About: I’ve been caring for pets ever since I was a kid. I currently manage a dog/cat boarding facility. I’ve been working there for about 5 years and have tons of experience. My family and friends always rely on me for my help. Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life! I work with animals daily and have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I build pet care into my routine by making time for walks, feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. When pets stay in my home, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and right at home! 🐾 I provide plenty of love, attention, playtime, walks, potty breaks, and opportunities to relax. I do my best to keep their routine as close to normal as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, and any special care instructions. I love making sure every pet gets one-on-one attention, whether that’s playing outside, going for walks, getting extra cuddles, or simply lounging around. I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness and treat every pet as if they were my own. ❤️

About: Yo! I'm Alex and I'm 20 years old. I don't have to much experience with dogs but I'm a pretty chill dude. I spend most of my days at home making smooth music full-time and id love to watch some dogs because as a kid I never really had a dog but always wanted one. My pet care experience is pretty much down to watching my sisters cat which I did for a whole year. I only recently started watching a dog and it was such a great experience that it made me really want to watch more dogs during the time that i have. That experience really made me love dogs a lot. Thanks for reading my about me. Stay blessed and have a great day today. As a work-from-home audio engineer, my flexible schedule allows me to give pets the attention and care they need throughout the day. Your furry friend will always have company! I provide a safe and fun environment for pets in my home, with a fenced yard for playtime, frequent walks for exercise, and plenty of space in my large basement. I also have a cozy room for your pet to relax and feel at home!

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was little. I can really connect with them easily! It makes me happy that your pets are taken care of! Anytime, just let me know! I take time in my schedule to go to the gym as well, but that can be moved around if anything pops up! I have a fenced yard, so for my dogs I usually get toys out and play with them for a good bit. Maybe throw in some training treats for new skills. I can walk your pets, and learn what they love doing in your home! Even if that means cuddle time too!

We had a great experience with our new dog sitter, Sonya! She did a wonderful job taking care of our dog, making sure he was fed, walked and given plenty of attention and playtime. It was such a relief knowing he was in good hands while we were away. She was reliable, caring and went above and beyond. Thank you, Sonya!

Carmen was amazing to work with! She responded to my last minute emergency request, followed my care directions perfectly and adjusted as needed based on some snafus on my part rushing out that morning. My boy absolutely adored her! Highly recommend Carmen as a care giver and would use her again. She is a gem!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Woodsboro

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Woodsboro is $16 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $22 per visit. 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 3,316 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Woodsboro. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Woodsboro. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.

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.
