âEmily went above and beyond when it came to taking care of our fur baby. She gave updates throughout her visit and we came home to the house looking just as we left it, very clean! Would definitely recommend her. Sheâs amazing!â
About: I've grown up around animals from cats and dogs to cows and horses. Big or small, I love them all. Outside of my own, I've been taking care of animals for the past 15+ years. You won't have to question if your pet is okay, because I communicate as much or as little as you prefer. The main thing I have to schedule around is my once a month weekend training. Other than that, I will be clear on my availability so that you don't have to question if I'm available or not. I live with a large dog, 2 medium dogs, and a cat of my own, so I'm okay with variety. If you have specific conditions or instructions for your pet, I will follow them to the T to ensure your pet is getting the best care.
About: Iâve taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old. Iâve always had multiple dogs at a time growing up as well. I love animals and it would be a pleasure to keep your fur babies safe while youâre away! 𩷠I work mostly part time at a restaurant! My shifts are only 4-5 hour shifts! I work 4 days out of the work week and 1 day on the weekend! I care for the pets by making sure they are fed and taken care of! Potty breaks of course & if any of the pets need any medications.
âKarina was great!!! She dog/house sat for 5 nights. I could tell she paid attention to all the notes I left her (which was a crazy amount lol) and kept the dogs in their normal routine. Itâs been such a relief to find someone we trust to stay at our home with our doggies while weâre away. Highly recommend! đâ
âGenesis took care of my four dogs, in my home, for a week and did a tremendous job! Sheâs super sweet and very conscientious. Iâll be using her again! Thank you so much, Genesis!! â¤ď¸â
âIt was my first time using Rover and Rachel made sure it was a good experience. She clarified any needs for the dogs, asked what was acceptable to not cross any boundaries already set, and made sure they had an enjoyable day. Couldnât be happier to have them watched by her. Would recommend her if you need a sitter.â
About: I care for pets of all ages, including seniors and special needs. Iâm experienced with medication, basic training, and always tailor care to each petâs needs. Caring for pets is a joyful part of my day. I love spending time walking, playing, and making sure each pet feels safe and happy whenever Iâm with them. I provide attentive care tailored to each petâs needs, whether at my home or yours. I follow their routines closelyâfeeding, walking, playtime, and restâwhile ensuring a safe and loving environment. Iâm experienced with administering medication and handling special needs to keep pets comfortable and happy.
About: I got a dog just recently and I love her as if she's my own daughter. I am a better person because of her, and I am so glad that I rescued her and gave her a home with so much love and attention. I do a lot of work at home stuff on my PC as well as a lot of Doordash, Instacart, etc. when I am not busy at home. I am very flexible and care about giving humans and animals a sense of safety when dealing with me. I tell them and show them what I do as well as have an open conversation about everything upfront. I honestly like getting to know people first before doing business.
About: I'm ready to spoil your fur babies with endless love, belly rubs and top notch care while you're away. I'll treat them just like my own and send you plenty of cute photo updates. I can't wait to become your pet's new best friend! I am currently working full time and will be available anytime after 5pm and on the weekends. I offer drop ins and also dog walking. I can come walk, play with, feed your dog or cat, in your own home. I will follow your care instructions and ensure your baby receives top notch care while you're away.
âKali did an incredible job of looking after our dogs. We had plenty of updates and photos and the house was left spotless. Will definitely use Kali again and highly recommend her servicesâ
About: Iâm patient, reliable, and I give pets a lot of attention and care. I make sure to follow your petâs routine closely and keep you updated so you always know how theyâre doing. Pet care fits easily into my routine because Iâm very organized and make time for check-ins, feeding, playtime, and cleaning. Iâm flexible with my schedule, so I can adjust to your petâs needs and keep their routine consistent. I focus on creating a safe and comfortable environment by following each petâs routine exactly and paying attention to their behavior. In a clientâs home, I make sure doors and windows are secure, keep dangerous items out of reach, and give pets a calm, stress-free space. I always handle pets gently, stay aware of their comfort levels, and keep you updated so you can trust theyâre safe and well cared for.
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong love for animals and the care I bring to every dog I meet. Growing up, I spent years volunteering at a local animal shelter, where I learned how to work with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. More recently, I cared for my own senior dog, Oatmeal, through his cancer journey, which taught me even more about patience, compassion, and the importance of making every dog feel safe and loved. I understand that pets are family, and I treat them that way. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I'll make sure they receive personalized attention and care while you're away. As mentioned above, I have personal experience with dogs with medical needs. This includes dogs with amputated limbs or dogs that have a strict schedule for medicine. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays so Iâm available to watch dogs for weekends or extended weekends! We have no pets in the home and are able to watch multiple dogs at a time. I have a fenced in yard with lots of space for your dogs to run! With easy access to walking trails, I am happy to take your dogs for walks during the day to try to stick to their normal routine. I also have dog beds, toys, and food and water bowls available to use.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitterâs 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 homeâs security or appliances.
Itâs 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 theyâll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your petâs 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 sitterâs 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, youâll 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.
