“Jorden rocks! We frequently book with her for house sitting of our golden retrievers. She’s trustworthy, dependable, and goes the extra mile. We’re so grateful for her.”
“Amber was lovely! Sat for the day in my home on a last minute request, checked in frequently with updates and pictures, and followed all care instructions ❤️ Thank you for the great care!”
“Nathan was absolutely wonderful as our house and dog sitter while we were away for Spring Break! From the start, he was communicative, reliable, and made us feel completely at ease leaving both our home and our dog in his care. He stayed in our home and treated it with great respect, everything was clean and just as we left it when we returned. Most importantly, our dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly got plenty of attention and exercise while we were gone. Nathan kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind during our trip. We truly appreciated how attentive and responsible he was, and it made a big difference knowing everything at home was in such good hands. We would absolutely recommend Nathan to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter, and we would love to have him back again in the future!”
About: Hi there! I’m Courtney and I have three years of dog training under my belt, I've trained and cared for hundreds of dogs and animals of all varieties. From puppies, to senior dogs, to anxious dogs. From cats, to birds, even to snakes. I also house sit and take care of plants, mail, and all the extra house things at no extra cost. I take care of everything. I currently work in marketing at a 9-5 and I am remote on Wednesdays. I am a homebody and am usually always available, and trying to raise money to pay off student loans. I take them on long walks, make sure they have indoor play time, lots of cuddles, fed, watered, treats, and have background music on so they are not anxious. I am always talking to them so they can hear my voice and know that I am in a relaxed and friendly mood.
“This was the first time Briana housesat for me, and she was great. From the meet and greet alone, I could tell she would do a great job taking care of my pets. She was friendly and really communicative and I felt confident that my animals were being well cared for. I came home to 3 happy animals. Thanks, Briana!”
“Payton was our first overnight dog and house sitter and she exceeded all of our expectations and more. She watched over our 11 week old puppy Benny (who needs a lot of love, playtime, and potty breaks when he’s not napping) for 3 days while we went out of town for a wedding. We were very nervous to leave him for the first time and she made us feel very happy and comfortable with our decision by sending us several 3 to 4 updates per day, lots of photos, and we could clearly see our boy very happy and playful with her. She also tidied up after herself and left the house very clean which I appreciate after a trip. She clearly loves animals and followed our instructions perfectly”
“Kaia was the absolute best!!! 5 stars!!! First, she was prompt to begin the appointment. Secondly, she completed all the feeding and playing and walking activities with our dog expertly. And she was the most kind and considerate in all her communications! Highly recommend :) thanks so much Kaia … we felt so safe with u taking care of our Charlie Bear.”
“Very pleased with the extended stay coverage while we were traveling internationally. Anastasia was understanding and adaptable. We appreciated all the dog walks too! Will use Anastasia again in the future!”
“Caleb was great! He took care of our animals as if they were his own while we were out of town for a few days and they were happy and healthy as could be when we made it home. 10/10 Recommend”
“We've hired Ken for house sitting our cat. He was very responsive and communicated everything with us. Since we were out of the country during this horrific heat wave, he was kind enough to water our yards for us. Ken sent us pictures and videos of our pet daily. I highly recommend Ken's services.”
“Kylie is so sweet. My cats responded differently to me when I came home, so I know they had a good time with her. She communicated on my door cam when she was leaving. Would definitely recommend.”
“Tabbatha watched our two dogs for two weeks in our home and she was truly amazing! It was clear that she really cared about our dogs and she went above and beyond for them, including sending lots of pictures of how they were doing! She was also flexible enough to stay an extra night when we had unexpected travel issues. Overall, we highly recommend Tabbatha!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs for more than 35 years, but my experience goes well beyond owning pets. For two years, I was one of the general managers of Care for Dogs, a large rescue organization in Chiang Mai, Thailand, caring for roughly 200 dogs with a team of about 20 employees, volunteers and visiting veterinarians. My role covered nearly every part of rescue operations: daily care, medications, veterinary appointments, fostering, adoption placement, behavioral evaluation, rehabilitation and end-of-life care. I personally fostered approximately 30–40 dogs and helped place more dogs into permanent homes than I can count. I also coordinated the international relocation of roughly 20 rescue dogs from Thailand to adoptive homes around the world, handling veterinary requirements, health documentation, vaccinations, airline logistics, crates, travel arrangements and adopter coordination. I’m especially comfortable with dogs who need more attention than the average pet sitter may be accustomed to. I have extensive hands-on experience with senior dogs, anxious and fearful dogs, rescue dogs, dogs recovering from surgery and dogs with ongoing medical needs. My experience includes administering oral and topical medications, injections and subcutaneous fluids; assisting veterinarians during procedures; wound and post-operative care; mobility assistance; cones, bandages and stitches; overnight monitoring; hospice and end-of-life care; and recognizing behavioral or physical changes that may require veterinary attention. I’m also very experienced reading canine body language and working patiently with frightened, undersocialized, reactive or previously abused dogs. Building trust with a nervous dog is something I genuinely enjoy and am very good at. I am not a veterinarian or veterinary technician, and I never pretend to be one. I follow veterinary and owner instructions carefully and know when something is outside my role and requires professional medical attention. For owners of senior, special-needs or medically complicated dogs, I’m happy to provide detailed updates including medications, meals, bathroom activity, behavior, photos and changes I observe. I offer boarding, house sitting, daycare, drop-in visits and walks. I have reliable transportation and can assist with emergency veterinary transportation when authorized. I do not accept dogs with aggression toward people, dogs, or cats, or dogs that are not house-trained. Dogs have been a major part of my life for decades. I understand their behavior, their health and, most importantly, how different every dog can be. My goal is simple: when your dog is with me, you should feel confident that someone experienced, observant and genuinely invested in their wellbeing is looking after them. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, so dogs in my care get plenty of attention throughout the day rather than being left alone for long stretches. My partner also works from home, which means there is usually someone here, and dogs are generally never left alone for more than three hours. For dogs who need closer supervision because of age, medical needs, anxiety, recovery from surgery or other special circumstances, I can also arrange 24/7 monitoring for an additional fee. We live in a quiet lake community on Lake Austin, so our days can include neighborhood walks, Lakeway trails, Lakeway Park and plenty of relaxed time at home. For dogs who genuinely enjoy the water, and only with your approval, I can also offer swimming, lake outings or even a boat ride. I’m happy to customize your dog’s routine around what makes them comfortable, including feeding schedules, medications, frequent potty breaks, slower walks, mobility needs and extra one-on-one attention for shy, sensitive or senior dogs. My two dogs are Enzo, a mellow 10-year-old neutered Golden Retriever, and Bella, a sweet 2-year-old spayed Great Pyrenees mix. Both are gentle and friendly with other animals, and their calm personalities often help visiting dogs settle in. I also have a dog-friendly vehicle set up with ramps, beds and plenty of room for comfortable transportation. Basic grooming such as brushing and simple cleanups can also be provided when needed. Safety, Trust & Environment I live in a single-story home in a quiet Lake Austin community with a grassy, fully fenced yard. The one-story layout is especially helpful for senior dogs, large breeds and dogs with mobility limitations who may have difficulty navigating stairs. My home is shared with Enzo, my 10-year-old neutered Golden Retriever, and Bella, my 2-year-old spayed Great Pyrenees mix. Both are mellow, social dogs who are comfortable around other animals and tend to create a relaxed atmosphere for visiting dogs. I take introductions seriously and give every new dog time and space to adjust. I pay close attention to body language, stress signals, eating, drinking, bathroom habits, mobility and changes in behavior. With my rescue background, I’m particularly comfortable with dogs who are shy, anxious, older, recovering from medical procedures or simply need a little more patience. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully and can maintain specific feeding, medication, exercise and recovery routines. I’m also comfortable providing detailed updates about meals, medications, bathroom activity, behavior and anything unusual I notice. Dogs are never pushed into activities they do not enjoy. Walks, swimming, lake outings, interactions with other dogs and other activities are always based on the individual dog’s temperament, health, abilities and your instructions. My goal is to make my home feel less like boarding and more like staying with experienced family.
About: Big and small, crazy and calm, old and young, rescues and pure breeds, I've seen them all! I've always had pets growing up, my grandparents had a farm, and I networked enough to house and pet sit for multiple folks in my hometown as a kid. That continued into college, adding dog walking in the mix, and followed me when I lived in Philadelphia for 3 years. Besides house maintenance and caring for animals, I also love tending to plants and have nanny and babysitting experience as well! Also one of my favorite YouTube channels is Girl with the Dogs. It's a grooming channel for dogs AND cats and it's so fun to see all the breeds and their behaviors. I work from home MWF and am in office typically for 6-7 hours on TTH. I love being active daily so walks and playtime are a big bonus for me. I want to ensure that the level of care and attention I give to your home, family, and fur babies is how I treat my own.
About: I’ve always had a soft spot for animals. I give my whole heart to furry friends and love learning, communicating, and playing with them! I have great experience with both cats and dogs (big and small). Coming from Houston, I have great experience with organizations such as G.R.A.S.S where I learned to care for dogs with various needs. I have been part of the TNR program within my neighborhood in order to keep streets cat friendly! Within that, I have fostered cats (feral and domestic). I work remotely on my own schedule but spend a lot of time outside. I am flexible with hours and would love to discuss what works best for YOU! I understand that all animals have habits and needs of their own. From allergies to uncontrollable bladders, I can give my word that I will provide the upmost care for your pet.

We've hired Ken for house sitting our cat. He was very responsive and communicated everything with us. Since we were out of the country during this horrific heat wave, he was kind enough to water our yards for us. Ken sent us pictures and videos of our pet daily. I highly recommend Ken's services.
We had such a wonderful experience with Candace caring for our puppy, Bowie! As a young puppy, Bowie has lots of energy and requires a little extra attention, but Candace was absolutely amazing with her. She followed all of our instructions, kept to Bowie’s routine, and took such great care of her. We especially loved all the photos and videos she sent throughout her stay. It was so reassuring to see Bowie happy, comfortable, and having fun while we were away. Candace was communicative, attentive, and clearly genuinely cared about Bowie. We would absolutely trust Candace with Bowie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and reliable dog sitter!
Marcela did a meet and greet and accepted the house sit for Stella and Finn. She arrived on time and both dogs were attracted to her instantly. She took great care, feeding and walking them, sending pictures of them to let me know they were enjoying her attention and care. It was a comfort to know that the dogs and my home were in good hands.
She did a phenomenal job and was a total pleasure to work with. Her quick responsiveness made scheduling a breeze, and her constant communication kept me at ease the entire time. I will absolutely use her services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter!

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 Hudson Bend 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 Hudson Bend 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Hudson Bend 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.
