“Jessica took very good care of my boys while I was out of the state for several weeks. I’ve never been away from them for so long before so I was very nervous but after a few days of checking on them and getting pictures, I knew they were in good hands with Jessica.”
About: I am currently employed as a pet sitter, taking care of various pets while their owners are away at work, or on vacation. Responsible for entering people's homes and ensuring the proper care of their pets. Trusted with providing animals the proper medication for their individual needs. Also providing in home boarding for your convenience! I am pursuing this as a full time gig! I love animals and enjoy being outdoors and bringing smiles to their faces! I know we all have busy schedules, so let me be the one to come and interact with them while you are busy! I have a fenced yard with two friendly dogs, two cats that will be staying upstairs and put away for safety of all! Daily photo updates are a promise!
“Thank you Denae for sitting with Sebastian and Zena on such short notice! We had to attend a funeral out of town and Denea was able to keep our two furry babies and house sit while we were gone. We really appreciated it!”
“This was our first time using a house/dog sitter. Sherri did a wonderful job in everything. She was friendly and professional. Her rapport with our puppy was immediate. We felt comfortable that he was being well cared for. Sherri kept us well informed while we were away. Her detailed notes were very helpful. It was clear from our dog's behavior on our return that this was a pleasant experience for him. We will definitely call on Sherri again when we need exceptional dog sitting.”
About: hi, i'm sophie 🐶 10 years of pet care, 5.0 stars, and a very organized human who loves your dog like her own. 🎄 holiday spots are open! 🎄 peak dates book up fast, so message me early for Thanksgiving and Christmas. 📋 how i run things • only 1 or 2 dogs at a time, never a pack • your dog's meals, meds and walks happen on your schedule, to the minute • a report card with photos after every visit and every day of a stay: what they ate, potty breaks, mood, and anything they got into • i keep notes on your dog's routine so every stay picks up right where the last one left off 🐾 who i'm great with shy pups, seniors, anxious dogs, dogs who don't love other dogs, and special needs pups. totally comfortable with meds, including insulin and eye drops. 🏡 every boarding stay includes 🛁 a free bath and brush out before pickup 🧺 clean bedding and a sanitized crate 🛋️ couch and bed privileges 🎾 positive reinforcement training help if you want it 💛 regulars are my favorite weekly and monthly schedules get a discount, and your dog sees the same face every time. send me your dates or your weekly schedule. i reply fast 💛 sophie i work from home so i'm around all day, every day 🏡 weekly walks and drop ins are open weekdays and weekends, and boarding and day care are on my calendar too. since it's only ever 1 or 2 dogs here, my availability is real. if the calendar says open, i have room. want a standing weekly spot? message me and i'll hold it for you. I am home all day, so your dog is supervised the whole time instead of being left alone for stretches. We keep a set routine for meals, exercise, rest and crate time, which is what settles most dogs down fastest. I have a crate available if yours is crate trained or wants a quiet space of their own, and I sanitize it and wash all bedding between every stay. Potty breaks every couple of hours. I live in an apartment with no yard, so we walk instead, which means I am careful about leashes, harnesses and doors and I do not let dogs off leash anywhere that is not enclosed. Only 1 or 2 dogs are ever here at once, so there is no group play and no surprises with other people's dogs.
About: Hi! I'm Kiah, a mom, music teacher, and lifelong animal lover. I've been working with animals since high school, when I spent three years working in a veterinary office. I later worked at Midtown Board & Grooming from 2016-2018, caring for dogs in a professional setting. I've owned and cared for a wide variety of pets throughout my life, including dogs, cats, snakes, fish, and other small animals. I continue to pet sit for neighbors, friends, and local families, providing dependable care for their beloved pets while they're away. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust. I've helped raise puppies from birth and have experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while in my care. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, or extra companionship, I'll treat them like one of my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I currently work a flexible schedule as a piano teacher so I have plenty of time to work for your pet! My teaching schedule is 3 days during the week from the hours of 6-8 and the rest of the time I am home taking care of my son, pets and the house. I care for every pet as if they were my own, while following the specific routines and instructions provided by their owner. I make sure pets have fresh food and water, regular bathroom breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I also keep their environment clean, safe, and comfortable. For pets staying in my home, I provide a calm, welcoming environment and maintain their normal feeding, walking, and sleeping routines as closely as possible. For in-home visits, I follow the client’s instructions carefully and make sure their pet feels comfortable and cared for in their own space. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual personality, needs, and comfort level, and I keep owners updated so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands.
“Trinity was extremely attentive and went above and beyond to communicate through every step. My husband and I had a little bit of a last minute scramble to find someone to watch our puppies and she immediately made all our worries disappear. She asked all the right questions and made sure to give us timely updates throughout the day. She even cleaned up after staying and helped us with some packages and watering plants. She hands down is a perfect option to watch you fur babies and we will 100% use her again in the future.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Kingsland
Ashley stayed at our house for a week over Thanksgiving and took care of our 3 dogs, barn cats and large animals (cows and donkeys). She communicated with us daily and sent pictures. Took care of our deliveries, etc. I highly recommend her! She treated them like family, and I think they liked her so much that I may have even sensed a bit of disappointment in them when we got home! :D
I liked her a lot, and I knew she had a regular job, but I wished I had found someone to hang with my cat and not just sleep there. She only could spend a couple of full days . I repeat, I knew that going in, and because the previous person I had arranged through Rover bailed on me in the last few weeks, I was just thankful I had found Ashle!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Kingsland is $38 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $64 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Kingsland 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 Kingsland 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 Kingsland 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.

- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
