About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life! We had a family dog when I was growing up and I would house/ pet sit for my neighbors when they would go out of town. I currently have three fur babies. A 2 year old Cane Corso/ Stafford Terrier named Moose, a 2 year old pit bull mix named Oakley and a cat named Romeo! Having three animals under one roof has been quite the experience but I’ve loved every moment of the chaos. Since I currently work from home full time I’m available Monday- Sunday most weeks and my schedule is pretty flexible. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out. Working from home allows me to keep a close eye on your baby and adhere to whatever potty break or play schedule you have set.
“Sydney was absolutely wonderful! Before our appointment, she took the time to meet Mona, get familiar with our area, and understand all of her needs. On the day of the appointment, she was punctual, and kept me updated throughout, which I really appreciate it. Most importantly, Mona was so happy to spend time with her! I highly recommend Sydney and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Thank you Sydney!!!”

About: I have always loved animals of all kinds, and I will ensure your furry friends are treated as if they were my own. I have always lived with cats and dogs and have cared for all sorts, from low maintenance "living plants" to buddies who need extra care and support due to age or ailment. I have an extremely flexible schedule so I can adapt to whatever routine you and your pets are used to, whether that's early morning walks or late night feedings. I can do it all with ease. I will abide by any and all rules you have for both your house and your pets and I will make sure they are followed to the strictest interpretation.
“We had such an amazing experience with Tuongvi and Ray. They stayed at our home for five nights to care for our baby girl Roxy. I truly could not have asked for better sitters. They took amazing care of Roxy and treated my home with so much respect while they were here. It gave me peace of mind knowing she was in such loving and responsible hands. Communication was excellent from start to finish… they sent daily updates and pictures which was very reassuring that Roxy was happy and well cared for. Grateful to have found them, and I am booking them again for two more trips I am taking.”
“Allison was amazing with our girls Milli and Maxi. She was responsive with all her replies, our special requests and we felt at ease with Allison taling care of our girls at home. The babies always had big smiles and were always very relaxed. Thanks for all the updates and a great job all around. The girls look forward to her next visit.”
“Jasmine did an absolutely outstanding job dog sitting Miles and Chase while we were away on vacation! She went above and beyond with their care, providing regular updates and sharing plenty of pictures that kept our minds completely at ease. We were welcomed back to incredibly happy dogs and a beautifully clean home. Thank you, Jasmine, for everything! We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
“Absolutely sweetheart!! I trusted her with my two polar opposite dogs and she did absolutely amazing!! Stayed with them all day so they didn’t have to be in a cage all day. She was very responsive and send updates throughout the day. 10/10 would recommend and rebook again!!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, including my own. I’ve also helped care for family and friends’ pets through feeding, walking, playtime, and overnight dog sitting. Since my own dogs are older, I’m especially patient and attentive with senior dogs, but I also enjoy the energy and care that puppies need. I understand the importance of keeping pets comfortable, safe, and on their normal routines while their owners are away. I’m currently a college student home for the summer, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets throughout the day. I’m available Sunday through Friday during daytime hours, with Friday availability until around 3 PM. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and daytime pet care in clients’ homes. I currently provide pet care services in clients’ homes only so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routines. I always try to create a calm, safe, and caring atmosphere while following each pet’s specific needs and instructions carefully. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, including energetic puppies and senior dogs that may need extra gentle care.
“Monic was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING with all six of our furbabies (3 cats and 3 dogs)! We had never left them with anyone other than family, but she went above and beyond to make sure they were well-taken care of and that she kept us informed of how they were all doing daily! We will be booking her for ALL of our future vacations because our babies were happy and she just did such a magnificent job with them!!! 1000% recommend her!!! ❤️”
“Absolutely love Ellen. She has taken wonderful care for our Abby while we were away. Could not be more pleased. She kept us updated throughout each day with photos and texts. Wouldn’t think of using anyone else”
“Natalie is AMAZING!! She did a meet and greet with us and it was clear from the start how much she loved animals. Aside from instructions, she got on the floor and engaged with our cats. While on our trip, she sent us pictures, videos and updates for all three cats. Eventually, even our shy cat came out and began hanging out in the common area; she made sure to check on him everytime she came over. She was amazing with communicating when she was on her way and heading out, too. While we were gone, she even cleaned up litter from the floor and tidied uo our place. She is phenomenal, we really appreciate Natalie so much!”
“Alyssa was the absolute best! She took such good care of our babies and gave us updates all throughout the stay! We never had to worry about if the boys were okay, because she constantly gave us reassurance! She left our home cleaner than we left it! I can not recommend Alyssa enough! We will definitely be using her again!”
“Ryan did a great job taking care of my cat and dog. We have never used a pet sitter before and were very pleased with the care that my animals got. We’ll definitely use the service again!”
“Kyla is truly the best! She has been watching my dog since she was 3 and I never have to worry about how she’s doing when I’m gone. Kyla really goes out of her way to make her feel comfortable and happy while i am gone. 10/10 high recommend!”
“Here's a review you could use for Chad, the pet/house sitter: --- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I can't thank Chad enough for stepping in at the last minute to care for my pets and home. His professionalism and reliability were evident from our first conversation. He took the time to understand my pets' needs and routines, ensuring they were comfortable and well-cared for during my absence. Chad sent me regular updates and photos, which put my mind at ease. When I returned, everything was in perfect order, and my pets were happy and healthy. It's rare to find someone who genuinely cares as much as he does. I highly recommend Chad for anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring pet/house sitter. He truly went above and beyond!”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. My first pet was a hamster, and my parents made sure I was responsible for his daily care. Since then, I’ve cared for all kinds of animals, including fish, reptiles, small mammals, and dogs. Today, I have three dogs of my own: King Julian, my almost 14 year old miniature schnauzer, Simba, my energetic yellow lab, and Rhino, a pit bull mix. Caring for dogs in different stages of life has given me experience with everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I am comfortable handling dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and behavioral needs. Whether your pet needs medication, extra exercise, a consistent routine, or just lots of love and attention, I will care for them as if they were my own. As a paramedic and current nursing student, I am calm under pressure, dependable, and attentive to details. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. You can expect frequent updates, photos, and videos while you’re away so you can relax knowing your furry family member is safe, happy, and well cared for. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur baby! My schedule is pretty flexible right now! I am currently in nursing school and work part time, picking up shifts as my schedule allows. Because of this, I have a lot of availability during the week and can often accommodate last minute requests. I am generally available Monday through Friday and can provide walks, drop in visits, and overnight care. If I ever have a scheduling conflict, I promise to communicate promptly and honestly so you can feel confident your pet is will be taken care of ! I understand that consistency is important, and I take my commitment to caring for your pet seriously. I like to keep your pet’s routine as normal as possible so they feel comfortable and stress free while you’re away. I’ll make sure they have fresh water, meals on schedule, plenty of potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and lots of love and attention. Before caring for your pet, I’ll take the time to learn about their personality, routines, favorite activities, medications, and any special needs so I can care for them the way you would. I’ll also send plenty of photos and updates because I know how much we all miss our pets when we’re away from them!
About: Loving animals has always been a big part of my life. I believe playing with pets helps me as much as it helps them. For the past three years, I've fostered both dogs and cats, giving me experience with pets of different ages, energy levels, and personalities. I understand how important it is to earn an animal's trust, follow their routine, and provide attentive care. I will care for every pet as if they are my own and will always send regular photo updates so you know your pet is happy while you're away. I’m available weekdays (preferably after 5pm, but if not, no worries) and anytime on weekends. I am a college student back home for the summer, and the only commitment I have is a flexible, virtual internship. I believe routine is key when caring for pets, when a routine is broken it can be very stressful for them and can even cause them to be sick. That is why I like to stick to their regular feeding + exercising schedule and make sure to keep up the same level of love and attention you give them when you’re with them!
“Karina did an outstanding job caring for our cats and went above and beyond throughout her stay. Even when our air conditioner broke during an intense heat wave, she handled everything with grace and professionalism, and left our home in immaculate condition, we couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Brazos Country
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 2,082 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Brazos Country. 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 Brazos Country 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 Country 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 Brazos Country 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Brazos Country. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
