“Sharon was wonderful with my fur babies, they fell in love with her from the get go, her calm spirit was a blessing to know my home and Dogs were in good hands.. will definitely book with Sharon in the future.. Thank you!!”


“Peyton was wonderful with Roland. I came home to a happy dog and a tidy home. Peyton exceeded my expectations. She kept me informed with texts and photos. Will certainly book again.”

“Whitney was absolutely wonderful with Bailey! ❤️🐾 She took great care of her and treated her like her own. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Bailey was happy, safe, and well cared for while we were away. Whitney was caring, dependable, and kept us updated, which we really appreciated. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter and would definitely recommend Whitney to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their fur baby! 🐶❤️”

“Second time booking Trina, and once again she was absolutely wonderful with my fur-babies! This time I also had a family member’s dog staying with me, and after giving Trina the profile and instructions, she handled the added responsibility flawlessly. The house was in perfect order when I returned, and all the pups were clearly happy and well cared for. One of my dogs had developed a tummy issue the week before my trip, which had me a bit anxious. I let Trina know the situation, and she had no problem adjusting her care as instructed by the vet. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she’d update me if anything changed. While I was away, I ended up having the opportunity to stay an extra night. Trina happened to be available and kindly accommodated the last-minute request. Trina is reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring. I’ll continue booking her any time I can—highly recommend!”

About: When it comes to dog care, I've got it covered! From energetic puppies to gentle senior dogs, I’ve spent years perfecting my pup-pleasing skills. I'm a pro at administering medication, keeping coats shiny with basic grooming, and ensuring tails are always wagging. My dedication to tailoring care to each dog’s unique needs is unmatched - no paw left behind! With me, your furry friend will receive the utmost love and care. As a dedicated pet sitter and full-time college student, I've crafted a paw-fect schedule to balance my studies with the needs of your furry friends. I'm always ready to give your pets the care and attention they deserve, offering early morning visits, evening visits, and overnight stays throughout the week. And when the weekend rolls around, my schedule is wide open for tail-ored care. No matter what your pet's routine looks like, I'm excited to work with you to create a purr-sonalized care plan that keeps those tails wagging and kitty purrs going! Ensuring the safety, trust, and comfort of both pets and pet owners is my top priority. Although I'm unable to welcome furry friends into my own home, I'm more than happy to visit your pets in the comfort of their familiar surroundings, where they feel most at ease. When caring for pets in your home, I pledge to maintain a clean and organized environment, keeping any designated areas tidy and secure. I respect your privacy and personal space, and I take my responsibility as a pet sitter seriously. You can trust that I will treat your home with the utmost care and attention. My goal is to create a safe, nurturing atmosphere where your pets can thrive, and I look forward to providing the best possible care for your beloved companions.
“Justine watched our pups for a week and they were obviously well-cared for and loved. I was relaxed the whole time away knowing that she had them in hand. We had a small hiccup with exactly which food to feed, but it was an easy fix and I look forward to having Justine back as often as she is available. She left the house just as she found it- possibly even better.”

“My dog is very nervous around new people, but CeCe was patient and let him come to her. She provided several updates and many photos during her stay at our house, which made us feel at ease. Our fur baby and house were well cared for, and I would not hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a new sitter.”

“Steve and Wanda have been “baby sitting” my animals for a few times now but never as long as this trip we took for more than 30 days. They were awesome and looked after our animals as their own and also lived in our home and looked after everything like we would do ourselves. My neighbours will miss them I think … lol! They are definitely part of our community and I will ask them to look after my animals over and over as long as they can. Thank you Steve and Wanda for the way you leave my home, it is a pleasure returning and everything and everyone is happy and just great. I can recommend Steve and Wanda if you would like peace of mind that your animals will be loved and looked after like yourself. I am so grateful to them, thank you!”

“Machalah has been a consistent overnight sitter for my pup for several months! He loves spending time with her and I love the peace of mind knowing he is well cared for. She is communicative, sends photos, and has been comfortable talking through his health needs - including giving medications! We look forward to continuing to have Machalah as a pet sitter!”
About: I have been dog sitting since my freshman year of high school to raise money for a school trip to Costa Rica that I attended in 2023. I am currently available anytime of the week. I am willing to stay overnight if needed. Or even stopping by to walk/let out the pets. I would rather not do it in my home just because I do not have a fenced in yard and I have three other dogs in my home.
“We (both humans and dogs) adore Billie. The pups got so much love that they barely noticed when we returned after a week 🤣. We got photo updates every day and lovely check-ins throughout our vacation. This was our first time booking with Billie and we will definitely use her again! So nice to trust that our fur babies are well taken care of while we're away.”


About: I love all animals! I have been pet-sitting since I was in elementary school. I currently have two tuxedo cats, one of which has to be given medicine twice a day, so I am comfortable with medication administration. I recently graduated from Physician Associate School and I am waiting for the credentialing process to be completed before starting my job! So i have plenty of time to take care of your animals! I care for every pet as if they were my own while also respecting each client’s home, routines, and instructions. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, receive any approved medications, get appropriate exercise and potty breaks, and have plenty of attention and companionship. I also keep their environment clean by tidying food areas, cleaning up accidents, and maintaining litter boxes or other pet spaces as needed.
“Erin did an excellent job of taking care of my dog and my house. She provided excellent communication before and during the stay. I returned to find a happy dog and my house was tidy as could be.”


“Kristi was an awesome sitter! She was attentive to our shy pup, and both of our dogs were left tired and content after a weekend with her. She spent a ton of time with them and clearly cares about the animals she works with. We definitely plan to book her again in the future!”

“Ashlyn came in so clutch helping me out last minute with taking care of my puppy, Stella. She communicated very well, was so positive even though i know my puppy is teething and kind of a pain! And she showed up and left when she said she would. Very much appreciate her consciousness and kindness when caring for my baby!! I would trust her in my home again anytime”

About: I’ve provided care for pets for quite a while, and I am looking forward to providing specific and detailed care based on owner preference to your beloved family member. I work part time currently and I’m very open to any pet care needs that my clients may have. I am looking forward to discussing this further with future clients. I have a yard at my home, I can create your dog or pet if needed, and am looking forward to finding out your specific pet care needs.
About: Hey there! My name's Graham and I couldn't be more excited for the opportunity to care for your pets! I've grown up with pets my whole life! From many dogs, a cat, a bird, to even a bearded dragon, I've loved helping my family care for our pets! Now, I'm ready to help you continue to take care of yours! I'm currently a Physician Assistant student here in Roanoke and pet sitting is the perfect way to spend some of my free time doing something I love while helping support myself through school! I'm open to any and all commissions and would love to hear from you! I'm currently a Physician Assistant student, so my class schedule varies throughout the week. Because of that, my availability is flexible depending on the day, and I'm happy to work with your schedule whenever possible.

I'd love to get to know you and come do a friendly pre-client visit to meet you and your pet and hear about clear instructions for their care! I’m open to helping in any way and can accommodate!
About: Reliable, Compassionate Care from Someone Who Truly Gets It As a pet parent myself, especially to a senior dog who needs a gentler pace and extra attention, I understand how important it is to have a sitter who treats your dog like family. That personal experience shapes the way I walk, support, and connect with every dog in my care. Puppy Training Support — I reinforce basic commands, leash manners, and positive behaviors to help young dogs build confidence. Senior Dog Expertise — Caring for my own senior dog has taught me how to adjust pacing, provide joint‑friendly routes, manage medications, and offer the calm reassurance older pups need. Behavior‑Sensitive Handling — I’m patient with shy, anxious, or reactive dogs and use gentle techniques to help them feel secure. Safety‑First Approach — Harness checks, safe routes, and attentive supervision are always part of my routine. Consistent Communication — You’ll receive updates, photos, and notes after every walk so you always know how your dog is doing. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I already structure my days around caring for my own senior dog. I’m used to planning walks, medication reminders, feeding times, and calm downtime, so integrating additional pet visits is a seamless part of my day. I offer flexible scheduling with dedicated blocks set aside for morning, midday, and early‑evening walks. This helps ensure your dog receives consistent attention without rushed visits or unpredictable timing. Because I maintain a steady routine at home, I’m able to provide: Reliable daily availability — Morning and midday walks are part of my everyday rhythm, making it easy to accommodate regular clients. Structured weekly planning — I map out my schedule in advance so each pet gets focused, unrushed care. Consistency for senior dogs — My experience caring for my own senior dog means I understand how important predictable routines are for older pups. Flexibility for busy owners — I can adjust visit times within reasonable windows to match your workday or travel plans. Dedicated attention — I never overbook; each walk or visit is scheduled with enough time to give your dog the calm, patient care they deserve. Routine consistency — I follow your feeding, walking, and medication schedule exactly as you outline it. Secure entry & exit — Doors, gates, and harnesses are double‑checked before every walk. Calm, respectful presence — I move slowly, speak gently, and let your dog approach at their comfort level. Clean, tidy care — Water bowls are refreshed, messes are cleaned promptly, and your home is left exactly as I found it. Photo updates — You’ll receive notes and pictures so you always know how your dog is doing.

Megan was wonderful! This was her first time staying at our home with our two high-energy little dogs for five nights. She communicated consistently, sent daily photo updates, and took great care of our pups so that we were able to truly relax while we were away. She also treated our home with the utmost respect. We came back to a clean, well-cared-for house, and she even picked the ripe blackberries from our bush and put them in the fridge so they wouldn't go bad. As an added surprise, she left us some housewarming gifts, which was incredibly kind and thoughtful. We would book her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and attentive pet sitter!

Gabrielle was absolutely fantastic as our dog sitter and house sitter for 4 nights. From the very beginning, she was incredibly easy to communicate with and responded instantly , which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She took wonderful care of our dog and our home, and it was clear that she genuinely cared and paid attention to every detail. We came home to a happy, well cared for pup, and everything in perfect shape. We are so thankful for Gabrielle’s help and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and caring sitter. We would absolutely book with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 442 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Oldfields. 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 Oldfields 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 Oldfields 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Oldfields 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Oldfields. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
