About: I've housesat and taken care of dogs for friends and family members since I was a kid. I've been told I have an energy that animals really respond to. I can no longer have a pet of my own, and I miss my dog every day, I just want to be around dogs again, and help out pet parents. I just opened a bar on my own so it is practically impossible for me to have a dog full time, but my schedule is also flexible enough where I could make sure to give a lot of attention to a dog on a part time basis. I am happy to watch a dog at your home or mine, I have a fenced yard and plenty of parks and trails nearby to walk around.
“Khala is absolutely awesome. She was very accommodating and personable. This was my first time being away from my Sasha and my mind was at ease! Will definitely use Khala to sit again.”
“Catherine is absolutely lovely and clearly loves dogs! My pup was welcomed as if she was one of the pack already. Catherine did an amazing job of introducing her slowly to the other dogs and took great care of Lady. Would definitely book again!!”
“Kanika and Jan were great! They sent updates frequently and have been so understanding and accommodating with my schedule. Will continue booking with them in the future, I highly recommend them! They also administered medication to my dog when he was sick. They are awesome!!”

“Rachelle is amazing. Boarded our Blue Heeler/Boston Terrier mix for over a week this summer and it couldn’t have gone better. Our dog has high energy, high anxiety and at 10-years-old had never been boarded, but Rachelle gave our dog a great home away from home, kept us updated the whole time, and even sent the dog home with some treats. Our dog is a handful, but Rachelle handled her wonderfully, and now our dog loves her.”
“She was very understanding of our somewhat bossy dog and clearly treated him as one of her own. Her dogs also seem to have great energy for welcoming new dogs into their home. She sent us updates with adorable pictures included and was very quick to respond to any questions. Would definitely use her again if we weren't moving states soon.”
“April was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Teddy! From the very beginning, she was communicative and flexible, even allowing a pre-meeting to make sure our dogs got along—which gave me great peace of mind. During his stay, Teddy had a fabulous time with plenty of walks, attention, and companionship. I could tell he felt right at home. April and her family were kind, accommodating, and clearly experienced with dogs. I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again!”
“Rebecca and Aaron became family for our dog Lola. They provided such great care. Communication is AMAZING! We received daily pictures and videos. We didn’t feel stress for a minute to leave our dog with them as we were reassured she was happy and enjoying her stay with them. Their dogs are really sweet as well, great companion for my Little Lola. Thanks for taking such good care of her and we hope to see u soon! ❤️?”
About: I have had dogs since I was 6, taken care of them my whole life, but don’t have one of my own currently sadly. I want to get a dog within the next year so would to take care of yours while I am interviewing from home! I work from home for now, interviewing for residencies, with lots of time to take pets out throughout the day. I go on long walks and runs on my own daily so will keep your pet happy and active! I love caring for pets, petting and cuddling with them, taking them on long walks, and playing with them indoors while I am sitting around.
“Michelle was amazing with our dog Leo. This was our first time dropping Leo with her. She is someone who genuinely enjoys dogs and doesn’t mind going over n beyond to keep your pup happy. She kept us informed throughout the day with pictures and information about his day. We couldn’t have asked for more. Will definitely drop our dog again with her. Thanks Michelle!”
“Kimberly was sooooo patient with our two young boys. This was our first experience and I don't think we'll go with anyone else. She sent updates with pics and that put us at ease on our trip. Highly recommend Kimberly.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Oxford
We are so incredibly grateful for the care and flexibility Briana provided. We had some last-minute changes in our plans because one of our dogs was experiencing significant anxiety, and she immediately stepped in to help. She was not only understanding, but went completely above and beyond to accommodate us by adjusting and housesitting so our dog could stay in a familiar environment. She took the time to make sure our dogs felt comfortable and safe, and she kept us updated, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. Knowing someone so reliable, compassionate, and adaptable was with our dog meant everything to us. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care.

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 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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in OH ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
