“Margaret was exceptional! She took care of my 4 fur babies, sent pictures & updates daily, and left my home in great condition. I would definitely recommend her pet sitting services and would book her again.”
“Montana was great! On time and stayed in contact the entire time we were gone. She sent updates and pictures putting our minds at ease. Lucy seemed to take to her right away which spoke volumes. Will definitely use her again and again.”
“Richard cared for our 16 year old cat that has chronic health issues. Our cat takes several medications twice a day and eats a prescription diet. He did a great job, was very responsive, responsible and would contact me if he had a question. We felt like we left our cat and home in good hands. I will hire Richard again in the future when we need someone to look after our cat.”
“Jasmine was a fantastic dog sitter! She took care of our 10 month old shepherd-mix puppy, Nova, while we were away for the weekend. She stayed at our apartment for 3 nights to keep our anxious puppy company and make sure she had food, water, walks, and love while we were gone! Jasmine handled our anxious and reactive puppy like a champ and showed extreme patience until Nova warmed up to her over time. Jasmine also left our apartment exactly as we left it and even cleaned up the room she stayed in. She was wonderful and we would highly recommend her to others.”
About: I’ve had a medium sized dog of my own for the past six years. I also have been asked by numerous friends and family members if I could watch their dogs for a few days to weeks at a time. I am currently working part time where I only work Tuesday, Fridays, and one Saturday in a month. I have a significant amount of time left to dedicate to taking care of your animals! I have a large yard with a crick running along the edge of it. I also have a fluffy 5 year old dog to keep your dog company
“Tammy is absolutely amazing. !!! If I could give more stars I would. My mother just recently passed away and Rocco has always had someone with him 24/7 I was nervous to leave him , but she was beyond exceptional in every way ! I received pics, of him happy and lounging , walking. Whenever I messaged prompt response. I felt very at ease !! I highly recommend and appreciate her attention to detail with my little guy. Thank you so much Tammy ! I will book many times in the future”
“Elizabeth was absolutely wonderful with our Gabby! She was so patient and understanding with Gabby’s anxiety, which gave us so much peace of mind. It’s clear she truly cares about the dogs she looks after and goes the extra mile to make them feel safe and comfortable. Gabby was very well taken care of, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We would definitely use Elizabeth again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate dog sitter!”
“Heather was wonderful with our senior dog, Pippin. Though he doesn't have a complex routine to follow, he's a quirky guy that likes to be VERY close to his person, is forgetful, and sometimes barky due to his age. Heather "got" Pippin right away. We felt she genuinely understood his habits and his singular approach to life. Heather sent just the right amount of updates and photos. Pippin was in good hands with Heather. We are very grateful to her and highly recommend her!”
“We had a great experience with Hailly as our pet sitter! It was our first time leaving our dog alone since we relocated to the area so we were nervous about leaving her in a new home with a new sitter. Hailly kept us updated and sent lots of pics and Zsa Zsa did great. We would definitely hire Hailly again.”
About: I have taken care of all kinds of dogs, including very large ones for over five years. I have also taken care of a variety of other animals like goats, chickens, and cats. I am currently a college student, so I only have classes and soccer practice in the afternoons, but after that I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I live on campus, so I would be unable to bring your pets into my home, but I would be able to spend plenty of time at your house with your pet or take them on walks.
About: We have two very high energy German Shorthair Pointers so I have lots of experience and good energy to bring for high energy dogs or cats! I do work from home full time, I love to get out of the house and do as much as possible with my free time! My dogs and I really enjoy running outside and chasing a tennis ball or finding a good stick to chew on! I look forward to my cats that like to wait in bed for me to play string with them at night!
“Absolutely the best caretaker ever!!!! Joey was amazing with our dogs, easy to communicate with, and left our house cleaner than it was before he got there! We highly recommend Joey!!!!”
“Ray did an amazing job with our two very quirky furry family members. She put both of them at ease, and they weren’t at all stressed when we got home. In fact, they miss her now that we’re back!”
“Kylie came to our house to stay with Walter for a couple of days while we went out of town. She kept us up to date with texts and pictures, and the house was clean and tidy when we got home! I highly recommend using Kylie ☺️”
About: Hello! My name is Jahlea and I have always had animals in my house, those with and without fur, including fish, axolotls, hamsters, guinea pigs, a medium-sized terrier mix rescue dog and 2 large labradors. I have cared for and have loved my pets with all of my heart and I plan to do the same for your big and little ones as well. I have over 12 years of experience caring for various animals including bunnies, bearded dragons, dogs, cats, and fish. My specialty is caring for dogs and cats including those that are needing medicine (by injection or pill), are seniors, or have special needs. I am also a frequent petsitter for foster dogs so I have lots of experience with dogs that have emotional and behavioral issues and the patience and care it takes while they learn what it means to be loved again. I look forward to setting up a meet and greet with you and your furry friends! I will make sure that your pets feel comfortable and safe just as you would and I cant wait to give them lots of love!

FAQs for House Sitting - Oaks Corners
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 238 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Oaks Corners. 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 Oaks Corners 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 Oaks Corners 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 Oaks Corners 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.
