About: I have dog sat for many families, and have a lot of experience with dogs. I have grown up with dogs my whole life and currently have three. I’m a current student at the University of Oklahoma, so besides classes I will be able to tend to your fur babies whenever needed! In my clients home I will make their fur babies feel safe and comfortable. I will give many updates to my client on their dogs!
About: I've had dogs for as long as I can remember! From dogs as little as 10lb to as large as 150lbs! Love any and all doggies. I currently work full time so I'm able to walk your dogs in the evening or early morning before work, and I can also house sit on the weekends! I would love to meet your dog first and see the temperament. After that, if all goes well, I'll gladly watch or walk the dog for you.
“It was our first time leaving Doc with someone he didn't know, and for several days at a time. Kimmie was great and made us feel so much better about all of it! Not to mention Doc fell in love with her! Thanks, Kimmie - we look forward to booking again soon!”
“I was so nervous about having someone board in my home but Kyle made the whole experience easy. He sent me pictures to update me on how my dog was doing and my dog looked so happy. He stuck to my dogs routine and handled his high energy great.”
“Liz did a great job watching our dogs and house while we were out of town for a week. We loved the daily updates and appreciated her flexibility when our flight home got delayed. We look forward to using her services again in the future.”
About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life. Never stepped foot into my home without a very excited welcoming committee (that’s what we call our 4 dogs when they greet us at the door). That is until I came to college and no longer get any happy welcoming committees at the door. I miss it. So I am just hoping to help out others while also helping my self :). With that, I have experienced it all. Medications, cleaning, clipping nails, pills, and expert tosser for dogs that love fetch. My family and I have always gravitated towards big dogs but I love all shapes and sizes. I am a very active person and love to go on walks all of the time, so why not have the opportunity to bring a furry friend along! At home I am gentle and kind to my pets. Give them plenty of loving, pets, and a firm believer in walks. Long walks. Dogs make me happy, so I want to make them happy.
About: I have private pet sit since I can remember. I have experience with large and small dogs. I have experience in elderly dogs also. Lastly I love ALL breeds! I only work 2 days a week about 3 hour days, so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets. I look forward to helping you with your animals. When I care for your pet in your home, I will respect your home. I will provide a loving environment for your pets. I will protect and care for your pet like it is my own.
“Addie was exceptional in every way. She asked questions, followed my instructions and constantly kept me updated on Bella. I would highly recommend her and will definitely use her again!”
About: I got my first dog in elementary school, and ever since then I’ve never had less than two pets at a time. I often bring home dogs I find on the street and take care of them until I can find them a suitable home. I have experience pet sitting dogs of both small and large sizes, and am willing to work my schedule around your pups typical habits. I currently have a very flexible part-time schedule and am also currently enrolled in online college courses. This gives me the ability to structure my day around your pet’s needs. I volunteer with animals on Tuesday evenings, but if those times collide we can work it out. :) I do my best to over communicate if I notice anything going on with your pet that might be cause for concern. If there is no backyard that’s okay, I am more than happy to walk pets multiples times a day. If I am staying overnight I usually do a thorough cleaning of the floors before I leave. I am willing to water plants, take out trash cans, scoop litter, etc.
“Reed did a great job taking care of our older German Shepherds and house sitting for us. He took the dogs on walks and played fetch with them. I loved the pics he sent. Will definitely use him again!”
“Brianna helped us with our sweet girl who has gone through heartworm treatments and has to stay calm and quiet for a few weeks. I was able to work knowing that my baby would be taken care of by Brianna. She loves dogs and knows what to do for those dogs that need special attention. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my baby and her brother.”
“Kaci was great and we look forward to having her dog/house again many times! She sent updates and left the house spotless, which is always a nice thing coming back from vacation. Our dog loved her and was super happy staying with her!”
“Austin did a great job taking care of our two dogs and home while we were on vacation! He sent photos and communicated along the way and our house was tidy when we got back. This was our first time using a dog sitter and we would use Austin again!”
“Kelly was great. She was flexible and communicative. When we got back home, we could tell that Sam felt cared for and attended to in our absence which is always a relief after being away, even for a short time.”
“We loved SJ and would definitely book again! SJ was extremely professional and took great care of our dog. He has anxiety so we appreciated that SJ stayed with him the whole time. She gave us updates each day and sent MANY pictures which we loved. SJ was reliable and we enjoyed the peace of mind that comes with such a professional sitter. We came home to a happy, healthy dog and a well cared for house. It was an excellent experience!”
About: I worked as a professional dog trainer for many years. I have worked with all types of dogs. I also train and have experience with horses. My animals are my family and I will treat yours the same way. Feel confident leaving your fur-baby in the comfort of my home while you are away and trust that all of their needs will be meet. My animals live in my home with me and yours will be loved and cared for like my own. I am great at communicating and will accomadate special needs or requirements for your animals. I want to make your experience as stress free and positive as possible. I am looking forward to meeting you and helping you with all your pet care needs!

FAQs for House Sitting - Skiatook
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 457 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Skiatook. 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 Skiatook 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 Skiatook 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 Skiatook 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Skiatook. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
