“Gislene is amazing!!! She made us feel like she loved our two pets like her own. She is very communicative and sends awesome updates and sweet videos. Gislene is top notch ❤️”
“Bethany was great! This is my first time on rover and she was it seamless. We did a meet and greet prior to the actual booking which made me feel so much better. Sent updates and pictures of our pups the whole time. Will definitely book an overnight with Bethany again!”
“Taylor is the absolute best. HIGHLY recommend. She was so great about giving updates on our dog the entire time and treated panda as her own! She will definitely be my go to girl moving forward! Taylor went above and beyond all expectations. Thank you so much, Taylor!!!”
“Valerie was awesome. The day we were supposed to have our meet and greet I had to take Gidget to the vet because she was not eating. The vet wanted to keep her a few hours which pushed back out appointment time. Valerie was very understanding and flexible. Valerie was awesome with each of our dogs who have very different personalities. She was able to give Gidget the medication the vet has prescribed. Valerie contacted me to see if she could try something to help Gidget to eat. She went over and beyond to take care of our girls. Valerie contacted me daily to let me know how each of the girls were doing. Valerie was also very respectful of our home. I am very grateful for her!”
“Joanna was great with our girls especially so last minute. We arranged a meet and greet and when she got to our place she immediately sent an update and photos. The peace of mind we felt was priceless.”
“Laura was a fabulous sitter. She was great with communication, and most importantly took care wonderful care of my pups! I would definitely recommend her to anyone needing services and will be a repeat customer in the future!”
“Alexis was wonderful with my dogs! And they had the best time with her as their caretaker. I received daily photos and updates. My home was exactly as I left it upon my return. There is nothing more nerve racking than leaving your treasured Pets and your home with someone and then going out of state. I will request Alexis’ services again and recommend her to my friends as well. She is profesional, loves what she does and respects and listens to the pet owners instructions to ensure the need of the pet are met. Thank you Alexis.”
About: I offer a calm, clean, and supervised home environment for boarding. My fully fenced backyard provides a safe space for potty breaks and outdoor play, and the covered screened patio gives pets a comfortable place to enjoy fresh air while staying protected from the weather and insects. I also have a quiet dining room that can be sectioned off for pets who need their own comfortable, low-stimulation area. I follow each pet’s normal feeding, exercise, medication, and care routine as closely as possible. I work full time and my available days do change at times. I would love to talk to you and see if my schedule works with yours. I have a chihuahua mix. I do have a fenced in backyard. I also, walk client's dogs around the neighborhood and nearby dog friendly parks.
“Daisy did a terrific job with our 2 girls. She gave them so much attention. She sent updates and pictures everyday. She even called when she noticed Pepper was having problems with her ears. And took her to the Vet for us. We highly recommend Darsy. We will definitely use her again. If we could we would give her 10 stars!”
“This is my first time using Rover and Amber; I will never put my dog in any boarding/pet hotel/ doggy daycare again!! Amber did such a wonderful job with Milo, he got personal attention, long walks and kept his schedule all in his own home. When we boarded him, it would take a couple of days just to get “Milo” back to his normal self, but when we got back today he was his normal self thanks to Amber’s excellent care. Amber also took great care of our home while we were away, keeping everything neat and clean, including laundering the bath towels and bedding used while staying here. Any apprehension we initially had using Rover for the first time has been put to rest, and Amber is a great choice to care for your pet and your home!!”
“This was my first time leaving my kitty alone and he made me feel so comfortable! I was updated regularity with pictures, his communication was great, and he was able to give my baby medicine no problem. I also came home to a clean house after he house sat. Communication was great and I will definitely rebook next time I need a sitter!”
“Christine was awesome! She was so good with our little guy and helped him settle into a new place. I booked way in advanced and she was the first sitter that did not cancel and checked in with me. 10/10 would recommend!”
About: I've owned dogs my whole life and have become skilled in caring for pets. I currently have a Golden Retriever named Charlie and would love to have doggy friends to visit! I have cared for many types of dogs during my life and have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperments. I work everyday with nine hour work days (7am to 4pm) Monday through Thursday, with an eight hour day (7am to 3pm) on every other Friday giving me a free day every other week. I make time every morning and evening to take our dog Charlie on a walk. I make sure they get daily exercise letting them go for walks and I also have a small fenced in backyard. When I am home I will provide them with playtime l as well. I will provide scheduled feedings or space for free feeding dogs as well.
“My family and I haven't been away in a long time, largely because it's always hard to find just the right person to look after our 2 adult dogs. We found Jessica on Rover and, after an initial meet and greet, we knew she was just the right fit for our lovable Lab and anxious German Shepherd. She sent us updates and pics each day we were gone and just made it so much easier for us to be away from our fur babies. Highly recommend Jessica!”
About: I love dogs with all my heart, they're so fun and every dog has their favorite spots to go or favorite toy to play with and I will treat them with unlimited hugs and belly rubs! I love getting to know dogs because every one is individually special in their own way and I'm here to cater to all their needs possible! I used to have a big British Bulldog that I took care of during my middle school and high school years. Which I miss dearly, but I just love all dogs in general by their unconditional love and energy. Working part time, availability will change here and there but I keep my schedule updated on here so we can get you and your furry friends taken care of I have a fenced yard and a great neighborhood park nearby, plenty of space and I love being active with them so they'll be able to get some loose energy out too!
“Elizabeth was the best thing that happened for us as we were cancelled last minute by another sitter. She was definitely an upgrade. She went WAY above and beyond for our boy Samson. She took great care of him and loved him like family. He even got a couple baths while we were gone. She responded quickly to our numerous text messages and sent many pictures over our 10 day trip. Our house was tidy when we returned and we even had some home baked cookies on the counter. We will definitely use her to watch Samson in the future.”
About: I've been taking care of animals ever since I was young, from hamsters to fish to dogs and more. I've managed both calm and trouble making animals and have experience dealing with the full age range of pets due to my personal experience as a dog owner, and from my time volunteering as a foster home for dog shelters. I'm currently working part-time, and so I have an incredibly flexible schedule. I'm available for just about hour of day for any period of time. Taking care of animals has been my weekly norm since I was a kid, so it's just what I'm used to. I have a large fenced yard for pets to feel free and roam around, and I've a multitude of my own resources at home such as bowls, crates, and pens to be used as needed. I usually like to give a pet a feel of independence to wander however they'd like throughout the home and yard, but can easily step in if greater supervision is needed. I'm usually always in the same space as my animals.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Cinco Bayou
I would give Gislene 6 stars if I could. She was absolutely phenomenal. I am very anxious leaving our dogs when we travel & she made the experience so stress free. She had great communication, sent frequent updates, and put together the cutest picture and video collages for us. The dogs seemed so happy and comfortable in every picture and video she sent. Not only did she take great care of our dogs, but I think she left the house in even better shape than when she arrived. Everything was spotless when we arrived home. We will be recommending her to others and definitely use her if we need a dog sitter in the future.
Jess is amazing and we are so happy with choosing her for our pet sitter! She has been so amazing to send us photos and texts of our fur baby the whole trip. We have not left our pup with anyone overnight before this trip and Jess made it so much easier knowing she was so well taken care of. We would highly recommend her to anyone needing an in home pet sitter! She is adorable!
Karycelis was able to help me on very short notice with in-home sitting. She stayed in consistent contact, asked questions when needed, and gave me complete peace of mind that my dog was well taken care of while I was away. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter.
Darsy was great with our two pups! We decided on house sitting because our newest addition has been picky about other dog friends she meets. Darsy provided updates and photos daily and stuck to their routine. We will definitely be reaching out to Darsy in the future.
Margaret was absolutely phenomenal with our crew! I needed a last minute house sit for our 2 dogs and 2 cats and she exceeded my expectations! She shared updates and pictures several times a day and took excellent care of not only our furry gang but our house as well. It was neat as a pin upon our return and we were greeted by happy, smiling pups. We are so grateful we found Margaret!

FAQs for House Sitting - Cinco Bayou
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Cinco Bayou on Rover is $48.15 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 550 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cinco Bayou. 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 Cinco Bayou 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 Cinco Bayou 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 Cinco Bayou 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.

- 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.
