This girl is awesome! My parents are elderly and my mom was there for one of her visits and she still made sure to communicate everything necessary. She played with my younger hyper male and snuggled my senior when she felt he was missing us. I will definitely b rebooking her in the future.

Kasie has been great with our berner! He’s older and never had drop in visits so he’s been a little hesitant with her but she has been great and so patient with him, we appreciate her time and effort!

Britney did an amazing job! My dogs are very shy and were nervous at first, but warmed up to her by the end of the visit. Will be using her again! Thank you Britney!!

About: When I was younger we had 3 dogs, they were my best girls! Over the years we had rescued 8 cats, one of our cats may have some autism but she is so gentle and just needed some love. The trick is to let them come to you so they see you as a safe space! I currently work part-time but I am not working as much this summer, I may have a few softball lessons since I play college softball. My morning and afternoons are mainly free, in the afternoon is when I workout but I am very flexible! We used to have a fenced in area in our backyard for our dogs and a pool deck (no pool) but had to tear down our deck and now we have a beautiful grassy green area with lots of plants! Our home inside is very pet friendly we have cat and dog toys as well as cat and dog food/treats!

About: Growing up I have always been an animal lover. At my house we have always had all types of animals dogs, cats, pigs etc etc. I am very good with all types of animals and I will treat your dog with the same amount of kindness and love you would treat your dog. I know how stressful it can be leaving your pet with a stranger especially in this day and age where people can be really scary and not trusty worthy- which is why if you trust me you won’t be let down! your fur baby will be in good hands :) I don’t think of it as a job it makes my heart happy knowing that i can help you ease your mind and help take one thing off your plate when traveling :) I currently work part time at the olive garden in longview but I pretty much am able to make my own schedules so i can be available whenever I am needed :) I live on property that is gated so your animal will not be able to run out. I have 4 other dogs that are very well behaved and love to meet and play with new animals however if that doesn’t fit for your dog i also do have secluded areas where they can be kept away from other dogs.

This was my first time using a sitter for my dog and Lynlee went above and beyond my expectations. She always kept me updated throughout the day and was very communicative. She even sent me pictures of my pup! I will be trusting Lynlee with all of my future pet sitting needs.

About: I have cared for many dogs in my life. I have cared for friends' and family's dogs, as well as my own, ranging from chihuahuas to great danes. I have yet to meet a pooch who doesn't like me. I will provide individual quality care to each pup and will willingly help with any extra pup related requests (Baths, brushing, and medications). I am also always available by phone if you would like to ask any questions about me or how I will help take care of your precious pup. I know that each pup is an important member of the family, and assure that I will take the best of care of the pup or pups. I'm Alexis and I will be your pup's best friend! I'm a college student so my schedule is pretty open and flexible. Perfect for all your dog's needs! I always open and honest about my schedule and will never cancel last minute. My goal is to keep your pet happy and maintain their routine. I'll always have my eyes on your dog whether it's at home, on a walk, or at a dog park. I also strive to keep your home how you left it though if you need a few chores done I don't mind helping out.

About: Hi! I’m Ebony, a 20 year old college student born and raised in Texas, living in the Longview area. I’ve always loved working with animals and in the past I’ve had four dogs and three cats. But I currently have two dogs and one cat at home! I also used to volunteer regularly at the Longview Animal Care and Adoption Center, so I’m comfortable with pets of all kinds and personalities. I’m quick to respond and always happy to help with last minute bookings, walks, and check-ins. I’d love to connect with local pet owners and help care for your pets like they’re my own! I’m a full time online student at Lamar University, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available most days for walks, drop-ins, or pet sitting and can easily adjust to your pet’s routine. I walk, feed, entertain, and love my own pets every day, and I’ve taken in stray animals in tough situations for years. I’m great with energetic or hyperactive pets and love keeping them happy and engaged through play and attention.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with 6 years of hands-on pet sitting experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs. I’m also a proud dog mom to my three babies: Koda (Standard Goldendoodle), Bentley (Mini Goldendoodle), and Roxy (Mini Aussie), so caring for dogs is truly part of my everyday life. What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give every pet as if they were my own. I’m experienced with maintaining feeding schedules, administering basic medications, handling high-energy dogs, and making anxious pets feel comfortable and safe. I understand how important communication and trust are, so I always keep owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. My goal is to create a fun, loving, and stress-free environment where your pet feels happy, safe, and cared for while you’re away! 🐶✨ Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I’m home the majority of the day. I typically work out in the mornings, which allows me to dedicate the rest of my day to giving pets plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, walks, and companionship. I occasionally go to dinner with family or friends, but overall I have a very flexible schedule and enjoy making pets a priority in my day-to-day life. I care for every pet as if they were my own by creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment. In my home, pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, exercise, and a comfortable space to relax. I’m very mindful of maintaining their normal routines, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any special instructions from the owner. In a client’s home, I make sure pets feel comfortable by keeping their routine as consistent as possible while also respecting and caring for the home. I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so owners can feel confident their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while they’re away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Kilgore on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 306 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Kilgore. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Kilgore stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Kilgore. On Rover:

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.

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.
