“Katherine was amazing with our boy, Koopa, while we were on a work trip. She was very responsive, responsible and Koop was pampered while we were away. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Zubin took excellent care of my senior pup and was incredibly attentive to his needs and routine. I had complete peace of mind knowing he was in such capable and compassionate hands. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, thoughtful care.”
“Tori was amazing! Punctual, dependable and so sweet! We received daily updates from Tori showing how our fur baby was doing which gave us comfort while away. She is a fantastic pet sitter who we highly recommend! :)”
“Christian was wonderful with Gus! He kept me updated throughout, took Gus on his morning walks to the coffee shop, and clearly showered him with affection while I was away. I came home to a happy dog and a spotless house. I'd book him again in a heartbeat and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter.”
“Emily was very friendly! Our dog Skipper instantly liked her. She took a few pictures during their time together to let me know all was well. I felt very comfortable leaving Skipper with her. He had a great day!”
“Erin is very communicative, responsible, and willing to work with all types of dogs! She did great with our five year old dog who is a little crazy, and our seventeen year old blind dog. We will be relying on her again in the near future.”
“We are officially big Sophie fans in this house. She took great care of McGee! He wasn’t anxious at all when I got home, and his food, water, and litter were all fresh. Sophie even rigged up two of his stick toys between the couch cushions so he could play after she left this morning 🥹 We loved her and will definitely ask her back when we need a sitter!”
“Emily stayed at our place and watched our 6 month old puppy for nine days! She is patient, kind, loves dogs, very knowledgeable. She weathered the sudden -5F winter storm as well as a resurging cherry eye issue with the puppy, handled medicine, feeding, exercise and everything perfectly. She left the apartment looking at least as clean as it as when she arrived, and was very flexible. It was the first time we ever left our puppy and even though it was clear he was happy and safe with Emily, we missed him terribly and the daily photos and updates helped a lot with that. We've already booked another one day house sitting gig with Emily.”
About: As someone who’s always had animals, I know it can be hard to leave them and your house with someone new. I’m ready to make the transition as smooth as possible for both you and your furry companion! I’m a full time cosmetology student so I’m free after 3:30 Tuesday through Saturday to commit time to your animals and house whenever you need! And of course I’m flexible to come check in on them throughout the day, just let me know. As I have a kitty of my own, I want to respect your’s and your animals’ space. I’ll make sure they’re fed and their areas clean. That they get attention and play time as needed. And in case of emergency or abnormal behavior, that they are cared for or taken to the vet if warranted. I will take care of them with the love and attention I give my own pet.
“Emma is so great- highly recommend!! She stayed at my home for a week and took exceptional care of my dog and house. She was punctual, responsive, coordinated household items, and my dog loves her. She is so caring and a true pet whisperer. Grateful for Emma!”
“Brooke was an awesome sitter for my pups! I have an older, senior gal with mostly paralyzed back legs and Brooke made me feel super comfortable leaving her in her care :) thanks Brooke!!”
“I’ve used Rover more than 20 times over the years, and Rose was by far the best sitter we’ve ever had! She went above and beyond to ensure we knew our pups were in great hands, keeping us updated and handling every detail with care. She not only met all of our requests but exceeded our expectations in every way. Highly recommend!”
“Wow! Jabe has been so amazing with my cat- Tilly. He did everything on my check list and went above & beyond. Definitely deserves the star sitter title. Would recommend him to my friends and family!”
“Sonny was great. He sent us photos during our trip and everyone was happy and healthy upon our return. It's very nice to be able to have a peace of mind especially when your animals have special needs.”
“Lexi was amazing! Ozzy is very particular about who watches her but she gave Lexi no problems at all! She gave me updates and photos of Ozzy throughout the days which I very much appreciate as someone who doesn’t like to leave their dog behind and misses her very much. Lexi was also able to work with me last minute as I had a previous sitter fall through very last minute. I would recommend Lexi to anyone who needs a sitter!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Oak Hill
Alicia was great! Very accommodating and reliable and Otis loved her as soon as he met her at our meet and greet. She updated me throughout the week with pictures, and I know he felt safe and comfortable staying with Alicia. Would totally rebook in the future :)
Angela was great, communicative and kept us up to date with pictures and the activities of the cats. She has an emergency where we she couldn't stay a night and without asking altered the booking, which was greatly appreciated. Angela was also flexible when our alarm system was playing up. Our cats were well looked after. I would reccomend for sitting and book again.
Anna was great.....She came to our house prior to her stay so we could teach her what she needed to know. She communicated with us while we were gone. The house was in perfect shape when we returned. Also, my dogs were not clingy to us when we returned, which meant she gave them ample attention. I definitely recommend Anna and would use her again.
Emily is truly an angel! She took the utmost care of my Sophie and kept me continually updated with pictures and videos throughout the duration of my trip which put my naturally anxious heart at ease. Emily is absolutely my new go-to! Couldn’t speak highly enough!
Christian was wonderful with Gus! He kept me updated throughout, took Gus on his morning walks to the coffee shop, and clearly showered him with affection while I was away. I came home to a happy dog and a spotless house. I'd book him again in a heartbeat and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter.
Ariel is so fantastic! She took wonderful care of my cat - above and behind. Very responsive, took great photos, and made sure he was healthy and happy. She is a meticulous sitter and ensured she understood all aspects of caring for him, including his weird quirks. I would recommend Ariel to anyone looking for response, reliable, trustworthy care.
Delaney was wonderful with Valentina. She made sure to send me updates and included pictures. I felt very comfortable leaving Valentina with her. She was so kind and I can tell her love for dogs. I would recommend her to anyone. This was my first time leaving Valentina and she made the whole experience so easy and peaceful. Valentina takes a minute to warm up to anyone but she took to Delaney fairly quickly. Thank you for everything.
Utang is perhaps the best in-home sitter I have booked on Rover. My cat gets stressed going to a different house, so I've switched over to having an in home visit instead. Utang does a great job and hangs out for a while. I can definitely tell the difference. My cat is way less anxious and clingy when I get home when Utang is the sitter rather than anyone else.
Andrei was the BEST!!! he was very attentive to our golden retriever and spent lots of time walking him in our neighborhood and playing with him. He is very polite and thoughtful and followed all our requests and suggestions. I would highly recommend him as a Dog Sitter and will certainly be calling him again soon!

FAQs for House Sitting - Oak Hill
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Oak Hill on Rover is $54.39 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 2,662 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Oak Hill. 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 Hill 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 Hill 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 Hill 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 Hill. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
