“Kinsey is the probably the best pet sitter we ever had! She took care of our simba with utmost care and love. She updated us with photos and details everyday. She was disciplined and extremely caring. Would recommend her. Because I am definitely getting back to her as long as she is available.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for most of my life, helping friends, family, and neighbors with walking, feeding, bathing, and providing companionship. I’m very attentive, patient, and gentle, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners peace of mind. I work full time on campus, which gives me a consistent schedule along with flexibility during lunch breaks and in the evenings. This allows me to provide reliable care, check-ins, walks, and quality time with pets. I’m also available on weekends and communicate clearly to coordinate schedules that work best for you and your pet. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I’m attentive, calm, and reliable, and I make sure pets are well cared for during visits, walks, and evenings. I respect your home, follow instructions closely, and communicate regularly so you feel confident your pet is in safe hands.
“Amelia took such great care of our dogs. She sent photos while we were away and was so good with all 3 dogs. She stayed in touch and asked questions when she needed to. She braved the downpour of rain to make sure the dogs went outside. Amelia was awesome and so respectful with our home, and I could tell she took care of our dogs and they enjoyed her company. We highly recommend Amelia to take care of your babies 🥰!”
About: I have about 7 years of professional experience working with animals (medicating, bathing, kenneling, etc.) as well as growing up with at least one dog and cat in the house, I currently have 3 fur babies myself an English Bulldog named Kujo, a Domestic Shorthair names Ramen Noodles and a Domestic Medium hair named Nimbus. Along with my 3 babies I am also a Veterinary Technician. I am around dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes 24/7 medicating and loving on while they are under my supervision! I am constantly snuggling and playing with my personal pets and I am the exact same way with the patients at my job. Just because the babies at work may not come home with me I always treat them as if they were my own.
“100% recommend booking !!! I cannot recommend Linda enough !!! We have used her multiple times and will use her every-time ! My puppies love her and she sends updates everyday with lots photos and explains how they are doing ! The house is always well kept and feel so much ease leaving knowing she is there taking care of them !!”
“Crystal is hands down the best dog sitter I’ve ever had. Within 10 seconds of our first meet and greet, I could tell Apollo felt safe with her. She takes such good care of him, gives him all the love, and sends the cutest photo updates. I know I’m leaving him in the best care when she’s watching him. Can’t recommend her enough!!”
“Lindsey was so amazing. I had a last minute pest spraying at my apartment while I was gone and she was able to take my cat to spend the day at the vet so he would be out of the way. I got lots of pictures and messages. I was comfortable knowing that he was in good hands while I was gone. I even came home to a perfectly clean apartment! I would definitely book with her again.”
“Madison was quick to respond to my request for a home sitter. She was kind, personable, and my dog appeared to connect with her quickly. She was helpful in answering questions while we were away and kept me updated a few times while we were away. She took care of my dogs medical needs while we were away. She offered to strip the bed she slept in and took the trash out before our return home. Upon our return home, I mentioned her name in conversation with a family member and my dog was quick to turn his head as if he knew who I was talking about which tells me he connected very well with her. I recommend using Madison as a home sitter.”
“Ashley was amazing, she watched my cat Phoebe at home for me and kept her happy and active. She also left a postcard and new toy before leaving which was super sweet. Would definitely book again.”
“Brittany was wonderful! Very accommodating to our schedule. Lucie did great and didn't seem to mind having a sitter two days in a row! :) She sent us pictures which was very nice and just added to the confidence we had that she was in great hands and being well cared for! If back in CSTAT, would definitely book with Brittany again and would highly recommend her to watch anyone's fur baby!”
“Jessica and her fiancée are amazing. I left my 1 year old golden retriever with them for an entire week. Griffey is still a little rambunctious, but he seemed to have a great time playing in their backyard and with Jessica’s other dogs! In addition, Jessica sent lots of pictures and videos throughout the week which put my mind at ease. I would definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve always loved being around animals and, since I can’t have my own dog while I’m in college, I love any opportunity to spend time with them. I’m going into my senior year at Texas A&M in the Mays Business School and have a flexible schedule this summer in the Bryan–College Station area. I have 8 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets like they’re my own. From energetic puppies to older dogs, I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule with plenty of time for pet care. I’m available most weekdays and weekends for drop-in visits, and I always make sure pets get consistent, timely care. I always prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort. I carefully follow all instructions, keep a close eye on pets during visits, and make sure they feel secure and relaxed. I respect your home and keep everything clean, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you feel at ease while you’re away.
“Kayelee was great! Took care of the dogs and cats during a weekend of thunderstorms. She also diligently tracked the care of the animals and provided updates throughout the week. Would definitely book her again when we go out of town!”
“Carolina was wonderful and really gave us peace of mind during our trip. She was excellent at communicating and giving updates to us and also left our home clean. She will definitely be rebooked by us in the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was about 7 years old. My family owns a ranch with all sorts of animals and I have always had a passion for caregiving. I’ve worked with daycare facilities, home boarding and even fostered dogs. I feel as though my experience has helped equipped me for any dog’s needs. I am full time dog mom. Here to assist with daycare, boarding, and drop-ins. I really enjoy spending time outdoors and running with the pups. Please schedule a meet and greet to best associate our pet and address your needs. I have a 3 year old male Wheaten Terrier who is head of the welcome committee. We love to play and run and share our toys with all friends. There’s a dog park that we attend daily and would love to have some friends join us. Our complex is dog friendly and in a gated community. Your dog is in the best hands with us!

FAQs for House Sitting - Kurten
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 276 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Kurten. 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 Kurten 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 Kurten 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 Kurten 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.

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.
