“Mikki was the best! Our pets were well taken care of, our house was cleaner than we left it, and we received communication and updates daily. Absolutely would recommend and will book with again!”

“Elaina was great, it was like my dog wasn’t ready for her to leave!! Amazing first experience with Rover and Elaina. I highly recommend her, she was so patient and loving with my high energy frenchie.”
About: I know that leaving your pet in someone else's care is a big deal — that's why I treat every visit like I'm looking after my own. I bring over two decades of experience being dependable and detail-oriented (my background is in customer service and management), so you can count on me to follow your instructions exactly, show up on time, and communicate clearly throughout. Whether it's feeding schedules, medication, potty breaks, or just extra cuddle time, I'll keep your pet's routine as close to normal as possible while you're away. I send photo updates every visit so you can see for yourself that everything's going smoothly. Between a full-time job and a quiet household of just me, I have reliable evenings (especially weekends!) free for visits, with your pet getting my full attention. I am employed full time, Monday through Friday 8-5, but no kids or pets of my own currently. I am free after 5pm on weeknights to make sure your pet gets a much need potty break, a delicious meal, and attention filled cuddles. Being a little older means my weekends are much tamer than they used to be - I'm happy to fill them with care for your pup! The comfort of your pet is very important to me. I don't board or care for pets in my own home — I'd much rather they stay in the environment they know best, surrounded by their own smells, sounds, and routine. Less stress for them, and less disruption for you. While I'm in your home, I treat it with the same care and respect I'd want for my own — doors locked, alarms set, mail brought in, and everything left exactly as I found it. You can trust that your pet and your space are both in good hands.
About: I have worked with a variety of different animals my entire life large and small with a variety of different needs. I look to provide the care that you expect for your fur babies. I currently own my own business so it allows me to have a flexible schedule in being able to help out others. My schedule allows me to be there when I am most needed. Creating a safe enviroment and fostering trust is important to me as it can help build a working relationship with others and make sure you are feeling secure when finding a pet sitter.
“Great interaction and my dog wasn’t even mad at me when I returned. Usually he turns his back to me after I’ve been gone a few days (while sitting on my feet so I can’t leave again). Jayla must have kept him happy because he is relaxed and calm.”
About: As a proud dog and cat mom, I know firsthand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your fur babies! With over 5 years of pet care experience, I’ve developed a genuine love for animals and understand that every pet has its own personality, needs, and routine. I currently have a dog named Patience and a cat named Salem, so I’m familiar with caring for pets with different personalities and needs. From daily walks and playtime to feeding, cleaning, and providing lots of love and attention, I enjoy making sure animals feel happy, safe, and comfortable. What sets me apart is my patience, attention to detail, and commitment to treating every pet like my own. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful, so I prioritize communication, following instructions, and providing updates and pictures for peace of mind. Whether your pet loves outdoor adventures, playing with toys, or simply cuddling on the couch, I’ll make sure they receive the attention and care they deserve! Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine as a dog and cat mom! I work full-time in management, which has helped me develop strong time-management and organizational skills. I enjoy spending my free time caring for animals, whether that’s going for walks, enjoying playtime, or simply providing companionship and attention. My availability varies depending on my work schedule, but I plan ahead to ensure every pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. I am happy to coordinate with pet parents to discuss their pets’ routines and determine the best arrangements. I understand the importance of consistency, especially when pets are away from their owners, and I always strive to make their experience as comfortable and stress-free as possible! Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort will always be my top priorities! As a pet owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your fur baby in someone else’s care. I believe in creating a calm, loving, and safe environment where pets feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions when applicable, and any special requests provided by pet parents. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space, maintain cleanliness, and do my best to keep their pet’s daily routine as consistent as possible. I also believe communication is key! I’m happy to send pictures, videos, and updates throughout each visit so you always know how your pet is doing. Every animal is different, and I take the time to learn their personality, preferences, and boundaries. My goal is to provide the same level of love, patience, and attention that I would want someone to give my own pets!
About: I have experience with Dogs, cats, ducks, chickens, pigs and horses. I love taking care of all animals! I especially enjoy taking care of dogs because I want a dog one day! I work full time M-F but I work from anywhere and everywhere so travel is no problem for me! I can work sat & sun but I prefer to keep my weekends for personal time! I have two cats currently, I live in a nice wooded area with a big backyard, with easy access to walkable neighborhood and nature trails. I treat all my clients spaces as if they were my own.
About: Hey there! We are Kelbie & Seth! We have been pet sitting for over 9 years. While I am finishing my masters program I will be home for full time pet sitting availability! We have 4 highly trained pets of our own who love to make friends. As a former kennel attendant I was trained in safe techniques to get your furbaby to eat if they aren't interested, proper leashing, basic first aid, and how to administer all forms of medication for both cats & dogs. Our 2 friendly border collies love to tagalong to house sittings when allowed, this also allows both Seth & I to come stay. Having such smart dogs, we are also skilled in some dog & trick training. We have taught our boys all that they know & Dexter has received his Novice Trick Title. We also have 2 cats who are very dog friendly so just let us know if your dog gets along with cats. I will be working from home on our businesses as I finish up my master's so when I'm not crafting, you'll catch us cuddled up on the couch or outside playing! Unfortunately our rental got sold in Murfreesboro so we are now living back with family in White House & will primarily be availbile for house sitting, drop ins, and walking for Sumner & Robertson County! We try our best to stick to your fur babies normal routine! Rather they need medicine, an extra walk, have high energy, or are a senior, you can ensure they will be in loving care with us! We are also insured professionals.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Woods is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $58 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 301 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Woods. 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 Woods 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 Woods 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 Woods 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Woods. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
