“Melissa did a fantastic job of taking care of my 2 cats! She kept me updated on how they were doing and made sure everything was good for them. Loved the pictures I received of them too!”
“My Leo took to Laura amazingly fast and appeared to be actively engaged with her during their entire visit together. It was a pleasant surprise since it usually takes awhile for him to warm up to anyone new. Thank you Laura for the piece of mind. 🤗”
About: We are a family of 5 - Erika (Spouse) Me (Patrick), Cailen (Little boy of 3yrs), Cherie (Boxer) and Chiquito (Chihuahua) always 5 in same room, love at all time and caring having fun in yard, water and running! Nobody cares about dogs like we do... provide treats, care and very loving towards dogs. Dogs travel with us, dog follows us everywhere, shaded back yard so they can run, they swim with us in the little kids pool they take sun or simply chill.... very easy life here and plenty of place to run or relax as needed. No furniture in house is off limits. You break or chew then we lose that privilege. Simple, dog fun and be reassured we will treat your dog as we'd expect you treat ours.

“Courtney took my request last minute when our prior dog sitting plan fell through. She was extremely responsive and made me feel comfortable that my two dogs would be well taken care of. I loved getting the updates and photos from each visit and being able to communicate between visits. My dogs were clearly comfortable with her, and were able to play, cuddle, and be themselves while I was gone. It gave me great peace of mind of my travels to know they were so well cared for.”
“Leah was great! Communicated well and sent lots of great photos. We don’t leave Max often because of some stability issues, so it was so nice to trust someone to be able to take care of him. Max definitely enjoyed having her come visit and would definitely reach out again.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have cared for many pets beyond my own. I’ve pet-sat and dog-walked pups of all ages and personalities, and I’ve also volunteered at an animal shelter, where I worked with both dogs and cats. I currently have a cat and two dogs at home, so I’m very comfortable providing care, attention, and love to animals of all kinds. I work 9-5, so I’m available after 6pm during the week or anytime on the weekends to check in on your pets, give them attention, and make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for! When I provide drop-in visits, my goal is to make sure your pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for in their own home. During each visit, I’ll refresh food and water, clean litter boxes for cats, and take dogs outside for a potty break if needed. I always spend quality time with your pets—whether that’s playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, depending on their personality and comfort level.
About: As a life long dog owner myself, I understand the importance of providing a safe and protected environment for your pet along with exercise and attention. I have a flexible schedule and can adapt my availability to your specific needs whether you are taking an extended vacation or just an overnight stay. I've been caring for pets for many years and understand how important routine is. I am available to stay in your home to maintain that routine or provide drop in service.
“Nathan is amazing. He’s thorough and SO communicative. He sent pet pictures and videos the entire time, and even when Diesel was being a little hellion was so patient and even spent some extra time with him to calm him down. Please use him, you won’t regret it. He’s going to be my regular sitter moving forward!!”
“Sarah took such great care of our kitties while we were gone! I felt more at ease during holidays with family when I received sweet updates of my babies! Sarah was kind, thorough, and very easy to work with. Thankful for her and I know my kitties are too!”
About: I've been an animal owner, caregiver, and caretaker since I was very young and would love the opportunity to give your pet an A+ experience while you're away! I am currently getting my masters degree online, so I have ample time to take care of your pets during the morning, daytime, and evening. I always confer with the owner about their preferences and daily routine, and try to match that as best I can. I am very gentle with animals especially when getting to know them.

About: Hi there! I’m a work-from-home cat mom in Lago Vista with 10+ years of cat experience and grew up with dogs. As a mom to five different cats, I get how unique each pet’s routine and quirks can be. I stick closely to your instructions- meds, feeding, whatever your pet needs, keeping things calm and low-stress. I only take local clients so I can be consistent and present. Since I can’t have a dog right now, time with yours is my puppy fix; I love all animals. You can expect clear updates, quick responses, and care that’s genuine and dependable. I work from home full-time, and care for our five cat babies along with my husband. Because of my schedule, I can offer flexible and reliable care for your babies while you’re away. In your home, I follow your instructions and treat your space with respect, noting hiding spots, food preferences, and behavior cues to keep your pet at ease. Meds are given carefully, on schedule, and I stay alert and communicative to any changes in health or behavior. Whether in my home or yours, my priority is a calm, therapeutic experience for the fur babies.
About: Both my wife and I have cared for pets for about 15 years now and have lots of experience with both dogs and cats. Whether it’s dogs,cats, birds, or fish we have the experience to care for them. During your pets stay you can expect daily walks and lots of play time, as well as any other special requirements that you may ask for. Rest assure your pets/family members will have the time of their life and daily pictures will be sent during their stay. If you have any questions feel free to send me a message. Having several doggos of our own we implement that into our daily routine by including them in our daily walks, and daily dog park visits. We have a big fenced in yard and live in a secure community. Working from home helps us constantly keep an eye on your pets.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

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 Lago Vista 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.

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.
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.
