“Laura is extremely attentive and observant. I have a pup with allergies and she is very diligent about his skin regiment, medications and any other steps she can take to help alleviate his discomfort!”
“Ava was communicative & accommodating throughout the weekend! She informed me when there was a family matter that came up and communicated a plan with me to cover a day when needed. My flight was delayed and pushed a day back which led to me getting back late and Ava offered to care for my pets that morning as well.”
“Where has Laura been all our lives!! She is by far our absolute favorite person to house sit and stay with our Greyhound and German Shepherd. They both fell in love with her right away. She gave 3 updates every day with plenty wonderful pictures. Our dogs were smiling from ear to ear in everyone of them. She left the house in the exact way we left it in. From kitchen to bath and guest room, tip top! I'd give 6 stars 🌟 if I could!! Thank you!!”
“This was my first time using Rover. Maddyn was great with my pets. She was easy to communicate with. She sent pictures and updates. She asked questions when needed. She brushed Bear and Dakota, shook out their beds. She swept and bought the mail in everyday. She let me know I received a package that had to be refrigerated and she put it in the fridge for me before I even had a chance to let her know about it. I will use Maddyn again!”
About: I have experience caring for my neighbors’ dogs, helping with feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pup is energetic and loves playtime or prefers calm companionship, I provide patient, reliable, and personalized care. I’ll treat your dog like my own, keep you updated with photos and messages, and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I have a flexible routine that allows me to provide loving and attentive care for pets. I work part-time and occasionally travel, but when I’m home, I spend most of my time taking care of my home and my two cats. Since I’m often home, I’m able to provide pets with companionship, attention, playtime, and a comfortable environment. I would love the opportunity to help other pet owners by caring for their animals when they need someone they can trust. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe and happy while you’re away. I will provide reliable care, regular updates, and treat every pet with the same love and patience I give my own. In my home: I have a spacious home with multiple empty rooms and a fenced yard, providing a safe and comfortable environment for pets. I understand that every animal has different needs, so I can create a calm, separate space if needed. I have two cats of my own, and if they do not get along with a visiting cat, I can safely keep the guest cat comfortable on the second floor with a room, a window, and everything they need, while still providing plenty of love and attention. In your home: I will care for your pets while respecting your home and your routines. I will follow your instructions carefully and will not touch or use anything that I am not allowed to. My priority is to keep your pet comfortable, maintain their normal routine, and leave your home clean and respected.
“Jasmine was great with our 4 month old German shepherd Athena who can be a little weary of strangers. We had never left her and were so nervous but Jasmine was amazing with her and sent us updates and pictures and videos. Highly recommend her and will book her again!”
“Madison was great with our dog and cat. We received multiple updates every day including pictures which we loved! You can tell our babies were loved and cared for! Already have our next time with Madison booked! Thank you for taking such good care of them!”
“Jayla was truly the best pet sitter I could have asked for! She was incredibly communicative the entire time and constantly kept me updated with photos of my fur baby, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear my pet was well cared for and loved. On top of that, she left my home spotless. I couldn’t have had a better experience and will absolutely be using her again in the future. Hope (my pup) adores Jayla! Highly recommend! 😊”
“Shannon was great with our 1 year old lab, Baker. She stayed over night while we were away for the weekend. She sent multiple updates and pictures each day!”
“Nitya was great, super flexible and communicative! She sent lots of pictures / updates. She was very attentive to Diesel which is all I could ask for. Would definitely hire again!”
“We were very happy with Jasmine. From the moment she entered the house for her meet & greet, it was obvious how much she enjoys the dogs/pups & that Chloe would be in good hands. We will definitely rotate the two wonderful Jas(z)mine's as needed & feel at peace knowing we have people we can turn to and trust when needed. I do highly recommend her (but hope she doesn't get too busy for us! 💖”
“Marisol was great!! She provided timely updates and pictures, and she was very respectful of my home. I would definitely recommend and use her as a house sitter again 😊”
“Crystal has watched our pets in our home a few times and she never disappoints! Our dogs and cats love her and she always sends the cutest pics while we’re gone. We trust her with our diabetic dog and we don’t have to worry about her while we’re away. She always leaves the house in tip top shape. We highly recommend using her services!”
“Bryanna was amazing with my pups! One was nervous and anxious to be with new people but she was so patient and welcoming. Dogs felt at ease very quickly. Her communication was amazing. Couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“Parker was INCREDIBLE! My sitter backed out last minute and Parker stepped in on short notice. So easy to communicate with and truly cared for my dogs as if they were his own. I 100% recommend and plan to ask Parker to watch my dogs in the future.”
About: Pet Care Experience I’ve been a dog owner and animal lover since I was a child, giving me a lifelong passion for caring for pets. I have hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, including senior dogs who require extra patience, attention, and gentle care. I am also comfortable administering medications and following specific care instructions to ensure your pet stays healthy and safe. What Sets Me Apart What makes me different is my genuine love and dedication to every pet I care for. I treat each animal like family, paying close attention to their unique needs, routines, and personalities. Whether it’s providing extra comfort to senior dogs or ensuring medications are given properly, I focus on dependable, compassionate care you can trust. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a mom to a 2-month-old and a part-time student studying to become a medical assistant, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around both my responsibilities and the pets I care for. I’m already used to maintaining a consistent routine, which helps me stay organized and dependable for feedings, walks, playtime, and medication schedules. Caring for pets blends seamlessly into my week, and I make sure each pet gets the attention, love, and reliability they deserve. I care for pets in your own home by keeping their routine as consistent as possible to help them feel safe and comfortable. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care needs. I provide plenty of attention, affection, and supervision while making sure your home is respected and kept clean. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and can administer medications when needed, always making sure pets are comfortable and well cared for. I stay attentive to any changes in behavior or health and keep you updated for peace of mind while you’re away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Deer Park
Yaritza was absolutely incredible! She came over the morning of our trip to spend time with our pups and go over their routines and everything they needed. Throughout our time away, she kept us updated on how they were doing, which gave us so much peace of mind. She truly went above and beyond! When we got home, we found that she had even changed the sheets on the bed she used and put the ones she slept on in the wash. Such a thoughtful gesture! We couldn’t have been happier with the care she provided. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the animals she watches. We loved having Yaritza take care of our pups and will absolutely be booking with her again! Highly recommend!
We are so happy with the kind of service Lindsay gives to our dog and our home. Not only was she incredibly conscious and communicative with us while we were away, we came back to a home that looked like we never left. This is the kind of person you want to entrust your animal and home with. We have another trip planned next month and know that we will have a sense of peace while we are gone for an extended time. Thank you girl for being the best sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Deer Park is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $67 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. 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 Deer Park 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 Deer Park 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Deer Park 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.
