“Kristy, was awesome she truly loved her work with my dogs. She communicates through out her visits with texts and lots of pics. She is the best sitter I have had and gained my insulin dependent dogs trust quickly. I would highly recommend her to anyone. She is a true dog lover and all animals in general.”
“Lulu did an amazing job taking care of my lurcher girl. She gave an end of day report with lots of pictures and kept our house super clean. I hope to have Lulu dog sit for us again in the future.”
“She was amazing. Our trip came at not the best time for our pets. We had just blended our families and our pets were still getting use to each other. She was able to help them become friends and learn to live with each other. She sent pictures every day and they were all very happy. I highly recommend her and will use her again”
About: Medical & Special-Needs Care I'm comfortable administering various types of medical care including oral medications, injections (such as insulin), and managing senior, recovering, or anxious pets. I understand the importance of careful observation, consistent routines, and timely communication with homeowners about any concerns. Training & Behavior With experience in dog and puppy training, I provide consistent reinforcement of commands, boundaries, and leash manners. I respect the training methods you've established and maintain the structure your pets need. Farm & Livestock Care I have hands-on experience caring for chickens, goats, and similar farm animals, including daily feeding, cleaning, and barn routines. I'm well-suited for rural properties or mixed residential/farm settings where animals require knowledgeable, capable care. Hi! I'm Chip - a U.S. military veteran and senior remote professional who works from home full-time. That means consistent companionship for your pets and a safely occupied, well cared-for home. My style is calm, structured, and detail-oriented: I follow your routine closely and I communicate clearly. I'm not house sitting for vacation or social purposes. I'm a dedicated professional seeking a quiet, well-maintained home where I can work productively while providing excellent care to your pets and property. What sets me apart is being the "adult in the room" — someone who respects routines, follows instructions carefully, and treats your home with the same care I'd give my own. What homeowners appreciate: • Military veteran background with ingrained sense of responsibility • Quiet, structured lifestyle with no parties or guests • Detail-oriented with careful attention to your specific instructions • Security-minded approach to home protection • Mature judgment and calm demeanor
“Jenni was outstanding! She was great to communicate with, went above and beyond in taking care of the house, and most importantly, the animals really felt safe with her. We will absolutely be requesting her services again.”
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life and have experience with pets of all sizes and personalities. I currently care for my black Lab, Lexi, and have previous experience working at a pet store, where I helped care for animals and learned the importance of patience, safety, and attention to detail. As a Fish, Wildlife, and Conservation Biology Alumni at Colorado State University, I’m passionate about animal care and understand how important it is to make pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet loves walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm companion, I’ll care for them like they’re my own! I recently graduated from Colorado State University and now have a very flexible schedule, allowing me to be highly available for pet care. Whether your pet needs daily walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or extra attention, I’m happy to work around their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and cared for. I’m dependable, responsive, and committed to giving your pets lots of love, playtime, and attention while you’re away! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I understand every pet has different needs and routines, so I take the time to learn what makes them feel comfortable and cared for. Whether in your home or out on walks, I’ll provide patient, attentive care and treat your pet like family. I’m reliable, respectful of your space, and always happy to send regular photo updates for peace of mind.
About: I’ve taken care of people’s dogs through pet sitting for the last five years mostly in Olathe, KS, but also in Lawrence. I am able to walk dogs, feed them, let them outside, bathe them, etc. I am available almost any day of the week as my only other commitment is being a student at the University of Kansas. I am very flexible. I love to be able to spend time with dogs and be able to play with them, either in the house, in a backyard. or walking them.
“Paige took great care of my fur babes while house sitting. She made sure they were well taken care of and even brought in packages we received while we were gone. I will be using her again in the future!”
“Lydia took the absolute best care of our dog Fynn while we were on vacation for the week. She was extremely responsive and diligent with our dog and with me. We got pictures of him and her playing every day. She was very respectful with our home. She even took in our mail :). She is very good with dogs and anyone who has her as their Rover is a very lucky person! We will absolutely be booking her in the future for our next vacation!! 100 out of 10: would recommend Lydia!!!”
“Christina was amazing with our babies! She even sent us pictures during our trip. It gave us peace of mind to have her here. We’ll be sure to have her take care of the girls on our next trip!”
“Jason is one of the top pet sitters we’ve ever had. At our meet and greet, he took notes and asked questions to make sure he had all the details covered. What set Jason apart was how invested he was in giving the same high level of care toward our non-traditional pets (parrot and gecko) as he did for our dog. He was confident, curious, and eager to learn about their needs so he could provide proper enrichment, beyond just basic care. He paid close attention to how they were doing, asked thoughtful questions, and happily tried suggestions to encourage our parrot’s appetite. It gave me peace of mind to know all our pets were getting attentive, genuine care while we were gone. I would especially recommend Jason for pet parents of non-traditional pets or pets with special needs, as he’s highly responsible, responsive, and detailed in his care of all animals.”
“She is very kind and caring and did a fabulous job taking care of our Star while we were out of town. She was also very responsive and we will definitely hire her again in the future.”
“What happy puppies! Thank you so much. I can tell they enjoyed your time with them. They were calm and happy to see me. They did look for you like, ‘hey where’s our new friend?’ I will definitely check out your availability when I need to travel again!”
About: Hi, I’m Avry! What sets me apart from your average pet sitter is my professional background. I spent over a year working at a local, small business dog daycare and boarding facility, which means your furry family member isn't just getting a companion—they’re getting someone trained in professional pack management, safety protocols, and diverse canine behaviors. I have a deep, lifelong love for all animals and genuinely treat them like human members of the family. Whether your pup needs high-energy playtime or quiet, patient comfort, I adapt completely to their vibe. My Hands-On Expertise Includes: Puppy Prodigy: Patient care and routine-building for the littlest ones. Senior & Special Needs Comfort: Experienced in gentle handling for aging or injured dogs. Medication Management: Confident and precise with oral or topical medical needs. Energy Matching: From exhausting the high-energy athletes to cuddling the low-energy couch potatoes. Reliable & Trusted: I currently manage weekday care for a private family, seamlessly blending their dog's routine into my daily schedule (even bringing them to work with me!). When your pet is with me, they get the structure and safety of a professional handler combined with the cozy, one-on-one affection in their own home. I can't wait to meet your best friend(s)! Because I lead an active and structured life, I thrive on routine—and so do dogs! I don't just 'fit' your pup into my schedule; they become a seamless part of my daily rhythm. Whether I’m working, opening shifts, or running errands, your dog receives dedicated, high-quality attention. I treat my busy days as opportunities for structured walks, mental stimulation, and perfectly timed potty breaks, ensuring your pup is never just waiting around, but actively cared for and loved. Consistency is Key: I mirror your dog's exact feeding, medication, and bathroom schedule, blending it perfectly with my own daily routines. Built-In Companionship: My schedule includes dedicated 'pup-first' blocks for high-energy exercise, structured decompression time, and plenty of belly rubs. On-the-Go Care: With my background, I’m an expert at managing time. Your dog gets a dynamic day filled with attention, not a lonely day waiting by the door. Proactive Communication: Even on my busiest days, you’ll receive regular photo updates and check-ins so you never have to wonder how your best friend is doing. Safety isn't a afterthought for me—it's my background. Having spent over a year working in a high-volume dog daycare and boarding facility, I am professionally trained in canine body language, pack management, and emergency safety protocols. I know how to spot the subtle signs of stress, fatigue, or illness before they become issues. Whether administering time-sensitive medication, caring for an injured pup, or supervising playtime, I apply professional facility-grade safety standards to every single pet in my care. You can rest easy knowing your dog is in hands that know exactly what to do in any situation." Quick Bullet Points to Include: Canine Body Language: Professionally trained to read dog behavior and prevent conflicts before they start. Medication & Injury Care: Fully confident and experienced in administering oral/topical medications and managing pups recovering from injuries. Constant Supervision: Pups are never left unattended in situations where safety could be compromised. Open Communication: I provide transparent, honest updates and photos so you are always in the loop.
“Gabby Wow! You treated Roscoe with such care and love. It was comforting to know he was in excellent hands while we were out of town. We loved your daily communication and photos. Thanks for taking such amazing care of our sweet boy! We loved having you as his sitter.”
“Alexandria did a great job when we went out of town. I have huge protective dogs and they took to her beautifully. She had the skill to know what they were thinking and manage it. She sent me tons of photos and asked questions when needed. I came home to happy, healthy pups. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Belton
Rachel was amazing and we will most definitely be calling her again! We went on a family trip and she accommodated taking care of both our dog and my in-law's pets (one dog, two cats). Our dog has some anxiety and doesn't always do well around strangers, but Rachel was so great at letting her warmup to her and she was comfortable around her after one visit! We were able to enjoy our family vacation knowing all our pets were so well taken care of!
Stoni was excellent to work with! She house-sit for us and our two giant breed dogs relatively last second, and was both attentive and communicative throughout. We received updates each day and returned to happy pups and a stable home. She administered meds and followed instructions to a tee - she even walked them the morning before we got home, just so they not wound up. We'd strongly encourage others to consider her for this kind of service.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Belton on Rover is $51.06 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 1,583 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Belton. 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 Belton 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 Belton 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 Belton 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.

- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
