“Ella did such a great job - she watched our dog on short notice and was very responsive and kind the whole weekend. Will definitely reach out again in the future because we came home to a clean house and happy pup!”
“Maya was an excellent sitter. My dog is not used to people she doesn't know. Maya was patient and had her cuddling up to her in no time. She was on time and took care of everthing. I would definatly ask for her again.”
“Jessica took very good care of my boys while I was out of the state for several weeks. I’ve never been away from them for so long before so I was very nervous but after a few days of checking on them and getting pictures, I knew they were in good hands with Jessica.”
“Trevor has been an incredible sitter for our dog, Odin. He communicates clearly and consistently, keeping us updated and giving us complete peace of mind while we’re away. It’s obvious how much he genuinely cares for Odin, and that love and attention really show. We even had a small pet emergency while we were gone, and Trevor handled it quickly, calmly, and with so much care. We were incredibly grateful knowing Odin was in such capable hands. We feel so lucky to have found Trevor and couldn’t recommend him more highly. Knowing Odin is with someone who truly loves him makes all the difference.”
“So happy Erin was available to watch my babies! She is patient and kind . My dogs can behave like gangsters when they are around someone new. Erin won them over and they have made a new friend. I’m grateful she was here for us.”
“Vanessa was amazing while watching my dog Cloud!! I could not have asked for a better sitter. She was open to options to allow Cloud to have the best time with her while I was away on vacation. I also loved that she is a vet tech so I know she has the knowledge and training to do what's best if anything were to happen. I would definitely recommend letting her sit your pup, because she treats them like her own!”
“Great sitter, our girl just fell in love with her and even would look to see if would return after she left. We will surely use her again as she took great care with Mitzi's special needs and gave her the attention she wanted. AAA+”
“Kayla and Genesis are such amazing sitters. Our boy Finn loves playing with Genesis and Kayla is an attentive, caring, and detail oriented sitter. We needed to unexpectedly extend their stay due to a family emergency and it they accommodated without an issue. I can’t recommend them enough!”
“Megan was absolutely awesome! My sister and I have labs, which are obviously high maintenance dogs, so we were hesitant in using rover, but MAN are we glad we met Megan! She tended to their every need & loved on them extra for us. She sent daily photos and updates and even did some cleaning up around our house (amazing right?!). I felt so safe and secure with leaving the dogs with her and will absolutely being going back to her when we both have to leave town again. Thanks for being the best, Megan!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover based in Granite Shoals near Marble Falls, and I’m happy to travel within an hour of the Austin area to care for your pup. I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly believe they’re family—not just pets. I currently share my home with Josie, my sweet 10-year-old Pug, and Bella, my energetic 2-year-old rescue Pit mix. Having dogs at very different life stages has given me experience with everything from senior care and slower-paced walks to playful energy and enrichment. Over the years, I’ve regularly helped friends care for their dogs—whether that meant walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company while their humans were away. I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and genuinely loving toward every dog I meet. I live a healthy, active lifestyle and enjoy trail walks and neighborhood strolls, always tailoring activity levels to each dog’s needs, age, and personality. Your pup’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your dog—feel free to reach out with any questions! My full time job is mostly remotely, which gives me the flexibility to plan my day around a pet’s needs. This allows me to provide regular walks, meals, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I prioritize safety, trust, and consistency. I follow each pet’s routine closely, ensure secure environments and safe walks, and treat both pets and homes with care and respect.
About: I’ve loved animals my whole life, growing up in a home full of pets, which sparked my passion for caring for them. I spent four years working in the veterinary field, gaining hands-on experience and deepening my love for animal care. During that time, I worked as a kennel technician for two years and as a veterinary technician assistant for another two years, providing attentive, compassionate care to pets of all shapes and sizes. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom, which gives me plenty of free time during the week to dedicate to pet care. I’m able to provide consistent attention, companionship, and care for pets on a regular basis, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I have a friendly 7-year-old dog who loves companionship and playtime! I also have a huge fenced yard, perfect for pets to safely run and enjoy the outdoors.
About: Hi all! ☀️ I’ve sat for my friends and family members throughout the years. I have experience caring for young and senior pets. I don’t discriminate, I love all animals! 💖 No matter the pet, I always make sure they’re always loved and cared for! I love taking pets on a walk, playing with toys, snacking together and cuddling. I don’t have any pets of my own, which means my full focus will be on your angel(s)! 👼 Sitting is also a way to get my weekly dopamine boost, as I am pet-less at the moment 😆 I have a full-time job, so I’m not super flexible during typical work hours M-F, but I have lots of flexibility after work and on the weekends. I would be honored to watch over your babies, thank you for taking time to look through my profile! 🫶 I work full time M-F from 8:30am to 5pm. I WFH on Tuesdays and Thursdays and have some flexibility these days. On M, W, & Th I get home around 6:40pm ish. Free on the weekends! I keep my apartment clean and organized at all times. When I’ve sat for friends/family I always cleaned up after myself and am very respectful of their space. I will also take care of any plant babies you have, as a plant mom myself! 🪴
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.
“Trinity was extremely attentive and went above and beyond to communicate through every step. My husband and I had a little bit of a last minute scramble to find someone to watch our puppies and she immediately made all our worries disappear. She asked all the right questions and made sure to give us timely updates throughout the day. She even cleaned up after staying and helped us with some packages and watering plants. She hands down is a perfect option to watch you fur babies and we will 100% use her again in the future.”
“Kristin house-sat for us for a little over a week. Not only did she watch over Lexie and Oreo, our home was also well taken care of and she even washed the bed sheets and towels. Would recommend and definitely book again.”
“Needed a last minute booking and Jaymi saved the day! 1000% would recommend to care for your fur babies! Didn’t have to worry one time, & my picky fur kids were as happy as a kid in a pool! Thank you sooo much J!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Lake Victor
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 294 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lake Victor. 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 Lake Victor 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 Lake Victor 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 Lake Victor 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.
