“Great experience with Rasika and our pups :) she was so attentive and great with communication! Even went to the pet store to get something for one of our dogs upset tummies. Our home was left clean and our 2 doggie girls were happy and well taken care of while we were away. 10/10 recommend!”
“Luna and I had the most precious and wonderful experience with Lindsey! We will 10/10 be utilizing her again in the future and anytime I travel. I requested a short notice dog sitter and found Lindsey to be extremely responsive and responsible. We set up a call the day before I was leaving and I was impressed immediately at her attention to detail and clarifying questions. During her stay with Luna, “Miss Lindsey” was extremely communicative and sent pictures and updates throughout the day. Luna is very active and Lindsey took care to take Luna on wonderful longer walks and excursions each day. I could easily tell by the pics how comfortable and happy and safe Luna felt with Lindsey. When I returned home, my apartment looked better than when I left it! Luna and I give Lindsey the highest recommendation for your pet sitting/ walking needs. It was truly a fabulous connection and experience 🫶🏼🤍”
“Our dog does not like people other than my wife really. But she took to Christine on day one and was climbing into her lap that night. It is such a relief to know someone who gets along with our dog is taking care of them. Would definitely hire again!”
“Willow is so sweet and loving to my baby Afi! She loves animals so much. Super easy to work with & communicative. I give her a shared note on my phone with directions and she follows them thoroughly. I’ll be booking Willow again!”
“We’re new to town, and it’s always a little nerve-racking finding someone new to watch your baby. I’m so grateful we found Woody to watch our dog Woody (meant to be, right!?) in our home. I’m a pretty nervous pet parent, but Woody made me feel totally at ease from the start and took such great care of our boy. The updates and photos were perfect, and I knew both Woody and our home were in great hands. Highly recommend, and we look forward to booking with Woody again!”
“Kaia was the absolute best!!! 5 stars!!! First, she was prompt to begin the appointment. Secondly, she completed all the feeding and playing and walking activities with our dog expertly. And she was the most kind and considerate in all her communications! Highly recommend :) thanks so much Kaia … we felt so safe with u taking care of our Charlie Bear.”
“Magdalena went up and beyond. I was nervous leaving my dog. Magdalena eased my mind at the meet and greet. She sent pics and cute texts every day. She cleaned the house, which wasn't expected, yet appreciated. When I came home my dog didn't care I was there. She's probably wondering where Magdalena was. I will definitely be using her again.”
“Shameray did a great job taking care of my three pups and always kept in communication during my time away. She sent photos and let me know how they were doing. Dogs were happy!!”
“Melissa was great! The dogs loved her and were perfectly taken care of. Very responsive and sent pictures and videos while we were gone to make it a little easier to be away from them. Will absolutely book again!”
“Ashlea was great! She was available over a holiday weekend on short notice and we felt comfortable having her come over and let out our dog while we were gone all day. She was prompt in responding and super friendly. She came over a day or two before our departure to meet and greet, all the while asking great questions about our dog. The actual visit itself went great. We received pictures while we were out and lots of updates. Our pup was very happy to have someone let him out and play with him while his owners were out for the day. Highly recommend and hopefully we can use her again!”
“I almost didn’t want to leave a review because I’d love to keep Aleksi to ourselves 😊, but he is one of the best Rovers we’ve ever had. I’m always nervous leaving Woody with anyone, and Aleksi made me feel completely at ease from start to finish. His communication was fantastic, the updates were thoughtful, and he took amazing care of both Woody and our home. We came home to a happy dog, a spotless house, and total peace of mind. I can’t recommend Aleksi highly enough and would book with him again in a heartbeat!”
“Bria was absolutely wonderful with our pets, Jax and Meeka! She took Jax on plenty of walks and always made sure he got the exercise and attention he needed. We loved receiving regular photo updates—both Jax and Meeka always looked happy, healthy, and well cared for, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear they were in great hands. We would absolutely trust Bria again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
About: I’ve basically always had a dog in my home until recently. I raised my rescue pit from about 2 to 16. Since her passing, I have dog sat for friends and coworkers, both in my home and their homes. Any age/breed is my favorite! Whether it’s a 4 month old puppy to a senior, I will give them the same care I’d give my own pet. I work full time Monday-Thursday until 5pm and am available all day Friday-Sunday. I am available to do walks after 5pm Monday-Thursday and anytime Friday-Sunday. When I’m pet sitting I typically go straight home after work and hang out with them the rest of the evening. My favorite part of the day is coming home to a happy, wiggly butt. While doing doggie day care, you can expect routine walks, couch cuddles and playtime. In a clients home, I am there to help keep that pets routine so I will care for them in whatever way you would like me to. I’m willing to take them on walks, run around in the yard or even go on doggie play dates if they are accustomed to that. In my own home, I do live in an apartment but I have a dog park and I typically take them on walks every 4 hours or as needed. They are also allowed to sleep in my bed or feel free to bring their own. No need to be crate trained but preferred if they tend to be destructive at times. I also live close to Zilker Park if they enjoy going for walks at the trail!
“Elle B. Was the consummate professional dog sitter . I would recommend her services to my best friend . I was preparing to take my house trained dogs to kennel because I was traveling to Mexico . Before I kenneled them at shelter , Elle B. accepted the job . The dogs were in fantastic shape when I returned a week later ??”
“Jessica was communicative and super accommodating when I shortened my trip in the middle of it and came home earlier. Plus her dog Sebastian is awesome and I loved that my more playful pup had a friend!”
About: Cooper and I love all animals. I’ve had dogs for 20+ years and have had multiple years of experience caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes. I promise your furry friend will be in good hands! I work full time, but can let dogs out during my lunch hour and can take care of dogs after 5 pm during the work week. On the weekends, we are fully able to take care of dogs throughout the day. We live in an apartment complex but have close access to the trail and an open dog park. I have a corgi; but can crate if needed. Your dogs safety is my first concern. Whatever you need, we can adapt!
“ Melissa was very accommodating of my requests. I am very particular with how I want my dog to be cared for and she was attentive to my needs. My dog was happy when I returned.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lost Creek
Lucy was absolutely wonderful with our pups, Buffy and Bourbon! We were traveling over a long weekend and couldn’t have felt more comfortable leaving them in her care. She was incredibly communicative throughout our trip and sent us lots of photos, which gave us peace of mind and made us smile while we were away. It was clear from the moment we got home that the dogs absolutely loved her. She took great care of them, stayed in our home, and was respectful and thoughtful about everything. We came home to happy, well-cared-for dogs and a house that was just as we left it. We would absolutely trust Lucy with Buffy and Bourbon again and would recommend her without hesitation. She’s responsible, caring, communicative, and clearly loves dogs. We feel very lucky to have found her!
My two dogs can be... a lot. And I'd never had anyone stay with them at my house before, so I wasn't entirely sure what to expect before I left on my trip. But Cory was a pro. Not only did my dogs fall in love with him but I was able to enjoy my vacation without worrying about them thanks to Cory's regular updates and excellent communication. I'll book him again in a heartbeat. Thanks, Cory!
Amazing experience with Luke! Our dogs are pretty spoiled and we were hesitant to try Rover since we usually leave them with family. But Luke was so accommodating, even with our shy dog who takes time to warm up to new people. He was communicative throughout, sent us great photo updates, and was just the sweetest with them. Highly recommend him!
Sara took wonderful care of our dog, Alli, and our cat, Luna, while we were away for four days. She was reliable, communicative, and gave us complete peace of mind. She sent frequent updates and lots of pictures, which made it so much easier to enjoy our trip knowing they were doing well. When we got home, both Alli and Luna were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s obvious Sara genuinely loves animals and treated our pets like they were her own. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring pet sitter!
Brooke was wonderful with my senior dog Lucky. She came over for a long meet and greet and got know his routine before we confirmed the booking. She was able to administers his medication and take care of all his needs during the stay so I knew Lucky was in good hands. She shared pictures during the visit where Lucky always looked happy and relaxed. So glad to know we had someone take such good care of my little man.
Aimee did an amazing job watching our animals during spring break. She sent multiple updates and photos of our Fur babies. We will definitely look into using her again when we go on vacation. It was wonderful to know they all were taken care of and happy with her watching them.
Sophie was amazing with my little Rhino!! She was professional, attentive, and took the time to understand Rhino's needs. Throughout the stay, I received regular updates and photos, which reassured me that my pup was happy and well-cared for. When I returned, Rhino was in great spirits, proving that he was in loving hands. I’ll definitely book Sophie again!!

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 Lost Creek 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 Lost Creek 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Lost Creek 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!

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 .

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.
