“Marinna was so sweet! Promptly scheduled a meet and greet shortly after initiating the request, and communicated up until the dates set for the dog sitting. During her stay at my place, she sent me a steady flow of updates/photos of my dogs. Returned home to find puppies tucked safely in their crates, with everything in order. 10/10 would book her again.”
“Julie has become our only go-to pet / house sitter. I travel for work and we're gone a lot. She offers tremendous peace of mind, knowing that our pets will not only be well-cared for, but happy. And our house is always cleaner than when we left. She even saved us when we experienced travel delays that caused us to return a day late. I highly recommend her!”
About: I have worked for a national pet boarding servicer the past two years and have had dogs my whole life. I have taken care of dogs of all ages I am a college student at UNT but live at home in Prosper on the weekends. I can be flexible and accommodate multiple schedules throughout the weekend I have a cane corso at home that I take care of. I have grown up with all size dogs from Great Danes to yorkies
“Mary was such a great sitter for us! She made sure our pups were very happy and well taken care of! She was attentive to our specific pups needs with high anxiety/energy and was able to play fetch and be there for them! Would highly recommend her for your next booking!”
“Jacie stayed one night and took great care of our dog and cat. She sent frequent pictures and updates. Everything looked to be in great order when we got home. She had even put the sheets and towels from her room in to wash. Would definitely recommend her to stay with your pets.”
“I can't say enough good things about Vivian & Shaeffer! She stepped in extremely last minute to care for my dog Gizzy Halloween weekend. I appreciate her willingness to adjust her plans to make sure I was comfortable leaving Gizzy. She was very communicative and prompt in her responses. She left my home significantly better than she found it as well. I will definitely be working with Vivian in the future. She made what was looking to be a very stressful weekend so much better. Thank you Vivian!”
About: I have taken care of dogs a lot in my life. I have two dogs myself and they make my life much better. My friends also rely on me whenever they need someone to take care of their dog. I have an open schedule so I can take care of your dog anytime you need me to. I can also work on weekends if needed. I have two dogs and I always make sure they have good food and water nearby. I always take my dogs for a walk because I know that is essential for their health.
“Shelby was great! She did a meet and greet the day before to see my boys. She sent pictures and updates. And she was flexible with our schedule. My boys were so well taken care of!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. One experience that shaped the way I care for animals was looking after my dog during her battle with cancer. She lived to be 16 years old, and during that time, I learned how important patience, consistency, and compassion are. I was responsible for administering medications, monitoring her comfort, helping with her mobility, and making sure she always felt safe and loved. That experience gave me confidence caring for senior dogs and pets with special needs, while also reinforcing the importance of paying close attention to changes in behavior or health. Whether your dog is an energetic puppy who loves long walks or a senior who needs a slower pace and extra care, I will provide dependable, attentive, and loving care tailored to their individual needs. My goal is for every pet to feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you're away, and for every owner to have complete peace of mind. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I typically work at a cheerleading gym coaching evenings from about 4:30 p.m. to 8:00–8:30 p.m., so I'm available most weekdays for morning and early afternoon walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting until around 2:30 p.m. On Fridays, I have even greater flexibility, and I'm also available most weekends. I'm reliable, punctual, and happy to work with pet owners to find a schedule that best meets their needs. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any special instructions so I can provide consistent, individualized care. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or taking them on a walk, I'll make sure they have fresh water, plenty of attention, exercise, and a safe environment at all times. I'm attentive to details such as securely locking doors and gates, using leashes and harnesses properly, monitoring pets during walks, and keeping a close eye on their behavior for any signs of stress or illness. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, so I treat every animal as if they were my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“Brooke was great! She housesat for us and we came home to a clean house and a very happy, un-stressed dog & cat. We could tell our pets had been well cared for while we were away! We’d definitely book with her again.”

I have always loved to be around dogs and would love to get to love on yours! I am a full time student at the University of Oklahoma! I only have one in person class which I would have on Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 11-12. During my bays off and after my class I plan to stay and take care of your pets.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was young, neighbors and friends have counted on me to watch, walk, play with and bathe their pets. I have two dogs of my own, that I love on and play with daily. We go for rides and the car and sit outside and play fetch. Be attentive to any special needs. Play with them indoors and outdoors per their individual needs. Also love on them and show them attention and affection just as if they are my own pets.

I highly recommend giving her a shot and booking with her!! She will put your animals first and give them the best care possible!!”
About: Hi! I have been dog sitting for dogs in my community, including family and friends. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I have dog sat for senior dogs, dogs who have Alzheimer’s, and hyper-active dogs! I am back at college, but have a lot of extra time on my hands to help give your pup all the attention and love they need! I have owned dogs my whole life, so I understand they can all have different living styles, attitudes, and personalities! I am there to give them the love and care they need.
About: I worked at Dogtopia taking care of boarding dogs/daycare dogs. I love watching and working with pets! I have always owned pets as well. I am a full time college student, however I have a very flexible schedule. I usually finish classes early in the day and have both weekend days to care for pets. I have a reliable car that can take me to your home/dog parks. I make sure pets are always safe and comfortable following any routines/instructions provided.
“Cassidy took great care of our fur babies! Our normal sitter was not available this time, so of course went with another. She took the time to spend with our senior pup when she needed it the most and also gave lots of love to our kitties and cleaned their boxes without asking. Would recommend or use again if needed!”
About: For the past 3–4 years, I’ve provided in-home pet care for friends and family, gaining extensive experience caring for dogs of all sizes and cats. I also worked as a kennel technician for six months before volunteering at WildCare Oklahoma, where I care for a variety of wild animals and confiscated pets, including turtles, doves, pigeons, bearded dragons, and opossums. Through these experiences, I’ve developed a strong understanding of the importance of providing animals with consistent, compassionate, and attentive care. I make sure every pet I care for feels safe, comfortable, and loved while having all of their individual needs met. As a dog owner myself, I understand the importance of giving pets the care and attention they deserve every day. When pet sitting, I ask for at least a week’s notice so I can make sure I have enough time to dedicate to each pet. During the school year, I take online classes, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I offer house-sitting services where I care for pets in the comfort of their own home. Along with caring for the pets, I’m experienced in keeping the home clean, secure, and well maintained while their owners are away. During each stay, I make sure pets have fresh food and water, plenty of enrichment and attention, meds taken on time, and regular walks as requested.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Norman is $40

Claire did an outstanding job house sitting and taking care of our our two German Shepherds and our little pug mix. She kept us updated throughout the week with messages and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We came home to a well-kept house and three happy dogs. Claire is reliable, caring, and an excellent communicator. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable pet and house sitter!
Jacie stayed one night and took great care of our dog and cat. She sent frequent pictures and updates. Everything looked to be in great order when we got home. She had even put the sheets and towels from her room in to wash. Would definitely recommend her to stay with your pets.
Brooke demonstrated her commitment to the welfare of our dogs by going the extra mile when our flights home were delayed because of weather. Can’t say enough about her diligence, dependability and compassion. Second time we’ve been lucky enough to have secured her services.
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Rylee! She took such amazing care of our senior dog who needs medication and a lot of help getting around. She sent lots of updates and pictures and was overall great with communication. We will absolutely be asking her to stay with him again in the future!
We were first time Rover users, and selected Steph based on her profile and reviews. We could not have been happier with the job she did! She texted us daily, and sent pics of our dog and two cats to assure us they were doing well. We would not hesitate to use her again. 👍👍👍

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Norman on Rover is $38.85 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 820 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Norman. 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 Norman 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 Norman 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 Norman 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 Norman. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
