“Allie was a great house sitter for our two dogs, one of which is 13 and deaf. She was responsive and responsible. Her staying at our place where the dogs are most comfortable allowed us to enjoy our time away.”
“Anna was amazing!! Quick to respond, super flexible with scheduling, and was so great to my pug. Would recommend her as a house/pet sitter to anyone! Can’t wait to have her back! Thank you again Anna!”
“My senior dog took an immediate liking to Cole, always a good sign, and Cole was adept at administering to his particular needs, including giving medication and nudging him outside when he was reluctant to move. I've already requested that Cole come again!”
“They are both amazing! We are moving too and I told them they really don’t have to stay at the house since it was chaotic with boxes and such, but they insisted to stay with my babies. My pups were obsessed 🤍🐾”
“Thanks to Greg we were finally able to go away without our needy pets. We were able to relax because Greg did a great job of connecting with our pets and communicating with us. He followed all of our detailed instructions and cleaned up like he was never here. We hope to hire Greg again for more housesitting. His care is much appreciated.”
“Did an amazing job with my dog and cat during the 2-week long overnight stay at my place. They gave lots of updates and photos which helped me feel more at ease leaving my pets. They also cleaned up after themselves when they were done, which was really appreciated after getting back from a long trip! Absolutely would recommend them!”
About: I’ve had a love for dogs since I was little, one of my first books that I read as a child was about dogs, and have cared for 4 dogs in the last 11 years. I had a Jack Russell terrier, Yorkshire terrier & toy poodle, who have passed in their old age. I currently have an Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix who is 2. My dogs, as well as other dogs, are well behaved around me and love being in my presence. I am available any day of the week, so availability is never an issue. I love caring for dogs & playing with dogs as it brings me and the dogs happiness. You will love that I care for the dogs’ health, safety, and happiness.
About: Hello furry parents! My name is Lily and I’m excited to support you and your family. I have worked with all dog breeds and all ages through fostering. I am currently in my training certification program to provide proper education to you and your puppers. I am an online student looking to spend my free time with amazing pets. My top priority is to give all animals time and love. Whether it’s giving a long walk, using my dog park at my complex or administering medication, I’m your girl! When I would care for your pets, it’s all about the greeting. I would love to make sure your pets are as comfortable with you as for me! If you’d love me to help them learn tricks, feel free to request!
“I would highly recommend Rhonda! She was incredible with our boys. Very attentive and caring. I also love the communication. She is absolutely wonderful!”
“Zahira was a great dog and housesitter! She was punctual, very communicative and sent plenty of photos and videos of our dog each day. Our pup was happy and healthy when we got home. We’ve already booked her to watch our dog again! Highly recommend, thanks so much!!”
“James was fantastic with Louie! He was great about staying in touch, sending photos, and taking care of Louie and amaking him feel well cared for. I would definitely have him again anytime!”
“June took care of our two dogs for several days and was absolutely wonderful. She was clear and responsive in her communications before and during her stay. During the stay, it seems our dogs loved her and look to have had a great time while we were gone. We highly recommend June — and we look forward to working with her again!”
About: I have had three dogs for the past 6 years and I have lots of experience taking care of other people’s dogs. I have most experience with small and medium size dogs but I am more than willing to take care and hang out with any animal of any size! I have extremely flexible hours, and I’m willing to take care of your animal any day of the week and am willing to come anywhere from early mornings to late nights! I have three pets of my own and understand the time and care that needs to go into pet sitting. I will care for your pets in your home exactly how you would like me to care for them per your instructions and expectations! :)
“Cienna is a wonderful sitter. She is clear and prompt with communication, kind and trustworthy. She took amazing care of our pups and also our house. She reached out when she had a question or needed clarification on something, which I appreciate so much. I have no doubt our dogs were well loved while we were away. I would not hesitate to have Cienna back to watch our dogs again!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Oldmans
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 4,924 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Oldmans. 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 Oldmans 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 Oldmans 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 Oldmans 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.

- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% 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.
