“Julia did a great job! We were away for 5 days, and our dogs were happy and well fed when we returned. The house was cleaned and she checked in with pictures to let us know that everything was going well.”
“Dwayne took care of my crew while attending to family business in another state. It was clear from the start what a great animal lover he is as my big dog immediately wanted to be besties. He got my little guys to warm up to him and sent lots of pics of them smiling. He was attentive in every way. He’s a terrific human and clearly takes great pride in his services. I would highly recommend him and will definitely be contacting Dwayne again for future needs. Do not hesitate to book with Dwayne!”
“10/10 no notes for Sunnie. Dogs are happy and house is immaculate. Sunnie communicates everything that’s going on with the dogs—good and bad. She’s totally transparent which I really appreciate! Already booked her for my next trip! Thank you Sunnie!!”
“Tyler took wonderful care of Dusty and Daisy. They took to him immediately and it was obvious that he gave them a lot of attention. He is punctual, polite, and a very caring young man. We will be rebooking with him again in the near future. Thanks again Tyler.”
About: I have been pet sitting for friends and family members since i was old enough to be left alone! I've watched many dogs from shih tzus to pointers, labs, cane corsos and more! i hope you'll consider me as your next pet sitter! Kind regards I am starting a horse trainer apprentice job soon so I'll have plenty of extra time for caring for your pets and making sure they stay happy and stimulated! When at your home i will follow any given rules, feeding times, walking times and routes, i can send hourly updates and photos when i am there so you know your pets are safe and happy!
“Kat was amazing! I have never left my pup alone and was scared to go away for the holidays, but I figured having a trusted person and company come to our house would be better than boarding him somewhere else.... and it was! She left our house perfectly clean and quickly replied everytime I wanted to see a picture or video of my baby! She even left a lil dog bone and thank you card. I couldnt be more pleased with my choice of Kat and Rover.com!!!! I will reccommend anyone in the East Nashville area to use Kat!”
“Emily did a great job with my puppy while I was away. He is a lot of work but she was able to make the best of it! I felt so bad she had to put up with a chirping smoke alarm at my house while I was gone, but she survived that as well!”
About: I’ve cared for both dogs and cats for many years and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and routine. I have experience with feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I treat every pet with care and respect like they’re my own. I’m flexible with my schedule and able to make time throughout the week for pet care, walks, check-ins, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I’m reliable about routines and communication, and I always try to make pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment for every pet. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, behavior, and safety during walks or visits. I respect clients’ homes, keep things clean, and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, supervision, and care so owners can feel confident while they’re away.
“Kiera was absolutely amazing. This was our first time using a Rover and first time having someone outside of family stay in our house while we were away. I simply could not be happier with how EVERYTHING played out. She was extremely attentive to Sammy and sent us daily updates with pictures. At one point, Sammy had some tummy troubles and Kiera went above and beyond to help Sammy feel better and ensure everything was cleaned up. When we arrived home, the house was in perfect condition, tidied up, with really no trace of Kiera ever being there, other than a happy Sammy when we came home. She is wonderful. 10 out of 10.”
“Christi was amazing! She loved on our golden so well and was extremely communicative, giving us daily updates along with pictures. We will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!”
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my entire life. I live with 2 cats now whom I care for deeply. I love caring for others, so dog sitting is a good way to show my affection! I am working part time at another job, so I have plenty of time to care for a little friend until the school year starts. I care for pets by following the routine of the owner. Making sure the animal feels safe and within its routine when it’s owner is not home.
“This was our time having Amie stay with our dog, Hank! We did a meet and greet first we could meet and Hank could get used to her. Amie did amazing with our little old man Hank! She really put our mind at ease with updates and lots of pictures. You can tell that she really cares about your pets wellbeing. She left our home exactly how we left it. We have a second booking set up with Amie and we plan to use her in future for our fur baby!”
About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was 11 years old. My family had always had dogs and my siblings and I took care of them because my parents thought it taught responsibility. I have also dog sat several times for my aunt, friend’s parents, and boyfriend’s family. I am a huge dog person I have a chocolate lab of my own thats 7 months!! I have watched from a Cane Corso to a little french bulldog! I work 8- 4:30 so I could feed and let them out in the morning. Also on lunch break and also when I get home. When I get home I usually play with them or take them in walk then feed them dinner! Fridays I have off so it gives me all day to play and spend time with them! I feed and let out to the bathroom 2 or 3 times a day depending or more. I walk my dogs usually 2 times a week and at least play with them everyday and outside 2 times a week. I will work with my dogs and try and train.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 570 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Alamo. 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 Alamo 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 Alamo 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 Alamo 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 Alamo. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
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.
