“We are very happy that we found Megan to do drop-in visits for our dog. She is very responsive and we loved seeing pictures of our dog while we were away. We will be using Megan again in the future.”


About: I am a lifelong animal lover with over 15 years of dedicated pet care experience who shares an instant bond with almost every pet I meet. As a proud pet parent to a 6 year old Heeler who is my absolute best friend and a cat I rescued from my driveway at just 6 weeks old, I have hands-on, daily experience managing diverse temperaments, intense exercise needs, and strict routines. My background spans the entire lifecycle of pet care, from nurturing young animals to providing compassionate senior care. I am entirely comfortable with specialized care requirements, including administering oral or topical medications, managing strict measurements or raw diets, and providing a calm, low-stress environment for high-anxiety or nervous pets. Raising a high energy working dog and a rescue kitten gives me firsthand experience with the unique needs, quirks, and daily routines of both dogs and cats. Pet care is my top priority and full-time focus. I am currently launching independent entrepreneurial ventures from home, which gives me complete control over my daily calendar and ultimate flexibility. I am available almost any time of day or week to dedicate myself fully to your pet. Your animal bestie will be my main priority, receiving constant supervision, timely potty breaks, and companionship. My flexible routine lets me adapt to your pet's exact daily schedule, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and fully cared for while you are away. Safety, structure, and peace of mind are the foundations of how I care for animals, whether they are staying at my home or yours. In my own household, my dog safely enjoys our yard because he knows his boundaries and responds instantly to commands. My cat on the other hand, lives a secure indoor lifestyle, with the occasional supervised leash walk! :) When caring for your pets, I balance absolute safety with plenty of engagement. For dogs, I maintain a strict policy of keeping them securely on a leash at all times unless we are within a securely fenced area, eliminating any risk of a dog running loose. Rest assured, structured fun is still a massive part of our day; we will enjoy plenty of energetic games, walks, and playtime, all while ensuring your furry family member remains completely safe and protected!

“Kathleen has been very reliable and has always provided feedback along with pic’s immediately after her visits with our Sophie. We have great piece of mind knowing that our Sophie is well taken care of.”

“Dylan is so awesome. He’s so good with our doggo learning what he likes and catering to his needs. Great communication and goes out of his way to make your pet happy and well cared for.”


About: Hi! I’m Jackie, a reliable and caring pet sitter who truly enjoys being around animals. I’ve had dogs in the past and currently have a cat, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet’s care and routine. I’ve also filled in for my sister-in-law’s dog walking clients, so I’m comfortable handling different dogs, following schedules, and making sure pets get the attention and exercise they need. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or laid-back, I take the time to match their comfort level and routine. I’m patient, attentive, and detail-oriented, and I follow owner instructions closely. You can expect dependable service, a calm approach, and regular updates so you know your pet is doing well. What I offer: • Dog walking and drop-in visits • Feeding and fresh water checks • Playtime and companionship • Litter box and basic cleanup • Photo and message updates • Care tailored to your pet’s routine Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I’d love the chance to meet you and your furry family member! I work from home, which gives me flexibility and reliability when it comes to pet care. I’m available for walks and drop-in visits on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 9 AM to 2 PM. Because I work remotely, I’m able to plan my day around scheduled visits and give pets my full attention during that time. Pet sitting fits naturally into my routine, and I make it a priority to be on time, consistent, and attentive to each pet’s needs. I always focus on safety, routine, and comfort when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. I follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk routines, medication needs, and behavior guidelines. I take time to learn each pet’s personality and comfort level so I can keep their stress as low as possible.
“Cassandra took excellent care of our 17 month old yellow lab 3 times a day for almost two weeks. We received updates and photos after each visit, which we really appreciated. Emily looks great and was very happy to see us when we came home, but we think that she will miss Cassandra’s visits.”

“Lila was on time everyday, no issues whatsoever. Out of my 3 cats, one can be difficult to deal with because she’s scared of everything. From what I saw Lila was actually able to get close to her. Very satisfied with her services.”

“Maggie was awesome! She took the time to understand all of our instructions on the best ways to care for our pets, and wasn’t afraid to ask questions if she wasn’t sure about something. Excellent communication throughout the whole weekend with really good pictures! Maggie went above and beyond and I will definitely be working with her in the future!”

“Faith was an exceptional dog sitter who exceeded all expectations. She was punctual every day, ensuring that our pups received consistent care and attention. Faith dedicated 30 minutes each day to sit with the dogs while they did their business, showing her commitment to their well-being. Additionally, she captured lots of great pictures of the pups, which was a delightful bonus for us. Her reliability and thoughtful care made a significant difference, and we highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter.”

“Mason was exceptional. She allowed me to book her literally last minute and said she could visit the pups without me home (emergency work trip). She was prompt and took great care of my pups, asking me any questions she had to best care for them. She sent me plenty of pics and the pups loved her!”

About: I’ve attended the TCHS animal science program for 3 years where I’ve worked with many small animals, and have learned how to handle them, care for them etc I’m now attending Harcum College in the major Animal center Management. Animals are what I’m passionate about. I’m currently working part time, and go to school, but am looking for a side job, and what’s better than playing with puppies? I would love nothing better. In my clients home I will treat their pets like my own. I will respect the space and your privacy as if it was my own.

“Colleen took wonderful care of my cranky cat and aggressive angelfish over the weekend. I felt much better leaving them in her hands rather than leaving them alone for the weekend. Thank you Colleen for the care you gave them.”
“Lacey was amazing. My dogs felt loved and was given the space they needed to play, cuddle, and or stand back and observe. She followed all my instructions and even stayed longer than she had to just to make sure my babies were okay. I cannot express the gratitude I feel. It was very scary leaving my babies in the care of a stranger, but they loved Lacey and she truly treated them as her own.”


About: # About Me Hi! I'm Marisa, a veterinarian with a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (VMD) degree from the University of Pennsylvania and a lifelong animal lover. Caring for animals has been both my profession and my passion for many years. My experience includes working in general and shelter medicine, caring for dogs and cats of all ages, providing medications, monitoring pets with medical conditions, and recognizing subtle signs of illness or discomfort. I also worked as a veterinarian for Guiding Eyes for the Blind, where I helped care for guide dogs throughout their training and working careers. Outside of my professional experience, I've raised a guide dog puppy, volunteered with therapy dogs, and have shared my home with dogs and cats my entire life. I currently have one senior Labrador Retriever and four cats, so I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet is an energetic puppy, a playful cat, a senior companion, or one who requires medications or a little extra patience, I will care for them as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while giving you complete peace of mind. I provide reliable communication, detailed updates, and plenty of photos throughout each visit or stay so you always know how your pet is doing. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and providing the compassionate, knowledgeable care they deserve! Over the past few months, I've been focusing on personal growth while also helping care for my aging parents. This has given me a very flexible schedule throughout the week and on weekends, allowing me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. Whether it's drop-in visits, walks, or overnight stays, I can be reliable, accommodating, and attentive to each pet's individual routine and needs. I strive to keep each pet's routine as consistent and stress-free as possible while they're in their own home. I'll follow your feeding, walking, medication, and exercise instructions carefully, provide plenty of attention, playtime, and affection, and make sure your pet has fresh water and a clean environment. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for until you return.

“Tracy was amazing with our big guy, Knox! We loved receiving photos and updates on how the walk/visit went. So thankful that she lives close by and can’t wait to continue to use her in our future. Highly Recommended!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Oxford on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of August 2026, there are 1,320 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Oxford. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
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.
