“Toni did a great job dog/house sitting for me. She was very communicative and sent daily updates. My 2 girls, who are leery of strangers at first, warmed up to her quickly.”
About: I know how stressful it can feel to leave your pet with someone new. My goal is to give you peace of mind by treating your pet like they're part of my own family. I am a certified Vet Asst with a lifetime of pet experience. After years of caring for pets, I've learned that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make sure each pet feels understood. I currently have 3 dogs and 8 cats, including a few fosters. Pet care is my full-time job, so I am available throughout the day. During each visit, your pet will get more than just the basics. They'll get attention, playtime, enrichment, and the care they're used to receiving at home. You can expect clear communication, timely updates, and plenty of photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing while you're away. I don't just see pets as another booking on my calendar. I see them as family members who deserve patience, attention, and care.
“Becky and Joel took such great care of my baby! Having a disabled dog, I get so nervous leaving him. When I met Becky and Joel, I knew they would treat him with all of the care and kindness possible. And they did just that! I am so grateful to have someone I feel confident will love my baby just like I do. I will most definitely be utilizing their services again in the near future!”
About: I’ve taken care of my neighbors dogs for about 2 years. I currently have 2 cats and have had them for a year. I volunteered at a pet hospital where I observed operations. I am currently working part time so I will have time to to care for your pets during the mornings. I am free most days of the week. I have 2 cats who are very fond of dogs. They have a catio so they are usually on the balcony. For your dog I can easily make them a space to play as well.
“Annalise was wonderful! She watched out two dogs and cat for us for the weekend and everything went perfect. She is very friendly and did a great job of sending photos and updating us while we were away. She was very respectful to our home and the dogs seemed very relaxed and happy when we got home. I e had a bad experience with someone watching our dogs for us when we are away so I was very nervous especially with one of our dogs being very anxious and having separation anxiety. She listened to our concerns and we couldn’t have hoped for a better experience. Thank you!! We will definitely rebook :)”
About: I’ve been caring for and raising dogs for over 10 years, and I currently have a rescue poodle named Zeke who I’ve had for 3 years. He’s spoiled with homemade meals, gets two walks a day, and plenty of playtime chasing balls. I treat every dog I care for like family—because that’s what they are. My goal isn’t just to walk your dog, but to make sure they have fun, feel safe, and enjoy their time out. I’m attentive, experienced, and genuinely passionate about dogs. Whether your pup is high-energy or needs gentle care, I’ll tailor the experience to what they need most. Currently, I’m in between jobs, which means I have a very open and flexible schedule to care for your pup throughout the week. I’m available most days, mornings or evenings—just not Sundays, as I observe the day for church and rest. Your dog will always get my full attention when they’re with me! When I walk your dog, their safety and happiness are my top priorities. I use secure leashes and harnesses, avoid high-traffic areas, and pay close attention to each dog’s pace, energy level, and comfort. Whether it’s a slow sniff-around-the-block or a playful, active walk, I tailor the experience to your pup’s needs and treat them like family every step of the way.
About: I've been a pet owner for half my life. I could not imagine life without a furr baby. They bring joy to my life. They are part of my family. I work from home so it makes it easy to attend to the needs of taking care of your pet. I can work on a flexible schedule. I have a fenced yard with plenty of running space. I have one small shihtzu who would enjoy the company. They are free to roam in the house as well.
“Ava was amazing with our two dogs and cat. She was in constant communication and provided daily updates. Our pets loved her! Would highly recommend and will be booking again in the future!”
About: I’ve been raising animals my entire life and genuinely love caring for them. I’ve had experience with a wide variety of pets, including fish, dogs, hamsters, and guinea pigs, so I understand that each animal has its own personality and needs. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, walks, or just giving them attention and comfort, I treat every pet like they’re my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. My schedule is open and flexible, so I’m able to provide care whenever you need it, whether it’s regular visits or last-minute requests. I have one dog of my own and a spacious, treated, and securely fenced yard that provides a safe and comfortable environment for your pet to enjoy.
About: I’m a 21‑year‑old college student with experience caring for dogs, cats, and puppies, offering reliable routines, patient support, and attentive, loving care for every pet. As a full‑time college student who only serves one night a week, I have early mornings and night flexibility to give your pets consistent, attentive care. I’ve grown up with many cats and cared for dogs of all ages, including pets with medical needs. In clients’ homes, I follow their routines closely—feeding, playtime, litter or potty breaks, meds if required, and plenty of attention. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and relaxed by maintaining the environment and habits they’re used to.
About: I don’t just “watch” dogs, I hang out with them like they’re my own. I’ve got experience with all kinds of pups, from wild little puppies figuring things out to older dogs who need extra patience and care. I can help basic feedings, keep up with special diets, and even give meds if that’s part of their routine. I am a full time college student; however, I am happy to visit at any time throughout the day when I am not in classes. I am also completely available on the weekends! Id love to talk more about scheduling if needed. I will ensure that your pet stays safe by always keeping a watchful eye over them and ensuring they don't get up to any mischief!
“Sarah took such great care of our pups! It means a lot to know you can trust someone to take care of your fur babies while you’re away. Will definitely reach out again for dog sitting when we need it.”
“Chi Chi is the best!! She stayed at our house for 5 days over the holidays with our dog Storm and for the first time ever Storm was calm, happy, and not shaking when we got back. She sent plenty of photos and videos and kept Storm on track with all of his medications. She also took him on multiple long walks each day, which our dog needs to stay fit. She also left the house super clean and tidy!!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for 8+ years, and my passion for animals has grown into a career in veterinary medicine as a veterinary physiotherapist. My professional experience has given me hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, including senior dogs and pets with special needs or mobility challenges. I currently offer house sitting and dog walking. I work a regular daytime schedule Monday–Friday, so my house-sitting routine is built around morning and evening care during the week, with full-day availability on weekends. I’m a great fit for families traveling for vacation who want their pets to stay comfortable in their own home and maintain their normal routine while they’re away. While you’re gone, I’ll keep you updated with daily photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ll follow their normal feeding, potty, walking, medication, and exercise routines and treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I work full-time Monday–Friday as a Veterinary Rehabilitation Technician. I provide morning and evening care around my work schedule during the week, and I’m available all day on weekends. I’m especially happy to care for pets while their families are traveling, keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. I treat every pet in my care like they are part of the family while respecting their individual needs and routines. My experience working in veterinary rehabilitation has taught me to be attentive to changes in behavior, mobility, energy, and overall comfort. I follow your instructions carefully and prioritize keeping your pet safe, comfortable, and happy in their own home.
About: I've taken care of 4 big dogs at the same time for more than a week and stayed the night. I still take care of them to this day. I have also taken care of cats and cleaned the litter box included. My last experience I've had was puppy sitting and I had up to 6 English bulldogs plus the parents I took care of. Took them to vet appointments as well. At this point no pet is too much for me! I do have a part time job as a preschool teacher, I work a normal Mon-Fri. I am available all Monday-Sunday. I do have my own transportation so if I stay the night while sitting I have a way to work and back. I always make sure to ask different question to guarantee safety for both the owner and the pet. I personally only have 3 cats and I live in an apartment so they are indoor cats. That's how I keep my babies safe.
About: I have had lots of pets. From newborns to Seniors. Pets are amazing. Take your dog for walks or just sit with your pet in the sunlight for company I’m retired so I can walk your dog anytime. I can come over when you need me to. I’m flexible when it comes to scheduling Right now, I don’t have any pets. I get my dog and cat fix by visiting friends that have pets. Your pet will be treated like he/she is my pet.
“We recently had the pleasure of having Tammy take care of our two dogs for five days, and we couldn’t be happier with her services. After years of holding off on vacations due to our dogs' special needs, Tammy provided us with a newfound sense of freedom. Her ability to administer injectables was a crucial factor for us, and she handled it with professionalism and care. Tammy also went above and beyond by collecting a few Amazon packages that arrived during our absence. What truly set Tammy apart were her daily updates and photos. It was so comforting to see our dogs happy and well-cared for while we were away. We can't wait to work with Tammy again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable and compassionate dog sitter. Thank you, Tammy, for giving us peace of mind and allowing us to enjoy our vacation worry-free!”
About: I have my dog since he was a puppy, he is 9 years old now. As a dog owner and cats, I don’t mind to babysit the other owner pets when they are busy. I currently work from home allowing to have time to spend caring for your pet. I am excited to spend time with your pets. We will go on daily walks and I will work to maintain their routines from home while you are away from your furry friend. I have a spacious fenced in yard where I can take your pets to safely play. My home has an extra pet room that they can have for themselves during their stay.
About: I have always had animals growing up. Raising cats to be 17 years old, and currently raising my 9 month old boxer which is very fun and rewarding. I work part time so I will have plenty of time to check in on your fur babies or let them stay with me and give them all of the attention If you board with me I have a big crate that my dog does not use but I’m more than willing to let your animals roam free. I do live in an apartment but I take MANY trips outside to the walking track and dog park. I spent most of my time outside making sure my own puppy gets plenty of her energy out.

Absolutely the best ever ! She sent updates along with pictures she is the absolute best ever ! My poor crew gave her a run for her money and I feel so bad for that unfortunately my gate doesn’t connect to the house for some reason so my dog decided it was a cardio day we are fixing that !

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in La Marque is $53 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $63 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.
As of October 2026, there are 740 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across La Marque. 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 La Marque 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 La Marque 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 La Marque 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in La Marque. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
