“Leah did great with our babies! 4 cats and 1 dog is a large ask, so we were very happy to receive updates that everyone was doing well. Leah had great communication, did great with following feeding schedules and provided timely check ins. Will definitely be booking with Leah in the future!”
“Gina is so great!! I’ve had her do several drop-ins for my boys and even house sitting over the weekend, and she has such great communication every time. She’s so loving with my babies that are a little high maintenance. So thankful to have her!!”
“Sydney was absolutely wonderful! Before our appointment, she took the time to meet Mona, get familiar with our area, and understand all of her needs. On the day of the appointment, she was punctual, and kept me updated throughout, which I really appreciate it. Most importantly, Mona was so happy to spend time with her! I highly recommend Sydney and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Thank you Sydney!!!”
About: I have always loved animals of all kinds, and I will ensure your furry friends are treated as if they were my own. I have always lived with cats and dogs and have cared for all sorts, from low maintenance "living plants" to buddies who need extra care and support due to age or ailment. I have an extremely flexible schedule so I can adapt to whatever routine you and your pets are used to, whether that's early morning walks or late night feedings. I can do it all with ease. I will abide by any and all rules you have for both your house and your pets and I will make sure they are followed to the strictest interpretation.
“Elisa was very attentive to our 5 dogs while my sister and I were away! She made sure to send lots of pictures and videos, and was really responsive whenever I had questions or wanted to check in.”
About: Hello ! ( been booked twice on here and been a 10/10 experience so far!) My name is Detra! I live in Katy Texas! Been living in Katy for 7 years now! I had my first dog sitting job 3 years ago ! I work in childcare as a babysitter so I babysit and dog sit. I dog sit for one family and it was the best experience ever! I loved to play with the dogs and watch them while the family would go out of town every month. It became my second home. They ended up moving out of town so I’m looking for new opportunities in the Katy area to dog sit I miss it so much as a second job/hobby! I am currently working in childcare so I work Monday through Friday but I can come on my lunch break feed the dogs let them out to potty before I go back to work( if needed) . On the weekends I can be with the dogs. If I step out it won’t be for long but will definitely be there and play and spend time with the pups. Whenever I go to my clients home I’m willing to work with them whatever they need I will most definitely do and work with my clients.
“Monic was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING with all six of our furbabies (3 cats and 3 dogs)! We had never left them with anyone other than family, but she went above and beyond to make sure they were well-taken care of and that she kept us informed of how they were all doing daily! We will be booking her for ALL of our future vacations because our babies were happy and she just did such a magnificent job with them!!! 1000% recommend her!!! ❤️”
“I couldn’t be happier with the job that was done for me. From start to finish she was reliable and paid great attention to detail and took exceptional care of my pet. I always leave and return stress free knowing Tamanda is here. Thank you…”
“This was my first time using Lisa to house sit but definitely not the last. She was responsive and took excellent care of my three dogs ranging in age from 6 months to 16 years old. I received detailed updates and lots of pictures. This has been one of my best experiences with Rover and I have been using it for many years. Lisa is excellent!”
About: Hi y’all! I’m Jackson, and I am a huge animal lover. I’ve lived with at least 2 dogs my entire life, and I now have 3 dogs waiting for me back home in Houston. My animals received many, many walks while under my care. I’ve dog sat for countless neighbors, family friends, and strangers, and I’m no stranger to scoopin’ some poop. My oldest pooch was 18 years old, and I’m more than aware of the stubbornness that age brings along. I’ve raised many puppies too, so I’m familiar with the nuance of tender yet firm care. I’d love to get to know and provide top-notch care for your animals, if you’d let me! I am a full time student at UTSA. I have class on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, so Tuesdays, Thursdays, and weekends are more than often available. I try to visit home once a month to spend time with my family, including my dogs, so I’d love to fill this canine void I experience here in San Antonio. I have been the owner and the stranger to untrusting dogs, so I’ve gathered the best way to approach these kind of animals from both sides. I have no issue with getting on their level, exercising patience, or crating. I pick up on mannerisms and comfort levels easily, and I can adapt to the needs of each animal efficiently.
“Amazing! Jess took care of our three dogs, a 13Y F/ 4Y M/ 7Y M, while we were away for a weekend trip. They range in personality and in needs and she was able to take care of them all well. We hope she’s free the next time we plan a trip given we’d definitely rebook her for overnight stays.”
“jasmine was exactly who i needed for my sweethearts. she listened and took the time to understand each and they both enjoyed her attention and time very much. i'm super happy knowing they were safe, happy, and enjoyed their time with someone i could trust. for my next trips, definitely rebooking! she followed the schedule, asked questions; and quickly picked up their personalities.”
“Absolutely sweetheart!! I trusted her with my two polar opposite dogs and she did absolutely amazing!! Stayed with them all day so they didn’t have to be in a cage all day. She was very responsive and send updates throughout the day. 10/10 would recommend and rebook again!!”
“We immediately liked Dee upon meeting her. Warm and personable, she was wonderful with our two small dogs, staying in our home while we were gone over Memorial Day weekend. One dog has special needs and requires pills three times per day and eye drops twice per day. We greatly appreciated Dee's trustworthiness and follow through in taking care of what the dogs needed while they were in her care. The house looked great upon our return, as if she hadn't even been here. She also communicated well with us. We would love to have Dee back in future, and we look forward to it.”
“Allison was amazing with our girls Milli and Maxi. She was responsive with all her replies, our special requests and we felt at ease with Allison taling care of our girls at home. The babies always had big smiles and were always very relaxed. Thanks for all the updates and a great job all around. The girls look forward to her next visit.”
“Hannah house sat for me while I was on vacation, and she took great care of my kitty! She made sure to play with him and keep him company, and she sent me photos of him. He loved having her watch him! I definitely recommend Hannah for anyone who needs a cat sitter!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Cinco Ranch is $45

Chad did a great job taking care of our animals while we were away. He consistently communicated and sent lots of pictures to ease our minds. When he was out of the house, he put pet videos on the tv for them and made sure to give them a lot of play time and attention. We look forward to working with Chad again!

Lilian was amazing with our babies and our home. She was attentive, and responsive, always ensuring we got pictures and updates about their day to day. My dog is dog reactive when on leash, and has a pretty extensive training routine; Lilian did great at following all of our instructions and keeping up with their training and routine. Our animals loved having her and Truffle (her dog) over. Thank you for taking care of our babies so well!
We were so happy to find Tuongvi for our two girls. Our elder dog, Peggy, has several medical conditions that require specific and timely care. Our younger dog, Jordan, has a lot of anxiety and distrust new people. Needless to say, we had specific needs and concerns. Tuongvi was fantastic! She came by for several meet-and-greets to make sure that our girls would be comfortable with her. Her regular, daily photos showed us how happy and comfortable our girls were with her and her partner. In fact, I am pretty sure our girls went looking for them the night we came home! We will definitely rebook Tuongvi again, and we highly recommend her.
Dakota is definitely our new favorite Sitter!! She was so sweet to come a day before and meet the dogs and run through everything, and the puppies immediately took to her. She has a lot of experience working with dogs and it definitely shows. She was very attentive to all our dogs needs and was very communicative sharing photos and updates while we were gone, which was so appreciated. It’s much less stressful leaving the dogs when you’re confident and comfortable with who you’re leaving them with. She stayed in her home with our dogs so their routine did not change and they were happy the entire time. 10 out of 10 would recommend Dakota every single time.

FAQs for House Sitting - Cinco Ranch
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Cinco Ranch on Rover is $39.98 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 3,232 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cinco Ranch. 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 Ranch 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 Ranch 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 Ranch 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.

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.
