“Ayshah stayed in our home to watch our two Frenchies. One was a puppy so he needed more care, time, patience and attention during our 3 night absence. She sent a daily picture.”
“Sahara was wonderful! Our previous sitter cancelled last minute, and Sahara made herself available to watch our 3 dogs 5 days before we left for vacation! I always have some anxiety about leaving my pups for vacation, but Sahara made me feel comfortable that they were in great hands. She sent videos and photos daily, and kept me updated on how she was taking care of them. We will gladly use Sahara again and are so grateful for her!”
“We felt comfortable with Nadia from the initial meet and greet to care for our dog and cat and entrusted her to house sit while we were out of town. She took great care of our pets and made their time away from us a great experience for them as well. We would definitely recommend her to watch your pets and house so your time away is worry free.”
About: I have over 17 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I cared for and loved my family dog for 17 years, including daily walks, feeding, bathing, basic training, and senior care. I also have experience as a dog bather, so I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes, personalities, and coat types. I’m very attentive to safety, cleanliness, and each dog’s individual needs, and I always treat every pet with the same care and attention I would give my own. Pet care fits pretty easily into my routine. I do work full-time, but I still have a pretty flexible schedule and can make time for your pets. I’m happy to help with walks, playtime, feeding, and giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I’m available on weekdays and weekends before 6pm, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine when I can. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and attentive environment and always follow owner instructions carefully. With my dog bathing and grooming background, I am confident handling pets safely and recognizing stress signals or health concerns. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and respect, ensuring they feel secure and loved whether in my home or yours.
“Arnoldo has watched my dog a few times now and is the perfect sitter for him. Because Ernie has separation anxiety, he requires house sitting while I run errands. Arnoldo is super communicative and shares updates throughout his stay, which always gives me peace of mind. Will definitely continue to book Arnoldo!”
“Sean was absolutely wonderful. He played fetch with the boys, took them on walks, cuddled with the boys and KittyKat and checked in and sent pictures. When I arrived home the boys and KittyKat were excited to see me and very content and I could tell they were well cared for and enjoyed Sean. Lastly, Sean is a very respectful and thoughtful house guest and I enjoyed coming home to happy pups and cat and a clean home.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs through every stage of life, from raising puppies to supporting senior dogs with medical needs. My last dog was with me for 15 years and eventually became blind-she was also epileptic, so I’m very comfortable with patience, medication routines, senior care, and providing calm, attentive support to anxious or aging pets. I currently have a well-socialized 2-year-old Mini Schnauzer that I raised from 8 weeks old, so I understand the importance of structure, consistency, exercise, and positive interaction. As a retired military veteran, I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and home full time, which means pets in my care receive a lot of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy creating a calm, safe environment where pets feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m retired and home full time. I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, medication support if needed, and lots of supervision throughout the day. Because I don’t have children or a demanding work schedule, I’m able to give pets consistent attention and maintain a calm, low-stress environment. In my home, pets have access to a safe, calm environment with a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, exercise, and potty breaks. I also have a friendly 2-year-old Mini Schnauzer who enjoys the company of other dogs. I follow each pet owner’s instructions closely regarding feeding schedules, walks, routines, medications, crate preferences, and exercise needs. I understand how important consistency is for pets, especially when they’re away from their owners. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible while also making sure they receive attention, affection, exercise, and attentive care.

Mellanese was wonderful! She was polite, punctual, so sweet and great with our two golden retrievers. They loved her! Mellanese took good care of them and she reached out to us with updates. She left our home just as she found it. We hope she is available the next time we need a pet sitter.

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 Red Oak 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 Red Oak 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 Red Oak 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 , 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 .
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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
