“If I could give more stars I would! Raven is an absolute dream to have watch your furr- babies! She is very attentive and communicative. She sent me lots of updates and I received lots of photos and videos. She also was very respectful of my home. It was a GREAT experience and I am so thrilled she worked out! Not to mention that my dogs loved her!! Thank you, Raven! We will def be seeing you again!”
“Kim was AMAZING with our brand new rescue dog, Poof. I had foundPoof on the side of the road a week prior and we had the leave town for a wedding, not ideal with a new and unknown dog. Kim was incredible with him taking him on multiple walks a day and making sure he felt safe and love!! Plus Kim cleaned up the house before leaving and stayed late since we had a late flight. Kim is an incredible sitter!!”
“This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn’t have had a better experience with Paula! She came highly recommended by our neighbors. From the very beginning, she did a meet-and-greet and our pets loved her instantly. We have very spoiled fur babies and a long list of “crazy” asks, and she followed every single one of them without hesitation. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and patient. Paula kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It truly felt like our pets were in loving, trustworthy hands. Our fur babies loved her and will absolutely be using her again. I highly, highly recommend Paula to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter! 🐾💛”
“Another great stay with Aleksi! He was so flexible and understanding with what seemed like our ever-changing schedule after some travel difficulties, and as always took such amazing care of Woody and our home. Always five stars!”
“Luciana was amazing! She watched our two high-energy rescue dogs for the night, and we couldn’t be happier with how it went. Our pups can be a handful, but she handled them with such care and confidence! They absolutely loved her! When we got home, they were happy, well-exercised, and clearly well cared for. Luciana also sent us lots of great photos and updates. On top of that, the house looked great when we returned. We’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for an experienced petsitter!”
About: My specialty is small dogs from tiny Chihuahuas too Boston terriers! I absolutely love playing in caring for small animals! I also have a small dog myself! I work from home and I can tailor my work schedule to your dogs needs. If any I have a dog park where I live for residence and I like to go there if it's OK with the pet parents to let the dogs run around and get all the smells the Zumiez, etc.. along with regular potty breaks throughout the day. I know this is off topic but I'm super close to the airport so it's super convenient if you need to fly out! Knowing your pet is safe, happy, and cared for is priceless. Building long-term relationships with pets and their parents matters! I care for these fur babies as if they were my own.
“Matt was excellent to work with. Our Ridgeback, Ody, is a COVID dog and needs some time to warm up to new people. Matt did a great job building trust with him, and they quickly became friends. While we were away, Matt consistently sent pictures and updates, which gave us great peace of mind. I would highly recommend booking Matt.”
“Derik is an incredible dog sitter. We have two pups he has taken care of twice now with exceptional care. He is very communicative, responsive, and clearly cares about the health and wellbeing of each animal in his care- one of our dogs had an upset stomach & he was very resourceful in making her a meal to sooth her stomach (as requested by us). He ensures each of our dog gets in plenty of exercise and has taken the time to get to know their personalities & quirks. Our dogs are very well taken care of when Derik is watching them & we plan on continuing to use him in the future!”
“Brittany was absolutely incredible! She looked after our pups and our home perfectly while we were away. Her communication was stellar, we loved getting the daily picture updates, which gave us total peace of mind. We returned home to very happy, relaxed dogs and a perfectly clean house. Brittany is reliable, trustworthy, and a true professional. We will absolutely be booking her again!”
“Brittany did a wonderful job housesitting with two of our pups, provided great updates and even changed the sheets and towels for the family member coming to housesit after her! We will definitely be booking with her again”
About: Hi! I have been providing pet care on and off for over twenty years. I've spent time as a shelter volunteer and even owned my own dog walking business. While I don't have pets of my own, I am a big animal lover and I adore taking care of my friends and neighbors fur babes. I am a full time student, taking classes from home, and hoping to spend my extra time hanging with your pet! I am a full time student with a full semester of online classes which allows me a lot of freedom and a bit of extra time. I generally work from home and don't spend much time away. I'm also an avid walker and love to be outside (when it's not SO hot) whether walking in the neighborhood or out on the trails. I don't have a fenced yard as I live in an apartment complex, but we do have a gated dog run. I have a lot of past experience working with leash training and I'm confident with dogs of all kinds, regardless of reaction levels. I prefer to work with your pet, not against them, and I am adaptable to their specific needs.
“Jessica did an awesome job taking care of Chai and Jaco. We felt very comfortable leaving them with her and she kept us informed of what they were up to.”
“Christine was wonderful! This was our first time booking her services, and I would highly recommend her. From our first meet and greet, it was clear she had a lot of experience caring for animals. She was easy to talk to, had good communication during our time away, and went out of her way to care for our dog, Jovi (who can be a bit of a handful and hard to walk sometimes!). She even went out of her way to take him to his favorite park/trail one of the evenings. The coolest thing was finding out she had cared for Jovi when he was a puppy before we adopted him (we’ve had him since he was 1 year old). His previous owner had also contacted Christine for dog sitting, and she was able to look back through her pictures and find young puppy photos of our Jovi! It was totally meant to be! 😆 I highly recommend Christine for all of your animal care needs!”
“Melondy was great! We booked this trip over a month ago and it unfortunately landed during the weekend of the winter storm and she was still very understanding. Our two gremlins were super happy when we returned and had a great time.”
“Clair was amazing! Just after it and rebooked her house boarding. Hanai was super well taken care of, she kept me posted about everything and left my house spotless.”
“Kirby did an absolutely sensational job with our three dogs during me and my husband's wedding weekend! She showed up for two meet and greets before the weekend, and we knew our pups were going to be in great hands. Kirby was especially attentive to the needs of our Weimaraner, who has very bad separation anxiety. She sent thorough updates at the end of each day with lots of photos, and she took great care of our house. We will DEFINITELY continue to work with Kirby moving forward. 10/10 recommend to other dog owners looking for reliable in-house sitting.”
“Yuzhu was awesome to have she showed up and handled everything according to plan my bro was looking healthy and happy when I returned I highly recommend Yuzhu to anyone in need of sitter will be reaching out asap!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Del Valle
Mia accepted a last minute 5 day stay after another rover sitter cancelled 30hrs before the start of our booking. She was so kind to make a meet and greet work same day. She took great care of Clyde, sent photos and was proactive and promptly responsive with her communication while we were gone, and left our house in great condition — washed our sheets, took out the trash, 0 dirty dishes. 10/10 recommend her for not only great dependable care but also being a lifesaver so last minute. Thank you, Mia!!!
Angelica was fantastic, she updated daily and sent LOTS of pictures of my babies while I was away. It was very reassuring knowing she was there with them and seeing how much love they were getting. She walked my dog multiple times a day and made sure the kitty got his cuddles. I will definitely be using her again next time Im out of town!
Daniela was wonderful with our pets! We felt very comfortable and our dogs loved her from the beginning. She was able to give them medications, stay at our house, and gave them plenty of supervised time outside. Everything was in great condition upon our return. I highly recommend her for your pets needs!
Savannah did a spectacular job watching my 11-year-old lab who recently had a lung lobectomy and is currently experiencing arthritis. She made sure to take her time, carefully and slow slowly walking with June at a pace that worked well for her. Savannah was able to take June on more than three walks every single day and followed all rules perfectly. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and I am so grateful that she was available to step in.

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 Valle 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 Valle 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 Del Valle 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.
