“Lisa is awesome!! She was more than accommodating and loved on our dogs while we were gone & sent frequent updates with pics on how they were doing. We will definitely use Lisa again and I know our dogs would love seeing her too!”
“Callie was great with communication and solved a problem with a food mixup to make sure our dogs were taken care of. She is definitely someone I recommend for drop in support. Thanks Callie!”
“I just met Scott for the first time today. There was a possibility I would have to go out of town to the hospital in the next day or two. I have one cat sitter but I need additional one. I immediately felt at ease with him. He carried some heavy cat litter down my steps into my basement and did the litter boxes. He's very kind and although my cats really didn't meet him today I feel very comfortable in leaving him his care.”

About: I’ve cared for animals for many years and have experience with dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m comfortable providing everything from walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention to bathing, brushing, and basic grooming when needed. I also enjoy working with puppies and helping reinforce potty training, routines, and good habits. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. Whether your pet loves being active and playing, going on walks, or simply cuddling and relaxing, I’m happy to adjust their care to what makes them happiest. I treat every pet in my care with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own pets. I’m available as needed for any pet sitting. If you have a specific schedule that is needed, I’m more than willing to abide by it. I currently have dogs in my own home and have had a cat. I have picked up some of my clients animals from their home to watch them at my house, as well as going to their house and caring for them in the comfort of their own home. I love going on walks and cuddling with all pets.
“I feel confident and happy to leave my fur boys with Constance! She keeps me updated on their well being with funny and long notes! I would absolutely recommend Constance!”
“Lisa took great care of our Boston terriers. She is dependable and very communicative. We prefer to keep our dogs at home versus boarding so the drop in visits worked out great. Definitely plan on rebooking with Lisa in the future.”
About: I treat every dog like family. With experience in both puppy training and senior dog care, I understand the unique needs of dogs at every life stage. Whether its providing gentle, attentive care to older dogs with mobility or medication needs, I bring patience, love, and reliability to every visit. I'm also comfortable with administering meds, following special diets, and offering enrichment activities to keep dogs happy and healthy while you're away. As a part-time worker and nursing student, I’ve built a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care. Caring for animals is not only a great balance to my busy routine it’s something I genuinely love. Whether it’s early morning walks, afternoon check-ins, or weekend stays, I make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need. My background in nursing also helps me stay calm, detail-oriented, and attentive to each pet’s health and behavior. In my client’s home, I aim to keep pets comfortable by following their usual routine as closely as possible. I make sure they get plenty of love, exercise, and attention whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, or just relaxing together. I’m respectful of your space and always leave it clean and tidy. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment where they can feel safe and relaxed. I limit the number of pets I care for at once to ensure each one gets personalized attention. I keep a consistent schedule, maintain a clean space, and give pets lots of affection and enrichment throughout the day.

About: I am new to pet sitting but I love animals and pets! I grew up having a lot of dogs in my house and an very rapidly with taking care off your pet. I am able to work with all types of dogs from puppies to seniors and big to small. I currently work part time so my days and hours are pretty flexible. I am a college student looking to make some extra money for school but also enjoy hanging out with fur babies. I am very flexible with what owners can accommodate wether if ur dogs needs to be taken out on a leash or if you have a fenced property.
About: 11 years of family-trusted care meets a lifetime of dog devotion. Having grown up surrounded by pups, I truly speak the language. I’m currently a proud "Big Dog" parent to a 5 and 2-year-old, so I’m never intimidated by size or energy. From heavy-duty playtime to long neighborhood treks, I have the experience and the energy to keep your pups happy and tired. Because I work from home two days a week, your dog will have constant companionship and frequent potty breaks. On my office days, I’m lucky enough to have flexibility to stop by during my lunch hour for check-ins and mid-day stretches. I’m home by 4:00 PM every day—which means afternoons are dedicated to long walks and heavy-duty playtime. Since my weekends are currently wide open, I’m available for full-day adventures or extra snuggles, ensuring your pup never feels lonely while you’re away. I specialize in bringing the 'staycation' to your dog’s natural environment. Having raised two large dogs of my own, I am fully comfortable managing a household with big personalities and high energy. I respect your home and follow your rules to the letter—whether that’s strict feeding times, specific 'off-limits' furniture, or leash-training routines. My schedule allows for a seamless transition: I provide mid-day check-ins on office days and full-time companionship when working from home. Because I’m through with work by 4:00 PM and have wide-open weekends, your pup will never be left waiting for their next adventure. My goal is to keep your dog’s routine identical to when you’re home, ensuring they stay tired, happy, and stress-free.

I make sure they’re comfortable, safe, fed, exercised, and getting plenty of attention. In a client’s home, I’ll follow their normal routine and any specific instructions they leave me. I’m happy to send updates and pictures so you know your pet is doing well.
“Brie came through in a real pinch for me - I didn't book anyone to take care of the herd until I was already on vacation. Oops. The animals were taking care of and happy when I returned - and I had peace of mind that all was good back at home!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Woodsdale
Ashley is exactly what every pet owner hopes for when leaving pets behind to travel. I had a trip out west that Ashley kindly accepted with a fairly short notice on my part. She was happy to visit our home for a meet-and-greet in advance, which made me feel much less anxious. In a word, Ashley is wonderful! Her strengths include excellent communication with quick responses, prompt effort, highly-attentive, and very loving/patient toward animals. I highly recommend her and can't wait to have her back.
We are so lucky to have Rachelle. She’s incredibly dedicated and really takes the time to focus on our crazy puppy. She makes sure he gets all his play time and potty breaks, and works on his training also. She always keeps us in the loop, makes sure we are on the same page with routine/training and sends updates everyday. We would 100% recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Woodsdale is $15 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $8 and $21 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 2,726 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Woodsdale. 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 Woodsdale. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
