“Kalie is awesome and did such a great job with our cats. She is sweet, timely, and attentive to details. She was patient with me as my schedule changed. 10/10 I recommend her!”
“Chloe is amazing. Not only is she communicative but so kind! She was great for our meet and greet but she clearly loved on my girl and gave her so much attention. I will be using her again!!”
About: I am a previous dog owner and have the biggest heart when it comes to animals!! I’m great with bath time and training. I love the outdoors and have no problem spending plenty of time outside running around playing catch! There is a dog park in my neighborhood and plenty of places in the area if the dog isn’t use to other animals. I live 10 minutes from river walk and other great walking trails! I also have a nice size patio for sun bathing. I use to work at a dog kennel so I have experience working with every size dog from a chihuahua to an English mastiff. Keep me in mind for all of your dog walking and over night stays! Thank you!
About: My name is Conner and I’m a college student at Winthrop University and a lifelong animal lover! caring for animals has always been a big part of my life, whether that meant helping my mom rescue and care for stray cats or looking after family pets over the years. More recently, I’ve been helping take care of my girlfriend’s dog, who has an autoimmune disease and requires extra attention, patience, and consistency with medications and daily routines. I’m a firm believer that every pet deserves personalized care and should be treated with as much love as I would give my own. Whether your pet needs a walk to burn off some energy, a drop-in-visit while you're away, or someone dependable to keep them company in the comfort of their own home, in your guy!! I’m currently a full time college student so I’m free all summer and I would be very flexible around my school schedule in the Fall and Spring! I am very confident in my ability to make friends with every pet! I’m very active and love a nice long walk but I’m also happy to chill on the couch or floor if you have a more laid back pet!
“Alyssa was great to work with. I had something last minute pop up and needed someone to drop in for my cat and she answered right away. It's always a little nerve-racking having someone watch your pet, but he couldn't have been in better hands. Very responsive throughout and was able to administer his medicine as well. I would 100% book with Alyssa again in the future!”
About: Hi! Thank you so much for looking at my site. I’ve been pet sitting for over six years. I’m home full time, provide doggy daycare and overnight boarding. The dogs we watch, are truly, part of our family we have over 25 current clients, who have been with us for at least 3yrs, and some six. They truly get excited when they come for visits and see the friends they’ve known for years. The families know each other, and love the other dogs. It’s the relationship with the dogs, and they’re families, that is my favorite part of sitting. I’ve been so lucky to meet incredible families, who’ve become a wonderful part of my life. You’re pet will get lots of attention, outside time in a reserve behind my home, and play time. I’d love to hear from you and meet your sweet friend. Thank you! I’m home full time. This is what I love to do, and your pets needs, and your schedule come first. I’m also incredibly flexible with drop off and pick up times. We have a very clean, dog centered home. The dogs that come here, are very friendly. I will make sure your dog/fur baby (not everyone likes it when I say furbaby😉) has help adjusting to new home, and other dogs, and feels comfortable. Especially if they are shy or anxious. We want them to feel vey comfortable.
“Gabriella went above and beyond when dropping in to take care of our dog. We appreciated her care and frequent communication. Will definitely ask her to help with our pup again.”
“Katie has gone above and beyond in taking great care of our 3 pups. The pups look so happy in the daily photos she sends. It makes it easier to get through my work day knowing they are well taken care of.”
About: I have been taking care of cats and dogs since I was a freshmen in high school. I love it so much and have made many genuine connections with the families and the animals. I’m currently enrolled at Winthrop University and have plenty of free time to come spend time with the cat or dog and can stay with them for multiple hours a day I feel like it’s very important to make the pet feel safe and loved even when someone they don’t know is in their house. So I always try to stick to the same routine they would have if the owners were home!
About: I have been in the vet field for over 2 years. I have experience with many pet personalities and giving different types of medications. I love being able to help people with their fur babies I am working full time at a school district. So I can really only do after 3:30pm M-F. And am available for most weekends and school holidays I do not have any pets in my home currently.

About: I've had animals my entire life! From nursing strays as a kiddo to now as an adult fostering, TNR work. Helping with rehomeing or adoptions. I am comfortable with the difficult situations and animals just as much as I am with the happy ones. I'm a RN by trade but only work 3 days a week (every weekend) during the week I am at home with my own fur babies and have plenty of time to share with your pets! I care for each pet differently as I do my patients in the hospital. Every animal is different and I base how I interact off of their specific needs. I'm patient with the more timid or stubborn guys who may require a little more time to do something. A super friendly energetic pet may need a little more supervision over the older or maybe more calm pet. I'm comfortable and able to being adaptable based off your pets specific needs

About: I grew up with dogs and have cared for them my entire life. I’ve fostered dogs, cared for multiple dogs at once (including having three at the same time), and have years of experience pet sitting for family and friends. I also had a senior dog who I lovingly cared for until she passed at age 18, which gave me experience with older dogs, patience, and attentive care. I’m comfortable with different personalities, routines, and needs, and I always treat pets as if they’re my own. I work Monday-Friday from 7am-2pm, so I’m available for pet care in the afternoons, evenings, and nights during the week. I’m also available on weekends and happy to provide care, walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays depending on your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special instructions provided. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection, while also respecting their comfort level and personality. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for.

“Shakoya was absolutely amazing with my fur baby. She was very responsive, prompt, professional and kept me updated with every single visit. Highly recommend her, she was phenomenal.”
“Casey was awesome with our dogs! She stopped by our house while we were gone for a short trip to let out our 2 pups. Casey even got one of our dogs that is not very trusting of new people to be comfortable around her. We highly recommend Casey for your next pet sitting!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Woodvale
Ben is the best. He is super flexible and always sends us the cutest photos of our crew while we’re away. Ben is also a person that really understands and considers animal behaviors - he requested to visit us again before we left to make sure our shepherd mix would remember him. And of course, she did! :) thanks for your help and consideration for our crew, Ben!
Michael was amazing and flexible. He bounded with our sweet boy Jackson!! We were updated and we had full confidence that Michael had everything under control. Michael is great with big dogs and has a great touch with them. We definitely will be using Michael again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Woodvale is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 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 4,552 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Woodvale. 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 Woodvale. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
