“Kristin was AMAZING!! I would rebook her in a heartbeat. She sent updates frequently and walked the dogs. You can tell that she enjoys animals and giving them the best care. Highly recommend!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we left, he kept us updated with great communication, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that he genuinely cared not only for our dog but also for our home. When we returned, everything was exactly as we left it—our house was spotless, and our dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. He truly went above and beyond in every way, and it made all the difference knowing our home and pup were in such capable hands. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, trustworthy, communicative, and genuinely cares, we can’t recommend him enough. We will absolutely be booking with him again in the future!”
About: As a pet mom of 17 to 18 years, I have experience in taking care of both cats and dogs. I have had my fur babies since I was a child so I am also familiar with taking care of kittens/puppies as well as special care for senior dogs and senior cats with arthritis, kidney disease, and seizures. I have an especially soft spot for cats but adore all animals the same. Every fur baby deserves to feel safe and loved. I am currently focusing on my small crochet business so my schedule is pretty flexible. I prefer to work in the afternoons, as mornings are the bane of my existence. But! I am open to working in the mornings if needed <3 Whether its taking them for a walk, playing till their hearts content, cleaning up after especially messy babies (including dreaded baths), scheduled feeding, supplying them with a cozy lap to nap on, or even special care such as giving medication, or caring for senior babies. Anything they would need, I would be delighted to do it all for your baby to feel safe and loved while their parents are away!
“Chase loved having Annelise stay with him! She did a great job communicating and sending pictures and videos of him while I was gone. I would highly recommend booking with Annelise!”
“Bella was able to accommodate our last minute house sitting request during Easter weekend. She is very professional, responsive, and friendly. Thor absolutely adored her and it was wonderful receiving updates/photos. We look forward to booking with Bella soon for future services.”
About: Precious pet owner of a Saint Bernard her name was Cleo. I’ve also babysat for multiple families where I was involved sitting for their animals as well mainly dogs and cats a few times. I’m very patient with animals. I love to go on walks and have recently been a fan of running would love to get your animal out and about. I do work in an office Monday-Friday, but I go in around 9 and am out of there by 3. I have my own vehicle to go to and from and even during my lunches I’d be able to sneak away. Weekends are 90% free for me and able to accommodate. I have the apartment all to myself where you wouldn’t worry about anyone else dealing with your pet. We also have a fenced dog park in my apartment complex we’d be able to utilize.
About: Hi! My name is Andrea, and I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for many different kinds of pets. I currently have two dogs and three cats of my own, so I truly understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets like family. I’ve had pets throughout my entire life and have spent several years pet sitting for family, friends, and neighbors. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, or just hanging out, I always make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I’m experienced in administering different types of medications to cats and understand the patience and gentle approach it takes to make the process as stress-free as possible for our furry friends. I’m also happy to follow any specific care instructions to ensure your pet receives the attention they need. I’m currently a masters student, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. I know it can be super hard to be away from those we love and that every pet has their own unique personality and routine, so I’m committed to following your instructions carefully to keep them happy, healthy, and comfortable while you’re away. My goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care and give you peace of mind knowing your furry family members are in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! I’m currently a college student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m available for regular check-ins, walks, playtime, and overnight stays. Since I’m able to bring my schoolwork with me, I can comfortably spend extended time in your home while still keeping up with my studies and, most importantly, providing your pets with companionship and care. The safety and comfort of your pets is my top priority. When caring for pets in their home, I make sure to follow their normal routines and your specific instructions so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I treat every home with the same respect and care that I would want someone to show my own home and pets.
“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”
About: I have had dogs all my life! They are my absolute favorite animal of all time. Currently I own a Great Pyrenees, German shepherd, chihuahua pug mix, and a shelter mix! Though, throughout my life I have grown up with border collies, pitties, rotties, and border collies. Aside from my personal life experience, I worked at a dog boarding and daycare facility, The Pet Barracks, for almost a year. I cleaned and scrubbed kennels, picked up poop, monitored their feces for anything concerning, notified owners of issues, made each dog a new friend, bathed them, fed them eat the specific food owners gave, and overall just spent 5 days a week, 8 hours a day, giving hundreds of pups excellent care and attention. I’ve probably met at least 100 different breeds there! My entire day revolves around pet care, so it fits into my schedule like a glove. I have nothing to do all day, and the care for my own animals is done by 11am so I am free for it all! I wipe my shoes before I enter someone else’s home, make sure not to touch anything I was told I couldn’t, and am mindful of what I bump into. If I make messes, or the dog makes messes, I clean it asap soon as possible! I give the dog love, and make sure it’s comfortable with me harnessing/leashing before I do so! If it is not, I inform the pet parent.
About: I have had dogs my entire life. I’ve also had cats since 15. All pets deserve care when their owner is unavailable. It is very important to me that your pet is cared for as if they were my own. I am experienced in several pet care needs such at medication, walking, caring for and any specific needs for your pet. I’m currently a stay at home mom while also doing school. I have plenty of time throughout the day to care for your pets and would love to keep busy. Since I am a stay at home, I will bring my 2 year old with me but he will not interact with your pets unless otherwise stated. I am able to care for pets in your home. I will follow clear instructions precisely and I am also comfortable sending text updates, photos or FaceTimes if requested.
About: I’ve been taking care of my own dogs since I was 12, handling everything from feeding to bathing and grooming. Plus, I have experience with cats and reptiles through an externship with EPAS and TLC animal hospital! I’m also a certified veterinary assistant. I’m available weekdays before 8:30 and after 2pm. I have an open availability on weekends as of June 27th. I am willing to work things out for the care of your pets :) I only offer pet care in my home for small dogs. I have a big backyard where they can play, but I keep them separate from my three small dogs to ensure everyone’s safety. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll follow your care routine closely, making sure your pet is comfortable and well looked after in their own space.
“Iztel was great with my young golden pup Jack. I received messages and photos everyday. Great communication! I would definitely recommend her for house sitting and for hanging with a puppy.”
“Jacquiesce is an amazing pet sitter, I was able to enjoy my son’s wedding with no worries for our pets. I loved receiving updates and pictures, which made me feel assured all was going well. I recommend her highly to anyone.”
About: I love dogs of all kinds, but I have a soft spot for anxious or reactive dogs. I know how to give them the extra patience and care they need. My own dog brings light to my world so I know how special it is to trust someone with your best friend. I provide dog sitting, dog walking, and house sitting. I have a dog myself so I’m familiar with how to care for dogs. I don’t work currently so I’m free every week day and weekend! I can crate pets, feed them, play with them, and clean up after them! I know how to be firm but gentle and loving and kind to animals

FAQs for House Sitting - Chaparral
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Chaparral on Rover is $42.8 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 361 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Chaparral. 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 Chaparral 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 Chaparral 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 Chaparral 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 Chaparral. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
