“Meghan was absolutely wonderful and took great care of my pups! They were all very well loved and cared for while I was gone. She was very communicative and sent me daily pictures and updates.”
“Oli was such an amazing dog sitter!!! She sent pictures and updates as I was gone and really made me and my baby comfortable. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Jasmine was exactly what we needed! Trustworthy and communicative, she took care of our home and pets (🐕 🦎), sending daily updates and pictures. We'll definitely call on her again!”
“Averi was great! Dogs, house, and plants clearly cared for. She was very flexible when our schedule changed. I am certain that we will book her again!”
“We had a great experience with Rachel staying in our home with our dogs. We booked her a few weeks ahead of time and she was quick to coordinate our meet and greet. Even despite the gap in time between the M&G and the start of the sit, she reached out the day before to confirm her arrival plan. We really appreciated knowing that she was on top of things! Our dogs loved her and looked so happy in the photos Rachel sent. We appreciated her regular communications and that she treated our home like her own. We would definitely use her again!”
“Aidan was great! I left my anxious hound dog, Dean, in his care over a long weekend. He was very responsive, and proactive about sending updates with adorable pictures. Dean does not warm up to everyone, but was so sad when Aidan left and was stuck with me again. I'll be using him again in the future.”
“Hollie is great! She keeps me updated and I can tell she cares about my animals. My house is always exactly as I left it. I will definitely continue to hire her!”
“Kyla did an amazing job. I had less stress with her taking care of my baby. Mo loved her. She was prompted, on time & communicated well. I will definitely be using her services again!”
“Really prompt and super understanding with some last minute issues. Dogs were perfectly content and the house was exactly as I left it. Would def recommend Alex!”
“Larry and I LOVE Emily!!!! I have booked a few times and she has taken such great care of Larry. Most recently I was over seas and Larry needed treatment at the vet. No questions asked, she sprung into gear to get him the best treatment possible. She is Larry's and my life saver.”
“Lovely gal who definitely cares about animals. Made sure my dog was walked, gave plenty of pets, and was very communicative. Will be booking again.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Alyssia! She stayed overnight in our home for a week while we were on vacation in the OBX and took fantastic care of our three cats. She sent daily updates with funny photos and videos that gave us total peace of mind (and some good laughs). Alyssia also took excellent care of our home—bringing in the mail and packages, taking out the trash, and cleaning up after herself. Everything was spotless when we returned. Most importantly, our cats were calm, happy, and well-fed. In the past, they’ve seemed stressed or even lost weight while we were away, but not this time. They warmed up to her quickly! We’ve already rebooked her and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter. Thank you, Alyssia!”
“Kyle took great care of my pup over the weekend. He made sure my dog’s normal routine was followed and spent lots of time giving him attention. Would recommend and will be booking again in the future.”
“Dogs were happy, Allyson sent a lot of pictures and had great communication while we were gone, and the house was left clean! Couldn’t ask for anything better!”

“Melanie was a tremendous choice for housesitting and petsitting! She was communicative, professional, and attentive. I never once worried that my babies weren't getting the care they deserve! HIGHLY recommend!!!!”
“Jordyn was great! She was available super last minute July4th weekend. We set up a meet and greet same day and I was able to show her the routine for my pup and she followed it to a tee. She gave me consistent updates and communication regarding my pup! I felt super comfortable with her caring for him and he loved her. She also was super respectful of my place. I highly recommend her!”
About: I’m an active person that knows how to take care of animals. I have an Belgian Malinois that is super active and know how to interact with high maintenance dogs. I work from home 4 out of 5 days. Have plenty of free time to do drop ins or animal sit for the day or night. Currently I don’t have animals stay at my house but willing to go to your house for drop ins or pet sitting for any day of the week.

Oak Grove pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kenza was such a great sitter, while we were out for an extended trip. She spent quality time with Benji and made sure he got the walks and love he needed. The house was well taken care of. She was great with communication. Would absolutely work with her again.
Catherine provided excellent care for my dog! She was proactive and consistent with updates, and she made my vacation super easy by staying at my house while I was out of town. It was so evident my dog loved spending time with Catherine. Couldn't have asked for a better experience.
As always Daniel was wonderful! Very responsive, respectful of our home, and its clear both of our cats are comfortable with him. Definitely one of our preferred sitters.
From now on Thane will be the only Rover that I ask to stay with Kipper. She was attentive, communicative, fully engaged, and addressed all of my concerns, needs, and questions. And Kipper loved her.
Jocelyn is wonderful! She is trustworthy, communicative and we're grateful to have her as our pup-sitter
We are repeat customers of Lynne! She is a great overnight sitter for our two dogs and we appreciate how much she communicates with us while we’re away. She is very thoughtful and caring for our girls! Highly recommend!
Amanda was a great communicator and it was clear she took great care of our girl while we were away, and was a great guest in our home. Hope to have her back next time, highly recommended!
Madison took such good care of our pets (cat plus high maintenance dog) while we were away! Madison was super attentive to the detailed requests we had for the pets, and she provided thorough and timely updates (and lots of pictures). We'd definitely book her again!
Mariana did a wonderful job caring for our dog Scout. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Scout was in such caring hands. Mariana was very prompt with our meetings and message response. It was so nice coming home to a very clean house and very happy dog.❤️🐶
Haley was simply awesome!!! Great communication throughout the week she house sat for us, with plenty of pics of how our animals were doing. Came home to a home that was clean and dogs happy. Would highly reccomend and would use Haley again!!
Egon was an absolute DELIGHT to work with. They were very communicative, asked great questions, and took excellent care of our older senior kitty and two kittens. They also managed some unexpected house stuff with grace and ease (including an internet outage and several service folks needing to come to the house to fix stuff). We came home to happy kitties and a spotless, well-cared-for house. We have already booked with Egon again and encourage others to work with them as well :)
Chloe took great care of our 2 hounds while we were away on trip with plenty of walks and cuddles! Would definitely recommend her house and pet sitting services!
We are so happy we booked with Ava! Our pets are truly like our children. Leaving them behind is never easy, especially when it comes to finding someone we trust to care for them. Ava was amazing from start to finish. She kept us updated throughout our entire trip and sent daily pictures which gave us peace of mind. We could tell our pets were so happy and well cared for. I highly recommend booking with her – she is wonderful!
Tyler is the best! This is the second time Tyler has house sat for my 2 dogs and she was wonderful. Very communicative with plenty of pictures and updates on how my two boys were doing! She is professional and kept the house clean and tidy. It makes it so much easier and far less stressful traveling knowing that the dogs and house are being looked after. I will definitely be booking with Tyler in the future!
I can’t recommend Caitlin enough. She house-sat and cared for my dog, Dusty, while I was away, and everything was flawless from start to finish. She’s incredibly professional, sent regular photo and video updates (which gave me so much peace of mind), and I came home to a happy pup and a spotless home. Not only is she amazing with animals, but I’ve also worked with her before—so I already knew she was reliable, detail-oriented, and just a genuinely good human. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pets and your home with the utmost responsibility, Caitlin is it.
Savannah took great care of our cat and angsty dog while we were away! Our house too. She was on top of communication and dog walking, and went above and beyond providing k9 emotional support during a thunderstorm. Would definitely recommend and we look forward to booking her again!
Such a relief having a trustworthy person watch my fur babies while I was out of town. Home and animals were happy and well attended to.
Lila was amazing! So communicative with me and very attentive with George! Would recommend 10/10, wish I needed a dogsitter more tbh
We had Alexis stay with our dog for five nights. She was communicative and flexible and clean. But I must tell you that... I'm half tempted to tell you that you was horrible. Terrible. This way no one will book her and I can always book her and she won't won't be tied up with other people lol.
