“Ms Brenda is an amazing animal caretaker. She is always on time and checks in during every visit. She treats my furbaby like one of her own. You can tell she genuinely loves animals and helping care for them. I am so happy I found her to help with my Luna :)”
“Tidarat is a highly motivated pet care worker—I cannot recommend her enough! I needed drop in visits for a couple of days and she help with my 3 cats, and also my cockatiel bird, Tidarat checked in on time of the appointment and maintained communication with me at all times trough the app. When she was done she provided me with a bunch of photos and a detailed message about the visit. I felt so good after she was done because I knew - and could see- that my furry kids were happy :) she is very detailed oriented, and I will for sure hire her again for future drop in visits.”

Kathryn clearly loves cats and went above and beyond to ensure my sweet, elderly cat was comfortable and well cared for. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Amber did an excellent job taking care of my dog and 2 cats. My dog is diabetic and requires insulin injections twice a day plus several other medications as well as a special diet. My two cats are finicky eaters and will only eat what they want. Amber handled the medications and special diets like a pro and kept me up to date in great detail while I was away. She took care of my babies like they were her own and that made me feel very stress-free being away from them. I would highly recommend Amber and will definitely use her in the future.”
“Amber is so awesome! I reached out to her on short notice and she sprung into action to help! She extremely thorough with my furry babies and did everything she could to make sure they were well taken care of and that I felt at ease! I will be requesting her for sure on my next trip out of town! I would give 20 stars if I could!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in college for some extra cash. Now I have 2 dogs of my own who are basically my children, so I’ve learned a lot along the way from experience and doing my own research. I can teach basic commands, basic obedience and potty training. What you can expect from me is to treat your dogs as I would my own with the same level of care and affection. I have two dogs myself. They are what got me into a routine. I have experience planning my days around potty breaks, enough outdoor time, play time, and feedings. I prefer we do some sort of walk through or schedule for the dogs because not everybody has the same routine so I don’t want to assume and carry on with what my routine would be and disrupt the dogs routine.
“Riley helped us with a short notice drop in 🥰 She is reliable, responsive, responsible, and very kind. We so appreciate her. Each time, we have come home to a very happy Miko. Highly recommend!!”
“Guadalupe is fantastic! Our very large pup loved her coming over and checking in on him while we're traveling. And our two very shy/skittish cats actually come out to say hello to her when she drops is. Highly recommend”
“Erica and her family are the absolute best ever!! Super kind and took amazing care of our home and our babies! She went above and beyond and is a genuine and amazing person. 10/10 recommend! Best experience ever”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Oakwood on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 2,635 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Oakwood. 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 Oakwood 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 Oakwood. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
