“Xingcheng was absolutely fantastic! From the very beginning, communication was prompt, professional, and reassuring. She took wonderful care of my dog and made sure I was updated with photos and messages, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend Xingcheng to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. I would absolutely book with her again without hesitation.”
“Sha was a really great pet sitter for Kulfi. It was easy to communicate with her even during the midst of the holidays which are a very busy time, and everything went really smoothly. Thank you so much!”
About: I have taken care of neighbor's cats since I was 12, providing meals, medicine and love. I have had my own dog for 9 years who I also care for. I volunteered at SAVE animal shelter for 3 years taking care of cats. I just graduated high school so I am free this entire summer before I leave for college in the beginning of September 2026. I work at the YMCA on Mondays and Wednesdays from 4-7 but am free the rest of the week. I can easily take care of the pet in my clients home. I have experience doing so; cleaning litter boxes, taking care of the house, cleaning up messes, and more. I can water plants or provide any other house services while the owners are away.
“Brittany took great care of our two dogs while we were away on vacation! Our dogs are small breeds and are older, and Brittany was super attentive to their routines and needs. She kept in communication with us and sent such incredible photos of our “boys” while we were gone! We were able to enjoy being away knowing they were being cared for by someone who is very knowledgeable and was giving them lots of love and attention. We will definitely request Brittany again! Thank you!”
About: I have always loved animals. Beginning in middle school, I would always volunteer at shelters because I saw the great need for help with so many dogs that had been abandoned or rescued from neglect. and I myself decided to adopt a few of them and give them the life meant for a prince or princess:) I am always vigilant to their wellbeing, I love playing with them, they give so much unconditional love. I love my dogs with all my heart. I currently work with an attorney as a paralegal in Princeton Junction, NJ. I get plenty of breaks during the day, and that’s when I take care of dogs! 🐕 🐕🐕 I can always work around your schedule and your needs. I can dog sit at night, and/or overnight boarding, Saturday and Sunday all day:) I am also available during the day to walk dogs and check up on them❤️ My parents have a big fenced in yard, which is great for my 2 dogs to play around. There’s also a big dog park not far for more playtime and there’s plenty of playgrounds too to take the doggies for a walk.
About: Why just walk when you can walk and train? Reinforce positive walking skills, drop in visits, puppy care, cat care, and overnight care. Trust a professional, positive reinforcement trainer with your beloved pets in the comfort of your home. With over a decade of experience in veterinary care as well, Amy adds a keen eye to ensure your pets are safe and healthy while you are away. Working with dogs is my full time career and it’s the best job in the world! I only take clients within a 30 minute radius so I am able to give each pet the time they deserve, allowing me to rotate the pets in my care. I am a highly detailed, perfectionist individual. Keeping your pets and your home safe and cared for is my top priority. Ensuring home security and client protocols are always implemented, along with feeding, water, play, exercise and love are essential!
“My kitty was very happy when Megan came. She kept us update with pictures and messages. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing our little guy was being taken care of.”
About: I’ve cared for pups of all ages — from playful little ones to sweet senior dogs who need a gentler touch.

Whether it’s an energetic pup or a senior dog who needs extra care, I provide a trusted environment where every tail can wag with confidence.
“Emma is fabulous! If you’re looking for a reliable and safe environment for your pet, she’s the one to call. She’s incredibly knowledgeable about dogs and took excellent care of my two labs. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Hannah was a great communicator throughout her visits with my dog. She was very understanding, punctual, and took pictures and took great care of my dog. I look forward to using her again in the future.”
About: Older brother to like, a lot of puppies. I've raised and trained dogs at Cream Puff Labradoodles for 4 wonderful years. I have a passion for animals and all things natural. I've spent 4 years working directly with animals, providing care, medications, cleaning, and training. I am fascinated by animals and nature, and always find myself wondering what they are thinking. Dog safety was my main responsibility at our boarding kennel. Learning their body language, behaviors, and quirks is essential for gaining an animals trust and comfort.
About: I’ve owned small, medium, and large sized dogs of many different breeds throughout my entire life. I have a magical connection with dogs. I care for every dog deeply and will provide attention, engagement, and exercise to your beloved pet! I have also owned special needs dogs, so I know the care and tenderness needed to ensure they are happy and comfortable. I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate your pets’ needs. I have a car and a bike, and can drive to your home anywhere around Davis, Woodland, Dixon, and parts of Sac I do not have a pet of my own currently, so I have the flexibility to be away from home for overnight visits. I am very responsible, punctual, and professional. I have 15 years of providing professional dog sitting and dog walking services, as well as car sitting, and pet boarding. I can also administer oral medications, groom, and wash your dog. I have a very flexible schedule all days of the week and weekends! I am a grad student, and my schedule is very light right now. When I care for pets for extended stays, I am actively engaging with the pets all the time. I stay home with them a lot so they don’t get lonely, take frequent walks, have lots of play time, respect their feeding and sleeping schedules, and most importantly have a ton of fun. I will make sure your dog has as much of a vacation (or staycation) as you do.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Harlingen
Xingcheng (Connie) looked after my two boys, Bobby and Jack, for 14 days while I was traveling, and she is hands-down the most reliable and best cat sitter I have ever had! She connected with them instantly, played with them regularly, and sent me tons of daily pictures and videos. I always felt completely at ease knowing they were in such excellent care. She gave me regular updates on their food and kept the litter box spotlessly clean. Communication was fantastic throughout the entire stay, so I always knew exactly how they were doing. I will definitely book with Connie again and highly recommend her!
Brittany took care of my 3 cats as if they were her own. I was concerned about having to travel and leaving my 17 yr old cat that needs daily meds. Brittany followed his schedule and made sure he had his med and supplements every day. My two younger cats also enjoyed her care, company and playtime. Brittany was easy to communicate with, sent pictures of my fur babies daily, and as an extra bonus I found my mail neatly placed on my table. Thank you Brittany! It’s such a relief to know your fur babies are in good hands when you’re away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Harlingen on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
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.
