“We had such a great experience! We were spending the day at Lake Conroe and needed someone we could trust with our little doggies so we could get out and enjoy some activities without worrying about them. She did an amazing job, kept us updated, and most importantly made us feel completely comfortable knowing our babies were being taken care of. That peace of mind meant a lot to us and allowed us to actually relax and enjoy our day. We would absolutely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and caring to watch their pets. Thank you for taking such good care of our little guys! 🐾❤️”


“We initially did a meet a greet a few days beforehand and all went smooth. On the day of sitting Kaitlin was punctual and ready. We received updates and photos of our Dobie pup during the sitting. All sitting instructions were followed and Kaitlin did a great job during the 10 hours she sat our pup at our house. We will use Kaitlin again and will recommend her to others.”

“This is our first experience in trusting our pups to someone other than a family member or a friend. We cant be more pleased with our experience and it’s due to Aiden’s wonderful personality and love of animals. Aiden continuously provided us with updates and photos of our pups. He was always very prompt in replying to our messages. Both the pups settled in with him very comfortably and even though it took our 16 year old Ruby a little longer, she came around. We are so pleased with Aiden’s care for our pups, we’ll definitely book with him again and refer him to our friends and family.”

“Amber was great with our three dogs. This was our first time to use Rover and we loved how she interacted with our fur babies. From the first time we met Amber we could tell she loves what she does and her sweet spirit shined. We definitely had a peace that she would treat our babies as her own. We will definitely use Amber again!”

About: I have had dogs since I was born and I've been pet sitting since high school when neighbors and family friends needed someone. I've taken care of young and energetic puppies, dogs with medical needs, big dogs, small dogs, and everything in between. I have experience providing potty walks and playtime as well as overnight sitting for 1-2 dogs at a time. I have a special love for dogs and I look forward to being your dog's new best friend! I currently work 1-2 days at a pickleball club and am an online MBA student. I am available to take care of pups on weekdays and weekends at all times of the day! I will follow what the dog is used to for their health, safety, and trust. I can walk dogs on a leash or let them outside without one. Inside the house, I will do as the owner says for spaces the dog is able to be or in a crate. If the dog is seeming uncomfortable or unsafe at any point, I will contact the owner.
About: I used to dogsit when I lived in LA and that’s when I fell in love with the “pitbull” breed. My dogs are my children and I will treat yours just the same. I work fully remote and have a very flexible schedule. My morning usually consists of walking/running my dogs 2 miles and then preparing for the day. I have a fenced in yard and monitor my dogs outside they are not allowed out alone. This helps prevent eating things they should not and any escapes. I can care for your dogs the same or whatever way you prefer.

About: I have owned and operated my own dog boarding business for the last 5 years. I have also been blessed through those years, of caring for dogs & being able to meet ALL their wonderful humans!! I also opened Arizona's 1st Doggy Ice Cream Bar in 2023 and it was so much fun!! 🐶🎉 I truly love our 4 legged friends and I think it shows in my news articles/reviews. I don't think you will ever find another sitter that will care for your pup like I do!! ☺️♥️🐶 It is ALL day... EVERYDAY!! I revolve around their schedule! THEY come first!! Dogs are my LIFE & I wouldn't want it any other way!! 😅♥️🐶👍 I can accommodate the dog to WHATEVER the owner wants FOR the dog. It's ALL about "Them". Their needs come first and I can assure you that those needs will be met.
“Jazmin took wonderful care of my 6 month old golden retriever while I was out of town. She kept me updated throughout her whole stay with Lainey. I would feel 100% confident having her back as a repeat sitter in the future. She is awesome!”

“Gabby was outstanding! She took care of our senior dog, Milo, during a 9-night house sitting stay, and we could not have asked for a better sitter. While we were away, Milo unexpectedly had a significant mobility/weakness issue arise. Gabby handled the situation calmly, responsibly, and with great care. She immediately communicated with us, sent pictures and videos so we could understand what was happening, and followed our guidance closely. She was able to add additional medication support for Milo and, most importantly, kept him comfortable and stable until we returned. Gabby stayed in regular contact with us throughout the trip and clearly cared about doing what was best for Milo. The situation was unexpected, and she truly went above and beyond. She also took excellent care of our home and left the house in perfect condition. We are very grateful for the care Gabby provided and would absolutely trust her with Milo again. We highly recommend Gabby, especially for anyone with a senior dog who needs extra patience, judgment, and attention.”

If I’m staying at your home, I’ll follow your instructions carefully and make sure everything is done just the way you prefer. Your pets will always be in safe, loving, and capable hands with me. 🐾

About: I’m an animal lover with 6 years of experience caring for pets and houses for friends and family. I understand that your pets are more than just animals—they’re part of your family, and I treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I’m comfortable caring for dogs, cats, and other unique pets, including providing meals, fresh water, walks, playtime, companionship, medication, and plenty of cuddles.

I take pride in providing dependable, and thorough care and I prioritize the highest quality of service possible! I provide high quality service that emphasizes the pet’s safety, comfort, emotional well-being, routine, and overall care while the owner is away. What my high-quality pet care service involves • Understanding each pet individually: Every animal has a different personality, routine, comfort level, and set of needs. I take time to learn the pet’s habits, likes and dislikes, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and behaviors rather than providing one-size-fits-all care. • Maintaining their normal routine: Pets generally feel more secure when their familiar routine is maintained. This includes feeding them at their usual times, refreshing their water, cleaning litter boxes or potty areas, providing walks or playtime, and maintaining their normal sleeping and daily schedule. • Providing companionship and attention: my quality care includes genuine interaction. Depending on the pet, that may mean playing, brushing, walking, giving affection, talking to them, or simply sitting with them. For pets that experience separation anxiety, calm companionship can be especially important. • Keeping the pet safe: As your pet’s sitter I prioritize creating a secure environment and preventing situations that could put the animal at risk. This includes checking doors and gates, being mindful of hazards, monitoring interactions with other animals, and following the owner's specific safety instructions. • Observing behavior and health: As your pet sitter I pay attention and inform you about any changes in appetite, drinking, bathroom habits, energy level, mood, mobility, or behavior. Recognizing that something is different can be extremely important to your pets health and well-being. • I ensure all care instructions are completed with qualityand care regarding food, treats, medications, exercise, allergies, behavioral concerns, or special routines. • Keeping your pet's environment clean is top priority! This includes cleaning litter boxes, picking up waste in the yard, washing food and water bowls, cleaning accidents, and keeping the areas where the pet spends time comfortable and sanitary. • Providing enrichment Pets need mental stimulation as well as basic physical care. Toys, interactive play, walks, scent exploration, routine exercises, and age-appropriate activities can help prevent boredom and reduce stress. • Respecting the owner's home I ensure to treat my client's home with respect and professionalism. This means being responsible with keys and access, keeping the home secure, cleaning up after the pet, and leaving the home in good condition. • I prioritize communicating consistently providing you with reassurance that your pets are safe and doing well. A high-quality and meaningful updates about your pets day and, photos or video updates. Communication is open and honest—if something unexpected happens. My high quality services ensure and prioritize that your pet is treated with patience, compassion, responsibility, and genuine care—not simply being checked on!

She is really easy to communicate with and an absolute gem of a person. She has such a sweet personality and my dog absolutely loved her❤️🐶 Samantha made the whole process easy!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,148 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dobbin. 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 Dobbin 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 Dobbin 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 Dobbin 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.
