“Maricella did an amazing job watching my two dogs. She ensured they were well taken care of and always sent plenty of pictures of the fur babies. She stayed in constant contact throughout the entire time she watched them. Would definitely recommend!”
“Olivia was a great in home sitter for our 3 babies! She checked in often with pictures, and we came home to a clean home filled with happy, exercised pups! I would highly recommend Olivia and will be rebooking with her in the future. 💛”
“Monica was wonderful with our pups. She showed them tons of attentions and play time and gave us daily updates and pictures. It gave us such peace of mind to know they were being so well taken care of.”
“Ad always David took such a good care of Meelo and our home! Definitely he will always be our number 1 dog sitter! He reaches out whenever he has a question and he keeps us in the loop with pictures of Meelo! Thank you David!”
“Whitney was great, she responded very quickly to a last minute request. Our pups were well taken care of and house looked after. She even did a quick mop of our floor when the pups tracked in mud after a rain storm. Would book her again!”
“Jaydin was absolutely amazing, and I truly cannot recommend her enough. From the very beginning, she was kind, friendly, and made us feel completely at ease. Most importantly, my dogs loved her, and that says a lot because they are not always the easiest with new people. She was incredibly attentive, kept me updated, and followed all of our instructions and house routines perfectly, which meant so much to me. Knowing my babies were comfortable, safe, and well cared for while I was away gave me real peace of mind. I would trust her again in a heartbeat to stay in my home and care for my dogs. There honestly aren’t enough words to express how grateful I am. Thank you for everything, Jaydin!”
“Leslie was amazing! She took care of our 4 furkids (3 yorkies and 1 yorkie/maltese/pekingnese mix) for over a week in our home. They had a great time with Leslie and were well-cared for! She sent updates and photos which was very much appreciated as 3 of our 4 are seniors. Leslie was very responsive to messages. We are very grateful to her for taking care of our furkids, our plants, and our home. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to pamper any pets!”
“Mica spent the day with my pup while I had to be outta town for work. He's a rescue with high separation anxiety and her presence while I was absent kept him calm and happy. She sent pictures through out the day and was respectful of my home.”

About: I’m a dependable animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes and temperaments. I’ve spent a lot of time around dogs, cats, and other small animals, and I’m comfortable handling feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and basic care routines. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to watch their pets because I treat every animal like my own—making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. My goal is always to provide a calm, reliable environment where pets get plenty of attention, activity, and love. I have plenty of time to care and love your dog. I treat every animal as if it was my own. My home is also spacious and I have a large fenced in back yard with a back porch. Your dog will get all the love and cuddles while you’re away and be in great hands! I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of room. I also live in a reasonably sized home and have two young children that will love and play with them. I will have a crate if you want me to crate your dog. If not, they will be able to hangout with me or on a dog bed! 😊
About: I have over a year of professional experience caring for dogs and cats as a pet sitter and dog walker with The Purrfect Paw in Waco. I’m experienced with following detailed care instructions, feeding routines, walks, playtime, medications, and providing attentive care based on each pet’s individual needs and personality. I’m comfortable caring for multiple pets and understand how important it is to be dependable, communicative, and respectful of both pets and their homes. I genuinely love getting to know each pet and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I currently have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to provide your pets with the attention and care they deserve. I’m available throughout the week for drop-in visits, walks, and pet sitting, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine as much as possible. I always follow each owner’s care instructions closely and make keeping pets safe and comfortable my priority. From my professional pet-sitting experience, I’m used to caring for pets in their own homes, respecting their routines, keeping doors and gates secure, and making sure their space is left clean and tidy. I’ll also keep you updated so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is being well cared for.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Belton
Maricella did an amazing job taking care of my 1-year-old Goldendoodle while I was away. She followed all of my instructions carefully and made the entire experience completely stress-free. Every day, she sent updates with photos and let me know what they had done, which gave me so much peace of mind. What impressed me most was how attentive she was to my puppy's needs. She made sure she was comfortable, well cared for, and received plenty of love, attention, and exercise throughout the day. Since my Goldendoodle is still young and full of energy, she requires lots of activity and engagement. Maricella handled her wonderfully by taking her on walks, playing with her outside, and keeping her active and happy. Also, having Maricella stayed overnight with my puppy, it was incredibly reassuring while I was away. I also appreciated that she was completely comfortable with my home cameras, making everything feel transparent and giving me even greater confidence. As an added bonus, she took care of a few thoughtful things around the house, like washing the blankets we had left out and tidying up before she left. It was such a nice feeling to come home to a clean house and a happy, well-cared-for pup. I truly felt my dog was in the best hands the entire time. Maricella is reliable, responsible, and genuinely caring. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional pet sitter.
Jessica is the absolute best! The first time she watched our dogs there were several hiccups that Jessica handed with care and understanding! Maci loved fetching and running around the backyard with her. While her bbrother, Goro, was spoiled with all the pets and cuddles. Jessica provided us with peace of mind while being out of town knowing our doggos were in GREAT hands
Leslie was amazing! She took care of our 4 furkids (3 yorkies and 1 yorkie/maltese/pekingnese mix) for over a week in our home. They had a great time with Leslie and were well-cared for!

We are very grateful to her for taking care of our furkids, our plants, and our home. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to pamper any pets!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Belton on Rover is $39.41 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 477 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.

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.
