“Gina was an excellent pet sitter, I can’t rave about her enough!! She went out of her way to accommodate me and my husband. I was due to deliver my baby within a few weeks when I had reached out to her. She was very flexible and was able to work with us given I had to be induced earlier than expected and had to stay in the hospital more days than expected. She took great care of our 3 boys- a Great Dane and 2 Lhasa apso’s. She was able to work with their special needs and administer oral and eye medications to one of them.”

About: Hi! I’m Roxana, and I’d love to welcome your pup into our home and care for them like they’re part of our family. 🤍 Get $20 off your first Rover booking with the link below: https://www.rover.com/sit/roxanr15345 I joined Rover because, honestly, I’d love to have a second dog someday! Until that time comes, we’re happy to open our home to pups who need a safe, loving place to stay while their humans are away. We especially love dogs who are affectionate, playful, and have a little more energy. Walks, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of attention are all things we genuinely enjoy. We live near a park, so there are lots of opportunities for walks and getting some energy out. Walks are always done with a secure harness, and we have two fully fenced yards where dogs can safely enjoy some outdoor time. We always supervise dogs while they’re in the yard. Our home is set up to make visiting pups feel comfortable. We have extra dog beds, bowls, and treats (with your permission!), and dogs are welcome to relax with us throughout the day. We also love bringing dogs along for car rides when we’re running errands. If your pup is happiest being included in the action, they’ll fit right in here. I’ve had both cats and dogs throughout my life and have cared for pets for friends and family as well. Every dog is different, and I take the time to learn their routine, personality, quirks, preferences, and what makes them feel most comfortable. Whether your pup needs lots of activity, a quiet place to decompress, extra cuddles, or a little bit of everything, my goal is for them to feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Your dog isn’t just staying at our house, they’re staying with us. 🐾🤍 I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! ✨ My schedule is flexible! I work from home 2–3 days a week (and even more during the holidays), which allows me to give your pet plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship. I’m happy to work with you to accommodate your pet’s routine. ✨ Safety & Comfort First Your pet’s safety and trust are my top priorities. We have a large fenced backyard for safe outdoor play, and I always supervise time outside. Dogs never go into public spaces without a harness and leash.

About: I've had animals in my life since birth, literally. My mom is a veterinarian and raised me to be just like her. It worked 😅 I am an aspiring veterinarian with a lifetime of experience when it comes to caring for the furry, scaly, aquatic, or just different members of the family! I have worked as a vet tech, so if your pet needs any sort of medication, I am highly qualified for medical administration as well. I am a full-time master's student at OSU. Most of my "free time" centers around the weekends but I do have more limited availability during the week as well. No matter where I am, I vow to provide any pet with the utmost amount of care. I specialize in belly rubs, butt scratches, and laser pointers. Also, if you want your pet's nails trimmed or anal glands expressed, I can do that too 😂

About: I have many years of experience as a veterinary technician and am in school to become a veterinarian. I currently own three dogs (16, 8, 1.5 years), a cat (6 years), and have a fish tank. I've owned many other types of animals and many dogs in my life ranging in size, age, temperament, and breed. I just really love seeing everyone's furbabies and helping out where I can as I continue on my vet-med career field ;) I'm a full-time college student and currently work part-time certain days after classes. I generally have the most flexibility on weekends. I can also be flexible during the weekdays (except for Wednesdays) anytime after 2PM as long as I have at least 48 hours notice if it's a request of service the week of. I will only be offering walking and sitting for pets in the client's home/other, not my personal home. Depending on the pet, I like going to parks, trails, playing in the backyard, and or whatever the client needs. Play time is also a must!

Yvette kept my baby in my home from Wednesday to Sunday. She was a phenomenal sitter for my baby. She arrived on time, kept me informed and was attentive to my baby’s needs. Upon returning home, my house was cleaner than I left it and my fur baby was happy. I will definitely use her again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Oak Leaf

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Oak Leaf on Rover is $67 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $67 and $67 per night. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 3,257 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Oak Leaf. 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 Leaf 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 Leaf 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 Leaf 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 , 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 .

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Oak Leaf. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
