“I requested full day dog sitting in my home when my dog had a foot injury and could not go to daycare. Our dog is a needy, older Vizla who still gets bursts of zoomy energy. He needed to be kept on the slower side for a few days and his bandaged foot needed to be kept dry. Morgane was fast to reply to my booking request and she came for a quick 20 min visit so I could meet her and she could meet my dog in advance so we were both comfortable. She was clear in the info and access she would need and sent reminders. She showed up on time and shared pictures when she arrived and when she left. Everything was in place in the house and my dog was a happy baby whose bandage was still intact. I will book Morgane again in the future.”
About: I've been taking care of cats, dogs, and koi since I was a kid. I am very knowledgeable about giving animals medication, walks, affection, playtime, and wet/dry food. I have always had love and compassion for all animals big or small. Whether it's an injured animal stuck in the middle of the road or a dog without it's owner, I always try my best to care for animals even if they aren't mine. I am available for daily drop-ins and overnights. I am always happy to discuss your specific needs and to make accommodations in accordance to your schedule. I always ensure my pets and the animals I care for get fresh food and water on a regular schedule. I regularly clean after my pets whether it's the litterbox or the backyard. Even when accidents happen I always make sure to keep their environment safe and clean. When it comes to exercise and play, walking my dog is no sweat and playing with my cats is always fun even for me. Finally, there is no shortage of affection when it comes to me. I love giving animals pets or gentle scritches. I can also read an animals body language when it comes to wanting space as well.
“Hailey took good care of Rocco while I was away, and he was happy and well when I returned. She handled his care as instructed, communicated when needed, and gave me peace of mind during my trip. Overall, I appreciated her help and would recommend her to pet owners looking for someone who is kind and capable with their pets.”
“We could not have asked for a better house and pet sitter! From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing our home and pets were in such caring, capable hands. Communication was excellent — we received regular updates, photos, and thoughtful check-ins that made us feel connected while away. We came home to a spotless house and happy animals. Natasha’s level of professionalism, reliability, kindness, and genuine care was truly exceptional. She really went above and beyond for us and managed everything so well. We would absolutely recommend Natasha to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their home and pets. Five stars is not enough — she exceeded every expectation, and we will happily book her again in a heartbeat.”
“Bronte did a great job watching my two dogs over night. She left everything in order at the house and the dogs really liked her from the moment she came through the door. I would highly recommend her for pet sitting.”
“Susan did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs and cats for the weekend. They were well cared for and well loved, as her adorable pictures showed. She was extremely trustworthy, a great communicator and went above and beyond caring for the animals and our house. We are so lucky to have found her and can’t wait to have her come again!”
“Mia is so wonderful! Our dog Huck typically gets pretty sad when we go out of town, but he instantly fell in love with Mia. We had a meet and greet and we could tell right away she was an animal lover, and Huck knew that too! Mia stayed at our house with Huck while we were away for a long weekend and she not only loved and snuggled him, but our house was spotless upon our return home. We so appreciated her caring for our fur baby and our home while we were away! She sent us photos and we were able to enjoy our time knowing Mia was watching over Huck and taking such good care of him. We will absolutely be using her again in the future!”
About: I have five years of experience providing dependable house and pet sitting for multiple families, including stays of up to three weeks at a time. I understand how important it is to know that both your pets and your home are in good hands while you’re away. I’ve cared for cats, dogs, and even a ferret! I provide loving, attentive care to every furry friend, while also taking care of household needs like watering plants, collecting mail, and keeping an eye on the home. My goal is to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving their families peace of mind. After a career as an engineer and geologist with the State of California, I’m happily retired and enjoying a flexible schedule. When I’m not fan-girling over rocks or spending time at the bowling alley, I’m probably fan-girling over someone’s furry friend! Retirement gives me plenty of time to provide attentive pet care, and I can accommodate most schedules, including daytime visits, evenings, weekends, and overnight stays. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable in your absence. I’ll treat them with the same patience, kindness, and care I would want for my own pets.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Del Rio Woods
Amanda is the best dog-sitter one could hope for! She understands and loves dogs. Very importantly, on each and every occasion we've had her watch Ollie, she is punctual (often a few minutes early!), and her communication to lock in a date, as well as communication and great photos while she is with our dog is exactly what we want. Our dog quickly grew attached to her and we look forward to having Amanda dog-sit whenever we are in the area.
Our GSD has megaesophagus. In the 8 years we have had him we have never left him with anyone for a vacation. We started RV’ing because we could have him with us at all times. This trip was to California and we could not take him. We thought we had him secured at a doggie sanctuary but then was told he was too much for them to handle but to check out Rover. This situation left us in a last minute scramble for sure. I got on and immediately messaged a few people and thankfully one of them referred us to Wendy! She is tiny but mighty, and willing to take it all on with enthusiasm and love! .We left her a 4 page agenda including to-do’s for our other furry family members including a rabbit, 3 cats, hamster, lots of fish and a bearded dragon too. Needless to say we were so nervous because it’s a lot to ask but she did it all for 12 days AND took pics for us, giving us feedback everyday. She is a true gem and we are beyond grateful we found her before this trip. We will definitely be asking her for help again if we need it!! Thank you Wendy so very much! You truly are doing what you love and it shows. Do not hesitate to reach out to her. She is beyond amazing! She even cleaned some (vacuumed, shook rugs and mopped if needed) and put our trash out on trash day!!
Noemi was absolutely wonderful! I was nervous about leaving my dog because she can be anxious and has some behavioral quirks, but Noemi put me at ease almost immediately. She was patient, kind, attentive, and clearly took the time to get to know her. What I appreciated most was how great Noemi was about communicating with me. She sent regular updates and photos and told me how my dog was eating, sleeping, behaving, and settling in. I never had to wonder how things were going, and it was such a relief to see how comfortable and happy my dog was with her. Noemi also followed all of my care instructions and wasn’t afraid to ask a question when something came up, which I really appreciated. By the end of the stay, it was obvious that my dog had become very comfortable and attached to her. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and felt incredibly fortunate to have found Noemi. I would absolutely trust her to care for my dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and communicative pet sitter. ❤️
Hailey took good care of Rocco while I was away, and he was happy and well when I returned. She handled his care as instructed, communicated when needed, and gave me peace of mind during my trip. Overall, I appreciated her help and would recommend her to pet owners looking for someone who is kind and capable with their pets.

FAQs for House Sitting - Del Rio Woods
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Del Rio Woods is $87 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $68 and $95 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 667 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Del Rio Woods. 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 Del Rio Woods 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 Del Rio Woods 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 Del Rio Woods 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Del Rio Woods. On Rover:
- 92% 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.
