“Colleen did a fabulous job staying with and keeping both our pups happy while we were away! She send photos and updates regularly which put us at ease. We definitely recommend her to anyone! 👍🏻👍🏻”
“Madison is wonderful! She took care of everything! This was my first Rover experience as a pet owner and I am thoroughly satisfied. She helped me feel at ease and assured me that she had everything in hand. Thank you so much! We will definitely have her again! 😊❤️”
“We recommend Landon as a fantastic dog sitter. He sent photos and communicated consistently while we were away. Our dogs loved him, and even our neighbors noted how kind he is. Landon treated our home respectfully and followed our care instructions (including helping with our rescue dog who is recovering from heartworms!) We look forward to booking him again!”
“Ida did a fantastic job taking care of our fur babies. We will definitely use her again. She sent us updates and pictures of our babies and they just love her! Thank You So Much!!”
“One of my dogs can be incredibly difficult and Jadyn was amazing with her. She was great with my other dogs too. Jadyn was also kind enough to add our third dog to the boarding last minute because of unexpected changes. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Bianca took good care of our pups while we were away. She wasn’t able to stay overnight like we planned all nights but she made sure to care for our animals while away. Would recommend using for drop ins and overnights possibly.”
“She was really great with my dogs and left my house clean and even got my laundry and dishes started without me asking. It was my first time having a sitter stay at my place, and it worked out well.”
About: With a lifetime of dedicated experience, I offer professional, reliable care for dogs and cats. My belief centers on prioritizing your pet's comfort and happiness by treating them as my own. I maintain a safe, stimulating, and consistent routine, including strict adherence to dietary needs and medication administration, which I have personal experience with one of my previous dogs. My last 3 dogs lived to be 18 or more years old. I even had a Westie that had Addisons Disease. I was told she would not live more than a couple of years, but with daily medication and lots of extra care, she lived to be 19 years old. Whether I am walking your dog or providing transportation, I remain vigilant for any signs of distress . I find great joy in discovering each pet's unique personality and ensuring they feel loved in their own environment. My responsible and empathetic approach ensures your companions are in excellent hands. I look forward to meeting your furry, feathered, or hoofed family members and giving them the dedicated attention they deserve. NOTE: For animal sitting at your home, I will need the flexibility to tend to my own pets and my elderly mother at my home. They will be short visits and I can then return to your home. Im currently in between jobs and available any hours. Once I find a position to close out my career, ill still be available outside of my work schedule. I am open to caring for your pet in my home, depending on type and size. I also have experience with dogs that require medication.
About: I have taken care of dogs all of my life, including friends and family pets. I have a mini Australian shepherd who I adopted and have had the last two years. I have extensive experience with taking care of animals large or small and will love your pets as much as you do. Pet care fits into my current work schedule, but I am able to drop in to check on animals before or after work. If you have specific times or other requests, please let me know. I care for other people's pets exactly how I would care for my own dog. I follow instructions/ any other requests a client may make.
“Max did a fantastic job taking care of our dogs! They were happy, healthy, and well cared for when we got home, and the house was just as clean as we left it. We had complete peace of mind while we were away and would definitely trust Max to watch them again. Highly recommend!”
About: With over 5 years of hands on experience in pet sitting, I’ve had the joy of caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, and small mammals. My services go beyond basic feeding and whatever needs. I schedule my day around the needs of the pets I care for, whether that means early morning walks, mid-day check-ins, or evening feedings and playtime. I carefully plan my week to ensure I can give each pet individual needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize trust, safety, and routine. I start by reviewing any care instructions provided feeding schedules, medication, behavior notes, and emergency contacts so I can follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible.
About: What sets me apart is the calm, consistent care I provide. I have experience with both energetic puppies and gentle senior pets, and I always tailor my approach to meet each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s playtime, medication, or just quiet cuddles, I treat every animal like they’re my own. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine since I have two cats of my own. Every day includes feeding, fresh water, cleaning the litter box, playtime, and making sure my cat is happy and healthy. I also make time throughout the day to give pets attention, exercise, and lots of love. My work schedule allows me to plan ahead so I can provide dependable care and stick to each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I provide loving care by following each pet’s routine, offering playtime, meals, and cuddles, while keeping their space clean and comfortable, whether at home or theirs.
“We and our four dogs all agree that Brittany is awesome. She bonded with them all very quickly, even our 95 pound Doberman. Our dogs’ personalities and inter-pack squabble sometimes pose challenges. But Brittany had no problems with them. We provided very detailed written instructions about the house and dogs, including the administration of medicine to one dog twice a day, and she followed those instructions to the letter. She was diligent about the security of our home, and kept it clean despite the amount of dog hair that our four dogs generate each day. We can’t recommend her highly enough.”
“Arianna was wonderful, and Piper seemed to really warm up to her and enjoy herself while we were gone. We're thankful for the communication and that the house was left clean after her stay. We will look forward to hiring Arianna again in the future!”
“Lucy was a great sitter for our two dogs! We had peace of mind for the entirety of our vacation that Adelaide and Spencer were being taken care of and loved. When I need a sitter again, Lucy will be the first person I ask!”
About: I have always had a special place in my heart for animals. It is our responsibility as humans to take the best care of them. Every dog is special and deserves to be attended to appropriately. I am a Waco local and student at MCC studying to become a teacher. I’m currently working part time most weekdays until 6 pm. I can take appointments starting at 6:30 which is perfect during this Texas heat. I wouldn’t mind doing later walks when the weather is cooler. I will always make sure your pet is healthy and happy! My goal is to take extraordinary care of your pet and make sure it has everything it needs
About: I have a year of hands-on experience caring for dogs as a volunteer at the humane society. I am Fear Free certified and have received extensive training in handling and working with dogs to ensure their well-being and comfort. I prioritize their well-being by dedicating time each day to ensure they are happy, entertained, and have all their necessities met. My flexible evening schedule allows me to accommodate their needs, even with last-minute changes. As a passionate pet lover, I am dedicated to providing exceptional care and attention to your beloved pets. Trust me to treat them as if they were my own, ensuring their happiness, health, and well-being every step of the way.

FAQs for House Sitting - China Spring
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in China Spring on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 163 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across China Spring. 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 China Spring 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 China Spring 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 China Spring 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 China Spring. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% 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.
