“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Sara stayed at our home and took amazing care of our two dogs and cat while we were away. From the start, communication was clear and consistent—she sent daily updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly loved having her around. She also left our home spotless, which we really appreciated. It’s clear she genuinely cares for animals, and we’ll absolutely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
About: I have over 7 years of experience caring for a variety of pets and absolutely love animals! I have pet-sat for friends, family, neighbors, and others in my community, caring for different types, sizes, and personalities of pets. I’m comfortable providing feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and giving pets the attention and care they need while their owners are away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved! I am a nursing school student. I have classes most days, but I do have time in between, before, and after, to take care of pets! I am more than happy to make time and will do my best to work with your schedules! I will take care of your pets like they are my own. I am comfortable keeping your pets in their routines and following any rules/guidelines you may have. I have no issues with pets being in my car so I can transport them if needed.
About: I grew up with animals and wanted to be a vet or caregiver. I have done Therapy Dog programs with Hospice and inbound elderly to bring the love of animals to brighten their day. I have adopted several adult rescue dogs, including Whippet and Greyhound breeds. As a child, I always had cats, including DSH and later Siamese breed. I support Adoption rescue and spay/neuter. I grew up on a small farm with cows, rabbits, and many visitors! I work remote from home weekdays and have a flexible schedule with more open availability on weekends. Conveniently located near Basil Griffin Park and Three Springs Roads. I have a 8 foot fenced yard, and have 2 fur babies (Shih-Tzu) that are very friendly. I live in a small residential community with various cul-de-sac streets safe for walking. I enjoy exercise and walking so incorporating dogs into that routine is fun and relaxing!
About: I have taken care have so many dogs and ages since I was 10. My parents have always had 2 or 3 dogs and neighbors and other family members as well. I would love to just walk them around for hours on end and play with them. I have a lot of flexibility in my day. I’m a part-time job That’s also very flexible towards the end of the week and weekends works best because it gives me even more time to play with your fur babies. I have a backyard and lots of different walking areas to take your fur babies. I also have one dog as well that loves others . But she isn’t home all the time some weekends she’s gone.
About: I’ve had my own dogs for years, so lots of care experience. Capable of handling high energy dogs, as well as dogs who like to sleep their days away! I am a student at Western Kentucky University, but I have plenty of free time in between classes to play with and care your dog! I can do midday walks or drop ins almost any day. Your dog will receive lots of love and attention, as well as long walks or trips to the dog park. I never take walks without using a leash and I don’t allow dogs to eat table food. I can reply quickly for any needs. If you choose me to take care of your dog, your dog will have a wonderful time!
About: I have always had pets in the household and have been responsible for my own. I have pet sit for others, love all animals, and will make sure your pets safety is my top priority. I'm currently a student but only have classes three days a week during part of the day. My schedule is very open and allows for a lot of time to look after pets! I live in an apartment and make sure all my pets stay indoors and would do the same while pet sitting. If I were to have a dog I would take them out frequently and give them the outside time they need!
“Kaitlin is amazing! She took great care of my bestie and sent me lots of updates. She is very adaptable and proactive when it comes to problem solving. She provided excellent care for my pup and I couldn’t be more satisfied with her as a sitter!”
About: My whole life I’ve always grown up with dogs. I’ve helped my family with our dogs from the time they were puppies. I’ve also had my own dog that had puppies and helped to raise them until they were able to leave! I currently work full time. I have 1 hour during the day and I’m done by 5 everyday! I’d love the opportunity to help care for your pets after work, or when I’m off on the weekends! I have a fenced in yard at my apartment with plenty of room for dogs to run around! I do not have my own pets here with me currently so no worries if your dogs don’t like to be around other dogs! I enjoy taking dogs for walk and cuddles on the couch!
“Kelly is absolutely AMAZING! ❤️ I honestly cannot say enough wonderful things about her! Not only did she take incredible care of my two senior girls, an a 5 year old, but she also cared for my sweet Jimmy, who has two very serious medical conditions: megaesophagus and laryngeal paralysis. Jimmy requires a LOT of special care. He has to eat sitting upright in a special chair, can't drink water from a bowl on the floor, and can't run around outside like his sisters. Kelly handled ALL of it beautifully! She walked Jimmy on a leash, made sure he was fed exactly the way he needed to be, and gave him all his medications. And on top of that, she made sure my three girls were well cared for and received their medications, too! Anyone who knows Jimmy knows how much attention and care he requires, so trusting someone else with him is a BIG deal for us. Kelly gave me something priceless: peace of mind knowing all four of my babies were in wonderful hands. I truly cannot express how grateful I am. Kelly, thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking such amazing care of my babies! You're a blessing, and I would recommend you a thousand times over! ❤️🐾 See you again in November!!!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Bristow
This was the first time we left our pet alone overnight. Sara did an amazing job. We got constant updates and she followed everything to stick to our puppies regular schedule. She asked questions and clarifications when needed instead of guessing or assuming. Overall I would definitely recommend her and have peace of mind leaving my puppy with her. We hope to have Sara as our regular pet sitter whenever she’s available.
Jessica did a wonderful job caring for my babies. I have multiple senior pets on medications, varying dietary needs and different levels of affection wanted. I have cats and a dog. She handled them all with care and meticulous attention. Regular updates were provided and she left my home as clean as when she arrived. 15 stars, highly recommended.
Laurie provided an excellent, peaceful space for our anxious pup to rest while we explored Mammoth Cave while on a cross country trip. Rio was relaxed when we picked him up, as a testament to Laurie’s calm demeanor. We recommend her strongly to others caring for anxious pups.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Bristow is $29 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $23 and $35 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 102 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bristow. 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 Bristow 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 Bristow 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 Bristow 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.
