About: With 14 animals of my own and over 5 years of pet sitting experience, I truly understand every pet’s unique needs. I’m patient, dependable, and treat every animal like family. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or specialized care, your pet will feel right at home with me. What sets me apart is my deep, hands-on knowledge of animal behavior and genuine passion for giving pets the love and attention they deserve. I currently don’t work anywhere else which gives me plenty of time in the mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends to focus on pet care. Since animals are a huge part of my life already, caring for pets naturally fits into my daily routine. Whether it’s evening walks, weekend stays, or afternoon check-ins, I’m flexible and committed to making sure your pet feels loved and well-cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect their space and routines. I make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I follow all instructions carefully—whether it’s feeding, walks, medications, or playtime—and keep things clean and calm. My goal is to make your pet feel like you’re still there, providing peace of mind for both of you.
About: I have been a part time dog sitter, cat sitter, house sitter, etc since I was 10 years old. I've also been a volunteer at my local animal shelter since I was 15. I've taken care of old dogs, young dogs, energetic dogs, couch potato dogs, friendly dogs, shy dogs, big dogs, small dogs, you name it. I've been doing this a long time and I've gotten really good understanding each pet and their individual needs. Every dog is different, and I love them all. I also have experience with dogs who need medications and ear drops, and I am Red Cross certified in Pet First Aid! I provide pet care full time, helping owners have peace of mind when they have to leave their buddies behind for a trip, or to go to work, it makes me happy knowing I can help out people and animals who could use an extra set of hands. I have an active personal life, always making plans friends and family, but offering services on here allows me to plan my leisure time around times I'm needed for pet care. Firstly, I want to say I understand meeting people online and inviting them into your home can be very anxiety inducing, and I want to reassure you that with me, your pet, your house, and your belongings are safe. If you have ANY questions or concerns, please let me know. I'm here to help answer anything that could cause you worry. Your pets are part of the family and I understand staying safe is a priority. When I personally am trusted to stay in someone's home, I usually stick around the same area of the house out of habit. I keep food where it belongs to prevent mishaps, and keep things off the floor to prevent injuries of their me or pets. When going for walks I like to stick to trails or sidewalked areas that have decent cell reception, just in case. I keep treats with me, extra bags, and have a phone holder for my wrist so I can have a hand free, especially for dogs who get excited from wildlife and could suddenly pull really hard anytime. I keep a pop up bowl and a bottle for water breaks. Before going for longer walks I touch test the path in case they are too hot. I also have experience putting jackets on dogs in the colder months.

About: I love caring for pets of all ages and breeds, from playful puppies to gentle senior dogs and cats. I’m skilled in giving medications, as I care for my own senior dog. I can maintain special diets, and provide physical activity, as well as mental stimulation to keep pets happy and healthy. What sets me apart is my ability to read each animal’s special needs, as I have many pets of my own. I have much patience and compassion when it comes to pets, whether it’s training a puppy, assisting a senior pet with mobility, or simply offering cuddles and attention. I treat each and every pet as my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around feedings, walks, playtime, and check ins to make sure each pet gets consistent attention and care. I’m flexible and reliable, so I can accommodate different routines, whether that’s early mornings, evenings, or special care needs. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, and I make it a priority, not something I squeeze in. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and playtime instructions closely, while giving plenty of attention and affection. I keep the home tidy, clean up after pets (including litter boxes and feeding areas), and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is well cared for.

“Kerry has been SO great! She walks our puppy once a day during the week while we are at work. Kerry is very prompt and provides updates (including pictures!) that make us feel so comfortable while we are away. She is very trustworthy and we know we can count on her to take care of our baby! I highly recommend Kerry!”


About: I’ve always loved being around animas, I have experience of animal care of well over 10 years. From horses, to dogs, cats, to rabbits. I am very comfortable being around big and small animals! I am currently babysitting a few days during the week: Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays (rarely Wednesdays) from 1-6pm. I am usually very flexible with my schedule and always make an attempt to work things out! I will always make sure your pet has fresh, clean water and always goes potty! I always clean up after myself, and I put everything back where I found it.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and am experienced with dogs and cats. I have 2 senior dogs that I’ve had since they were puppies (a Newfoundland and a Basset hound), and 3 senior cats, so I’ve gotten pretty good at taking care of older animals with health issues, including giving meds orally and topically. I also have 2 cockatiels and a canary! I’ve been a stay-at-home mom for a few years. Now that my youngest is in kindergarten, I have time during school hours to work. I’d love to use that time taking care of your pets! I am careful and observant. I will always verify that your dog’s collar and leash are on securely before we leave the house. If you have a fenced in yard, I’ll ensure the gate is closed and latched, and I’ll watch to make sure your dog doesn’t get into anything it’s not supposed to.
“Tyler and Andrea took my 13 ½-year-old Lab for walks twice a day, morning and evening. Even though the agreement was for 30 minutes, they often walked an extra 10 minutes since my lab is very slow. They were always punctual, communicated clearly, and showed great patience. Walking Veera is not easy at his age, but they never complained and cared for him with kindness. Thank you for taking care of our fur baby while we were sick — it gave us such peace of mind.”

“I always book with Jen last minute because of my work schedule and she always finds a way to make herself available to walk or just keep Sidney company if it is too warm out. I always trust her judgement with this and I appreciate how she cares for her. I highly recommend Jen if needing Rover's services!”

About: Growing up with a dog my whole life, I've picked up a lot when it comes to dog behavior, body language, and keeping to a routine, things you really can only learn from actually being around dogs. I'm patient, attentive, and take it seriously when someone trusts me with their pet. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels, and I always make sure to follow each owner's instructions so their dog feels as comfortable as possible while they're away. Currently home for the summer from college, I have a flexible schedule working a part-time job with short hours. I am typically available most mornings and can adjust my schedule on a weekly basis to plan ahead for sitting jobs. I'm also happy to accommodate last-minute requests when my schedule allows. For dog walking, I keep your pup safe and engaged while sending updates along the way. For in-home sitting, I stick as closely as possible to your dog's normal routine so they stay comfortable. For drop-in visits, I make sure your dog gets the attention, care, and potty breaks they need so you can be away with peace of mind.
About: Hi! My name is Hope and I am a wife and mother to four children. We are huge animal lovers here! We have both cats and dogs. We live in a clean and nice sized home with lots of love and attention to give to your fur babies. I am home full time and will be available for day care or over night care. I would love to love on your babies while you’re away. We have had to use pet services when we traveled for work so I know how stressful it can be to find someone you trust. Just know your babies will be in good loving hands here. I would love the opportunity to speak with you further. Feel free to message me with questions or set up a home visit. Due to becoming extremely busy it is best to book as far ahead of time as possible so I am able to accommodate your booking. I’m booked up to a month in advance at this point. A night boarding request is good for a 24 hour period. If the pick up time is going to be extended beyond 24 hours from the start time I will add a day care charge to the end of your booking. Hours of operation for drop offs are no earlier than 7am and pick ups no later than 8pm. If you need outside of those hours I’m happy to take your pet a night early or extend the booking for another night.

“Daisy is such a joy to work with. She is so amazing with my dog reactive Great Dane, she always takes extra precautions and steps necessary to make sure their walks are a success and as low stress for both of them as possible. Today, with less than an hour before Harley’s scheduled walk, I threw Daisy for a loop and asked her if she could go to a different house that she’s never been to before to pick Harley up and on top of that, asked if she would mind bringing a friend to walk my stepsister‘s dog who was there with Harley. She had no issue accommodating to these plans and did not even expect to get compensated for the additional time and effort (which I absolutely did anyways). I would highly recommend Daisy to anybody looking for somebody to care for and love their pet! She is so amazing!”

About: I have had dogs all my life. I feel they are part of the family and treat them with love. Ear scratches are my specialty. I am an empty nester and have a very flexible schedule to let out your pets or give them walks with lots of sniffing to stretch their legs and tire their minds. I follow your instructions to make sure your pet is safe and attended at all times. Unless your yard is fenced or using an invisible fence, I will keep your pet leashed for their safety.
About: As a previous Assistant Manager at Pet Supplies Plus, I have a vast range of experience regarding animal care from dogs to ferrets to chameleons! Although Rover is something I’m looking to do on the side, pet care and education is something I’m very passionate about throughout my everyday career. Working at Leader Dog, I have gained the knowledge and experience to observe and assess a dogs mental state through body language and stress signals.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Oxford. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Oxford.

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 walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Oxford. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
