“Bailey did an outstanding job and was very professional over the past couple of weeks taking care of my cat! Anytime there was an issue or she had questions, she was communicative and reliable, so I never had to worry while I was gone. Your fur baby is definitely in safe hands with Bailey!”

About: I didn’t grow up with pets so when I became a pet parent 10 years ago, I had to learn from square one what it takes to care for an animal. My animals are special and have some special needs so I’ve gained many skills over the years such potty training, basic dog training, and medication administration for both dogs and cats. I’ve used Rover myself in the past so I understand how important building trust is when having someone new take care of your pets. I’m looking forward to the opportunity to get to know your pet(s)! I have my own cat and dog who have fairly flexible schedules so I can prioritize your pet care needs. For my own pets, I do potty and breakfast in the morning, an afternoon potty break, an evening walk followed by dinner, and one final potty break before bed. I can fit your preferred schedule around my pet’s schedule. Each animal has their own unique needs and I’m happy to cater to what works best for you. For example, does your animal need me to sing them a special song before dinner? Does your animal need space from other animals? Is your animal mischievous and needs to be watched at all times? I’m looking forward to accommodating your needs.
“We are so grateful for the care and attention you show our girls. It’s a huge relief to know they are in such good hands when we travel. Thank you so much!!!”


“I was really pleased with Jenna. I could tell my bunny got really comfortable especially in the last pic she sent me when Pepper was asking her for treats! She followed all of my instructions to a T. She arrived for her visits promptly and sent me a Rover card with pics every time which I appreciated. When I came home Pepper was doing great. Thanks Jenna!”

“Bridgett took really good care of my doggy baby Maxx she was very consistent and updated me every visit with pictures and notes of the day her and my dog had which he seemed to be sooo happy and content!! I hope to use her again in the near future🌟”

About: I’ve cared for animals since I was a small child, with neighbors and family trusting me to look after pets of all shapes and sizes — from dogs and cats to amphibians and farm animals. I pride myself on being judgment-free and flexible. No matter what your home looks like, how many pets you have, or where you’re located, your animals will be treated with kindness and respect. I’m experienced with everything from well-loved family pets to special cases and I’m always here to help. I am a college student pursuing a degree at the university of Memphis. In my spare time, I try to fill it with practical hands on animal experience that will further my career. I treat every animal under my care as if they were mine. When I petsit animals, I establish a schedule to make sure all needs are being met, this includes attention of course! I love taking the animals I petsit on field trips, such as the dog park, Hollywood feed or car rides. Any animal under my care is always cheerful with a day jam packed full of fun.
About: I have worked with / owned & loved horses, cats & dogs since I was a young child. I love animals and will take great care of your baby while you are away ! I am flexible in my schedule right now as I'm working on selling my home / moving cities so I am in between jobs. I would love to spend my spare time with animals right now ! I can do play dates in your yard if you have a fenced in yard. We can throw the ball or go on a walk or to the park. Whatever your pup likes best. I can fill water & food bowls and dispense medication as long as the instructions and pill pockets are left out.

About: I am a lifelong pet lover, caring since childhood, college pet sitter, now proud parent to three rescue dogs and two cats with special-needs experience. I work part-time and I am available for daytime and weekend visits. I can drop in to feed, walk, and check on pets with updates. I’ll follow your routine exactly. Meals, walks, meds, and cuddles. In my home or yours, I keep it calm, clean, and safe with photo updates.
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since i was a kid. At about 10 years old and I knew I wanted to do that for a living. I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for and play with your pups or kitty’s. I have an open and flexible schedule. I only care for pets by what's best for the animal in any home. Pets in my home or my clients shall be taking care of with love and respect as if they were my own.
“More progress on being less reactive to people coming inside the house. More Consistent with air command and progress on place And stay. Another fruitful session”


About: I have years of experience with dogs of many breeds. I can care for your dogs safely at your home. Feel secure when you travel. I'm new to the Memphis area and looking to meet nice families who need help with their dogs. I can walk or play with them as well as sit when you're away. I can stay at your home or travel back and forth daily whichever you prefer. I have a flexible schedule and prefer medium and large dogs.
About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! Growing up, I was always surrounded by pets, and I've spent years helping friends, family, and neighbors care for their furry family members. Whether it's going on walks, playing outside, feeding, or just keeping your pet company, I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I understand that pets aren't just animals - they're part of the family! I take that responsibility seriously and always do my best to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I'm dependable, patient, and happy to follow your pet's normal routine so they feel right at home. I'll also make sure to keep you updated with pictures and messages so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in good hands! I own my own business and work from home, which allows me to have a very flexible schedule. I can easily make time throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention. Since I set my own hours, I'm able to work around your pet's routine rather than the other way around. Whether you need someone for a quick visit, regular walks, or extended care, I'm happy to accommodate your schedule! I understand how important it is to know your pets are in good hands while you're away. I have a dog of my own who relies on life-saving medication for epilepsy, so I know firsthand how important it is to stay on top of medications, schedules, and special care instructions. That experience has taught me to be especially attentive, patient, and responsible when caring for animals. I take the time to learn each pet's personality and routine, and I always treat your home with respect. I'm also happy to send regular photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and getting the attention they deserve!
About: I’ve had dogs and cats for most of my life—cats were actually my first love, and I’m still a total sucker for them! While I don’t currently have a cat of my own, I’m very happy to provide drop-in care for your feline family members. At home, I have two friendly Golden Retrievers, Aspen and Indy, who enjoy having canine companions around. I work from home, so dogs staying with me get plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime and companionship throughout the day. We also have a large fenced yard where they have plenty of room to safely get outside and play. I know every pet has their own personality and routine—from the social butterfly who wants constant attention to the shy one who needs time and patience to feel comfortable. I’ll follow your pet’s routine and care for them like I would want someone to care for mine. And because I know how hard it can be to leave them, I’m happy to send plenty of photos and updates while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work from home, so I’m home throughout the day with my own two dogs, Aspen and Indy. This gives me plenty of flexibility for meals, potty breaks, playtime, walks, cuddles and lots of companionship. Pets staying with me won’t routinely be left alone for long stretches, and we also have a large fenced yard for plenty of outdoor time. I’m also available for drop-in visits depending on the location and requested time. I finish my workday in the early afternoon, so my afternoons and evenings are generally very flexible for drop-ins. Morning or daytime visits may also be possible depending on timing and distance—just send me a request and we can see if it works! In my home, I try to keep your pet’s routine as close to what they’re used to as possible. I work from home, so I’m available throughout the day for potty breaks, meals, playtime, attention and plenty of cuddles. We have a large fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, and my two Golden Retrievers, Aspen and Indy, are friendly and enjoy having canine companions. I can accommodate different comfort levels and personalities. If your dog enjoys being social, they can join Aspen and Indy for playtime and relaxation. If your pet is more comfortable having their own space or needs to be kept separate from other animals, I can accommodate that as well. My goal is for each pet to feel safe and comfortable rather than expecting every animal to interact. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, medications, sleeping arrangements and any special routines or needs. I know being away from home can be stressful, so I want your pet to feel safe, comfortable and treated like part of the family while they’re here. For drop-in visits, I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine in their own home, including feeding and fresh water, potty breaks or litter box care, medications if needed, playtime and plenty of attention and affection. I’m also happy to simply provide companionship for pets who are shy or prefer interaction on their own terms. I’ll provide photos and updates during stays or visits so you can relax knowing how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“Andrea did a great job taking care of my three cats! I have two that need medication and she was able to take care of them. I appreciated lots of pictures and videos of them while we were gone!”

About: Back in 2014, I attended Tennessee College of Applied Technology, graduated early with my diploma in Assistance Animal Laboratory Technicians, also with a certification in Purina Mills Animal Care Course. I have done an internship with North Shelby Animal Shelter as well as Bartlett Animal Shelte, where I took stray dogs/ abandoned out for walks and to play. Most of the dogs I encountered with at the shelter were sweet and loving dogs that just need a friend and time to spend with a person. I treated those dogs as my own. I have also intern at University of Tennessee Health and Science Center taking care of rodents, pigs, and other animals. I am someone who is mature, candid and who has integrity. Everyday I work to improve myself and my skills which is part of maturing and becoming better at what I do, this is why I want clients to choose me. I will treat your pets as my own pets. I will love and care for them, as if they where my own.
About: I have been pet/house sitting for family and friends for 5 years now. I have worked in childcare(babysitting nannying, etc) for even longer so I consider the transition to be beneficial and seamless. I am a full time student and have a part time afternoon job. This gives me a lot of flexibility to take care of your pets needs throughout the day! I am dependable and will take care of the needs of your pet no matter how specific. I care about making your pet feel as in their normal routine as possible.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Oakville
Shanina took excellent care of my dog, Cherish. She was very attentive, kept me updated throughout the stay, and made sure all of Cherish’s needs were met. I really appreciated the communication and the level of care she provided, it gave me peace of mind while I was away. Cherish was comfortable and well taken care of, which means everything to me. I would absolutely book with Shanina again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Oakville is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $22 per visit. On Rover, 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 November 2026, there are 722 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Oakville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Oakville. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 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.
