“Katelyn was very conscientious and followed all instructions to a “T.” I did not have to worry about anything, as she communicated often and asked questions if she was unsure about something. The house was spotless when we returned! I would not hesitate to have her sit our boys again.”
“Hannah took great care of my two! The house was just the way I left it! I was able to focus my attention on my work trip instead of worrying about my dogs at home while under Hannah’s care. Thank you!!”
“Kathleen is very kind and kept me updated while I was gone. When I got back Junebug looked like she had an amazing stay-cation with Kathleen. My house was in better condition than I left it as well. A++++”
About: Growing up around dogs taught me how much love and companionship pets bring into our lives. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s playing fetch, going for walks, giving belly rubs, or just keeping them company. My goal is to make every pet feel happy, comfortable, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so making sure pets feel loved, comfortable, and cared for is something I genuinely enjoy. I also understand the importance of sticking to each pet’s routine to help them feel safe and at ease while their owner is away. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I make sure they have fresh food and water, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), and any special routines to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I keep a clean, safe environment and provide updates with photos so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away. My goal is to make every pet feel happy, relaxed, and well cared for until their family returns.
About: I have cared for animals for most of my life, including dogs, cats, birds, and fish. I have also regularly helped neighbors, friends, and church members with their pets. I am dependable, attentive, and happy to follow each pet’s normal routine while giving them plenty of care and affection. I currently work part-time, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention they need. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the week. I will carefully follow your instructions and respect your pet’s normal routine. I understand that every animal has different needs, comfort levels, and boundaries. I will make sure your pet receives attentive care and will keep you updated during each visit.
“Our third time having Tristen watch our pups while we’re away and not the last! She always takes great care of them, and leave our house just as we left it. Shes wonderful!”
“Bree did an excellent job looking over our little guy. She is very knowledgeable about puppies and we would recommend her to anyone who needs help with their pets.”
About: Animal lover with 10+ years of fostering experience for dogs and cats of all ages. I'm knowledgeable in senior animal care and medication administration. With 5 dogs and 10 cats of my own, I bring a deeply caring approach to every pet. My schedule is wide open and very flexible, so I'm available daily to help with your pets! I have open availability and have flexible working hours. I would more than love to ensure your pets are taken care of and loved on! Safety and comfortably are essential to me as a pet sitter and animal lover. I understand that with those a pet can truly be comfortable in the care of another.
“Kaitlyn was amazing! I’m so thankful we found her. Oliver found his new best friend that gave him lots of love & hugs, played with him, and took such good care of him. She kept me constantly updated that made me felt at ease while I was away from my baby.”
“Francesca did great. Our dog was happy and healthy when we returned. She communicated promptly with us when we checked in and we wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to her again when needed.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Double Oak
Ashton was absolutely fantastic, watching our bichon frise, Alfredo! He went above and beyond, keeping us updated with pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Alfredo was happy and well cared for – we couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
Annie was fantastic taking care of my 2 kitties and had my shy girl on the couch with her on the first night! I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking again for our next trip! She handled medications and food perfectly, for once I really did not have to worry while I was gone. Lots of updates and pictures as well!

FAQs for House Sitting - Double Oak
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Double Oak on Rover is $34.97 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 5,117 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Double Oak. 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 Double 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 Double 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 Double 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 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.
