“Jennifer sent me pictures of my dogs while we were gone and told me how they were doing which I really appreciated. Her communication was very professional and timely. She kept my home very clean while we were gone. I would recommend Jennifer to watch your dogs.”
“Jamie was great! She communicated with us and sent pictures. We were gone for a week and we came home to a clean house and a happy, healthy dog. We would definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve had pets ever since I was a baby and the age of 12 I started my own dog sitting/grooming/training gig. Ive been training, grooming and loving on dogs of every kind ever since! All of my family, friends, and neighbors can depend on me to take the absolute best care of their babies and I thoroughly enjoy it. I am currently working from home so I have full availability and plenty of times to care for and play with your fur babies to ensure all of their needs are met! I currently live in a beautiful home with a fenced yard and plenty of open spaces for playing, walking, and running! Your baby can be kept separately in my home if it would provide more security for you!
“I highly recommend Addie for house sitting and pet sitting. She did an amazing job caring for our two cats and two dogs while we were away. Addie was reliable, responsible, and communicated exceptionally well throughout her stay. She sent us pictures every day, which gave us peace of mind knowing our pets were happy and well cared for. She also followed all of our instructions carefully, and we returned to a very clean and well-maintained home. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would gladly trust Addie with our pets and home again.”
“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’m currently a veterinary assistant and a senior pre-vet undergraduate student preparing to apply to veterinary school. I have hands-on experience working with all kinds of dogs and cats in clinical settings, including nervous, senior, high-energy, and medically complex pets. Through veterinary medicine, I’ve become comfortable recognizing changes in behavior, handling animals safely and calmly, administering medications, and making sure pets feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Outside of clinical work, I also have animal care experience through shelters and other animal-focused environments. I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and currently have two dogs and a snake of my own, so caring for animals is genuinely a huge part of my everyday life. What sets me apart is that I truly want to build trust with both pets and owners. Since becoming a veterinarian is my long-term goal, I take animal care very seriously and always try to treat every pet with the same patience, attention, and compassion I would want for my own animals. I’m currently in Tulsa for the summer, my hometown, and working part-time as a veterinary assistant at a local veterinary clinic! Since my schedule is flexible, I plan pet sitting and drop-in visits around my shifts to make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, consistency, and quality care. Because animals are such a huge part of my life and future career goals, spending time with pets honestly fits very naturally into my daily routine. I genuinely love getting to know each animal’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I always prioritize evidence-based, fear-free style care and pay close attention to each pet’s body language, stress signals, and individual history. Every animal is different, so I focus on meeting them where they’re at rather than expecting them to adjust to me. Because I’m very familiar with animal behavior through clinical experience, I’m comfortable recognizing when a pet wants affection, play, space, or just calm coexistence. Whether that means lots of snuggles and engagement or simply being a quiet, reassuring presence, I adjust my approach to what makes each pet feel safest and most comfortable. Animals are truly my world, and I treat every pet with patience, respect, and genuine care while making sure their boundaries are always honored.
About: I have worked with horses as a teenager. And look after pets for a neighbor, family, and friends. I have a friendly dog that loves to play with other pets. Have watched puppies and senior. Right now I am at home full time so can have pets anytime and any day of the month. And have a car to drive. And have not met a dog that didn't like me. I a big front yard and backyard, have a big dog house outside, have a open living room and kitchen so have enough room for pets to move around and play. And I own a dog who is very friendly with other pets. And my yard is treated so pets don't need to worry about pests.
“Megan is truly wonderful for our 14 year old chihuahua- he needs a lot of attention and meds 3x a day. He is always happy to see Megan , Henry has bonded with her - which makes us feel good when we are out of town.”
“Nate was such an incredible sitter! His attention to detail and genuine care of my two pups was beyond my expectations. I received some of my new favorite photos of my fur babies and I look forward to booking again.”
“Kelly was great. She was flexible and communicative. When we got back home, we could tell that Sam felt cared for and attended to in our absence which is always a relief after being away, even for a short time.”
“Haylie was wonderful. We came home to a well adjusted cat who missed us, and in the best spirits we have experienced leaving him. She communicated so well and went above and beyond to take care of our pet, home, and was easy to trust. Highly recommend.”
About: I’ve been a dog owner ever since I can remember, I’m a small town farm boy turned insurance agent. My weekends are generally free for the most part as my kids are grown, so I’d love to watch critter kids when you need me. I am an insurance agent during the week. My weekends are available to house and pet sit. I recently lost the love of my life, my corgi Sadie. So, I would love to help with your furry kids. I don't currently live where I can keep your pets at my place, but I will gladly take care of your furry kids at their home.
“Rose was fantastic! She genuinely wanted to know about our doggos and kitties so they felt more comfortable while we were gone. She sent so many pictures, which I love, she also played with our dogs so much! She had very prompt replies and was very thoughtful during the meet and greet!”
About: Hi, I’m Emily! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and sizes.

FAQs for House Sitting - Mounds
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 414 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mounds. 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 Mounds 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 Mounds 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 Mounds 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.
