Zackie was great! Thank you so much for taking care of Harper! I was able to go out of town and not worry. She showed up on time every visit which was important for Harper’s meds. I will definitely request her again!!

Mercy went above and beyond caring for our 3 animals. They spent time with BMO (who is a lovebird) reading to him and making sure he stays social while we were away. They gave lots of attention to our very needy cat who loves all the attention from everyone. They made sure to check in with our elderly cat to make sure she was OK while we were away because she gets stressed. I highly recommend Mercy for your pet care needs, and we will be using them again.

About: I have cared for cats for most of my life but 5 years ago my fiancé and I adopted my first dog. For the past 5 years, I’ve cared for my dog, Mary Jane, who has been my sweetest teacher in understanding dog behavior, routines, and communication. Through caring for her, I’ve gained hands-on experience with daily walking, feeding schedules, basic training reinforcement, administering simple medications, and creating a calm, consistent environment for a happy pup. I have also cared for many friends pets while they were away on vacation. I may be new to Rover, but I’m not new to being a responsible, attentive animal owner. Caring for animals is already woven into my daily rhythm. I work part-time with flexible hours, giving me plenty of space in my schedule for peaceful walks, playtime, and check-ins with pets. I’m used to creating a balanced routine around my own dog, and bringing that same calm, attentive energy to other pets feels completely natural. I am currently free to sit/walk any day of the week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and familiar environment for them. I follow your routines exactly as you outline them — from feeding instructions to walk times to any training cues your dog is used to. I keep doors and gates secured, monitor their body language closely, and make sure they always have fresh water and a comfortable space to relax. Trust is extremely important to me, so I communicate clearly, send updates/photos, and treat your home with the same respect and care I treat your pet.

About: I have two cats and a dog all adopted from shelters. I treat pets as family members with love, respect, and responsibility. I believe that pets are choosing you to be their family. I ran my own business from home, so I can manage my schedule myself. That gives me more flexibility to take your dog on a walk or come check them in the afternoons. My dog walks in parks and trails, exercising, and playing every day. We do not have a fenced yard. I believe it is important to have quality walk time for the dogs. he also is going along with other dogs very well if that is something that you would prefer to add to your dog care time, I could walk them together.

About: I love that my career gives me the flexibility to help other pet owners feel at peace that their animal is taken care of while they are away. "Happy to help" is something I frequently say and being able to get in my daily steps with your pets is just an added bonus. I have plenty of time for walks or checking in on your animals. My career gives me the opportunity to have a very flexible schedule to help other pet owners with dog walks or check-ins. Responsibility is key. I understand that it is important to keep your animal safe and healthy by making sure that on walks we are avoiding other dogs, just in case, safely secured on the leash, not walking on hot pavement and plenty of water on hot days out.

About: Hello! I’m Erin, a full-time high school teacher and pet-sitter on the side. I’m an animal lover and I have been pet sitting for 10+ years. I have a ton of experience caring for a variety of dog breeds and cats, as well as a few smaller animals (rabbits, hamsters, birds, and fish). I’m calm, caring, and patient, with a soft spot for senior animals. I’ve had a great deal of experience caring for my own senior pets (both dogs and cats). I’ve provided care for animals with diapers, medication, and mild mobility issues. I’m also experienced in caring for diabetic cats and administering insulin, as I’ve helped two of my rescues go into remission. I strive to provide the best care possible for pets, and peace of mind for their owners! Please be aware that starting August 25th, I will be at work from 7:35 am-3:05 pm. I’m currently a full time as a high school teacher, so from 7:35-3:05 on week days, I’m usually at work. If I am pet sitting during the week, I head straight to the pets at the end of the work day. On weekends, I am able to dedicate most, if not all, of the day to spending time with your pets. This is also the case over the summer. I provide pet care in client’s homes, per the directions provided by the clients. Prior to caring for your pet(s), I ask that we arrange a time for me to meet your pet(s) and go over all pertinent information regarding their care and safety.

April watched my cat, Evie, while I was away for two weeks, and she was amazing. She kept everything on schedule, sent thoughtful updates, and I came home to a happy, relaxed cat. It was such a relief knowing my pet was in loving, reliable hands. I'd absolutely trust April again and recommend her to anyone!

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a baby. When I got to middle school my friend asked to watch her dogs while her family was out of town and I agreed. While Covid was still around I would do virtual school and take care of our dogs while my parents worked. I am hoping to do this part time while I am home from college (Between Middle of May and Early August). I am available any time during the day. I can feed the dogs or medicine if needed, fill the water bowls, take them outside (a fenced yard is preferred please or trained), I am willing to walk dogs to get any energy out.

About: Hey my name is Brooklyn! I have been around pets my whole life and have a very deep love for all animals! I am very lenient with pets, they are allowed on furniture and they won’t be crated unless that is your preference. I have two mini dachshunds at home, they are very friendly and enjoy having other pups over! I have a very flexible schedule! If your pup is staying over, I am home most of the time unless I need to step out for an errand! I also have two pups of my own so meshing your pets into our routine is easy! We are very open to pets in our home, our pups lay on the couch and sleep in the bed. We do have a dog park in our complex and a lot of area for doing on walks!

Michele was a wonderful find. It was our first experience using Rover and we are so happy we found her. She was very good with our dog who takes a while to warm up to new people. Michele never missed a walk, was always on time and very gentle with our girl. She provided us feedback regularly and treated our dog like her own. We would highly recommend Michele.

About: I've dog-sat for a number of people, including friends and family. Trained my own dog from a puppy, including a number of tricks! I do have some experience bathing, but my specialty is in company and walks! I go to school full time, and work for a few hours a week in the office. Talking care of and walking your pet would be as beneficial for them, as it is for me! I have gaps in my schedule that would accommodate the typical hours people are working! Although I cannot board pets in my own home, I can take care of pets in the environment around them. I would walk them around town, ensuring that they get the exercise they need, and even taking them to a fenced park, if that is something you feel comfortable with!

About: I have loved animals all my life, especially dogs, and I finally got a dog of my own two years ago. For years before that, I took care of dogs for friends and through Rover to get my dog fix! I am in my fourth year of med school and spend most of my time at home studying, and take lots of breaks to take my dog on walks and to nearby parks. I have a large fenced backyard where dogs can run! My dogs are very friendly with other dogs, and would love to have your dog as a playmate while you are away! I am in class 2-4 days out of the week, and each of those days am only there for 2-4 hours, so your dog will get lots of attention! I live with my fiancé who is also a dog lover, and one of us will be always be home or have the dogs with us if we are out. I live in an apartment, but am very active and I will take your dog on daily walks and to nearby parks. My apartment is spacious and has plenty of room for small and medium sized dogs to play!

About: I had a dog for 12 years. We went on multiple long walks per day. He was active, but also loved to lounge around. I am the same way. If the dog is energetic, I will definitely being playing with them in the yard. If they like to chill out, they can relax on the couch. I am currently working from home. I have plenty of time to care for your pup. I enjoy dogs of all sizes and miss having one in my home. The dog will be well taken care of, and I am sure, will be a little spoiled while with me. They will get plenty of exercise and belly rubs - well balanced :) :) I currently work from home, so I will be with your dog all day! I will be able to talk your pup out for multiple walks throughout the day. I live in a community where I can take your dog on long walks in a quiet neighborhood. My house has plenty of room for your pup to roam around and make himself comfortable.

Kelsey did a fine job for us. Dogs liked her and they got their daily walk in. This was our second time working with her. We’d request her again but our schedules aren’t working out this time.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Magnolia

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Magnolia on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 540 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Magnolia. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Magnolia 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.

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 Magnolia 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!

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 dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Magnolia with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Magnolia. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
