“Maya is the BEST! She has watched our girls twice now and she treated them just like we do....spoiled! She sent such great updates and pictures to us and really made us worry about them less than we normally do. I almost hate to give this review LOL because I hope she is available the next time we need her! THANK you Maya”
“Michelle was an amazing pet sitter. She was my first live-in overnight sitter and she helped me feel so at ease about the whole process. She communicated well prior to the pet sitting dates, and she sent me daily updates on how things were going along with pictures of my very happy dogs while in her care. I have three dogs with different needs and abilities and they all had a great time with her. I would absolutely use her again for future pet sitting needs!”
“Wow! Kyle was awesome! Great communication, super detailed and our dog LOVED him! Loved the regular updates and all the pictures he took after spending a couple of days with Quigley. Highly recommend Kyle and will definitely try to rebook him in the future. Thanks so much!!”
“We can’t say enough good things about Mary! She was absolutely wonderful—so loving and attentive to our dogs, and clearly treated them like her own. She took amazing care of them while we were away, and even helped us out with a last-minute extension to our trip without hesitation. We trust her beyond measure and will absolutely book her every time we need a sitter. Thank you, Mary, for your kindness, flexibility, and the peace of mind you gave us while we were away!”
“Holly was a great communicator and sent us lots of pictures of Tony, which we greatly appreciated. She was very thorough with her descriptions of how Tony’s day was going and even put some dishes away! Thank you Holly!!!”
“Michelle is honestly the greatest person! She cares so much for our animals and her updates are just the best! Thank you for another wonderful week stay with our furry kids!! You are a gem!”
“2nd time that Kristy looked after our girls. It was an overnight rover and she made sure to keep us updated and followed all of our instructions. We felt calm and safe that she could take care of our pups which is a great feeling. Would book again!”
“We were very thankful to have found Carina on Rover. She loves animals and did an excellent job taking great care of our 18 year old cat with health issues and our 2 year old Collie. She was a wonderful housesitter and took care of everything so well from giving our pets their medicine to refilling the bird feeder for the local finches and chickadees. We are looking forward to having Carina care for our pets and house sit again this summer.”
“John watched our rambunctious 80 pound German Shepherd for the first time and he had great communication with us the entire time which eased my anxiety of leaving her with a new person. He got to the house exactly when he said he would and spent the entire day hanging out with her. Everything went really smoothly and we will definitely use him again because he is reliable and a good communicator.”
“Emma was a great sitter for our 3 cat babies. She was always quick to respond, left the place very clean, and gave them plenty of attention. Some of our cats can be slow to warm up to humans, but that wasn't the case with Emma (they seemed pretty comfortable around her and didn't hide right away). She also took care of our house plants. Would recommend Emma to anyone.”
About: I have taken care of pets for friends and family including house sitting and drop ins for long day trips. I enjoy taking dogs on long walks. I'm pretty flexible with pet care and always willing to learn. I have experience with providing some medications. I work full time at a public school. I have time in the mornings and afternoons. Over the summer I am free throughout the day. I make sure pets get the love and attention they deserve. I enjoy playing with pets and making sure they continue to be active and healthy!
“We found our perfect housesitter/doggo sitter! I’ll admit, I was a little nervous at first about having someone we didn’t know come into our home to care for our three mischievous pups. We had always relied on friends and family, so this was a brand-new experience for us. From the very beginning, Anja completely put our minds at ease. She was incredible with our doggos, sent us daily photos that made us smile, took them for walks, snuggled and loved on them and took wonderful care of our home. Truly, I wish I could give her 10 stars—she’s that amazing. We couldn’t be happier and hope to use her Rover skills again and again. Thank you Anja!”
“Tyler took wonderful care of our dog and kept her company and kept her safe during the fireworks for the holiday! We will be happy to have him stay with her again :)”
“Joseph was so attentive and caring to our dog, we would love to book him again the next time we go out of town. We pamper our dog and give her LOTS of love and attention when we are home, but could tell from the daily pictures and updates from Joseph that she was getting the same level of care when he was there that she would when it is actually us with her. We told him that walks are appreciated but not necessary, and he took her on them nearly every day. We seriously could not be more impressed with someone’s care of our pampered princess.”
“Zachary did an exceptional job on watching all my fur babies. He followed directions for care perfectly. I highly recommend him for a sitter for both dogs and cats. I look forward to booking him in the future.”
“This is the second time we have had Kory care for our 2 cats while away, over nights. He sends regular updates and photos and is proactive about checking in about scheduled services. We are confident that our home and pets are getting great care while Kory is there!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Woodway is $65

Laney did great with our pets! She was very responsive to our texts, sent updates and pictures when requested, and left the house clean for our return. She gave the dogs lots of outside time, and gave all the animals lots of love and snuggles. We'd absolutely book her again for future trips.
Merddyn was always attentive and prompt. Whenever she had questions or an issue, she quickly communicated and ensured proper cat-sitting. She kept our home very clean and beautiful and my two cats were healthy and happy. I'll definitely rebook her. Thank you, Merddyn!
We love Michelle! She’s the best communicator - consistently responds quickly and always provides twice daily updates with several pup pics. She follows our (lengthy) instructions to the letter! Michelle will update us if anything seems “off” with our pups because she knows them so well. And, she always keeps our house spotless. Michelle is like family & we couldn’t be more grateful!
Kate watched our two kitties in our home for 3 days. We came home to happy kitties which is always great! Kate sent daily update and gave a long update on her final day before leaving our home. She also checked in a few times leading up to our trip to make sure we were both confirmed and clear on instructions which was appreciated. She also made sure to take out the trash and tidy up after her stay. The only small hiccup was prior to booking. The pricing shown on the listing was not the actual cost. She prices herself a bit different than all other Rover sitters we’ve work with. That said, the total cost was reasonable and we worked it out before I agreed to book.
Addisyn did an amazing job caring for our dogs and looking after our home while we were gone. She was incredibly attentive and kept us updated the whole time, which gave us total peace of mind. She was super reliable with their routine, making sure they got their allergy meds with dinner each night. Honestly, I don’t think the dogs even missed us! We returned to very happy, well-cared-for pups and will absolutely be booking Addisyn again. Highly recommend!
Maya was extremely attentive to our dogs. She provided consistent updates, was communicative with us, and sent lots of photo updates through the day. We have a dog with a lot of medical issues and she was able to administer the drugs to her, no problem. We have another dog that has lots of separation anxiety and Maya was willing to stay with her for most of the day. We came back to a tidied up house. We appreciate Maya and we hope to be able to use her in the future.
Melanie took such great care of our cat Lilly and our fish. She sent pictures daily and spent time getting to know our shy kitty. Lilly is hesitant to meet new people, but within a few visits she was snuggling Melanie. It was such a blessing to know our cat and fish were getting attention and love during our 3 week vacation. Melanie truly has a strong connection with pets of all kinds and I am so thankful for her compassion and thoughtfulness in care.

FAQs for House Sitting - Woodway
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Woodway on Rover is $67.64 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 7,654 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Woodway. 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 Woodway 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 Woodway 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 Woodway 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.
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.
