“I'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.”
“The 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 medication’s. We will definitely use them in the future again.”
About: I have experience with all furry pets. Dogs of all sizes and personality types. Lover of cats. I’m both a dog and cat mom. Don’t worry, my parents watch my fur babies while I’m caring for yours. I’m very flexible as I’m fully committed to being there for you and your fur babies.

That means I can have them out or crate them depending on your wishes.
“Michelle stayed with Luna for a week, and she took care of both our dog and our house beautifully. I think our house is in better shape than when we left it! Michelle kept us updated with messages and pictures while we were away. Awesome pet-sitter!”
“Arianna is amazing. My babies love her! She is attentive, accommodating and sends plenty of pics. I have booked several stays with her, and will continue to do so in the future.”
“We had an amazing experience with our Katelyn! She took exceptional care of our pups and kept us updated with frequent messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. When one of our dogs went on a food strike, she didn't panic and she thought outside the box, found a solution that worked, and kept us informed every step of the way. It's clear she genuinely cares about the animals she watches. We came home to two happy pups and a well cared for home. We would absolutely recommend her and will definitely be booking her again!”
“derik took care of my two dogs for two weeks and then some, and i truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. from start to finish, he was incredibly proactive + communicative. he went out of his way to do a meet and greet beforehand to make sure everyone was a good fit, which immediately gave me confidence that he genuinely cared about the dogs and was full invested in things going smoothly. i have a somewhat complicated feeding routine with supplements, raw food, and different portions for each dog. derik took the time to learn everything, asked thoughtful questions whenever he wasn’t 100% sure to make sure everything was concise. throughout the stay, he was communicative, reliable, and transparent ! he kept me updated, let me know about anything out of the ordinary, and handled situations calmly and responsibly. he genuinely cares and is invested in keeping things smooth sailing. from start to finish, i feel like i’d gained not only a trusted dog sitter but also a friend. it’s rare to find someone who is both dependable and genuinely invested in the animals they’re caring for. i won’t hesitate to book derik again, and i’d confidently recommend him to my friends or anyone looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, and compassionate to care for their pets. the kiddos were in great hands. ✨🐶✨”
“Diego was wonderful all around! And we will definitely reach out again for support. As an overnight sitter, he left the house great. My toy poodle is getting older, more fussy with going out and eating and Diego had great patience with her. His communication was stellar, from the meet & greet to when we were away. Misty was very relaxed and happy when I arrived. With previous sitters she would be more withdrawn. Overall, I’m so happy Misty had great company!”
About: I love dogs and I’m always happy to give them a playful day. Walks, runs, ball, frisbee…you name it! Here to make sure there’s more to a dog’s day besides sitting at home. Can be arranged for daily, weekly, randomly. Hoping to build strong friendships with owners and pups! All about taking new routes and trying new things. Making sure they are walked, fed, hydrated, happy, and healthy! All the belly rubs in the world and maybe a treat or two if the owner approves.
About: I’m Jacob, a full time nurse, looking for a side hustle to help pay off my student loans :) If you trust me with your pet(s) I will make them my top priority. I will shower them with attention, and take lots of pictures to update you with about our day. I work 3 days a week. I have plenty of free time during the week for your pet’s needs. It would be such a fulfilling past time for me to care for your animals. I live alone in a quiet apartment with no other animals. There’s a good amount of space. Quick and easy walk to the trail around lady bird lake.
“Raven treated our (3) pets like her own, they were very happy & well cared for. We had a literal book of instructions and she seemed to have it all figured out & everything was in great order when we got back. We will definitely call her next time we travel!”
“Sierra is a great pet sitter and a wonderful person. She is conscientious and caring, always worrying about our pets and ensuring that they are safe and comfortable. She is reliable and trust worthy. We would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone needing a cat, dog or house sitter :)”
“Hannah and her husband were amazing!! They kept me super informed about everything that was going on while I was away. I could tell that Raya was well taken care for and felt so comfortable that she was in their hands. They also kept our house tidy and were great guests. Thanks guys!”
“Kory did an amazing job with watching our senior dog and two cats during our wedding and honeymoon abroad! He was very kind, considerate, inquisitive and communicative! Would highly recommend him for in-home petsitting!”
“Woody took great care of our scaredy pup Bella. Bella can be challenged when new people come into her life. Woody took steps to help Bella with this and was able to gain her trust. We hope highly recommend Woody for your pet's care.”
“Willow 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!”
“I can’t recommend Joely enough! We needed a pretty last minute dog sitter for our two-week vacation to Italy, and she was a complete lifesaver. Our two boys absolutely loved her, and she sent photo updates everyday, which we were extremely thankful for since we missed them so much! We will definitely rebook Joely again for all of our dog sitter needs :)”
“Kayla is the BEST! Highly recommend. She took great care of my precious pups and also my house. In fact, I was delighted to come home to a spotless house. I hadn't expected that! I hope to use Kayla again in the future.”

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 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 3,991 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 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 Wyldwood 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 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 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 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 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.
