“We have had a wonderful experience with Giuliana! She was patient, understanding, and did an amazing job caring for our dog, who has some behavioral challenges. We would absolutely recommend her and look forward to working with her again!”
“Stacey is great with our two dogs - they love her! She has been a house sitter for us multiple times and we will continue to book her when we need someone to care for them. She is always punctual and leaves the house cleaner than she finds it. Thank you Stacey!”
“Sara is amazing! She took such loving care of our two dogs and the house as well. We were able to enjoy our time away with no worries at all! She was great about keeping us updated with details and photos, and really went above and beyond all our expectations. She’s the best!”
“Grey was fantastic with my older dog, Luna. I came home to a happy, relaxed dog. He was incredibly communicative and sent me wonderful updates and pictures throughout my trip. I will definitely rebook with him!!”
“I could not have asked for a more caring and loving individual to watch my two darling Shih Tzus when I was away. On the meet and greet, Megan took meticulous notes and it was clear how much she loves animals. While I was away, she sent many notes and photos. Her questions showed me how well-cared for my babies were and I could rest easy knowing that Megan was there. I feel so lucky to have found her! Not only did she take excellent care of Moxie and Tonks, but she left my apartment better than she found it! Amazing!”
“I know Levon works mostly with dogs and I was very happy he was available on short notice (I had another rover sitter cancel within a week of my trip) to watch my sweet Anna. She can be shy and she was comfortable with Levon and he was able to give her the medication she needs. He was responsive and kept me updated. I would book with him again!”
“Laura is a doglover, my boxer likes her very much. She took him to his favorite dogpark to meet his friends too. Laura is very responsible and is very friendly to work with. Thanks Laura.”
“Hannah was very communicative and seemed to have a deep care for all of my animals. I received regular updates, as well as updates when anything unusual occurred (which only happened once, thankfully!). I felt secure knowing my animals were being looked after by Hannah.”
About: With 5+ years of veterinary, boarding, dog walking, pet sitting, and dog park management experience, taking care of animals is simply second nature! I know that our animals need lots of love, care and am ready to treat your animals as if they were my own! A little bit about myself, I have a Golden Retriever and a Boxer - a spunky little group. I have worked with a variety of breeds and know a lot about the canine world. Also, I know how important it is that your pet is cared for properly. I would love to take care of your pet and I cannot wait to hear from you. Feel free to send me any questions and I would be more than happy to answer them. (: I currently have a very flexible schedule and can drop in, stay or walk your furry friend at any time of the day and week! I have been trained in a veterinarian office in handling and have been dog sitting/walking since 2013. I’d love to treat your fur baby with the upmost safety and care.
“Caitlin was wonderful. She was on time for a meet and greet, and after going over everything, we booked her for a vacation coming up. At the last minute, we needed Caitlin to spend the evening with Luna because our dog was adjusting to losing her companion and changing locations, and we were going out with friends all day and then again all evening. Luna was very chill when we got home late. I look forward to a stress-free vacation knowing that Luna is in good hands with Caitlin.”
“Our dogs and cats were so happy with Laina. She left our home in great shape after staying with them for 4 nights, and communicated any questions or issues (which were minimal, because our animals are anxious!) quickly and professionally. We will definitely rebook for future petsitting. Thank you, Laina!”
“Melissa was great at watching Luna! She really made sure to follow our instructions for Luna and still made sure to spend quality time with her. I felt very safe having her watch Luna and got updates from her about how she was doing.”
“Nate was great with my dogs! He stayed in touch without overwhelming me with texts and photos which is what I prefer. He was really attentive with my 3 dogs and I came home to tired pups which is always a huge bonus after a business trip. I hope he will be available next time I need a sitter because he’s so nice and left the house very clean.”
“James is a joy. He took great care of the dogs and our home. We came home to a clean and tidy home. He took care of everything we had asked him to do and would highly recommend him again”
About: I have had animals my whole life, ranging from cats, dogs, others! I have had a pet sitting job since May 2025 for a lovely family, providing for their two dogs, one cat. I feed & water pets as owners demand, clean up pets messes and my own. Take dogs outside ranging from 4-5 times a day or as needed. I provide for pets in the comfort of your own home. Of course I play with pets all day! I would love to take care of your fur babies as my own! 💕 As of right now I do not have a day to day job, so i’m very flexible with my schedule. I can provide housesitting and pet sitting, while you are working, going out of town or just for you’re convenience! I only care for pets in the comfort of your own home, I have animals myself and I wouldn’t want to make you’re pets uncomfortable!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Woodside Hills
Skye was amazing! This was the first time I left the boys overnight with someone. The photos, updates and mindful training /management of our 2 year old Australian Kettle dog was key. Skye even celebrated our 14 year old beagle’s birthday while we were away! Thank you !
Mellisa was wonderful with my senior dog who had some special needs. She gave frequently updates and pictures to let me know how he was doing. She thoughtfully brought in the mail and brought the trash dumpster back from the road without being asked to. My dog was well cared for and house in good order when I returned. I would welcome her back again.
Gabe was wonderful with my dogs! It was my first time using Rover, as well as my first time leaving them alone in the home. Gabe came & did a pre-meeting with me & the pups before the stay which was so nice. While he stayed with my dogs, he was very flexible & communicative, shared pictures of them & left my home in wonderful condition. I would recommend him over & over!
5 stars for Sara — she went truly above and beyond during our 7 days away. She carefully gave medications, walked our puppy and 6-year-old separately exactly as requested, and even made extra meetups beforehand to help everyone feel comfortable. We were able to fully relax and enjoy traveling knowing our dogs and home were in such caring, capable hands. Can’t recommend her enough!
Thora took to Kara right away at the meet & greet, and Kara was willing to brave a potential snow and ice storm while we were away. She checked in a couple of times a day with details and photos, and it gave us peace to know that Thora was getting lots of love and play. The house was very tidy when we returned.
This was my second time with Ela and I’m inviting her to sit again next week! She is very easy to communicate with, very wise and intuitive with my animals. She’s clean (leaves everything exactly how I left it) and even washes her bedding which helps me out a lot! I’ve had nearly a hundred sitters over the last few years and she is one of the best. I wish I could take her to California with me when I move back next year!
Elijah took great care of our little buddy and our home while we were away. He showed up on time and had great communication throughout. We appreciated the periodic photo updates! Our mail and trash was taken care of and the house was left clean and tidy. We look forward to having Elijah back for our next trip and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend his help to anyone.
Kyla was absolutely wonderful with our beloved Evie over the weekend! From the moment we met her, she was professional, warm, and clearly cared deeply about making Evie feel comfortable and happy. She looked after our pup as if she were her own, sending us regular updates and photos of all their fun adventures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She even went the extra mile and watered our house plants! We couldn’t recommend Kyla highly enough and are excited to continue getting to know her. Truly a five-star experience!

FAQs for House Sitting - Woodside Hills
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Woodside Hills on Rover is $58.83 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 656 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Woodside Hills. 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 Woodside Hills 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 Woodside Hills 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 Woodside Hills 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Woodside Hills. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
