About: Hi, I'm Paula and I live in Witney with my husband and my lovely fur baby, Bella. I work from home so I am lucky to enjoy Bella's company most of the day (and cuddling her when she lets me!) I have had a cat since childhood and throughout most of my adult life (I am in my 50's now) and my current and three previous cats were all rescues. I work in administration and am very organised, dedicated and reliable. I can look after you cat(s) before work, during the day, after work and weekends. I wear a 'uniform ' so i do not smell of my cat when I look after yours. I can also offer dog walking service in the evenings and weekends I work from home so can do short cat sitting visits in the morning before work, longer during the day and an hour or so in the evening (or as required) and all weekend. I can offer dog walking services in the evenings and weekends too. I will always fuss your cat first, then do feeding followed by refreshing water bowls and litter trays. I will play with your cat and cuddle them as much or as little as they want.

I cannot recommend Gemma highly enough. We felt that both our elderly dog and the house were in sensible, reliable hands. She gave us regular updates and left the house absolutely spotless - a wonderful service and a credit to Rover.

Claire was absolutely wonderful! She looked after our two boisterous spaniels for a whole day, and was extremely reliable with timings and keeping us updated on how things were going! Claire also met the dogs before dog sitting at our house, and it was lovely to see how they were immediately calm around her. I would recommend Claire in a heartbeat!

Would highly recommend Jane, she did a brilliant job looking after our house and dog , Bea for five weeks . We received regular updates and pictures which made it very clear Bea was enjoying lots of lovely walks and very happy spending time with Jane at home. The house was beautifully clean and tidy when we got back and Bea looked amazing. We have already booked her for our next holiday.

Chelsea loved Kaye from the moment they met. Kaye looked after Chelsea so well and sent me daily updates, videos and photos of their daily walks/adventures and all the other routine stuff. We came back to a very happy and content little girl! Kaye also looked after our home beautifully and left it immaculate. I can fully recommend her and will definitely be using her services again.

Daniel did a great job looking after our house, our two dogs, and our two parrots while we were away, and we couldn’t have been happier. He kept us updated, took great care of everything, and we came home to happy pets and a spotless house. We’d happily have Daniel house sit for us again and would definitely recommend him.

I really can’t recommend Holly enough. She looked after my pup and my older dog whilst we were away on holiday. She took care of everything. And I don’t say that lightly. She had only previously met the girls briefly, but was a natural with them. Holly checked in with me daily, updating me with how the girls were getting on. She sent me photos of them on their walks, in the garden and snuggled up with her 🥰. This was so reassuring and I felt like I could relax and enjoy my holiday knowing they were in such good hands. She also took care of our home. She left the house immaculate and even double checked when bin day was, so we didn’t miss out. Holly was fantastic and we hope she’s be happy to help us again in the future 🙂 highly recommend. Thanks Holly.

Cinthya has been wonderful! We have three dogs, one of which is particularly challenging, but Cinthya has real 'dog sense' and gave ours the space and time needed to let her defences down. You can tell she understands dogs and connects with them, with the end result that we and the dogs were very very happy! Would highly recommend!

About: I have always loved dogs and had my own dogs. I unfortunately live by myself now so I haven’t got a dog now. I miss having that friend, so I want to help out as much as I can. I am a teacher so daytimes may be trickier but I’ll do my best. I am more available at weekends. I can be free most nights too. I won’t tend to have dogs at my house as I have no garden. But if you are happy, I absolutely can have them. I own my house. Some people may not want me to do this, but if you allow it, I can for sure. I will look after your dog with all the love and care I would for my own. And I am very respectful of homes. I used to be a nanny and still occasionally do that, so I understand looking after the home as well.

About: Hi, I’m Kate! ❤️🐾 I’m a huge dog lover based in Witney and I genuinely love having dogs around me. I know leaving your dog with someone new can feel a little stressful, so I want them to feel as comfortable and at home with me as possible. I’m happy to follow their usual routine, including feeding, walks, sleeping arrangements and medication if needed. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or would rather spend the day snoozing on the sofa and having cuddles, I’ll make sure their stay suits them. I also love sending photos and little updates throughout their stay, so you can see what they’re up to and know they’re happy and settled. My schedule is flexible and I have plenty of time to spend with the dogs in my care. I make sure they get regular walks, playtime, toilet breaks and lots of attention throughout the day. I always try to stick to your dog’s usual routine as much as possible, so they can feel comfortable and settled while staying with me. Your dog will be treated like part of the family while staying with me. I keep things calm and relaxed. I can give them plenty of attention and make sure they feel comfortable and settled. I’m happy to stick to their usual feeding, walking and sleeping routine, give medication if needed, and follow any instructions you leave with me. Dogs are welcome on the sofa and bed if that’s what they’re used to at home. Although I live in a ground floor flat, I have my own secure, enclosed patio with direct access to a large grassy area, so dogs can easily get outside for regular toilet breaks and some fresh air.

Andrew was absolutely fantastic. It was clear from the moment we met him that he does this because he genuinely loves dogs, and that gave us real confidence leaving ours in his care. He took care of everything and kept us completely at ease, knowing our dogs were with someone who truly understands and cares about them. He was also super professional, reliable, and very easy to communicate and organize with throughout the whole process. We wouldn't hesitate to book Andrew again and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy dog sitter.

We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Holly to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter, and we’ll definitely be using her again. Thank you, Holly!

FAQs for House Sitting - West Oxfordshire

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in West Oxfordshire on Rover is £41.4 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 1,206 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across West Oxfordshire. Enter your postcode 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:

  • Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Rubbish & recycling: Taking bins out on scheduled rubbish collection days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best time to agree on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a 'home cheat sheet' that includes your preferred West Oxfordshire walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

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.

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 .

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 West Oxfordshire choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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.

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.

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 vet. 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 authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation 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.
