“Kevin was excellent. He communicated clearly, kept me updated, and took thoughtful care of my dogs for a house sitting visit while I traveled for work — especially of my senior, who needs extra attention. Definitely appreciated his reliability and kindness and will book again if his calendar allows”
“Melissa is wonderful with our two dogs. This is the third time she’s stayed with our dogs and we can’t wait for her to come again! Appreciate all the time she spent with them.”
“Karen sent me lots of pictures and updates! And she wasn't bothered by my bratty dog who growls a little bit when she first meets someone! She will be our go-to sitter for any future trips!”
“Great response time. Wonderful communication throughout the day with photos. My dog was exhausted when I got back so he clearly had some good walks. I felt very comfortable with Tsaitami!”
“This was our second time having Malek care for our pets and he is wonderful. Super responsive. He will give tons of love to your animals and is just a great guy. He has stayed in our home both times and we trust him entirely. Will definitely rebook next time!”
“This was our first Rover experience and our sitter did not disappoint. Xena was wonderful with our husky. She was punctual and communicative throughout the evening. We look forward to having her return for our next event.”
“Omar and Claudia were fantastic! Gizmo is easy going but Pepe is super hard to please, and they managed to gain his trust in no time. Omar and Claudia were punctual, professional, reliable and kind. They kept communicating with us throughout the sitting period and share photos and videos of our two boys. Their dedication to our dogs is greatly appreciated and we’ll definitely book them again soon. We really appreciate their dedication to make sure everything was perfect.”
“Rachel was able to step in and watch Riley on relatively short notice after another sitter had to cancel. She took great care of him and sent great video updates so I knew he was adjusting well!”
“Karachi provided excellent car for dog and home while we were away on vacation. She was very responsive to my messages and she helped to coordinate a trip to the vet when our dog exhibited some health issues. She left our home in great shape. I highly recommend her for both dog and house sitting.”
“We had such a great experience with Jade! She stayed at our home with Fig while we were away and took such wonderful care of him. She was communicative, reliable, and made us feel completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. We came home to a happy pup and our house just as we left it. We would absolutely have her watch Fig again and highly recommend her!”
“Michaela watched our nervous chihuahua while we were in town. She was great with our dog, sent lots of pictures and was great to work with. We will be using her again!”
“Monica is an amazing pet sitter. The dog was happy. The house was clean. She followed all the instructions provided. She was extremely communicative and sent tons of adorable pictures of our dog playing and snuggling. Our dog isn't the easiest and takes a while to warm up to new people. Monica did a great job gaining her trust and making sure they had a good week while we were away. I would highly recommend her and look forward to booking with her again.”
“We are so fortunate to have found Vitali! If you want to go on vacation and not have to worry about your pets plotting your demise, hire Vitali B! Great communication and our kitties were so relaxed upon our return that they barely noticed us when we walked in to the house. Meow.....”
“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❤️”
“Riku loves his walks with Aaliyah and I loved the regular updates I got throughout the weekend. She handled him well when he got nippy and followed all the instructions I gave. She’s wonderful!”
“Responsible and has care taking heart. Jasper was comfortable and well taken care of. I was informed periodically about his day with her, whether his eating or sleeping or playtime.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Lone Oak is $50

This was the third time Shakuntala stayed with my babies. I have a medically complex cat that needed subcutaneous fluids and several meds while I was away and as always she took such great care of my kitties. My kitty with medical issues was pretty sick when I left and I was nervous but over the 2 weeks I was gone she fully recovered under Shakuntala’s loving care. She stayed at my home while I was away and the house looked great when I got back! I can’t recommend her enough!
Annah and Meara were absolutely fantastic! They handled my anxious boy Boomer like pros, and the four night stay could not have gone smoother. They provided updates and photos and communicated regularly, which was incredibly reassuring. They also stayed late with Boomer when my return flight was delayed. Could not recommend them more highly!
Jessica is our go-to dog sitter when we leave town! She is so good with our high energy Aussie and takes great care of our home, always leaving it better than she found it. It’s not easy to leave your dog with a sitter, so trust me Jessica is the BEST and we trust her completely with ours!
Came home to a relaxed and happy pup, as well as a spic and span home. Not only that but Tsai left beautiful calming meditation music on to keep Oshie company, as well as welcoming me home into my space. Always a pleasure, will call on Tsaitami again in the future!
Leidy was great! She was responsive and helped us out several weekends in a row. She sent cute pictures and updated us each day. We could tell how comfortable our dog and kitty were with her. It's so nice to know our pets were in such good hands! We'll definitely contact Leidy for petsitting again.
Alexander did a great job while catsitting and housesitting! He was appropriately communicative -- not too much, not too little -- and my cat looked very relaxed and at ease in all of the photos he sent. I appreciated that he asked appropriate questions during our meet and greet, helping me to fill in details of my cat's care and where to find things in the house that I might have otherwise forgotten to mention. I returned home to a tidy place and a happy cat!
Vitali B is the best Pet & Home Sitter we have ever hired. He's responsible, trustworthy, and our pets love having him around. How do we know this? When we return they are unphased by our presence. I think they actually miss Vitali! We are very lucky to find Vitali. You will be too. Send him an email. He is communicative and reliable. You're pets are in good hands w Vitali. And so is your home.
Ashira is just wonderful. My 13 year old blind dog isn’t always keen on new people - but the moment Ashira walked in the door, Tracker went right to her! Tracker has special needs with respect to walking and medication and Ashira handled that all perfectly. Tracker was happy and so well cared for it has really eased our mind about going away and we will be booking with Ashira again! Also, my house was cleaner than when I left it!
Allison is the perfect dog sitter! She was wonderful and kind with our dog Blaze, taking him for long walks and taking very good care for him, while also being excellent with communication and looking after our house perfectly. We will definitely use her again and would highly recommend her. Thanks so much!
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.

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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 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.
