“Dominique was great! She communicated regularly about the cats and even took extra time to try to connect with my very shy kitty. I was able to enjoy my time away without worry. Thank you Dominique!”
“Ashlee did a great job watching our Pupper Boy! Even though he was shy at first, she continued to love on him and gain his trust. She even stayed past the requested time more than once to let him rest. Thank you, Ashlee!”
“Kelsey was super responsive and took wonderful care of our pup! She was respectful and ready to learn about our girl so she could best care for her and went above and beyond for the time we booked.”
About: I’ve pay attention to dogs personalities and enjoy surrounding myself with animals. Nothing more brings me joy than a happy pet! I can teach dogs tricks especially if they’re food motivated it’s fun to see how clever they are. I’m working part-time unfortunately right now I can’t house any dogs unless they are smaller/lapdogs. I am willing to housesit and have a vehicle to provide guaranteed transport. I live next to a park that’s friendly for dogs and I’m available to walk them just about anytime. To care in your home I’m willing to go to dog parks or long walks in the neighbor to reach their needs.
About: I grew up training and showing dogs! I've also been a trusted volunteer dog walker/foster parent for local humane societies in the past, taking care of dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and ages! My family frequently fostered litters of puppies as young as 6 weeks. I also have plenty of experience with seniors and the specific health problems that come with that, after loving my cocker spaniels right up to the end. Life doesn't allow me to have a dog of my own at the moment, so I'll jump on any chance for some pupper love! I daylight as a professional wildlife biologist, but I am currently between jobs and so have all the time in the world to give your four-legged companions! My schedule is wide open. Safety is, of course, the highest priority, and reading animal body language is the key to maintaining a safe and enjoyable environment for your pet and avoiding stressful situations. This is a skill I feel very confident with after so many years of varied pet care. Second to safety is fun! Whether that looks like a brisk walk, a casual stroll, a laser pointer, a game of fetch, or just getting some relaxed quality time in is entirely up to your pet. Regardless, I'm happy to fulfill their needs.
About: I have a dog of my own and my sister has a cat. I've taken care of pets for family and friends. Both staying in house and dropping in for feeding and potty breaks. I firmly believe pets are members of the family, a friend and a companion not just an animal. I have very flexible hours. I will be returning to college in the fall but i will continue accepting bookings. Im typically available morning to late at night. For Drop-in visits or house sitting that require early morning care I am able to work it with my schedule with no issue. For drop-in visits I'll check in minimum 3 times daily for feeding, potty breaks, and short playtimes. For house sitting i am happy to stay overnight. In the event I need to leave for any reason, I'm happy to take your fluffy loved one on a car ride with me if acceptable and only if i am not getting out of the car.
“I would definitely recommend Marjorie to anyone looking for a pet sitter! She is so kind and took great care of our cat and dog while we were gone. She communicated with us often and provided great pictures and updates about our pets. I’d 100% rebook with her in the future.”
“Ashley was an absolutely amazing help with my puppy this week!! I definitely recommend her if you need any help with your pets!! Such a great time meeting her & she did so great updating me with my puppy and taking care of her for me!!❤️❤️”
About: I’ve been watching animals for ~8 years now, but I’ve had my own animals since birth! I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, bunnies, guinea pigs, cows, chickens, goats, fish, and more. Family friends and neighbors rely on me for help with their animals. I work a full time job, but am available in the mornings, evenings, weekends, and for overnights! I will always work to make time for your animals! I do drop ins and stay with pets frequently in other peoples home. I am consistent with my care and love to meet new animals.
About: Hi, I’m Camila! I’m a student at Texas Tech and a huge animal lover who genuinely loves spending time with dogs. I currently have two Bernese Mountain Dogs back home, so I’m very comfortable with big dogs and all their energy and personalities. Since I was a teenager, I’ve helped neighbors by walking and spending time with their dogs just because I enjoy it so much! I truly care about pets and love giving them lots of attention, patience, care, and affection. Being around animals has always made me happy, so this is something I genuinely enjoy doing! I’m in Lubbock for the summer taking classes during the day, but outside of that I’m pretty flexible and happy to work around your schedule. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings depending on the day. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or sitting, I can usually make it work! I live in an apartment near campus, but there are lots of green areas nearby and I’m also close to a dog park and great walking spots! I always make sure pets are safe on walks, stay on leash, and get lots of attention and care. I follow instructions closely and make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and happy the whole time!
“Kathryn is absolutely wonderful! She is dependable and trustworthy. It's obvious that she loves animals and my pups Bonnie and Boo adore her. It's been such a blessing to feel confident that Bonnie and Boo are so well taken care of while I travel for work. ❤️”
“Starlight took wonderful care of our kitties during the holidays. She sent photos everyday & spent time playing with them! We would recommend her to anyone & will use her again in the future!”
“She was great and communicated well! She took special care to make sure a wound on our cat was healing. She wasn’t hesitant at all to do the litter which was really nice. Overall she did a great job and we will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I have been pet sitting for about 2 years, but it is my favorite side job! I love animals of all kinds and sizes and have been trusted to stay in homes to take care of people’s beloved family members, and their home. I’m currently an elementary school teacher at Wolffarth Elementary in North Lubbock. Depending on what area I am in, I will usually leave with enough time to get to work by 7am. I cannot leave for lunch as I sadly only have 30 minutes, but I am done by 4 every day. This makes it easy to spend the evening with them and I won’t have different hours every day - routine is great for pets! I also share holidays with students so I am pretty available for sitting jobs at those times. While my apartment is a 1 bedroom, it is cozy and great for lower energy dogs. I have plenty of space for them to lay out and they stay in the air conditioning all day. For more active pets, I live right next to a middle school with a paved track for walking, and I am close to a park for dogs who love to run and play fetch!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Lubbock on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lubbock. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
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.
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.
