“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!”
“This was our first time to have Tamanda over to pet/house sit for us and she did an amazing job. She took care of all the things I asked her to do and was very up front with me when she had to run errands. When we returned home, everything was just as I left it and of course the most important thing is that she took excellent care of my babies as I could tell when I got home. She put her heart into it!! Thanks again Tamanda. You Rock!!”
“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!!!”
“Super grateful for Cortney! She took awesome care of our two doggos while we were gone, and they were super happy and healthy when we came back. Cort sent lots of pictures and texts, and she was really great!”
“Karina did an outstanding job caring for our cats and went above and beyond throughout her stay. Even when our air conditioner broke during an intense heat wave, she handled everything with grace and professionalism, and left our home in immaculate condition, we couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter.”
About: Hi! My name is Detra! I’ve already been booked twice on Rover, and both experiences have been 10/10! I’ve lived in Katy, Texas for 7 years and absolutely love the area. I had my first dog-sitting job about 4 years ago, and I quickly fell in love with it. I worked with one wonderful family and cared for their dogs while they traveled out of town each month. I loved spending time with their pups, playing with them, and making sure they were happy and well cared for. It became like a second home to me! ❤️ The family eventually moved out of town, so I’m looking for new opportunities to dog sit in the Katy area. I truly miss having pet sitting as a second job/hobby and would love the opportunity to care for your pups! I currently work in childcare Monday–Friday, so I’m very comfortable with responsibility, routines, and caring for others. If needed, I can stop by during my lunch break to feed your dogs and let them out for a potty break before returning to work. On weekends, I’m available to spend more time with your pups. If I need to step out, it won’t be for long, and I’ll always make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and love. 🐶💕 When I care for your pets, I’m happy to work with their individual routines and whatever they need to feel comfortable. My goal is to give your pets the same love, attention, and care I would want for my own! 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.
“Michaela was amazing! She took such good care of our fur babies. She communicated very well and sent many updates. The house was even cleaner than when I left it. I would recommend Michaela to any friend.”
“Tiffany took excellent care of our little zoo. We asked her to take on a couple extra responsibilities and she gracefully agreed and did them well. Our dogs were calm and well adjusted upon our return. We would love to have her back again.”
“First time meeting Nelson and he was great! The babies loved him and were instantly comfortable. Which says a lot for my senior dog! He was personable, sent consistent updates, and always responded. He’s great!”
“Kassidy was great with my three dogs! She followed instructions very well and kept posted me with their pics🐶 I would definitely ask her to dog sitting my dogs again🫶🏻 Thank you, Kassidy🩷”
About: I have always been a huge animal lover. After I graduated college and settled down, I ended up finding the most fulfillment working with animals and providing them with excellent care and companionship. I currently have a decently open and flexible schedule every day, depending on where my kids are and what bookings are already made. Middays can fill up fast! I have experience with each and every temperament imaginable. I make sure to meet each client and their pet beforehand so that everyone feels comfortable with me being in their home. I love being outdoors and being active with dogs, as well as indoor visits just giving attention.
“I am SO GLAD I found Ericka. She did such an amazing job watching our little homestead and animals for two weeks. She took care of our dogs, chickens, turtle and cat!! Our home was very well taken care of. And my dogs were so comfortable and happy with her. She sent regular updates and messaged any issues right away. THANK YOU ERICKA!! We are so happy we found you, and hope to book you again!”
“Sandy took exceptional care of our two golden retrievers while we were out of town. This was the second time we trusted her, and he exceeded expectations again. She is dependable, conscientious, and genuinely loving with our dogs. We received regular updates, returned to happy, well-cared-for pets, and felt complete peace of mind throughout the trip. We highly recommend Sandy to anyone seeking reliable, compassionate dog care. Every interaction showed kindness, responsibility, attentiveness, and dedication.”
About: I’m a veterinary assistant/tech with hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages and needs. I’m comfortable with puppies, seniors, medications, and pets requiring extra care and attention. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I’m able to provide consistent, reliable care throughout the week. My flexible schedule allows me to give each pet plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I prioritize safety, comfort, and trust in every pet’s care. As a veterinary assistant/tech, I’m trained to recognize changes in behavior or health and provide attentive, responsible care in your home or mine.
“Fantastic job - highly recommend! My dog was extremely well taken care of and Elizabeth was super friendly and attentive. She did a “meet & greet” and kept us posted on how our dog was doing the entire time! I will definitely use her again!”
About: I absolutely love caring for dogs and have experience looking after them with lots of love, patience, and attention. Dogs truly are (wo)man’s best friend, and I’d be happy to give your furry family member the care, cuddles, playtime, and companionship they deserve! Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine because I live with dogs and care for them every day. I’m used to feeding, walking, playing with, and giving them plenty of love and attention. I have a fenced-in area where dogs can safely play and get some fresh air. I also have calm, friendly dogs who are comfortable around other pets. If you prefer your dog to stay in their own home, I’m also happy to provide care at your house so they can remain comfortable in their familiar environment.
“Danena was fabulous. She house sat both our dogs for a week long trip. Her communication with us throughout the trip was great and she sent us almost daily updates on the pups. Both dogs loved her and got daily walks. Additionally, she catered to each dogs eating needs. Very happy with her service.”

Crystal was an absolutely amazing housesitter for our lovely kitty Miku! For a 9 day trip I felt totally at ease putting him in Crystal’s hands, with daily updates, lots of playtime and it was clear Miku was very comfortable with her. Not to mention she followed all instructions and left our place spotless when we returned. I highly recommend her!! Thanks Crystal!
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.
Izzy was extremely flexible with our trip. We had a couple changes and she was able to accommodate them. She communicated well with us while we were gone by sending us updates and pictures. It was nice to know our 2 dogs and 2 cats were in great hands while we were gone. I would definitely recommend.
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!

The average cost of House Sitting in Cinco Ranch is $40 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $72 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 , 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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
