“Rochelle was great! I had to leave out of town last minute and needed someone to let my pups out to the bathroom in the middle of the day. The dogs seemed to really like her. I'm grateful for the pictures she sent of them. :) Would definitely recommend and would use her again.”
About: I currently have two beautiful cats in my hometown, Houston, and convinced my roommates to adopt a cat in Boston! I’ve also taken care of my neighbor’s dog during their vacation stays. I am interested in exploring more of Houston as an avid walker, and it would not hurt to have a friend join me! I currently work freelance so my days are flexible for pet care. I understand that how I care for my pet will be different from how my client cares for theirs. I will follow the client’s preferences thoroughly.
“Nupur was very nice and attentive to our kitties' needs. She accommodated all of our requests and made sure to send daily pictures and updates. We will be sure to book her again, if available, for our next travels. We were thankful to have her watch over our fluffy beasts, as they get quite lonely when we leave town.”
“I have an elderly cat and a rescue dog that is scared of a lot of things and its never easy to leave them. Cristina made me feel so comfortable knowing they were in great hands! She is kind, communicative, responsible, and trustworthy! I really knew my babies were well taken care of.”
“Vanessa is a gem! Thank you for the sweet photos and updates. Our Tux was in great hands! She goes above and beyond with her care and truly has fun doing it. Next time we are out of town, Tux will be happy to see his new friend again. Thank you, Vanessa!”
“Jill always goes above and beyond to take great care of our babies while we are away, is reliable, great at communicating if she has any questions, and my pets feel comfortable with her and enjoying being in the comfort of their own home when we have to be away!”
About: I have had cats and dogs my whole life and helped to take care of them. I have also worked for a breeder and rescue facility for over two years where I gained professional experience caring for dogs of all sizes. I have sat with Rover for multiple years now and have loved every second of it! I love all animals and am excited to continue caring for them in my community. I do work full time M-F but with a flexible schedule. I usually start work later in the morning and get home later in the day. Depending on location, I may be able to drop in during breaks in the work day as well. With this schedule, I unfortunately would not be a good fit for pets who need extra care and time together unless it is during the weekends. I am happy to work with clients and their pets’ specific needs. I am comfortable staying in the home, taking walks, giving medicine, and grooming needs.
“We got daily updates and no issues. Would book again. Communication was overall good and sitter was easy to work with! None of our pets have any complicated medical needs so that was all good.”
About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always prioritize their happiness, routine, and well-being. You can count on clear communication, regular updates, and dependable care while you’re away. My schedule allows me to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, as well as overnight stays when needed. Whether your pet needs regular walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply companionship, I have the flexibility to ensure they receive the care and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving, and secure environment where pets can feel at home while you’re away. I have a large, fully fenced-in yard that gives dogs plenty of space to run, play, and exercise safely. I always follow owners’ instructions closely, maintain routines, and provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. Every pet is treated like a member of the family and receives the attention, care, and affection they deserve.
About: I provide dependable, attentive care and understand that every pet has its own personality and routine. I have experience caring for a senior dog over many years, making sure they stayed comfortable, active at their own pace, and well cared for while their owner was away. My goal is for both pets and owners to feel at ease. As an elementary school librarian, I have evenings, weekends, holidays, and summers available, allowing me to provide reliable, consistent pet care for busy pet owners. I follow each pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I provide fresh food and water, exercise, playtime, affection, potty breaks, and any requested medications. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for while they’re away.
“Ishamar watched our cats for three days. She went above and beyond with pictures and videos. Our cats, who are normally a little shy with strangers, immediately were interested in attention from Ishamar! We felt very comforted during our travels knowing the cats really seemed to instantly love our sitter. Thank you Ishamar for taking care of our fur babies.”
About: I'm an avid dog lover who has grown up with dogs since I was a teenager and has never been without them in my life since! I currently help dog walk and sit for a few clients but want to extend this to more in need. Now that my daughter is heading to college I have more time to love on dogs and help others while helping my heart smile from the visits. My schedule allows me to pop in at various times of the day as needed. I'll be having even more time as my daughter transitions to college. I have a patio for the dogs to enjoy but also live close to Memorial park and Levy park so I can take them easily to dog parks to play.
About: I’m a very caring, gentle and trustworthy person. Im experienced with providing care to reactive, aggressive, old and young pets. I was trained on a dog ranch for a year and it was the best experience of my life learning their different behaviors and how to properly care for them. I have a really flexible schedule which means I can stop working to stay at home and provide full service to your pets or make a lot of drop ins on them. I have a fenced yard and a dog park across the street from my house. There’s also a walking trail right around the corner too which is perfect for a lot of outside activities.
About: I am an animal lover of all shapes and sizes. I am a mom of 2 bully breeds and do not discriminate! I would love to meet and care for all fur babies. I am comfortable walking, feeding, and anything else you may need! I have also had multiple senior family dogs and puppies throughout my 25 years. I am a recent graduate studying for my licensing exam and would love an excuse to meet and be outside with animals. My schedule is pretty flexible currently. Your home, your rules. It will be like I was never there. My goal is to care for your pets just as you would. Specific goals for walks or home will be upheld!
About: I have A LOT of patience and absolutely love animals! I will confidently give your furry friend all of the love and attention it needs! I have a very flexible job, so being able to go back and forth while also hanging out with your pets, is very manageable and great with my schedule! I have cared for many different animals including gerbils, hamsters, snakes, lizards, birds, fish, and ferrets, so I am very open to any and all animals! My roommate has both a dog and a cat which I volunteer to take care of when needed. I take the dog out for several walks throughout the day and feed and cuddle both of them!
About: Hi, I’m Isiah! I recently moved to Bellaire and am excited to care for your furry family members. My pet care journey started back in high school, running a neighborhood dog-sitting and walking hustle. Through those years, I learned how to handle different dog temperaments, manage dietary and medication routines, and keep pups safe and happy. Why trust me with your pets? By day, my professional background is in finance and client services. This means I am exceptionally detail-oriented, highly organized, and deeply responsible. I know how much trust it takes to welcome someone into your home, and I treat your space and your pets with the utmost respect. When your pets are with me, you can expect: Strict adherence to your exact feeding and care routines. Patient, high-empathy care tailored to your pet's personality. Frequent photo updates so you never have to worry. I’m active, reliable, and can't wait to give your pets the love and attention they deserve. Let's schedule a quick meet-and-greet! I currently work a flexible schedule, which means I have excellent availability throughout the week. I am highly flexible and can easily accommodate midday walks, routine feedings, or overnight house-sitting stays. Your pet's schedule will always be my top priority. In the Client's Home: > I treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping it secure, neat, and exactly as you left it. When staying overnight or dropping in, my priority is keeping your pet's routine completely normal. I follow your specific instructions for feeding, medication, and exercise schedules, making sure they get plenty of play, companionship, and attention so they never feel lonely. In My Home: > Because I am currently renting an apartment, I focus entirely on caring for your pets in your home where they are most comfortable, or providing outdoor neighborhood walks and park visits to keep them active and happy. No matter the service, I keep you connected with frequent, real-time photo and text updates so you always have total peace of mind!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Bellaire
Ms. Heather was such a delight! She came through in a crunch time of mine. She’s super sweet and very responsive. She took GREAT care of my fur baby. My little Amirah loves her! She was so supportive and detail oriented when it came to my dog. I definitely recommend her and I will be using her in the future!
Alejandra was amazing! She was prompt with responses and was able to drop in on my babies during the holiday weekend last minute! She was accommodating to my schedule and very detailed with all her reporting! I’ll be using her over and over again! 10/10 do recommend! My babies love her!
Nandini always goes above and beyond to help us take care of our Aussie puppy whether she’s having an energetic day full of play or needs some extra TLC. I would recommend Nandini to anyone looking for a helpful, kind, communicative Rover to take care of their furry family member!
Emma took such great care of Finny while I was in Miami! It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands while I was away. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly cared about making sure he was happy and comfortable. I could tell Finny was well loved and cared for when I got back. I would absolutely trust Emma to watch him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful dog sitter!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Bellaire stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Bellaire 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!
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Bellaire with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
