“Jamie was wonderful watching Scotti and Loki while we were away attending a wedding. She came into the house and left seamlessly. The dogs were so happy when we came home and could tell how cared for they were. Jamie went above and beyond doing laundry and dishes as well. I would recommend Jamie to anyone needing a sitter to care for their pets.”
“Jennifer sent me pictures of my dogs while we were gone and told me how they were doing which I really appreciated. Her communication was very professional and timely. She kept my home very clean while we were gone. I would recommend Jennifer to watch your dogs.”
About: I've had dogs, cats, turtles and many other animals my family & I rescued since I was 4. We were always the type to pick up strays, and get them healthy again, but we'd usually always keep them. We had a big back yard they all stayed in, and they never went far or left after we helped them get healthy again. Now I'm 25, and I've adopted my own two kitties. They're my babies and I love their silly personalities. I work full-time, so this is for sure a side gig for me, which is why I'd do it on the weekends. I might consider doing it during the week, but for now, I want to see how much or little I can handle. I only really have an apartment, but I have a big complex I can take doggies for walks in, and make sure they got all that energy out.
“I had to go to Dallas for a medical checkup, so I left my 2-month-old puppy, Jax, with Kyle. Kyle truly loves dogs, and Jax really enjoyed being with him. He kept me updated every hour by sending messages and photos of what they were doing. Even when I got delayed due to traffic, he kindly continued to take care of Jax until I arrived. Kyle is very thoughtful and genuinely cares about animals. I would definitely trust him again in the future.”
“Ryan is AWESOME!!! I didn't worry once while I was away from my babies and home because I knew they would be taken care of. Ryan communicated with me every day and assured me that all was well. It is hard enough to be away, but at least I knew my pups were comfortable at home with a great sitter. I was more worried about Ryan being comfortable away from his home. Great experience and we will definitely be requesting Ryan's assistance in the near future! Thanks again Ryan!”
“Aubree did a great job! Her communication was great and our home looked just as it did before we left. She sent photos of our sweet cat and checked in regularly so we felt secure and comfortable with her in our home. She brought out the trash, and brought in boxes and mail for us as needed. We will definitely use her again.”
About: I have worked with horses as a teenager. And look after pets for a neighbor, family, and friends. I have a friendly dog that loves to play with other pets. Have watched puppies and senior. Right now I am at home full time so can have pets anytime and any day of the month. And have a car to drive. And have not met a dog that didn't like me. I a big front yard and backyard, have a big dog house outside, have a open living room and kitchen so have enough room for pets to move around and play. And I own a dog who is very friendly with other pets. And my yard is treated so pets don't need to worry about pests.
About: I’ve taken care of big dogs almost all my life, including training them after becoming a teenager. I’ve also had opportunities to help neighbors with puppies. I understand feeding schedules and those weird dog habits Right now I’m unemployed so I’m free almost 24/7! Everyday of the week, no matter the time of day. I’m a morning person so can be as early as 6am! If the clients home doesn’t have a fence I take the dog on a walk every 2 hours, maybe sooner. As well as planned play dates
“Lydia was wonderful in caring for our cat, Cleo. She followed instructions, was very communicative (many pictures and updates), took great care of our home, and most importantly, gave Cleo the love and affection she was wanting. We would definitely book her again!”
“Absolutely the best. Katrina is so thoughtful and caring with both our pup and our home. She is a wonderful communicator who sends timely updates with the cutest pics and videos. Highly recommended! A+!”
“Reed did a great job taking care of our older German Shepherds and house sitting for us. He took the dogs on walks and played fetch with them. I loved the pics he sent. Will definitely use him again!”
“Kensie stayed with our dogs and she was great. We got lots of pictures so we did not worry about them at all while we were out of town. We will use Kensie again in the future.”
About: I have extensive experience caring for animals of all types. I’ve worked with animal shelters, wildlife rehabilitation centers, and with exotic pets. Animals have always been a passion of mine. If you have additional critters, you can rely on me to provide care :) I have no problems caring for and feeding reptiles, amphibians, rodents, insects, birds, etc. I can administer meds and provide all day care if needed.
“Alex was absolutely wonderful, and both my dogs adored her! She sent me updates on how they were doing, and they were obviously having fun and being well-cared for. Alex will be top of my list whenever I'm needing a pet sitter in the future.”
“Addie had great communication and took perfect care of all of our critters while we were on vacation for the week. As well as our house. All the pups and the cat loved her. We will definitely be using her again.”
“Megan is THE BEST!! She went above and beyond for us and our high anxiety, giant breed English Mastiff Winston. We were out of town for 10 days. Because of Winston’s anxiety, he does best if someone is in the house with him at night so she stayed in our home. She sent us updates and pictures often and was even gracious enough to video chat us when my youngest missed his pup. The last few days were rough because it was the week before July 4th so our neighbors started setting off fireworks, which scared Winston. Megan called me right away and let me know what was going on. I was able to get our vet to prescribe him some anxiety meds and Megan happily picked them up and gave them to him. My home was cleaner than I left it for her and she thoughtfully left some little surprises for the kids (who adore her as much as Winston does!) I cannot recommend Megan enough!! She is seriously the dog whisperer and such a wonderful human. She’s literally becoming part of our family now.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Bixby on Rover is $49.95 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 455 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bixby. 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 Bixby 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 Bixby 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 Bixby 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.
