“Angela did great with our bulldog! She stayed over at my house for a weekend and left the house as clean as when we left. She followed instructions very well and sent great updates throughout the day. She also reached out when she was concerned about our dog’s allergies and that was extremely kind of her! Would definitely book again!”
“We needed a sitter at the last min. She came same day and did the meet and greet. She was very nice and the dogs liked her. For it to be her first time house sitting she did an excellent job. We would most definitely use her again.”
“We had an amazing experience with Amanda! She was so kind and attentive! All 3 of our dogs loved her right away, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were out of town! She kept us updated, took great care of them, and left our home clean and tidy. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely book with her again!”
“Armani was fabulous!!! She helped us out very last minute when we were in a bind, sent great updates with pictures and took care of our baby when she had an accident. We definitely recommend Armani and plan on rebooking in the future!”
“We couldn’t be happier with Cassie’s care of our home and dogs while we were away! We have two middle-aged dogs and a puppy, and each of them was clearly well loved and cared for—happy, relaxed, and full of energy when we returned. Cassie went above and beyond in keeping our house spotless; in fact, it was cleaner than when we left, which is saying a lot given all the rain during our trip. It gave us such peace of mind knowing both our pets and our home were in such capable hands. Cassie is responsible, attentive, and truly wonderful—we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Morgan is an amazing house sitter for Remington! This is our second time booking because WE LOVE MORGAN!! 💗 She is communicative, kind, and kept me updated with pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. Remington is clearly well cared for and adores Morgan, and my home was once again left in great condition. I will absolutely book with Morgan again! ⭐️”
“Ty did a fantastic job taking care of our anxious pups! He provided photos/video updates daily and we could see how happy our dogs were. Not only did he provide loving care with walks, playtime, and cuddles; but he also did personal training sessions with our dogs as well to help improve their behavior. He is professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and experienced. We will definitely book with Ty again!”
About: My experience started when I was around 9 years old. My aunt had a cocker spaniel so that was my introduction into what caring for pets looked like. I treated Diamond, her name, as if she was my own. I learned how to bathe her, feed her, discipline her, play with her, and take her for walks. That same aunt then got three more dogs; a yorkie, a cavapo, and a pit bull so I got experience with taking care of three different dogs at the same time. It was beneficial because all three dogs had their own personalities. Also, pit bulls are so sweet and not the monsters the media says they are:). Next, my brother got a husky, Koda who you may see pictured, so that helped me learn what it was like to take care of big dogs. At first, Koda was scary because of his size but I soon learned that he was just a baby who wanted attention🥹. So I did just that. I would go out and play with him, give him toys, feed him, give him treats, and take him for walksies. It was hard because he pulls but I think I got the hand of it lol. Also, one of my cousins has a chihuahua/poodle mix who I’ll see every now and then who loves to do everything. She’s given me the most experience of how different a dog can be but she’s also so chill🥰 Recently, I gained experience with cats. Me and my roomies decided to adopt a cat named Junior who definitely gave us a run for our money. From seeing him when he was 4 months to now all grown up it’s been a ride. He loves to hide, is very mischievous, hates the outside, loves to climb, and picks and chooses when he wants to cuddle. He was definitely crazy but I love him so much. I’ve also volunteered at animal shelters from time to time which have had dogs and cats of all sizes and ages. That has definitely helped me expand my knowledge and gave me a lot of insight on how it is to treat puppies, kitties, sick babies, and the elderly ones🥺. So no matter what your fur baby has to offer, I’ll be there to love on them and provide them with what they need while your away🥰 I’m a college student home for the holidays so I will have a pretty open schedule! I don’t start school for another month so if you are looking for someone to watch your babies as the summer wraps up and last minute trips are taken, I got you!!❤️ All I ask for is a days notice at minimum and I’ll be happy to watch your babies. I will follow all rules presented by the owner. I will treat all pets like they are my very own and make sure they are loved and watched over!
About: Fur babies are family! They need love and patience. Growing up I had a Pekingese for 13 years and then a poodle mix for 12 years. So I learned at an early age the responsibility of caring for the family pet. My first adult pet was a mini lob rabbit which I had for 10 years. It had some medical issues in which required regular care from the local vet. A few years ago I was introduced to Great Danes and immediately fell in love! Zoe, my twelve year old Dane lived her best life. She went to parks, family gatherings, car rides, camping. She passed away last year at the age of 12 1/2. I am not ready for another pet just yet and now that I have some free time I would love to give others the sense of security by playing, loving and caring for their pet. I'm recently retired and have a flexible schedule. With that flexibility I have the opportunity to check on your pets or provide over night care with short notices. I have a fenced yard with lots of room for your pet to lay in the sun, run, stretch and play! For over night stays a crate might be beneficial depending on your pets behavior and comfort. For day to day visits I will respect your property and pet and follow your guidelines to ensure our pet friendly visit is successful.
“Dakota was great with our animals. They are a handful of a group, so it was awesome that Dakota was able to handle them. He was also very good about keeping in contact and keeping me in the loop!”

“Alisha provided exceptional care for our two pups, Astro and Comet, while we were away. We were anxious leaving our fur babies behind, but Alisha made us feel safe and comfortable with regular updates and affectionate care. It's clear that she treats pets as if they were her own. We will absolutely be utilizing Alisha's services again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable and loving pet sitter. A true gem!”
“Emma was super responsive and great with our animals! Our crew is not the easiest to manage, but she has handled everything amazingly. We are super grateful for her and would recommend her to anyone and everyone!”
“Alexandra is INCREDIBLE! She maintained consistent contact, she sent multiple videos and pictures the entire time! Remington got a nice walk, a car ride, a Dutch Bro cup, and lots of individual care aka SHE GOT SPOILED 💗🐾! I couldn’t have dreamed of a better Rover sitter! 10 OUT OF 10 would highly recommend!! We can’t wait to book again!!”
“Hannah gave us peace of mind and kept our pets comfortable in their own space. From what we can tell they were well taken care of as we would normally do and they were loved on! Thank you Hannah we greatly appreciate you! We look forward to using Hannah again in the near future.”
“Azia was great with our Australian Shepherd! She was well cared for and obviously given lots of attention. Azia also communicated with us regularly about how our pup was doing. We’d love to have her watch Millie again!”
“Thank you Gina for taking amazing care of our boys. I appreciated the daily updates and pictures of my kiddos. Taysom and Finn love you and can’t wait to see you again. I highly recommend Gina for any pet sitting needs. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💙💙💙💙💙🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾”

Yvette kept my baby in my home from Wednesday to Sunday. She was a phenomenal sitter for my baby. She arrived on time, kept me informed and was attentive to my baby’s needs. Upon returning home, my house was cleaner than I left it and my fur baby was happy. I will definitely use her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Red Oak on Rover is $47.18 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 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.

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.
