“Judith did an excellent job taking care of my senior disabled dog. She asked questions when she was unsure about something and kept me updated about how he was doing. I've come back to a happy dog and would definitely have her sit for me in the future.”


About: I would be a great sitter because I’ve had pets my entire life and understand how important it is to give them proper care, attention, and affection. Growing up in a family where everyone has had pets has given me hands-on experience with different animals and their needs, so I’m comfortable, patient, and reliable when it comes to caring for them. I’m currently unemployed so I have all the time in the world to care for pets. I’m home cooking most of the time I would be the perfect fit. I have a fenced yard & the yard is pretty big so they can roam & run around all day. I don’t have any pets currently with me because I just moved over here.

About: I’ve had pets since I was a toddler, and I currently own two senior dogs and a cat. I’ve volunteered at pet shelters while in college, and am ready to share the love! I’m currently a part time student, and have plenty of free time. I’m available after 3PM on the weekdays, and completely free on the weekends. I have two dogs and usually let them free roam around the house during the day and crate them at night. However, each pet owner has their own routine that I am more than willing to follow.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was young. Family has relied on me to feed and walk their dogs while they were on vacation. I’ve personally have had experience with multiple types of animals, reptiles(crested geckos, bearded dragons), small animals (hamsters), cats, and dogs. I personally have 4 dogs, 1 cat, and a crested gecko. I’m a teacher aide so I’m currently on summer break. I’m available anytime and any day of the week. Once school starts up again I’ll be available after 4pm on weekdays and available all day on the weekends. My dogs have water throughout the day since it’s hot currently. We have the doggie door on so they can enjoy the Sun when they want too. We go on at least 2 walks a day (30 mins- 1 hr) depending on the weather.
About: I have experience with taking care of a variety of pets! exotic/domestic, of all ages! I am comfortable administering medication. Every pet will be in good hands & well cared for like they’re my own. I’ll be available whenever you need me! I work part time between 3:30pm-8pm CST Monday-Friday. Besides this, I am completely open for care. Please ask for more details if you would like. I hope to give each animal a comfy stay while their owner is away! ❤️ Drop in visits are a great quick trip! I head over, make sure they're fed and have water, give them some love & exercise (depending on the animal) & potty break/litter scoop.
“Samantha is the absolute best! Don’t hesitate to book with her! She goes above and beyond for your babies and treats them like her own! It was so amazing to have such peace of mind with knowing our babies were well taken care of! She brought them toys and so much love! My boys are shy but they loved her and will miss her until we book again! Couldn't thank you enough Samantha! 🩷🩷”

About: I have over 11 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, with all of my personal experience being with bully breeds. I currently have three dogs of my own two English Bulldogs and one Pit Bull whom I’ve raised since they were puppies. One is now 11 years old, so I’m very familiar with senior care and adjusting routines as dogs age. All of my dogs require daily medications, regular ear cleanings, and ongoing skin care due to sensitivities, so I’m very comfortable administering oral medications, maintaining hygiene routines, and monitoring for skin or ear flare ups. I understand how important consistency and gentle handling are, especially for dogs with allergies, sensitive skin, or chronic needs. I’m experienced with breed specific concerns common to bully breeds, including heat sensitivity, breathing awareness, and the need for calm, structured care. I treat every dog like family and follow care instructions closely to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is already part of my daily routine, as I care for my own three dogs every day. I build my schedule around feeding, medications, walks, playtime, and care routines, which allows me to be consistent, reliable, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I’m comfortable with morning, midday, and evening visits and understand the importance of sticking to established routines. I prioritize safety, calm environments, and close supervision at all times. I have extensive experience caring for bully breeds and understand their specific needs, including heat sensitivity, skin and ear care, and proper handling. I carefully follow all owner instructions, administer medications as directed, and maintain clean, safe spaces. I monitor behavior, health, and comfort closely and provide regular updates so you feel confident your pet is in good hands.

“Kat entered my house with such a great attitude. My dogs took to her immediately. Once I saw that, I knew they were in good hands. Kat went above and beyond to make sure my boys were well fed and looked after. I highly recommend her services. You will not be disappointed!”

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 July 2026, there are 264 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hidalgo. 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 Hidalgo 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.

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.
