“Our cat, olive, loved when Jamie visited! She sent photos and videos throughout the time she watched olive and always let us know when she was heading over to the house. She even cleaned out the liter genie on the last day. We would definitely use Jamie again in the future!”
About: With previous experience in dog grooming and multiple pet experiences ranging from small dogs to large I’ll ensure proper care and handling of your pet! Working under contract so work schedule is certain if there is a time you scheduled I will certainly be more than happy to be there. Currently have a toy poodle that is happy and healthy, housed with a big fenced yard and a lot of toys I’ll ensure your pet is accompanied with the upmost care and respect.
About: I've had pets or lived in homes with pets for most of my life, starting when I was a teenager, so caring for and sharing space with animals has always been a natural part of my everyday life. Over the years, I've become comfortable with the different personalities, routines, and needs that come with sharing a home with animals. I understand that every pet is different, and I take the time to get to know their individual habits and temperament rather than treating every animal the same. I'm attentive to the little things that help pets feel comfortable and secure—keeping to their normal routines, giving them plenty of affection and attention, and making sure they have the care and companionship they need while their people are away. I'm also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are doing well. Above all, I treat caring for someone's pet as a responsibility I take seriously. My goal is for your and your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you're away. I have a fairly flexible schedule, so I can be available when your pets need me. I'm available for walks and drop-in visits throughout the day, and for house sitting I'm able to spend much of the day at your home with your pets rather than leaving them alone for long stretches. Whether your dog needs a good walk, your cat needs some company and a little playtime, or your pets simply need someone around while you're away, I'm happy to work their normal routines into my day. I'll take the time to understand what each pet is used to and make sure they get the care, exercise, attention, and companionship they need. Whether I'm caring for your pets in your home or taking them out for a walk, safety comes first. I take the time to understand each pet's personality, routine, and boundaries, and I'll follow your instructions carefully. When house sitting, I treat your home with the same respect and care I'd want from someone staying in mine. I'll make sure doors and gates are secure, keep things clean and tidy and in their place, and pay attention to anything that seems unusual or out of the ordinary. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages throughout the booking, because I know how reassuring it is to see that your pets are happy and doing well. If I notice anything concerning, I'll let you know promptly rather than assuming it's nothing. My goal is for you to feel comfortable knowing that your pets—and your home—are in good hands while you're away.

“Brittany was amazing! It was our first time using the app and she put us at ease very quickly. She was open for a meet&greet the day we reached out. Benny was comfortable with her from the beginning which made everything SO much better! We will definitely be reaching out again, if we ever need help with our boy Benny!”

About: I grew up taking care of the 2 dogs in my household, as well as my grandmother and neighbor's pets while they were away from home. I've been caring for dogs at all stages of their life, from puppies all the way up to senior dogs. (My girl is now 7, and I had a senior dog that recently passed away.) My grandmother and dad also had many cats, so I’m also very comfortable with them and love them to death. I would often volunteer at the animal shelter back home on the weekends and I have had a lot of experience working with not only with smaller pets, but with larger animals as well. I spent a summer volunteering at a barn taking care of the horses there. I'm in the Navy and work evenings, so I have a bunch of free-time in the morning on weekdays and all day during weekends to take care of your pets. Hours sometimes get switched around, but I’ll always be able to make time for your furry friend(s). I'm very attentive to a pet's needs, and will provide them top-notch care. I can follow directions well, and won't just give them the bare minimum when it comes to your beloved family member. Id treat them as if they were my own.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Oak Harbor
We booked Nicole and Cody for drop ins for our dogs while we were on vacation. We booked one hour visits twice a day for 5 days. A few visits did end up being about 30 ish min but the dogs were fed and had plenty of backyard time and that's what matters. Pictures were provided everyday that showed them warming to the Rovers and having a good time. One of our dogs is on a daily allergy medicine and the rovers seem to have gotten him to take it every day! This was our first time using Rover and probably won't be our last.
Miss Alyssa did wonderful with our Milo. Milo has never eaten with his pet sitters, but he did with her. She took her time with Milo, played with Milo, and ensured he went potty. She sent updates, photos, which helped me relax as I am someone who stresses easily. My house was left the same as we left it and she even washed Milo’s food bowl and spoon. She has set the bar so high when it comes to pet sitters. We hope to work with her again as we are highly satisfied with her pet care skills. Thank you again from the botttom of our hearts.
We booked Sara for a drop in visit for our two pups. She was reliable and communicated well during her time with our pups. We received lots of updates and pictures which was appreciated since one of our dogs can be anxious when we are away. Would recommend to others and will definitely book again!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Oak Harbor stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Harbor 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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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 Harbor with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
