“Berkley was timely and communicative during the month that she watched our cats. There were no concerns while we were away because of her transparency and follow-up after each visit. We would recommend her services to anyone looking for a quality sitter that’s welcoming and looking to provide the best care for your pets.”
“Nicole stepped in to assist with our dog during a family emergency where I had to travel out of state at the last minute. Without hesitation she took care of our very particular Lacey - walks to the pond close by, and tackled the process of feeding Lacey - which is not easy - but handled it like champion! We are forever grateful for Nicole’s help and we will reach out to her in the future as our dog walking needs arise. AND she was kind enough to bring us ice cream treats 🍦”
“Sarah is awesome! We needed someone to stay with our newly adopted 7 year old German Shephard as he has separation anxiety and would have destroyed our house if left alone. When we returned Duke was calm and the house was in tact. We appreciated the updates with pictures and videos. Sarah truly loves animals and we look forward to having her care for our fur baby again”
“Teri took care of our two cats and did an excellent job. She followed all instructions and took the time to play with and engage with our cats. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter. She also cleaned up after the cats. Thank you, Teri and Rover!”
“Hailey was amazing! I was able to relax the whole time I was away. She was prompt and went above and beyond to hang out and play with my dog. Seeing all the pictures each time made me so happy! Definitely recommend!”

“Tifany has been amazing she definitely goes above and beyond for the animals and her customers. Our pups were mad that we left and decided to chew the couch cushion up and Tiffany picked up the stuffing and got to sewing so they wouldn’t continue to rip it up more. She’s 100/100 amazing!”
About: I love dogs. Friends call me the whisperer. I lost my Princess 2 years ago to cancer and I find that this is the best medicine for me. I love to travel so having another baby right now is not in the cards. Taking care of your baby is the next best thing. I have had people fly me out to Portland, California, and New York to pet sit for them. I absolutley love it. Some of the dogs I have cared for were sick or new family members. I love to take them on new adventures but only if Mom and Dad are okay with it. I also love to train, play, and hug on them. My only job is taking care of your dog, so I am with them the entire day and night. Sometimes they will go on a golf cart ride with me. My yard is not fenced in so your dog would be walked regularly. There are plenty of grassy areas next to and accross the street from me. If there is a schedule you have for the dog that is what will be followed.

About: By career I am a Special Education teacher and have been teaching for over 15 years. I recently moved back to FL to stay with family in order to go back to school. In my free time, of course I love dogs, all kinds of dogs 🥰. I have always said if I had endless funds and space I would have a 100 dogs!! 🤩 Other than dogs, I enjoy yoga, meditation, therapy, nature walks, outdoors, seasons (Summer and Fall...can forget the rest 😂). I am looking forward to meeting your furry friend soon 🥰. Pet care is an amazing way to get extra exercise, fresh air and extra puppy/doggy love 🥰. Dogs don't know how valuable they are as previous animals. Even though humans can't talk to dogs and the other way around. I believe it is important to listen to/observe a dogs body language and cues such as barking, paw placement, ears, tail etc... A dogs physical health is just as important as his emotional health.

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
