“Olivia was awesome! She dropped in to check on my cat 3 times/week while I was abroad. There was a literal hurricane and prolonged power outage which also caused difficulties in her gaining access to my apt, and Olivia was really concerned and proactive in trying to find a solution. I'll definitely be hiring her again!”

“Rochelle was so kind, accommodating, and took great care of our pup during our trip. She was very communicative, sent photos, and was also timely in caring for him which I really appreciated. I highly recommend her for anyone searching for a reliable caretaker!”

“Raven was a wonderful sitter! She arrived on time, communicated well throughout the stays, and took great care of my dog. She also left thorough notes & pictures for me to review while I was gone! Trust her, your animals will be in good hands. I plan to rebook with her for future care!”

About: I currently have two beautiful cats in my hometown, Houston, and convinced my college roommates to adopt a cat in Boston! I find that you grow from experience, so each booking has only brought me more insight on how to be a more caring, attentive sitter. 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.
“Catherine was wonderful! She is sweet, always prompt in responding to messages, and took great care of our kitty Garbanzo. She was also accomodating with our weird key situation and we would definitely book her again!”


About: I have fostered dogs and cared for both dogs and cats my entire life, and I genuinely enjoy helping people who need support with their furry sidekick while they are away. I am a pet parent myself to an anxious rescue puppy, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your animal. I have experience with reactive dogs, anxious dogs, and all kinds of rescue backgrounds. I have also had cats, so I am familiar with every temperament and never take anything personally. I previously cared for a senior dog who needed daily medication, so I am comfortable and experienced giving medications to both cats and dogs. I have fostered puppies and adult dogs as well, so I can easily handle any medication or special requests. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask. I’m currently a doctoral student and do most work from home so my schedule is very open and flexible. I am available everyday of the week and open schedule for timing. I do not have a backyard, however I live next to Midtown park that has a dog park that very few dogs attend and so your furry friend will have many opportunities to run around! I do have one anxious dog that will be kept away from your pet if needed. However, your pet will have access to the 2 bedroom apartment and their own room to sleep in.

About: I was born and raised in Houston and have been sitting for family, friends, and other clients since I was a teenager. I’m used to working with a broad spectrum of dog breeds + dogs of all ages (not a stranger to doggy diapers and suspenders). I grew up with a pug named Chestnut who passed last year and he had such a big personality and spirit, and was a big part of my childhood. He is always in my heart and when I sit for other dogs, I give them all my love and care for them to the best of my ability 🤍! I pay close attention to a dog’s behavior and their body language signaling. It is important for their health, comfort, and safety. I graduated from Texas A&M last year and I am working and saving for continuing my education. I work Monday-Thursday 9-5, but outside of that I have plenty of time for your dogs needs and play time :) My days usually begin at 7:00 am. In my free time I do yoga/meditate, play guitar, and make art! I need to be briefed on a dog’s routine and usual behaviors before pet sitting at a client’s house. I like to have initial meetings while the owner is present to establish a relationship with the dog in a comfortable environment for them. During drop-ins and house sitting days, I am only responsible for the dog and no other individuals in the house. I am not a babysitter for clients that have not explicitly reached out to me for that reason. I am also not responsible for 24-hour surveillance of your property during house-sitting as I would be living there as if it was my house. I am always respectful of my surroundings and leave the house like I found it.
About: With 13+ years of experience caring for everything from playful puppies to senior dogs, I provide loving, reliable care—including medication administration, plenty of walks, and treating every pet like family. I’m flexible too, I happy to stay at your place or mine, whatever keeps your pet most comfortable and at ease I do work full-time,non remote, as soon as they get home, it’s all about your pets and on the weekends where I can be home full time. I create a calm, safe, and loving environment wherever I’m caring for your pet. In your home, I stick closely to their normal routine; feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any medications, so they feel comfortable and secure in their own space. In my home, I provide a clean, cozy, and supervised setting with plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I’m an avid walker, so dogs get lots of activity, and I always tailor care to their age and needs. Whether it’s energetic puppies to gentle senior care. No matter the location, your pet is treated like family and gets consistent, attentive care.
“Briana & Sam were amazing! They were so kind and the communication was great. Our cat Kevin did great under their care :) They went above and beyond to help us with a few things in our home as well while we were out. Looking forward to using them again in the future!”

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.
“Naomi is absolutely amazing with our pets. She sent daily updates, photos, and videos. Are dogs warmed up to her immediately and they did not want her to leave! She has become our new found part of the family and will be booked every time we go on the trip.”

“Bryan was delightful to work with and is extremely talented and trustworthy when it came to my pitbull mastiff. He always kept me in the loop with pictures and nice messages with each trip to my house. If I ever need to get out of town again, he will be the guy I’d call first. I recommend him to anyone who wants a hassle free pet sitter.”

“Kaylalea was thorough in her communication, my cats seemed happy with her company, and my home was in the same condition as i left it. would definitely book again!”

About: I have taken care of many breeds of dogs throughout Highschool. I also was in FFA and raised a steer and I love all kinds of animals. I am available on the weekends and during the week. I will be going back to school in mid August so that is the last week I can work. I always respect the owners home and treat their dogs with the upmost respect. I like playing catch with the dogs and enjoy taking them on walks
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs my whole life and have been rovering for over 2 years. I love getting to spend time with dogs and enjoy their company. I have dog sat through every hurricane and freeze as well so even during the unexpected trust your pup will be in good hands 🫶 I also had a senior dachshund for five years and he passed in 2023 due to cancer so I really love spending time with rovers and enjoying their company ❤️ I also am no stranger to meds. I can and have administered oral, ointment, and topical medication. I'm self employed so I’m able to do walks and drop-ins during the day! Im quite the homebody and working from home I like to have a reason like a walk to leave the house and get some fresh air and sunshine. I make sure my furry friends get all their energy out during play time and ensure theyre hydrated n happy 🥰 i am experienced in administering medications so I’m very aware of making sure any animal I’m watching is comfortable and taken care of correctly! I do not allow pets upstairs and sweep downstairs before having a rover over just to ensure there's nothing they can get into!

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!
About: Over a decade of cat care has taught me how to read subtle animal body language, respect emotional boundaries, and anticipate needs before they turn into stress. I carefully track appetite, hydration, and litter or bathroom habits, sending detailed updates and clear photos so you always know exactly how your pet is thriving. I maintain a schedule that allows me to be present throughout the day. I don't leave boarding pets unattended for extended periods, ensuring constant oversight and reassurance. I provide a calm, secure, and home-style environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for like family. Whether they board in my home or visit yours, my approach focuses on maintaining their normal habits and reducing stress.
“Sara has been great with walking Beans. She is very punctual and keeps me updated with photos. Beans looks forward to her walks and always comes home happy! Thank you, Sara!”

If i could recommend Alejandra 1000x over i would! She’s amazing. This last trip i ran into some last minute complications with my flight home. I reached out to Alejandra and asked if she could make some last minute accommodations to stay with my baby a little longer and she agreed. I’m so grateful for an amazing sitter like her!

Michelle was extremely attentive and even met prior to the booking to make sure she understood all instructions and got to meet the dogs. She was very communicative and kept me updated on everything that happened. She cleaned up the house from the pups making a mess which was so nice of her. I never worried with them in her care and I would book her again in a heart beat!

Zoe was our first dog sitter/walker after moving to Houston and she eased our nervousness immediately. She is so sweet with our large goldendoodles and had no problem walking them. They were so excited for her drop-in visits and can’t wait to book with her again!

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!

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.

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.

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.
