“Jodi always spends so much time with the fur kids and does a great job every time. We love the communication and feel she takes such great care of the fur kids but also the house. She pays attention to our requests and is such a joy to have sit for us!”

About: I have trained a pit Bull (off leash and crate trained) & Frenchie (puppy pads & leash trained), fostered cats, and cleaned fish aquariums. When in doubt, take your puppy on a walk! I work remotely and am flexible to help out with caring for animals by taking them on a walk/hike or having them over for the night. I have a fenced in front and back yard but would train the dog to poop/pee while going for a walk. I hike Mandeville canyon weekly and would be happy to take your dog with me for exercise.
About: I have watched animals for neighbors since I was a teenager with multiple families for 20+ years! I am here for you and your pets needs!! Our pets are just as much of our family and need all the love. I look forward to helping you and your pet! I am currently available to work my schedule around you and your pets schedule. Whether it be going for a walk, bathing them, or over night care - I am your person! I grew up in Marin and know great hiking trails and paths to walk your animals. With cats - I am well versed in understanding their body language and daily routine! I look forward to meeting your pet and helping any way I can! At a clients home I will follow instructions for what works for that family, pet and home life. I am very trust worthy and have been working, watching and staying at people’s homes for 20+ years. I look forward to meeting your pet and keeping them safe and happy!!
About: I’ve cared for dogs, horses, cats, fish and other animals for decades, both professionally and for friends and family. I currently have 2 Jack Russell’s. I am retired and my time is my own, and very flexible. Dogs are a great fit for my daily hiking routine and my lifestyle. When caring for pets in a clients home I follow their instructions to the letter. At my home pets have access to the entire house.
About: I have over a decade of petsitting experience. My first priority will always be the wellbeing of your pets and home. I love meeting and winning over new animals. I am here to help. I left Omaha, Ne in 2020 for seasonal position with the NPS at Yosemite. That work took me to Charleston then Acadia the following summers. I settled in Asheville for 2 1/2 years before becoming a nomadic petsitter. I feel fortunate and love getting to meet new people and their pets, along with exploring all the corners of our country. I think I am pretty good at this, but am always learning. I have experience with all types of dogs and cats as well as fresh and salt water fish tanks, outdoor fish ponds, and caring for chickens and ducks. I’d love to keep expanding that experience. It is my aim to be the emotional support for your pets while you’re away, and to do my best to maintain their existing routines. I hope to hear from you. Thanks. I am fortunate enough to be semi-nomadic, with a very flexible living situation. I can go anywhere within reason, with enough notice. I love animals, and I love exploring. I follow any instructions or guidelines set out by the pet owner. I also employ common sense. If an animal needs space, they get space. If an animal wants to come along with me, they can- following the pet owner’s rules.
“Allison is an excellent pet and house sitter! She left my apartment in perfect condition (clean and tidy, even washed and changed bed sheets) and befriended my shy cats. I came home after a one-week vacation and the kitties were doing great! They certainly enjoyed Allison’s company and care :)”

“Christopher house sat for us while we were away for the weekend. Our yellow lab Stella had a great time! Chris was communicative, punctual, and reliable. We received several photos of our dog and she looked happy as ever. Would absolutely book again!”

“So kind and so easy to work with. He followed all our instructions, sent constant photo updates, and left our home spotless. Our dog was clearly happy and comfortable the whole time. Highly recommend!”

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I grew up rescuing dogs of all breeds, ages, temperaments, and medical backgrounds, which taught me patience, compassion, foundational training skills, and the importance of tailoring care to each animal’s individual personality and needs. Over the years, I’ve also cared for friends’ pets, including dogs, cats, birds, and chameleon. My experience includes walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, medication administration, and outdoor adventures. I currently share my home with two incredible pups and a kitten who thinks he's a dog! Adventures big and small are part of our routine, whether we're exploring a park, hitting the trails, spending a day at the beach, or relaxing at a pet-friendly café. Whether your dog is an energetic adventurer who loves exploring new trails, a social butterfly who enjoys long walks, or a couch-loving companion who just wants some company, I'll tailor my care to their personality, preferences, and routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know our pets are family, and trusting someone else to care for them is a big deal. My goal is to make that experience as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet. I'll respect their routines, give them plenty of attention and affection, and keep you in the loop with regular messages and photo updates while you're away. I cannot wait to connect and meet your loved one! My schedule is very flexible during the week and on weekends! Just to note, my four-leggeds would not interact with your pet unless discussed and boarding would be in your home! Safety, trust, and your pet’s comfort are always my priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routines, triggers, and individual needs so I can provide attentive, personalized care in an environment where they feel secure. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your space and follow your instructions closely, from feeding schedules and exercise routines to medication administration and household rules. I’m mindful of secure doors, gates, leashes, and harnesses, and I take extra care during walks and outdoor adventures to keep pets safe. I also make sure pets have fresh water, a comfortable space to rest, and plenty of positive attention. Clear communication is important to me, too. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos, let you know how your pet is doing, and reach out promptly if I have any concerns. My goal is for you to feel confident that your pet is receiving thoughtful, reliable care and that your home and their routines are being respected while you’re away.

“Angelica was amazing and our dogs loved her. She communicated well and responded well to our sweet Izzy who needs a lot of extra care as we are finding out. She handled it like a pro. Our dogs were relaxed and happy! Would definitely recommend her for anyone who needs sweet sitter.”

“Gage was great. Stayed with my 15 month old dog while I was working on an ambulance for 14 hours. Took him on 2 walks, played with him, fed him, and even watched my girlfriend's dog for a bit. He was patient with the two different dog personalities.”


About: I’ve taken care of my family’s pets all my life and have 2 dogs of my own. I worked as a Vet Technician for 4 years and now work relief shifts every once in a while. I am capable of going on long walks/hikes, cutting nails and giving medications. Evenings and weekends work best for me. I work Monday through Friday and get off at 4pm, so any time afterwards is best. I can be flexible on weekends. I will always have my eyes on your pets, keeping close to them whether hanging out inside, going on walks or being loose in the backyard.

“Zack did a great Job! He watched our house and our 2 English Bulldogs for 10 days. He updated us through out his stay with pictures and the left the house cleaner than when we left! Our dogs are pretty high maintenance and Zach didn’t have any issues and took great care of them. He is very professional and you will not be disappointed with him. We highly recommend Zack!”

About: I am a Chef and animal lover. It is my passion to nourish & take care of people, and this certainly extends to our furry friends. I have an English Bulldog named Luca and he is extremely adored. I am very active. I go for 3 mile walks minimum daily, and I would love to bring your dogs along! I also enjoy time at home, where I can be a great companion for them there as well - playing or sharing space. Any of your pets special needs are safe with me, I will care for them as my own! I hope we can spend time together soon! I work at a bakery so I am out of work between 2-3:30 everyday at the latest. I am always off on Sundays and only work 4 days out of the week. I go into work between 6-9 am. I have a small fenced yard outside my apartment building. I am very close to a park I can take them to. I will allow animals on my couch, but of course I will set boundaries if this is not something you want to become a habit. I will give them as much play time and love as they please. I can also respect that some animals just want you to be there for company and I can do that as well.
“Since we first connected with Kellie this past spring, she and our little furry guy have had many adventures together! From neighborhood walks and nature hikes, visits to the park and to Kellie's place, and a recent overnight in our home, Kellie's warmth and excellent care—plus the added bonus of her terrific photo updates—have made for a lasting relationship. Each of these wonderful experiences led to our having the highest level of comfort and trust for their most recent adventure—a week together in our home while we (his people) traveled abroad. Of course there were many details to prepare for and a variety of things to be a bit anxious about before the trip, but worrying about excellent pet care was not one of them! Our furry friend can be a bit concerned when something new is in the air, but as soon as he hears that Kellie will be here soon, he knows things will be just fine. All the qualities that make Kellie such an amazing caregiver made the week we were away a grand success in every way! Thank you again Kellie for helping to make lovely memories for us and most importantly for our little guy. We all look forward to more joyful times together.”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and experienced caretaker with years of hands-on experience. I’ve cared for both cats and dogs through every stage of life - kittens as young as 2 weeks old, senior cats with special needs, energetic pups who love adventure, and mellow dogs who prefer relaxed walks. I understand that every pet has their own personality, quirks, and comfort zones, and I tailor my care to match their needs. I genuinely enjoy daily walks and neighborhood exploring, whether it’s a quick stroll or a longer adventurous hike. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me for years to care for their pets while they’re away, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m reliable, attentive, and always focused on making sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I only take on one client at a time, allowing me to provide truly one-on-one care and give each pet my undivided attention, companionship, and affection.Whether your kitty is playful, your pup is energetic, or they’re somewhere in between, I’m here to give them the care they deserve. I work remotely, which gives me the flexibility to care for pets throughout the day. Whether it’s dropping in for a visit, taking your dog out for a walk, or spending extended time with your cat, or caring for your dog in my house, I can easily fit their care into my daily routine. If your kitty prefers company, I’m happy to work from your home so they’re not alone, perfect for cats who like a little extra attention (or supervision!). Caring for neighbors’ pets fits naturally into my schedule, and I’m always glad to provide walks, playtime, cuddles, and consistent updates while you’re away. I only take on one client at a time, so I can give your pet my full attention and provide the personalized care they deserve. Whether I’m caring for your cat at home or taking your dog out for a walk, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I follow any instructions you provide closely: feeding schedules, walk routines, medications, favorite toys, or preferred spots. I know how important consistency is for pets. 🥰 For drop-in visits, I make sure your pets get the attention they need during that time- play, cuddles, quiet companionship, a clean litter box, or fresh food and water. For dogs, that can also mean a refreshing walk to stretch their legs and explore. If I’m staying in your home, I keep their environment calm and familiar while also respecting your space.
About: I truly love animals and have over 30 years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I’ve grown up with pets my entire life and have also spent years pet sitting and volunteering with dog rescues. When you’re away—whether for work or travel—I’ll make sure your pets feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I treat every animal like family and aim to become their favorite human (or at least their second favorite after you!). I’m reliable, honest, and trustworthy. Born and raised in Marin, I’m a mom of two humans and a 10-month-old boxer, and the proud aunt to a big rescue doodle and two cat brothers. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to be available for pet care during weekdays, weekends, and extended stays. I’m available throughout the day and can work with your needs. Since I have two humans and a boxer at home, I prefer to hang with your pets at your house. In addition to caring for your pets, I’ll also look after your home. I’ll keep things clean, bring in mail, and water plants.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - El Campo
Maria and Ethan are an absolute dream. My 11.5-year-old golden mix named Jack has several health issues and a very specific medicine routine every day. He’s high-adventure and high-anxiety and I’ve largely accepted that my travels are limited because it’s too much to expect the same level of care and outdoor activity I give him from someone else. Maria and Ethan proved that level of care is possible and provided so much relief with their tenderness, attentiveness, and dedication to his needs. They followed his meds to a science, took him on adventures and hikes, took him to our regular dog park, gave him endless love and affection, sent frequent check-ins, and kept my home so tidy. I cannot express enough gratitude for their care, kindness, and love. Jack loves them dearly — and I do too!

Cassia watched Effie while we were in Copenhagen visiting family and was absolutely amazing! She was very communicative the whole time she watched Effie, and Effie, who can sometimes get anxious when we're out of town, was very happy and chill when we got home. Also, Cassia was so flexible when our flight home was delayed and helped take care of Effie until we were back, which was a huge relief. We'll definitely be reaching out next time we need help with Effie. ☺️

The average cost of House Sitting in El Campo is $98 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $81 and $107 per night.

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 El Campo 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 El Campo 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 El Campo 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in El Campo. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% 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.
