“Savannah was such an amazing fit for my dog! I felt confident in her abilities to give my dog the care and attention she needed. Savannah would check in multiple times a day with updates and pictures! She gave my dog lots of love and playtime. I will continue to invite her back in the future! She was kind, attentive and communicative.”

“We are so happy with the services Brandon provided while we were on vacation. We came home to very happy dogs and the house exactly how we left it. Brandon sent pictures, asked questions and made sure our animals were well loved while we were away. I couldn’t be more pleased and will definitely plan to use him for future trips. I highly recommend Brandon for house and dog sitting.”

About: I have extensive experience caring for pets of all ages, from training energetic puppies to providing attentive care for senior pets. I’m detail-oriented, patient, and skilled at adapting to each pet’s unique needs. I prioritize clear and consistent communication, providing regular updates with photos or notes so owners feel connected and reassured. Whether it’s administering medications, reinforcing positive behaviors, or offering companionship, I ensure pets feel loved and well cared for. As a college student with a flexible schedule, pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine. Between classes and assignments, I have plenty of free time during the day to dedicate to caring for pets. I use this time for activities like walking, feeding, playing, and ensuring pets feel comfortable and loved. My afternoons and evenings are especially open, allowing me to provide consistent care and accommodate the needs of different pets, whether it's maintaining a routine for a puppy or giving extra attention to senior pets. My schedule allows me to balance my responsibilities while prioritizing the well-being of the pets I care for. I live in a house with 4 other roomates who also love dogs but your furry friend could be overstimulated by the people going in and out so if this is the case I would message to me first.
“This was our first time using anyone but family to housesit and watch our dogs. We chose Jeff, and when our dogs met him they opened up to him right away. We have 2 dogs, 1 is a puppy who loves everyone and is still training. The other is 7 and terrified of everyone but she went to Jeff. It made going away a lot easier. Jeff was great, he was good with our dogs and the house was spotless when we returned.”

“Appreciated the pictures and the responsiveness to email. The only thing that keeps me from a 5 rating is that I was unable to actually meet Scott in person. Part of that may have been on me as the request was "last minute." Maybe next time we can meet in person.”

“Julie did a great job caring for our dogs! She sent lots of picture updates and was a quick communicator. Julie was able to be at our home with the dogs the majority of each day to keep them company. She gave them new toys and spent a lot of time with them playing outside!”

“Sheila is an excellent pet sitter. We felt that our pups/kitty were safe and well taken care of while we made a last minute overnight trip. They are a handful / Sheila handled them beautifully!”
“We had Mana house sit for us and watch our 2 dogs! First time we’ve used Rover for house sitting, so we were a little nervous, but Mana did a fantastic job! She took care of our dogs and watched over our house. We highly recommend Mana and will definitely hire her again next time we leave town!! Our dogs were well taken care of!”

“Grace is always amazing. She is my go to for my girls every time. My house is always cleaner when I come back than when I left it and my pups are always very well taken care of. You can tell they are spoiled when I’m gone. Shes the best and the only one I’d trust to stay at my house for over a week.”

About: I have had dogs my entire life and for years have been dog sitting for friends and family. I do have one small dog in my home who is friendly with other dogs and would enjoy the company of your pup! I work a full time teaching job Monday- Friday but will be home all evening and weekends with your pup! I usually walk my dogs in the morning before work and then again in the evening if weather permits. My dogs have been my children and they are allowed on all furniture and beds. They have a chill place to relax in my home as well as a large backyard! I live right next to a park so they get a regular walk each day. I do not have a fenced in back yard so your dog must be comfortable going out to potty on a leash :)

About: 11 years of family-trusted care meets a lifetime of dog devotion. Having grown up surrounded by pups, I truly speak the language. I’m currently a proud "Big Dog" parent to a 5 and 2-year-old, so I’m never intimidated by size or energy. From heavy-duty playtime to long neighborhood treks, I have the experience and the energy to keep your pups happy and tired. Because I work from home two days a week, your dog will have constant companionship and frequent potty breaks. On my office days, I’m lucky enough to have flexibility to stop by during my lunch hour for check-ins and mid-day stretches. I’m home by 4:00 PM every day—which means afternoons are dedicated to long walks and heavy-duty playtime. Since my weekends are currently wide open, I’m available for full-day adventures or extra snuggles, ensuring your pup never feels lonely while you’re away. I specialize in bringing the 'staycation' to your dog’s natural environment. Having raised two large dogs of my own, I am fully comfortable managing a household with big personalities and high energy. I respect your home and follow your rules to the letter—whether that’s strict feeding times, specific 'off-limits' furniture, or leash-training routines. My schedule allows for a seamless transition: I provide mid-day check-ins on office days and full-time companionship when working from home. Because I’m through with work by 4:00 PM and have wide-open weekends, your pup will never be left waiting for their next adventure. My goal is to keep your dog’s routine identical to when you’re home, ensuring they stay tired, happy, and stress-free.

About: Hi! I’m an experienced and reliable pet sitter with over 20 years of hands-on experience as a dog owner. I’ve cared for dogs in every stage of life—from young puppies to senior dogs, as well as dogs with special needs, anxiety, and medical conditions. I’m comfortable with small and large breeds and pets with all kinds of personalities, whether they’re energetic and playful or calm and cuddly. In addition to my own pets, I regularly provide dog and cat care for friends and family, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust when you’re away. I also have experience with puppy training basics, including reinforcing routines and good behaviors. I’m comfortable with administering medications, including pills and other treatments, and maintaining consistent routines for pets who need extra care. One of my rescue dogs struggled with anxiety, so I’m very familiar with supporting anxious pets and creating a calm, reassuring environment. Something that also sets me apart is that my sister is a former veterinary technician, so I have a knowledgeable contact I can reach out to if any questions arise while caring for your pet. Most importantly, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I tailor my care to your pet’s specific needs, routine, and personality to help them feel comfortable and happy while you’re away. I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet, so I always send frequent updates, photos, and videos so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for. I’d love to meet you and your pet—feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a meet-and-greet! ❤️ work remotely from home Monday–Friday from 8 AM to 4 PM, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. Because I work from home, I’m able to take breaks during the day for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins to make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need. If I have a particularly busy work week, I will update my Rover calendar and turn off my availability in advance to ensure that any pets I accept receive my full attention and care. I know how important your pet’s safety and happiness are, and I treat every animal in my care like they’re my own. I maintain a calm, clean, and secure environment while following your pet’s routine and any special instructions you provide. I’m experienced with administering medications, monitoring health, and handling behavioral or medical needs, so you can feel confident your pet is in capable hands. I also send frequent updates, photos, and videos to keep you connected and worry-free. Every pet gets personalized attention, love, and care, so they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away.

About: Ive been around pets my entire life and have years of hands on experience caring for both cats and dogs. I'm comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, basic grooming, litter box care, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, so I always follow the owners instructions closely and make sure pets feel safe abs comfortable while they're in my care I currently work part-time on Mondays, Tuesdays Thursdays, and Saturdays, ( sometimes they don’t schedule me all days) and I attend college during the week. My school schedule is fairly flexible with no more than two classes per day, usually lasting around 2 hours each. This gives me plenty of time between classes and work to care for pets, provide walks, drop in visits, and spend time with pets staying with me. I'm also available for boarding and overnight care. On weekdays, drop-off and pickup times may need to be arranged around my class schedule, but I'm happy to work with owners to find a time that works for both of us. My days off from work are Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday, so I have even more flexibility on those days. In my home, I make sure pets have a safe, comfortable space with plenty of attention, playtime, fresh water, meals, and bathroom breaks based on their normal routine. I keep a close eye on them and make sure they feel relaxed and cared for while there away from home. In a clients home, I follow the owners instructions closely and try to keep the pets routine as normal as possible. I'm respectful of the home, keep things clean, and make sure the pet gets the care, attention, walks, feeding, and companionship they need. I'm also happy to send updates and photos do owners know how their pet is doing.
“Grace house sat my two pups while I attended a concert in the cities. Both dogs pottied before she left. I returned about 1 am and the pups were sleeping until I got in the house. All went very well.”
About: As a dog owner myself, I truly understand how much your pup means to you, they’re family, not just a pet. I currently have an 8-month-old Golden Retriever puppy (Moomin) of my own, so I know firsthand the energy, playfulness, and training that goes into raising a happy, well-adjusted dog. Over the past year, I’ve handled daily walks, feeding, playtime, and all the little routines that keep a dog happy and healthy. I love taking dogs to the park for fresh air, playtime, and socializing with other pups, but I’m just as happy keeping them calm company at home if that’s what they prefer, I adapt to each dog’s personality and energy level. I’m attentive to every little cue, whether it’s excitement, anxiety, or just wanting a belly rub, and I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable the whole time. I also like to keep you updated with quick messages and photos throughout our time together, so you always know your pup is happy, safe, and having a great time. Pet care fits really well into my routine. I’m a full-time software engineer working a hybrid schedule with flexible hours (10 AM–3 PM). I’m typically out of the house on Mondays and Tuesdays, work from home the rest of the weekdays, and I’m completely off on weekends. My schedule is also flexible enough that I can adjust days if needed to match your pup’s needs. On the days I’m home, I have plenty of time for walks, play, and feeding, and I’m usually happy to have a dog keep me company while I work. I regularly cuddle and work alongside my own Golden Retriever puppy, so I’m used to balancing focused work with giving a dog attention, short breaks, and check-ins throughout the day. It means your pup won’t just be looked after, they’ll genuinely have company and companionship all day long. In my own home, I make sure dogs feel comfortable and settled right away, giving them a calm space to relax along with plenty of playtime and cuddles. Since I have my own Golden Retriever puppy, my home is already dog-friendly and set up for a happy, active pet. I take dogs for regular walks and trips to the park, letting them socialize with other dogs when they enjoy it, or keeping things calmer and quieter if that suits them better. I always adapt to each dog’s personality and energy level rather than sticking to one routine for every pet. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their normal routine, feeding schedule, and any specific instructions the owner gives me, so the dog feels as little disruption as possible. I’m attentive to their comfort and cues throughout, and I send regular updates with messages and photos so owners always know how their pup is doing.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Oneida 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 Oneida 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 Oneida 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
