Kristina was the best sitter we could have gone with! Kristina was reliable, had great communication, and made us feel comfortable every step of the way! Coming home we could tell our kitties were taken very great care of. I highly recommend picking Kristina to be your sitter!

About: Cozy area, lots of attention, run with dog, walk around yard, can meet my dogs! Lots of playtime, food & water, outside time. I’ve owned dogs for over 10 years in my family, I’ve dogsat before in a clients home for a week, whom was also a diabetic, so I had to also give insulin. I am a huge dog lover, and always love being around them. We can go to dog parks, take plenty of walks around the neighborhood, and have great treats! I hope to provide great hospitality for your dog or dogs, and have them enjoy their time just as much as I would be. By letting me watch your dogs, I will make sure we all have the best time together! **please ask about availability during the week as the options on here aren’t the best** I have a full time job during the week.. On weekdays I am usually available on Mondays after 6pm, Tuesdays after 5pm, and Fridays after 5pm! Weekends vary, I’ll do my best to keep my calendar updated! It depends on what the client wants me to do to care for them! Making sure they go to the bathroom, hanging out with them inside, taking them for a walk, etc. overall, I like to make sure the pet(s) are getting attention and being entertained.

About: I enjoy cats and dogs as I have had my own, currently pet sit for my roommates cats while she’s on vacation. Cuddle puddles are my favorite pastime Evenings and weekends are preferred, can be flexible. I can do drop ins anytime past 6pm on the weekdays and anytime on the weekends. Emergency calls can also be arranged. I care for pets by slowly introducing myself, first by smell then when comfortable, by touch. I give treats when warranted, but ensure no over feeding/snacking. Lastly I cuddle with pets who are most comfortable.

About: I’ve been around animals since I was a child, whether they were family or friends or my own pets, I made sure to make myself available when they needed me. My experience includes dog sitting, dog walking and even taking care of medication. I’m currently finishing up college so I am available before and after my classes with any availability on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. When summer starts I will be working part-time at an internship so I will have continued availability that I will update as soon as I can. I have one dog and one cat living at home with me. They are both older now but I’ve had them since they were babies. I am responsible for both animals, for example cleaning up after both of them, feeding them, taking my dog out 3x a day.

Lilian was an absolute joy to work with. My anxious staffy warmed up real quick and ended up having the least amount of stress ever while I was traveling. Lilian went above and beyond for my pup; reading stories, plenty of attention, and giving lots of love to make sure my pup was loved and cared for. Your furry friend will be in great hands!

Mona is extremely professional and has been very easy to work with. She treats our puppy Mia as if she was her own. I always feel better after I get Mona’s updates in the morning on how our little girl is doing. I will continue to use Mona for daily drop-ins and I would refer her to anyone I know.

About: Dog walking is something I love to do. I take my dog (a boisterous standard schnauzer with quite the mind of his own!) on a walk everyday and love to help others out by giving their pup some exercise! I know that all dogs are unique, so I will take great care to make sure that I follow any instructions given and make this a great experience for the dog. I am good at reading a dog’s body language and know techniques to help calm a dog down if it gets overstimulated and will take necessary steps to ensure the dog’s comfort. I also know my way around the neighborhood, and can take the pup to new and exciting places (within the owners comfort level of course!) so they have a great time! As a recent college graduate, I have a very flexible schedule with ample time to dedicate to taking care of pets. I usually do morning and evening walks (as to avoid too high temperatures) and throughout the day can provide general pet care. I have a large, fenced in yard that pups can run freely in with my own dog. There is also a pool that they can use (under strict supervision of course!) and they have free access to all areas inside the house. We are also conscientious about making sure there are no dangerous things lying around (eg. socks, small items) that the dog can get to.

About: I’ve cared for animals almost my entire life and have experience with cats, dogs, kittens, senior pets, and high-energy breeds. As a multi-cat household owner myself, I understand how important it is to have someone patient, dependable, and attentive caring for your pets while you’re away. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, medications, litter maintenance, walks, playtime, enrichment, and giving pets the love and attention they need to feel safe and comfortable. I genuinely treat every animal like family and know how stressful it can be leaving them with someone new. I’m especially experienced with cats and understand different personalities, from shy and anxious pets to energetic attention-seekers. I work from home, with a very flexible daily schedule. I’m available virtually anytime throughout the day & night, as well as weekends. I understand animals all have different schedules and the importance of keeping to their routines. When caring for your pets I will be sure to follow any & all instructions so they stay on their daily routine while you’re away. I have a safe, fenced in, large backyard with plenty of room for daily activities.

About: I have had pets throughout my entire life. From dogs to cats to hamsters to turtles. I love to go on walks with my dog who is an 8-month-old Husky puppy. I also love to play with him, bring him to the park, and even go swimming with him. I also have a 1-year-old cat that I love to play with. I also do the feeding for both my dog and my cat so feeding your pet would not be an issue for me. I would love to help you with whatever you need whether it be dog sitting, dog walking, cat sitting, or even just a drop in to play with your pet. I have a pretty open schedule so feel free to reach out!

About: I’m a patient, motivated and fun-loving pet sitter. I grew up with 3 dogs, a cat and bird in my house. I’ve spent an excessive amount of time training, cleaning, feeding, and walking our family dogs. I am a proud owner of a Pitbull mix rescue who is very friendly and loving to other people and pets. I like to keep my dog busy and happy. I’m attentive, respectful and a friendly companion to pets. I can take care of pets of all ages, sizes and personalities. I am an energetic recent graduate with a flexible schedule and look forward to meeting your pets! Please feel free to contact me to discuss my services. I’m currently working full time 9-6 in the office but can take your pet for a late night walk on weekdays and can sit/walk on most weekends. I have one dog at home who is friendly with other pets and have a crate if needed. I also have plenty of rug space for your pup to take a nap.

Time and time again Maya has gone above and beyond to meet her client's needs. I had an unexpected 10+ day hospital stay. I called Maya that day and she accommodated all my needs. My cats adore her. She sends videos/pics/updates. Because of Maya, my hospital stay was less stressful knowing my babies were being cared for. She's so reliable, professional and truly cares about the pets she takes on. Thank you from the bottom of my ❤️

Sam was amazing with my dog, Jade! Jade is very high energy, and Sam never seemed to get tired of playing with her. She was super reliable, easy to communicate with, and clearly cared so much about Jade. I felt completely at ease while I was away, and Jade was happy, relaxed, and very well cared for when I got back. I would absolutely recommend Sam to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter! 🐾

Not only is Sam my partner, but she has so much love to give and is amazing with Milo. She loves him like her own and he reciprocates with loyalty. For the last year he has been doing things I’ve never seen him do in the 9 years he was alive prior; he makes her follow him outside to play after he does his business in the yard, waits outside her shower, runs onto her lap once we sit outside, checks to see if she’s with me every time I get home, sleeps guarding the bedroom door, and he finally can withstand a car ride! Oh, and Milo hates the groomer so Sam learned how to groom him so he can still see, run, play, and go #2 without his coat getting in the way.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Deer Park

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Deer Park on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 23,506 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Deer Park. 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 Deer Park 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 Deer Park. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
