About: I’m a firefighter, lifelong dog lover, and avid sports fan with years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I grew up in a home that always had four or more dogs, which gave me a strong foundation in understanding their needs, behaviors, and quirks. During high school, I also volunteered for two years at the Oklahoma City Animal Shelter, where I gained valuable experience working with a wide variety of breeds. From tiny 5-pound Chihuahuas with big personalities to gentle 150-pound Akitas, I’m comfortable handling dogs of all temperaments and energy levels. I take pride in providing attentive, reliable, and compassionate care tailored to each dog. You can count on me to treat your dog like family keeping them safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m a firefighter, and my schedule is very open,I only work Sundays and Mondays, plus one Saturday night each month. That gives me plenty of flexibility and availability throughout the week to provide reliable, attentive care for your pet. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or just keeping your best friend company, I’ll be there whenever needed to make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I know that every dog has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to follow your instructions closely. From feeding schedules and walks to playtime, medications, and bedtime routines. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable by maintaining the routine they’re used to while giving them plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. Whether I’m caring for your dog in my home or yours, you’ll have peace of mind knowing they’re in a safe, clean, and loving environment. I also provide regular photo and video updates, so you can see how your best friend is doing while you’re away. I understand how important trust is when choosing someone to care for your pet, and I strive to make every dog feel happy, secure, and loved until you’re back home.

About: Animals have been my world for as long as I can remember. What started as helping family, friends and neighbors care for everything from birds to horses eventually grew into a lifelong career. Over the past 15 years, I’ve worked as a professional kennel technician and spent six dedicated years as a pet groomer. Because of this background, I bring a wealth of hands-on expertise to pet sitting, including administering medications, managing special routines, understanding strict diet precautions, handling grooming needs, and much more. This isn't just a professional skill set for me, it's a personal one. At home, I care for my own sweet pack of senior and special needs cats and dogs who require precise daily medications, so keeping your pet's health routine perfectly on track is second nature to me. I truly believe our pets are family, and they deserve nothing less than the absolute best. I would love to give your furry best friend the expert care, safety, and deep affection they deserve while you're away! I currently work full time in ER overnight Tuesday-Thursday. This allows me to be available most days, ecspecially Friday-Monday. My husband is also off during the summer, so if your fur babies are being boarded at my house, they have 24/7 care. In my home, I have a room dedicated to animals that I board. So if you want them kept separate from my animals they can be. If you want them to have company, I have both cats and dogs that are loving and love new friends. I have a huge back yard that is treated against things like fleas/ticks and it is animal safe. I can provide crates for any size dog if needed. I have tons of dog toys, cat toys, and little pools for cooling down on hot days. I spend a lot of time making interactive fun play times for all my animals. For cats, they also have their own room with calming Sentry plug in to help create a calm environment for them. They will have their own litter boxes, toys, and every comfortable place they can lay in with lots of sunlight. My husband is off in the summers, and I work nights so I am up at night on my days off, in our home your animals have 24 hour care. As far as for care in your own home, I will care for them anyway that you normally do. I offer walks, play time, I can give them pets and hugs, I will do whatever they need to feel comfortable and safe. I can follow any specialized routine your pet may need.

FAQs for House Sitting - Payne
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 355 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Payne. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Payne walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Payne maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Payne 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
