About: I’m a dependable animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes and temperaments. I’ve spent a lot of time around dogs, cats, and other small animals, and I’m comfortable handling feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and basic care routines. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to watch their pets because I treat every animal like my own—making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. My goal is always to provide a calm, reliable environment where pets get plenty of attention, activity, and love. I have plenty of time to care and love your dog. I treat every animal as if it was my own. My home is also spacious and I have a large fenced in back yard with a back porch. Your dog will get all the love and cuddles while you’re away and be in great hands! I also have two young children that will love and play with them as well! They will be able to hangout and sleep with me or on a dog bed! 😊 I cannot wait to meet and love on your animal! 🐕 🐈

About: I am privately insured through Pet Sitter’s Associates! I’ve been dog sitting for years, starting with family and friends through recommendations from my mom, who still refers me to anyone looking for a sitter. I volunteer with the Human Animal Supporter Coalition, helping families in underserved communities care for their pets. Through my high school’s veterinary science program, I gained hands-on experience bathing dogs, clipping nails, and handling walks. I’ve also volunteered at vet clinics and was involved in FFA for four years. I currently attend community college and next fall I plan on transferring into a vet tech program to further my career with animals. I’m a part-time college student, so my schedule is very flexible! I currently do online classes so I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening walks or drop-ins throughout the week. Just reach out, I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine! I treat every pet like they’re my own and every home with care and respect. I stick to your routine, whether that’s walks, feedings, meds, or cuddle time, and I always make sure your pet feels safe and happy in their space. I’ll keep things tidy, double check doors and gates, and send you plenty of updates (yes, that includes cute pics). My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet.

“Rebecca was an absolutely wonderful sitter for our pups! She was incredibly attentive, made sure all of their needs were met, and gave them so much love and care. Our dogs can be a bit high-energy and challenging at times, but she handled them with ease and confidence. From brushing them to bringing them toys and treats, Rebecca went above and beyond to make sure they felt happy, comfortable, and loved while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared for them and treated them like her own. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care!”

“Jaydin was absolutely amazing, and I truly cannot recommend her enough. From the very beginning, she was kind, friendly, and made us feel completely at ease. Most importantly, my dogs loved her, and that says a lot because they are not always the easiest with new people. She was incredibly attentive, kept me updated, and followed all of our instructions and house routines perfectly, which meant so much to me. Knowing my babies were comfortable, safe, and well cared for while I was away gave me real peace of mind. I would trust her again in a heartbeat to stay in my home and care for my dogs. There honestly aren’t enough words to express how grateful I am. Thank you for everything, Jaydin!”

Not only did he take excellent care of our dogs, but he watered our plants, gave the dogs their medications, scooped poop, and coordinated with our cleaner and lawn care team. We will definitely have Tali care for our dogs again. We highly recommend him! Thank you, Tali!”

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life and I love them endlessly. I would love the opportunity to shower your animals with the love and care they need while you are away. I work full time but I have a schedule abnormal to most. I have lots of free time during the day before 3 during most weekdays, and evenings on weekends. Message me if you see a time that is not available and we’ll see if we can work something out! :) I will give your animal lots of love and attention, and make sure that they are well taken care of when they are with me. I will treat them like my own pups.

About: Give your dog a vacation! :) Your dog won't have any lack of attention in a home of two dog-lovers and an adorable little mutt named Tiger! We both work from home so we’re able to give attention throughout the day. I've grown up with dogs my whole life, and being from the country, we'd usually have six or seven in our family at a time. Tiger loves all dogs, big or small - he's a real dog's dog. Whatever your dog's temperament may be - whether chilling on the couch, or going for a walk or run, we will be happy to accommodate. We only board small and medium sized dogs, up to 40 pounds. If your dog is larger, we are open to house sitting at your residence. Your dog will have lots of room to play and relax in our two bedroom, dog-proofed home. We are lucky to have a fenced in back yard and to live in such a walkable neighborhood (less than half a mile from town square). Since we work from home, I'm able to do multiple walks (or jogs, if you are so inclined) a day. I will also send you updates and photos so you can relax and rest assured that your canine friend is in good hands. Let me know if your dog prefers to be crated at night or sleep with us. We also have several plush dog beds throughout the house, but feel free to bring any bedding or toys that will remind them of home.

About: My genuine interest and love for my own babies coupled with their happy, carefree, and free-roam attitudes makes me a prime & the right candidate to be your pet's new friend. I have two furbabies that I absolutely love & adore. I understand the importance and severity of wanting them to go... unfortunately, they simply can't for whatever reason. So, you do the next best thing, you hire me. Give me the opportunity to extend my love, adoration and safe environment to your furbaby (canine or feline). If you hire me, worrying about your pet will be the least of your worries, as it should be. Help me to help you give your pet a vacation-like stay while you're away. You'll be glad you did. I'm retired so I'm home all day. I have lots of time to hang, lounge and play with your furbaby(ies) and I'll enjoy every minute In my home and client's home, the treatment is basically the same. Furbabies are given cuddles, hugs, and attention. They are fed, walked and allowed to run around and squabble in the back yard.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have cared for many of my own over the years. I understand pets are family, and I’m committed to giving them the love, attention, and comfort they deserve while you’re away. I treat every animal like my own and am always excited to meet new furry friends! I’m a college student with three online classes this fall, which gives me a flexible schedule. I’m able to plan my days around pet care and am available as early as needed. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles, I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine. I’ll always treat your pets like family—because that’s what they are. Whether in your home or mine, I create a safe, loving, and calm environment where they feel comfortable and cared for. My own pets mean the world to me, and I’ll give yours the same respect, attention, and affection.

FAQs for House Sitting - Oscar

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of September 2026, there are 393 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Oscar. 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 Oscar 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 Oscar 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 Oscar 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Oscar. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 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.
