“Katie and Robert are just amazing. They treated our pet and home like theirs and they even went above and beyond during Hurricane Beryl to make sure our Pepper is taken care of and stocked with her food while we were out of the country and the hurricane is about to hit. They even came right after the storm to make sure she was ok and even checked on the house. We can’t thank them enough for the love they showed to our little cat and care to our house for three weeks. We will definitely hire them again, and fully recommend them!! Much appreciate! Thank you Katie and Robert you were a blessing to us.”
About: I've taken care of animals since i was a child. From dogs to cats I've gained experience working, playing with and taking care of pet animals. Majority of my experience is with dogs of all sizes and breeds. Currently I am in the process of getting a full time job, so I'll be able to take care of your pups all day on my days off and before and after I work! I prefer to care for pets in their home where they are comfortable, in the exact way the client does when they take care of their pets. If the client has a set routine, then I'll follow it, otherwise I care for the pets by making sure they potty, eat food, playtime/go for a walk and clean any messes they may make.
“Alex was super great! He will be our go to sitter for our next trip! He took care of all the little extras, had detailed notes, sent lots of good pictures, and bonded with our cat! This was our second attempt in the area with finding a new sitter and Alex is the one! Highly recommend!”
“We use Danika for our baby Khan. A 4 year old German Shepherd. Khan loves her and is as excited to see her as he is us. She sends pictures which is reassuring when you are away.”
“Crystal did an amazing job. My cat was so happy and never felt alone. She was well-fed and taken care of beautifully. I even received a couple of photos, which I really appreciated. Crystal also kept me updated, letting me know when she was on her way and when she arrived. When took care my girl. Thank you so much Crystal. You did amazing. Can’t wait work with you again.”
“The best cat sitter! Noelle took care of my 3 cats and did an absolutely amazing job. She is very reliable, communicative, and sent lots of photos! It was so nice to be able to have peace of mind knowing they were taken care of so well when I was away. And I came home to happy well cared for kitties!”
About: I raised two wonderful, well adjusted, obedient Chows (at the same time, I know) with discipline, boundaries and consistency; and of course, my absolute love for animals. I am comfortable around animals and respect them. Animals all have their own unique selves and I take the time and effort to get to know and understand that unique self. I currently work full time in the Galleria area and live in Missouri City, but I have time and want to spend it with your pet. We have a fenced in yard. Our dog pretty much only wants to go out when he needs to because he is elderly. He's a terrier, so he fancies himself the boss of us. He is the boss of my dad (he is technically my father's dog), but he knows I don't indulge in his high jinks. He's a rascal.
“Joanna was amazing to work with! From the moment we met, I trusted her to come in my home and care for my sweet puppy. She is experienced and knows what she is doing, and I felt very comfortable with her. She is prompt, easy to communicate with and really cared for my dog. She will be my first phone call in the future!”
“From every service that I ever got, this is by far the best! Alicia has the best heart and goes above and beyond for us! I would trio her with literally anything, my dog loves her so much!”
About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life since childhood, and I currently take care of my two dogs and my cat. I love teaching dogs tricks, giving calmer pets cuddles and attention, and running around with active pets! I am a commuter student with mostly online classes, so I have lots of free time. I’m available Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays anytime before 6:00 p.m.; Tuesdays and Thursdays from 1 to 6:00 p.m.; and my weekends are available by request, feel free to message me! I will follow your pet’s routine as much as I can for drop-ins. I can handle feeding them, bathroom breaks, litter box scooping for cats, and of course giving them attention! I will attempt to handle their medication if needed, based off instructions and experience required I will be honest about whether or not I can fulfill that requirement. For dog walks, I will keep their pace and secure them on their leash accordingly.
About: Hey! I was introduced to animals of all kinds at an extremely young age. I’ve taken care of everything from dogs to cats to exotic animals such as reptiles! There is no limit for me, I am open to caring for any and all animals in any way possible. I take a lot of pride in caring for animals and humans alike, it is very fulfilling to me. Tell me what you need and you got it, I will give you peace of mind when it comes to your precious ones! I’m currently free just about 24/7 for animal care as I am working on making my own company and it is a slow process. It is possible to even do same day scheduling with me frequently! I have 1000sqft apartment with two corgis of my own and two chinchillas! Ideally I am looking to go to a client’s home, but it’s possible to take in a pet with me as long as the pet is cooperative enough to respect my own dog’s space when needed.
“Erika was such an amazing help with this last minute service I needed! She was super sweet to my precious dog baby and she was very thorough and highly dependable! 10 out of 10 service and i would certainly recommend and use her again in the future!”
About: I’ve loved animals my entire life, and have volunteered at my local animal shelter from ages nine to fifteen. I only left because of school and the need to get a job. I then worked at a grooming and boarding facility for almost three years. Now I work at an animal clinic as a kennel assistant for our boarding pets. I currently work full-time Monday through Friday with on and off again weekends, but have plenty of free time on the days I work a half day. On the days I work doubles however, I’d only have time to stop by somewhere near work as I only get an hour break. Otherwise, I’m free after 1pm or 6pm on certain days, or before I go in at 1pm. That can be discussed in more detail when required. As someone who has worked with many different boarding pets throughout the years I do believe taking care of pets in your own home will add more comfort to them as well as yourself. It’s easier to care for them on a schedule they are familiar with while in a space they know and love. I always treat them as if they are my own because I know I’d wish the same for my fur babies if I ever had someone watch over them.
“Whitney helped me out last minute dropping in on my dogs. I fully trust her with my high energy dog and my older lazy dog too! The dogs always seem happy when I get home. Thanks again Whitney!”
“I cannot recommend Paul enough! Watching my older pug, Baillee, with special needs was no easy task, but Paul was absolutely fantastic. He was patient, attentive, and followed every detail of her care perfectly. Getting daily photos and sweet updates put my mind at ease while I was away. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pug! If you need a sitter who truly loves and understands senior dogs, look no further!"”
About: I’m an experienced dog trainer with a natural connection to animals and a deep understanding of canine behavior. My family and I give your four‑legged loved ones structure, affection, and constant attention, creating a calm, safe home environment when they need it, and a fun, playful atmosphere when laughter and energy are what help them thrive ⛵️ I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I grew up caring for animals, playing in nature, and welcoming every furry friend who crossed my path. I’ve never purchased a pet as they always seem to find me first 😊 My daughters are the best affection‑giving, playful, and gentle training team! Together, we make sure every pup receives the love, patience, and individualized care they need; whether they’re puppies learning routines, seniors needing comfort, shy pups gaining confidence, or dogs who simply need extra reassurance and calm guidance. We’re comfortable with routines, medications, crate training, potty schedules, and helping pups settle in smoothly during transitions. Our home is gentle, structured, and full of love, perfect for dogs who thrive with consistency, warmth, and a nurturing touch. We welcome all pups sizes and colors ❕️ Pet care is part of our daily rhythm❣️ We naturally build feeding, playtime, walks, and check‑ins into our family routine, and we also include pups in simple daily activities with the kids, always respecting each pet parent’s instructions and comfort level. We keep a calm, structured environment, so whether it’s morning potty breaks, afternoon play, or evening wind‑down time, your pup is included in our schedule with consistent attention and care🤗 Your furry loved ones becomes part of our flow ! I keep a calm, structured environment where your furry loved ones are supervised, safe, and treated like family. I make sure each one feels included and supported, whether they need extra reassurance, confidence‑building, or simply a cozy place to relax. I’m attentive to their emotional needs as much as their physical ones, and I always follow each pet parent’s instructions with care🫶 When caring for furry loved ones in a pet parent’s home, I respect their routines exactly as written and follow instructions closely. I maintain a clean, organized space, keep feeding and medication schedules precise, and follow all household rules. I supervise pups closely, make sure they feel secure in their familiar environment, and send consistent updates so pet parents always know their furry loved ones are safe, comfortable, and happy🌞 I also pay attention to small details, from their favorite resting spot to their unique quirks, so they feel fully supported while you’re away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fifth Street
Genaro was quick to respond to my last-minute inquiry, which I greatly appreciated! He was attentive, dependable, and caring when looking after our cat, Remi. His communication throughout our trip gave us peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. We truly appreciate his help and would happily book with him again!
We couldn’t be happier with our experience! Our three dogs aren’t always the easiest crew to manage, but she handled them incredibly well and quickly became best buds with all three. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands while we were away. She was reliable, caring, and clearly has a great way with dogs. We came home to three happy pups and will absolutely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend!
I would 100% recommend Kaitlyn B. She met and exceeded all of our expectations. She was very personable and easy to communicate with and gave us peace of mind that our dogs were in good hands while we were away. A bonus that made me smile was her daily updates that showed she was paying close attn to our dogs- she really captured each of their personalities and habits. I hope she is available next time we go out of town!
JaQuia was absolutely amazing with my dog! From start to finish, her communication was excellent, keeping me updated and giving me complete peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear that she has a genuine passion for dogs and truly cares about their well-being. My dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. I highly recommend JaQuia to anyone looking for a reliable, professional, and caring sitter through Rover. We will definitely be booking with her again! 🐾
Joyce (Xinyi) has been dropping in on my dog for a couple weeks now and has been very communicative and helpful! My dog Ava immediately rolled over for belly scratches on the first drop in, so she gets Ava’s stamp of approval as well. We will continue to reach out to her for help.
Madeleine is an all star dog sitter. My hounds are happy and healthy and have her to thank for filling in on our Christmas vacation. Madeleine is responsive in her communication and meticulous with care instructions. We will most certainly request her services for future dog care needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Fifth Street is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 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 5,710 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Fifth Street. 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 Fifth Street. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
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.
