“Rachel is the best! We just moved to our area and I was so glad that we found her to watch our 2 dogs and cat before our 4th of July trip. Our pets loved her and we will definitely ask her to dog sit again.”
“Jennifer was wonderful with Bambi! She was kind, reliable, and took great care of her while following all of our instructions. It gave us peace of mind knowing Bambi was in good hands. We’d happily book with her again!”
“Lulu is fantastic! She communicated well before, during and after the booking. She sent great updates and photos, and left the house looking spotless. I’ll definitely use Lulu again - can’t recommend her enough!”
“Tony is the ultimate pet sitter! He was absolutely lovely with my girls and loved on them the same way I would. He communicated daily and sent me a ton of pictures which helped when I was missing my babes. He kept the house clean and was a perfect guest! 10/10 would recommend.”
“We had Andie house sit for us while we were out of town for a few days and I would highly recommend booking with her! She was very nice and easy to work with and our animals were well taken care of. The house was left in perfect shape and with happy animals!”
“Kathryn is phenomenal. I have had her housesit for my 3 year old 10 pound toy poodle twice now. He suffers from separation anxiety and cannot be left alone for very long. The 2 times Kathryn has sat for me I was gone for long weekends. She stayed with him the entire time never leaving him alone. He absolutely adores her and is extremely comfortable with her. She is very loving and has no problems following the instructions I leave for her. I will only have her sit with him.”
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.
“Jason took unbelievably good care of my dog Ginger. Cuddles, pats and walks everyday plus plenty of time in the yard. The house was immaculate. Clean sheets on the bed, dishes washed, all good! I highly recommend him!”
“I would like to give Alexandria K 5 stars! We were very pleased with her house sitting and care of our fur babies, Bailey & Pickles. We look forward to working with her in the future.”
“This was the second time this year that Evie cared for Pippa, and it was as wonderful as the first time. It has been such a relief to know that I don't have to worry about Pippa in Evie's care, and that she will be healthy AND happy when I return. Thank you!”
“Rebecca watched our two cars for three weeks. She left the house spotless and the kitties well taken care of. I would have given her five stars if she had sent more updates and pictures. Even if they are just sleeping, we like to see them! Thanks, Rebecca. We will use you again!”
“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.”

Can’t thank her enough and would recommend her to anyone looking to have their dog watched, choose her and you won’t regret it! Thank you again!”
“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!”
“Julia stayed at our house with our dog while we were out of town! She was great, would recommend & would have her house sit for us again! She sent photos, communicated promptly & left our home just the way she found it. We appreciate you Julia!”
“Our Tilly loved Ashley and had a great time playing with her while we were on vacation. We came home to a happy doggy and a well taken care of home. It was nice to be able to relax knowing that our dog was being cared for, we will use Ashley again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Belton
Rachel was an enormous weight off our shoulders and we cannot thank her enough. We left the country for 7 days, and were so nervous to have someone take care of our animals. We have one dog who is not fond of strangers and needs extra time for getting comfortable. In fact, she’s never stayed with anyone other than the three people she knows and loves. By the end of the week, our pup was playing her favorite sport with Rachel, frisbee! We couldn’t have been happier with our choice of Rachel to comfort our sensitive girl. Rachel also sent loads of daily pictures that always brightened our day and made us feel much better at being away. We will not hesitate to use Rachel in the future and are so happy we found someone that our animals enjoy.
Katelyn gives the best care and attention to your Pablo when we are away! From long walks in the hot hot hottest part of the day…thank you very much! Friendly messages and pictures. She is the best, completely recommend for big dogs, no complaints from us or Pablo!
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.

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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
