“Tatyana was the BEST! She was so communicative and flexible. My dog was so at ease with her and she sent me lots of pictures throughout our stay. 10/10 recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was young. I am a dog mom of 3 and ready to share the love. I house trained my pups and taught them fun tricks. I even make them special treats because they deserve the best. I work full-time M-F however I have access to my home throughout the day, every 2 hours and I am available on the weekends. I also have a significant other that will be around to assist with care when needed. Your fur baby will be in great hands with us. My pets are my children, I care for them with love always. I will provide that same care for your fur baby as well. I have a large yard for your fur babies to do zoomies. I take my dogs to the dog park biweekly and I’d be more than happy to have your pups join. Any instructions or special situations you request for your fur baby will always be followed and never judged or neglected. We are an animal loving home and will treat your fur babies as if they are our own when they are with us.
“Ivi did such a great job watching our pups! She was with them for 2 weeks and sent lots of pictures that they looked very happy and well loved in. She was very responsive any time we reached out and also went above and beyond caring for our home. Thank you Ivi!”
“I’m selective to say the least when finding care for our fur babies, especially now that our 12-yr old pup has various health issues. Our baby girl requires insulin shots x2/day and needs to relieve herself every couple of hours. Did I mention she’s not a fan of said shots and stubborn to boot? And this is where Tory comes in to ease every worry and the crazy guilt we had about leaving her. She was an utter rockstar; I couldn’t have put together a more perfect dog sitter from scratch. Tory followed their routine to a T, and she provided consistent updates and pics. Her communication and quick responses were superb, bar none. And while 100% not expected at all, she cleaned the bed sheets and towels making our return home even less stressful. I want to keep her on retainer 😂 In all seriousness, she was a blessing and just what the doctor ordered for us to have a relaxing vacation while knowing our girls were well taken care of. We can’t give Tory enough praise ♥️”
“LOVED! Was the first time I’ve used Courtney or anyone out side of family in years and I felt comfortable since day one and the pictures of my boys smiling throughout the whole stay just made it better! Will absolutely reach out to Courtney for my future needs”
“This is our second time for Ashley to work with our fur babies. The pets remembered her and immediately were at ease. She spends quality time with them, takes care of their meds, walks, and cuddles. We arrived home to clean critters with cute collar bows and a clean house. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely call again!”
“Jennifer was absolutely amazing! She cared for my 4 dogs as though they were her own. She was very communicative and I couldn’t be happier! I will definitely be using her in the future for my babies! Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities since I was young. I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely passionate about animals. I treat every pet like family and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, fresh food and water, and a safe, comfortable environment. I understand that every pet has different needs and routines, and I’m happy to follow your instructions closely. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, playtime, walks, feeding, or extra attention while you’re away, you can count on me to provide loving and reliable care. ❤️🐶 I’m a stay-at-home mom, and now that my child has started pre-K, I have plenty of time during the day to care for your pets. I’m available for daytime drop-ins, walks, playtime, feeding, and boarding. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to give your pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I have a secure fenced yard and two friendly dogs who can provide companionship for pets who enjoy being around other dogs. I’m also able to keep pets separated when needed and can crate your dog if requested. I’ll follow your pet’s routine and care instructions carefully, and I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. 🐾❤️
“Chelsea was AMAZING! She sent updates everyday with pictures included. Loved on our cats as well as our dog. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter with Chelsea and will definitely be using her again!!”
“Ashlyn did an amazing job watching over our pets and home including watering our plants. Our dog loves her. She is reliable and communicates well, and also sent frequent updates and photos. It gave our family peace of mind knowing she was taking care of things. She left our house tidy and we would be glad to have her back anytime.”

“This was our first time using Rover and Gisselle was great! We really appreciated the photos and videos she sent while we were gone as this was our first time leaving our puppy and cat with someone for a long time. Will be using her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of furbabies my whole life, as I get older I have more experience and more opportunities to do with them. I love having the opportunity to take care of them and I love when the owners are comfortable enough to trust me with them. Everytime I take care of my brothers pit he absolutely loves it since he gets so spoiled rotten lol. After a hot walk I tend to make natural eatable frozen pops for them, and after dinner he gets play time outside with me. I treat my furbabies like if their a child/baby since that’s how I view them. It comes straight from my heart and I’m very genuine and patient with them! Im currently not working, so im available throughout the week for whoever furbabies needs company! Im also sometimes available on weekends just depends, but doesn’t hurt to ask since im willing to cancel unimportant plans if someone needs a sitter! If it’s my house, I have a fenced backyard with a pool therefore, I don’t have much yard. I’m right on the golf course though, that has a trail I could take them on for a nice walk so their not always in the house. I have female animals, 1 small dog and 1 cat both very friendly, but shy lol so they probably won’t play together. I also have a upstairs that I could use as a extra open area for anything, I recommend it for the pups that are in creates since with my upstairs, they don’t need to be since I have a gate and pee pads I could put down so their not locked up if they don’t need to be. If it’s the owners house I’m open to anything, as long as I have rules and exceptions I know to follow just ask and tell me! I’ll make sure your furbabies feel at home no matter the place. :)
About: I've been around animals all my life. Just recently lost our family cat of 14 years. My voice changes when I see a fur baby. They can cheer anyone up if your not in a great mood.

About: Safely cared for multiple pets at once while prioritizing their individual needs, comfort, and well being. I have always loved animals and pets, huge passion. I work at Aquatica Seaworld part time so please provide at least a few days to one week notice so I can accommodate your schedule.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Crosby
Paige was great! We love a lot of photos when we’re on trips and she was sure to send us a bunch. As far as preparedness I’d say she was the most prepared sitter we’ve had. She had a sheet for us to fill out with all of our preferences which I thought was so smart! Very respectful of our home. 10/10

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Crosby on Rover is $26.64 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Crosby 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 Crosby 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 Crosby 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.
