About: As a pet sitter, my dedication to providing exceptional care sets me apart. I have extensive experience in: Puppy Training: I can handle basic obedience training, housebreaking, and socialization to ensure your puppy grows into a well-behaved adult. Senior Pet Care: I am well-versed in the special needs of senior pets, including administering medication, monitoring health conditions, and providing gentle, attentive care. Behavioral Management: I can manage pets with anxiety or behavioral issues, creating a calm and safe environment for them. Health and Wellness: I am knowledgeable about pet nutrition, exercise requirements, and can identify early signs of health issues. Customized Care Plans: I tailor my care approach to each pet's unique needs, ensuring they receive the attention and love they deserve. My commitment to understanding and meeting each pet’s individual needs ensures they are happy, healthy, and well-cared for in your absence. Pet care is a significant part of my daily and weekly routine. I ensure a structured schedule that prioritizes the well-being of the pets in my care. My typical routine includes: Morning Routine: Early morning walks or playtime to ensure pets start their day with exercise and stimulation. Feeding breakfast and fresh water, along with administering any morning medications. Quick grooming session to check for any issues and ensure they look and feel their best. Midday Check-ins: Midday walks or outdoor playtime to break up the day and provide additional exercise. Midday meals or snacks if required, and a fresh water check. Brief health check to ensure pets are comfortable and healthy. Afternoon Routine: Another round of exercise or play, focusing on activities that engage their mind and body. Feeding dinner and fresh water, along with administering any evening medications. Spend quality time with the pets, offering affection and companionship. Evening Routine: Evening walks or relaxation time to wind down the day. Final health check and grooming if necessary. Ensure they are comfortable and settled for the night. Weekly Tasks: More extensive grooming sessions, including baths and nail trims. Thorough cleaning of pet areas, including bedding, toys, and feeding areas. Monitor and replenish supplies like food, medications, and grooming products. By integrating pet care into my routine, I ensure each pet receives consistent, attentive, and loving care throughout the day and week. In-Home Pet Care: Safety Measures: Conduct a thorough home inspection to identify and eliminate any hazards. Secure all doors, windows, and fences to prevent escapes. Keep toxic substances out of reach, including cleaning supplies and certain plants. Use pet-safe cleaning products to maintain a healthy environment. Trust Building: Arrange a meet-and-greet to establish a rapport with the pet and understand their needs. Communicate regularly with pet owners, providing updates and photos. Respect the owner’s home by following specific instructions and maintaining cleanliness. Environment: Create a comfortable and safe space for the pet with their bed, toys, and favorite items. Ensure access to fresh water and food, following dietary guidelines provided by the owner. Provide ample exercise and mental stimulation tailored to the pet's age, breed, and energy level. Client’s Home Pet Care: Safety Measures: Conduct an initial assessment of the home environment for potential hazards. Follow security protocols to ensure the home is safely locked and secure during visits. Administer medications and handle health concerns with utmost care. Trust Building: Schedule a meet-and-greet to get acquainted with the pet and discuss care routines

About: I’ve helped take care of all kinds of animals since I was a child. Birds, bunnies, dogs, cats: I love them all and they all seem to love me, I’ve even been called an animal whisperer before. I have a cat of my own now and I often take care of my neighbors dogs. I am a current Ole Miss graduate student conducting research in Biology. My schedule is very flexible, and can accommodate random drop-ins if need be, but I am also available for regularly scheduled visits! Your animals safety comes first, and will always be prioritized! I would love to take your furry friend on their favorite walking path, or to their favorite dog park, or keep them entertained away from other animals if necessary!

About: I’ve had a lifelong love of animals, and over the years I’ve gained hands-on experience in many areas of pet care. I’ve house sat, walked dogs of all sizes, and done regular check-ins for meal times and pee breaks. When I’m home, I’m often trusted to care for my mom’s colleagues’ pets—many of whom are doctors with busy schedules—which has taught me to be responsible, reliable, and flexible. Now that I’m away at school, I’m excited to bring that same level of care to your pets. What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with cats, my comfort with dogs, and my genuine desire to make every pet feel safe, happy, and loved as if they were my own. I’m a student, so whenever I’m not in class, I’m home and available to care for pets. That means I have plenty of time throughout the day for walks, check-ins, playtime, and cuddles. My flexible schedule makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my daily routine and give your pets the attention they deserve. In my townhome, pets have access to a safe, comfortable space with lots of attention and love. My complex has fenced-in play areas perfect for letting dogs run and play, as well as nice trails nearby for daily walks and exercise. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely—whether that’s meal times, walks, play, or just giving them company—so they feel secure and cared for in their own environment.

About: I've been a dog owner for many years and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I currently have two Miniature Dachshunds, so I'm experienced with dogs of different personalities, routines, and care needs. I have hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding schedules, administering basic medications when needed, playtime, and providing plenty of love and attention. I know that every dog is unique, and I take the time to learn each pet's routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you're away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with company, I'll make sure they receive the personalized care and attention they deserve. My goal is to treat every pet like they're part of my own family and give you peace of mind while you're away. I am a graduate student at Ole Miss. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. I'm available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, as well as walks and overnight care when needed. I enjoy spending time with animals, so I make it a priority to give each pet plenty of attention, exercise, and care while sticking to their normal routine as closely as possible. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions before every visit. I always make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a clean, safe environment. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect your space and follow your instructions closely so your pet can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure during walks and outdoor time, and I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.

About: I have been loving and caring for animals since I could walk. They have always had a special spot in my heart and life. I have always considered my animals my best friends. I would do anything for them. My favorite thing is to give my furry friends all the attention they deserve. I truly believe animals save us in a way no person can. This is why I love taking care and getting to know many different fur babies. I will give my all into making sure your best friend is comfortable and cared for, because animals deserve the best that this world has to offer. Pet care fits into my daily routine when I spend the first hour of my day making sure my animals are taken care of before all. I care for pets in my home by feeding them twice a day(or the schedule you have set). I have a big, spacious, fenced in, backyard with an insulated doghouse, shaded turf and many toys for their enjoyment. I have a lot of time to spend with them as well; seeing as I am home most of the time. I have 2 dogs of my own and a cat. They all get spoiled every day and live a very happy and fulfilling life.

I work part-time at a doggie grooming salon and get to have more experience with animals every day. Animals are my passion and I plan to do this for the rest of my life. I have a small dog in my home with a small crate. At the clients home I would keep eyes on the baby at all times.

About: Having fostered puppies and cared for multiple senior dogs, I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages and energy levels. I can run high-intensity dogs, walk slower ones, bathe them, and give each the love and attention they deserve. I have class from 8-9:30 am on M/W and from 2:30-4 on T/Th. I will be in Oxford most weekends! Because I live in an apartment, I give my dog frequent walks and am experienced keeping pets active and stimulated. When caring for a dog in their home, I follow their established routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest.

About: I’m a freshman in college and a lifelong dog lover with two dogs of my own. I’ve grown up caring for dogs of all ages — from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I’m very comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, administering basic medications, and giving lots of love and attention. As a freshman in college, my schedule is pretty flexible! I’m free after 12 most days and also have availability in the mornings between my classes for walks, drop-ins, or check-ins. I love being able to break up my day with some puppy time!

I’ll also send regular updates and pictures so you can feel totally at ease while you’re away!! I have two dogs of my own and have watched many dogs back home so im very reliable!

About: I have experience caring for a variety of animals—including dogs, cats, rabbits, and even chickens! I truly love animals and treat every pet like my own. I've helped many families with pet sitting and always enjoy the time I get to spend with their furry (or feathered!) companions. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or needs a little extra TLC, I’m here to give them the love and attention they deserve. I'm currently a student at Ole Miss with one in-person class at 12 PM on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I'm available before 11:30 AM and after 1 PM on those days, and fully flexible on all other days. Whether you need early morning, afternoon, or evening care—I'm happy to work around your schedule, even at sunrise or sunset! When caring for your pet, I focus on keeping them happy, active, and comfortable. I love spending quality time with animals—whether that means playing, walking, or just relaxing together. If your dog enjoys social time or exercise, I have access to a secure, enclosed dog park in my community that we can visit (with your permission, of course). Above all, I’m here to give your pet the attention, affection, and care they deserve.

Jenna did an excellent job following detailed instructions. She always made sure to send pictures and asked questions to ensure the dogs were as comfortable as possible. She had to deal with handymen coming in and out of the house during her stay and went out of her way to keep the dogs safe during the process. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Oxford on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 136 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Oxford. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Oxford stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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. 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

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.

To find sitters in Oxford with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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.
