About: Recently retired from working with people with disabilities and now extending my care to four legged fur-babies. All types are welcome. Cared and owned animals (cats, dogs) my entire adult life. With my new free-time, I am looking forward to new adventures, helping pets and owners when they need responsible and loving care. I create a schedule to fit the needs of my clients with my newfound retirement. With that being said, flexibility is the name of the game. I will treat your pet and your home as if they were my own, following all rules and instructions that you establish. In your absence, I want your pet to feel as relaxed and comfortable as if you were here yourself.
“Katey was amazing. She was very communicative and attuned to my pets needs and personalities. She was reliable and I came home to happy pets. I would definitely use her again!!”
“Robyn was great! She was super flexible and helped out in a pinch. Cooper had a great time with her and seemed to like her as soon as he met her. We'll definitely reach out to Robyn again in the near future!”
“Brandon did a great job caring for my Golden Retriever! He sent lots of photos and was very communicative throughout the whole time I was gone. I came home to a tidy house and a happy dog. Will definitely use him again!”
“Lani took excellent care of my high energy Lab while I was out of town for the weekend. This was my dog’s first time with a sitter, and I was very nervous because my dog is highly active, needy, sometimes anxious, very bonded to me, and used to me being with me all the time. Lani was able to meet all of her needs and make her feel comfortable while I was away. She is punctual, reliable, trustworthy, and sent regular updates and photos. I’m so thankful!”
About: Brad and I both have enjoyed our own cat family members and those of others, all our lives. I love how each kitty and doggy has its own personality and marvel at how they are such a gift frim God to us humans! We also look forward to raising some travel funds! I work for my home office 2 to 3 days a week and I'm home about half the time on weekends. Talk to us we can figure out how we can help you and your pets! We love animals especially cats, love to play with them and pet them, and are very practical and responsible with the instructions in their care. We have had many cats before, usually ones that were destined to be outdoor cats. We know that cats that live primarily indoors tend to live longer. We totally understand owners wanting there has to be totally indoors.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, so I’m no stranger to the work that comes with taking care of them. I’ve helped care for entire puppy litters and have experience with end of life care as well. Over the years, I’ve been around dogs at all stages of life and have learned that no two dogs are exactly alike. I’m comfortable with the responsibility that comes with caring for someone else’s pet, and I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your dog. I have a flexible work schedule and can handle most of my work from home or my phone, which gives me plenty of flexibility to work pet care into my daily routine. I can plan my day around visits, walks, feeding, and spending time with your pet, while making sure they get the attention and care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priorities. I’ll respect your home, follow your instructions, and make sure your pet is cared for in a safe, familiar environment. I understand the trust involved in leaving your pet with someone else, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’ll keep you updated during visits and let you know if anything seems out of the ordinary. I have a dog of my own, so I’m mindful of making sure every pet is comfortable and safe when boarding. If your pet isn’t comfortable around other dogs, I can easily arrange for my dog to stay with family so your pet can have their own space.
About: My golden is my boss, and I love it. I have had dogs my whole life and am finally in a position where I can help other people with their pups. Walking, playing…I can’t wait to meet all your puppers and doggos! I currently work part time so have pretty open availability for walks and playing. I could potentially board but it would have to be a good fit with my pup. I take my dog Simon on 3 walks a day as I live in an apartment. Keeps me active and him happy. I will do whatever the client needs I order to keep their pets as happy as mine.
“Cely and Jordan took amazing care of Ruby and our house while we were out of the country for a week. We appreciated their regular communication through the app because we didn't have cell service, and when we got back Ruby was clearly comfortable with them and being her playful self. They also watered our yard to keep our plants alive and left the house tidy. We'd recommend them to anyone and would definitely work with them again!”
“Annette always makes our dogs feel so comfortable and cozy! We love having her stay at our home when we are away, so the dogs can be spoiled in their own space. She provides the perfect frequency in updates and photos. Highly recommend!”
“Valerie is hands down someone who will care for your pets like they’re her own. She went above and beyond our expectations while watching our dog Fern and our cats for five days while we were out of state. After some less-than-great experiences in the past, I can confidently say those days are over. Valerie gave us total peace of mind — we came home to happy, well-cared-for animals and a house that felt just right. We will absolutely be booking her again.”
“I can't say enough about Samantha's great service to our 2 cats. I was leaving Moon for longest stretch ever and Samatha was so patient and understanding of my constant text messages both before and during the 4 days she cat-sat. Hedda is often shy and hides from cat sitters, but she was ready to greet Samantha each time she came. Samantha was so conscientious with our cats. She stayed much longer than expected to play with Moon, made good decisions when she couldn't reach me one time, and managed to keep him from getting outside (not easy!). I was impressed that she identified Moon's depression right away; and it helped me prepare for our homecoming. I look forward to using Samantha again.”
“I can’t speak highly enough of Dominique! From our initial meet and greet I could tell she was so caring and loved animals! She house sat for us and took care of our dog while we were away for the weekend. She was extremely punctual and responsive, texted me throughout the day with updates, sent me the lots of pictures, and was just such a pleasure to talk to and coordinate things with throughout the entire process. It was so nice to come home to a relaxed dog… we could definitely tell she had been loved on by Dominique! I am already booking with her again! Thank you so much for making this such an easy and stress free process, and for taking such good care of Skylar!”
About: I have taken care of pets my entire life, which has given me a deep, lifelong understanding of animal behavior and needs. My experience goes far beyond standard pet sitting; I am the proud parent of a special needs, insulin-dependent fur baby. Because of this, I am completely comfortable and experienced with administering medications, maintaining strict schedules, and monitoring vital health cues. I know how stressful it can be to leave a pet behind—especially one with medical needs—and I promise to bring that exact same level of devotion, vigilance, and love to your home. I look forward to meeting you and taking care of your fur baby like, they are one of my own! I have taken care of pets my entire life, which has given me a deep, lifelong understanding of animal behavior and needs. My experience goes far beyond standard pet sitting; I am the proud parent of a special needs, insulin-dependent fur baby. Because of this, I am completely comfortable and experienced with administering medications, maintaining strict schedules, and monitoring vital health cues. Because I work from home, pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, allowing me to offer unmatched attentiveness and flexible scheduling throughout the day. Being steps away at all times means I am always available to maintain strict medication timelines, monitor health cues, and provide companionship whenever it's needed. I know how stressful it can be to leave a pet behind—especially one with medical needs—and I promise to bring that exact same level of devotion, vigilance, and love to your home. I look forward to meeting you and taking care of your fur baby like, they are one of my own! When caring for your pets in their own home, my absolute priority is maintaining their familiar routine, comfort, and security while ensuring they remain safely inside. Because my own fur babies are inside-only apartment pets, I am naturally vigilant about home safety, secure entryways, and preventing any accidental escapes. I focus on replicating their exact daily schedules, from precise feeding and medication times to their preferred play and rest windows. By providing dedicated, one-on-one attention in the environment where they feel most confident, I ensure they receive both the physical care and the comforting companionship they need to feel completely relaxed and happy while you are away.
“We loved our experience with Anna! She’s so friendly, communicative, and our dog Sopa loved her!!! She left the house tidy and like she wasn’t even here. She’s such a nice person and great dog sitter! We’ll definitely use her again :)”
“We are so happy with the loving care ty got. We booked last minute and they were so accommodating and great with the cat and provided updates and photos to make us feel at ease”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Grapeview is $35 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $107 per night. 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 3,366 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Grapeview. 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 Grapeview 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 Grapeview 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 Grapeview 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 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.
