Elton had a fantastic time! 🖤 She kept me updated throughout the entire booking and sent pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear Elton was well cared for, comfortable, and getting lots of attention. I really appreciated her communication, kindness, and how attentive she was to his needs. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!

Monica stayed at our home with our fur babies (2 dogs and 3 cats) for a few days over the 4th of July this year and she was amazing. She send us lots of updates, photos and videos throughout her stay, and made sure we knew they were all doing well. We were so nervous about leaving our babies over the holiday with all the fireworks, but she handled their medication and let them snuggle with her and ensured they were safe. So grateful for her and will definitely use her again!

About: Being a pet owner my whole life has allowed me to understand dogs very well! I’ve dealt with bigger breeds like German Shepards and Pitt bulls, smaller breeds have always gotten along well with my demeanor. I have majority of the day to walk or take dogs to a park or allow them to explore the deserts. Let me know your dogs preference of activity. I stick to the rules, let me know what your dogs need or if they have anything that is specific for them that needs to get done!

About: My love for dogs started when I was just 6 years old when I got my first dog Katie, an Alaskan husky, and it has only grown stronger ever since. From a young age, family friends and neighbors trusted me to care for their beloved pets by walking, feeding, bathing, and giving each one the attention and affection they deserved. I have always treated every dog in my care as if they were my own, and that commitment hasn't changed. Today, I bring that same lifelong passion and hands on experience to every booking. Whether your pup needs a energetic walk, a calm overnight stay, or simply some extra love while you're away, you can count on me to provide attentive, reliable, and compassionate care. Your pet's comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priority. I am available for walks Monday through Saturday, with a preference for early morning appointments, though I am flexible to accommodate your schedule. I do not offer walking services on Sundays or major federal holidays. If you have any specific instructions, preferred routes, or behavioral notes about your dogs, I welcome that information to make every walk as smooth as possible. When caring for pets in my client's home, my priority is to keep their routine as normal and stress free as possible. I follow the owner's feeding schedule, walking times, and any specific instructions to ensure the pet experiences little to no disruption while they are away. I make sure fresh water is always available, the space is kept tidy, and that each pet receives plenty of attention, playtime, and affection throughout every visit. For dog walking, I take the time to understand each dog's behavior and energy level before heading out, walking up to two dogs at a time from the same litter to keep every outing safe and enjoyable. No matter the service, I treat every pet with the same patience and love I would give my own.

Lincoln had a great time with Alyssa who took excellent care of him and the house. She left the house spotless and it was such a treat to come home to a happy doggo and a clean home. Would love to have her back in the future.

We cannot recommend Shannon enough! From the moment we met, it was clear she was not only a true animal lover but also someone who takes her responsibility seriously. She stayed in our home while we were away and treated both our dogs and our space with the utmost care and respect. Our pups were clearly so well-loved and happy — we received regular updates and could see how comfortable and content they were. What truly sets Shannon apart is her kindness, attention to detail, and the genuine love she has for animals. She made our time away completely stress-free, and we came home to happy dogs and a spotless house. We trust her hands down, no questions asked, and will absolutely be reaching out for future trips. Thank you for everything!

We couldn’t be happier with the care our dog and cat received! From the start, Yeilin was reliable, communicative, professional, and clearly loves animals. Our dog was happy, well-exercised, and relaxed when we came home, and our cat, who can be quite difficult was calm and content. Yeilin provided great communication throughout the entire experience, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It’s such a relief knowing our pets were treated like family. We highly recommend Yeilin's services to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional pet sitter. Five stars all the way!

About: I've had dogs since I was 10 years old. I dog sit for my coworkers and family members. I have a certificate in veterinary assisting and I interned at a veterinary clinic for 2 months where I gained valuable experience with dogs and cats of all ages, I am cpr certified, I can give oral medication and injectable medications like insulin. I currently work at a middle school so I am unavailable Monday-Friday 730am-3pm however after June 4th I am available full time. Right now I can do drop in visits after 3pm on week days and any time on the weekends I rent a room in my friends house but I have a door to the backyard in my room so I have quick access to the yard for playtime or potty breaks. I have one senior dog who does not like to play with other dogs but will be respectful otherwise.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 15 years old. I have my own dog as well and am more than willing to work with all types of dogs. I work full time but I am looking to make some bonus money on the side for some cushion. I am available in the evenings and weekends I love taking dogs on walks long enough to make them happy and tire them out, I always make sure the dog has clean water and enough food, and play with them as much as I can.

About: Animals have always been a part of my life. I've had cats my whole life, including the 4 I own and I grew up with cats and dogs. I regularly take care of my friends and families' pets (including birds and other pets) when they are traveling and out of town, and I'm excited to make some new furry friends in the area. I run my own business from home, so my schedule is very flexible. This means I'm happy to work on your pet's schedule, or even be available as much as they need to hang out and have some company while you are away. I know how to administer medications to cats and dogs and understand senior/special needs pet care as well. I'm happy to send you updates and pictures/videos of your furbabies. I work from home and don't take calls regularly, which means I have flexibility and availability to take care of walks and other things throughout the day easily. Depending on the pet's needs, I work to be as attentive as possible; most people hire someone to be there for their pets because those pets need love and attention. I'm happy to provide that. I'm also happy to give your pet the space they need, given that I'm not you, and meet them where they are at, including them, as it makes the most sense based on temperament and need.

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Growing up around animals has taught me how important patience, consistency, and love are when caring for them. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, or just some extra attention while you're away, I'll treat them like they're part of my own family. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for, while giving you peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule and make time for walks, feeding, playtime, and giving pets the attention and care they deserve. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved is always a priority. Making sure they can’t get into anything harmful. I make sure they’re leashed every walk and that nothing harms the pet whatsoever. They’re in good hands.

FAQs for House Sitting - Oban

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Oban on Rover is $44.4 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 312 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Oban. 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 Oban 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 Oban 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 Oban 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.

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

  • 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 91% 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.
