“Ashley is always so courteous and patient with me and my time. She took great care of Tokyo and she’s very responsive to what I need. I came home and my dog looked like he was well taken care of while I was away. Thank you Ashley. I will be booking more experiences with her. 🥰”
“Shannon was fantastic. She saved us from a last minute cancellation, and was a pleasure to work with. She looked after our small clan of pets: Samus the skiddish Aussie Shepherd, Oscar the grouchy Siamese & Yoshi the timid tabby point, over the weekend. Shannon was patient with Samus, as it takes her a bit to warm up to new folks. It was clear that Shannon really enjoys being around animals and took great care of our pets. She sent videos of playtime with the dog and told us how the cats absolutely loved her. Would highly recommend, and she will be our first call on our next get-away.”
“Stephen was perfect my girls. I appreciate that he was available at late notice and was so accommodating. Lizzie and JuneBug warmed up to him immediately. I am looking forward to using Stephen again.”
“Mikayla was fantastic! I was immediately put at ease during our meet and greet, and while we were gone she was so communicative and sent great pictures each day. Our big cat Sampson loved her and she even managed to win over our super shy little one, Ann Perkins. We will definitely book with her again.”
“Savannah is an absolute gem! She recently took care of our 3 pups and our home while we spent a week at the beach, and she went above and beyond! She made sure we were updated on how the pups were doing and actively looked for ways to help us around our home to make our return so much easier. Our pups were so happy when we came home, we could tell they received so much TLC. Highly recommend!”
“Good job at getting Lucas to trust you. He’s a Covid kitty. Like many pets who were only exposed to their owners during Covid, he does not trust easily. But you continued to work with him. Good work. Thanks for house sitting and feeding Lucas.”
“Our girls were really drawn to Rammiyah, esp the shy one. They appeared well and the house in order. I would have liked more pictures but communication was good. Definitely would rehire her!”
“We had the pleasure of having Anna take care of Philip while we were away, and she did an outstanding job. She took wonderful care of him, and we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We came back to a spotless home just as we left it, and most importantly, Philip was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend her!”
“Hannah is amazing! She is very communicative and put all of our crew at easy. She sends plenty of updates and pictures of our doofuses chilling and playing and even some funny face candids. Would 100% recommend for dogs AND cats...because we have plenty of both and she takes good care of them.”
About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages and sizes—from energetic puppies who need structure and playtime, to senior dogs who require patience, gentle handling, and extra attention. I’m experienced with routine walks, feeding schedules, giving medications, and making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and cared for. What sets me apart is my commitment to treating each pet like my own, ensuring they feel comfortable and happy while you’re away. Pet care fits seamlessly into my weekly routine. I keep a flexible schedule that allows me to be available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits. Whether it’s a midday walk, overnight sitting, or extended stays, I make sure your pet’s needs are prioritized and consistently met. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. In your home, I follow your routines and instructions closely so your pet feels secure in their familiar environment. When hosting, I provide a clean, calm, and pet-friendly space with plenty of love, supervision, and playtime. I believe communication builds trust, so I’ll send regular updates and photos so you know your pet is not just safe, but thriving.
“Ashley was such a help when we had to change our Labor Day plans at the last minute! Our pups loved snuggling with her and she even managed medications and walking the two of them.”
About: I have been pet sitting since I was 18. It started out as me needing extra money for college and eventually I saw a need for pet sitting services. I do have a pup of my own (he is 3) and a little boy. Rest assured your pup/cat will be in great hands. 🐶 I currently work remotely in tech which allows me the flexibility to tend to your baby/babies 24/7. I do go to the gym in the morning for about an hour and sometimes have to run to Target for a pick-up order, so that is the only time they will be left alone. I do not keep anyone’s dog/cat caged unless otherwise directed to do so. I am available for overnight/daytime services. I am here to meet your need(s). Multiple pets accepted. TIA 🐶 🐱 I have a fenced backyard, so our furry friends are free to roam around as they please. You can rest assured that your pet will be fed, at least twice a day (morning & night) unless on a specific diet/regimen that will be followed to a T and let out at least every 1-2 hours. I do have bowls/toys that your baby can play with, you would just need to provide their food.
“Caitlin was above and beyond an amazing sitter for my boy Prawn! She stepped in on short notice when I had to leave for a family emergency and took great care of him. I'll definitely be reaching out to her again for future visits and I can see Prawn really enjoyed her company as well!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets and animals for an incredibly long time. Since I was a child, even. I grew up with dogs and cats. All of my friends ask me to petsit for them because I am so good at it. I’m perceptive, can multitask very well, and caring. I’m also very good at following directions to a T. I love animals, and naturally, my own heart yearns to protect animals to keep them safe and happy. Sitting does this for me, and I am grateful for this. I can take care of all types of dog breeds and cat breeds. Including fish, reptiles, and rodents. Even the “scarier ones”, like spiders or snakes. I’m currently working by picking up random jobs when I am available. And so, I can truly choose whenever to work. My availability is incredibly flexible. My availability is literally all the time. Depending on the house I’m sitting at, I’ll improvise. But, if I do notice that something needs to be done or brought in order to keep those pets safe and sound, I will absolutely go grab it or have it delivered so I can find a solution.
About: I got my first dog at the age of 5 and my love for pets only grew from there. I've worked as a volunteer at a rescue as well as a professional Kennel Technician. I'm the person who answers "both" to the question "are you a dog or a cat person?" Unlike apartment complexes, I don't have any breed restrictions. In fact, I adore bully breeds and rescued my own pit mix. I'm also experienced with both puppies and kittens so I have no age restrictions either. I would be happy to set up a meet & greet prior to a booking. Please let me know if you have any questions and I'd be happy to answer them! I have open availability at the moment so I can spend as much time as you want with your pets and would love an excuse to leave my apartment. I am comfortable with every type of harness and leash and can crate your pet if necessary. I understand that all pets have boundaries and will respect those boundaries as I learn them. Your pet's trust is very important to me and I will work hard to earn it. I'm more than happy to set up a meet & greet to introduce myself to them.
“She was amazing will definitely book again! She always kept the updates coming where I didn’t have to wonder about anything with my dogs. & also my very skittish shy-like dog actually was opening up and got along with her as well!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and temperaments and currently raise both a senior dog and a puppy, so I understand the different needs each stage requires. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, medication (if needed), walks, crate training, and providing a calm, loving environment. I treat every pet like my own and prioritize safety, communication, and reliability. I have a flexible schedule and prioritize pet care daily since I have dogs of my own. I’m available for weekday mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends for walks or drop-ins. I can also provide boarding whenever it is needed. I provide a structured, safe, and attentive environment. My home has a fully fenced yard and two well-socialized dogs. I supervise all playtime, separate pets when necessary, and follow feeding, medication, and exercise routines carefully. Cleanliness, security, and communication are extremely important to me, and I provide regular updates with photos for peace of mind.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Woodstream is $39 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $35 and $45 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Woodstream 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 Woodstream 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 Woodstream 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
