“Linda was amazing with our GSD. She kept us updated daily while we were out of town and sent lots of pictures. It made traveling easier knowing he was in good hands. I would definitely recommend her and use her in the future!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs & cats of all kinds for about 5 years. I have 3 cats, 1 dog, and 3 birds. I have watched/ taken care of family members and neighbors animals. I work full time 7a-7p 3 days a week. Usually Sunday-Tuesday occasionally Wednesdays. So I am available towards the end of the week and some Sundays! I am able to come to your home and care for your pets however you need. Feeding, walking, lovins, or just an occasional check in to make sure they are okay.
“Tracy was such a great sitter for our multiple pets while we were away. We have a senior dog that was having some issues while we were away and Tracy took incredible care of her and kept us updated with all information without having to ask. She was very patient and kind with our pets and definitely recommend her to others!”
About: I have had dogs since I was little and grew up taking care of them. I used to take care of the neighbors cats when I was younger and feel a strong responsibility towards all animals in my care. I recently cared for a young puppy to include walking her and a very old dog who required special assistance moving around. I pay close attention to how you want your pet taken care of because I expect the same for my doggies. I am currently not working and am very flexible with a schedule to include weekend care. I do prefer to work during daytime hours but will work with you if you need someone in the evenings . I will strictly follow your instructions on how you want your animals taken care of. My last client requested I follow their rules on training their puppy which I did. I will play, love and walk your dogs depending on your needs.
“Jen was AMAZING. She watched my dog and two cats for 10 days and I don’t have a single complaint. She was very communicative, the house was clean when we returned, and my pets loved her. Jen’s love of animals is pure and you could see it during the meet & greet. I will recommend Jen to anyone in the area in need of a sitter (except on days that I need her!!!). I could not ask for a better house sitter and will definitely be booking again in the future.”
About: We are a close family of all adult children who together breed and train emotional support animals. I am someone you can trust last minute or with extensive planning to make sure your vacation or time away goes off without a hitch. Reliability and Integrity are crucial when it comes to caring for your fur babies and I know how important these qualities are and how rare it is to find. I prefer to housesit in the comfort of your own home and have years of experience in doing so with our local veterinarians. I have cared for aggressive dogs that are very protective of their owner, the ones that attack when you are around, but once you leave cuddle in my lap. Busy pups and dogs that need to play, go on walks, learn tricks, and play ball to lap dogs or those who a little old and slow. I know tiny teacups need you to watch them uber carefully in every way to Large Bernese Mountain Dogs that seem super loud and scary but only require a bit more strength. I am changing my career focus from occupation to avocation. I am focusing on moving my business from the service industry to retail where I will be a delegative manager. My children are all in college in different cities where I spend time away with each one. I keep my schedule updated and flexible so that same day care is available when I am home while allowing me to change my plans to fit your required needs. I prefer to keep pets your pets at home where they are comfortable and to prevent separation anxiety. From my personal experience as a breeder and trainer and having very special fur babies of my own this is my personal preference. My pets do not need to share in the experience and they are kept at home and do not interfere with our arrangement. However, I have a 2200 square foot home with 3 acres that are mostly fenced in. I usually walk pets around the property and those that are well trained are able to stay close by where I can unleash and play. Those that need extra care will be walked for their daily duties. I actively work online and am able to keep busy while hanging our at your home keeping everything nice and tidy just as your left it.
“We are thrilled to have found Kelly! Our dogs are family to us, and one has serious medical issues, so we are PICKY about who we leave them with. With Kelly staying at our house, we didn't worry about our dogs for a second. She's always quick to respond and keeps us updated on everything. She clearly understands dogs and enjoys them -- and they really seem to like her! We came home to a very clean house and happy, comfortable dogs. Any future travel will be scheduled based on when Kelly is available!”
“If there was a way to leave 10 stars, we would. Kelley was wonderful! We received updates and pictures throughout our trip, and it was evident she was giving our baby so much love and snuggles. When our flight was delayed and then our car wouldn’t start, she stayed with our boy until we got home, just to make sure he (and we) were ok, and even offered suggestions on what could be happening with our car. The house was spotless when we got home (I mean - even cleaner than we left it). We already have her booked for two more stays and will be booking her for even more! Thank you, Kelley!”
“Paula was amazing! She met me for a meet and greet super last minute before I left town the next day. She communicated throughout the day and sent me pic of my doggie and he seemed to enjoy her company! Highly recommend her services!”
“Keri was absolutely fantastic! She took great care of my home and my cat while I was away. Communication was consistent and thoughtful, with regular updates and photos that gave me total peace of mind. My cat was clearly happy, comfortable, and well cared for when I returned, and my house was in perfect condition. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter, and I would gladly book them again.”
About: I've been taking care of cats since I was young and I've had several cats since age 6. As for dogs I never owned my own dog but there were always dogs in the family that I helped take care of along with dogs of my friends. Right now I am trying to find a job and I'm looking for fully remotes so my schedule is pretty open and I can do it pretty much all day. For in home or in your home I make sure that they're fed and they get plenty of water throughout the day so that generally means checking at least three or four times to make sure they have what they need. Then giving them plenty of stimulation so they're not bored and that's done through toys and chasing and just taking them out for fun adventures

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Brazos Bend
Katherine sat with our 3 Pembroke Welsh Corgis for 6 days in September 2026. She stayed at our home in Pecan Plantation. She was great with communication and sent daily pictures of the dogs. We have puppy to senior and she could easily handle them all. The dogs didn’t skip a beat during our absence. I believe she was a calm confident presence for them. And she left our house in great shape.
Casey was absolutely amazing! She was extremely thoughtful, compassionate, and attentive to our fur babies. She has such a calming energy about her, which immediately made us feel comfortable and confident leaving our babies in her care. Her communication was fantastic, and she kept us updated throughout the entire time, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. You can genuinely tell how much Casey cares about the babies she looks after. We are so grateful for the love and care she gave our fur babies and would absolutely recommend Casey to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust. We will definitely be using her again! ❤️🐾
We were so fortunate to find Robyn! Our pet family took up with her while we were on vacation. Robyn was a blessing to find. We needed someone with whom our pet family felt comfortable with, and someone who had the flexibility to be at our home a considerable amount of time. Robyn meet and exceeded all of our criteria and expectations. We enjoyed receiving updates and pictures and the overall feeling that everything was taken care of. I will most definitely hire Robyn again as well as recommend her to others. Thank you Robin!

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 Brazos Bend 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 Brazos Bend 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 Brazos Bend 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!

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 .

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.
