“Sirrine has house/dog sat for us twice & we couldn't be happier with her! Our pups are loved & well cared for when she's taking care of them & we have complete peace of mind leaving them and our home in her care. We always come home and the house seems like it is cleaner than when we left it lol! Sirrine always sends us update pics of our dogs while away as well so we can see they're being their normal, lazy selves. I highly recommend her for your house/pet sitting needs.”
“We could not be more thrilled with Kimberly and we will 100% be calling her again. She is punctual and professional and asked great questions. She sent regular pictures and updates and even left a present for the pets when she left. She left the house spotless. She went above and beyond in every single way. If I could give her more than 5 stars, I would.”
“Megan was an excellent sitter. I need help last minute because I had to be in the hospital during the storm for 48 hours straight. Megan made sure my dogs were well cared for with meals, walks, and lots of love/attention. One of my dogs also needed medication and she was able to provide. Would love to have her back!”
“Lexie is awesome!!! She took great care of my English Bulldogs and provided pictures daily.She even went out of her way to check for packages that were being delivered while I was on vacation. I definitely recommend Lexie.”
About: ⭐️ MEET AND GREETS WITH NEW CLIENTS ⭐️ DETAILED updates with videos / photos ⭐️ extra treats and cuddles!!! I have hands on experience caring for both my own dogs, neighbors dogs while they’re away, and 6+ months on the rover app. I regularly care for my two best friends a Labrador named Luna and a Collie/Beagle mix named Maggie. handling their feeding, fresh water, medication/vitamins, playtime, and daily attention. With my new furry friends I’ve made I treat them with the same care as if they’re my own family. What sets me apart is that I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely LOVE spending time with animals. I take pet safety seriously, follow routines closely, and make sure pets feel comfortable and loved while their owners are gone. I want to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible with me!! Pet care fits well into my weekly routine alongside school. I attend school Monday through Friday (Sep-May) but I’m flexible to make your pets routine work for me! plenty of time for walks, feeding, playtime, and attentive care. I provide pet care exclusively in my client’s home to keep pets comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, routines, and safety guidelines. I make sure pets always have fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of attention. I respect my client’s home, keep doors and gates secure, and prioritize the pet’s royal safety, comfort, and well-being in their palace at all times!
“LOVED! Was the first time I’ve used Courtney or anyone out side of family in years and I felt comfortable since day one and the pictures of my boys smiling throughout the whole stay just made it better! Will absolutely reach out to Courtney for my future needs”
“This was my first time having a sitter come in and stay with my dog for a week, and Ariel was the perfect professional for the job. She was timely, a great communicator, and put me totally at ease so I could enjoy my vacation. Would recommend her to anyone!”
“Ashley took the best care of our three babies (two cats and one dog) while we were out of town. She is super easygoing, sent us plenty of photos and updates, everyone was very happy when we got home and the house was in a spotless condition. Definitely recommend!”
“Pups were well taken care of. House was kept very neat and clean. Knowing someone responsible was there for my dogs and home allowed us to have a stress free trip. Thank you Ashlyn!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Kylie. I got a good vibe from our first initial meeting and that stayed true throughout her stay. She took thorough notes during our meet and greet and asked me to review a few days later to see if anything needed to be added. She went ABOVE AND BEYOND everything I asked for. She stayed in constant communication and kept me updated for the 9 days I was gone and helped keep my mind at ease with my senior dog who can be needy. She cleaned up and vacuumed my house unsolicited and left the house just as clean as I left it like nobody had been there. She even finished drying some clothes I asked her to after I didn’t get to finish them before my trip and asked if it was okay to fold them. I would not hesitate to use her again for any pet sitting/walking services and she is by far the best sitter I’ve had”
About: 30+ years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes—from Chihuahuas to Malamutes. I’m comfortable with puppies, high-energy dogs, and seniors needing extra patience and care. I’ve volunteered at veterinary offices and trained under a professional dog trainer, so I understand dog behavior, basic health needs, and safe handling. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or sitting, I focus on keeping your pet safe, happy, and on their routine. Reliable, attentive, and experienced—you can trust your dog is in good hands. Currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility for care. I’m available for daily walks, drop-ins, and playtime throughout the week after 4pm, with open availability for boarding, extended stays, and weekend care. I’m happy to accommodate both regular weekly schedules and last-minute needs whenever possible—your dog’s routine and happiness come first. Safe, two-story home with a fully fenced yard in a quiet, low-traffic Lake Houston community. Nearby trails and dog parks for plenty of exercise. I prioritize supervision, secure spaces, and a calm environment so your pup feels safe and at home.
“Iviah was perfect . I felt so much better having someone stay with my elder dog . She gave me so much peace of mind which let me enjoy my trip . She went above and beyond with my elder dog. A god send! I would 100% recommended her .”
“We had such a great experience with Kira! Our dogs absolutely loved her. It was clear from the start that she genuinely cared about them and made sure they were comfortable, happy, and well cared for while we were away. She kept our home just as we left it - clean, organized, and respected our space fully. She was also communicative throughout the stay, sending us updates and checking in as needed, which gave us great peace of mind. We’re so grateful for her help! We will surely be booking her services again, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and caring sitter!”
About: Hi! I’ve lived and cared for dogs, cats, and ferrets all throughout my life. I have also worked at a pet resort and volunteered at a pet rescue where I gained experience in dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes, reptiles, and birds. I have experience with giving medications, maintaining (mostly kitty) boundaries, and strict feeding schedules. I also currently have one pitbull (my stepson) and two young 1-year-old kitties (my children) bestowed to me by the Cat Distribution System! However, I have to say I’m partial to small dogs since I grew up with Shih Tzu mixes! I love them all. I schedule my life around theirs. Their whole world is me, so I prioritize their needs. I’ll do whatever they need me to do, one example being I have to now take my cats on their own walks (harness-trained) because they get jealous of their dog sibling. I always offer companionship and play if that’s what the pet’s body language is giving me, or I can just be a warming presence who just provides food and cleanup. I’ve worked with dogs who need 6 walks a day and cats who you need an oven mitt before serving food. I go based off them!
“Benjamin and Carrie did a great job taking care of my critters. My senior cat is on multiple medications which are given throughout the day, and they handled that process with ease. They also kept to my early morning walk schedule for my dog and made sure she got to see her friends (both people and other dogs) every morning. Coming home to a clean house was great - and much appreciated. I would definitely recommend them, and will use them again when I take trips in the future.”
“Natali was wonderful with our menagerie (2 German Shepards, a Goldendoodle and of course our sweet kitty who thinks he’s a dog 🤦🏻♀️😆). ! They all loved her from their first meeting, and it was comforting to me and them to have her come to our home and stay with them! I highly recommend Natali and look forward to using her again!”
“We could not have asked for a better sitter than Megan for our week-plus trip. Going in, we were honestly a little nervous — between our 3 dogs (1 German Shepherd and 2 Corgis) and 6 cats, it's a lot of personalities and needs to juggle — but Megan handled it like she'd been doing it for years. She sent check-ins every single day, complete with pictures and videos, so we never once wondered how everyone was doing. The dogs were brushed daily, walked, fed on schedule, and clearly happy and relaxed in every photo. The cats got just as much attention, which isn't always a given with a multi-pet household this size. She also stayed right on top of medicine and vitamins for the whole crew, never missing a dose — that alone takes a level of organization and trust we don't hand out lightly. What really stood out was the state of our house when we got home. It wasn't just "fine" — it was spotless, arguably cleaner than when we left. Litter boxes maintained, no messes left behind, everything tidy and put away. That level of care and respect for our home, on top of juggling 9 animals and their daily meds, says a lot about her reliability and work ethic. If you have a full house and want someone who treats your pets and your space like their own, book Megan. We'll absolutely be using her again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Huffman on Rover is $45.36 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of August 2026, there are 2,664 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Huffman. 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 Huffman 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 Huffman 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 Huffman 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.
