“Donna was absolutely incredible taking care of my cat and house sitting! I came back to a clean home and happy guy :) she went absolutely above and beyond and was very communicative and sent me so many pictures of my cat and his food and litter so I could be at ease knowing he was safe and healthy! Will be booking her every time I go away!”
“Rowan did a great job and is very communicative. We were nervous about leaving our dog on New Years Eve with the fireworks, but they provided great company!”
“Our pups were happy and tired out which tells me Aaron kept them active. Aaron sent pictures daily and kept us up to date on how things were going. As first time users of Rover, we got super lucky with Aaron. We have already rebooked!”
“Susan took great care of Sullivan while out of town for one night. She successfully administered his medication, gave him lots of cuddles & outside time & provided pictures as well as updates. She was also very willing to help out with a last-minute request. We definitely plan to use Susan again in the future!”

About: I've spent years caring for animals with a variety of personalities, ages, and needs. Living with a Great Dane has made me very comfortable handling large and giant breeds, and caring for my Labrador through her 17th year gave me plenty of experience with the extra patience and attention senior dogs need. I'm also experienced in administering insulin injections and following medication schedules for pets with medical needs. No matter your animal’s age, size, or routine, I'll make sure they receive attentive, compassionate care and feel right at home while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make time for the pets in my care. I typically finish work by 3 PM, and I also have two days each week where I work from home, giving me extra availability and flexibility throughout the day. When needed, I can also use my lunch break to check in on your pets and make sure they’re doing well. I’m available for evening and weekend care as well, allowing me to provide consistent attention, companionship, and support for your pet’s daily routine. I provide pet care in my client’s home, where I can help pets feel comfortable by keeping their familiar routines and surroundings. I understand that every pet has their own needs, so I focus on providing attentive, reliable care that includes feeding, playtime, walks, medication needs, and plenty of companionship. I’m available for weekday visits, evenings, and weekends, and I also offer daily walks and evening walks to help keep pets happy, active, and well cared for while their owners are away.
“Jeanette (Donna) took great care of our pup. She regularly checked in with photos. Jeanette (Donna) confirmed start time the day before and verified we were returning as planned. Our pup was in great hands with Jeanette”
“Jennifer was wonderful! She watched our 4 month old puppy in our home for 5 nights. From the very beginning she was communicative and responded quickly. She did a meet and greet and spent so much time getting to know our puppy, Petals. Her love of animals was clear and Petals was very comfortable with her. Jennifer gave us pictures and updates and even did some training with Petals. We came home to a happy, well taken care of puppy and an immaculate house. She had even washed the sheets and towels and had the bed made for us. We highly recommend her and will definitely become repeat customers. Her professionalism and obvious love of her job made us feel very comfortable leaving our sweet puppy with her.”
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover who grew up with dogs and cats my entire life. I am a proud cat owner who understands that pets are family. I've spent years dog-sitting for friends and caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels. Whether your pup loves walks, playtime, or cuddles, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. I can't wait to meet you and your furry friend! I currently work at a dentist office Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. Mondays and Friday I get off at 2:30pm at the latest. While Tuesdays and Thursdays I get off at 5:30 at the latest. Free during the weekends most of the time. I care for pets in their own home by maintaining their normal routine and making sure they feel comfortable and secure while you're away. I'll follow all feeding, walking, playtime, and medication instructions, provide plenty of attention and affection, and keep their environment clean and safe. I also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Leaving your pups for a vacation can be stressful. Alaina really helped ease that anxiety by sending us pictures daily and keeping us updated. Our dogs enjoyed their time with her and got lots of snuggles. Thanks again for all your help!”
About: I have taken care of animals since i was a child! I personally had 4+ dogs/cats at a time growing up since I was 5 years old and even now! As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home the majority of the day and night, which allows me to give consistent attention and supervision. I only step out briefly for school drop-off/pick-up or short errands, typically no more than a few hours total. Your dog will not be left alone for long stretches and will be treated like part of our daily routine, with regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of interaction throughout the day. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We live on 2 fully fenced acres, providing plenty of secure space to run and explore while always supervised. When indoors, pets are part of our family environment — relaxing, playing, or cuddling in a calm and clean home. I carefully follow each dog’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions to ensure they feel safe and at ease. My goal is to create a structured but loving environment where your pup feels right at home.
“This is our 2nd time booking with ZaNayah and once again She's been such a pleasure to have around and the love and care she gives to our kiddos is amazing. Such great energy, we totally recommend ZaNayah you will not be disappointed. Will definitely book with her again!!!”
“Tori was very responsive during the booking process as well as right before, during and after she left my home. Raven has allergies and she ensured she ate and took her medications. She was courteous of my home, even cleaning up a mess Raven left for her… and consistently provided me with pictures and updates to show me how happy Raven was while I was away. I know Raven is looking forward to having her stay again!”
“My dog has a lot of anxiety around new people but she was very comfortable very quickly with Julia who did a great job of taking care of my pup. She went out of her way to come early in order to meet the dog and get an idea of her routine and communicated really well with me. I would 100% book with Julia again.”

I can’t say enough good things about McKenna! Her communication was excellent, and I loved receiving pictures of my pets every day. It was clear that they loved having her around—they were always by her side—and they looked happy and well cared for when I got home. I have a very nervous dog, and other sitters have mentioned having trouble getting him outside or earning his trust. McKenna and he seemed to become friends very quickly! She genuinely cared about making my pets feel comfortable and even asked about the little things we normally do together so she could keep their routine as familiar as possible. McKenna is responsible, caring, and trustworthy. I highly recommend her and would absolutely have her sit for my pets again!
Julia is GREAT!! I extremely appreciative of her taking my last minute request! My sweet boy Buzz was recently neutered and I needed to have him watched while at work and Julia saved the day for me! She was extremely thorough, and made sure his medications were administered. She provided updates and sent pictures and most importantly, she kept my boy safe and happy! I will rebook with her any time Buzz needs care! I highly recommend booking with Julia!!!
Julia was amazing! She went above and beyond for me and my fur babies, she was very understanding and accommodating for all of their little quirks! Both of my pups have separation anxiety and she was able to keep them distracted and happy. They’re top favorite things consist of playing and food, she not only was amazing playing with them (they can be quite rambunctious) but she even went as far as getting them both new toys and treats! No doubt will be rebooking any future trips with Julia!
Anjali was amazing with our two pups! She house sat for us while we were out of town and I know the boys felt so comfortable with her here. She took care of our home like it was her own. The pups have allergies and she did amazing at accommodating them and taking really great care of them. We will definitely book with her again.
Donna was absolutely incredible taking care of my cat and house sitting! I came back to a clean home and happy guy :) she went absolutely above and beyond and was very communicative and sent me so many pictures of my cat and his food and litter so I could be at ease knowing he was safe and healthy! Will be booking her every time I go away!
Bridgette showed up on time and was great with my Pups. They loved her and missed her the minute she left. One of my pups is terrified of fireworks but Bridgette went the extra mile to comfort him and protect him from the fireworks. We will definitely be using Bridgette again.
Victoria waa very good with Lucy. She waa able to give her meds and adhere to her feeding regimen. She sent pics of Lucy at different times even when walking her which she loves. She also washed our dishes up and kept things tidy. Will definitely call her again when we need a sitter.

FAQs for House Sitting - Avenue of Oaks
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Avenue of Oaks on Rover is $49.95 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 1,616 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Avenue of Oaks. 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 Avenue of Oaks 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 Avenue of Oaks 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 Avenue of Oaks 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.
