“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 took great care of our 5 needy furbabies (2 big dogs and 3 cats) and home while house sitting for our 10 day trip! They each have particular needs and she took care to attend to each pet and also kept us updated consistently at different points of the day, with plenty of photos. We had no worries at all during our trip thanks to her!”
“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!”
“Kasandra did an incredible job taking care of our home and our dogs. We came home to things spotless and she communicated so well during our trip. She listened to very detailed instructions about caring for our 3 dogs and she did everything as we asked. We hope that she can watch our dogs again!”
About: I’ve been in vetmed for 11 years at a mixed animal practice. I’ve been training my Belgian Malinois and hope to take what I’ve learned with him to offer training services to others! I’m currently working full time so I will be available on the weekends. I am willing to work some availability during the week! If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to ask!! I will offer services in your home! I feel as though pets feel more comfortable in their own environment versus somewhere completely new. I can come 3x a day and offer exercise and playtime along with feedings. I am very comfortable giving medication to pets who require it.
“I had a last minute work trip come up and booked with Arshawna! We had her come to our home to care for our 2 girls. One is a senior dog and one is young dog. Our girls loved her and we constantly got pics and updates! She took the girls on walks and played! We will definitely be booking with her 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 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
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. One thing that sets me apart is my experience caring for newborn puppies. I understand the extra patience, attention, and consistency that young puppies need, from frequent potty breaks and feeding schedules to helping them feel safe and comfortable. I’m am currently working part-time overnight 10pm to 6am, but I have daytime availability and can provide dependable care that fits your pet’s routines. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away\. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll stick to their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I’ll make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, receive lots of love and attention, and I’ll clean up after them. I’ll also send regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“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 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.
About: I have been taking care of pets if all ages for 10 years, with dogs being a large majority of the years. I am able to care for both pups, and adult dogs about the same, but will need provided instructions about senior pets if they need any medicines. I work part time at a tacobell though the hours tend to only be in the morning. I am also a collage student who has a lot of free time The way I plan to care for your pets is the same way you would I will follow any instructions that are set for the pet. As for the homes I will not enter any places that are marked as a no go zone and will be available for check-ins at anytime.
“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!”
About: I’ve lived with dogs, cats, and ferrets since I was a teenager. As an adult, I’ve had 4 pups and 2 cats at one time, and cared for my first pup, Ezzy, until she passed at 14 years old. The remaining 3 pups are 7 & 8 years, and old and the cats are 6 and 8 years old. I will love on your pets as if they are my own. My goal is to love your pets so well that when you come home, your feelings are hurt—just a little bit—when they act like they didn’t even notice you were gone! ❤️ Currently, I am available full-time to care for your home and pets. My availability is flexible which allows me to customize a care schedule that fits your and your pets’ needs. I operate within the Rover’s terms, however, we know life happens, so I’m more than willing to offer options to accommodate changing circumstances. As stated when booking with me, I prefer at least one day’s notice for bookings. But if your need is urgent message me, and you and I can discuss your situation briefly to determine if I can help you. I would like to continue your routine with your home and pets while you’re away to minimize stress for everyone. I will care for your home and everything in it just as I would expect a professional to care for mine.
About: Hi! I’m Niyah. While I’m new to Rover, I’m not new to caring for pets. I’ve helped family, friends, and neighbors by feeding their pets, letting them out, playing with them, and making sure they felt comfortable while their owners were away. I’m patient, dependable, and know how important it is to treat every pet like family. I’m also building my small business, NAE Home Concierge, so providing great care and earning your trust means a lot to me. I’ll always keep you updated with pictures and messages so you know your pet is happy and in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family! I’m currently growing my home concierge business & going to school online, which gives me a flexible schedule to provide reliable, attentive care for your pet(s) throughout the day. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine, make sure they get plenty of attention and keep you updated during every visit. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have a fenced yard for supervised outdoor play, and I’ll follow your pet’s routine to help them feel right at home. I also have a cat, but she’ll stay in a separate room during your pet’s visit to make sure everyone is comfortable. I’ll treat your pet like family and send regular photo updates so you always know how they’re doing.
“Megan was absolutely awesome! My sister and I have labs, which are obviously high maintenance dogs, so we were hesitant in using rover, but MAN are we glad we met Megan! She tended to their every need & loved on them extra for us. She sent daily photos and updates and even did some cleaning up around our house (amazing right?!). I felt so safe and secure with leaving the dogs with her and will absolutely being going back to her when we both have to leave town again. Thanks for being the best, Megan!”
“Darianna was such a fantastic sitter for us. Our pup is a bit much at times and she was so patient with him even through fireworks! She kept his schedule the exact same and let him sleep with her on her bed which he absolutely loves. She was easy to communicate with and was quick to respond to messages. I can’t recommend her enough !!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Kempner on Rover is $35.52 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 382 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.
