Christine was very good with my dog. He’s busy and anxious at times. But she was kind and loving to him. She also was able to help last minute as another sitter backed out, causing a fuss- she was helpful and a lifesaver.

Gracie was fantastic with our two cats while we were away. She provided exceptional care for them and communicated with us each time she checked on them. We had no concerns and would definitely recommend Gracie!

About: Have taken care of all dog size. For as long as I can remember. I’ve taken care of multiple dogs at the same time for multiple dog families. I’m working part time so very flexible on schedule. Very open to times on when your animal needs to use the bathroom or needs company. I have a very large yard where your animal can run around. And I’m near a dog park if needed. Very patient with your pet that may be more scared.

Megan did a couple drop-ins for my dog Milo and I have no complaints! She was willing to swing by over the weekend to meet him before she dropped in which was much appreciated. She is friendly and provides photos and great reports of how Milo is doing when she drops in. I hate to leave him home for so long but it gives me some peace of mind knowing that he has a new buddy to come visit him during the day. :)

Don't be afraid to reach out. When your fur babies are in my care, they will be treated and cared for as family.

About: Hello! I’m a dog lover and behavior-focused pet caregiver who believes every dog deserves to spend their time being themselves, feeling comfortable, and having fun! 🐶 3+ years of professional experience working with dogs in daycare & boarding settings 🏡 Experienced with a wide variety of breeds, personalities, energy levels, and behavior needs. 🐾 I have dogs of my own, so I understand that every dog is an individual and should be treated like family 🧠 Currently studying dog behavior and training and always learning more 👀 Strong understanding of canine body language and behavior, including recognizing signs of stress, discomfort, excitement, and relaxation 💕 I let your dog lead the way — whether they want to play, sniff, explore, cuddle, relax, or simply have some quiet time 🌿 I believe dogs should have choices whenever safely possible rather than being pushed into activities they aren’t comfortable with 🚫 Fear, pain, and intimidation have no place in my care. I use gentle, positive, and respectful handling with every pet My goal is simple: your dog gets to have a staycation that feels like it was made just for them. 🐾 I’m an online student and a freelancer, so I make my own schedule and I’ll have plenty of time for your furry friend! No need to worry about any schedule restrictions. Safety & well-being always come first — I closely monitor your dog, make sure their physical and emotional needs are met, and give them choices while keeping their safety a priority. I follow any and all instructions to a T and will always keep a close eye on your fur baby.

Mikayla was awesome! She was so easy to work with and very responsible. I would rebook her in a heartbeat whenever I travel again. She did an amazing job and even managed to take photos of my skittish cats. She kept the litter area impeccable. I recommend her 100%!

About: I’ve worked as a dog bather and receptionist at a grooming salon, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities.

I work at the Boys & Girls Club three evenings a week and have classes a few hours during the day, so I have plenty of time to care for pets around my schedule.

I’m used to balancing responsibilities, so I’ll make sure your furry friends get consistent attention and care. I follow your pet’s usual routine for meals, walks, and playtime. I make sure they’re safe, happy, and comfortable, and I’ll keep you updated while you’re away.

About: I have cared and loved many animals. I grew up on and around farms so I have worked with horses, cows, wolves, cats, dogs, ducks, and chickens. I have had a Great Dane that I had rescued from an abusive home. I am currently working full time M-F 7am to 530pm. I can work evenings and weekends. Soon I would like to work with animals full time instead of at my current job. My desire is to work the hours that pet owners need me when I start to build clientele. When I get enough clients my hopes are to extend to the business hours and do that full time. I do not want to quit my full time hours until I am able to help enough pets and their owners. I would love to care for pets by being able to take them outside of their homes for play by themselves or to a dog park. I would love for the pets to be able to be in the environment that works best for them. Some dogs do great in public with other dog or cat friends, while others may not enjoy that much stimulation. I would like to get to know the animal to find out the best fit for them. I would also like the pet parents to let me know what they feel is best for their fur baby. The enjoyment of the pets life is what I want to focus on so they can have the best care. I feel I would like to talk with the animal owner to see what environment works best for their animal.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Clear Lake

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 516 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Clear Lake. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Clear Lake stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Clear Lake. On Rover:

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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.
