About: I grew up with two dogs of my own, so caring for animals has been part of my life since childhood. Over the years, I’ve watching dogs for family, friends and neighbors. I have looked after dogs while their owners traveled, handled dogs of different sizes and temperaments, and treated every dog like it was mine. Now I am ready to open that same care up to more pet parents. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, be assured that your dog will get my full love and attention every time. I work from home, so I have time available throughout the day to care for your dog. I am available for boarding, daily visits, and walks every day of the week, including weekends. I can walk and feed your dog on time. I do not have other pets in my home. Your dog will get my full attention. I have experience with dogs of different energy levels. I adjust my care based on what your dog needs, whether that is calm companionship or active playtime.
About: I have a half pit half german shepherd dog who i take care of. We got him too early from his mother before she could train him herself, so i basically had to train him since he was 2 weeks old. He is big and he jumps and scratches some times and doesn’t know how to listen lol but i know how to handle this big guy. i used to have a lab who was the complete opposite who is very sweet and shy and cuddly. I can handle any type of dog from big, small, bad, or sweet! i’m currently working part time so i’ll have plenty of time with your pups! i mainly work on the weekends and am very flexible with scheduling! I know how to lure any dog into a crate, room, or outside. I give my full attention to the fur babies i care for!!
“Tammy is so great! She went above and beyond for us during our vacation. I only needed her for a couple of visits, but she did not hesitate to take care of us. Our little dog has a very big attitude, but Tammy was not phased by it at all! She really put my mind at ease and communicated through the whole process, even came over to do a meet and greet prior to our trip. She is knowledgeable and genuinely cares for all animals!”
“Ashley was great! This was our first time having someone drop in on our dog, and she made the whole experience so easy and comfortable. We felt completely at ease knowing our dog was in good hands. We would definitely recommend her and will be using her again!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals for almost 5 years now. I’ve worked with all ages of animals and I take care of your pets as if it was my own. It is always my goal to keep my clients happy and their animals and giving them the relaxation of knowing their loved ones are okay. I am a 20 yr college student and i’ve managed pretty well with animal care. I go to school 5 days a week but I am back by the afternoon. If anyone has questions I am open to discussing my schedule as well as your needed schedule. I take care of my clients pets best to my ability for their regular day to day schedule. I love to take them on walks, sit outside with them, and give them lots of love.
“Andrea did a wonderful job watching my babies while I was out of state for work. I have two kitties and require love and affection once a day to check in on them and ensure food and water is full and fresh. She also was able to help move my cats to my room when a sudden leak occurred causing maintenance needing to replace my whole tub while i was gone! 😅 Andrea was easy to reach and more than willing to help out!! Will definitely become a repeat customer!”
About: I've been a pet owner for half my life. I could not imagine life without a furr baby. They bring joy to my life. They are part of my family. I work from home so it makes it easy to attend to the needs of taking care of your pet. I can work on a flexible schedule. I have a fenced yard with plenty of running space. I have one small shihtzu who would enjoy the company. They are free to roam in the house as well.
About: I have had many animals throughout my life. I have also cared for friends’ animals when they go out of town. Your fur babies will be well cared for with me! I am a stay at home mom to teenage boys, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I am home all day most every day, so you can rest assured your pet is getting one on one attention every day of their stay! I have a fenced yard and a 9-pen boarding facility at my home. Each pen has access to a private, fenced potty area and your dog can either participate in group play or have private one-on-one play if they are more shy.
About: Hi. Our first dog when I was 6, aLab. An Irish Setter joined the family about 7 years later. Since then more dogs and then during the last 5 years some casual cats. I do some driving for my two sons, school, work, and such but the rest of my days are mine. Early AMs not a problem and preferably not later than 10PM. I am currently only offering dog walking and check in visits. Mentally healthy dogs like me. I'm also pretty good connecting with not-so-mentally-healthy dogs. I'm pretty empathic.
“Kierstan was consistent and patient with my shy cat! She checked in every day, sent pictures to help me connect with the cat even while I was gone, and did the sweep I asked to check for any signs of unwellness or any issues that might not have been obvious otherwise. Thank you Kierstan!!!”
About: I've taken care of animals for many different households the past couple of years throughout high-school and now in college. They trust me to watch over their animals with care. I have a very flexible schedule during the week with online college courses and a part time job at my church that is extremely flexible. Most importantly I make sure they are safe, comfortable, I pay attention to details, love on them, and make sure they are fed of course.
About: Pets have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. From hamsters and fish to cats and dogs, I’ve always had the joy of caring for animals, and I’ve loved every minute of it. Over the years, I’ve also rescued several pets of my own, which has made my love and appreciation for animals even stronger. When you’re away, I want your pets to feel just as safe, loved, and comfortable as they do at home. I offer pet walks, daily drop-ins, overnight sitting, and boarding, and I’m happy to work with whatever routine and care style makes your pet happiest. I’m also comfortable administering medications when needed, and I’m currently in school pursuing a career in healthcare. My schedule allows me to be available pretty much every day, giving me plenty of flexibility to give your pets the time, attention, and love they deserve. Your pets are family, and I’ll treat them like they’re my own! I am currently a student pursuing a degree in healthcare so I will be available most days as I am attending a local college. I am happy to do multiple daily drops-ins, daily walks, and weekend overnight sittings. I live on the first floor of my apartment complex that have multiple dog parks within it. It is a pet friendly community with plenty of walking trails all around the area.
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs multiple times for friends and family, I’ve even taken care of lost dogs and helped find their owners During the week I try to do walks or check-ins on pets in the League City/Clear Lake areas but on weekends I’m more flexible for house sitting and drop-ins! My weekend schedule is mostly flexible to address any pet needs! And it you’d like me to do some extra to make your pet comfortable (dog parks, playtime) I can help with that!
“Stacy was absolutely amazing with our dog Storm! We needed someone last minute and we could not have been happier with the way she took care of our baby ? We will definitely reach out again to her when we need someone again. Very loving and compassionate. She took great photos of her to keep us updated. GREAT EXPERIENCE!!!!”
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
About: I take care of other people’s pets like I would want someone to take care of my two fur babies! I’ve worked with cats, dogs, lizards, and exotic birds. I was a keeper at a wildlife ranch and have also worked at a pet resort so I have experience with a little bit of everything, and there’s nothing that can surprise me! I’m currently unemployed but applying for jobs, I love animals and have a passion for working with them so I will make time for the clients that need help. I have experience crating/kenneling cats and dogs and have worked with a diverse range of breeds as well so I understand needs look differently for every animal.
About: I've cared for different breeds for 10 years, including my own huskies. I'm comfortable with medication, senior pets, puppies, anxious animals, and I follow each owner's routine for feeding, walks, and meds exactly. I send photo updates every day, and I check the home and yard for hazards when I arrive. Pets get patience and attention, not just a quick visit. Pet care fits easily into my schedule. I'm flexible on days, evenings, weekends, and holidays, and I can usually accommodate last-minute requests. I'm home most of the day and able to schedule visits around my day, so I can offer midday check-ins, longer visits, or overnight stays. Tell me what your pet's routine looks like, and I'll build my schedule around it. Safety comes first. When I arrive, I check the home and yard for hazards like open gates, loose cords, toxic plants, and anything a pet could swallow. I follow your feeding, medication, and walk instructions exactly, keep pets on a leash outside unless you tell me otherwise, and make sure doors and gates are secured when I leave. I send photo updates during every visit, and if anything seems off, I contact you right away and follow your vet's instructions. I'm happy to do a meet-and-greet first so your pet and I can get comfortable, and so you can show me where everything is.
“Chi was great! Friendly, responsive and really supportive of the extra needs and concerns for my elderly cats. She definitely went the extra mile to make me feel comfortable while I was away from them. I would have her sit for me again and highly recommend her!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Dickinson
I can’t say enough good things about Dawn! She is an absolutely wonderful dog sitter — kind, caring, and incredibly attentive with my pups. My dogs usually take a little while to warm up to new people, but they are completely at ease with her from the start. You can tell she genuinely loves animals. Communication was outstanding. She sent frequent photo updates, clear notes on meals, and potty breaks, and always responded quickly if I had a question. It made leaving them so much less stressful. On top of being such a great communicator and caregiver, she’s also really lovely and warm in person — the kind of person who puts you at ease right away. When I got home, my dogs are happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would book her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and professional sitter.
It was my first time away from my girls and using rover. Emma did an amazing job keeping me updated and sending me pictures of them. My girls get anxious sometimes but Emma was great with them giving them love and treats. I would highly recommend her and will be using her again for any trips that come up!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Dickinson is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $32 per visit. 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 November 2026, there are 2,528 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Dickinson. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Dickinson 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!
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.
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Dickinson with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
