“Hunter did a great job taking care of my dogs. They liked him from the moment he walked in the house, so I felt at ease leaving them in his care. Hunter kept me updated throughout the time with phone calls and texts. And he also cleaned up after them when one had an accident. I was pleased with the service. Highly recommended.”
“Tracy was such a great sitter for our multiple pets while we were away. We have a senior dog that was having some issues while we were away and Tracy took incredible care of her and kept us updated with all information without having to ask. She was very patient and kind with our pets and definitely recommend her to others!”

“Leaving for the holidays without your pet is always tough, but knowing our dog was in the hands of Brittany and Samantha eased our minds! We received lots of photos and (no surprise) our pup was having the time of her life! We have a dog with some special needs (medical and behavioral) and Brittany and Samantha always do an amazing job at taking care of her. They also always leave our home looking so clean after they stay over!”

About: I would love to take care of your babies while you are away. I will talk to them , cuddle them, feed and walk them. I’m am currently retired and looking forward to pet sitting. I have another friend that enjoys this so much, and I think I will like it just as much as she does. I will make sure there is always clean water, feed in the morning and evenings, or as often as you like. I wash the bowls about every other day. I have 3 beds for my chihuahua, one in the living room, bedroom and dining room where my computer sits. She sits in my lap when she wants, she lets me know when she needs to go out and I keep pee pads down for her just in case, and keep the area clean.
“Sabrina took great care of our boxer beagle baby for about a week when we went on a trip to Europe. Rocket is very reactive to other dogs so we always worry when we leave him with a sitter. But Sabrina’s obvious confidence from years of experience of taking care of even larger aggressive dogs allowed her to connect with Rocket immediately during their first meeting! He did great with her and she sent us daily photos and updates to let us know how our boy was doing. Such a stress relief knowing he was in great hands. Highly recommend Sabrina!”
About: I’ve dealt with all types of animals - shy, aggressive, specific needs, and the ones who need extra attention. My family dog and previous pup needed oral medication, shots, and had specific diets. I’m home on weekends for the foreseeable future and will always welcome extra fur babies to my place. Live on acre+ of land and have accessible trails within walking distance as well. Have pool and extra room if your doggo needs their own space while I’m away. Willing to do pop ins for those who work longer hours, welcome fur babies to my house, or give walks during the day. My night schedule allows me plenty of flexibility and always looking for ways to fill my schedule. My dogs love extra roommates. I work nights starting at midnight and usually off by 8:30-9am. I’m off Friday Saturday and go in Sunday night. I don’t go out and love daily walks with my doggos. I have a fenced 1.5acre fenced backyard with access to trails within walking distance. While away I leave my dogs out and they have access to my bed, couch, and spare rooms. If more comfortable can keep them in spare room or kenneled depending on your preference.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Godley on Rover is $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 1,112 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Godley. 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 Godley 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 Godley 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 Godley 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.
