“We chose Brittney being that she is local, and also had some great reviews! I have no problem leaving another 5 star review. From our first “meet and greet” Brittney has been awesome! Very easy to work with, easy going and accommodating. Has a great work ethic and takes great care of our pup Leia, (Princess) from feeding, to walking and just spending time with her socializing.”
About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember! I grew up surrounded by cats and dogs of all breeds, sizes and ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors, so I'm comfortable with all kinds of personalities and needs. Today I have a 5-year-old Golden Retriever and a 5-year-old cat. They grew up together and are honestly best friends (yes, they cuddle 🐶🐱) I'm a true animal lover at heart, and my dream is to one day open my own animal rescue. Until then, I'd love to visit and walk your furry family member and give them all the love they deserve! 💛 I'm a full-time mom, so my schedule is very flexible and I can easily fit visits and walks into the day. I love being outdoors as much as possible, so your dog will get plenty of fresh air and exercise with us! 🌳🐾 I only offer drop-in visits and walks, so your pet stays in the comfort of their own home 🏡 During visits, I follow your routine as closely as possible: feeding, fresh water, medications if needed, litter box cleaning for cats, and of course lots of playtime and cuddles. I always keep an eye on how they're eating, behaving and feeling, and I'll let you know right away if anything seems off. For walks, I adapt the pace and length to your dog's energy, age and needs, whether that's a calm stroll around the block or a more active outing at the park. I'll send you photos and updates after every visit so you can see how happy your baby is! 📸🐾
About: I work at a groomers, so I have experience with handling all kinds of dogs big or small! I’ve had dogs all my life growing up , and friends have relied on me to walk and feed their dogs countless times. Caring for pets is already a big part of my daily life. My biggest goal is to make sure all of them feel comfortable and safe while they’re in my hands. As well as owning animals my whole life, I feel extremely comfortable around all types of dogs. I care for every furry friend as if they were my own. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while sticking to their normal routine as closely as possible. I’ll provide plenty of potty breaks, fresh food and water, playtime, and lots of attention. I’m also happy to give medications if needed, clean up any accidents, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing 😊
About: I have lived with cats and dogs for my whole life! Last year I moved from my parents' house in PA to the house I share with my husband in NJ, and we now have two cats of our own, Sunny and Honey! While living in PA, I volunteered at Furry Feet Rescue for approximately four years and help my sister in her pet-sitting ventures when I am able. I am so excited to meet your fur babies! I am available after my full-time job (Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings from 5- 10 p.m.) and some weekends. I am not available for overnight stays but will make sure that your fur baby has all of their needs met in the time I am scheduled for each day. I have been babysitting and pet-sitting in other people's homes since I was a teenager. I am very good at meeting the needs of others and following directions. The care and safety of your home and pets are my priority during my visits.
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.

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.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Oxford
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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 2,722 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Oxford. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
