“First time Rover user and we were very happy with Teresa. Sent updates, photos and the house great. Especially liked that Teresa had extensive animal care background. We would definitely use Rover again”
“Leigh was amazing with Duch yet again! I was updated without having to ask and had the peace of mind that Duch was in great care! Leigh goes above and beyond and I was so thankful to come back to a happy pup!”
“Megan took care of my aging housecat and my home for several days and did an excellent job at both! Her communication was excellent and I loved the pictures that she sent of my little guy while I was away. Highly recommend!”
“Matthew took good care of our very large, reactive dog while we were away. He sent us photos daily and was good at communicating if he had any questions. We will definitely be asking Matthew to watch our pup next time we go away.”
“We're grateful we found Stephen! He came to our hotel to pet sit, putting our dog immediately at ease. By the time we got back, they were best buds. Highly, 100% recommend.”
“June was great watching our two dogs and cat while staying at her house. She was flexible and reached out with questions as needed. We'll definitely be using her again in the future!”
“First time using Rover and we were very satisfied. Our puppies were loved and happy when we got home. The house was neat and clean and we couldn’t recommend this couple more! Will use again for sure!”
“One of the hardest things about having pets is caring for them when we’re not able to. There’s just so much to worry about and too many nuanced details to convey to a house/dog sitter that it’s tough to be at ease. I’ll admit that I’m a little high-strung and using Rover for the first time for this service was not an easy decision. Fast forward to today…Heather is an absolute pro. You immediately get that she’s very experienced and respectful of your unique situation. She asks all the right questions and is an excellent communicator. Honestly could go on and on, but needless to say, we’re super pleased and I think found the high-mark on our very first try. We are already scheduled to see her again this summer and it’ll be the first time that I won’t worry about our dogs or home. Thanks Heather!”
“What a delight it was to have faith watch our four year-old golden retriever! It put me at ease knowing our Doggo was being well cared for. Faith did a wonderful job with communication starting from a meet and greet all the way to letting us know when she was leaving. She went above and beyond with check-ins and photos to washing and remaking the bedbefore she left. We will definitely be using Faith again for our future trips.”
About: I am currently working at Banfield Pet Hospital as a Veterinary Assistant, so I am able to give pets nail trims, medications, fluids, etc., and I can also tell if there's any behavioral or medical abnormalities with your pet. I am attending Harcum college, where I am studying to be a veterinary nurse. After graduating Harcum and getting my certificate, I plan to move on to emergency/specialty medicine and specializing in anesthesia. I’m 20 years old and I have spent the majority of my life caring for animals. I even have a 5-year-old Alaskan Malamute, so I have plenty of experience with the stubborn, intelligent breeds. FLEXIBLE. I live in the dorms at Harcum college (Bryn Mawr, PA) during the week where I would like to pet sit locally. All days, I have breaks between classes where I could stop by and check on your pets. Friday-Sunday I am typically home, working at the animal hospital, but I only live 30 minutes from Harcum, so I can still swing by as needed. I will do any and all sorts of enrichment that the pet requires including daily walks, playing with toys, going on little 'adventures', light training, giving treats, etc. Pets will be fed in a timely manner (I can't promise a set schedule due to work & class hours). I will also respect your pet's boundaries, completely! I understand not all dogs/cats want to cuddle or play; some like to hide or don't want to engage at all. I get it! I'm here to make sure they are happy, safe, and taken care of while the owner is away.
“Sarah did an excellent job house/pet sitting us! She is very responsible and communicates well. It was nice getting surprise photos as well!! We definitely recommend her and would gladly use her again...”
About: We have both been working in pet care for over 4 years. We both worked at Wagsworth Manor Pet Resort. While working there, we gained experience with all types of dogs, including puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with behavioral problems. We have both administered many different types of medications, and Maya is certified in Dog first aid and CPR. We both moved on from wagsworth last year and have gained more experience with taking care of animals in people's homes, and would love to work with you and your pets! Maya works full-time hours Monday-Friday, but Emily is available weekdays. Since we work together, we can make sure all your pets are given the attention they deserve! We have a lot of experience navigating dogs' behavior with both people and other animals. We have worked with all types of dogs from lazy senior dogs to high-energy reactive dogs, and are confident we can work with you to meet the needs of all of your pets.
“Chris is so thoughtful and generous. She brought a big bone for my dog, cleaned up my house and left food for me when she left. How sweet is that! She's very caring and attentive. I definitely recommend her for anyone's fur-babies!! 💕”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Woodville is $55
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Woodville
We had Elizabeth watch our 2 dogs for 2 weeks and she was fabulous. Elizabeth stayed in contact with us on a daily basis and sent us pictures of our babies. She took such good care of them when we came home they were not stressed at all and we’re happy to see us. I would definitely use Elizabeth in the future. I cannot say enough about the Care she gave our pups.
Elizabeth was amazing with our dog while we were on vacation! She sent regular updates with adorable photos and videos, which really put us at ease. Our pup was clearly happy and well cared for. She also left our home spotless — cleaner than we left it! We’re so grateful for her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and reliable sitter.

FAQs for House Sitting - Woodville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 4,089 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.
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 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 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.

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.
