“Trina was awesome. On-time, very respectable, and my dog loved her immediately. I felt very assured my pet was in good care as she sent many photos of my dog throughout the booking. Will happily book with her again and would recommend to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Highly recommend Kevin! He is so knowledgeable and incredibly attentive, really appreciate him sharing his observations and tips and tricks with Millie today. She was instantly comfortable with him. He did a wonderful job caring for her, keeping her engaged and also following our routines. We would definitely use Kevin in the future.”
“Francis did such a great job watching our pets while we were on vacation! We have a shy dog and slightly reactive dog and we’re very specific with who we needed to hire. Francis met us twice before our trip to get to know the dogs and while we were away, sent great updates. We were able to have a great time away because of how safe our animals felt with Francis! Highly recommend!”
“Amy is the best dog sitter we could have asked for. I pride myself on how much I take my dogs on adventures but Amy even surpassed what I do for my own dog! Amy took my dog on numerous wonderful adventures while sending me amazing pictures from their adventures. When Amy left she left a gorgeous hand drawn picture of our dog. I recommend Amy to anyone with a pet that they like and want to leave in good hands. 5 stars. A+ dog sitting! Will hire again!”
“Su took such great care of our dog Harley while we were out of town. She took her for daily walks and followed all of our care instructions. She even cared for my plants while we were away. We feel so lucky to have found Su!”
“10/10! Rosalva was great with our two dogs, and they can be a handful (reactive to other dogs and new people). After several meet & greets, we felt confident leaving the dogs in her care for an extended trip. And when we got home, the pups were happy & healthy and our home was just as we left it. Highly recommend!”
“Katelyn was a wonderful sitter for our w golden retrievers. We have an older golden and a large 1 year old golden puppy who is a handful- and she managed them both beautifully. She sent regular updates and photos, and also left our house better than she found it.”
“We came home to very happy and relaxed kitties, I could tell they were well cared for. Our apartment was left clean, Stephanie was communicative, and she followed instructions. Thank you so much!”
“My chihuahua and sisters German shepherd/black lab mix loved having Angelique stay with them during our weekend away. Angelique was so kind to do a visit ahead of time, was very communicative, and organized her schedule around our dogs. My dog loves to cuddle and definitely got all of the love from Angelique. We’d love to have her back to stay at our place with cooper in the future.”
“Scarlett took such wonderful care of our dog, Snow Cone! She was so kind, flexible to a couple of last minute changes, and took lots of great photos. She communicated really well with us, with very prompt responses, and asked great questions during the meet and greet. We are excited to book her again soon!”
About: I have been around various dog and cat breeds my entire life. I am very active comfortable around animals and look forward to meeting your pet! I love animals and especially cats and dogs! I have been around pit bulls, labs, golden doodles, and everything in between! I have lots of patience to work with any animal. I live in a very dog and animal friendly neighborhood and have a completely fenced backyard. Also live near many dog parks and areas for them to run.
About: I used to volunteer at my local animal shelter, where I spent my free time walking and caring for dogs. I loved getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making sure they got the exercise and attention they needed. I truly miss it, and I’m excited to spend time caring for your pup like they’re my own. (I also love running please let me know if you want me to take your dog on a run!) Free on the weekends! During the week I’m free in the mornings or after work at 3pm! Would love to interact with animals more since I can’t own any in my apartment. I’m very used to big dogs and or aggressive cats it’s very situational but I’m confident I can handle any pet! I don’t offer boarding at my place unfortunately.
“Justin took amazing care of Rio and was incredibly attentive to all of his needs. He was very patient, followed every instruction perfectly, and made sure Rio was comfortable and happy throughout. On top of that, Justin was great with other pets as well, which gave me even more peace of mind. He treated my home with care and respect, just like his own. I’m truly happy with the experience and would absolutely love to have Justin back again for future sittings!”
“Lynn was a godsend for my family and took amazing and very loving care of our very active golden doodle. I would not hesitate to rebook her again. She’s very trustworthy, communicative and left the house in tip top condition. She’s so personable that I can see her becoming my friend.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Dresser
Sahil was an amazing dog sitter! He was very responsive and communicative throughout the entire stay, which gave us great peace of mind. He took wonderful care of our dog for a few days, and it’s clear that he genuinely loves and understands pets. The best part was seeing how happy and relaxed our dog was when we returned, which really showed how well he was treated. We would absolutely trust Sahil again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!
Read my other review! I will Only use Aurora to watch my babies. This time one of mine even threw up and she was SO kind about, cleaned it up, informed me, and even saved what he threw up (a foreign object) so I could Look at it. If that’s not a real dog mom idk what is!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Dresser on Rover is $79.56 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 9,313 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dresser. 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 Dresser 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 Dresser 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 Dresser 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Dresser. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
