“I can’t recommend Gabriela enough! She helped me out on very short notice, and I’m so grateful she was available. My dog can be a handful—he’s big (around 100 pounds) and very affectionate—but she handled him with so much patience and confidence. It’s clear she really understands dogs, especially larger breeds, and knows how to manage their energy while still giving them the love and attention they need. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. If you’re looking for someone reliable, knowledgeable, and genuinely great with dogs, Gabriela is the one!”
“Allison did AMAZING with our girls. We always get nervous about new people with our pups but she did a great job making us feel comfortable and sending updates/pictures! Our girls were happy and worn out when we got home. :) We will definitely be using Allison again, she goes above and beyond! Very happy with our house sit.”
“Courtney was great with the dogs and our anxious boy took to her well. She only stayed one night but made our return home very pleasant because she also did some unexpected cleaning-my favorite thing to come home to after a trip. She was very responsive. Would definitely recommend and will be using her again.”
About: I have been walking and watching for dogs since I was in high school and I am now 33, so it’s been a while. I have three of my own fur babies and I am very particular about who I let watch them. I understand our dogs are apart of our family, which is exactly how I would treat them. I love spending time with dogs, talking to them and making them feel special. I do have a full time job as a mental health therapist but my schedule is flexible which allows me to give the fur babies the correct amount of exercise and attention. I have spent time volunteering in shelters and I am able to work with dogs that may be more timid or shy. I work from home and so have a flexible schedule where I’d have the ability to help out with doggos. I use this as a side gig so I am very flexible. I have a fenced in yard for my dogs. I always carry extra leashes or harnesses with me in case they are needed. I will follow the instructions given to me by the owner.
“Damica stayed in our house and took care of our golden retriever for 4 nights. She is amazing- responded to messages quickly, made sure she understood what our dog needed and how things worked in our house. My dog loved her and we will definitely try and book Damica again for our next trip out of town.”
“Overall, Kellsey did great with caring for my dogs! My girls can “pout” a bit while I am away and she made sure that she messaged me to ensure that they were ok and that it was normal. She was able to meet my girls before my trip so that I knew they got along well!”
“Maribel was AWESOME! She is reliable and friendly. She cared for our dog so well over a weekend. Our dog has anxious tendencies and Maribel handled it with ease. We will definitely book her again!”
“Amazing sitter and highly recommend!! Super relatable, chill, and loving with our pets. We really appreciate Daniel keeping us updated and even going as far as washing our sheets during his stay. So so nice, Thnks!! We can tell our babies has such an amazing time with you! Will definitely be booking again when we go out of town!”
“Kendall did a great job caring for my dogs. They loved her!! She took them on adventures and treated them to pup cups at Starbucks! Yes, my dogs are a little bougie 😊. I highly recommend Kendall to care for your pet(s).”
“Chris did a wonderful job watching over our dog and two kitties while we were away. He sent great updates, pictures, and kept us informed of everything that was going on. Would definitely recommend him!”
“Kelsey took great care of our 5YO golden retriever, 2 cats and house. She updated us daily and we came home to a clean house, happy pets! I highly recommend Kelsey”
“Allison was great with my 2 pugs. She went above and beyond what I expected. My go loved her. She watered plants, filled Hummingbird feeders and dispensed medicine to one of the girls. She left my house clean and was a joy to work with”
“Anna did a great job with our 2 big dogs! She had a couple of sticky situations (one dog getting sick and the bedroom door knob falling off) and she handled them like a pro. Will absolutely rebook with her”
“This is my first time using Stephanie. She is kind, considerate and truly caring of your pet. She took great care of my diabetic and deaf Boston Terrier. I plan on using her again. I highly recommend her!”
“Hannah has been great to watch our dog multiple times when we are out of town. She is reliable with good communication throughout the stay. We will continue to reach out to her!”
“Skylar took excellent care of our doggies! She sent us pics and updates nearly everyday. The dogs were very happy and contented when we returned home so we knew they had a good time. And she left the house spotless clean. She is so sweet and we will definitely ask her to watch them again!”
About: I’ve owned several dogs over the years, and have helped family and friends with their dogs as well. I adopted a reactive pit bull and trained her, making great progress in her ability to meet new people, animals, and have new experiences, and want to help care for other animals now that she has passed. Happy to work with all kinds of dogs! I work from home so I am available during the day for quick walks and potty breaks, with time for a longer walk at lunchtime. In evenings, I often have theater rehearsals or recreational sports leagues, but am able to come home within a few hours. I am very comfortable in any environment, and I am willing to work in whichever way will make you more comfortable for your pet’s needs.
“I had another sitter cancel on me last minute for a four day trip out of town for my sister’s wedding. I found Darlene at the last minute and truly consider her a lifesaver She came and met my girls same day and took great notes on all of their care. She immediately put me at ease, leaving them with a new person on one day notice for a super important event. I got frequent updates with photos of my babies and even got to FaceTime them while I was out of town for four days. My dogs were so happy when I came home. My house looked great and she provided wonderful updates and care of the entire time. Could not have asked for a better sitter for my girls and she absolutely saved what could’ve been a really terrible situation. We have already planned our next overnight before I even got home. Thank you so much for the amazing care”

Lindi was great with our dog. We have her house sit for two weeks, and she provided regular updates and took care of our girl while we were on vacation. Our dog is senior, so she had some extra needs - like frequent potty breaks and special food/ meds requirement, and Lindi did great with her. ( thanks, Lindi for all the love and care!).
Ellen was amazing. We will definitely use her again if she’s available and wants to come back! We have 2 cats and 2 dogs, one of which is anxious and takes a while to warm up. We had Ellen spend some time with our pets beforehand (given the anxious one) and EVERY visit she was on time and my pets loved her. She sent us a ton of pictures and updates which was great since I was a little nervous to leave our anxious girl for the first time.
I booked Journie to stay with my 12-year-old, blind American Eskimo and could not have been happier with how things turned out. She stayed in our home for 9 days and when I came back, everything looked just as I had left it. Spotless! She took great care of my sweet Sadie, administering her insulin shots every morning and night, walking her daily, sitting outside weather permitting, and playing ball on occasion. Sadie lets me know if her sitter is warm and welcoming or not, she won't speak to me for at least a day, will even growl if I try to pet her if her if the experience was subpar. But with Journie, that was not the case. Sadie was her usual happy and loving self when I returned, telling me she was well taken care of. Journie also took pictures and texted me often with short updates. She was very transparent upfront on what days she would be gone all day for work, which allowed me to reach out to a neighbor to let Sadie out mid-day for a potty break. I was extremely happy with Journie's care for Sadie and highly recommend her. I will definitely be reaching out to her again. Thank you, Journie!
Courtney was great! She sent a lot of pictures & communicated everyday on how Willie was doing. It definitely put our minds at ease knowing our little guy was being treated so good. She was great with giving him his needed eye drops everyday & we could tell when we got home they were administered correctly. She also took great care of our home. I would definitely recommend her.
Brittany has become a go-to house sitter for me. My dog loves her. Her schedule aligns really well with my remote working schedule so the pal is never alone for long periods. I can leave the house with complete peace of mind knowing she’s going to be here for both short and longer stays. Thank you Brittany!!!
Cecilia did an amazing job watching our dog and house while we were away on vacation. She was reliable, communicative, and took wonderful care of everything. Our pup absolutely loved her! We would highly recommend Cecilia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Wynnedale is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $73 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,425 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wynnedale. 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 Wynnedale 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 Wynnedale 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 Wynnedale 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
