Jule is amazing. She is so caring and compassionate and my dogs absolutely adore her. She has such a calming presence which is very helpful, since my dogs are very excitable. She was able to help me out on very short notice, which made my life less stressful. I highly recommend Jule! She will treat your fur-babies like her own.

About: “I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 15 Neighbors, friends, and family have always trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and give plenty of love to their pets. I’m comfortable with puppies, seniors, and all sizes in between, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I currently work full time ( WFH ) , which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. I’m available for boarding on weekdays/weekends ( ANYTIME ) and for walks or drop-ins on weekdays after 5pm & weekends anytime. I love spending time with animals and look forward to giving your pups lots of attention and playtime. I have a large, fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and explore. My home is a pet-friendly environment with two friendly dogs of my own to keep your fur baby company. I am very comfortable using crates for feeding or sleeping if that is what your dog is used to, and I always ensure a supervised, high-energy, and safe atmosphere.

About: I've taken care and rescued all sorts of animals from guinea pigs to giant pitties. I have been in rescue for about 9 years. It comes out of pocket, but if I don't save them or help who will? I am also good at medication injection and oral administration of medication as well. I can do walks, check in's, doggy day care, house sit, etc. I will accommodate your needs for your furbaby. I am not afraid of bigger dogs as most people might be. I think of them as giant teddy bears. I will send plenty of updates and pictures as I know leaving your furbaby with a stranger can be absolutely nerve wrecking. Whatever makes my customer happy I will be more than willing to meet their request. Just give me instruction, your furbabies name, any allergies, medications, walk/yard time and frequency, feeding schedule, and any other information you see fit and I guarantee your precious furbaby will find a new friend! I am currently employed part time and in school part time this semster over at Johnson College for Veterinary Nursing. My schedule is pretty packed, but I will make accommodations with you to accommodate the needs of your furbabies or ones with scales. I moved in March of last year so boarding at the new place might be a bit busy. I do have enough room to accommodate at least 3 dogs. I don't have a fenced in yard at my apartment however I love to take them on long walks. I have walked dogs of all sizes. Super tiny to 100+lbs. I also have my own pupper Krypto so if boarding at my home please make sure your dog is other dog friendly as well as cats. I have 2 cats, 1 dog, 1 rat and a goldfish. If you are looking to board in my home I suggest a meet & greet to make sure your furbabies and mine are safe for their stay. I care for my clients furbabies like they are my own. I make sure the furbabies are happy and healthy. I will make sure my clients needs and wants are met. If you need me to watch them at your house, your house will be treated like my home. I will make sure your home is like you left it. I love to send updates because I know leaving your furbabies is really nerve wrecking.

We had a great experience with Lynne as our sitter. This was going to be the first time seeking pet care and the longest we’d be away from our two cats. Before our trip, we had a lovely meet and greet which immediately put us at ease. During our time away, she completed the drop in visits exactly as requested/agreed upon and kept is up to date with notes and photos each time. She even went above and beyond by bringing our packages in as well. It was clear our cats were well cared for and we would not hesitate to book with her again. Thank you Lynne!!

About: I am a twenty-five year old who is very passionate for animals and loves to care for any breed, shape or size! Ever since I could remember I have always had dogs/cats in my life and always loved them and cared so much for them. I would describe myself as a very trustworthy and respectful individual. Responsible for any task given and will always satisfy my customers. Never late to anything, mainly early. Have watched over my neighbors and friends animals various times when they were away and they never had one single complaint about the care given. Working with animals is a dream and animals are quick to like my presence. I am very active as well so I will get your animal to be outside majority of the time even if it is just to sit outside and enjoy the day with it when sitting or watching over the pet. Or if an indoor animal, will still give the desirable attention the animal needs! I do have my own cat, had her for almost two years and she’s my pride and joy haha! Also living around multiple other cats and dogs in the household I am in currently. I currently work for a cat shelter local to my area! Giving care to cats daily whether it be cleaning up after them, feeding them, caring for medical conditions, etc! I recently adopted my second cat from my job, she is a Maine coon, her name is cleopatra. Mentioned in my little description, I do own a cat of my own, so caring for an animal has just become very normal to my day to day routine I’d say. Giving the proper amount of food and water for starts (if that is needed for a client). Making sure the animal exceeds its normal attention level it would receive on a daily basis. Etc.

Megan is amazing. I set her up to care for my mom’s dogs after she had surgery for a broken ankle and was non-weight bearing. Megan was available last second, went to the house 4 times a day like clockwork, and took such wonderful, loving care of Louis and Brie. And was so very sweet to my mom. I had such peace of mind knowing that the dogs were cared for and safe and my mom could rest and start to heal without worry for them. If you are in need of pet sitting services in her area, PLEASE contact Megan. She’s a godsend and will not disappoint. I would hire her again in a second, and as I’m a veterinarian, I’m very picky with my family’s animals and know what great care looks like. Thank you so much, Megan!!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Oakdale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of September 2026, there are 533 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Oakdale. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Oakdale 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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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.

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

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.

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.
