“Can't say enough about how great Christina was with Kit-Cat! This was the first time leaving her alone & we were hesitant... Christina's warmth & love of animals was apparent from our first meeting. Searching for a reliable cat sitter can be stressful, but she made the entire process seamless. She provided consistent updates, which gave us great peace of mind. Thank you Christina!!!”
“Julia is the best! She was timely and responsible. WhileI was away she sent pictures every day which warmed my heart. Julia didn’t hesitate to ask questions so my fur babies would be taken care of in the best way. She is gentle and kind. My two dogs and cat loved her company. I will book her again if she is available!! I highly recommend Julia to anyone who needs fantastic care of their fur family!! Thank You Julia.”
“Belinda was great with both her communication and especially with our fur babies! She asked questions if she was unsure about something and let us know when she was running late one day (which was nothing honestly!) One of our dogs was a little hesitate when she first came over, but by the end she found a new friend in Belinda. We look forward to working with Belinda again!”
About: I've been a dog person my entire life and have hands-on experience with just about every size, age and personality. I've shared my life with an Old English Sheepdog, Wolfhound/Lab mix, Eurasier and Pit/Staffy mix, and I've cared for everything from champion show Miniature Schnauzers and Labs to Huskies, Malamutes and lovable mixed breeds. I'm comfortable with puppies as young as 7 weeks, seniors, giant breeds and strong pullers. I can reinforce leash manners and basic training, work on tricks and enrichment, and adapt walks and visits to what your individual dog needs. I also have firsthand experience with reactivity and work with my own reactive dog every day. I understand body language, managing triggers, creating appropriate space and following the training and routines you already use with your dog. I've used Rover as a pet parent myself, too, so I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog. You can expect me to follow your instructions, communicate reliably and send plenty of updates so you know your pup is safe, happy and well cared for. I currently have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of availability for walks and drop-in visits throughout the week, including daytime hours. I’m also open to recurring weekly care for pets who benefit from having a familiar face and consistent routine. I’ll keep my Rover calendar updated so you’ll always know when I’m available. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I’ll follow your care instructions and routines closely and take the time to learn your pet’s personality, body language and boundaries. On walks, I’m attentive to our surroundings and other dogs, and I’m comfortable managing strong pullers and dogs who need extra space from triggers. In your home, I’ll treat your space with the same care and respect I’d want someone to show mine. I’m also happy to send photos and updates after every visit so you know exactly how your pet is doing.
About: I love hiking and animals, so rover is perfect for my situation. I’ve grown up with dogs and various other animals my whole life and I currently own a cat and a dog with my husband. I have over 50+ hours of volunteer work at the humane society and have a certification for basic obedience in dog training. Your pets needs are my top priority and their well being is in my best interest. I’d love to work with any dog breeds cats, and am open to other species. I’m easy going and responsible with availability on additional requests for your pet(s). I have a pretty flexible schedule and I’m very attentive and will make time to make sure your pet is happy and its needs are fulfilled! I love animals and I will do my best to keep your animal safe and cared for. Safety and comfort for your pet are always my number one priority. Right now I’m working part time so I have more flexibility than on my profile and am willing to discuss any additional requests or times. When caring for pets in my client's home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal as possible. I know pets are happiest when they feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I'll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, medications, exercise, playtime, and any special needs or preferences. I pay close attention to each pet's behavior and well being, making sure they have fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of love and attention. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.
“Coral was an amazing pet sitter for our anxious kitty. It can be difficult to find a sitter that our cat is comfortable with. During the meet and greet, our cat was already rubbing up against her legs and wanting to smell her! During drop-in visits, she made sure to take lots of pictures and send detailed notes, which I really appreciated. Coral also cleaned up the house a bit (took trash out, started dishwasher, etc.) before she left, which was such a thoughtful touch. We (and our kitty) would hire her again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Coral for your great work!”
“Evelina was amazing with my two fur babies!! If I could rate higher then 5 stars most definitely would! She was very sweet and caring. Regular photos and updates! Awesome!!! Will definitely hirer her again!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a kid and we had dogs of our own at home (even three at one time!) and have also taken care of cats many times over the years for friends and family. Walk, feed, play, lovins (of course) - you name it! I'm the type who goes out of my way to ask to pet a dog anywhere I go. I'd be delighted to care for your pet! I work from home self-employed, so my weekly schedule is quite flexible most of the time. For dog walking,mid-day to evening is usually the best time. If I am caring for a pet in my home, I'm sure to get them outside often as I do not have a yard. But I'm also willing to care for your pets in your own home!

I cater to you I work Mon-Fri, but do come home at lunch for an hour if I’m boarding at my house. I have weekends off and open availability I have a fenced yard and have friendly playful fur babies too. I will accommodate to medication or dietary needs, we can crate if needed.
About: I have been around dogs for over 20 years. I can connect with them in ways others cannot. I have never had an issue with a dog and people often tell me that dogs love me. I am currently looking to take on as much as I can! I am a runner so if your dog likes going on runs I can take them with me or if they like the slower pace of walking I can do that too. I’m a grad student so when I’m not in class I’m at home My roommate has a dog that stays in his kennel most of the day besides when he is let out and if there is another dog in the house that I am watching over they stay with me in my room and typically never leave my side
About: Growing up on a small farm in rural Texas, i’ve been surrounded by animals by entire life, yet our little furry friends that we allow to live in our homes always have been my specialty. I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 5, have taken many vet-med classes, and even have interned as a small animal veterinarian. I love an active, rowdy dog who is down to run laps and play all day, or even a relaxed gentle pup who just wants cuddles. I have intensive experience with senior dogs, I am able to administer any medicines/vaccines your puppy may need! I currently work at home so I am available to love your pup all around the clock!! I do online classes at CSU, so I am only away typically for errands and gym! I live solo in a pet-free, child-free apartment that is spacious and has an unfenced backyard, however there is a park nearby to take any runners out in!
About: I've house and pet sit for friends & family for years, due to my size I can walk more than one big dog at a time. I'm a Lyft driver so pets and home can come first during my work week without any worries because I set my own schedule at Lyft. I will provide the exact rules that you leave for your home and pets and act as if I could be you the parents as much as I able while you're gone.
“Elizabeth was amazing working with me last minute to help me out with our 2.5 high energy shepherd/husky mix. Walked her and provided her with treats. 10/10 recommend. Life saver so last minute.”
“I found Nichole last minute for a five day trip I was taking to come check on, walk, and feed my great pyrenees senior dog. She was excellent and professional, as well as trustworthy and easy to get along with. She sent me photos and gave me an update each time she stopped by, and was great with my dog. She gave my dog her medicine, made sure to keep her water full, and was always on time for her drop-in visits. I'll definitely use Nichole as my sitter again should the need arise. Highly recommend!!”
About: I have my Bachelors degree in Science with and emphasis in Zoology, and I did an internship in Florida at a wild horse rescue. I absolutely love caring for and protecting animals! I am sensitive to their body language and behaviors, and I respect the wishes/instructions of their owners. This is my full-time job, so I have all the time in the world to care for animals. I also have my own vehicle and can take pets wherever they need to go. The only caveat is that since I have a dog at home, I do need to go home for a few hours every day during the week to check on him and let him out to potty while my mom is at work. This just means that your animals will need to be able to be okay at home by themselves for a few hours at a time while I take care of my dog or run errands. I believe that the best way I can care for your pets while you’re away is in the environment where they feel the safest, and for that reason I don’t board animals in my home. I exclusively do overnight pet sitting/house sitting where I stay in my clients’ homes to care for their animals.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Buda is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $36 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 8,338 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Buda. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Buda. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
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.
