“Leeann was wonderful! We got lots of picture updates, the house was in great shape, and she went the extra mile to clean sheets and blankets before leaving. We’d have her join us again in a heartbeat!”

“Avery does work a full time job so keep that in mind if you have a strict feeding schedule for your dogs which was a bit of a miscommunication on our part. She did give us updates as soon as she got home and cared well for our dogs. Overall, Avery did a good job watching them.”

“The only downside to Raelynn is your animals might love her more than they do you after a while… other than that she’s amazing. Always attentive, caring and detail oriented!”
“Thank you Casey for your awesomeness. Yogi loved your companionship. We both truly appreciate your kindness, happiness, helpfulness and awesomeness. Yogi loves his new friend Casey. We both look forward to seeing you again. Thank you for your excellent attention and friendship. 😊⭐️🤗⭐️🐕”

“Jaime did a great job taking care of my 2 cats and 2 dogs while I was on a work trip. He was communicative and competent, listened to my pets needs and took flawless care of them. I didn't have to worry at all as I received regular photo updates. Thank you, Jaime!”

“I wish I had met Jenn a long time ago!! She is very attentive, communicates well and really cares for your pup! She is the best!!! She is definitely someone I would recommend and would keep hiring, always. Thank you Jenn!!”

“Heather took great care of my four babies during the holidays! She sent in frequent updates, including photos, and followed all of the instructions provided. I would definitely book again!”

About: I love all dogs and treat every pup like part of my own family. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including administering medications and handling special dietary needs. I also provide plenty of exercise and playtime to keep your dog happy and healthy. Plus, I’m committed to clear communication with you by sending you pictures of your furry child, so you always know how your dog is doing. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities! Pet care is a meaningful part of my daily and weekly routine. I dedicate focused time each day to ensure pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they need to stay happy and healthy. Since I don’t work during the summer, I’m especially available to provide flexible and consistent care, making it easier for you to travel and enjoy your time away knowing your pets are in good hands. Whether it’s daily visits or longer stays, I’m committed to fitting pet care seamlessly into my schedule to meet your needs. When I care for pets in your home, I treat your space and your furry family members with the utmost respect. I always make sure that I leave a space just like I found it. I follow your specific instructions closely, whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, or playtime routines. I make sure to keep their environment clean and comfortable, including tidying up after meals and cleaning litter boxes or kennels as needed. I spend quality time with your pets to provide companionship, exercise, and affection, helping them feel safe and happy while you’re away. I also keep you updated regularly so you can have peace of mind.
“Lauren is truly AMAZING. From the moment she arrived, she was so sweet, calm, and patient with our dogs. She took the time to get to know them, understood their little quirks, and made sure they felt comfortable and cared for the entire time. She took them out regularly, kept us updated, and treated them with so much kindness that it felt like they were her own. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We will absolutely be using her again in the future.”

“Trustworthy, Caring, and Valuable. I would book Val again in a heartbeat. Her attention to detail and true love of animals was immediately recognizable when I initially met her prior to booking. I was apprehensive about having a stranger stay in my house for 5 nights, as we have always had family or friends to watch our animals and house. Now we live away from friends and family and were going to visit them. Val's profile seemed like a good fit to my geriatric pets she would be watching. 2 dogs and 2 cats. She met with the pets, my husband, and I before I booked her. She was exactly what I was looking for in a pet/house sitter. After booking, she contacted me about a week before her stay and came back to the house to re-aquaint herself to the pets and our home. During our time away she sent many pictures of our animals and I knew she was taking great care of them. She went above and beyond brushing our very sheddy lab mix and made sure she got our "elusive" cat's affection. I almost hate leaving this review, because I always want her to be available for us. But she deserves as much business as possible because she is made for this job.”

About: I have many pets of my own. This includes three dogs, two mice, gecko, and a bunch of fish!! I love taking care of animals and making sure they are as happy as they can be even when their owner isn't home! ❤️ During the summer I will be pretty free! However, during the school year I always make sure to change my schedule to accommodate the needs of your pets I take care of pets the way their owner wants me to! I will also play and give them lots of love. Feeding on time is important. I always make sure they have water so they are hydrated!

“Jen was great with our two dogs and 1 cat! One dog requires a complicated regimen of medication, supplements, and eye drops, and Jen handled it all perfectly. She was communicative with pictures, videos and notes, and very responsive.”

About: I've been taking care of animals in some capacity my entire life. I'm going to study zoology to continue this pattern, as I want to work with animals in a more professional setting and learn more about them. Animals genuinely are my purpose in life, meaning you can trust me to be caring and loving with your pets. My only true commitment is classes I'm taking at a community college. I only am taking a couple classes a semester though, meaning I have a lot of free time. I do also volunteer at an animal shelter, but I am able to choose my schedule for that, meaning it shouldn't be an issue. I love taking photos of pets and will make sure to send them to you, so you can see they're doing well. I love to play with dogs, or cuddle if they're comfortable with me. If your dog knows any tricks, I'm happy to take them through what they know to help keep their mind engaged and calm them down.

Heather is the best! This is the 2nd time she has watched our dog at our home and we wont use anyone else. She is a great communicator and sends pictures often. She takes incredible care of our girl like she is her own, and follows all our instructions. She left our home in immaculate shape, which was so great to come home to after a long travel day. Thank you Heather!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Aledo
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Aledo on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,792 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Aledo. 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 Aledo 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 Aledo 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 Aledo 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.
