About: As someone who knows that your pet is a part of your family, you can trust that I will do my absolute best to take care of them. I have been a pet sitter for 4 years, providing exceptional care to the pets of neighbors, family, friends and clients. I have experience caring for pets with special needs, dietary restrictions, and medication. I’m currently working full time, but I’m available for overnights with any pet! I’m okay with traveling the distance to your house to watch your pet as well as house sit if needed! I understand that animals feel most comfortable around familiar surroundings, and wouldn’t want to displace them. I’m very flexible, just let me know when I’d be needed. The environment will be your own home. Your pet will not feel displaced, and will remain comfortable in his or her own bed. I understand that familiarity is key when owners are away.
About: I’ve been around dogs all my life, but started caring for them on my own since I was 10 years old. As I got older, I was around cats more and more, and now I have a great love for both pets!! My experience includes walks, potty breaks, playtime, overnighting with pets, senior care, and caring for high energy dogs. I often work on the weekends and Wednesday nights, but like to stay busy during the week. Staying busy mostly means being active and running errands. Pet care is a perfect opportunity for me to fill in the gaps! I will visit the pets as much as needed, feed them when advised to, pet them and play with them, and take them on nice, relaxing walks.

Saturdays are usually always free so I have the time to really care for your pets needs! I’m willing to discuss what availability you’re looking for. I am open to almost all special requests you might need for you pet! Whatever practices/care needs you are looking for, I am willing to adjust to.

About: What sets me apart is over 10 years of hands-on experience dog sitting, along with a deep sense of responsibility and care. I truly love animals and bring that same energy to every pet I look after. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, including seniors who need gentle, attentive support. I also have experience caring for elderly people, including my own grandmother, which has taught me patience, empathy, and the importance of routines. Whether it’s administering medication, giving extra cuddles, or sticking to a strict schedule, I’m all in when it comes to compassionate care. It fits into my daily and weekly schedule because I’m a stay at home dad with a lot of time on my schedule that would enjoy the company of a fur friend around that can keep me busy!! When pets stay in my home, I treat them like part of the family. I make sure they have a cozy spot to relax, stick to their regular routine as much as possible, and give them plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I keep my space clean, safe, and calm so they can feel comfortable, whether they’re staying for a day or a whole week. My goal is to make it feel like a second home for them. Also when taking them out I have a fenced yard as well as a front gate so there’s no running away or escaping on my watch!

About: Hey guys! My name is Lauranmarie. Short background on me.. I graduated from Mercy college with a Bachelors degree! I am looking to make some extra money doing something that i love, and i absolutely love animals! I am very outgoing and energetic! My whole life i’ve taken care of different types of animals and it brings a smile on my face! I have had dogs my whole life ranging in different sizes / breeds.. so i am pretty comfortable with all! Recently we had to put down my boxer “Deezul” and i was very upset losing him.. he was a part of our family for a long time and it was very hard to go through that process. We have two dogs at home named Milo and Koda..Milo is a King charles Cavalier, Koda is a boxer mix! They both usually get along with other dogs, Koda gets a little territorial, and may bark a lot, but once he is used to you and your dog there is never a problem! I hope you enjoyed a little bit about who i am and i hope to hear from you and your furry one soon(: Currently pet care is the only thing I am doing, so I will have plenty of time to watch you’re pet! They are in a great home at Laws Paws I have an unfenced yard, so walking them on a leash is necessary! However, I have a wrap around deck outside that is gated so the dogs can play outside on a nice day! I currently am doing this full-time… I have plenty of time to board your furry friend in the comfort of my home! They will be in good hands! I am home with the dogs all day long… Constantly playing with them taking them out for walks and updating owners with videos and pictures daily so you feel comfortable with them here while you’re away
About: Welcome, y'all! I love watching dogs. We watch kitty cats too 😁. Cheapest rates around! Let me make it easier for you to celebrate your vacation and holidays! Let me sit for your pup. I...love... dogs! My parents were dog breeders for years. As a youngster, I was responsible for many of the chores. As an adult, I have always had pets. I know how important your dog is to you. Your dog is your 'baby'. We are definitely dog lovers in this house! Big dog specialist. I love the little dogs too, though! ☺️💪🎄🎁❤️🩹 I will treat your pup like my own. I am a teacher during the day. I'm usually home by 3. I'm home every afternoon and every night and every weekend. I do have flexibility in my work schedule should they need arise. I have a dog lead hooked up to the house and it goes all the way back to the maple tree on the back of the property. 20 ft in either direction gives Fido plenty of room to go to the bathroom. Otherwise, your pup is in the house with me and my family. I am offering dog boarding services. This is a friendly Christian home. Lots of love to share.
“We are so happy to have found Charlie! Our chocolate lab is full of energy and tends to pull on walks. After meeting Charlie and learning about her experience working with larger dogs, we felt very comfortable leaving him in her hands. She kept us updated and even sent over photos of the visit. We’ll definitely be using her again in the future!”

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Oxford 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!
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
