“We are very grateful to Bryce and Nate for caring for our Stella! This was our first time hiring a pet sitter (aside from friends and family) and we were pleased with how well things worked out. Both Bryce and Nate are very friendly and Stella warmed up to them right away. From the get go the communication was great, and we felt confident that she was being well cared for. We will definitely ask them to help out again!”
“Ana was very thorough during the meet & greet; you could tell she took caring for our pup very seriously. The house looked better when we returned than when we left. We'd be thrilled to work with her again in the future!”
“Angelica was great! She communicated with us prior and during the house stay and set clear expectations. This was our first time doing house sitting and we were thrilled! Our pups are terrified of fireworks and she sent plenty of pics of them cuddled up with her relaxing. Overall a great experience with someone that you can tell loves animals! We will definitely use her again!”
“Zack was the perfect dog & house sitter for us - he spent tons of time with our dog (and sent us plenty of photos), kept our wood burning stove going to keep the house warm, and even stacked wood for us when a delivery showed up while we were out of town. Webster was excited to see us, but I think he would have been fine if it was Zack walking back in the house instead!”
“Jessica was an incredible pet and house sitter! She took such wonderful care of Shadow, and it was obvious that she was happy and well loved while we were away. Jessica kept us updated, gave us complete peace of mind, and left our home spotless. We are so grateful for the excellent care she provided and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring pet sitter. We would happily have Jessica watch Shadow again!”
“Sarah did an amazing job with a last minute booking. She took on 3 working dogs, one of whom has heart issues, medications, and special feeding instructions. She and I stayed in communication the whole time and it went off without a hitch…on my end anyways. Sarah was willing to come back in case of any travel issues which I greatly appreciated. Will definitely use her again as I came home to 3 happy dogs!”
“Alyssa did a great job taking care of my dog while I was gone! I got pictures, updates, and she even went to get him a new leash because his snapped, so that my boy could still enjoy his walks while I was gone! She went above and beyond and I would highly recommend her to care for your pets. 😊”

I’m a dependable, caring, and patient animal lover who treats every pet like they’re part of my own family. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, and I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

I’m reliable, communicate well, and I’m happy to send photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members and giving them the love and care they deserve! I have 2 family golden-doodles who have taught me huge amounts about dogs! My family adopted them when they were puppies and have been adored since.
“Our boys loved having Kristina stay with them! She is very attentive and made sure they were comfortable. She cares for your pets as if they are her own. Kristina was very communicative and sent regular updates and pictures. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing the boys were in great hands. In fact, we’ve already booked another stay with Kristina! 🐕🦺🐶”
“Ashley watched my elderly dog for 5 nights on our first booking and I came home to a happy and spoiled pup, a clean house, mail on the kitchen table… everything as I would hope. I received lots of pictures and videos and I can just tell my dog was so well cared for. Feeling really thankful and I’ll definitely be hiring Ashley again in the future.”

“I couldn’t have asked for better person to watch our girl, Chutney. Sandra is kind and conscientious. Our muppet received lots of love, cuddles, belly rubs and playtime during our absence. The house was immaculate upon our return and Sandra went beyond expectation when an unexpected plumbing issue required attention Communication was excellent.”

“Neil was so thoughtful and took great care of our home and our dog Apollo! We received photos & updates as we requested. Not only did the house look exactly as we had left it, but our dog was happy to see us and didn’t behave as though he was starved for attention—which meant Neil must have been super attentive to his needs. THANK YOU NEIL!!! We’ll definitely use you again!”
“Michelle took care of our house and animals for a week. We came home the house cleaner and more peaceful than when we left. Our animals were excited to see us and more calm than when we usually come home which tells us they were loved and given the attention they needed while away. We couldn’t give her higher a recommendation.”
“We are very happy Madison agreed to watch our fur army in our home. Her communication was fantastic. She kept us updated on how they were doing and when we arrived back home, our house was very neat and tidy and our fur babies looked like they had a great weekend! We highly recommend Madison and we hope she will be available for the next time we have to go away!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Buckhorn Springs
Darla really showed up for us. Our previously booked cat sitter was a no-show before we discovered ROVER app. We were thrilled to hear back immediately from Darla who was available last minute to sit for ‘Joe’. Darla was easy to communicate with, gave us updates with photos and left our home in perfect condition. We look forward to having Darla back again soon.

FAQs for House Sitting - Buckhorn Springs
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Buckhorn Springs on Rover is $64.55 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 188 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Buckhorn Springs. 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 Buckhorn Springs 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 Buckhorn Springs 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 Buckhorn Springs 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 Buckhorn Springs. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
