About: I've cared for various cats and dogs of all different breeds and sizes. Being a highly active individual previous clients can attest to the healthy positive environment I create for their pups. I also have experience with more challenging dogs like those who are rescued and have a knack for dogs feeling comfortable around me. Well my profile might look a little blank I have done house and pet sitting for years through Word of Mouth. I recently moved from out of state and created a Rover profile to gain more clients, as I am new to the state of Texas. I work early in the morning and I am off at 2, i have a couple days off during the week. So mid afternoon or evening walks/check ins with about 2 mornings a week is realistic for me I will make sure they are safe, comfortable, and well cared for throughout my stay. I will follow the owner's instructions and keep their home clean and secure. I will also take the pets for walks as needed and give them plenty of attention and companionship. I will be respectful of their home and make sure both the pets and the property are treated with care.
“Arianna was wonderful, and Piper seemed to really warm up to her and enjoy herself while we were gone. We're thankful for the communication and that the house was left clean after her stay. We will look forward to hiring Arianna again in the future!”
About: I have been around animals all my life. The smartest I do have experience pet. Sitting bathing, walking and working with animals of all breeds and types. I work part-time so this is perfect for my schedule. And it would allow me to do something I have enjoyed doing my whole life which is taking care of fur babies I give them unconditional love lots of playtime, and all the outside time they could possibly want or need. I also have the areas for the more timid and shy babies to be able to decompress.Should they need to
“Jadyn did a really great job taking care of our dogs & chickens. One of our dogs had been spayed & needed A little extra care but she had no issues doing those things. She kept us updated with photos the entire time. We will definitely use her again if we need someone.”
“She was really great with my dogs and left my house clean and even got my laundry and dishes started without me asking. It was my first time having a sitter stay at my place, and it worked out well.”
About: What sets me apart is my experience across all life stages, from energetic puppies needing structure to gentle seniors requiring extra patience. I confidently provide puppy training support and am fully comfortable administering oral medications. Your pet will receive the precise, dedicated care they need to feel safe and happy Pet care is the central focus of my daily routine, not an afterthought. Since I work from home, your pet will enjoy constant supervision, regular potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. My schedule allows me to easily maintain your pet's exact feeding, walking, and medication routines without interruption. When caring for pets in your home, I strictly follow their familiar routine to minimize stress, keeping feeding, walks, and oral medication times exact. Whether hosting or visiting, I prioritize clear communication and always send daily photo updates so you can see your pet is happy and thriving.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lacy-Lakeview
We’ve used Daniel twice now and couldn’t be happier! He did a meet-and-greet with us and the dogs before confirming the first booking, which gave us a lot of confidence. Our four dogs seem to really like him, and he’s taken great care of them on both short stays and a longer 8-day trip. He follows our house guidelines, makes sure the dogs are well cared for, and takes time to play with them every day. We felt totally at ease while away and would definitely recommend him!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lacy-Lakeview on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of August 2026, there are 144 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lacy-Lakeview. 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 Lacy-Lakeview 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 Lacy-Lakeview 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 Lacy-Lakeview 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.
