“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kelsi and how grateful we are to have found someone we trust with our little Baby Kitty, Bee, who is truly our whole world. Leaving Bee is so hard for us so knowing she was with someone who generally care about her and wanted her to feel loved meant more than I can say. Kelsi sent us a ton of adorable pictures and videos, and wrote us updates every evening, which was incredibly reassuring and made us feel so much better about being away from our precious little girl. It was so obvious that Bee was happy, spoiled (in the best ways), and very loved while we were gone, which completely melts our heart. Kelsi even left us the cutest little drawing of Bee with her final note for us to have when we got back. It was such a sweet, thoughtful touch. We are beyond happy to have found someone we can trust with our sweet little Baby Bee and will 1000% be requesting her every single time we need to sit, and I 1000% recommend her to you!”
“Farnaz was awesome! She provided detailed updates and great pics of my kitty. She really went above and beyond to make sure he was taken care of. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for pet care!”
“My Louie can be a bit of a challenge… and Esther was great with him! She was patient while he warmed up to her, sending me photos and information along the way. He actually looked like he was smiling! I came home to a happy, healthy pup. Thank you, Esther! We can’t wait to use you again!”

“Janini took wonderful care of my cat while I was away. She was prompt and dependable for her visits, sent great pictures and followed the instructions for feeding Gus. I would definitely book with her again in the future.”
“We had a great experience with Marina! She is reliable, caring, and wonderful with our dog. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in good hands while we work such long hours. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!”
About: Hi! I'm Heather — a lifelong animal lover who has rarely spent a single day without a dog by my side. I've been caring for dogs my entire life and currently share my home with four dogs of my own — a 9lb Chihuahua, a 9lb Yorkie-Chi mix, a 50lb Lab mix, and a 75lb Red Retriever — plus a cat and some fish. Safe to say animals are my life! After losing a beloved dog who was poorly cared for at a kennel, I became passionate about providing the kind of attentive, loving care that every pet deserves. I know how much trust it takes to hand your fur baby to someone else — and I take that seriously. I'm available for drop in visits, dog walks, and house sitting. I'm comfortable with all sizes and breeds and happy to accommodate cats too. I'll always follow your specific instructions and send plenty of photos so you never have to wonder how your baby is doing. Your pet isn't just a booking to me — they're family. 💙 Pet care isn't something I fit into my routine — it IS my routine. I'm home all day with four dogs of my own, so visiting or caring for your pet fits naturally into my day. I'm available mornings, afternoons and evenings and can be flexible around your schedule. Your pet will never feel like an afterthought — they'll get my full attention during every visit. When I visit your home I treat it with the same respect and care I would want someone to show mine. I follow your instructions exactly — feeding schedules, medications, special routines, off-limit areas — nothing is too detailed. I grew up understanding that pets are family members, not just animals, and that the trust you place in someone entering your home is significant. I take that seriously every single time. You'll always receive photos and updates during every visit so you know your baby is happy and well cared for.
“Did an amazing job with our two trouble makers. They definitely loved Farrah so much. Felt so comfortable with how happy they were. Definitely going to be my sitter from now on.”
About: I have cared for dogs starting in middle school, for a variety of neighbors, friends, and family members. I really enjoy spending my time with dogs, whether that be walking, playing, or just relaxing together. I currently am participating in a program with America's Vet Dogs, where future service dogs are trained by inmates at local prisons, and individuals/families sign up to take 1 dog every weekend for a year, to provide the experiences out in the world that these pups need to become amazing service dogs! This is my second year my mother and I have been a part of this program, and I have learned so much about dog training that I never knew before! I feel confident that this experience with training and taking care of a dog that isn't mine has made me a qualified pet sitter. I am currently in grad school, so I have free time during the day to walk or drop in on pets! I can be quite flexible with my availability and schedule because of the nature of my grad program. In your home, I will ensure that your pet is safe and cared for always. Whatever your home situation, I can easily accommodate to your dogs and cats the best care, making sure that they feel loved and are having fun! I love to get outdoors, and can easily handle active dogs with lots of walks and playing!
About: Greetings!! My name is Julia, I'm 25 and recently moved to RVA! I have 5+ years of experience and have a cat of my own, named Ponyo! I adore all animals and would love to lend a helping hand! I currently work 8-5 during the day Monday-Friday, but I am more than happy to check on your fur babies and spend some time with them in the evening after work! If you need weekend help, just reach out! I go based on what the owner tells me the pet can and cannot do. I will always respect an owners wishes as well as a pets boundaries!
About: I have been around dogs my entire life. I grew up with a GSP, Weimaraner, St. Bernard, and a couple labs. I have been dog sitting/house sitting a GSP for the same family for 6 years. I have two GWPs and I am used to high energy breeds. I have a flexible schedule and am willing to help - just let me know your needs! I work full-time, but I do work from home some days. My schedule is flexible and I usually come home at lunch to let my own dog out when I have to go into the office. I am a dog lover and I let mine on my furniture to snuggle. I play with Stark outside often and really take him everywhere that I can. He goes with me to the farmers market, the coffee shop, and other places. When I have dog sat in the past, I’ve always taken the dog I’m watching along as well!
About: I offer personalized, one-on-one care tailored to your dog’s unique needs, personality, and routine. With a focus on reliability and attentiveness, I make your dog’s comfort and daily schedule a priority. I strive to be a calm, loving presence your dog can trust, helping them feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. As a full-time teacher, my weekdays follow a consistent and predictable schedule. I am available for afternoon visits after school, evening care, as well as overnight stays when needed. On weekends, holidays, and school breaks, I have more flexibility and can provide extended care, additional visits, or longer stays. This structure allows me to offer reliable, attentive pet care while maintaining clear communication and consistency for your pet. I care for pets with a focus on comfort, routine, and individual needs, whether in my home or in my client’s home. I follow each pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication, and I take time to learn their preferences and personality. In a client’s home, I respect their space while providing attentive, one-on-one care and keeping pets in a familiar environment. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and calm interactions, and I communicate regularly with updates so owners can feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for.
“Lauren was really great, especially given our cat is very skiddish/scared and runs under the sofa at the slightest noise. Thank you for being caring and compassionate. When we go out of town again, Lauren will definitely be our selection. We highly recommend her.”

I highly recommend Jenna! She came by for daily checkins with our cats for a week, and took great care of them! She went above and beyond with getting our cat to take his medicine when he was being picky about it. Jenna is very communicative and we came home to happy cats.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 394 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Oilville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Oilville. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 92% 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.
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.
