“Emily was fantastic with our pups. We are new in town, and it’s always hard to find someone to trust with your fur babies. She spent a lot of time with them and really gave them all her attention and put us as ease.”
“Chloe took great care of our senior pups! She was very communicative and sent lots of photos. She was also able to squeeze us in at the last minute when other sitter plans had fallen through. Would definitely rebook!!!”
“Sally did such an amazing job with Miller and Lexie! She sends the best updates and pictures! It makes it so much easier to leave them knowing they are in such caring hands!”
“Stephanie took the time to meet our 3 dogs twice before our vacation because one of our dogs is scared of new people. She sent daily messages and photos while we were away. Her vast experience meant that everything went brilliantly and all the dogs loved her like family. I will not hesitate to book her again.”
“Jeffrey is wonderful! He is very attentive to my dogs. I think they may love him more than me now! Even my standoffish dog warmed up to him quickly. He sends pictures and updates daily, and even put my garbage out without being asked! I highly recommend Jeffrey for your pet sitting needs!”
“Skylar is always who we choose to watch our dogs when we go out of town. They absolutely love her and she always leaves the house cleaner than she found it. Communication is always amazing as well. 10/10 recommend if you are looking for a house sitter!”
“Suzanne was great! My husband and I were in a bind and needing a sitter for our Chihuahua almost at a moments notice. She listened to his needs we explained and was very thorough with any questions she had. We will definitely be using her again.”
“Morgan was fantastic! This is my first experience with a pet sitter and I am beyond impressed! My dogs absolutely love Morgan. She was so attentive to their individual needs and sent multiple text updates, pictures and video. I was totally at ease while away from home. Morgan went above and beyond with my boys and even took care of laundry and cleaning. My home was actually in better condition than when I left. I cannot recommend Morgan enough and I will absolutely use her in the future. Give her a try! I guarantee that you will be beyond impressed!”
“Meghann is a star!! She was thorough, responsive, and so loving with our senior dog. Meghann sent photos throughout the stay, gave us updates in a timely manner, and was on the ball with every medication and task our pup needed. She left our home clean and orderly, and gave us final updates before leaving. 15/10 would book Meghann again!”
“Aaron was absolutely amazing caring for our 3 doggies for 9 days. We were super nervous to leave them, but Aaron made us feel stress free. He was super communicative with morning, afternoon, and nighttime check-ins with pictures and how they spent their days. He went above and beyond, even cleaning, washing the linens, and leaving a delicious blueberry breakfast treat. He was exceptional. Our dogs loved him and he will definitely be our go-to person from now on.”
“Emily is AMAZING!!! We were in Charleston for our son and daughter-in-law’s wedding. Our baby girl is NEVER left alone and is just under a year old. Emily took EXCELLENT care of our Lilli! I received text updates and photos from Emily. She walked and played with Lilli as if Lilli was her own pup!!! The second day Emily came to play with Lilli she was SO EXCITED!! That speaks volumes!! If we are ever in Charleston again with a need for pet sitting, Emily will definitely be our pet sitter. Thank You Emily!”
“I can’t recommend Katelyn enough. She took such great care of my dog and followed all of his rules and needs. Normally he gets very anxious when I leave and won’t eat much or go potty (poop). but with Katelyn that wasn’t a problem at all. He felt comfortable right away and it was clear when I got home that he had completely fallen in love with her. He ate a lot yay ! Her flexible schedule made it easy for her to let him out every 4 to 6 hours, which was a huge help. She also communicated clearly and often, sending lots of photos and updates that gave me peace of mind. On top of that, she gave him all the cuddles and attention he loves, and he was happy and relaxed when I returned. Katelyn is amazing, and I’ll definitely be booking her again.”
“Haley took care of our 5 cats and 1 dog during an overnight visit. All of our kids seemed happy and relaxed when we got home. Our extremely shy cats even came out shortly after she arrived -- this means they felt very safe with her. We were impressed; she has a demeanor that makes pets feel very safe. She took great care of everyone, and also gave medication to one of our cats. She sent several photos of our kids, which we appreciated.”
“Timia was great to our pups while we were away! She was a joy to get to meet beforehand. She took her time letting the dogs get to know her. Dogs seemed to have a great time with her here, and we came home to two well cared for pups. Thanks Timia for easing our minds while we were away, and loving on them extra well. If schedules align, we will definitely have Timia back!”

John was a last minute sitter and I couldn’t be more appreciative of him stepping in at the 11th hour or happier with his care of my pups. These two cuddle bugs can be intimidating if you aren’t used to triple digits and my sweet young male is often a bit wary of new people at first. Don’tworry, he warms up in about 30 seconds. John was unbothered. Within a couple of hours i was getting pics of the puppy pile on the couch. Communicative, caring, and tremendously flexible, i can’t recommend john enough.
Brianna was great! She was very accommodating to our pets' schedule and dietary needs. One of our pups had prescribed medicine to take of which he eventually figured out it was in his food and would spit it out. Brianna realized this and immediately took a different approach by crushing it to ensure he got what he needed. Brianna was very attentive and great at keeping us informed regularly of her interactions and observations.
Michael and Tracy are absolutely wonderful! They watched our two pups while we went to a family wedding and we didn't worry once. We were able to enjoy our time and knew our pups were in great hands. The updates and pictures we received while we were away showed us how comfortable our dogs were with both Tracy and Michael. Plus Tracy made sure to keep track of our pup's medicine schedule, which was a cherry on top to making us feel as ease. We can't recommend them enough! Thanks so much Michael and Tracy!
We met with Kelly before our trip. She was VERY good with both of our boys. We were very comfortable with leaving her at our home to take care of them. I would VERY HIGHLY RECOMMEND Kelly. Kelly provided walks, playtime and lots of snuggles which allowed us to enjoy our family reunion. Thank you so much Kelly!!
Madison was amazing! Our original sitter canceled last minute and she truly saved the day. She responded quickly, fit us in, and even arranged a meet and greet the day before, which was wonderful since not everyone is comfortable with big dogs. Our Mastiff, Melanie, greeted her with a giant “hug,” and Madison handled it with ease. She was upfront about her schedule and existing commitments, which gave us full confidence in planning. On the day of the sit, she arrived on time and kept in touch with excellent communication. We always knew Melanie was in great hands. This was our first time booking Madison, and we’ll absolutely be using her again. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Oak Grove on Rover is $42.18 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 607 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Oak Grove. 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 Oak Grove 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 Oak Grove 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 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!
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 Oak Grove. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 91% 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.
