“This was our first time using Rover. We had a fantastic experience with Kimberly. She was responsive and professional. She kept our place clean so we could come home from vacation to a clean house! She took great care of our dogs. So much better than how we used to do things where someone would just check on our dogs every day. They would always get into some sort of mischief and we would come home to a disaster. Thanks Kimberly!”
“Autumn has been a Gem!! She was great coming to the Meet & Greet! Asked all the right questions! When she stayed with the babies we got pictures of the kids (dogs) & she kept us informed on how they were doing. She’s hands down the best kid (dogs) sitter we could ask for! I’m sure our babies forgot who were while she was there to love on them!”
“Beverlee was so great! Cora loved her immediately at the meet and great and clearly enjoyed their time together in all the photos Beverlee sent! Thanks Beverlee, see you again soon!”
“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!”
About: I've always loved being around animals and have experience caring for pets for family, friends, and my own pets. I'm comfortable with feeding, walking, cleaning up after pets, keeping them on their normal routine, and giving them lots of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has a different personality and needs, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I'm dependable, patient, and will treat every pet as if they were my own while keeping owners updated with photos and messages. I work part-time therefore my schedule changes each week, but I never work all day so I have plenty of time to see your loved one! I volunteer at shelters and I also have a shelter dog myself, so struggles with the leash is no problem for me! I’d love to take your dog on a walk or come visit them at the house!
“Our pups knew Brianna was an animal lover as soon as she walked in the door. She gave them love like they were her own and sent pics throughout the 6 hour pet/house watch. We will definitely contact her next time we need a sitter.”
About: Hi, I’m Maddie! Lifelong dog lover with 15+ years of pet and house-sitting experience. As a dog mom myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your best friend in someone else’s care, and I want you to feel comfortable while you’re away. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality, routines, and favorite things so they feel safe and loved. Whether that means a good walk, playtime, or quiet company, I’m happy to meet them where they are. You can count on thoughtful care, photo updates, and the same respect for your home that I’d want for my own. Plus plenty of affection... being a little spoiled is part of the deal! I can't wait to meet your fur babies! 🐾 I work from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and keeping your pup company throughout the day! Whether I'm checking in on them at your house or mine, I can work around their usual routine so meals, exercise, and downtime feel familiar while you’re away. I’ve owned my home in Tulsa’s Turner Park neighborhood since 2020 and have a fenced yard for supervised outdoor play and potty breaks. I want your pup to feel comfortable, safe, and right at home! I’ll follow your care instructions, learn their habits and needs, and keep you updated with photos. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll respect your space and keep their routine as consistent as possible.
“Cierra was really great with our dog and cat. She sent so many pics and our shy cat seemed to be really comfortable with her! This was our first time leaving them with someone other than family so we were a bit nervous, but she was great! Will definitely use again”
About: I have knowledge with dog behavior from training two shelter dogs to get along, and can take care of your cats needs! Be it a walk, play time, or feeding. I work during the week so I return home during lunch on weekdays to attend to your dogs needs. I am understanding of people's schedules and can be accommodating. In my home we let our animals have their big personalities and boundaries with rules. If given details about your pet I will carry out the instructions as written.
“5/5 — Absolutely Amazing Experience with Rose! Rose was incredible! She took care of our pets for two weeks and went above and beyond every single day. She sent multiple updates and photos daily, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She followed my detailed written instructions perfectly and made sure everything was done exactly as requested. Not only is Rose professional and trustworthy, but she’s also thoughtful — she left our home spotless before she left! It’s clear she truly cares about the animals she watches and treats them like her own. I can’t recommend her highly enough to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again!”
About: I’ve been taking care of family and friends pets for over three years now on our lovely farm. All dogs stay in the house with me, but enjoy running across the huge yard for play time! I work remote from home two days a week and as needed for dog sitting. I have enough advance notice I can work from home the entire week. This allows me to pet sit for family and friends! I live on a 98 acre ranch. All the pets that visit love playing outside and snuggling at night. Some prefer to sleep in their crate.

About: I have had dogs my entire life, and have grown up taking care of them. I have always been the one to volunteer to take care of my family or friends animals. I want to give back the same joy and love to animals that they give to me. I want the animals to feel just like their owners are home when they are with me. I love taking dogs for walks, playing with them and just enjoying each others company. My husband and I recently got a puppy named Maverick and he is the light of our life. He is such a fun and loving dog and continues to teach us new things every day. I hope to share my experience and love of animals with all of you. I currently work from home and have a dog myself. I am always able to talk dogs for walks, morning midday and night and playing is anytime event in my household. I can adjust to about any routine needed to make the animals time away from their owner as safe, structured and as fun as possible.
About: I’ve always had pets my whole life. I’m very reliable and your dogs will be taken care like they are my own. Look forward to hearing from you Currently I’m available for housesitting, walking, playing, whatever is needed to ease your mind when you have to leave your 4 legged best friends.

About: Hello! I’m Tara, and animals have been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up caring for dogs, cats, and horses, and I competed in eventing through my mid-twenties—so I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, energy levels, and personalities. My significant other, Mike, and I work together as a team to provide attentive, 1:1 in-home boarding with plenty of supervision, exercise, and affection. I’m happy to accommodate special routines and needs (senior care, medications, shy/anxious pups, or high-energy dogs who need extra play and structure). Tell me what helps your dog feel safest and happiest, and we’ll tailor their care to match. I work in childcare part time and Mike is a gig worker with a very flexible schedule. We work together to give your dog the benefit of in person care. Regular business hours are preferred but not mandatory. We strived to meet your dog care needs and requirements while giving your babies all the love and attention they deserve. We may ask a lot of questions but the more we know, the better we can customize the care for your dog. We have a nice size yard with. We also have a large deck for lounging.
“Amber came for a meet and greet which I think is so important. She asked questions and sent pics while I was away. I felt so much more relaxed knowing she was here. And she even fixed a door handle that was broke ?.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fair Oaks
I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! She took incredible care of both of my dogs—no small task considering my puppy is an absolute tyrant right now and my older dog needs constant protection from his nonstop antics. She handled it all with so much patience, care, and kindness. She was an amazing communicator throughout the entire stay, keeping me updated and sending tons of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. You can truly tell she has such a warm, loving energy and genuinely cares about the animals she watches. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for dogs, and I’m so grateful. I would 100% trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, attentive, and just all-around wonderful.

The average cost of House Sitting in Fair Oaks is $48 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $48 and $59 per night.

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 Fair Oaks 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 Fair Oaks 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 Fair Oaks 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.
