“Megan is AMAZING! She was 110% responsible and loving with my 2 dogs and in my home. When I returned from my trip my dogs were so relaxed, I've never seen them so content.....ever, after being gone. She walked them everyday and sent pics of them walking and later snuggling. Truly one in a million she is!”
“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!”
“Joanna was absolutely amazing. She stayed at my house with my dog and cat and they loved her! She sent pictures and updates everyday and my animals were so happy when we returned home. Would 100% recommend!”
“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!”
“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!”
“Amber is an incredible pet sitter! This was our first time leaving our three dogs with someone we didn’t know, and it was in our own home. She kept us updated daily with photos and videos, and our dogs were so happy and comfortable with her. We felt so relieved and were able to relax and enjoy our trip. We highly recommend Amber’s services and will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Alexis was above and beyond! She was extremely communicative and didn’t hesitate to ask amazing questions of how to care better for our pets! I recommend her with complete confidence that you will be pleased.”
About: Reliable and caring pet sitter with strong attention to detail, excellent communication, and a passion for keeping pets safe, happy, and well-cared for. With years of experience. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I work from home and maintain a very flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins, and I can easily adjust my schedule to meet each pet’s needs. This allows me to provide consistent attention, care, and companionship, ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and well-cared for. In my home, I provide a safe, spacious, and welcoming environment. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I make up for it with multiple daily walks and trips to the dog park twice a day for exercise and socialization. I also have two children and a friendly dog, so your pet will have plenty of companionship and feel right at home. In a client’s home, I follow your pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care—so they stay comfortable in their familiar environment.
“Hack was absolutely amazing ! He was very responsive, great communication and very knowledgeable about dogs ! My puppy Max loved his time with him and was treated with so much love and TONS of play time. I couldn't have asked for a better person to watch my fur baby! Will definitely be using his services again in the future ! Very reliable and great at what he does! Thank you so so much ! Can't wait to book again !”
“Would honestly rate higher if it were possible. We had to travel for my sister’s wedding right as Helene was strengthening in the gulf and Allie was ready, reliable, and just awesome. I didn’t worry about my babies with her and will use her every time we can.”
“Laura came through for me at the very last minute. My original sitter for the pets couldn’t make it. She was able to watch our dogs with not a lot of notification. I’m very thankful. She did a great job with communication and I would definitely recommend. Our dogs seemed to take to her immediately!”

“We had Jenna stay with Patch for five days while we went out of town. I was nervous, but Patch did wonderfully with Jenna! We received multiple updates daily with pictures of him on a walk, playing with toys, and relaxing in the hammock with Jenna. She let us know what his behavior was like. He looked happy and well-cared for, which greatly eased my anxiety of being away from him for so long. We came home to a fresh, clean house and a happy pup! SOOOO grateful for Jenna. Our trust has been well-placed with her. Highly recommend her!!”
“Madison is an excellent pet sitter and we would highly recommend her to anyone. She took amazing care of our dogs and kept us updated regularly with how they were doing while we were out at a concert. This was our first time using Rover, and we’re very pleased with the service.”

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.

Gislene was great! She went above and beyond to help my dog who takes daily meds and had a skin issue that she was able to help treat while I was away. She sent tons of pictures and was super communicative! She also left the house extremely clean. Definitely recommend!
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!
Andrea took care of my 2 elderly dogs the way I would! She is very organized, listens, and writes down everything you say about their needs. She asks questions for clarification and immediately responds to any concerns you have. She is punctual, caring, and i have never met a sitter who communicates so well with both messages and pictures. She’s incredible and definitely a star sitter ❤️🐶🐶❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Cinco Bayou on Rover is $48.15 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 563 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cinco Bayou. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
