âI'm thrilled to share that our experience with Tamara as our dog sitter was fantastic! Over the 4 days and nights, the dogs were taken care of but also radiantly happy. It's evident they received top-notch care and attention. Highly recommend Tamara for a worry-free pet sitting experience. We will be using her for further dog-sitting needs.â

About: work remotely full-time, which gives me the flexibility to spend plenty of time with the pets in my careâwhether theyâre staying with me or Iâm staying with them. I work remotely full-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to spend time with the pets in my careâwhether theyâre staying in my home or Iâm house sitting in theirs. For dogs staying with me, Iâm home throughout the day for plenty of attention, supervision, and frequent potty and play breaks in our fenced yard. Theyâre welcome to hang out with me while I work or find a comfortable spot to relax and nap. When Iâm house sitting, I can work remotely from your home so your pets can enjoy the same companionship while staying in their familiar environment. Iâm happy to follow their usual schedule for meals, walks, potty breaks, medications, playtime, and downtime. Wherever Iâm caring for your pet, I do my best to maintain their normal routine and make their time away from you feel as comfortable and familiar as possible. Whether Iâm caring for your pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are my priority. I pay close attention to body language, behavior, and each petâs individual needs, and Iâm happy to follow their normal feeding, medication, exercise, and care routines. In my home, I have a fully fenced yard and plenty of space for dogs to play, relax, or take a break when they need one. Iâm experienced with multi-dog households, different play styles, and recognizing when a dog needs some space. I also have gates to block access to stairs or separate areas of the home when needed, as well as multiple large crates for dogs who are crate-trained and feel most comfortable having their own space. When Iâm house sitting, Iâll care for your pets and your home with the same attention I give my own. Iâll follow your instructions closely, maintain your petâs usual routine, respect any household rules or safety precautions, and make sure your home is secure while youâre away. Iâm also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are safe and well cared for.
âSofia was amazing! This was my first time using Rover & I was super nervous but she sent me so many updates & went above & beyond to take care of my boy! Will definitely be using her again!â

âThe girls were great, they cleaned up after themselves, including washing and folding their towels. Our dogs are pretty codependent and so they had to cuddle with them most of the time. It appears they followed the directions for feeding and medicationâs. We will definitely use them in the future again.â

âKatelyn kept us informed about Bella throughout our vacation. She sent lots of pictures too. We will definitely be using her for all of our long-term dog sitting needs.â

âMichelle is an amazing stay in dog sitting. If you want peace of mind while you're away know Michelle is the ideal dog sitter. I highly, highly recommend her. From the meet and great Daisy, my dog really liked being around her. Michelle showed up on time to the meet and the day of. Michelle made sure to asked all the right questions, took notes so nothing could be overlooked. When I returned the house looked impeccable (I think better then I left it) and my dog was happy, well taken care of and not stressed at all. I will definitely continue to use Michelle services.â

âWe couldnât have asked for a better sitter! She was extremely thoughtful, caring, and helpful, and she took all of our instructions seriously. Most importantly, she somehow won over our very difficult and anxious cat, Gigi, which is no small feat! When a shelf unexpectedly broke while we were away, she handled everything very calmly and responsibly. Cannot be more thankful. We absolutely recommend her and would love to have her sit for our cats again! â¤ď¸â

âIf I could give more stars I would! Raven is an absolute dream to have watch your furr- babies! She is very attentive and communicative. She sent me lots of updates and I received lots of photos and videos. She also was very respectful of my home. It was a GREAT experience and I am so thrilled she worked out! Not to mention that my dogs loved her!! Thank you, Raven! We will def be seeing you again!â

About: I just lost my cat and I would love to have some company without the commitment! I've pet sat professionally for years back in New Jersey with Kate's Canine Care. I have an incredibly flexible schedule and work my own hours. I'm available for boarding or house sitting. Short weekends away or long vacations I'm your girl! My apartment complex has a dog park right outside my building. I love when pets sleep with me (if that's okay with their owners) I'm very calm and organized. I will follow specific directions with ease
About: I have experience with all furry pets. Dogs of all sizes and personality types. Lover of cats. Iâm both a dog and cat mom. Donât worry, my parents watch my fur babies while Iâm caring for yours. Iâm very flexible as Iâm fully committed to being there for you and your fur babies. Iâm available for both overnight stays and daily drop ins. I will watch your fur babies in your home according to your guidelines. Iâm very flexible and can adapt. That means I can have them out or crate them depending on your wishes.

âI would give Monica 10 stars if I could! I highly recommend her. Monica stayed at our house and watched our cat and dog. She provided multiple updates (including beautiful pictures!) daily. She exceeded all expectations and we returned to happy, healthy animals. Highly trustworthy and dependable. Highly recommend!â

About: I grew up with dogs and cats, have fostered both and been a cat owner. I have also helped friends and acquaintances with their pets while they are away. My experience includes walking dogs, scooping đŠ, changing litter boxes, providing food and play to pets, and completing general house sitting tasks. I have also administered eye medications to kittens before and allergy meds to dogs. I have also lived on a couple of farms and helped take care of horses, goats, chickens, and even a rabbit. I would love to take care of your pet and offer you the peace of mind to know I will love on and care for them as if they were my own :) Iâm self-employed, so I have plenty of time available to care for your pets. Specifically, I am a Certified Public Accountant who quit her consulting job to become a part-time farmer! I am currently operating my own micro-farm growing organic vegetables and flowers in South Austin which allows my schedule to be very flexible. I am available for boarding, house-sitting, pet walking and drop-in visits to feed and play with cats and dogs (and other animals on a case by case basis). I am happy to visit and care for a variety of pets by feeding and playing with them as well as helping with any household tasks including plant watering, checking the mail and throwing out trash/recycling. I am currently living in a tiny home on my own on a large plot of land with plenty of access to unfenced outdoor space if you are interested in boarding your pets. I am also very happy to come to your home for drop-in visits and/or to stay overnight if you and your pets would be more comfortable with that option. For dogs, I am happy to spend time indoors with them playing with toys and giving them good belly scratches as well as take them outdoors either into the backyard and/or on walks. I have experience both with big dogs including a German Shepherd, Great Pyrenees lab mix, Australian Shepherds, and shelter dogs as well as smaller dogs including a Teacup Pomeranian and an Iggie. Iâm very active, so if your dog has a lot of energy and likes to go on runs, I am happy to run with them as well. For cats, I am happy to match their energy levels - if they are playful and energetic, I engage with them and encourage play. If they prefer to sleep or rest or are more shy, I am happy to just be around and pet them/brush them if they would like or just give them space. I am happy to care for other pets if requested and I am comfortable with the care instructions. I have previously cared for a tortoise, which mainly consisted of feeding him and giving him water.
âGihan watched our baby for the first time and was wonderful with him. Very patient with his fussy quirks and really taking the time to get to know him better. We appreciated her sending updates and plenty of photos to keep us posted on how things were coming along throughout the day. We already have her booked again for our next time away!â

About: I have several years of house and dog sitting experience, I'm available evenings and weekends to walk, feed, play, and take care of your dog. I've had a lot of dogs of different breeds throughout my life, German Shepherds, Pitbulls, Chihuahuas, etc., so I have plenty of experience meeting the needs of large and small dogs. Most dogs take to me right away. They're safe with me! Evenings and weekends are when I'm most available, but I have a very variable work schedule so often weekdays work great as well with enough advance notice. I like to take one if not more opportunities to meet the dogs I sit before the assignment to help them become familiar with me. When I'm sitting, I spend a lot of time at home with the dogs and make sure to stick to the routine they are already used to with their owners.
âOur little Tasmanian devil had an absolute blast with Derek! Having him home sit was the best decision, house was clean, dog was happy, great communication while we were gone, need I go on? 10/10 already recommending to friendsâ

âWillow was amazing. I am always an overbearing pet parent to my kiddos and she was so sweet always answering my texts and sending me pictures every day. Truly the best!â

âDiego is an absolute gem! Heâs been the best sitter we have used on Rover. He was extremely attentive to all of our animals, took them on daily walks, and sent us photos keeping us updated while we were away. He is also very neat and tidy. We couldnât recommend him enough! We look forward to using him again in the future.â

Sophie was amazing. She was really flexible with her meet and greet and the dogs loved her. She arrived early for both the meet and greet and the housesitting. Sophie was quick to respond when we checked in to see the house. She sent us pictures which was great. She was amazing.

FAQs for House Sitting - Wyldwood
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Wyldwood on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 4,006 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wyldwood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitterâs 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 Wyldwood walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your homeâs security or appliances.
Itâs helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Wyldwood 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 theyâll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your petâs 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 Wyldwood 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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.
