“Laurie did great with our three dogs. She also cleaned our house after a very rainy week while we were gone. I would recommend her to others for both house and pet sitting.”
“Kellie did great with my older dog Lolly (who is a fur factory) and our little Watson (who needs / wants to snuggle all the time). Thanks Kellie for taking such good care of the dogs.”
“Will was very attentive to Penny. Checked in on her, fed her at same time everyday and stayed overnight with her. When I came back on Sunday, she was very content, and not stressed at all. I will use Will again.”
“Nichole is the best! Second time we’ve used her for dog sitting at our home. She leaves the house so untouched sometimes I’m not even sure she cooked anything for over a week lol but I’m sure she ate at some point. Our dogs love her!”
“Matthew was amazing as always! Sent daily pics, updated me on anything new. Cleaned up after himself when he left. Thank you again Matthew for being so great.”
“Meg is wonderful. We absolutely love her. We have a dog that requires two shots a day (insulin) and we never worry. We recommend her, but don't want anyone taking her from us!”
“Second time Lindsay has watched our 2 kittens and dog. She does an excellent job communicating and making sure everyone is well cared for and loved while we’re away!”
“Alina stayed with our dog and two cats for five nights, and they seem so relaxed and happy when we got home. They clearly loved her! She took great care of everything and sent tons of pictures all week. Highly recommend!”
“We contacted Dora last minute for house sitting and definitely was the best decision we made!! She is AMAZING, lovely and patient, she keeps you updated all day with pictures, videos and texts, I’m a worried and nervous dog mom haha and the updates definitely made me feel better and calm. She loves what she does, that’s for sure. Our apartment and Luka, where in good hands, she’s really respectful with your place. She cares about every single and small thing, we have TONS of good things to say about Dora, run, don’t walk to reserve with her! Thanks for everything Dora, our family loves you! Million thanks, looking forward to have you again!”
“We had an amazing experience with Rylee and would absolutely book her again. She took such great care of our dogs while we were on vacation and kept us updated with thoughtful messages and photos throughout her stay. Seeing how happy and comfortable our dogs were with her gave us complete peace of mind. She was attentive to their needs, detail-oriented, and clearly genuinely cares about the animals she watches. On top of that, she went above and beyond with our home — taking out the trash (inside and patio), neatly gathering her used linens and towels, and making sure everything was in order before she left. Rylee is reliable, considerate, and truly a fantastic dog sitter. We’re so thankful to have found her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets.”
“Kaylin was excellent for our two very high-maintenance English bulldogs! She was attentive and gave us plenty of updates and pictures of the pups while staying over our house for the night. We greatly appreciate her and will be absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Damien did an amazing job at caring for my dogs. They warmed up to him very quickly loved being around him. He was also very respectful of the house and very clean. I will be booking him again. I highly recommend Damien to anyone needing a good sitter.”
About: I have owned animals most of my life. I had my first horse when I was 10 and my first dog when I was 12. Since then I have always had 1 and up to 4 pets at a time. I have had both dogs and cats, and still do. I have raised several puppies, but now I only adopt older dogs. When I travel, I always prefer for someone to come to my house where my pets feel the most comfortable and safe. Therefor my services are to stay with your pet/pets at their home. I am semi retired and need to stay active and engaged. I strive to schedule everyone's needs, but will not over promise and under deliver. Currently I am open 7 days a week for walking, sitting or play dates. I currently have 2 dogs and 1 cat. I live in a condominium with a small yard for the dogs to enjoy. Nevertheless, they still need more activity and stimulation so they still get daily walks. Olive the cat, comes and goes as she pleases, but is well fed and knows her love is here. All of my animals come from a rescue organization or the Animal Defense League. They are well loved, fed 2x a day, sleep on furniture and my bed with me, and of course taken on walks daily. I also, have a groomer that comes to the casa to bath and manicure them as they feel most secure with her than going to a grooming location. All of my pets are female, and have regular visits to the vet for the necessities.
“Kadence is an amazing sitter! I have four adorable fur babies, and they can be quite challenging, but Kadence handled everything with ease. I can't wait to book her again for our pet care needs she's simply the best!”
“Miranda was wonderful. My dog Nina was calm and relaxed when we came back home which is a great way to express that all went well. Our house was the way we had left, clean and organized. I will continue working with Miranda and recommend her to anyone who enjoys someone kind, polite and caring.”
“Leah was the BEST Rover I have had. She spent time with Shelby, not just coming in for a 5 minute walk, but actual time with her. I will contact her whenever I need someone for Shelby again.”
“Liz is AMAZING. My sweet rescue pup is a little anxious and jumpy, but Liz was so patient and gentle with her and gave her time to feel comfortable. And things went great! Liz sent photos and updates and left my house better than I left it. I could not be happier.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Castle Hills is $42

Miranda did an amazing job looking after our cat and house sitting. We were out of the country for a week and Miranda sent us daily updates and made us feel so comfortable and relaxed that our little baby was well looked after. I will definitely be requesting Miranda's services again!
Denise was fantastic! Her communication was excellent from start to finish, and she kept us updated with messages and photos throughout our trip. When we got home, it was obvious that Chevy had been well loved and well cared for. Knowing he was in such good hands gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely book with Denise again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!
Amazing sitter! Meet & greet went well- she was thorough- asked good questions and was kind to the dogs and cat! The sit itself went wonderfully, she sent photos and we got home to a very tidy home with a clean litter box and clean dog bowls! We would definitely recommend and will work together again!
Kayla once again did a great job taking care of my two dogs, one of whom is a challenging, picky eater and also needs special care due to a spinal problem. She texted and sent pics and updates several times a day. I felt very comfortable leaving my babies in her care.
We had an unexpected situation come up right as we were leaving for Puerto Rico, and our original sitter canceled last minute. Thankfully, this amazing couple stepped in on very short notice and completely saved the trip for us. From day one, they were incredibly reliable, communicative, and caring. They made sure our dog was comfortable, stuck to his routine, and handled his medication perfectly. We got regular updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while being away. You can tell they genuinely care about the pets they look after, and that meant everything to us. We came back to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and attentive sitters—we’ll definitely be booking with them again!
Sonya was SUPER sweet and attentive to my pups, I get super bad anxiety leaving my babies due to past experiences but with Sonya I didnt worry at all! My dogs are a pain and try and get away with everything so I'm very glad she knew exactly how to read my dogs!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Castle Hills on Rover is $37.23 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,763 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Castle Hills. 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 Castle Hills 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 Castle Hills 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 Castle Hills 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 Castle Hills. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
