“Kristina was the perfect person to attend to my furry kitties. I think, I am sure she spoiled them for I now have to engage with them more than before. I was hesitant to have someone come to my home but Kristina proofed to be the perfect person. I would highly recommend her and yes she will be my go to person for any of my furry kids. Thank you Kristina for giving me a peace of mind while I was away. You are a gem and a blessing to our family.”

“My very shy German Shepherd loves Tiffany. She is calm, gentle, and really knows how to approach dogs, even shy ones like Ernie. He always gives her kisses. She's also quite knowledgeable about training and gave me some great tips. She has visited multiple times and I will keep calling on her!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters? No one has magic hands like I do! I truly believe I give the best scratches and belly rubs, and I think your pet would agree. Aside from that, I LOVE to play! I never want your pet to feel bored or ignored. I believe they should get plenty of playtime, attention, and exercise so that when you come home after a long day of work, they’re happy, tired, and ready to relax with you. My goal is for your pet to be just as excited to see me again as I am to see them! I would love the opportunity to care for your pet more than once so I can build a genuine bond with them and become someone they feel comfortable and happy around. Although I’m new to Rover, I’m not new to caring for dogs. I’ve taken care of pets simply because I love animals and want to make sure they’re happy, safe, and cared for. I regularly help take care of my boyfriend’s five dogs when he’s away, so I’m comfortable caring for multiple dogs and making sure each one gets the attention they need. I hope you’ll give me the chance to show you that I can care for your pet just like they’re my own. I may be a new Rover sitter, but I’m ready to give your pet all the love, attention, playtime, and, of course, those magic scratches they deserve! I’m currently a full-time student at Texas State University, so I do have a busy schedule, but I take my bookings seriously and would never want to commit to something I couldn’t follow through with. I’m available for drop-ins and walks during the week, and on weekends I’m available all day. Because of my weekend availability, house sitting is my preferred service, since I can give your pet plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I’m happy to work around your schedule when I can and will always make sure your pet gets the care and attention they deserve. Unfortunately, I’m not able to host pets in my own home because my apartment is a little too small. However, I’m more than happy to house sit in your home! I’m very attentive to your pet’s routine, likes, dislikes, and any specific instructions you have for me. I want to make sure I’m providing care exactly the way you would want it. 🐕 Dog Walking Your dog’s safety is my top priority! If your dog isn’t comfortable around unfamiliar dogs, I’ll keep a safe distance from other dogs we come across on our walk. I’d rather give them plenty of space than risk an uncomfortable situation. Since we’ll be outside, I’ll also make sure your pup gets plenty of water and has a comfortable, safe walk. 🐾 Drop-Ins For drop in visits, I’ll make sure your pet is doing well, has everything they need, and gets plenty of love, attention, and, of course lots of scratches! I’ll also follow any feeding, bathroom, medication, or other instructions you leave for me.

About: I’ve been house sitting on and off for almost two years! I’ve grown up with pets my whole life (I’ve had dogs, cats, and even a lizard!) I absolutely love animals, and growing up I was taught that our pets were part of the family, and I live by that sentiment now as an adult. Currently, I am a full-time student and I also work a part-time job, which can make it hard to be available for extensive periods of time. However, I am extremely flexible in going back and forth from multiple responsibilities, and have no issue sitting overnight! I think as much as it is important to meet all of your pets basic needs, it is equally as important to make sure they get plenty of attention while their owners are away. In the past, I’ve spent any time I could playing with my pets and keeping them company as they await the return of their owners.

About: I am a freshman at TXST and the hardest part about moving here was leaving my pets. I have 3 dogs back home: 2 goldens and a small mutt we got at the pound for my fifth birthday. I pet sit all the time when my parents & grandparents leave town. I’m currently balancing school and a part time job but my schedule stays exactly the same every week ( my job is only open very specific hours so i have the exact same shifts every week). This would be great if you plan to be a return customer because we could easily get a routine down. All of my pets have passed from old age so i think i’m doing a pretty good job keeping them alive! In all seriousness i will take care of your pets like they’re my own, i cry over animal shelter commercials.

About: Until I moved to start my MA, I’ve been lucky enough to spend my entire life with dogs of all ages and energy levels by my side. I’d love to show your companion some love and care while you’re away. I’m available 7 days a week in the mornings and evenings and I’m available all day on the weekends. Between studying and teaching as I pursue my MA in archaeology at Texas State University, I often take breaks by gardening and hiking, and I would love to share the fresh air with a furry friend. Taking your companion out for a walk or playdate would make my day! I’m unable to own a pet at my current residence, but I’m happy to provide in-home care at your residence or in a public space. I’m comfortable feeding/watering, bathroom needs, and spending time with pets indoors or outdoors.

About: I genuinely love animals and am happy to carr for yours like they are my own. Lots of love, snuggles and and playtime. I've had several senior pets and am confident in caring for them and have raised dogs from puppies and am comfortable caring for them as well. I work from home and can work from anywhere so pet sitting works well with my schedule. There are only a few days a week where I have meetings at a particular time, otherwise I can work around the pet needs. Lq I care for pets by creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment that keeps normal routines as consistent as possible. I follow each pets feeding, medication, exercise, and care instructions carefully and make sure doors, and gates are secure. Building trust is very important to me. I take time to get to know each pet's personality, respect their boundaries, and provide plenty of patience, , attention, and positive interaction. I also keep the home clean and tidy, properly clean up after pets, and watch for any changes in their behavior, appetite and overall well-being.

About: I've been around dogs my entire life—big and small, high-energy pups that never stop moving, and laid-back dogs that love to lounge all day.

I'm a college student and available for dog sitting during the following times: Monday–Friday : 12 PM – 12 AM Saturday-Sunday: 6AM - 12 AM I provide safe, reliable care for dogs, ensuring they stay comfortable and happy. I follow their routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs. With plenty of attention and playtime, I make sure every pup feels safe and comfortable while their owner is away.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats. I've always had a passion for animals, especially after growing up with several pets, so I love seeing everyone's cute pets I have a completely open schedule at the moment. So I'll be free at any moment and won't turn down a request unless already doing one. I try to make it as seamless as possible since pets can usually get stressed without their parents. Just extra love and following the routine you have already set.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Fentress

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Fentress is $16 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $24 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 October 2026, there are 4,565 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Fentress. 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 .

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 , 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 Fentress. 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
