“We’ve had many in-home dog sitters over the years. We always used a trusted friend or coworker to stay in our home to care for our beloved pets. After moving to Vero Beach we didn’t have those options. Therefore we decided to try the Rover app. After reviewing several potential sitters, we selected Rebekah. Boy, did we make the right choice. We cannot say enough good things about Rebekah. Rebekah is prompt, reliable, communicative, respectful and most importantly, wonderful with our gorgeous Chow Chow, Grace. She provided regular proof of life photos and text updates. She was very respectful of our property, and was gentle, loving and attentive to Grace. Additionally, our house was cleaner than when we left it! We recommend Rebekah to anyone seeking a kind, professional and trustworthy in-home pet sitter in Vero Beach.”
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
“Mia was great! She sent photos, kept in contact and is super sweet. I had were no issues whatsoever and felt completely at ease. She was super neat and tidy and our home looked exactly the way we left it - and I doubt she got any help from my dog :). She saved us in a bind after a booked Rover sitter needed to cancel on short notice. We will call Mia again. Thank you Mia!”
“Jayla took such great care of our Finley! We received texts and pictures of him while she was watching him and we appreciated that so much! Highly recommend her and will be hiring her again soon!”
About: Have had animals in my life since I was a baby, ranging from dogs to hamsters to birds and many cats. Fostered kittens in college with my best friend and volunteered at HALO in high school, would love to be around animals again! I currently work full-time from Tues-Fri but have my weekends free and typically evenings! I’m a big time reader, so even if i’m stopping in to give them some company it’s no problem, I’ve got a book I can get lost in with some company. I typically will not be able to house any pets currently but am more than happy to come by your place to keep them comfortable in their space.
About: I thoroughly enjoy going on a long walk with a dog by my side. I treat dogs as though they are humans and love being in their company. I am often available and am happy to help where need-be. I am good with dogs that bite and big dogs as well. I will treat your dog with respect and care for him/her like a human. I love dogs and this job is such a positive in my life. I handle pets responsibly and as though they are children. I read/listen to instructions carefully and will not hesitate to ask questions. I am prompt and will not hesitate to communicate if there are any issues. I will give your good boys and girls the love they deserve and i’m grateful for the experience!

It is my goal to provide the best care I can to all animals. I guarantee your pets will be treated like family.

As I am a recent graduate I have nothing but free time until starting my job so I can tailor my schedule to fit your needs Each pet is unique in what they need and require. My care provides quality attention to detail and personal requirements of your pet. As a vet I understand medical conditions and can provide for those needs as well!
About: I have been around dogs my entire live and the past 5 or more years I've been taking care of medium sized dogs while staying at the owners house. I have plenty of experience with walking and treating a dog and also giving baths. I would love to take care and play with your animal. I am currently a student at UNF and I don't have time to work a full-time or even a part time real job because of my class schedule. So that is why I wanted to get into dog walking or animal sitting because it is easier for me to work around my class schedule. I currently live in a apartment that is strict about animals so I won't be able to house at my place but I am more than happy to watch at your place or take them somewhere to walk.
About: I have experience from my own pets throughout the years and being a vet tech for 7+ years. I have experience with cats and dogs. I can take care of them young or old. Just let me know your routines and i will try to fill the void while you are gone. I work at an animal hospital during the day so I can stop in before work, on my lunch break and after work, whichever you prefer. Im not offering home services at the moment, but if you would like me to stop in and make sure your pet has the best care. Also if medications are needed to be given, please let me know. I can do so and also make sure no love is lost when you are gone. I love animals and its one of the reasons why I got into the Vet field.
“Madeline is wonderful! She took great care of our dog who is very sensitive and gave our cats lots of love and attention. The house was in perfect order and all of the pets were clearly well cared for while we were away. We truly appreciate it and would love to book again!”
“We arrived home to very happy fur babies! It’s obvious that Danielle took excellent care of our girls. Thank you so much Danielle. We will definitely seek you out for our next trip!”
“Melissa took excellent care of our dog Lola and her cousin Oliver on an overnight at our home! I received frequent updates and tons of photos of the dogs being loved and cared for. I was super impressed with Melissa and her son’s love for our dogs. I can’t say enough good things about Melissa!!”
“Leonard took to Chelsea immediately. She was accommodating and communicative and I’m REALLY grateful for her time with him. She took such sweet photos of him too!!”
“Lillian was great! Had a lot of updates and and photos which made me know he was in good hands. Was very patient with his little quirks and also grateful dealing with his escape attempts. Made Maverick feel very comfortable while we were away.”
“Natili was wonderful. She shared pics and texted me to keep me updated on Bailey. Bailey did escape the yard at one point and Natili drove around the neighborhood to find her. Her dedication to caring for Bailey was above and beyond!”

We are so grateful for Jayla! She took such good care of our sweet girl Shelby. Jayla handled her complex needs perfectly and we felt so comfortable with her in our home. We would highly recommend her to anyone and will definitely be using her again in the future 😃❤️🐶
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
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!
We are so pleased Nadtali He did an excellent job watching our picky little maltese named Pookie. He was very attentive and she liked him a lot. He played with her and adhered to all our instructions. I would highly recommend him and look forward to hiring him again in the near future,

FAQs for House Sitting - Oslo
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Oslo on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 521 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 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 Oslo. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
