About: I have always loved all animals! I've had experience with both small and large dogs breeds, as well as cats and a few other animals. If you have any special requests for your pet just let me know. Your baby will be very well taken care of. Please contact me if you would like to know anything else and I look forward to spending time with your four legged babies! I’m currently a stay at home mom taking care of my own two dogs, two cats, and fish. Being that I don’t work, my availability is very flexible! However, my daughter will be assisting me with taking care of your babies. I would love to come spend some time with your fur babies! I love playing with, cuddling, or just spending time with any animal (Though cuddles are the best)

About: I have loved dogs for as long as I can remember, and my passion for canine care began at age 14 when I first learned the fundamentals of training and responsible pet ownership. Since then, I have personally raised two dogs from nine-week-old puppies into adulthood, giving me hands-on experience with developmental needs, safety, and attentive daily care. Animals naturally sense my calm demeanor and feel comfortable around me, allowing me to build instant trust and keep them at ease. In addition to raising my own companions, I regularly help pet parents understand canine behavior and basic training through positive, clear communication that works seamlessly for both dogs and their owners. As a current student, my daily routine is structured to ensure your pets receive reliable, dedicated care without disruption. I have excellent availability early in the morning before classes, typically between 5:00 AM and 8:00 AM or 11:00 AM depending on the day. After classes wrap up, I am fully free for afternoon and evening visits starting after 12:00 PM on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and after 5:00 PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays. As long as visits fall around these regular class windows, I can seamlessly accommodate walks, feedings, and drop-ins throughout the week. I also have zero issues providing overnight care and weekend coverage, giving your pets consistent attention, company, and love while keeping their routines completely on track. Because I am currently in school, I do not offer pet boarding in my own home. Instead, I specialize entirely in in-home pet sitting and drop-in visits, allowing your pets to stay comfortable, secure, and stress-free in their own familiar environment. When caring for your pets in your home, I treat your personal space with the highest level of respect, care, and cleanliness. My primary focus is making sure all of your pet’s essential needs are met meticulously, from precise feeding schedules and fresh water to maintaining clean living areas and administering medication if required. Beyond the basics, I pay close attention to each animal’s unique personality and follow any extra instructions to the letter, ensuring they receive plenty of exercise, playtime, and dedicated companionship.

“I never thought I could leave my dogs in the care of a stranger . I have 3 toy Aussies and one has severe separation anxiety. 10 minutes in our meet and greet Colt who does not like strangers begged for Hollys attention and brought a toy he rarely plays with . Holly is such a gentle soul!!! I am blessed to have found her.”
About: I was born and raised with St Bernard’s, Irish Setters and miniature poodles as well mutts, ducks, cats, birds etc. I have continued to have pets in my life through my adulthood. The last of my pack of 5 has now past away. I love dogs so much I volunteer in the pet community and have a non profit to help educate, maintain and build off leash dog parks. Responsible pet ownership is very important to me. As someone who had a pack of 5, all sizes, breds and ages and health, understand the need to have someone you trust care for your pet, at least as good as you would!! Rescue, special needs and seniors have a special place in my heart ❤️🐾 I look forward to meeting you and your fur family!! I have a flexible schedule working remotely from my home. I usually know what I have to be in front of the computer for at least a week in advance and work around where I need to be and when. Because I work remotely I am able to stay with your pet. Let’s set up a meet and greet to get to know each other before you need my services. Your fur family is a priority. I love to share time with your family. If they want to play, or snuggle or just know someone is there. I am flexible. I work remotely the majority of the time giving me the opportunity to be with your pets the majority of the time. I also limit the amount of other families I care for at one time, so I can give more of my attention to your family. I follow your rules, or example allowing them or not on furniture, specific snacks, or okay time routines. If you allow I’d love to snuggle with them through the night in bed with me.

Megan helped us for a last minute dog visit! Our dogs absolutely had the time of their lives!! She took amazing care of our puppies and gave us some of the best photos of them that we have! We will definitely rebook in the future! She was super professional and so kind hearted!
Drop-in visit was mainly for grooming since, due to poor vision, I'm unable to safely do. Clover loves Gabriela snd is very happy every time she is here, whether it be for Drop-in visits or dog walking. Gabriela is very good with Clover as well as my cat Bonnie. She is a college student however and you may need to be flexible with your schedule to accommodate her school schedule.
Our family absolutely loved Nicole and her girls , they took excellent care of my Gracie girl , kept her company and played with her which she absolutely enjoyed, asked her for picture updates and she has taken so many pictures. I would 100 percent book with her again she is very good at communicating and super trustworthy. Gracie loved them so much.
Samantha was just perfect for our dogs! Very thoughtful and caring. Her communications were clear and sweet and we looked forward to hearing from her daily while we traveled. We definitely felt like our pets were in excellent hands, and I would absolutely suggest her to people looking for pet care

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Oak Grove is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $30 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 466 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Oak Grove. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Oak Grove 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!
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.
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.
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Oak Grove with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Oak Grove. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
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.
