Kevin took great care of Shohei and earned Shohei’s trust quickly! He ensured Shohei got good walks even in the cold. Kevin was very communicative with updates and was kind enough to put away our Butcher Box food delivery. Thank you!

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 10 years old. I grew up around a lot of dogs and cats. I hope neighbors and friends. Schedule I work Monday through Thursday from 7 AM to 4 PM. Outside of those hours, I’m generally available and have a flexible schedule for pet sitting. My husband is also able to help when needed, especially during my work hours. I’m happy to work with your pet’s schedule and provide reliable, loving care. I’m happy to care for pets in their own home, where they can stay comfortable and keep their normal routine. I’m responsible, attentive, and respectful of your home and your pet’s space. I’ll follow all instructions you provide and make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for throughout the stay.

Monica did a great job with Lenny! She played with him outside and snuggled with him on the couch. He was happy and content when we came home, and we had peace of mind while we were out. We also appreciated that Monica came over for a meet and greet in advance. She was courteous and prompt. We would definitely hire Monica again!

It. was my first booking with Xena and had an amazing experience! She’s so friendly, knowledgeable, professional and my baby was comfortable around her. The minute they met he was all over her to play and was really worried that with his high energy it may be too much to handle. Xena was so patient and kind with him which gave me the peace of mind and will be booking again in the future.

About: I've been caring for animals for most of my life. I grew up with dogs and have experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. In addition to owning dogs, I've also fostered cats, which has given me experience helping animals adjust to new environments and providing patient, attentive care. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I work with each client’s schedule to make sure their pet’s routine stays as normal as possible. I’m flexible, reliable, and happy to adapt my schedule to meet your pet’s individual needs and provide them with the care and attention they deserve. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make their comfort, safety, and routine my top priorities. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication instructions (if provided), and any special preferences. I also make sure they receive plenty of affection, companionship, and positive attention so they feel relaxed and cared for while their owner is away. I treat every pet and home with the same respect and care I would give my own.

Gio is absolutely wonderful. She takes Daphne and Samson out every week and also stayed with them this weekend while I was away, and I cannot say enough good things about her. She is incredibly kind, dependable, communicative, and genuinely cares about them. I came home to two very happy, relaxed dogs who had clearly been loved and spoiled all weekend. Daphne and Samson both adore her, and I always feel comfortable knowing they’re in her care. I’m so grateful to have found Gio and would absolutely recommend her!

Veronica is The Mist Amazing Woman I have ever met. She showed and gave Toby so much of her loving nature that Toby was truly happy. I could see in the pictures he trusted her, he actually kissed her - which is only usually for us - and that means the world to us. We were so comfortable the entire time she was with him which helped us dramatically . We were 100% confident about her taking the same care with Toby that we would give - and then some. I can't say enough how wonderful she us. I already have her booked for another time!

I cannot recommend Jessica highly enough! She did an amazing job taking care of my lab, Daisy. Throughout the house sitting, she kept me updated and sent adorable photos, which gave me great peace of mind. Jessica went above and beyond with Daisy, ensuring she was happy and well-cared for. It was clear that Daisy loved spending time with her. I will definitely continue booking her without hesitation!

About: I love animals and had pets my entire life. As a trusted member of the community, I have grown up in this area and have a full-time healing business supporting people. I bring that same dedication, respect and dependable care to your pets and your home. I look forward to meeting you. I have control over my own schedule with my clients. With a small business, I can plan accordingly to care for your pets and home with dependability. I like to bring a calm, loving, assertive disposition to dogs--bonding with them beginning with good exercise. After which, I allow them to stroll at their own pace and share with them the level of attention they desire. For cats, I respect their space as they wish and am available to play or give them attention. I always look forward to giving any animal cuddles as well as respecting their space.

It was our first time working with MaNiyha, and we needed housesitting + care for two clingy dogs for a whole week. She was wonderful! She sent regular updates with photos, and we could see that the dogs really relaxed with her and trusted her. She even did some additional training with them and calmed them down during multiple thunderstorms! Plus, she left the house spotless. We look forward to working with MaNihya again in the future!

Ben was wonderful from his visit before his stay here through the entire time he cared for our dogs, cats and fish. He shared detailed updates and beautiful pictures, cared thoughtfully for our pets and asked questions when he had them. We can tell from all of our regular conversations via Rover that he truly cares for our pets as he would his own. Ben’s communication and care allows us to truly relax while we were away.

I simply cannot express the relief I had while traveling with Vanessa as my house/pet sitter. I have 2 cats and was babysitting my daughters cat, who arrived the day I left. Vanessa sent pics everyday of the cats snuggled with her or chilling in their fav spots! My trip was very unexpected, and it was my first time using Rover. I’ve always wary booked Vanessa again for a trip I had planned and was going to take my cat to my daughters, but it was so much more relaxing for them here in their home❤️

Betty’s stay with my two senior dogs and a cat coincided with one of the dogs having a health crisis and starting on a new dose of medication. Betty was a calm and reassuring voice and kept in close contact, looking for adverse side effects and keeping me posted. She administered meds twice a day, mixed up a special diet, and basically nursed my guy in my absence. I could not have asked for more. Superhero.

Annah and Meara stayed at our place with our two dogs while we were on an international trip and could not have been happier with the experience! They were quick with communication and sent us many pictures and updates while we were away. They also took great care of our space and even helped with putting the sheets/towels in the dryer after their stay since we had another sitter coming afterwards. Would absolutely book them again in the future!

Shakuntala took excellent care of our cat Marley while we were away for an extended vacation. At the meet and greet prior to our trip she asked detailed questions regarding our cats routine. She provides frequent updates regarding feeding, medication, and general status of your pet. Updates frequently include adorable photos of your pet too. :) We can tell Marley had a wonderful time with her and the peace of mind knowing our cat was being well cared for was invaluable.

Pam took very good care of our two cats. Unfortunately our rambunctiou 10-month old kitten injured his leg (not her fault) shortly after we left for two weeks and she ended up taking him to the vet twice, administering his meds, and looking after him while he was confined to one room on vet's orders to help him heal. Through it all she was very caring and concerned and kept us fully informed on what was going on. Knowing she had trained as a vet tech reassured us that the cats were in good hands and let us enjoy the rest of our vacation.

Toni is such a pleasure and god send when in a pinch. I found her last minute and I am so lucky she was available. Communicative, punctual, clear and friendly. I know she gave my dogs extra love, care, and exercise. Sent photos and updates on a perfect cadence without me having to ask. She’s a dream!

DJ is AMAZING!!! We have two French bulldogs. One can be a bit feisty DJ knows and understands dogs so well that he warmed up to her almost immediately. She took care of our dogs for a week and we came home to new and improved dogs - they are better behaved, not barking as much, being much better behaved on walks and overall the dogs seem happier. We are SO lucky that we found DJ - she is truly the BEST dog sitter/home sitter you will find. She goes way above and beyond!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Vitaly provided excellent care for my senior dogs who have ongoing health issues. They required medications, cold laser therapy, special diet, and careful monitoring. Vitaly kept me updated and reached out promptly with questions. I highly recommend Vitaly as a very responsible and reliable caretaker for your animals.

FAQs for House Sitting - Lone Oak

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Lone Oak on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 10,834 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lone 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 Lone 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 Lone 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 Lone 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 Lone Oak. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
