“Maya was an excellent sitter. My dog is not used to people she doesn't know. Maya was patient and had her cuddling up to her in no time. She was on time and took care of everthing. I would definatly ask for her again.”
“Caitlin was the perfect sitter for my 7 and 10 yr old dogs. My pups were so happy with her and I appreciated videos and pictures with daily updates so I didn’t need to worry about them. Absolutely I’m going to request her services again in the future. Thank you so much!”
“Kasandra was a God sent cat sitter! She was attentive to my babies needs, communicative, clean/organized, and Kas loved my babies as if it were ME taking care of them! I was gone for TEN days from my babies and she ensured no anxiety was suffered on my end involving their care! My babies adored her! I adore her! I definitely plan on using her services again,and again, and again in the near future! Seriously, what are you waiting for? Ain't no better pet sitter/lover than Kasandra! She gets a million stars from me!”
“Jaydin was absolutely amazing, and I truly cannot recommend her enough. From the very beginning, she was kind, friendly, and made us feel completely at ease. Most importantly, my dogs loved her, and that says a lot because they are not always the easiest with new people. She was incredibly attentive, kept me updated, and followed all of our instructions and house routines perfectly, which meant so much to me. Knowing my babies were comfortable, safe, and well cared for while I was away gave me real peace of mind. I would trust her again in a heartbeat to stay in my home and care for my dogs. There honestly aren’t enough words to express how grateful I am. Thank you for everything, Jaydin!”
About: I haven’t had much experience with pet sitting but I love animals of all kinds and sizes and I enjoy being around them and getting to just relax with them. Animals have helped with my anxiety a lot I have two emotional support animals in my life so being around animals is the perfect job for me I’d love to have the opportunity and ability to dog sit and take care of your dogs I’m hoping to expand my horizon past just babysitting and would really appreciate anyone that is willing to take a chance on me and help me expand my horizons. I’m a full time college student so my hours will fluctuate but I am more than willing to work around everything as best as I can
“Megan was AMAZING! She went above and beyond while taking care of our sweet boys and the house. We had a family emergency that meant leaving town last minute and it was such a weight off our shoulders knowing that our dogs were being cared for!! HIGHLY recommend booking with Megan- Thank you again!! ❤️”
“Emily was awesome! One of my dogs can be food aggressive and she followed all the instructions for separating my dogs at mealtimes, giving my senior dog all his medications, and providing us updates/pictures! She also kept our house clean and even took the trash out for us. Definitely went above and beyond, will definitely reach out for our future dog sitting needs :)”
“Dakotah was amazing! She came by before our trip to meet the dogs and learn their routine, which made us feel so comfortable leaving them. She sent daily photos, took them on walks, and even left us printed pictures and a sweet card when we got home. Highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”
“Sophia was amazing. I had a cancellation during a sitting and Sophia agreed to watch my dog with little warning. I have a high energy pup and he was well exercised and socialized during the sitting. Can say enough good things about Sophia.”
About: I have had animals all of my life. Horses, goats, cats, dogs, rabbits, fish, chickens, donkeys, and cattle. My Dogs are like my kids. I would love to get your dog out of the house while you’re away to burn some energy and get some fresh air. I will do my best to treat them as though they were mine, while under my care. I look forward to doing business with you.
“Lashawndra was wonderful with our fur baby. She came to meet us and discuss our needs and wants the night before the booking and instantly made us feel comfortable in leaving her to stay in our home to care for our pup. We received multiple pictures and messages to let us know how things were going. As first time users of this type of service, we could not be more pleased and will most definitely book with Lashawndra again!!”
“Darren is a thoughtful care giver for my fur babies. After months of not walking them, he got them back into a routine to help myself and my dogs on the road to wellness. Our home was cared for and has been super attentive to our needs. All instructions were followed and felt confident about Darren's care while we were on holiday. I highly recommend his services!”
About: I have cared for animals most of my life, including dogs, cats, goats, rabbits and chickens. I love them all, but dogs are my favorite and I've been told I'm good with them. I have 2 dogs that I feed twice a day along with making sure they have fresh water. I also take them on walks for their health and enjoyment and I give them baths on a regular basis, along with occasional check-ups with the veterinarian. I have a large fenced yard in a safe neighborhood. I also have 2 crates at my house that guest dogs can use, one small and one large.
“Amber is the best . I used her this past Thanksgiving weekend . She was on time and took the best care of Bailey. Got pictures , and videos every day and could tell she loved my dog . I hope to have many future trips in my schedule and Amber will be part of them . Highly recommend .”
About: From as far back as I can remember, I have always been around dogs whether I’m taking care of them or just playing around. By utilizing my services you can rest assured that your loved one is being treated the way you want them to be treated. I do have a job that takes up a normal 9-4 schedule however I’m typically free to come and go so long as there is notice. On weekends I’m completely free! For myself and my family we love our dog and treat him like he was our first son which he was! I enjoy running with my dog moose and playing so if that’s something your interested in reach out!

FAQs for House Sitting - Kempner
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Kempner on Rover is $35.52 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 385 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Kempner. 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 Kempner 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 Kempner 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 Kempner 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Kempner. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
