“THANK YOU KAREN !!!!! Karen was AMAZING! She took the time to come meet my little guy before my trip and he took to her right away. She helped make me feel very comfortable leaving Titan in her care. She stayed at my place with him and I could tell he was well taken care of by the way he acted when I got home.

Was on-time ,did everything that was asked of her, Spent the day twice with us while we were on vacation and took great care of our 2 furbabies so we could venture out and did not have to worry about our 4 legged children while we were gone. Look forward to the next time! Thanks Tiff ,Paul, Ara, Ricky bobby!”

“Best dog sitter we’ve ever had! ❤️ I was worried leaving our dog who had been sick shortly before a trip, and Emily gave us incredibly thorough updates with lots of pictures, gave him all of his meds and let us know how he was feeling every day. It put us so at ease. Her communication and sweet demeanor were wonderful and also made our dogs feel at ease too. Our house was spotless when we got back and she took such great care of everything. Looking forward to having her back!”
“It would be difficult to leave a review that truly describes how wonderful Ashley is. This was the first time I left my pets with a sitter, I was sure I’d worry the whole time but Ashley was so patient and kind when she met them and kept us updated the whole time that I didn’t worry at all. She clearly loves animals and my home was immaculate when I returned. We needed a Vacation so badly and it never would have happened if Ashley wasn’t who she is. I honestly cannot say enough good about her as a a pet sitter and as a person. Your fur babies are in good hands with Ashley. Trust me on that. So is your home!”

About: I have had cats, reptiles, dogs and fish my entire life! I have had big dogs, small dogs, kittens and geriatric animals.

I was my neighborhoods pet sitter and have had experience with all animals! I have a cat that I care for everyday and I am very timely and consistent with care and feeding.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Oldham
Bethany was amazing! This was our first time trusting our pets, and our home, to a stranger. We decided that Bethany seemed like a good fit and decided to book with her. We met beforehand and even my picky Pomeranian went right to her to say hello. We just returned home today and everyone was happy and healthy, and our home was just how we left it! Bethany was polite and super responsive. We’ll definitely book with her again for our next trip. Thanks so much! 😊
Susan was excellent. She sat with my Henry and Otis and gave Otis a chance to settle with a new person. I would certainly use her again to let my pups out while on vacation. Her visit allowed us to enjoy Soaky Mountain and not worry about our pups not being able to go potty.

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 Oldham 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 Oldham 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 Oldham 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.
