“Alice is awesome! My pup loved her. We got back and he was so chill. Alice was great about sending pictures and updates during the stay. She also treated our home like her own, spotless! Thank you so much!!”
“Jodi was SO sweet w our dog! Lots of walks and play time. Always very timely and communicative. And she is very very clean! Jodi goes above and beyond to keep our home clean and tidy.”
“Yanhong took excellent care of our 8 month old puppy while petsitting. She was responsible, communicative and detail oriented. She also left our house very clean. We would absolutely use Yanhong again.”
“This is the second time we used Maggie and it was so easy. Our pups remembered her and settled in quickly. They love her and we love coming home from vacation to a tidy house and happy dogs!”
“Samantha was absolutely wonderful with our elderly dog, Trixie, over Thanksgiving. She was incredibly gentle, patient, and attentive to Trixie’s needs, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such caring hands. Samantha sent regular updates and photos, and it was clear that Trixie felt comfortable and loved. We’re so grateful for the exceptional care she provided and would highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter. We’ll definitely book with her again!”
“Wow! What an incredible sitter Hong was. This is the first time I have ever been away from my fur babies and not worried once. She was so communicative the entire time and I came back to happy dogs and a pristine house. If I could give her 10 stars I would! Thank you again Hong. ❤️”
“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!”

“Melissa was pleasant, knowledgable and reliable. She kept in good communication with me while i was gone and had excellent suggestions for setting up my kitty in his new home. I would absolutely hire her again!”
“Signe was absolutely fantastic! She went above and beyond with keeping our pups active and entertained. Throughout the stay, she sent tons of pictures so we always knew how they were doing and she was very thoughtful in her communication. We wouldn't hesitate to have her watch our dogs again!”
“Darla did a great job with Rudy, Evie, Boo Boo and PepperJack! I was out of country for a week and nervous to be so far away and doing Rover.com for the first time. Darla has excellent attention to detail is cares about every nuance of taking are of my furry family. Thank you Darla for doing such an awesome job! Leah”
“Kevin and Alex watched our house and pets for two weeks. They were great communicating and caring for our large dog, cat, snake and fish. Alex kept his cool and captured our pet snake when he escaped (prior to us leaving without us knowing). Changed batteries in our door lock and were always available if anything came up. They walked our 115 pound dog and sent daily photo updates. Highly recommend Kevin and Alex!”
“I almost didn't want to review Olivia because we want to horde her all to ourselves ;) She totally "gets" animals and found just as much humor in the antics of our three silly fur babies as we do, and sent adorable photo updates throughout. She left our home spotless, followed all my crazy-dog-mom instructions perfectly, and my dog - who has special needs and suffers from serious PTSD - seemed happier than he EVER has upon us returning from a trip before. Like, "I made a new bestie Mama! I've been having so much fun!" It was so gratifying to sense that. Thanks Olivia :)”
“We had the best experience with Monica! She will be my first go-to from now on whenever I leave town! She was so kind, left the house immaculate and Farley loved hanging out with her and Bodie at our house. Farley is a sensitive soul and she made sure he didn’t feel lonely which was a worry of mine. She sent photos and was super communicative while we were gone- this was the first time we had someone stay in our house and she really made me feel great about it:-) Thank you Monica!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - El Campo
Lauren was great! She watched my home and two dogs for a week and everything was perfect. Walked the dogs daily, kept them loved and happy, and I came back to a spotless home. Good communication. She has walked the dogs a couple of times as well and was fantastic! Definitely recommend if you’re looking to leave your home and dogs with someone trustworthy so you can have stress free time away.
Gretchen couldn’t have been better with Rocky and Moose! From the moment she met them, it was clear she genuinely loves dogs, and they absolutely adored her in return. She kept us updated throughout her stay with regular check-ins, photos, and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was always quick to respond and easy to communicate with, and we never had to wonder how the dogs were doing. When we came home, Rocky and Moose were happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. Will book again!

FAQs for House Sitting - El Campo
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in El Campo on Rover is $84.36 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 7,733 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across El Campo. 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 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 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.

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.
