“We have used Theresa multiple times and already have her booked for two more future dates. She keeps our fur baby’s routine and it is clear she loves animals. We will continue using her and would highly recommend her!!”
“Alexis was wonderful! She kept my pups on their schedule, sent me updates and pictures, and my pups really enjoyed her. It's such a relief to find someone I can rely on when I have to travel ?”
“Madeline was available last minute and made me feel safe leaving my kitties behind for a few days. She sent pictures of each of them to me and made me feel they were loved and well taken care of while I was gone. I highly recommend Madeline to anyone needing help, especially those who may need extra cuddles or medication needs!”
“Natalie did a great job taking care of our Nora in our home! Our normal dog sitter/ house sitter was busy so we had to try someone new and we made a great choice. I’m always hesitant letting new people into our home but Natalie left our home in the same condition before we left. She went above and beyond taking the garbage out, taking sheets off the bed and starting the dishwasher. She was very communicative of Nora’s needs and how she was doing while we were gone. Natalie communicated her schedule changes as it related to when Nora would be home alone. We would recommend Natalie to other rover users and will use her again!”
About: I’m experienced with high-energy & large dog breeds! I focus on structured, alert walks and attentive supervision. Above all else, I prioritize your dogs routine & safety first. I’m currently working part time, so my schedule is pretty flexible! I tend to be more available in the mornings & afternoons, but am happy to do evening work should the need arise! My schedule tends to vary week to week, but my evenings get busy from Thursday to Saturday. Otherwise, I’m happy to help! Safety, structure, and home security are my highest priorities. For house sittings and drop-ins, I strictly follow the owner's established rules, keep entryways locked, and double-check gates/doors before and after any outing. For walks, I practice active leash management and remain hyper-aware of my surroundings—maintaining safe distances from triggers, bikes, and other dogs. I ensure fresh water is always available, and send detailed updates after every visit so you know your pet and home are completely secure.
“I’m a helicopter mom to my fur babies, but Nidia makes it so easy for me to actually relax and enjoy myself while I’m away from home. She is really great about my cats’ routines and always is mindful of my instructions for their care, which I really appreciate! She’s also punctual, reliable and communicative, which are all big pluses especially if I’m far from home. My cats also love her, and are very comfortable around her. Nidia also maintains cleanliness in the house, takes in my packages, etc. all bonuses! Honestly I am SO glad I found her to take care of my cats while I’m away, because I actually am able to focus on my work or vacation and not worry about how my cats are doing or if they’re well taken care of. She’s already watched them 3 times for me, in a span of less than 6 months and I know that I will be using her services every time when I’m away. If you’re on the fence about getting a sitter, here’s your sign to trust Nidia. She is the best!”
About: I've had and taken care of several kinds of pets since I was a teenager! I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits, cows, and even a few birds, so I've learned a wide range of animal personalities/behaviors - and I've loved them all! Whether it's simply checking in on a pet for food, water, and playtime or staying overnight to care for a senior dog with more specific needs, I've been able to provide all sorts of help and am happy to accommodate your unique pet requests! I am currently between jobs, so I have a very flexible schedule. I would be able to pet-sit or do drop-ins pretty much any day of the week, with the exception of holidays and any specific dates marked out on my calendar! I don't typically do pet care in my own home but will be more than happy to check in on your pet periodically or stay overnight if needed.
“Callie is the BEST pup sitter! She listened to us describe Milo's personality and our expectations. She followed our requests to the letter. She sent a precious picture of Milo sound asleep on her lap. He was such a happy puppy when we arrived home, but wasn't whining or crying. He had clearly been well cared for!! We will definitely call on Callie again, and again!! We highly recommend her!!”
About: I’ve been around pets my entire life! I grew up taking care of my family’s dogs and cats, and I’ve taken care of family friends’ and professors’ animals for 4 years. I know people’s animals are their family, and that is how your dog or cat will be treated with me! I have taken care of dogs of all sizes and pets with different needs such as animals with anxiety and blind pets. I currently work full time at the University of Memphis. When taking care of someone else’s pet, they are my top priority and I adapt my schedule around the animal and their care! Additionally, I will ensure they are always safe and secure. Whether that means making sure all the gates are locked before letting them out, crating them before I leave, or showing them extra love if they’re feel nervous about their family being away. I will also be sure to leave your home clean and cared for while you are away. I take pet sitting very seriously, and I will treat your pet as if it were my own while you’re gone! I also know consistent communication is key when caring for someone’s animal, and I will be sure to always have my phone on me to send you updates and cute pictures of your pet! While I do work full time and am in graduate school, I make sure that I am allotting enough time to be able to prioritize your animal. So whether that is waking up earlier to walk them or coming during my lunch break to check on them, I will adapt my routine around your pet! Safety is a fundamental piece of being able to care for someone’s pet because they are apart of your family. In my home, they will be the only pet around! In your home, I will always verify gates and doors are locked for the protection of your pet and belongings. Additionally, I will ensure leashes and harnesses are put on correctly before every walk! Their safety and happiness is always a priority to me!
About: Hello, my name is Elaina and I have been a veterinarian technician for over 5 years! I am so lucky I get to help animals and would enjoy doing it outside of work too.I feel comfortable doing many things including administering medication via any route, watching their behavior, bowel movements and urination, along with their appetite and water intake! I am comfortable with so much more as well (obviously I would hope so considering my job lol) I am very certain your pets will be in great hands! I look forward to establishing a strong long term relationship with both you and your babies! I do work a full time job but on the days I have off which are every Wednesdays some Saturdays and every Sunday I would like to make a little extra. Every other morning besides those days I would quickly take care of the babies but later on in the evening will have time to spend with them. As long as pets have everything they need I am comfortable taking care of them, I just need to know their routine and what their behavior is like. If there are special requests those are appreciated. Your babies will be treated as my own as they are precious innocent creatures and deserve the entire world:)
About: I have many years experience with my pets as well as sitting other pets. In my home and others homes. I love all breeds and sizes and have a background in simple training as well as agility. My most recent pet recently passed so I look forward to filling that void with the love of your fur baby for the time being. What joy they bring us! Give my services a try and I'll treat your pet as it were my own. Thank you for taking the time to read a bit about me and don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have! Looking forward to meeting and sitting your family dog/ fur baby!! Lots of freedom at my house for your precious pets!
“Alissa was so great with our puppy! We work night shift and she came over and spent time with him while we were at work and our dog absolutely loved her! Our cats also cuddled up to her too. She took him out, sent us pictures, and took him for a walk to get some of that puppy energy out. Would love to use her again in the future. Thanks Alissa! :)”
“It was nice having such a loving Momma take care of my fur babies while we were out of town. My kitties really opened up to her and enjoyed their time together. Will definitely use her services again.”
“Pauline is Amazing! She is great with all types of dogs. She was so much help to me and I appreciate her very much! She's really smart and logical and catches on to anything new or different. She goes above and beyond. I would definitely love to hire her again!”
“Jessica did a great job with our animals. She had great communication before, during and after the stay had been completed. House was just as we left it and everyone seems happy upon our return.”
About: I have 3 dogs and one cat of my own! I’ve had two of the dogs since they were puppies, and my cat since he was a kitten. I’ve also pet sit for my neighbors many times! My three dogs are all chihuahuas, but i’ve had experience with bigger dogs too. I am currently working part time, but I’m planning on going full time with pet sitting! Once summer is over I will be going to school but early in the morning, from around 8 to 12. So I will have plenty of time to take care of your pets ! I will not bring your pets to my own home, because my dogs are not very friendly to other pets. I will be able to go to your home and take care of your pet(s) there!
“Leticia went above and beyond during her stay with Oxford and Nellie. We had to leave town unexpectedly and she was so prompt in her response and willingness to come over for a walk through before we left town. Our dogs were well cared for as well as our home. I will be re-booking again!”
“This was our first Rover experience and it has been phenomenal! Andressa really went above and beyond to care for our pets and our home while we away. I especially appreciated the photos and updates and felt completely comfortable about our babies the whole trip. We'll definitely be booking her for any future travel and will be in touch about the housecleaning services.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Justin is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $78 per night.

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 Justin 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 Justin 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 Justin 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.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% can help with daily exercise
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.
