About: i’ve taken care of all different types of animals and rescued more then i can count i love animals so much so that’s part of the reason i’m here also to pay with school i can take care of animals all day i do school from home so that’s another reason why i wanted to try this app i feel like i’d be a very good fit i have a fenced in yard and a open home i’m often in my room doing school and when im not i’m always taking care of my plants so the animals will most likely just be chilling sleeping in my room and then go outside with me in the fenced back yard
“Bunny and I were in pretty constant communication as we worked through the challenges of twice daily meds with a cat who hates pretty much everyone who's not me. She was persistent, asked for help when needed, and was able to get my beast to take most of his doses despite his cantankerous nature. I'd happily have her back to care for my boys.”
“Jeff was a perfect dog sitter💕. He took care of my dog like he owned him and made him feel welcomed throughout his stay! I received photos throughout my trip too! I have already rebooked with him for my next few trips!”
“Danielle did a great job sending me pictures and keeping me updated while I was away. When I returned, the house the way I left it and the pups were exhausted from the play time she spent with them. I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”
About: What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, and I take the time to make each one feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m happy to care for playful puppies, help reinforce basic training, and provide gentle, attentive care for senior pets. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands. Your pet will be treated like family! I work from home and have a very flexable schedule love having a ton of dogs available any time day or night weekends and holidays I have a huge fenced in yard with lots of room to play and run and lots of toys to play with large house love walks to
About: Hi, I’m Amy! 🐾🩷 I always joke that I should’ve been a vet because animals have had my heart my entire life, but I ended up in healthcare instead! I’ve always had German Shepherds, so big dogs don’t scare me, but I truly love all animals. Two legs, four legs, feathers, scales—or even an entire fish tank—I’m happy to help! 😂 I even have a house chicken named Isaac (who I found on the side of the road—true story!) who is completely convinced he’s a dog. 🐥 I work Monday–Friday from 8–4:30, so I’m available before and after work, evenings, and have much more flexibility on weekends. I also have a 10-year-old son who is an absolute animal lover and, with your permission, may occasionally join me while learning responsibility and proper animal care. ❤️ I’ll treat your babies like my own, send plenty of pictures and updates, and I’m always happy to meet beforehand to make sure we’re a great fit and everyone feels comfortable! 🐾🥰 Lakewood Park/Vero Beach area is ideal, but I’m happy to discuss surrounding areas too! 🩷 I work Monday–Friday from 8–4:30, so I’m available before work, after work, evenings, and bedtime visits. Weekends are much more flexible! 🐾 (Happy to do overnights as well!) Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first! ❤️ I’ll follow their normal routine and your instructions closely, give them lots of love and attention, and send plenty of photo updates so you know your baby is happy and safe. 🐾
“Alyssa was so helpful! She stayed in my Home to care for my Golden Retriever. She responded to messages quickly and kept me informed. I look forward to having her stay again next time I travel.”
About: Love animals and have always had dogs. Most recently, my 14 year old retriever taught me all the tricks to get picky pups to take their pills. I have a fenced in yard and love taking furry friends for walks. My husband and I currently work 8 to 5 during the week and are off on weekends so there is plenty of time for pet care/love. I have a fenced in yard and live on a dirt, dead end street, perfect for walks. No other pets in the house currently. We could also stay at your place if it’s easier for your dogs (mine was a home body so I can relate).
“Isabelle was amazing! She took excellent care of our two pups, as well as everything at our home for an extended 12 day trip abroad. We will definitely be booking again! Thank you Isabelle!”
About: Though I do not have a yard, I do understand the importance of daily activity (especially for dogs) and in regards to that, I live in close proximity to two dog parks. Growing up around different animals, I’ve grown fond, familiar, and comfortable with caring for different species (from rodents to felines and canines and pretty much anything in between). I am looking to make extra money and gain experience with different breeds of animals, as I am planning to embark on a journey into veterinary school. I love all animals and believe wholly in treating and caring for them correctly. I’ve had cats, dogs, rodents (gerbils, hamsters, guinea pigs) , ferrets, birds, reptiles (leopard geckos and turtles), and rabbits just to name a few. I’m always willing to go the extra mile for an animal (whether it’s my pet or not) and I get along with practically any animal and fully believe in building a strong bond with pets.
“Kaitlyn was absolutely amazing! She stayed overnight for 4 days at my home to care for my two dogs, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing they weren’t alone. That meant everything to me. She was incredibly responsive, always on time, and kept me updated, which made the whole experience stress free. My dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when I got back. I would 100 percent recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. She’s a great choice!”
About: I have been periodically dog sitting for family friends for about the last six years. I have experience with cats as well. I know how to feed, let out, walk, play with, administer medication to and clean up after both dogs and cats. I also really enjoy the job and helping people out in general. I am currently in flight school, so my schedule is all over the place. However, I have a lot of time that I do not need to be on campus/at the airport. I am on a block style schedule so the days of the week I am "on" shift and rotate a bit, but I am more than happy to work out what's best if you reach out. I will always treat your home as if it was my own. I take great care of my home and I wouldn't dream of bringing any harm to yours.
About: I worked as a dog groomer at Petco, so I’ve handled everything from energetic pups to shy or nervous dogs. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, and giving them lots of attention so they feel safe and happy while you’re away. With my part-time schedule, I’ve got lots of time for walks, playtime, and care. I’m available most weekdays outside of 2–5 PM and have open availability on weekends. When I’m in your home, I treat it and your pets with a lot of respect. I stick to your dog’s normal routine as much as possible—whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or potty breaks. I always keep a close eye on their behavior and make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention. If I’m staying overnight, I make sure they feel relaxed and not alone, just like you never left.
About: I have taken care of all sorts of animals my entire life. Dogs, cats, Rabbits, sugar gliders. Young, old, special needs. I do it all. I believe pets are like children, they love to learn. I am recently retired so I can devote as much time as needed for your furry ( not so furry) babies. A lot of love to give. I prefer to sit in the clients home as I feel the pet will be less nervous or anxious in familiar surroundings. I like the pet to get to know me in their own time. Trust is earned.
“Chaste was wonderful! She came over several times a day, like we requested and let our doggies out. We have cameras everywhere and we could see her playing fetch with our doggies, loving on them and making sure they were taking care of. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hailey did an amazing job caring for our home and pets while we were away for four days and three nights. From the start, she was professional, dependable, and easy to communicate with, which gave us great peace of mind during our trip. Our pets were clearly well cared for and received plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. Hailey kept us updated while we were away, and it was reassuring to know everything was going smoothly. When we returned home, our pets were happy and relaxed, and our house was clean, secure, and well maintained. Hailey went above and beyond our expectations and treated both our home and pets as if they were her own. Her rates were very fair, especially considering the outstanding level of care and service she provided. We highly recommend Hailey to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and caring house and pet sitter. We will absolutely be using her services again in the future. Thank you, Hailey!”

Whether you’re away for a weekend or a few weeks, I’ll treat your pets and home with the same care and respect I would my own.
“Amanda was the best!!!!! She was very sweet with the boys. I loved that she came to meet them and to see what exactly I expected for them. She went above and beyond what I asked for. She was sweet enough to take them for walks and to the park and to actually play with them!!!!! She sent me pictures daily and let me know when she was heading to my house and when she was leaving so I can set my alarm. I will definitely be contacting Amanda in the future. Definitely satisfied!!”
About: I have a dog. I’ve had my dog for over 10 years. I have experience with high energy animals as well as older animals that like to take it slow. I have a open flexible schedule and vehicle. I work from home so I can be with my animal and yours. The animals come first in the house, they have a schedule and I follow it. I work from home and create my own schedule around my animals schedule. Gated dog park in neighborhood. Dog harness and leash while outside the fenced area. Pick up poop from dogs while on a walk. Open concept for inside lounging and play. Multiple dog beds and a large couch in the living room.
About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life. I have 6 dogs at home of all different sizes. I have also worked at a dog boarding facility where I have taken care of dogs overnight. I have fed, given medications, let dogs out in groups, bathed dogs and interacted with many different temperaments. I am currently going to school so I am available any time after 2PM. I also work part time but love to spend time with all the animals I can! I care for all animals with equal trust and respect. I know that introducing a new person can be stressful for the animal so I like to make sure that they feel comfortable. I am comfortable taking animals out on walks or out into a fenced in yard!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Oslo
Jayla, we are so grateful we found you to care for our dogs on our trip away. You took not only such good care of them but also of our home. When we returned the house was neat and clean and the dogs were literally glowing. We are so happy we have found you and look forward to having you house and dog sit for us again. We feel you became not only a friend to our pups but to us as well. Please reach out for anything! Thank you again so much!
This was our second booking with Reva, and all the furry ones were spoiled and happy. Reva communicated with me during both booking and always sends plenty of pictures (so I can see the shenanigans the dog and cats try to pull). I definitely recommend Reva to care for your pets

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Oslo is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $83 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 532 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Oslo. 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 Oslo 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 Oslo 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 Oslo 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 with handling special pet needs in Oslo. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
