“My two cats seemed very content when I returned from my 5-day trip and I appreciated the pictures after every visit. Kaitlyn was also very friendly responsive anytime I had questions. I will definitely recommend her to friends and family in the area and book with her again myself.”
“Mia is great. She immediately bonded with Fancy and her services were top notch. She is very prompt arriving each day when we asked. She took care of Fancy’s food and water each day. When I had to stay away longer she gladly took the extra day and told me how to add it to my Rover order. She communicated with us each day with texts and photos. She immediately replied to any questions we had. We would strongly recommend Mia for your pet.”
“Ashley was great. This was the first time having a sitter for my 3 dogs. She had a total of 5 visits over 3 days. Ashley was on time & quick to respond with pictures of all 3 dogs plus 2 cats. I will book her again.”
“Peace of Mind for My Five Cats! Kaitlyn has been an absolute blessing! As the owner of five cats, it gives me tremendous peace of mind knowing they are in such caring and capable hands when I'm away. She always follows instructions carefully, pays attention to the little details, and genuinely cares about my fur babies' well-being. Kaitlyn is friendly, dependable, professional, and always willing to help whenever I need her. She consistently goes above and beyond to make sure my cats are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It's not easy finding someone you can completely trust with your pets and your home, but Kaitlyn has earned that trust many times over. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate pet sitter!!!”
“Christen did such an amazing job taking care of our dog and cat! I really appreciated the walks and photos. I definitely felt that Mango and Virgo were getting great care with Christen, allowing for me and my girls to have a wonderful vacation.”
“Super sweet and treated my pets like they were her own! Came to some very content little ladies. Tessie has fantastic communication and handled their meds professionally as well. Will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Kaitlyn was fantastic! She asked a bunch of questions early on to understand my dog's needs and kept me informed of concerns that came up during the drop-in visits. I highly recommend her as a sitter, especially if you have a large breed dog. I will definitely schedule her for future drop-ins.”
“Found Abbey and we love her and will forever use her for our dog sitting needs! She adapted well to our nervous boy and had him feeling comfortable and happy after her first visit.”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I have for animals. I’m 29 years old, born and raised in Louisiana, and I’ve been caring for pets for over 5 years. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, not just a job or side hustle. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets because they’re family. I know the importance of making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m experienced with both dogs and cats of different personalities, ages, and energy levels — from playful puppies and kittens to older pets that need extra patience and gentle care. I treat every pet like they’re my own, giving them attention, affection, playtime, and a calm environment so they feel secure and happy. I want pet owners to have peace of mind knowing their babies are in caring, reliable hands. I’m currently working part time so I would have plenty of time for your loved ones. I’m available Monday-Sunday Mornings at 8am to 12pm . Evenings 6:30 to 8pm. I’m able to provide pets with a comfortable indoor space in my spare bedroom, giving them a calm and safe environment while in my care. I also have a spacious backyard where pets can enjoy fresh air and outdoor time safely on adjustable leashes, allowing them room to move around comfortably and stretch their legs based on their needs and activity level.
“Johanna was great! Reliable, kind and calming. She sent several pics a day and it appears our pup was well cared for while we were gone, which was such a weight off our shoulders! Would love to have her as a sitter again in the future.”
About: I grew up with with at least 2 dogs (from chihuahuas all the way to Great Danes). I love going to the dog park with my pups and running around the yard with them. I also have experience in dog grooming. My family is in the process of renovating their house, so I unfortunately don’t have the space to board any animals, but in the next year I will have the space to board 5 animals. In our family our dogs aren’t pets they are family. I’d love to have the opportunity to get to know your fur babies and have play dates with my fur babies. Thank you for your time, and I can’t wait to get to know you and you fur family!
“Lisa did a fantastic job with our dog, Dewey. Not only was she on time and kept us informed every visit, she also went out of her way to give him special treats to help with storm anxiety. I highly recommend Lisa as your next Rover sitter!”
About: My background includes assisting with the daily care of dogs, cats, and small animals, including feeding, walking, cleaning, and monitoring overall health and behavior. I also have experience in farm settings, where I’ve worked with larger animals and learned proper handling, feeding routines, and maintaining clean, safe environments. Pet care fits well into my daily routine, as I prioritize time for feeding, walks, playtime, and regular check-ins. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide consistent, reliable care throughout the week while maintaining each pet’s routine and needs. I provide attentive and personalized care based on each pet’s routine and needs. In both my home and my client’s home, I ensure pets are fed on schedule, given regular walks or exercise, and have plenty of playtime and attention. I maintain a clean, safe environment and closely monitor their behavior and well-being. I also follow any specific instructions provided, including medication, dietary needs, or special routines, and keep owners updated to ensure peace of mind while they’re away.
About: I’m 18 and home for the summer, and I’ve been pet sitting for about 4 years. I’ve grown up around animals my whole life, having had 9 cats and 6 dogs with varying ages, so I’m very comfortable with all kinds of personalities and needs. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m reliable, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I take my dogs for walks every day around noon to make sure they get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and attention. I also feed my dogs and cats twice a day (morning & night) and stick to a consistent routine to keep them happy and healthy. I’m home for the summer, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the care and attention they deserve. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their environment. I follow all instructions closely and keep pets on their normal routines, including feeding, walks, and playtime. I maintain a clean and safe space, pay attention to their behavior, and make sure they feel relaxed and loved. I treat every pet like they’re my own.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Gonzales on Rover is $17.2 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 550 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Gonzales. 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 Gonzales 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 Gonzales. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% 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 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.
