About: I love dogs. I have had a dog, sometimes two or even three, since i started living on my own at the age of 19. I usually petsit for my coworkers both dogs and cats. I love pets. I can pet sit Moday - Friday. I can sometimes work on the weekends. Sundays I go to church and i try to use it to be a day of relaxation. I have two dogs and a cat at my house and would rather not bring other peoples pets to my house. I can go to your home if that is what is needed.
“Pups seemed quite happy with Lydia and she was wonderful providing initial meet & greet and then being extremely punctual arriving at the crack of dawn so we could get an early start and staying until we returned the following evening. She sent photos through our absence so we felt assured that all was well & even let these spoiled pups sleep with her!”
“Ciara was incredible with our dogs! She took extra time to get to know them and make them comfortable. And she made sure that they were happy and well cared for. It made me relax on my business trip. I would ABSOLUTELY book Ciara again for my fur babies! ?”
“Katherine was absolutely amazing with not only my pets but also their overly worried owner! Both my pets and my house were very well taken care of during my vacation. Will definitely request her services next time I head out of town. You’re seriously the best Katherine!”
About: I can take care of your furry friends with love and care. Everything from feeding to walking, I will be there! Trust me with your fur baby! I am a teacher working in middle school. I love getting out and walking dogs and playing with animals to wind down! Animals are fun to be around, and I love every opportunity I can take to do so. I have two cats that I love on daily and care for. They are my babies! As far your home, I know to respect it and take care of your pet as well as I take care of my own.
“I physically can’t say enough about how INCREDIBLE of a job Jennifer did with our pup. She was soooo easy to get ahold of and always in communication with us. She’s the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. Our girl, Cactus, absolutely loved her, and we will absolutely be repeat clients. She even bought our little girl a toy, and trimmed her nails. Absolutely incredible in every way. If you’re looking for a sitter/boarding/Walker/anything, don’t hesitate. ?”
“I highly recommend Mireille for pet/house sitting!! She was awesome and definitely exceeded my expectations! The day we had to fly out our air conditioner stopped working! Mireille assured me she would be available for the repairman and would take my pets to her house if needed. She was at our home while the air conditioner was fixed, and kept us informed that hectic day. She also took great care of my dog and parrot! I got pictures of my animals and updates during our vacation. She put my dog's thunder jacket on when the neighbors shot some fire works off, and kept my dog calm. She also let my parrot out of the cage so the bird could eat and play on her perch. I have never felt so comfortable leaving my pets on vacation!!”
“This is the second time I have used Mikayla to take care of my dogs & cat. She kept them for a week. She is flexible and reliable and so sweet! When she showed up at the house the dogs went crazy with joy to see her, which made me feel so much more comfortable leaving them for that long. She had to give my cat medication twice a day and was successful, which is no easy feat! She communicated with me every day and sent pictures by which I could see that the pets were relaxed and happy with her. I highly recommend Mikayla!!!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Oak Trail Shores
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Oak Trail Shores on Rover is $42.8 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 508 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Oak Trail Shores. 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 Trail Shores 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 Trail Shores 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 Trail Shores 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.

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.
