âEmalia was so communicative the whole time. She consistently checked in and sent photos so I was never worried about him. She seems to care so much and Iâm so grateful she was able to take such great care of my pup!â

âCassie was an AMAZING house sitter for our recent trip! She went above and beyond caring for all of our dogs and home. She was able to manage medication, feeding and potty schedules for them all. She cared for our dogs and home as if they were her own. Our dogs loved having her with them at the house. She made them feel at ease with their peeps away. I am so happy that we found such an amazing and trustworthy person to care for our 4 legged girls while we are gone!! 5 stars PLUSâ

âElizabeth is amazing! This was our first time using Rover and we could not have had a better experience. Responds quickly, very understanding, and knowledgeable with puppies! My pups will miss her, excited to see Elizabeth again!â

About: I have had our dog Bosco for four years and he is the best boy ever. I have also watched foster dogs for my friend who manages a shelter in neenah and I have watched other friends dogs in the past. I get done in the afternoon so I can walk dogs in the afternoon and check on cats in the afternoon. Iâm also free on weekends and I have off every government holiday. Unfortunately taking pets into my apartment is not ideal for our household, with that being said, I have absolutely no issues going to your home either to let the dogs out for play time and walks or even over night. Same with cats, going to your home is better suited for me!
âSarah is the exact person you are looking for to care for your pet while youâre away. They are enthusiastic and ask important questions. They also send updates and photos while youâre away. We will use Sarah to watch our dog whenever we are away and they have availability.â

âElla was amazing watching our kitties while we were gone! She had great communication and sent us multiple pictures everyday to check in! She is very kind and even got our very shy kitty to open up to her! We will absolutely book with her again and I will recommend her to anyone that needs a sitter!â

About: I have over 15 years of pet sitting experience with a variety of animals such as dogs, cats, birds, turtles, lizards, fish, rabbits, chickens and ducks. I have experience with temperamental or reactive animals as well. Animals are my passion and both friends and family know they can rely on me to provide exceptional care, love and respect to their fur babies while they are away. No animal is too big or too small! I am currently unemployed and in the job searching process so I have a very open and flexible schedule. Whether you need dog walking services or in-home care I can more than likely make it work for your needs! I have a beagle/boxer mix who gets daily walks and has a big fenced in yard to enjoy at our home. I also have two cats, a classic brown tabby and a petite tuxedo girly. We are unique as we bring all of our animals camping so they get to experience the outdoors with us! My animals are treated like my children and part of the family which is exactly how I would treat yours. I honestly prefer animals over humans.
âOlivia is experienced, kind, and quick to absorb a lot of information (and responsibilities). She helped us out last minute with our hospice elderly dog when we exhausted and needed a break.â
âRowan stayed with our blue heeler in our home for 6 days and was great with her. He was very patient and tolerant of her quirky habits. He took her for walks, car rides, played with her a lot and sent me many pictures. Rowan is very dependable and responds quickly to texts and asks questions if necessary. Thanks Rowan! Loved that you gave Terra your full attention while you were here.â

âAbigail did a great job, took great care of our 2 mini dachshunds and cat while we were on a 4 day trip. Very relieving to here from her with photos that everything was going well. We came home to 2 happy pups! We will definitely use Abigail's services in the future.â

About: I have 4 years experience of working as a vet tech! Iâve also worked for a boarding kennel, a groomer, animal control and I also have some experience with training! Iâm currently working full time but Iâm available all day on Tuesdays for walks or drop-ins. And whenever for pet/house sitting. I would love to some day do week night pack walks with multiple dogs! You can trust that I will let you know of any issues with either your pet or your home. If Iâm concerned of any behavioral issues or health issues, even the smallest of things, I will let you know immediately. With my experience in veterinary medicine, I have good judgment of weather a health concern can wait until youâve returned home or if I need to take the pet to the vet immediately.

âEmily did a fantastic job of caring for all 3 of my animals, watering the indoor and outdoor plants as well as leaving my home just as clean as she found it. I will definitely use her again in the future!â

About: Hi Iâm Lauren! I am excited to help some families out and give them peace of mind with caring for their fur-babies!! I canât wait! I am currently working as a nanny! This would be great for me as my schedule gives me free time in the mornings and evenings! I have plenty of time to play, feed, and spend some time with your fur-babies!! I am able to care for your pets as needed! If thatâs walks, play time, or just a potty break during the day, Iâm your girl!
âRiley was amazing! I had her watch my dog, Bear, and stay in my home for 5 days. She was so calm and sweet during our meet and greet, so I felt super comfortable leaving her with Bear. Bear is not the easiest dog and was a little snappy during her visit, but she was relaxed and ended up calming me down saying they would get along great. She provided daily updates and always kept me in the loop while I was away. When I got back home, my house was super clean, and Bear was very happy! He clearly had a great visit with Riley as well. Could not recommend Riley enough!â


About: Iâve spent several years providing reliable, compassionate care for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a gentler touch, I tailor my approach to each animalâs unique needs. My experience includes daily walks, feeding routines, medication administration, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection to keep pets happy and relaxed while their families are away. I focus on creating a safe, calm environment so every pet feels comfortable, understood, and genuinely cared for. Pet care is a natural part of my weekly rhythm, especially since I work from home three days a week. On those WFH days, Iâm able to offer flexible, consistent attentionâperfect for pets who enjoy companionship, regular checkâins, or a steady routine. I build feeding times, walks or play sessions, potty breaks, and general wellness checks around my work blocks, making sure pets get the care and interaction they need throughout the day. On the days Iâm in the office, I plan visits intentionally to keep each petâs routine stable. Whether itâs morning care, midday enrichment, or evening checkâins, I make sure every pet gets predictable, comforting attention. Because Iâm used to balancing a hybrid schedule with pet responsibilities, Iâm very organized and reliable about maintaining consistent care all week long. When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping their routine, environment, and comfort exactly the way theyâre used to. I follow the ownerâs instructions closelyâfeeding schedules, walk times, play preferences, medication needs, and any household rulesâso pets feel secure and stressâfree. I take time to learn each petâs personality, whether they need extra play, quiet companionship, or a slow, gentle approach. I keep the home tidy and respectful, making sure food and water areas stay clean, litter boxes or potty routines are maintained, and any messes are handled right away. I also pay attention to small details like closing gates, locking doors, turning lights on or off as requested, and keeping the home feeling livedâin and safe. Throughout the stay, I send updates and photos so owners always know how their pets are doing.
âEmily did great with our two dogs, one who is very anxious and the other who is very high energy! She took them on walks and to the dog park, took lots of pictures, and we felt very at ease knowing she was taking care of them!â

âKristy was absolutely wonderful! From the moment I first contacted her, she was incredibly responsive and communicative. Before my trip, she came to my home to meet my dogs, and I immediately knew she was the perfect fit. My dogs are truly family to me, so finding someone I trust is extremely important. Throughout my time away, Kristy sent daily updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my fur babies were happy and well cared for. It was clear that she genuinely cared about them and treated them as if they were her own. When I returned home, my house was clean and my dogs were relaxed, happy, and obviously very well taken care of. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Kristy to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter! đžđâ

About: I have taken care of many of my friends pets since I was 12 which includes staying overnight at their homes when they are gone for weeks. I do long and short care sitting for pets. I love to spend time with pets and making sure they get the care they deserve. I am currently not working right now but will have a part time job soon. I will talk with the owners and work out a good schedule that will work best for all. Growing up we have used an invisible fence and radio collars to keep our dogs in our yard. We made sure to check in on them periodically while they were outside. While I'm taking care of my friends pets, I would play inside and outside with them, go on walks with them, and make sure they get the best care.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Oshkosh is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Oshkosh
Cassie was amazing with Dexter! She communicated very well and went above and beyond for Dexter! Tidied up the house and cleaned the yard of all poop, which was not needed but very much appreciated it! Made being away a little less stressful knowing Dexter was well taken care of! Highly recommend!

Carissa did an amazing job with our elderly Bulldog Louise. She requires meds twice a day and is mostly blind. Carissa was so reliable and patient with Louise. I felt perfectly comfortable leaving her in Carissaâs care. The house was just as we left perfectly cared for. We will be inviting Carissa back soon!

Rebecca was amazing and stepped in to help with my dogs on very short notice. She communicated with me the entire time and sent a lot of pictures. Rebecca even hand fed my dogs to make sure they felt comfortable and cared for. I will absolutely be using her again in the future!

Annalise did a great job taking care of our very spoiled kitty Arya! We were able to take a two week vacation and we were never worried about how things were going at home. Annalise is very caring and conscientious about her time with Arya. She will be my first choice in the future for a caregiver for Arya.
She did a great job taking care of my French Bulldog. The French Bulldog can be really hard to take care of but she was able to keep him on schedule. Was also alert about him not eating and we were always in contact. I had no worries while I was gone. Thank You!

FAQs for House Sitting - Oshkosh
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Oshkosh on Rover is $47.77 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 246 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Oshkosh. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitterâs 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 Oshkosh walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your homeâs security or appliances.
Itâs helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Oshkosh 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 theyâll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your petâs 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 Oshkosh 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 Oshkosh. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
