About: Hello! I am Kyle and I have had dogs and cats my entire life, I love animals and wish I had space for more. Currently I have one antisocial 10 yr old bowling ball (old English bulldog) who I adopted when he was 1. I thought with some work he might accept other dogs but it turns out he prefers people and kitties exclusively in his life. My wife and I keep him entertained most days though, and he does sleep maybe 80% of the time haha. For the past 12 years I have pet sit in-home and house sit for a handful of families I know in the area. I have recently switched to part time employment to focus more on pet sitting and my art. I have found an animal rescue to volunteer with in my spare time in every place I’ve lived in. My profile picture is from an event I helped organize with Three Little Pitties Rescue in Friendswood. At my previous job we held pet food drive and “puppy time” events with the community a few times a year. Before this I worked with a rescue out in the country in North Texas cleaning up after and feeding the pups. I am available for in-home pet sitting, day visits, or dog walking only. I am a big guy, 6’ and 230lbs so I am good with big dogs but I need to know up front if they will try to bolt on me on leash or something so I am prepared. I have lots of experience with reactive dogs, and dogs who are difficult to walk on lease. I am flexible and respectful, I understand things come up or schedules need to be adjusted for you or your pets. I will show up on time and I always have reliable transportation. Send a message with a little bit about what you are looking for and any questions for me. I am looking forward to meeting you! I currently work part time and help take care of my mom most days. Pet care for me will be drop in and leave after, not staying long periods during the day or overnight. Frequency of visits and overnight need to be discussed first, if your pet has high needs and frequent potty breaks I would likely not be the best sitter for you. You and your pets comfort is my highest priority. I know how scary it is to leave your best friends with a new person and I want to make that as easy as possible. Tell me your dogs quirks, give me that multiple page document of hand written pet sitting notes. You know your pet best, if lots of treats is best or talking really softly or whatever helps your pet feel more comfortable. Generally animals feel comfortable around me, and skittish ones I have unlimited patience with. I have worked with lots of dogs and cats who hide or bark/hiss around new people. I know how to read body language and give them space when needed and try to get them to trust me being in their space.

About: Hi! I'm a reliable and caring pet sitter and dog walker with 2 years of hands-on experience helping others with their pet care needs. I have had animals all my life, from dogs to hamsters, guinea pigs, newts, frogs, and more! I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pet company, I treat every animal like my own. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels, as well as cats and other small pets. I understand how important it is to follow your pet's routine and provide updates for peace of mind. I'm dependable, patient, and happy to accommodate any special needs your pet may have. I have reliable transportation and a flexible schedule. I'd love the opportunity to care for your furry family member and give them the attention they deserve! I have a flexible schedule that allows for morning, afternoon, or evening visits most weekdays and weekends. I can do short drop-ins or longer walks to fit your pet's needs. I have experience with dogs that are anxious around new people and will work hard to make your pet - no matter how outgoing or timid - feel as comfortable as possible.

About: I've had pets my entire life. I take care of large and small dogs and a cat here and there for friends, neighbors and referrals for 2 weeks or less, but I can do longer. Most of my care is due the pet owner going on a vacation. It got started bc I do house sitting and some of them had dogs. That is when I learned that I like dogs more than people most of the time and I mean that in a nice way. I flush every toilet at least every other day and run every sink at least long enough to refresh the p traps. Toilets get flushed, plants watered, I can mow the lawn too. I've handled emergencies before when it was 20 degrees and can shut off water gas power. When you come back to your house it'll be in perfect condition. I may charge more than others but I do a lot more and you can have a lot more trust in me. I'm not new to this. I'm just new to Rover. I take care of my own dogs AKC Doberman Pincher and our loved ditch rescue, got cats, a Rhode Island Red hen and a unclipped Conjure parakeet too. If you need the extras while your gone, let's figure this out bc I do real house sitting and I love pets! I am retired from the Security and Safety industries. I have been doing this for friends untill I started getting referrals, but I still have a lot of time left over so I spend it with my big dogs. I love taking care of animals bc they are so appreciative and love back unconditionally. I have selected a relatively small circumference of serviceable homes, so this means you're probably living pretty close to me. I can visit your home 2, 3 or even four times a day. If you really need me to spend the night I can do it. I update my calendar daily and look forward to taking care of my friends and neighbors pets every single day. I like to take care of the pets at your house. I just don't think my big dogs want to share their home. And I think most animals probably would have less stress being at a familiar place, after all there's no place like home. But I can take them for walks if you need me to. I will feed them exactly as you require and if you run out of food I can back you up. Since I am literally safety certified as a technician and a supervisor, I can ensure you that your pet will not be put in harm's way. As a former licensed security operator owner, I have decades of proven honor and dedication to my customers and their homes and belongings. But most importantly I dig dogs and cats so put that first. I honestly would rather meet or talk on the phone first before you pay for anything please. Details matter.

About: Pets have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. From hamsters and fish to cats and dogs, I’ve always had the joy of caring for animals, and I’ve loved every minute of it. Over the years, I’ve also rescued several pets of my own, which has made my love and appreciation for animals even stronger. When you’re away, I want your pets to feel just as safe, loved, and comfortable as they do at home. I offer pet walks, daily drop-ins, overnight sitting, and boarding, and I’m happy to work with whatever routine and care style makes your pet happiest. I’m also comfortable administering medications when needed, and I’m currently in school pursuing a career in healthcare. My schedule allows me to be available pretty much every day, giving me plenty of flexibility to give your pets the time, attention, and love they deserve. Your pets are family, and I’ll treat them like they’re my own! I am currently a student pursuing a degree in healthcare so I will be available most days as I am attending a local college. I am happy to do multiple daily drops-ins, daily walks, and weekend overnight sittings. I live on the first floor of my apartment complex that have multiple dog parks within it. It is a pet friendly community with plenty of walking trails all around the area. I recently lost my dog from old age, so my apartment is ready to host your babies!

About: I've had dogs since I was little, and participated in fostering over twenty dogs and puppies alongside my family as a child and young teen. My family currently has a very active over twenty pound doodle, who I am experienced in caring for. I can take care of puppies, young dogs, and older dogs of all shapes and sizes. I am a student and work part-time, capable of checking in and caring for your pets on the daily. I am rather flexible and have the time to commit to longer walks and play time, in addition to ensuring physical needs of the pet are meet. I have many toys (and a lot of very durable balls) I can bring to entertain your pets, along with treats, leashes, and everyday care items. I only provide services at the client's house, but I can bring any additional materials the client may deem important.

Adrianna truly went above and beyond for Knox, especially on such short notice. I was in a stressful situation needing a last-minute sitter, and she stepped in with kindness, professionalism, and genuine care. From the moment she met Knox, it was clear she was attentive, patient, and experienced. She kept me updated, made sure Knox felt safe and comfortable, and treated him like her own. I can’t express how grateful I am for her reliability and compassion. Adrianna is someone you can fully trust with your pet, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional dog sitter. I will absolutely be booking her again.

About: Hi! I'm Brizza, a 24-year-old Animal Science student at Sam Houston State University with 9 years of experience in veterinary medicine. I'm currently based in League City for the summer and look forward to caring for pets in the surrounding area. I've worked as both a veterinary assistant and technician. My experience allows me to recognize abnormal behavior early, administer oral medications and injections, monitor pets for signs of illness or discomfort, and provide compassionate, attentive care. Whether your pet needs medication, extra patience, lots of playtime, or simply someone who understands their unique personality, I'm happy to help. I currently volunteer with a wildlife rehabilitator to continue expanding my knowledge while building experience for veterinary school. I'm comfortable caring dogs, cats, and other small mammals, including seniors and pets with medical needs. Animals have always been my passion, and I treat every pet as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, and respect. I'm dependable, responsible, and committed to keeping both you and your pet comfortable through regular updates, photos, and communication while you're away. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or has special medical needs, I'd be honored to provide the same level of care and attention I would give my own pets. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family members! As a full-time Animal Science student, I have a flexible schedule this summer and am available for drop-in visits, dog walks, and house sitting throughout the week in the League City area. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, so I make it a priority to give every pet plenty of attention, exercise, enrichment, and affection. I'll happily follow your pet's normal routine—including feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, and bedtime routines—to help them feel comfortable and stress-free while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. With nearly a decade of veterinary experience, I'm trained to recognize subtle changes in behavior that may indicate illness, pain, or stress and can administer oral medications and injections when needed. I practice calm, low-stress handling and tailor my approach to each pet's personality, whether they're energetic, anxious, shy, or senior. I will treat your home with the same respect I would my own, carefully follow all care instructions, keep your pet's environment clean and secure, and provide regular updates with photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

I do own two fur babies a beagle name Gator and a blue heeler name Honey. I have taken care of older dogs and as well as puppies.

I do work part-time and do go to school on Tuesday and Thursday but that is all done in the mornings. I am more available in the evenings and weekends. There will be some days and especially holidays where i will be able to take pet sit more frequently. I am down for either crating or not in your home I can work with both. I have taken care of dogs who love to sleep on the same bed and those who need to be crated. I don’t do boarding at my house just because I do live my family and my dogs can be a rowdy when it comes to other dogs. What ever you need I am up for the job.

Najwa was our first experience using the Rover app and we couldn’t be happier! She dropped in to look after our fur babies while we were traveling with so much love and care, going well above and beyond what was expected. She was quick and easy to communicate with and provided us with great photos and updates during each visit which helped assure me that they were in the best of hands. Definitely will be using Najwa again in the future!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - El Lago

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in El Lago on Rover is $17.76 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 3,565 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across El Lago. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a El Lago stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Lago 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!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in El Lago with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in El Lago. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.

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.
