“This is my first time trusting someone to care for Blu. Amanda exceeded ALL of my expectations. I believe that dogs can sense souls of people that they meet, and Blu ADORED Amanda! She was so gentle and sweet with him. She was attentive to his needs and asked plenty of questions about the care she needed to provide. She sent frequent check-ins and pictures. If you want the best in care for your pup, she is your first choice! 10 stars! Thank you Amanda!”
“I will always reach out to Stephanie when I need someone ro watch my babies for me! I know without a doubt that she loves and cares for them just as I would! She has amazing communication and always leaves our house super clean. 10/10 would recommend! 😊”
“Sarah was very accommodating and took great care of the dogs while we were away. She communicated throughout her visit and sent us some pics! Very grateful for a good experience with Sarah!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and taken care of small high energy dogs, to large German shepherds. I love walking and spending time around animals! I’m currently a student two days a week and go to clinicals three other days so usually after 5 pm most days I can come by and walk and hang out with your pets! On weekends I’m available all day to come stop by. I’ve always taken care of pets I’m watched very well and will follow whatever care instructions are given no matter how complicated. I will help enforce any training started or try my best to help them learn new skills as well.
About: I’ve had several pets over my entire life, and truly believe a pet makes a home. I have experience pet sitting for family and friends, and want to expand my care to your fur babies. I am only focused on cat-sitting 🐈⬛!! I have experience taking care of kitties, adult cats, and cats who require medication on a schedule. I am no stranger to a dirty litter box and will make sure that your cats have a clean space to do their business; sicknesses in cats can be caught early in the litter box so i’ll be very attentive to any abnormalities. *My calendar is updated frequently. My schedule is flexible and can be adjusted to your pet care needs, please reach out for any questions!! I have an open schedule, for weekdays and weekends. I am also available during holiday season. I have online college classes, but they do not require me to show up in person meaning I can be with your pets anytime! All cats are different, and their owners know them best, so I will follow your instructions and take care of your kitties the way you would! I will be respectful of you and your cat's home and will prioritize respecting your kitties' boundaries to hopefully establish a strong connection with them.
“After I had to leave for a family emergency, Michelle was able to watch my dogs within hours, and did such a great job despite my lack of in depth instruction. My boys looked happy in every picture and knowing they were well taken care of gave me the peace of mind that allowed me to be present in my situation. I cannot thank her enough”
About: I have nearly three years of hands-on experience working in dog boarding facilities, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My responsibilities included feeding, walking, administering basic care, monitoring behavior, and ensuring each dog felt safe and comfortable in my care. I also have five dogs of my own, so caring for dogs is truly a part of my everyday life. I currently work with dogs daily, which has helped me develop strong skills in handling, patience, and understanding dog behavior. I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and I’m currently pursuing college with the goal of becoming a veterinary professional. Because of this, I take pet safety, routine, and well-being very seriously. I treat every dog as if they were my own and always aim to make each walk a positive, stress-free experience. I work full time, but I offer dog walking and drop-in visits on my days off, as well as before and after my work shifts. I’m happy to accommodate early morning or evening walks and will always communicate clearly about my availability to ensure consistent, dependable care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routine and instructions closely. I prioritize safety, clean environments, secure leashes, and constant supervision. I monitor behavior, ensure pets are comfortable, and provide updates for peace of mind.
“Kaitlynn was very communicative and did an excellent job taking care of our dog and two cats. She worked hard to get our dog out for exercise and enrichment. We definitely recommend her and will ask her to help us out in the future.”
About: I have had animals my whole life. I have been in the veterinary field as a kennel technician for a little under a year. I have experience with dogs, cats, and exotics of all ages and health stages. I’m currently working full time at an animal hospital. I work Monday through Friday In the morning through early afternoon. I spend my time outside of work with my animal at home. I have open availability and can be flexible to your pets schedule! :) I am very responsible, respectful, and will listen and stick to your pets schedule. I always make sure your pets safety is my first priority while on walks or staying with them! I am available to answer any questions you have.

About: I believe animals are pure expressions of love. 💗 I care for every pet with gentleness, patience, and affection, creating a peaceful space where they feel cherished. I have a flexible schedule and am available throughout the week. This allows me to spend quality time with your pets and give them plenty of attention. I have hard floors, a fenced yard, and plenty of space for pets to play and relax. I also have a medium-sized kennel available if needed. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable.
“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 ♥️”
“This was my first time using Rover and my first time ever leaving Pete with someone I didn’t personally know, so I was definitely nervous. Emilee immediately made me feel comfortable and confident from the start. I was out of state for 5 days and she sent constant updates, which gave me so much peace of mind the entire trip. I just got back and Pete is happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience I would absolutely book with Emilee again and highly recommend her to anyone!”
About: I have taken care of many kinds breeds for about 10 years now and I have personally had different kinds since I was 10 years old. I’m currently available any day except Sunday because of my religion. I’m usually free on Fridays and Saturdays. During the week will work if need be. I’m pretty flexible when it comes to my schedule I take great care with other peoples pets as if they were my own. I currently have two large dogs, one German Rottweiler and one German Shepherd. They are my fur babies and I try to stay very active with both of them as well as other peoples pets unless they require otherwise

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Deer Park
Koryn was amazing! She took great care of our dogs and our house while we were away. She sent us regular updates on how the dogs were doing, which we really appreciated! We came home to happy pups and a clean house. Would definitely recommend her and would love to have her sit for us again!
Chelsey had a meet and greet with us before her stay, that was really appreciated! Chelsey was a great overnight house sitter with our pup, Ava. She made sure to send updates and pictures during her stay. She also kept us updated on her arrival and her departure times. Ava was happy and in a great mood when we arrived.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Deer Park is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $98 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.
As of October 2026, there are 3,000 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Deer Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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 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.
