“Angela was wonderful with our dog. She provided updates multiple times a day and did a wonderful job. I would highly recommend her and will be rebooking with her for a future trip.”
“Erin was a wonderful house+dog sitter and I would certainly book again. She had an immediate rapport with my somewhat selective, fear-reactive pittie mix. The attentiveness, presence and communication (including some photos) were exceptional throughout the long weekend. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for dogsitting.”
“Peyton was so patient with us and our dogs! She made sure they got attention every day, and our dogs were so happy and calm when we got home. We will definitely be booking with Peyton again.”

“Jabe is a great human and we were so lucky he was able to care for Penny! Just before our trip, Penny came down with a stomach issue, and Jabe was great with last minute instructions/meds/change in diet. He also hauled trash cans and washed linens/remade bed, etc. Thank you, Jabe!!!”
“We are so thankful for Madison! She took such great care of Milly and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She kept us updated, loved on Milly, and made sure she was happy and comfortable the whole time. It’s so nice to have someone we can genuinely trust with our girl. We will definitely be calling Madison again! ❤️ She was also kind enough to run the dishwasher and wash and dry the sheets she used. 100% would recommend Madison!”
“Paige once again was a wonderful house and pet-sitter for us and our 9 year-old Boston Terrier!! Super friendly, responsive and responsible - wouldn't hesitate to have her care for our Dizzy again.”
“Rachael was incredible! This was my first time using Rover for house sitting and Rachael made me feel really comfortable from the start. She kept me updated and spent more than enough time with my babies. My dogs loved her! Will definitely be using again :)”
About: I have a few years experience of taking care of animals, alongside living my entire life with two dogs. I have experience with all ranges of pet sizes. I am comfortable with senior care, medication administration, but am more than happy to do anything to make sure your pet is well taken care of! I’m currently a college student, so I am free mostly on the weekends. I do accept weekday requests, just be aware that I have classes during these days. on summer vacation, so I am free most of the day! I love taking walks and being active, and love to spend time playing with my own dogs! I have classes from 11am - 3:30pm with evening classes on Monday and Wednesday. When sitting, my focus is on the pet and treating them as if they were my own. I want both me, your pet, and you to have fun and know everything is in good hands. My goal is to provide pets with exercise, enjoyment, and attention at all times. When I’m with my own pets, I give them lots of pets, belly rubs, and playing with toys. I bring this level of love and care to clients animals anytime I can.
“Elyssa is awesome! Her background and experience was what caught our attention, but she really was wonderful while she stayed at our house with our pup. She went above and beyond to keep the house in order and keep our little one happy. We will definitely use her again and encourage others to do the same.”
“Liah's mom took great care of our two senior dogs during our two week trip. They have special needs, and she followed all of our instructions really well. She kept us updated with photos, and we came home to a clean house. We really appreciate all the care she gave Dudu and Bo. Thank you!”
“Ali stayed at our home for eight days and took incredible care of our somewhat difficult cat Scamp and our senior dog Phoebe, who has some special needs. She was warm, attentive, and clearly loves animals—Phoebe and Scamp were so well cared for, and we felt completely at ease the entire time. Ali also left our home absolutely spotless, going above and beyond in every way. She’s kind, responsible, and someone we’d welcome back without hesitation.”
“Yet another great sitting experience with Grace! She was prompt and reliable coming over to watch our pups. She left the puppies happy and well cared for, and our house as well. Definitely recommend!”

Paige was absolutely wonderful with our pups! She was incredibly responsive throughout our stay and sent us lots of updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She also went above and beyond taking such great care of both our dogs and our home. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely rebook with Paige!
I found myself in major bind when a sitter I hired didn’t show after I had already left for my trip and Lauren saved the day! Not only was she able to help me on super short notice, but she immediately put my mind at ease by being extremely communicative and asking thoughtful questions about my pups care. She sent great pictures and kept me updated throughout her stay. I can’t recommend Lauren enough!
Gina was absolutely amazing for angus! Angus can be a little stressed out when we leave for the weekend and she handled him with such care and love. Making sure he felt comfy and even asking what she could do to make him feel better. She gave updated and pictures and angus was so calm and perfect when we came home. Gina really was the best for our man and kept our home clean while we were away. I will definitely be reaching out to her again for our angus and I HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND 100/10
We had an amazing experience with Pamela (she goes by Kat!)! We are very new dog parents and were nervous to leave our Peanut for the first time, but everything went so smoothly with Kat! She was extremely communicative, responsible, and sweet to our little guy. She clearly loves animals and was so patient with him. She also sent us so many amazing pictures! Having a stranger stay in our house while we’re gone was also new for us, but Kat was respectful of our home and our things, leaving everything as she found it. I will definitely book Kat again, and am so grateful to have found someone I trust to watch our dog!
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 :)

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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 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 .
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.
