“This was our 2nd time booking with Sarah! She is fantastic with communication and is great at making sure everyone is taken care of, even when we get a little busy on vacation. I love how she cares for our animals and love the silly photos we always get. Will rebook every time!”

“HANNAH IS THE BEST!! This is our fourth time booking with Hannah. She always goes above and beyond when watching our cat, even bringing in our mail and packages. She is an excellent communicator, always letting us know when she is coming and how Frank is doing. She sends lots of pics and gives a detailed description of her visits (which we always really look forward to!) When we are away, we always have peace of mind that our cat is in good hands with Hannah! (And her prices are awesome, too!) Don’t hesitate to book Hannah! You’ll be glad you did, and your pet will be too!”


About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals, and caring for pets comes naturally to me. As a proud dog mom to three mini schnauzers, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets—they’re family. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, including puppies who need structure and play, and senior dogs who need extra patience and gentle care. I make it a priority to follow your pet’s routine closely so they feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free while you’re away. I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals—whether that’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. I also provide regular photo and video updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to give you peace of mind and make your pet feel loved, safe, and cared for at all times. Caring for animals is already part of my everyday life. I plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, and quality time with pets, so I can give them consistent attention and care. I truly enjoy making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether in my home or a client’s, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment. I stick to each pet’s routine for feeding, walks, and rest, and give them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I treat every pet like my own and keep owners updated so they always know how their pet is doing.

About: Ever since I raised my dogs, I learned that they are more than just pets, they are family. It is all about patience and understanding their needs. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and have 3 dogs where 2 of them understand Spanish while my Frenchie is bilingual. I speak to my dogs in a gentle matter as they have the tendency to listen to positive tones. If pets need medication, I make sure to follow instructions as their health comes first. I currently have a dog who is a senior and on medication. I always make sure my babies are well and can tell when something is wrong. I work on a hybrid schedule where I’m in the office 3 times a week and can choose what days to go. If I am in care of a pet, I will work around my schedule to make sure I am present for them when I am at home. I do not go out at night and will be home especially when taking care of someone. I have a fenced backyard. I have 2 outside dogs (a chihuahua and a pitbull) and 1 inside dog (a Frenchie) who all have been neutered and spayed. Your pet will stay indoors for most of the time and my Frenchie will be excited to have someone to play with. Plenty of dog toys will be available. My outside dogs are senior dogs and will mostly ignore your pet as they do with my Frenchie.
About: I have been around and taken care of family dogs since I was younger. I have always been an animal lover! My whole family has at least one dog and I have an 11 year old yorkie myself! I am good with all types of dogs from big dogs to little dogs! I am currently unemployed so I have a lot of free time to take care and play with your fur babies at any time on any day. I do live in an apartment that is gated around and has a very nice and big dog park. I also have a yorkie who is 11 years old and just loves to sleep and cuddle.
“Big thank you again to this rockstar team! We love reading our cats’ detailed report cards and seeing so many pictures every day. The kitties have so much fun with y’all!!”


About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, growing up with two Chihuahuas and now caring for my two cats. Throughout high school and college, I regularly watched family friends’ dogs, handling everything from walks and feeding to playtime and keeping them company while their owners were away. I also cared for a senior dog for an entire summer, which taught me the importance of patience and sticking to a pet’s routine. Outside of Rover, I work as an IT Business Analyst, so being dependable, detail-oriented, and communicative comes naturally to me. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll always follow your care instructions closely. You’ll receive plenty of photo updates, and I’ll treat your pets with the same love and attention I give my own. Whether it’s a drop-in visit or a walk, my goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. This strikes a balance between personable and professional, which tends to perform well on Rover. It also gives potential clients confidence that you’re reliable and attentive, qualities many pet owners prioritize. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I work as an IT Business Analyst and have flexibility throughout the day, including lunch breaks, which allows me to accommodate many drop-in visits and walks. I’m available most evenings, all Friday afternoon, and weekends, and I’m happy to accept recurring bookings. I typically ask for at least one day’s notice whenever possible. I care for every pet as if they were my own by following their routine closely and giving them plenty of attention, playtime, fresh water, and, of course, potty breaks or litter box care. I’ll always send photo updates so you know how your pet is doing, and I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, using crates or harnesses, and taking my time with shy or nervous pets. Before I leave, I always double-check that doors and gates are secure and that your pet is safe, comfortable, and happy.

About: Hi! I'm a reliable and caring pet sitter and dog walker with 2 years of hands-on experience helping others with their pet care needs. I have had animals all my life, from dogs to hamsters, guinea pigs, newts, frogs, and more! I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pet company, I treat every animal like my own. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels, as well as cats and other small pets. I understand how important it is to follow your pet's routine and provide updates for peace of mind. I'm dependable, patient, and happy to accommodate any special needs your pet may have. I have reliable transportation and a flexible schedule. I'd love the opportunity to care for your furry family member and give them the attention they deserve! I have a flexible schedule that allows for morning, afternoon, or evening visits most weekdays and weekends. I can do short drop-ins or longer walks to fit your pet's needs. I have experience with dogs that are anxious around new people and will work hard to make your pet - no matter how outgoing or timid - feel as comfortable as possible.
About: My respect and love for animals was introduced early. I'm the daughter of a veterinarian and have cared for animals most of my life. Our animals are family. I look forward to becoming an extension of care and friend to your pups. I currently work from home which provides me freedom to flex my time. I adore animals and so spending time with them does not feel like work. Let me know your pet needs and we will get the ball rolling. I look forward to meeting your fur baby! I look forward to meeting you and your pets to establish familiarity and trust. I ask questions and listen to better serve the needs of your pet on the daily and long term. Whether your dog is carefree, requires lots of exercise, emotional reassurance, or requires daily medical needs - I am fully capable to take care of your fur baby. Each home and pet are unique so communication and updates with pictures mean a lot to me. I care and it shows. Note: I am comfortable administering medicine orally or via needle per diabetic needs, etc
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for about a year now. I’m really excited and enjoy the company of them. I’m hoping I can help with whatever family that needs it and I’m always a reliable source :) I’m currently a part time worker at heb so my schedule does fluctuate every week. With that said I’m more than happy to send out what my schedule looks like that week or the following to make sure I can meet the needs of your pets! I’m always taking notes of what is preferred in your house and trying to adapt to whatever your dogs needs are. I try my best to make them still feel comfortable while their owners are away or on vacation.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 4, but for the last 4 years I've been a animal care professional. Working on doggy daycare and a animal shelter. I'm well versed in dog body language, signs of illness, and all ways to care for each individual pet I meet I work full time at a shelter currently, so I'm only available Monday and Tuesday, but I'm available for as many visits as I can take those days and look forward to making others fur babies happy and loved while their parents are gone I'll make sure to give every pet as much love as I can during my visit. Making sure every moment is spent with them and for them!
About: I have loved and cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds for several years. Friends and family regularly rely on me to feed, walk, play with, and look after their pets. I am highly responsible, energetic, and dedicated to making sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you are away. Whether they need a long walk or some cozy couch cuddles, I’ve got it covered! I am currently a student with classes only on Mondays and Wednesdays. Aside from my Sunday night assignment deadlines, my schedule is incredibly open and flexible. This gives me plenty of dedicated time throughout the week and weekends to fully focus on, walk, and play with your beloved pups! I specialize in caring for pets directly in the comfort of your own home, where they feel most safe and secure. While I do have a fully fenced backyard and can crate dogs if absolutely necessary, I prefer traveling to your house to maintain your dog's regular routine, environment, and peace of mind.

I am a teacher, so I care for pets very early in the morning and all afternoon an evenings! drop ins and walks will all occur after 3pm. I have a medium sized dog that is very friendly and loves playing with new pups. He is also great with cats and has lived with them for a significant amount of time.
About: I have a lifelong passion for animals, having grown up surrounded by both dogs and cats. During high school, I completed three years of veterinary-focused coursework, including Small Animal Management, Veterinary Medicine, Wildlife & Fish, and Livestock Management. I’ve been sitting for the past 3 years through Facebook, personal referrals. I am currently taking online courses and have a part time job at grace church leaving me with a flexible schedule. I work 2 days a week 5pm-9pm and 1 day a week 7am-4:00pm I was an intern at a vet clinic for the past 2 summers so I have experience being able to read your babies body language and how to control the situation if you would like to ask how I would handle certain situations feel free to ask and I will happily answer:) I will also bathe your pets, trim nails if requested with no extra charges.

About: We have all types of toys from plush toys to Kong toys and treats. I have experience with senior dogs and puppies. Our 2 year old dog is KCG trained so we’re patient and we can even help with continuing training. From sit, down, stay, and shake. I love taking our dogs on a walk and giving them lots of attention. From them sitting next to us to playing. We believe in fun, while training. Giving them a fun and encouraging way to keep their mind stimulated while also playing and giving them love that dogs need. We have a ton of toys as well as mind stimulating toys to keep them busy and entertained until you come pick them back up. 15+ years experience I currently work full time but it is work from home.

Jessica was great for a first time drop in visit request. We did a meet and greet where we showed her the house and how to care for our dogs and she followed every step. She sent great updates and pictures while we were out for the holiday. She was very communicative and professional. I highly recommend her!

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 La Porte 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.
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 Porte 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!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
