“Casey did a great job with our elderly cat, especially helping to work on her grooming issues. He also notified us of a power outage and offered to make an extra trip to check on our house. I highly recommend him!”
About: Hi! I'm Luna, a college student from Ithaca, NY. I started petsitting two years ago, in my hometown and the town I go to college in, but I am looking to offer my services in Los Angeles while I intern here for the summer! I have experience with reactive dogs- I've taken care of my rescue dog for four years now. He's a large reactive dog who needs a lot of special attention, especially when around people and on walks. Your pup will be in good hands! I'm interning at a production company two days a week, so unable to provide service on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, but very flexible every other day. I am happy to take your pup on walks around the neighborhood, parks, or local trails. I have experience taking my dog on walks from 45 minutes- 1 hour, but if your dog doesn't need that, I love taking a shorter route! I don't have a car, so sticking locally will work best for me. If you have a yard, I will happily play with your dog outside, and visit inside however necessary.
“So thankful to have Kaleigh take care of our pets. Such a relief to have some one so nice and trustworthy with them!! Excellent each time she comes!!! Thank you Kaleigh!!!”
“10 out of 10! I was out of state to visit family, and C.P. was so great about sending daily photos/ updates of when he was dropping by. Will definitely be booking him again!”
“Amazing. Called last minute and she was able to come out the same day within hours. Second time I have used her services. My animals now have a secret friend. Will use her again.”
“Julia was so awesome and flexible!! I had some concerns with booking a pet sitter at an apartment complex, but Julia made things go incredibly smooth! Will definitely be using her again.”
“Shadia is very attentive and highly communicative! I left home knowing my cats were in excellent hands! She sent daily photos and kept us updated. She’s punctual, reliable and also thinks about the little things I never thought to ask about. She made our short vacation stress free!”
About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs and cats for most of my life. My life has been enriched by caring for kittens, puppies, adults, and seniors. I’ve given pills and eye drops to both cats and dogs. I love playing with cats and dogs and seeing them happy! It would be an honor to care for your pet. I’m the owner/operator of a new pet transportation business and have taken care of puppies during 200+ mile trips. This includes giving them water and food, cleaning them and their crate up (if they got carsick ☹️), sitting with them on breaks while they roamed the back of my SUV, and snuggles. I am excited to take care of fur babies at your home or mine! I have two cats of my own, a calico (7 yrs old) and a Siamese mix (6 yrs old), and they are amazing! 😻 I have a fenced in backyard and swimming pool (which can also be fenced off if desired by pet parent). I can feed, water, do short walks, and give medicine or eye drops (to compliant pets). I have 2 cats and am happy to provide care to cat friendly dogs at my home or I can come to yours. I’m available M-F 8-4 and for overnight stays.
“I couldn’t recommend Hannah enough! This was our first time using Rover and we booked to have multiple daily check-in’s for our two cats. To start, Hannah was prompt to respond and easy to communicate with to set everything up for the booking and meeting. After meeting her in person, my husband and I both were instantly impressed - she is so friendly and we could tell that she was an animal lover with the way she interacted with the cats. When the check-ins began, Hannah updated us to say how every visit went and she even included multiple pictures. It was the best!!! The whole experience with Hannah was professional, I would ABSOLUTELY recommend her.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have always loved taking care of animals. I have experience with dog and cat sitting, as well as some experience with dog training. I currently have two Border Collies and a Border Collie/Australian Shepherd mix, so I’m very comfortable with high-energy dogs and keeping them active and entertained. I know every pet is different, and I’ll make sure your pet gets the same care, attention, and love I’d give my own. 🐾 I currently work part-time at a local restaurant, but my schedule is pretty flexible, so I can easily work around pet care. I’m also taking college classes online, which gives me the flexibility to be available wherever I am. This makes it easy for me to give your pet plenty of time and attention! I take the safety and well-being of my own pets very seriously, and I would give your pet that same level of care. I’ll make sure they are safe, comfortable, and properly cared for while they’re with me, treating them with the same responsibility and attention I would give my own pets.
About: I have had dogs in my house my whole life, and for the past few years, I have been dog-sitting for numerous families for long periods of time. I am equipped to walk, let out, feed, administer medications, play, and take care of any other needs your dog may have. I work as a caregiver on Saturdays and Sundays for 6 hours each day, but otherwise, I can spend the rest of my time with your pup. I make it a priority to get any instructions my clients may have regarding their pup and make sure to follow them. I also make sure that I am always in earshot when in the home with the dog so that if anything happens, I can quickly act.
“Brittany was great at communicating with me, especially because my cat is antisocial. I didn’t anticipate Brittany seeing her so she let me know that the food and water were being consumed and she was using the litter box. It made my travels much easier! I’d book with Brittany again.”
“Nevaeh was punctual and she took good care of our pets. The shy one actually went up to her for a sniff of her hand. She followed the daily routine and sent daily communications at visit times. I highly recommend her. Thank you Nevaeh.”
“Lindsey was great! She did a drop in visit with our 13 year old pup, Lily. Lily has separation anxiety, and in the past has been a flight risk. I felt like Lindsey listened to our concerns and was thoughful in her care for Lily. She sent updates and lots of photos. It was comforting to know Lily was in great hands. Thanks again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Oberlin on Rover is $17.76 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,464 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Oberlin. 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 Oberlin 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 Oberlin. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% 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.
