“Lacey is wonderful - my dog has a lot of energy, and Lacey does a great job of getting some of that energy out when I have long days at work. Plus, she takes great pictures! Thank you, Lacey!”
About: I’ve always taken care of neighbors and friends dogs growing up and I take my own dogs on long walks at the park and make sure to feed them the best food we can. I love giving them baths and training them! I’m currently working a weekday job from 12 to 4 so early mornings, evenings and weekends I’m completely available to watch your creatures or/critters I have two dogs who enjoy just under an acre of fenced in yard, my husky loves to hunt lizards but my Aussie always scares them off!
“Emily was a delight! She made sure she was clear on what our needs and expectations were, and sent us lots of great updates with pictures. I could tell our two dogs and one cat were well cared for and gots lots of love because they were so relaxed when we got home. Thank you, Emily!”
“Kinzi is refreshingly professional and dependable. She was thorough during our initial meeting which provided peace of mind while we were gone. Looking forward to hiring her again in the near future!”
About: Time and love! Recently retired with nothing but time and excitement to care for others’ beloved pets, especially because I don’t currently have any of my own. I have a large, fenced in backyard in the quiet hill country. There is a lovely trail for taking walks, and I love to take the pups for rides in the car! I’m experienced in administering and staying on top of medications and treatments. My daughter has two dogs that she sometimes brings for visits. So, if your dog is social, there is an opportunity for playtime with fellow furry friends. Caring for your pets would be my one and only priority. I spend the majority of time at home, and exercise is very important to me so I hope your dog loves to walk! Safety and affection are priority. Keeping a close eye on your pet and always making sure all needs are met is a guarantee when you put them in my care!
“Krystyna was great! One of my dogs is particular about who he feels comfortable around. It typically takes time for him to warm up to a new person. The instant she walked in the door he ran up to her wagging his tail. I felt comfortable from the beginning with her taking care of my pups. Krystyna is a caring sitter and her communication is wonderful. She will be my go to sitter!”
About: Dogs have been part of my life since childhood. I grew up in a home where our dogs were family, which is where I first learned to read their cues, respect their needs, and love them without condition. That foundation has stayed with me. Today I’m a dog mom to two of my own, a 2-year-old poodle/corgi and a 5 month-old puppy, so I have hands-on experience with dogs at every stage of life. I understand the patience a puppy needs, the gentleness a senior deserves, and everything in between. I work from home, so your pup will never be left alone for long. Expect regular potty breaks, playtime, lots of love, and photo updates so you always know they’re happy and safe. Your dog is family. They’ll be treated exactly like mine. 🐾 I’m home all day, so your dog is never left alone waiting for someone to come back. I live in a quiet west Austin neighborhood with a backyard for running and playing, plus plenty of nearby trails, parks, and shaded routes for walks and hikes. It's a calm, secure setting where dogs can relax and feel at home. Inside, I follow the dog's lead. Some pups need their own space to decompress, and others want to be glued to our side. Either way, I’ve got them. I live in a house and two dogs of my own in the Bee Cave area. We have a big back yard where we get fresh air and stretch our legs regularly. I’m comfortable with small to large dogs. My home is calm, my dogs are friendly, and you’ll get daily reports of your fur babies and how they’re settling in!
“Fantastic!! Excellent communication. Very thoughtful and detail oriented. My two Maine coons are shy, but they took right to Mariana. I felt at ease knowing they were in such great care. Mariana will definitely be my first choice Rover next trip.”
“Jeremy was exceptional!! …with me & my pets :) I was nervous using this service for the first time, and he did a tremendous job putting me (and my 3 pets) all at ease. He sent updates & pics regularly - It felt wonderful knowing they were so well taken care of for my 5 days away! Thank you, Jeremy!”
“She was able to help me out last minute which was very appreciated! We had to stay an extra day so I was stressed about the dogs but her willingness to help made me feel so relieved. Will be using her again!!”
About: I've had and cared for all types and ages of dogs, cats, birds, etc. I know how important your animals are to you as mine are to me! I would want and expect my animals to be treated the way I treat yours as they all deserve to feel loved and cared for. Since I am an empty nester, I have lots of free time to give to others animals. I truly enjoy every minute of it and I hope you will let me care for yours. I check on them frequently. Give them there potty breaks and meals. I also like to spend quality time with them as they are needing attention while you are away.
“Sam was incredible taking care of our atreven while we were away getting married and on our honeymoon! It was so much easier to enjoy knowing he was safe at home with Sam. We would love to book again for our next trip. 10/10 highly recommend”
About: Hi! We're Chelsea and Amanda, a Southwest Austin couple whose whole life revolves around animals. Chelsea has 30+ years of hands-on experience: she managed a grooming salon, worked at Brookfield Zoo in Chicago, and has done barn management and animal education (she also owns a horse). Amanda works at the Austin Zoo. Senior pets, special-needs pets, anxious pets and big goofy dogs are all welcome here. Our home: a house with a fenced yard and our own friendly crew: Ghost (rescued husky mix), Pepper (Boston Terrier), cats, and a few reptiles. Pets from all kinds of homes fit right in. Beyond dogs and cats: we also board rabbits, ferrets, guinea pigs, hamsters, snakes and other small pets. Grooming add-ons: with Chelsea's salon background, your pup can go home fresh and clean. Baths, brush-outs, nail trims, ear cleaning, teeth brushing, and summer shave-downs. Photos! Chelsea is a published pet photographer, so expect LOTS of really cute photos during every stay. We'd love to meet you and your pet. Free meet & greets anytime! My partner and I both have the ability to work from home so someone is always at the house. Working with animals has been a passion of mine, and I'm fortunate enough to make this my primary profession, and hopefully will continue to be able to offer my premium services for the future. In your home, I will ensure to follow all of your rules and special commands for your pet. While walking your dog I will NOT allow your dog to approach or be approached by any person or dog to ensure the safety of both. I have a fenced-in yard and a secure area where they will be able to roam. Again I keep open communication with any issues that might arise or just fun updates to let you know how silly your furry family member was.❤🐾
“Tiffany bonded well with my cats and wasn’t upset when they brought a few small reptiles into the house. :). She sent info or photos after each visit and I think the cats enjoyed her visits. Thanks!”
About: I’ve done pet sitting since I was in high school where I watched many neighbors dogs. In this time I’ve found that Rover is a terrible service to get for your dog. Find any other service as it’s better than Rover. Your pup will be well taken care of daily. I will be working primarily on pet sitting and can dedicate a lot of my time to your pup. Happy to send plenty of photos of them enjoying their day and playing with their favorite toys. The main goal I have is to understand your expectations and to exceed them. I know how much I care about my own pet and will extend the same love and care to all your pets.
About: I grew up with several dogs and cats in the family home. I have raised and trained a Doberman, so I know what it takes to teach them obedience and the importance of consistency. I love animals so much, they bring me so much joy. Fun fact: when I was a little girl I wanted to be a veterinarian. I feel that I have a special connection with animals; they are usually naturally drawn to me. I didn’t pursue a career as a veterinarian because I had other interests. I currently don’t have any animals because I enjoy the flexibility. I would love to take care of your animals and treat them with extra special care. I am currently working part time and would have the time to care for your pet(s) after work or on my days off. I currently work a 2-3 days a week and am available by the afternoons on the days I am working. I typically pet sit in the owners home. I find that is more comfortable for them. I am not currently able to have pets where I live.

Carrie did a wonderful job giving our cat some love and attention while we were on vacation. She even helped reset our pet camera when it cut out. It gave me great comfort being away and seeing photos of them cuddling and him getting treats. I would highly recommend her services. Thank you for caring for Orangie!
Sierra took such great care of our dog for a last minute NYE trip. She was extremely prompt for every visit, communicated clearly and consistently, and sent us adorable photos of her playing with him. When we returned home, our dog was calm, happy, and clearly well cared for. It’s obvious she truly loves animals and takes her responsibilities seriously. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Dripping Springs
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Dripping Springs is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $37 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 6,576 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Dripping Springs. 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Dripping Springs. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
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.
