“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Anthony! He cared for our severely injured pup with the utmost compassion, patience, and professionalism. From the very start, Anthony followed every single care instruction with precision, making sure our dog was comfortable, safe, and on track with recovery. Beyond just being attentive, he showed our pup so much genuine love and affection—it truly gave us peace of mind knowing our dog was in the best hands possible. It’s rare to find someone who treats your pet as if they were their own, but that’s exactly what Anthony did. We are beyond grateful for his kindness and dedication, and we couldn’t feel more appreciative. We are already looking forward to having him doggy sit for us again in the future. Thank you for everything, Anthony!”
“Joyce did a great job with Bellini. She regularly sent me images and updates on my pet's behavior throughout my time away. Communicative, reliable, and an obvious pet lover - I felt confident my cat and my home were in good hands during my vacation. I'll definitely be working with Joyce again in the future. 5 star recommend!!”
About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Ever since I was a child, animals have naturally gravitated toward me, and I've always felt a special connection with them. As a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter, I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. My genuine passion for animals isn't just a job—it's who I am. I am a full-time pet sitter with a flexible schedule, allowing me to accommodate a wide range of pet care needs. Whether you need daily visits, overnight care, or last-minute assistance, I'm committed to working with your schedule to provide dependable, loving care for your pets whenever you need it most. Safety is always my top priority when caring for pets in a client’s home. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, maintain secure routines for doors, gates, and feeding, and stay attentive to any changes in behavior or environment. I make sure pets are never put in risky situations, keep their spaces clean and calm, and provide constant supervision during visits. What sets me apart is my detail-focused approach and commitment to treating every home and pet with the same level of respect, care, and responsibility I would expect for my own.
“Amy was very punctual and reliable. She did such an amazing job looking after our cat, Kitten; he was so well cared for and happy when we got home. The house was clean and in perfect order. We will definitely use Amy again!”
About: Hi, I’m Amy! I am a responsible and dependable animal lover who understands that pets are an important part of the family. I grew up on a farm with several animals. I have always been surrounded by dogs, cats, and other furry friends, which has given me a good understanding of animal behavior. This experience taught me the importance of how animals have different needs and personalities. Therefore, I understand that every pet has a different personality, routine, and needs. So, I understand the importance of following instructions regarding feeding, walking, medication, playtime, and any special care. I work from home, and I can keep an eye on your pet while working. However, If this is an issue, I fully understand. I am available after 5 PM for my full attention. I am available overnights on Thursdays and free most of Fridays. I will do my best to work around your pet’s normal routine and provide dependable, consistent care. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities.

“Hunter was awesome. He was very attentive to our fur baby and respectful of our home. Hunter also kept us regularly updated with pictures and videos so we knew our puppy was well cared for. I will definitely be rebooking Hunter the next time I need a sitter and I will recommend him to everyone ☺️”
“Rachel was absolutely amazing from start to finish! She was very prompt with her response to my initial query, quickly scheduled a meet and greet, and came prepared with questions. She is very professional, reliable, and absolutely loves animals. Buster had a great time with Rachel! She stayed with him for three days and I came home to a spotless home and a happy dog. She reviewed all the instructions in depth and consistently provided me with updates and cute little videos of Buster. I will absolutely be using Rachel again in the future and can wholeheartedly recommend her to others.”
About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages and temperaments, from playful puppies to gentle seniors. My background includes basic obedience training, administering medications, and providing calm, consistent care for anxious pets. I treat every animal as if they were my own, focusing on their safety, comfort, and happiness. Whether it’s a walk, overnight stay, or special-needs care, I make sure your pet feels loved and secure while you’re away. Taking care of a pet is an important part of daily and weekly life. On a daily basis, pet care includes feeding, providing fresh water, and spending some time playing or exercising with your pet to keep them happy and healthy. Regular check-ins allow you to notice any changes in their behavior or health. Weekly routines often involve deeper care, such as grooming, bathing, cleaning living areas, and restocking supplies like food and toys. These activities help maintain your pet’s hygiene and overall well-being. Integrating pet care into your routine not only ensures your pet’s health but also strengthens the bond between you and your furry (or not-so-furry) friend. Caring for pets requires attention, compassion, and adapting to each pet’s unique needs. Whether the pet is in your own home or at a client’s home, the goal is to ensure their comfort, safety, and happiness. In Your Own Home: You provide a familiar and loving environment where pets receive consistent care. This includes regular feeding, fresh water, exercise, playtime, grooming, and monitoring their health. You can tailor activities based on each pet’s personality and preferences, creating a stable routine that promotes their well-being. In a Client’s Home: Caring for pets at a client’s home means respecting the pet’s environment and the owner’s instructions. You follow established routines for feeding, exercise, medication, and social interaction to maintain the pet’s comfort and reduce stress. Being attentive and responsive to the pet’s behavior helps build trust and ensures they feel safe while their owner is away. In both settings, communication with pet owners is key to understanding specific needs and preferences, allowing you to provide the best possible care.
About: I've cared for doggies of all ages all my life, both my own and for clients. I am comfortable with pups that require a bit more attention & have experience with administering meds, keeping food and water dishes clean & fresh, preparing specialty food and cleaning up any accidents. I am comfortable with giving baths, going for walks & frequent potty breaks. Getting to play and cuddle is always a plus! As I am looking for part-time work I currently have plenty of time for specialty pet care including play time, feeding, potty breaks, walks, or even baths. I have more experience with pets that are allowed free range of the house, but if needed I can safely crate the fur baby comfortably.
“Joliana was so wonderful with our cat, Siri! We are always a little nervous to leave our elderly girl who has some light separation anxiety, and needs daily medication, but Joliana did great! She sent photos daily and assured us that Siri was relaxing and had no problem taking her medication. Joli also left our home in great condition. We would definitely hire her again in the future.”

“I hired Zoe to do in house pet sitting. She made me feel so comfortable leaving my kids in her care. She gave me updates throughout the day. She let me know when she was going to be out of the house for errands and when she was back home. I got pictures everyday. Best part: the kids love her. Will be hiring her again in the future.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Charter Oak
Isabella was amazing. She took care of my 14 year old Maltese, Mochi while I was on vacation for 2 weeks. She kept me updated and sent pictures. Isabella is sweet, friendly and very responsible. I will definitely be using her services in the future. Thank you!!
Viviana did a great job at taking care of our three pets (1x dog, 2x cats). We scheduled Viviana for overnight weekend support and she was very communicative throughout the entire process. We appreciate that Viviana scheduled a meet and greet prior to the actual weekend support to take in the instructions for our pets. Viviana was also understanding with us on all of our instructions and small roadblocks we had including troubleshooting our electronic feeders while we were away. Viviana sent lots of pictures of our pets while we were away to help us feel comfortable. We will definitely reach out to Viviana again if we need any kind of pet support. Thank you, Viviana!
Tony was absolutely amazing with our two bulldogs, Hendrix and Benny! From the very beginning, he kept us constantly updated and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. He was incredibly sweet with the boys, spent time playing outside with them, hanging out with them, and genuinely treated them like his own. Hendrix and Benny absolutely adored him, which says everything because they can definitely be stubborn bulldogs 😂. What really meant so much to us was that on the last day, Tony could have left much earlier, but he stayed longer because he didn’t want them to be alone for too long. That level of kindness and care meant the world to us. Tony is smart, trustworthy, kind, and truly amazing with dogs. We are beyond grateful for him and would recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will genuinely love and care for their pets. Thank you so much, Tony!!
Kelsey is the BEST with our dogs. We love having her care for them and will absolutely book her in the future. She's so calm and understanding of our dogs, allowing each of them personal time and affection from her. We're forever grateful we found her on Rover!
Joyce is amazing! My babies warmed up to her immediately 🤗. I’m very picky about who I trust with my dogs, but I felt completely comfortable with Joyce from the start. She sent me pictures throughout her time with them, which I absolutely loved as a crazy dog mom! I highly recommend Joyce.
Tayanna was amazing! She made my kitty feel so comfortable and loved on while I was out of town and gave me updates throughout the entire time. I’m very protective and particular with who watches my girl, and I know I absolutely made the right choice with Tayanna.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Charter Oak is $54 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $38 and $62 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.

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 Charter Oak 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 Charter Oak 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 Charter Oak 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.
