“When your dogs don’t recognize you when you walk in the front door after a few days of vacation and hide behind her, you know your Sitter was awesome! From the first meeting of my mini pack, Ms Juanita was well liked by my pups after 5 minutes. Ms. Juanita kept us updated daily and sent pictures too. She was my pups “Thunder buddy” during a bad thunderstorm and kept my 2 elder pups comfy as possible. We look forward to trusting and booking with Ms. Juanita again. And my pups agree!”
About: I love dogs with everything and care for them so much they deserve so much more, they are extremely important to me always have been. I’m currently going into college so I’m free every time now, I have nothing to do so I’m free to take care of every fur baby I have a lot of time on my hands so I can take care of you’re fur baby as much as possible give much love and play with them
About: Hello - I’m glad you’re here! My name’s Marina and I live in El Paso, TX - 79938. My husband and I just got restationed here so it’s just us and my five year-old corgi, Koda. I work full time from home so I would love to watch your pup! I only host one dog at a time to make sure every dog gets the love and attention they need. We incorporate the dogs under our care into our daily life. My husband, Koda and I like to go to coffee shops, and walk around the neighborhood so if we’re watching your dog over the weekend, there’s a chance your dog will be joining us for coffee shops (pup cups!) and judging people’s homes 😉 I’m available weekdays and weekends (with notice). I have a large fenced backyard and dogs are allowed in all spaces - couches & bed included. During the weekdays, I work from home so you can find me in my office and the dogs in my care usually hang out on the couch in there with me.
“Hugo was amazing with my pups Lucky (2 y/o pit mix) and Ivy (2 y/o Husky). I never had to worry about them while I was out of town with limited service. He constantly sent updates and was checking in. Will definitely be booking him again!”
About: I love animals, and dogs will always have my heart. I've always had a pet myself my whole life. I think life can be boring without having a pet of your own. You can trust that I will take care of your pet in every aspect. Pet care fit into my daily routine because I have dogs of my own that I take care of every time I leave to work and get home from work. I make sure they are fed, watered, taken care of and sleep well in their bed. I always think of what pets also needs. When a dog is being walked, carry with you a bowl when they get thirsty. In those hot days, let's think that their paws are burning too and that is why they also need their own dog shoes. Try for your pets to be in a cage when taking them on your vehicle. Remember an accident can also cause their life.
“She was wonderful!!! Very personable with my lab, Panini! I could tell Panini liked her at the meet and greet. She took great care of her and was great with communication. Highly recommend”
“Yara was great! She came a week early to do a meet and greet with Gizmo and followed all the detailed instructions! She also sent me daily photos of my dog which gave me that extra conditioner! She was very sweet and attentive while taking care of my pup! Plan to use her again for future overnight visits!! A++++”

When caring for cats or dogs in a client’s home, I will respect both your pet’s normal routine and your home.

I’ll also keep you updated during visits so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe, cared for, and getting plenty of love and attention while you’re away.
“Toni did an outstanding job watching our 12 year old Labradoodle, Daisy, for a week. She was super attentive to our needs that included watering and caring for a vegetable garden and many flowering plants in our yard. Daisy has a couple health conditions related to her age and Toni followed all our instructions regarding her care perfectly. We came home to a happy healthy pupper and the house & yard looked great! Highly recommend!”
“I almost don’t want to leave such a stellar review because I selfishly want to keep Michelle’s skills/service a secret to avoid her being unavailable when I and my fur babies need her. She was an absolutely delight. Not only did she make sure my furbabies were well cared for and my house taken care of, I felt that I came back to my house being cleaner than when I left it! If you are in need of any pet/house sitting services I would 100% recommend, Michelle!”
“Leah was very friendly and professional. She did an excellent job. She was very flexible and was great at letting me know how my pets were doing. She put my mind at ease and I had a worry free vacation. ”

The average cost of House Sitting in Butterfield is $29 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $30 per night.

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 Butterfield 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 Butterfield 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 Butterfield 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 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.
