“Amy was amazing with Axl. She took such great care of him and our house while we were away. Even fed the fish and watered our plants as needed. Would highly recommend Amy. Very professional and amazing with animals!”
“Lyle is amazing. Axl’s new bestie! So responsive and helpful. Took good care of our pup and our home while we were away. Left a log of activity and treated Axl like a king. We can’t thank Lyle enough.”
About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and genuinely enjoy getting to know their individual personalities and routines. Growing up, I had a golden retriever that has crossed the rainbow bridge. I’m attentive to their needs, whether that means playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply keeping them company. I’m patient, responsible, and committed to making every dog feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I also have experience caring for and co-parenting a dog long-term, so I’m comfortable with the day-to-day responsibilities that come with caring for a dog and making sure they’re happy, well cared for, and comfortable in their routine. While I was in school, I also spent some of my free time helping local adoption organizations find loving homes for stray puppies. I have a structured routine with flexibility throughout the day, which allows me to provide consistent and attentive care. I can accommodate regular walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship while maintaining each pet’s usual routine. I prioritize safety, comfort, and trust when caring for every pet. Before caring for a dog, I like to speak with the owner and learn about their pet’s temperament, personality, routine, and individual likes and dislikes. I make sure doors and gates are secure, dogs are supervised appropriately, and walks are done safely with a properly secured leash and harness or collar. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, and any routines or boundaries their pet is accustomed to. I also pay attention to each dog’s behavior and give them the right balance of exercise, play, attention, and downtime. I love sending pictures and updates to owners while their fur babies are in my care, so they can see how their pet is doing and have peace of mind knowing they’re safe, happy, and well cared for. (I prefer doing a meet and greet with the owner and pet before I commit so that both parties are comfortable especially the fur baby 🥰)
“Brian is great! He asked a lot of questions during our meet and greet to get an idea of my dogs needs. He’s really good with my senior dog who needs frequent trips outside. I definitely recommend him!”
“Diandra was incredible! She was so communicative and so kind! She left our house in SPARKLING shape- I think it was cleaner when we got home than when we left! She swung with some annoyances too- our house lost power in 95 degree weather and I messed up our days off and asked literally the day before she was going to leave if she could spend an extra night. She was super easy going about both. I feel so lucky we found her and I will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Milo is the first pet sitter we’ve had stay the weekend at our home to watch our 2 dogs and cat. We have an elderly dog with doggie dementia, a Staffy, and a 3-legged cat, so they can be a handful, but they all just loved Milo! Our Staffy warmed up to him right away, which isn’t always the case, in fact our Staffy sat in his lap and gave him kisses within minutes of meeting. We found our elderly dog was calm with him, which is unusual. The way our pets reacted to meeting Milo greatly diminished our anxiety of leaving them for the first time. Milo didn’t hesitate to ask questions and kept us up to date on our pets’ status. Upon return, our animals seemed calm, happy and healthy. We will definitely ask Milo to sit again when we go out of town. Milo has a natural gift with animals and the animals really connect to his energy. 10/10!”
“Christoper was great with house sitting our anxious pittie Layla! He was communicative, on time and sent lots of photos. We hope to have him stay again! Thanks Christopher!”
“We are so happy we discovered Abby through Rover! She stayed with our 18 year old kitty while we were away at a family reunion, and she did a wonderful job! Oliver is no easy-to-deal-with cat, as he requires medicine twice a day, eats only canned food, and also has a bottomless pit for attention. She was there for him, kept us updated, and we also found our home spotless upon our return. In addition, she kept our wild birds happy by keeping their feeders and baths full, along with watering our potted flowers. Over and above!”
About: I've been pet/house sitting for eight years now via word of mouth. All sizes of dogs, cats, and even bearded dragons. I believe part of why I can connect with animals well is getting to know each pet's personality and individual needs. I'm experienced in daily walks, feeding, playtime, cleaning, basic medication if needed, and plenty of love/attention. I understand how important routines are to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm and relaxed environment, I'm committed to that reliable and attentive care. I'm more than happy to update you with as many photos and messages as needed for your peace of mind. Lastly, in case of an emergency or even simply needing a resource, my sister works at a vet clinic I can always contact. I'm currently between jobs after moving and have an open calendar. I'm working on securing a part-time remote job that I can work around your pets needs with. Pets will be cared for in your home by not merely following instructions but also paying attention to detail, maintaining routine, and building trust with them. I'll make sure they have a safe environment, fresh water, and a clean/tidy space, making your time away from them as stress-free as possible. Exceptional pet care goes beyond meeting the bare minimum. I always emphasize caring for that pet's needs, so whether that's cuddles, playtime, long walks, or simple quiet companionship, I'm happy to match their personality/energy to create an enriching experience. Every owner, pet, and house is treated with respect and professionalism.
“Michelle was great with my Great Danes! She sent many pictures of them running around the yard, getting cozy, and just being their goofy selves. She managed meds, feeds, fun, and supported them through a stormy night. What I appreciated most is that Michelle is a great communicator! I would love to have her watch the boys again!”
“Renata is amazing with pets! She stayed at our home for two days to care for our dog Koa, our kitty Tiny, and our bunny. She did a great job, sent pictures and updates, and we enjoyed our trip knowing our fur babies were safe and cared for:) I highly recommend her. Thanks so much Renata🙏🥰”
“Skye was fantastic with our puppy. We were especially impressed by how attentive and proactive Skye was — taking the time to learn her cues and routines, working with her on training, and even noticing things that helped us after we came home. Skye was incredibly organized, communicative, honest, and took initiative whenever something came up. We came home to a happy puppy who had actually made progress while we were gone. It was very clear that Skye put a lot of thought and effort into caring for her, and we would absolutely trust Skye with her again.”
“Denise was wonderful with my dogs. I have 3 small dogs who like to have company at home and that’s exactly what she provided. I was able to relax peacefully knowing my babies were safe and home, enjoying themselves. I got lots of updates throughout the weekend including videos and texts. She left the house exactly as she found it and had no issues! I will be inviting Denise back for my next trip!”
“Judy provided great communication the entire trip and ensured my dog got the correct medications. She left the house clean and it gave me peace of mind knowing Judy was at home with my dog.”
About: I started dog sitting in 2022 for a coworker at the time, and since then I now have 9 different families I regularly sit for. I have experience with a range of dogs (from Toy Aussies to German Shepherds) as well as cats, which I grew up with, and some experience with fish and birds. I love all kinds of animals and getting to know their individual quirks and personalities! I am primarily doing online classes for school and working part-time. My working schedule can be flexible with advanced notice so I can spend the most time with your pet(s)! Whatever is best for you and your pet is what I provide! I’ve cared for very high-maintenance dogs that need multiple walks a day, special diets, etc., as well as very chill dogs that just come in and out as they please and eat whenever they want. I’m very flexible to provide whatever care the pet requires!
“We loved Elizabeth’s updates while we were on our trip. Our older dog Radish has a plethora of supplements and medications and Elizabeth was happy to accommodate. House was spotless on our return. Would gladly have her back!”

Diandra was AMAZING! This was my second time booking her. She keeps the house clean and tidy. The cats love her and even cuddle in bed with her. She seems to know what they need. She followed all the instructions very well and was great with communication as well, kept me updated with lots of pictures and videos. Great experience
Our dogs absolutely loved Rhiannon, which says a lot because our little rescue usually takes a long time to warm up to new people. She has a special touch, and they trusted her almost immediately. She kept us updated with great communication and sent the sweetest photos while we were away. Knowing our dogs were so well cared for gave us complete peace of mind and allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our time away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Green Oak on Rover is $93.84 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 2,155 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Green 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 Green 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 Green 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 Green 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Green Oak. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
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.
