“Abbey did a great job with my two dogs when I went on an overnight trip. She had great communication and sent me some cute pictures of them. I don’t often leave them with someone they don’t know, but Abbey was splendid and I would definitely book her again!”
“Mirabella did an amazing job watching Nala and Nash! She is reliable, communicative, and sweet. Our dogs were looking for her when we got home and missed her already. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Five Stars!!”
“Once again Kari and Clint did a very good job. We have a big active dog and he loves her. He was well cared for. Besides our pup, she took good care of nine hens in the barn! We live rurally.. While we were away, we had an unexpected, early snowstorm and freezing temps. She handled everything in stride. She had to wait until we had the driveway plowed. Hens need water. Ice won’t do! She managed to get their heated water dish hooked up.. Not everyone has the confidence and skill to tackle this, but she did it! We returned home to a clean house! And stocked fridge. She did an outstanding job !”
“Thank you SO much for taking such good care of my fur babies! I could tell they all loved you so much. Jasmine not only took great care of my pets, but she also cleaned my carpets afterwards, leaving my house smelling and looking fresh and clean!! I would recommend her to anyone!”
“I just hired Zoe for the first time and she did an awesome job. I have a large Bernese Mountain dog and three cats, a handful. Zoe kept everyone happy while I was on my work trip. My dog used to be pretty stressed when I would return from trips, but with Zoe she was calm and happy when I got back. I appreciate Zoe for providing so much more than food and basic care for my babies, and highly recommend her.”
“I love that Aimee came for a very thorough "meet n greet". Aimee was wonderful with our two dogs. They warmed up to her immediately. She always got back to me as soon as I texted her. Thank you Aimee for allowing me to feel as ease right away with leaving our babies. Overall positive experience. Thank you.”
“Trinity did an amazing job with my special needs Great Dane (blind/deaf). And putting me at ease while I needed to be away for a work trip. She's calm, cool, collected, and very kind. Thank you so much!”
“Thank you for taking such good care of our furr babies!! Thank you for being so trust worthy and communicative. I knew they were in good hands and was able to relax while out of town. Also, thank you for taking care of the house. Will book again!”
“Mackenzie was an absolutely fantastic sitter for our two girls! We were gone for 11 days, and we were a bit nervous as our older lab can be slow to warm up to new people. Mackenzie was so thoughtful and proactive, offering to come by for two separate meet-and-greets before our trip. It made a world of difference and put everyone at ease. While we were away, she sent lots of wonderful pictures and updates, and it was clear our dogs were happy and well cared for. To top it all off, we came home to a house that was even tidier than we left it! We are so thrilled with Mackenzie's care and professionalism. We’ve definitely found our go-to sitter for all future trips!”
“Kristan did an amazing job house sitting for 6 days! She kept me updated throughout my time away, asked questions when needed, and shared plenty of pictures, which gave me great peace of mind. Lord Bentley was clearly very well taken care of and happy when I returned. I also came home to everything exactly as I left it. I would definitely book Kristan again and highly recommend her!”
“Lauren did an awesome job caring for our pup! She was very attentive to her needs and was very trustworthy staying in our home. I would definitely recommend her and hope to use her services again in the future!”
“On top of an awesome temperament, Michaela is also a great communicator. Our furry child is super anxious, very reactive and gives no indicators of when he’s getting fed up (until you find out that he’s fed up). In the past, he usually doesn’t open up to sitters; however, Michaela was able to get him to let her pet him (which never happens)! To complicate our booking, our poor little guy had his first ever seizure two days before the booking was to begin. It was very hard to leave him, especially since Michaela was new to us. She was confident in her capabilities to care for him still, and she managed his care like a champ.”
“Sammy was great! She came by to meet Leo prior to our vacation and asked all sorts of questions which really showed me she was paying attention to all of the details and that doing a good job was important to her. Sammy sent me a few messages while we were gone with updates about Leo and let me know when she arrived and left. I hope to use her services again this summer!”
About: Hi! My name is Michelle, and I’m a Registered Veterinary Technician who graduated from Purdue University in May 2026. I’ve been pet sitting for the past five years, with four of those years backed by the veterinary knowledge and hands on experience I’ve gained throughout my education and career. I’ve had the opportunity to work with a wide variety of animals and truly love caring for them. I would be happy to provide your fur babies with the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away! 🐾❤️ My typical work schedule is Monday–Friday from 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM. I’m available for pet care before or after work during the week, and I have more flexibility on weekends. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and schedule to make sure they receive the care and attention they need! I care for each pet according to their individual needs, personality, and routine. I’m happy to follow their normal feeding, medication, exercise, and potty schedules to help keep them comfortable and stress free while their owners are away. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship, while also keeping a close eye on their behavior and overall wellbeing. As a Registered Veterinary Technician, I have additional experience recognizing changes in a pet’s health and know when something may need extra attention. Most importantly, I treat every pet like they’re my own and want them to feel safe, happy, and loved while in my care!
About: I am dog mom and they are my pride and joy. I have had dogs since I was very young. Currently, I have a huge fenced-in (7 ft fence) backyard if your pup would like to come over and play! I also live in a little neighborhood that is perfect for walks but I would be more than happy to walk around your area. I am an animal lover! I love dogs of all breeds and sizes. I don't have as much experience with cats but have done drop in visits for many clients that have went great. I recently took in a pregnant stray kitty and took care of her through her delivery and the mama and her babies all great homes. So although I have not personally had a cat, I have some great experience. I love to take walks, go to parks, cuddle, and play with my dogs. I would love to help you out and meet yours! Being around animal and helping people are the two things that bring me the most joy in life. I can assure you your loved ones would be more than safe and cared for with me! I am very observant, reliable and would watch over your baby like they are my own. They may be a little spoiled by the end (if you approve of course) but overall they will be so well taken care! Personally, it is so hard for me to leave my two pups and when I'm gone, I worry about them so I know how hard it is to trust someone to keep your babies safe as well as happy and loved. I will always do the absolute most to make sure they are taken care of and happy. It is so important to me that all animals are safe and in good hands, as I believe they are family! I look forward to hearing from you :) I work Monday through Friday but I am usually home by 4/4:30pm, so I am free in the evenings and I am definitely free on the weekends if you need me. If you around my work location, I can stop in during the day. Messaging me is the easiest way to check my availability for your needs! At my home, I have a huge fenced in backyard (7ft fence) and my little yorkies cannot get out of the yard so I think any breed would be safe to run freely in my backyard. I have tons of treats and bowls for food and water! I only have two small cages inside but have a larger (5ftx5ft) kennel in our backyard as well. If I am coming to a clients home, I can drop in anytime to let your pets outside or just stop by to feed and water them as well as play times and walks! I love spending time with animals and making sure they are well taken care of so I am open to just about any service!

FAQs for House Sitting - Woodville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,051 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Woodville. 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 Woodville 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 Woodville 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Woodville 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 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.

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.
