“Valerie was amazing! First time utilizing Rover and we chose Valerie to watch our three kitties while out of town. She was reliable, caring and a joy to work with! Happy to have found her and would highly recommend for anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
About: I have had cats ever since I was born, so I have a lot of experience in being around and taking care of pets. One of my cats has had diabetes for the past 5 years, and requires two insulin shots a day, so I am well trained to give shots to your pet if needed. Additionally, I used to volunteer at the local animal shelter where I fed and walked the dogs and played with the cats. I am able to prioritize your pets with whatever schedule works best for you. I currently have availability at all times of the day, including weekends. I will happily spend as much quality time with your pets according to their needs. I especially love interacting with them just as you would, such as playing with them or going on walks around the neighborhood.
“We had a last-minute situation, and I really appreciate that Katie accepted the sit on short notice and showed up the very same night. She did a good job looking after our cats and made sure they were well fed and had fresh water, which gave us the peace of mind we needed. We truly appreciate the quick availability and the solid care provided during this emergency!”
“I've booked Kaylee many times and will continue to do so. Her communication is excellent--she responds promptly whether she can accept the job or not. The dogs seem to love her too! They look so happy in the pics she sends. Trustworthiness is everything.”
“Yeni accepted my request at last minute and took care of my westie allowing me to be at an event worry-free. She was on time, left everything as she found it and most importantly took great care of my dog. I will use her again but will provide her a little more notice than 3 days.”
“We had a last-minute emergency and needed a cat sitter on incredibly short notice, and Melissa absolutely saved the day! From the start, she was completely reliable and arrived right on time, which gave us immense peace of mind during a stressful situation. Our cats are used to having someone around all the time and can get quite lonely when left alone. They can also be a bit shy, but they must have felt comfortable with her instantly because they didn't hide at all! Instead, they came out to play, interact, and spend time with her. On top of taking excellent care of them, she went above and beyond by sweeping up the litter they tend to kick onto the floor. We couldn't be more grateful for her help and will absolutely be keeping Melissa in mind for our future sitting needs. Highly recommended!”
“Molly was wonderful caring for our sweet Theo and Sophia today . i would definitely call Molly back. It is such a joy when u know your fur babies are getting the extra love and care when u are not home and can't give it to them yourself. We came home to happy little pups.”
“Sherri was wonderful with our dogs while we vacationed in Mexico. She arrived on time, treated my pups as her own, and looked after all their needs. I will not hesitate hiring Sherri when we plan our next vacation. Thank you Sherri!”
“Cannot say enough positive things about Ailen!! She has helped us out with our boy Ziggy twice on short-notice, and has given him impeccable care each time. We will definitely reach out again!”
“Brian was amazing. The dogs loved having someone check on them. It gave me piece of mind. He was patient with me as I am new to rover. He came and met them before his scheduled time. I will book him again for certain”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who has been caring for pets since I was 10 years old. Over the years, I’ve helped neighbors, family members, and friends by pet sitting, dog walking, and providing loving care while they’re away. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for when you can’t be with them. I pride myself on being reliable, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs and personality. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their regular routine, I’m committed to making them feel comfortable and loved. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always strive to provide peace of mind for pet parents. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work a hybrid schedule, which gives me flexibility to provide pets with plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. On days I work from home (which is Monday, Thursday and Friday) I’m able to be present and attentive, and on office days (Tuesdays and Wednesday's) I plan my schedule carefully to ensure pets receive the care they need. As a pet owner myself, caring for animals is already a part of my everyday life. I treat my mini dachshund like he is my child. I enjoy spending time with pets, whether that’s going for walks, going to the park, playing, providing cuddles, or simply keeping them company. I also have a nanny cam that I check in on when I am away. I prioritize reliability, communication, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. As a mini dachshund owner, I know how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pet. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, love, and care while you’re away. I’ve cared for friends’ dogs in my home before and always work to make them feel comfortable by sticking to their normal routines as much as possible. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I tailor my care to each pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their usual schedule and any specific instructions to help their pet feel safe, comfortable, and stress free. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands.
“Tamara did a wonderful job taking care of our kitty! She was on time every single day, fed him, played with him and sent us fun updates and pictures everyday. We would definitely recommend her.”
“5 Star Review**** I had scheduled a sitter for 3 days. The sitter came the first day and never showed up the 2nd day. I reached out to Bryan and he came over within an hour of accepting the job. I can’t thank you enough Bryan!!”
About: I have taken care of many different types of animals, and I have over ten years of experience with pet sitting. My specialty is with cats as I own three of my own! I strive to make sure each of my clients receive dedicated, specialized care. I am comfortable with administering certain medicines and can follow instructions exactly - even the wild requests! I will provide pictures and updates with each visit and will help your fur baby receive the best care while you are away! I am working full time on week days, but I am always available after four to go visit your pets! I also have free availability on the weekends and will even stay overnight if needed! I will dedicate quality time with your pet and make sure they striving in their environment. I follow any instructions left and make sure they are engaged and happy when I leave!

Gina is the best! This is the second time I’ve used your services for my dog and she’s just wonderful. She sent me pictures of the dog and everything. And my dog is a senior dog who is deaf and almost blind so she’s a special-needs dog, but Jean handles her beautifully. ❤️🐾🐶❤️
Beatriz was amazing! She did such a great job with our Indie and sent the cutest pictures to us while we were away. I highly recommend Beatriz to anyone looking for someone to care for their babies. We will definitely be rebooking her next time we travel. Thank you Beatriz!!
This was the first time Valerie took care of my fur baby, but she came in as if it was the hundredth time. It was also my first extended time away in my new home and state, so, I was very skittish about leaving. However, my shy kitty was comfortable almost immediately and I came home to a happy boy. I will absolutely welcome Valerie back for future trips.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Woodstock on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 7,109 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Woodstock. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Woodstock stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Woodstock. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 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.
