I am so happy Joyann was willing to keep our 2 dogs! She was friendly, communicative, and professional. Even though we met briefly, it felt as though I left my dogs with a close friend; my dogs felt comfortable and our entire home was cared for! I also really appreciated the pictures and updates Joyann provided. I recommend her services to anyone and will happily rebook with her in the future! Thank you, Joyann!

I am pleased with the care my 3 labradoodles & 2 terriers and 2 cats by Alex. They looked happy in the photos she sent us. I went back home for my aunt’s burial. It was a sad occasion but I did not have to worry about my pets. I knew Alex was there taking care of them with her kindness. We will continue to use her service because moving to the valley I have not found someone else to care for them in order to get away for a long weekend. I highly recommend her. She loves animals and it so kind and charming to meet in person.

About: I have grown with dogs, particularly yorkshire terriers, since I was 4. I understand and love dogs, and have cared for family pets! I have taken care of animals of various breeds, age, and sizes. Although most of my experience is with small dogs, owning 6 yorkshire terriers, I have taken care of family pets, such as Blue Heelers, Huskies, and Great Danes. I love any and all dogs with all my heart. It is always an honor caring for ones pets, and it is an honor I will gladly do forever. I am currently a full time college student, (trying) to work a part-time job. Since we are on break, I am free everyday, any time, until late August/early September. I will update this once I (hopefully) get a job :) and if there are any changes. I am always willing to make a meet & greet, to ensure your comfort! Being a dog owner, I understand if you'd like to see if I am a good fit first. I will also keep consistent communication to give you peace of mine while you are away. sending photos and updates on your pets.

She took good care of my kitties while I was gone. They were perfectly fine when I got home had food and water and she sent me a text message and picture of her feeding one of my cats while I was gone. She was great. I loved how she checked in with me often

About: I have a passion for all animals. I am an educator by profession for over 22 years and have cared and owned pets all my life ( dogs ,cats, pigs, cows and horses). I am a semi professional marathon runner and believe not only people but animals benefit from a daily exercise regimen! I am dependable, trustworthy, and loyal. I strongly believe in the welfare of all animals. I will walk or run your dog but due to extreme South Texas summer weather, I will only do it very early morning or evening when its cooler. I will do drop in visits daily as needed. I will send you pictures and videos our your furbabies while you are away. My dedication and compassion for animals set me apart from the rest!

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up on a farm caring for many different types of animals, which taught me responsibility, patience, and how to understand each animal’s unique personality and needs. Over the years, I’ve also trained several of my own dogs, giving me experience with basic obedience, routines, and handling pets with different energy levels and temperaments. In addition, I’ve pet sat for friends and family many times, caring for pets as if they were my own by providing plenty of love, attention, exercise, and dependable care. I’m passionate about creating a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for every pet I meet. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule during the weekdays and full availability on weekends. I currently work full time during the week, but I’m able to leave on breaks and also accommodate early morning visits, walks, feedings, and check-ins. My weekends are completely open, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pets in my care. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so making sure pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for easily fits into my lifestyle. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection. I also pay close attention to their behavior and needs to ensure they are happy and stress-free while their owners are away. I have experience handling animals with different personalities and energy levels, so I’m patient and adaptable with each pet. Whether it’s walks, potty breaks, play sessions, administering basic routines, or simply providing companionship, I care for every pet as if they were my own. I also respect my client’s home by keeping everything clean, organized, and following all instructions carefully.

Madison watched my Rottweiler for a full week. She sent pictures and videos every day of them playing and relaxing. My dog seemed very calm and well taken care of when I got back. The house was very clean. 5 stars.

About: I have taken care of and owned dogs since I was 10. During the ages of 11-14 I fostered several dogs and worked with a rescue. I also know how to work with puppies and kittens since I rescued my 1 year old cat when he was 3 weeks old. I also regularly dog sit a three dog household for a family memeber for the past four years as well as a three cat household. I also have experience with ferrets and hamsters. I am currently a newly graduated student who has the summers off! I am free to help as long as I have a days notice! I will adjust to any schedule you have for your furbaby. I am also comfortable administering meds if shown the schedule and routine you have.

About: I've taken care of both cats and dogs since I was little. I have raised and fostered puppies and kittens, and know how to administer basic aid. My home is pet friendly and safe for all fur-babies. I have full availability to do drop-in visits or boarding during the weekdays or weekends. I am very flexible with times and setting up a meet and greet if needed. I am looking forward to meeting your fur babies! I have a fenced yard, a friendly chihuahua, and 3 cats who love to play with other animals. We have lots of toys, a cat tree, treats, and free feeding- unless you require specific meal times and special diets.

Gabby was the best. We moved with our doggies to a different state/town and had to travel again without them immediately after arriving to our new home. The dogs were happy and safe and adjusted well to their new environment with her help. My apartment was clean and well cared for and she even made sure to unplug any cables as a safety precaution when she left. Totally recommend Gabby 💯 and I'm looking forward to having her care for my pup again!

Best babysitters by far!🤎This was my first time leaving my dog with anyone, mind you, he’s a 140 pound big boy but Brando and his mom took the absolute best care of him! I was so nervous at first but throughout the whole time, they were constantly updating me with pictures of my big baby & constantly keeping me posted with any updates as they were also administering meds. Atlas is a high energized dog that requires a lot of attention & that is what he got on this mini vacation! There is no one else I will be going with moving forward to take care of Atlas! I will 110% return! Thank you for taking care of my big baby🐶

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and even reptiles. Growing up, I had four dogs, a cat who is now almost 16 years old, and even helped care for a baby iguana, so I’m comfortable with pets of all kinds. I recently adopted a kitten who just turned one, and caring for him has been such a rewarding experience. Over the years, family friends have trusted me to pet sit, including feeding, walking, playing with, and giving their pets plenty of love and attention. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m starting law school this fall, and I’m excited to spend the summer doing something I genuinely enjoy- caring for animals and treating every pet like they’re my own. I’m currently working flexible hours, so I have plenty of availability for pet care throughout the week. I am available for drop-in visits, dog walks, and house sitting, and I’ll always make sure your pets receive the attention and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and any special needs. I grew up caring for four dogs, have a 16-year-old cat, raised a baby iguana, and now have a one-year-old rescue kitten, so I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs. I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same respect and care as my own.

FAQs for House Sitting - Amber Land Colonia

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Amber Land Colonia on Rover is $30.53 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 147 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Amber Land Colonia. 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 Amber Land Colonia 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 Amber Land Colonia 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 Amber Land Colonia 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 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.
