“Paula was absolutely brilliant, she has outstanding communication the whole time and you can really tell she cares for your cats as if they were her own! 10/10 experience having Paula look after our two fur babies. I will be using her again in the future! ”
About: I've been around animals for as long as I can remember and have grown up caring for all sorts of pets, including dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, and even tortoises. Looking after animals has always been a natural part of my life, and from a young age I learned how important it is to give pets the love, attention, and care they deserve. I have the most experience with dogs and cats, particularly spaniels, and I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether it's going for long walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing company and cuddles, I always make sure pets feel happy, comfortable, and well looked after. I know how much pets mean to their owners, so I'll treat your pets as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed while you're away, giving you peace of mind that they're in caring and reliable hands. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend 😊 I work in an office in Witney three days a week and from home the other two, which gives me plenty of flexibility to fit around your pet's routine. Whether they need an early morning walk, a lunchtime visit, an afternoon stroll, or an evening walk, I'm happy to work around what suits them best. I know how important it is to keep pets in their usual routine, so I'll always do my best to accommodate their needs and make sure they get plenty of attention and care. I also offer house sitting, so your pet can stay happy and comfortable in their own home while you're away. I'm happy to travel for house-sitting bookings as long as they're within around a 30-minute commute of Witney. I know how important it is for pets to feel comfortable and secure when their owners are away, so I always do my best to keep their routine as normal as possible. Every pet is different, so I'll take the time to get to know their personality, likes and dislikes, and make sure they're getting the care and attention they're used to. Whether that's walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I'll make sure your pet feels happy and loved while you're away. Having grown up around animals all my life, I genuinely enjoy spending time with them and building a bond with each pet I look after. I'll also treat your home with the utmost respect and keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and being well cared for.
About: Growing up with many dogs and being a huge animal lover, this was naturally a job I had to do! I've been a dog walker for years now and have experience with many different types of breeds. Living in a flat I've been unable to have a dog of my own, and after losing my angel of a German Shepherd 2 years ago now this job has been so perfect for me and I enjoy getting to meet all kinds of wonderful pups and giving them the care they deserve 💜 I'm a pet sitter and dog walker full time, so if you have a pup that needs extra attention or cannot be left, then I'm perfect for the job! Please note that I do not have a car and can only get to you via busses, so please make sure there is a bus stop nearby before booking! When looking after pets, their safety is my priority. I like to keep an eye on them and make sure all gates are locked if they enjoy their alone time outside! After experience with my own escape artist husky as a teen, I'm always hyper aware and will never leave front doors or windows open. I also attach all keys to my own to ensure they are safe and cannot be lost! You can trust me to keep your home tidy, water plants and clean up any mess from muddy walks when I'm house sitting! My aim is to always leave your home as tidy and perfect as when I arrive there.
“Claire looked after my dog for an afternoon while I was out and I'm really happy with the care and attention she provided. My dog was relaxed and happy when I returned home. I will definitely use Claire again.”
About: Hello! My name is Amelia and I’m a dog lover who is currently dogless so would love to help you with yours. Having had a dog previously, I have lots of experience with walking, feeding, bathing and most importantly, giving them attention. I work a mixture of in the office and from home but am very flexible. I live in Witney and have a secure garden should they ever need to come to me. My neighbours have a couple of cats. If you have any questions or would like my help, please do not hesitate to get in touch 😊. I work full time but my hours can be flexible. I also work a mixture of at home and in the office, again this is flexible. I have a terraced house with a secure fenced garden. There is a door between the lounge and front door should I have any unexpected visitors.
About: I love all animals and have grown up with cats and dogs at my family home. Since becoming a nurse, shift work means that although I’d love to have a pet, I know I couldn’t provide the right care and support every day for them now. That’s why I am hoping to look after your loved ones (I have experience with this, both humans and animals!) and will be able to care for a pet that I can’t currently support full time myself. I guarantee your pet will be loved, well looked after, and safe in my hands. I do shift work so availability will be variable but I am fortunate enough to write my own rota and so can adjust my schedule to suit others needs. I wouldn’t be able to board or sit overnight for longer than a night or 2 normally but if it needed to be longer this could be arranged with a good amount of pre-planning. I have a fenced house with easy access to fields and dog walking routes at the back door and I live in a quiet village away from busy roads. I also have a fairly large vehicle for any pick up or drop off needs. I have no current pets or children in my own household and so can offer a relaxed and quiet environment. Despite having my own pets in the past I am respectful of the training and behaviours you instil with your own pets and will do my utmost to follow this.
“Lily did a very good job, I'm so grateful! She took good care of my cat, she was very communicative and I really appreciated all the work as she went beyond. I'd definitely book with her again!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life - growing up in the countryside with dogs, cats, chickens, horses, tortoises, and even snakes! My experience also includes working as a nanny, where I cared for the family’s horses, dogs, and cats, from daily mucking out to riding and routine care. Compassionate, patient, and genuinely animal-obsessed, I always put the wellbeing and comfort of your pets first. As a pet parent myself to a working cocker spaniel and a cat, I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust. With me, your pets will be cared for just as lovingly as my own. I work full time, but work from home three days a week, so can be flexible. I have my own car, so I can come to you. I have a fenced garden, which is secure. I live in a cottage with my dog and cat. I am extremely tidy and will always clean up after myself.
“Jay a pris grand soin de notre chat pendant nos vacances & une semaine caniculaire. Un grand merci à lui. Il a été très serviable, agréable et respectueux, je le recommande !”
“Our 2 dogs liked Cinthya immediately, even our anxious boy. She took the time to do a meet and greet before the pop-in visit (when we were out for a bit too long to leave the boys on their own the whole time). From our point of view Cinthya was friendly, trustworthy and we had no worries that everything wouldn't go to plan. And we had a little video of her visit, which was great. We'll definitely ask Cinthya to look after our doggos again 👍”
About: I have had dogs in my life for over 30 years. I am experienced in their welfare as well as being a massive animal lover. I currently work 3/4 days a week and am self-employed. This means that I have plenty of time to look after your precious furry friends. I'm a hairdresser and so if your pet would be happy and settled in my salon, I could easily take him/her to work with me too. If not, I would schedule my work so that I can pop home regularly. I am a 5 minute walk away. I have a secure garden and safe home. I have lots of toys too. I'm good at following any instructions which work for your pets.
About: My experience includes house sitting walking and pop ins for my neighbours German shepherd. I also have owned and walked my family dog for years and have two cats I currently have my own business singing in care homes. Usually I have 1-2 care homes a day that are an hour each and stay in the Witney area so this makes popping in and walking easy and means I have lots of free time! Most of my evenings are at band practice or performances so this is why I don’t do stay ins I have experience walking bigger bread dogs like German shepherds and labradors (also smaller dogs) and also looking after them in the home! I also have experience caring for elderly and young cats with giving medication and love! I feed walk and entertain my Labrador at home and I have done the same staying for 2 weeks for my neighbours dog

This was the second time that Deniz looked after my cats and once again I cannot thank her enough as I came home to two very happy cats who had clearly been looked after very well. As well as being hugely reliable and attentive to all of my cats' needs Deniz is such a lovely person. I would highly recommend her and I will definitely use her again.
Charlotte looked after our cat for a week and we were delighted with the care she provided. Our cat was given lots of time and attention during her visits and we appreciated the regular photos and updates which made us feel very reassured. We were able to enjoy our holiday knowing that our cat was being looked after so well. Charlotte will be first on our list for future cat care and we highly recommend her!
We can happily go on holiday knowing our cat’s in safe hands with Utku. On his very first visit to our home, he had such a natural way with animals that it felt like they’d known each other for ages. Our cat was well fed, well cared for, and never short of attention. If you’re looking for someone you can fully trust with your furry mate, Utku’s the one.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in West Oxfordshire on Rover is £14.95 per Visit (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
Many sitters respond to requests in under an hour. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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 trays. 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 socialisation 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poo breaks occured. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available for dedicated customer support by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalised, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a key safe. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalised codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in a flat, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or lift etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover must pass an identity verification before they can list their services. An identity verification confirms that the sitter is who they say they are based on their documents.
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 our Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes dedicated customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement programme 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.
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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
