My experience is as follows: - Managed several doggie daycares - Dog trainer at an animal shelter, comfortable with behavioral problems - Basic grooming (everything but a hair cut) - Dog training certified - Experienced with exotic pets - Flexible hours I have a very flexible schedule. I believe all pets require a lot of time, love, and care. And I am happy to give an endless amount to yours! Activities peovided during pet sitting are negotiated on a case - by - base basis. Every pet has different likes and needs and I do my best to be flexible to what this are! I solely work with animals! I have been working in animal welfare for almost 10 years and have two pups and a cat of my own that get lots of attention. Animals are my passion! I provide at home sitting, as my pups at home don't love extra company. Before I agree to any job, I always ask for a meet and greet to discuss expectations, behavioral needs, and most importantly to make sure your pet is comfortable with me!

“Amber did everything as we asked and expected. She provided top notch service with pictures and progress reports throughout the day. Very attentive to out four legged family members”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for multiple dogs of different breeds and personalities, including my four dogs at home — two dachshunds, a yorkie, and a schnauzer. Over the years, I’ve been responsible for many aspects of their daily care, from feeding and walking to bathing, grooming, and administering medication when needed. Caring for several dogs at once has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to recognize each dog’s unique needs and behavior. I genuinely love animals and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I also have experience helping family and friends with pet sitting, which has helped me become confident handling dogs in different environments and routines. My schedule is very flexible right now since I am home from college for the summer, so my availability is pretty wide open. I am available most days and can easily adjust to different pet care schedules, whether that’s daily visits, walks, feeding times, or overnight stays. The only times I am unavailable are Mondays and Wednesdays from 7:30–9:00 due to soccer practice. Outside of that, I have plenty of time and energy to dedicate to caring for pets and making sure they get the attention and care they need. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my everyday life. At home, I help take care of my four dogs and my cat by feeding them, walking them, bathing them, cleaning up after them, administering medication when needed, and making sure they always feel loved and comfortable. Having multiple pets has taught me how to manage different personalities, energy levels, and routines while still giving each pet the individual attention they deserve. I also have experience caring for other people’s pets in their homes through pet sitting for family and friends. I understand how important it is to keep pets comfortable in their own environment and to follow their normal routines as closely as possible. Whether it’s feeding schedules, playtime, walks, medication, or simply giving them company and affection, I make sure every pet feels safe, cared for, and happy while their owners are away

About: With over 20 years of experience caring for dogs, I bring more than just pet sitting—I bring genuine love, patience, and a deep understanding of canine behavior. Dogs in my care enjoy a safe, comfortable, home-like environment where they can relax, play, and feel like part of the family. I specialize in dog training and behavior and have experience raising puppies, caring for senior dogs, and working with trained service dogs. I understand that every dog has different needs, routines, personalities, and comfort levels. Your peace of mind matters too. I provide regular photo updates, check-in calls, and FaceTime when requested, so you can see your dog, stay connected, and feel confident they’re being well cared for while you’re away. My goal is simple: treat your dog like family and give you the peace of mind that they’re in good hands. As a retired Army veteran who works from home, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have the flexibility to give pets consistent attention throughout the day rather than leaving them alone for long periods. My routine includes regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, training, and plenty of companionship. I also make time to monitor each dog’s behavior and comfort level, especially with puppies, seniors, and dogs with specific routines or needs. Because I work from home, I’m able to provide a calm, home-like environment with frequent supervision and individualized care. I treat every dog in my home like family and make their safety, comfort, and happiness a priority. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, dog-friendly home environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. Dogs receive plenty of supervision, attention, playtime, walks, and affection throughout the day rather than being left alone for extended periods. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications when appropriate, exercise, training, and special care instructions. I’m especially comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with specific behavioral or training needs. I also understand how important it is for owners to feel connected while they’re away. I provide regular photo updates and am happy to offer check-in calls or FaceTime so you can see how your pet is doing. Whether your pet stays in my home or I care for them in yours, my goal is to create a safe, respectful, and stress-free experience for both you and your pet.
About: I’ve grown up taking care of pets, I treat every pet like they’re my own, with dependable care and a safe environment young or old. I’m only going to school two days a week and have an open schedule the rest of the week. Even while gone trusted parent home. I have a fenced in yard, three friendly dogs who are comfortable around other pets. Able to crate any pets if needed. Food, water, ect.
About: I’m a big dog lover and truly enjoy giving dogs all the love, attention, and care they deserve. I’m kind, patient, loving, and reliable, and I always make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I understand that every dog is different, so I’m happy to follow their individual routines and needs. I’m also very good at communicating and will keep you updated about how your dog is doing, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Most importantly, I’ll treat your dog like family! I work part-time and attend college, but I take time management very seriously and maintain a flexible schedule with plenty of free time. I also care for my own fur baby at home, which has helped me develop a strong sense of responsibility and consistency when it comes to pet care. I’m able to plan my schedule around the needs of the pets I care for and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I care for every pet with the same love, attention, and responsibility that I give my own fur baby. At home, I take her on walks every morning, make sure she always has fresh water, and give her treats and her favorite peanut butter. My family and I give her plenty of attention, including cuddles, affection, and companionship. She especially loves sunbathing and relaxing in her favorite chair with me! When caring for a client’s pet, I’m very open to learning and following their individual routine, preferences, and needs. I understand that every dog is different, and I want to make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, happy, and loved while in my care.
About: I’ve loved and been surrounded by animals since I was born! I’ve been volunteering at my grandmother’s no-kill animal shelter since I could walk, and it’s given me the skills and compassion I need to take care of your furry friends! Whether they’re puppies or seniors- I’m here to help! I’m currently studying at Texas A&M University and I just finished up my Freshman year, so my schedule is decently packed. However, I’m here to help you, so let me know if you need me at least two days in advance and we can work out a date that works for both of us! Gig ‘em 👍! I cannot keep your furry friends in my home, as I have two very large dogs that aren’t super fond of strangers! However, I am more than happy to take a trip wherever you need me to keep your pet company while you can’t!
“Destini was so great! She took good care of our pups while we were out and stayed in touch with us. No doubt they were a bit trying at times but she handled it like a pro! Definitely recommend!”
“Candace stayed at my house while I was gone for 4-5 days and took excellent care of my dog and my cat! Both of them are on meds and she was very willing & able to give them. My dog has anxiety, and she was so patient and good with him. He loved her! I highly recommend Candace and will definitely be booking her again in the future!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 443 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Woodrow. 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 Woodrow 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 Woodrow 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Woodrow 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
