“Amazing job!!! Our dogs took to her right away on the first meeting and that was all I needed. She took wonderful care of our dogs and home. Updates and pictures throughout our time away. I really can't say enough good things. Having Rayven come and stay with our dogs made it possible for us to travel without worry. We are lucky to have found her.”
“Lisa was fantastic - it was clear how much she cared about Ellie and our ability to rest easy knowing Ellie was in good hands. She sent wonderful pictures and doted on Ellie the entire time we were gone. And when we came home, it was as if we’d never left. Our home was perfectly clean and ready for our arrival. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
“I had never left my fur baby with anyone but family and was really worried about leaving her with a stranger, but Randi eased my concerns from the first moment we met! She was so sweet with my girl and sent me regular updates while I was gone. She did an excellent job the entire time and probably took better care watching my baby than my family would have!”
“Jairo was great with ours dogs! He kept us updated, communicated well. We really appreciated the notes he left about each of them during his stay with them. It gives us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. We would definitely use his services again and highly recommend him!”
“Taylor was available last minute to house sit my dogs. They seemed happy and tired from playtime when I got home! The house was even cleaner than when I left which I really appreciate!”
“Stephanie was an amazing sitter! She was so communicative, sent tons of photos and absolutely loved on our boys like they were her own. She took them on walks and played with them inside/outside. And I definitely trusted her in our home. We will 100% be booking with Stephanie in the future if she is available!”
“Sara watched our two kitties for an entire week. It was beyond helpful and awesome. She was able to keep me at ease. She communicated with me the entire time. As well as before the trip. You can tell she is incredibly comfortable taking care of animals. Our house was left clean, our kitties were happy and safe. Highly recommend!! Thank u thank u Sara!!”
About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life. I absolutely love animals and the joy they bring. I have experience with pets of all ages and health issues including diabetes and epilepsy. I understand how traumatic it can be for pets to be without their owners and I do everything I can to make it easier on both of you. I work part time and it is mostly from home. I have a very open schedule so I can cater to my clients. I can also easily work on my laptop with a dog or cat on my lap. I am happy to treat your pets as my own. I can send you updates with photos so you know they are okay. I will be respectful of your home and privacy.
“It felt so easy having you watch my dog. My dog is an insecure dog and Gabi took her on so well. She provided plenty of updates to keep me in the loop. She went above and beyond taking my dog for walks when she normally just goes out back. When I got my dog back I noticed she was better behaved. I will be hiring Gabi again.”
“My two girls loved Victoria!!! Every day she took them on walks, and gave them their every daily essentials. She would send us pictures numerous times during the day with her daily interactions that made us feel reassured that they were being well taken care of. She’s a sweet and nurturing person that you know that your fur babies are being well taken care of. The house was very clean and the girls were well picked up after.”
“Larisa was EXCEPTIONAL! She stayed at my home with my dogs (3 of them). She played outside with them everyday and was in constant contact with me. My dogs are very spoiled and usually take days to warm up to someone. They were her best friends within hours of me leaving. She really went above and beyond. They were sad to see her leave and waited at the door to see if she would come back. I will definitely be using Larisa again. My only issue is my dogs love her too much 😂 especially my border collie who got more playtime in the 5 days I was gone than see normally does in a month! Very attentive and loving pet sitter.”
“Ana was so amazing with my babes !!!! She was totally attentive and loving, and kept me updated each day. Totally appreciate her and will most certainly reach out to her next time I need to leave town 😊 Highly recommended !!!!”
“The dogs liked him. He was very attentive. Kept us posted on everything that was going on with daily pictures with updates. Will definitely use him again.”
“Tony is an amazing pet sitter! I would highly recommend him to anyone. He took care of my 2 pups and had me at a complete peace of mind while on vacation. He was extremely caring for them, very communicative, gave me daily updates with photos, and he kept my place so clean! 5/5 pet service.”
“Ruth has been an amazing house and pet sitter for me and my two little pups! She's kind, conscientious and overall a fantastic person and perlt caretaker! I highly recommend Ruth for all of your house and pet sitting needs! 🫶🩷🐾”
“Courtney is very cheerful and sweet. She was great with my fur babies. She watered my plants too when I asked, in this Texas heat! I’ll definitely have her back!!!”
“Huy was great with our furbabies Eva and Max and they are always super excited when we are back home. We are overall very happy that we are able to work with him! He is super attentive and is a great communicator. Highly recommend Huy!”
“Einar took excellent care of my senior dog and 3 cats while I was out of town. He was very communicative and conscientious, keeping me updated about everything going on. One of my cats gave us a scare by hiding himself so well we’d thought he’d run away. Fortunately it was a false alarm but I was still very impressed with how proactive and professional Einar was throughout it all. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi! I’m Debbie and have cared for two cocker spaniels, Duncan & Tuckie. I take great pride in making my dogs a priority in my life, including them in all that I do & treating them as members of my family! I would love to offer you my dog caring services so that you can have peace of mind that your fur baby is in loving hands! I’m available for dog walks, drop ins for feedings, boarding as well as pet sitting in my home. I do live in a condo community, and while I don’t have a fenced yard, we do have a small dog park on our property. Rest assured that your fur baby will get plenty of potty breaks and get taken on walks to get plenty of fresh air, sunshine & exercise. I work from home three days out of the week, and go into the office on Wed & Thurs. from 8a-5p. I do drive home during my lunch hour to take the doggies on a potty break. I normally give dogs free range in my home. They are allowed on the couch and bed. I can also crate them while I’m away or at night if you prefer. You will need to supply the crate. I take the doggies out for potty breaks usually every four hours.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Hilshire Village is $45
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hilshire Village
I could go on about her forever, she was better than I could've ever imagined for my 8 week old puppy! I hate leaving my puppy but she made me feel so secure and calm after seeing how happy, loving, and open my puppy was with her. She was so playful, kind, gentle, and helped us with potty training him. My puppy loves her so much!
I had never left my fur baby with anyone but family and was really worried about leaving her with a stranger, but Randi eased my concerns from the first moment we met! She was so sweet with my girl and sent me regular updates while I was gone. She did an excellent job the entire time and probably took better care watching my baby than my family would have!
Isabella stepped in last minute and even ran out for a quick meet and greet before we left on our trip. Communication was fast and reliable. She did everything we asked of her, and she sent us lots of photos!! We managed to relax knowing our fur babies were in good hands. We returned home to happy pets and the house looked great. Highly recommend!
Charis was awesome with our fur family! Our sitting experience started as a disaster for her (TOTALLY ON US) that she handled with complete ease and calm (I was a stressed mess lol). Less than 2 hours after her arrival all our smoke detectors started going off. And going off. And wouldn't stop. This went on for several hours and required a call to an electrician that thankfully was able to get there very quickly and solved the problem. I was so grateful Charis was willing to stick it out and assist with letting the electrician in and problem solving. Charis gave our 2 pups and our cat lots of love and attention during the 4 day stay and left our house in perfect condition. Ziggy, Shelby Ann, Bear and I highly recommend.
Hannah was wonderful with Eleanor. She stayed at our house for a week and was very patient with her. Our girl can be needy & struggles with separation anxiety but Hannah was able to cater to her needs. She provided wonderful updates & was very very kind to our home. She left the house very clean & she was so communicative. We would highly suggest trusting your babies with her and I don’t say that lightly! Thank you Hannah so much!!!
This was my first time using Rover and I will never use anyone else! Lorin made me feel at ease while I was away with daily updates, photos and videos - ensuring Hazel was in great hands. Hazel has never been boarded or watched after by anyone except my family. Seeing how comfortable she was in Lorin’s home showed me how much Hazel loved her and how well she was being taken care of. Thank you for providing such great care and I promise that you will see Hazel again! ♥️
Giovanni was AMAZING! Took great care of our cat while we were away and constantly kept in contact with us. He kept our home nice and tidy as well. There was a huge storm during his stay and the power went out. We called and said he could leave and our cat would be ok for several hours, but he stayed with our pet throughout the whole time. Best cat sitter we have ever had. Will reuse again!
Kendall was very communicative and took great care of my 2 cats on a recent visit. She even proactively offered up to stop by for another drop in/feeding session to work with my travel schedule. Also doesn’t hurt that she takes pretty awesome pictures of pets!

FAQs for House Sitting - Hilshire Village
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Hilshire Village on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,975 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hilshire Village. 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 Hilshire Village 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 Hilshire Village 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 Hilshire Village 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.
