a tired dog and clean house, which is always a great feeling after a long vacation. She sent daily updates and pictures, and took him for daily trail hikes or runs. Highly recommend, especially if you have a dog that needs quality exercise!
Abaigeal watched our puppy, senior dog, and cat for five days over a weekend holiday. She took our puppy on many walks and hikes, and sent really good photos of these excursions. Our puppy has trouble trusting new people, but she seemed to warm up to Abaigeal quickly for her! Our home was left in a great state and she made it easy for us to come home from traveling and relax.
Alexis was wonderful to work with! One of our dogs was a little hesitant around a stranger at first, but our other dog climbed right into her arms. 😂 She was quick to respond to messages, and genuinely seems like a very kind and caring person. We’d definitely recommend her!
Zoe is literally the best sitter we’ve had. We have an old dog with a lot of medical needs and she took SUCH good care of him. I almost don’t want to leave an honest review of how great she is because I don’t want her to get so booked up she doesn’t have time for us lol but she is truly amazing. I’m a cliche millennial dog mom with no kids who’s obsessed with her dog and Zoe is the only sitter I’ve met here who I trust will take care of my dog as much as I would.
We love Anna & Stephen so much! So glad we found them! They are so good to our animals. Most importantly all our animals love them too! They are very communicative everyday. When Anna & Stephen stay with our pups, we know they are safe and happy and in good hands.
Marianna was fantastic with our crew. She sent us daily updates with photos, came over beforehand to get to know everyone and their particular personalities, and we even came home to a freshly cleaned litter box. I couldn’t ask for a better experience and will absolutely be asking her to housesit for us again.
Kiley is wonderful! She took such good care of my dogs and home! I would definitely love to book with her again! She fed my dogs, just as instructed even with my husky who is a pretty picky eater. I felt so safe knowing they were in such good care and saw a few update photos while I was away. I couldn’t recommend her enough!
Tanya did an amazing job taking care of Finn, Greta, and our house! We loved getting photos from their excursions. Our dogs were happy to see us when we returned home, but clearly miss their hikes with Tanya! Tanya left our home clean, our dogs happy, and our plants watered. We really appreciated knowing all was in good hands while we were traveling!
Chloe took such good care of our 2 dogs while we were out of town for 4 days. This was our first time using Rover, so we were a little nervous, but Chloe quickly eased our nerves. She came over twice before we left town to interact with the dogs and ensure she had all the necessary information she needed. While we were gone she checked in daily and provided photos. Our dogs seemed right at home with her! We will definitely have Chloe watch our dogs again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Woodridge Terrace
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Woodridge Terrace on Rover is $43.29 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 2,854 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Woodridge Terrace. 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 Woodridge Terrace 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 Woodridge Terrace 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 Woodridge Terrace 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.
