About: I’ve been around dogs and taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember I have even help friends watch their own dogs when they are busy pet sitting. I work full time as a driver in a family business I work from 7 too 10 am with a break from 11 - 2 pm. And the afternoon I work from 2:30 - 5:30 pm I will probably be doing more at home visits than having them at my house so they can feel more comfortable. I’m around dogs most of time and they love me I haven’t had one dog that didn’t like me eventually
“Liz was AMAZING! She sent so many pictures and videos the entire time I was gone. She also brought her a bone that’s her new absolute favorite toy. I am so grateful!! Will definitely be calling Liz anytime I’m away!! 🩷”
“Michael watched our 2 senior dogs for a week in our home. He gave them their daily meds and while we were initially reluctant to leave them, Michael quickly alleviated any concerns with daily updates and pics. He took great care of our pups and our home. We would definitely recommend him and have him back the next time we need a sitter.”
“Dana is awesome. No better way to put it. When we're away and have a lot going on, our pup at home is never a concern and is having a great time when Dana is taking care of her. You can't go wrong with Dana and your furry family member.”
“Allison was so sweet and kind-hearted! I was so nervous leaving my kitties and she helped so much! She was extremely accommodating and went above and beyond. I will definitely use her the next time I’m out of town!!”
About: Hi, my name is Mia! I've lived in Lithia on and off my whole life and I've pet sit for a handful of families in the area. My mom previously owned her own pet sitting business in Fishhawk, which I sometimes helped her with. I lost my pup in 2026; she had diabetes and was reactive, so I am comfortable around pets that may have behavioral issues, or who need shots and oral medications. I love all kinds of animals and would love to talk more about looking after your furry friends. I recently left my government job so I currently have full availability. I can take dogs on walks, to the dog park, or anywhere else suitable for animals. Safety is my number one priority when it comes to pets. I want to keep your pet safe, as well as others who may encounter your pet when I'm watching them. As a result, I'd like to know about any aggression or reactive behavior so I know how to handle situations if your pet encounters other people or animals on a walk or otherwise. Additionally, I do not like using retractable leashes on dogs. If you'd like me to care for your dog, please ensure you can provide something other than a retractable leash.
“David & Lauren were great! They updated me throughout the day, took amazing care of Mona and left my place clean. That’s all I can ask for! I’ll definitely be using them again in the future. Highly recommend”
About: Hi, I have 10 years total experience in pet care. I have worked for shelters since high school, I have also worked for a doggy daycare, a boarding place, and also have experience growing up with my own animals! I currently have an open schedule! I am available Monday-Sunday for any type of pet care needs, even if it’s just to hang out and get them active for a few hours! I have training in dog/cat care, as I also have a spacious apartment that has multiple dog parks! I will ensure safety by creating a schedule for the pets in my care to ensure that they have the best vacation possible! I am in school for medical assisting so I am CPR certified and I am also able to administer any medications that are needed!
About: I currently have a puppy of my own and have had both a cat and a dog. Ive learned how to properly take care of them and make sure they feeling happy and safe. I currently have a part time job but I am flexible. If you're interested in having me as a caretaker for your pet you can contact me for more info on my schedule. I will make sure to create a safe and comfortable environment for your dog so that he/she can trust me and follow the rules given to make sure your dog is safe and comfortable
About: I'm experienced with both cats and dogs and understand the importance of reliable care for our four-legged best friends. Feeding, watering, walking, and playing with pets is something I am confident in doing. You can rest assured that your pets will be safe and happy in my care. I am currently working full time M-F 9-5 but have availability to drop in during the day locally and to do overnights while you are away for travel or work. The first part of caring for your pet in their home involves a meet and greet where we can all shake paws. Clear, effective communication is a huge step in making sure everyone's safety is taken into consideration. After that, learning each pet's personality and quirks goes a long way to making sure everyone feels comfortable with the process.
“Aliyah was absolutely amazing! She stayed with my dog when I was out of town for a few days and provided several updates throughout each day. Her daily updates and photos helped me feel super comfortable being away from my pup because I knew she was being thoroughly attended to, cared for, and loved! I'm thankful for Aliyah's compassionate care, and I hope to book with her again if another opportunity comes up.”
“Kali was wonderful with Ares! She arrived on time, took him on several walks and to the dog park, and made sure he ate and stayed active with a couple naps in between. She sent multiple updates throughout the day, keeping me informed the whole time. Overall, a great experience and we truly appreciate her care! 🩵”

Alyssa was very attentive to my animals. We did a meet and greet first so I can see how my one dogs would interact, and he warmed up to her quickly, so it was an easy decision She paid great detail to their schedule and sent pix of them which made me feel comfortable. I used her for an overnight service since the animals are used to someone always being here. i will defiantly use again in the future and will recommend. Thanks Alyssa!

The average cost of House Sitting in Durant is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $44 and $44 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.

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 Durant 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 Durant 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 Durant 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.

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.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
