“Mariah did a fantastic job dropping in to check on my cat. She is an excellent communicator and went out of her way to provide the best service possible! I will absolutely re-book in the future, thanks again Mariah!”
“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.”
“Katie took good care of our cat while we were away on a trip. Even though our cat is very shy, Katie was able to interact and play with our cat. Katie always sent pictures and wrote detailed notes about how our cat was doing, which we appreciate. Our cat is healthy and very well thanks to Katie!”
“Ashley was wonderful. She’s available last minute and went over and beyond. I needed her to stay extra for a furniture delivery as well as sit my doggies and she was down for all. Thank you to her. Definitely book for yours.”
“Kind and loving care is what I wanted for my fur babies and Madeline delivered in abundance! I will not hesitate to seek services from Madeline in the future. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”
“This was Heather's third time caring for our 2 cats. Once again, she was absolutely wonderful! Having someone we can consistently trust makes such a difference when we travel. She checked on them twice a day, made sure both of our cats were fed on schedule, administered their medications carefully, and kept everything clean and tidy. Also, we really appreciate the updates and peace of mind she provides while we’re away.”
“This is the second time we have used Tiffany for a long weekend, three visits a day. She is always prompt, dogs are happy in the photos and she is very responsive. Will book her again!”
“Our initial meet up made me feel grate about having Desiree check in on my gal! She covered all the basis when going over instructions, even things I didn't think of. Definitely would rebook!”
“After having a bad experience with a previous Rover dog sitter I was hesitant to use it again, but Madeline was great from beginning to end. She took good care of both my babies and they seemed to really like her. I would definitely rebook.”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Alexis. She took such great care of our babies while we were away and gave us so much peace of mind. She made sure they were well loved, kept active with walks, and stayed on their normal routine. One of our favorite things was the pictures she sent! We absolutely loved getting updates and seeing how happy and comfortable our pups were. It meant so much to know they were in such good hands. We truly appreciate the care and attention she gave them and would definitely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend! 🐾💛”
“Rachel is so great! She takes excellent care of our fur babies while we are out of town. We love having her watch our pets. We would definitely recommend her to anyone.”

“Thank you so much, Thi, for taking such wonderful care of my shy kitty. I know she appreciated your patience and kindness, even if she didn’t quite show it—haha. It meant so much to me knowing she was in such good hands. I’m also incredibly grateful for the extra care you showed to the neighborhood stray kitties I feed. Your thoughtfulness truly went above and beyond!”
“This was my first time using Jeremy to watch my two dogs and he was fantastic! Jeremy was on time and sent lots of photos and videos. One of my dogs can be a little nervous around new people, but Jeremy did well with him! I will definitely use Jeremy again for future dog sitting needs!”

Tiffany did an amazing job looking over my cats while I was out of town. I would definitely recommend her. She was on time, interacted with the cats, cleaned up when they made an accident even though I told her she didn’t need to and I’d get to it. She is fantastic.
Really amazing ! Could tell she truly loves taking care of animals. Followed instructions precisely. Great communication before and during, and plenty of pictures. I have an older pet, so it especially made my vacation stress free, knowing she was in good hands. Will definitely use Jacqueline again !
Jackie did an amazing job caring for our cats, Artemis and Aphrodite, over New Year’s weekend. She was attentive, communicative, and clearly cared about them. The detailed Rover cards were great, she brought in packages for us, and she even emptied the litter on her last night—such a thoughtful touch. Aphrodite warmed up to her immediately, and we really appreciated her flexibility with short notice. We’ll definitely be booking her again and recommending her to others!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Friendswood on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 4,452 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Friendswood. 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 Friendswood 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.
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 Friendswood. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 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.
