About: We own a local family pet care business; and we believe every pet deserves to be treated like family. With years of hands-on experience, advanced training, and a lifelong passion for animals, we provide reliable, loving care for pets of all kinds. I’ve lived with animals my whole life—dogs, cats, birds, and small pets—so creating a safe, comforting space for them comes naturally. With over 25 years of hands-on experience, I’ve worked with pets of all ages and needs, from energetic puppies to seniors and special-needs animals who require extra patience and understanding. I’m trained in Pet First Aid and always focus on maintaining steady routines and low-stress care. Whether your pet needs playtime, calm companionship, medication reminders, or just someone gentle they can trust, I’m here to make them feel at home while you’re away. My family also loves giving back to the community—we regularly donate to local shelters to help support animals in need. Caring for pets isn’t just something I do; it’s a part of who I am. My schedule is flexible and I’m available most days of the week. This allows me to give your pets the time and attention they deserve — and makes it easier for you to book care that fits their routine. I always supervise outdoor time to ensure they’re safe and happy. I make sure the environment is clean and tidy. My goal is to ensure they feel at home while their owners are away, with a mix of outdoor fun, indoor comfort, and plenty of love.

About: I’ve been taking my care of dogs for over 25+ years! I have spent time with puppies to senior dogs of all sizes. I currently work overnights from 4pm-3am on Tuesday and Thursday and Saturday 1pm-3am; outside of those times I would love to spend time with your dog. If you have any special requests or needs let me know. I am open to discussing bringing your dog(s) to and from special events if needed (I.e. weddings, showers, dinners, family event, etc.) I work Tuesday and Thursday from 4p-3a and Saturday 1p-3a at an emergency Veterinary hospital. Outside of that time I enjoy spending time with my dog or yours! I am familiar with crate training. Different types of leashes. I'm all ears to your dog’s needs, schedule, and comfort! I have experience with anti-social, scared of thunder and other loud noises, jumping fences, counter surfing NJ, poor walking skills, and so much more!!

About: I’m lucky enough to have an open schedule, which means your pet will get my full, undivided attention without being left alone for long stretches of time. I’ve taken care of a little bit of everything - dogs, cats, and even guinea pigs - so I’m really comfortable adapting to whatever unique routine your animal needs. My love playing with animals, chilling with them, and just watching them do what they do. One of my biggest strengths is working with pets who are on the shy or anxious side. I know how stressful it can be for them when their owners are away, so I’m incredibly patient. I know how to read their body language, give them the space they need, and just let them open up to me at their own pace until they feel completely safe. I am currently on summer break from college and take care of my own dogs at home. I make sure to give them everything they need from walks to play to just sitting around together. My main priority is keeping a constant eye on your pet and sticking as close to their normal routine as possible. Whether I'm staying at your place or visiting, your pet won't be left alone for long stretches, which really helps prevent separation anxiety. While I'm in a client's home, I will treat it with total respect and keep everything secure. I will make sure that all doors and gates are locked securely every time I leave your home, and I always keep dogs on a leash during walks. Because I have experience with everything from energetic dogs and cats to smaller pets like guinea pigs, I’m very aware of safety and choking hazards, like making sure small items or dangerous foods are out of reach.

We had such a great experience! Our request was very last minute, and she was incredibly accommodating and responsive. She even came by before our trip to go over everything, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was so kind, attentive, and clearly cares about the animals she looks after. She not only took great care of our cats, but was also able to check on our chickens, which we really appreciated. It made being away so much easier knowing all of our animals were in such good hands. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter!

From the reports and Rover card photos Izzy really enjoyed Emma's company, and despite being a shy cat, he came out and let her brush him right away. She made me feel comfortable leaving Izzy in someone else's care for the first time. I will definitely book her for my next trip, if she's available.

About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind from old to young since I was little. I have watched family dogs, and friends dogs both in the comfort of my own home and gone to spend the night at their houses. I’ve also trained my own dogs throughout the years, including potty training, simple commands, and crate training. I am currently working part-time at my job and stay home with my son. I am mainly home except for the weekends. And on the weekends, my husband will be home to help out. I have a fenced in yard and currently only have one dog of my own who is super friendly and very energetic so she will exercise your dog in our front yard. She loves to cuddle and she is crate trained. I also have an extra crate in case dogs need to be created for whatever reason.

Jake is seriously the best. He made a meet and greet with our little puppy an importance and has gone above and beyond with him. I love his constant communication, the picture updates, and how involved he is with our little boys care. He communicates about timing, ask questions, and ensures Onyx gets play time with puzzles games and fun beyond just doing the basics with him! Love love love Jake!!!

About: I’ve always had a pet in my house! I cared for my mother’s dog full-time during long recovery from back surgery! I have always had deep connections to animals and am patient but eager to gain their trust. I have accommodated for a wide range of furry personalities and I am excited to meet more animals over the summer. I am a college student home from campus all summer so I’m looking forward to spending some time in the sun getting some energy out with your pets! I am available Monday-Friday though weekends may vary! I can accommodate for a variety of environments. I have played with a group of dogs in a wide fenced in yard, as well as taking them to the dog park. I have a large fenced in yard with a deck to soak up the sun and get our sillies out. I also have a scenic park at the end of my cul-de-sac perfect for stimulation! I am happy to utilize whatever accessories and environments you find most suitable and comfortable for your pet! I am comfortable dressing your dogs in their harness and leash with ease and engaging in their favorite locations to explore!

About: I’ve cared for dogs of every breed, size, and energy level—from anxious rescues to giant goofballs. As a current volunteer at ACCT Philly, I work hands-on with all types of dogs daily, focusing on leash control, confidence-building, and reading body language. Friends and neighbors regularly trust me for overnight stays, multi-dog households, and high-energy pups because I stay calm, structured, and patient no matter what. I’m comfortable with puppy routines, senior care, and special diets, and I always make sure every dog gets the perfect mix of play, structure, and comfort. Whether it’s a jog around the block, a slow senior stroll, or bedtime snuggles—I tailor my care to your dog’s needs, not a one-size-fits-all plan. Pet care easily fits into my weekly routine. My schedule is flexible for walks, drop-ins, or overnights, and I make sure every pet gets consistent attention, playtime, and care. Whether it’s early mornings, lunch breaks, or evening cuddles, I’ll build my day around your pet’s routine. Safety and comfort always come first. In my home or yours, I make sure pets have a calm, clean, and secure space to relax and play. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, medications, and boundaries—so they feel right at home. I keep a close eye on body language and behavior to ensure they’re happy and stress-free, and I always send photo updates so you can see how well they’re doing. Whether it’s cats curling up for quiet time or dogs burning off energy, I create a safe, loving environment built on trust.

About: Hello! I’m an experienced pet lover with over 5 years on Rover, caring for pets of all shapes and sizes. As the proud owner of two Great Danes, ages 1 and 2, I understand the needs of larger breeds, from daily exercise to specialized care. My experience with these gentle giants has taught me patience, attention to detail, and how to handle big personalities with ease. Whether you need someone to walk, feed, or simply keep your pets company, you can trust me to provide the care and love they deserve. Looking forward to meeting your furry family members! I work at schools and have a lot of flexibility in the summer to meet your needs. My experience with large breeds means I’m comfortable managing pets of all sizes, ensuring they get the exercise, companionship, and attention they need. I look forward to giving your pets a safe and caring environment while you’re away! Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities during every visit, walk and stay. When caring for pets in their own homes, I ensure a safe environment by following your routines and respecting any special instructions you provide. I take precautions to make sure doors, gates, and other potential escape points are secure, and I always keep your pet on a leash during walks, using proper harnesses or collars to prevent accidents. I’m also vigilant about their surroundings to avoid any risks, such as unsafe plants, other animals, or traffic. Building trust with you and your pet is essential. I keep communication open, sharing updates and photos so you know how things are going and feel reassured that your pet is in good hands. With my flexible schedule, I’m able to dedicate time and attention to meet each pet’s unique needs, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and cared for even when you’re not there.

It was our first time going away since we adopted our cat. We were nervous and hesitant about leaving her while we were gone. Our timid cat warmed up to Cecilia right away and this made us feel so much better! Cecilia was attentive and followed our cat's routine. She did an amazing job with Lola and would we not hesitate having Cecilia watch our cat again.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Oxford

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of September 2026, there are 2,757 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Oxford. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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.

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.
