“Angelica was fantastic! She was very responsive to our short-notice house-sitting request and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. She sent us daily photos and updates of our two dogs, Winston and Coco, which we really appreciated. She took great care of both our pets and our home and promptly let us know of any issues that arose. We came back to happy dogs and a well-cared-for house. We would absolutely recommend Angelica and would be happy to book her again!”
“Sarah was fantastic! She was so sweet with our three girls at the meet & greet, and they were in great spirits when we came home. Our American Bulldog, Boxer mix, and elderly kitty cat all loved her! She kept us updated while we were away and left our house clean and secure. So thankful for her comprehensive care over the holiday.”
“This was our third time booking with Kimmie, and once again, she exceeded our expectations! 🐾 She takes such great care of our dogs—it’s clear they feel safe and loved while we’re away. We always come home to happy pups and peace of mind knowing they’ve been in such capable hands. Kimmie is reliable, communicative, and genuinely kind. We trust her and feel so lucky to have found her. Highly recommend! 💯”
“Jackeline is an amazing sitter! She was able to pet sit for us on short notice and our fur babies absolutely love her! She is very good with communication and kept us updated on how our fur babies were doing while we were away from them. It was the first time we had left our puppy home with anyone since we adopted him so this mama was a little nervous. Jackeline made sure to communicate with me and keep us updated on how he was doing. If you’re looking for an amazing sitter we would fully recommend Jackeline. We look forward to having her sit for us again in the future!”
“Dorian was terrific. From the moment we met him we felt confident that our kitty and our home would be well taken care of. He did not disappoint. We would gladly have him stay anytime we are away.”
“We had an amazing experience with our Katelyn! She took exceptional care of our pups and kept us updated with frequent messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. When one of our dogs went on a food strike, she didn't panic and she thought outside the box, found a solution that worked, and kept us informed every step of the way. It's clear she genuinely cares about the animals she watches. We came home to two happy pups and a well cared for home. We would absolutely recommend her and will definitely be booking her again!”
“We couldn’t be happier with Val. She made our dogs and cat dreams come true. She played with them to their hearts content. Our Willie, which is a bit more shy immediately took to her. She also did things that were above and beyond, like watering my wife’s tomato plant. I have no doubt that we will re-booking with Val many many times in the near future. Thank you, Val!!”
About: Hello There! My name is Carolann - I have tons of experience both professionally as well as personally working with cats and dogs. I have grown up with animals all my life, not ever the same without them. I did a 1 1/2 years of veterinary assistant program; here I learned about animal behavior, grooming, care, and safe animal restraint. I also worked in a boarding facility at an animal hospital for about 7 months, where we would board multiple dogs at one time (all breeds and sizes). I would give the dogs bathes, nail trims, water throughout the day and feed per owner instructions/schedule. I enjoy playing fetch, and challenging the dogs to try tricks and training manners. I do work a part time job at a dog boarding facility but very flexible hours and have a 3 year old son. He is amazing with all animals and enjoys throwing the ball for them. I'm home all day to allow for potty breaks and to keep the fur babies attention/company. Their health and well-being is number one priority. I have a large corner lot in Homestead. Decent space for dog(s) run and use the space to their likely. Even have a large Reviene located behind my house for a short stroll around the neighborhood.
“Michael stayed at my house for 7 days while my daughter and I took a trip out of state. He took excellent care of my house and my dog. I would definitely use him again!”
“Kat is absolutely AMAZING and I cannot endorse her enough! I have an elderly cat and a dog, and while I was out of the country for almost two weeks, Kat kept me up to date with pictures and regular communication. They absolutely LOVED their time with her, and I will *definitely* be using Kat every time I travel! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10/10 And whatever other "perfect score" you can think of”
About: I have cared for dogs and cats most of my life. My parents always had pets and I would walk them, feed them, groom them, and love them. I also have a small Papillon dog. I love animals, there is something so calming about spending time with a fur friend and I would be happy to care for yours when you need. I will take them on long walks, take them to the vet if needed, and I also bath them if you need me to as long as they allow me safely. I live in a great neighborhood to take them on walks in Austin. I work 8 - 5 M to F in office. I can stay in your home and care for them in between coming and going to work. I would need to be able to stay in your home and care for them as my place does not allow extra dogs. I have a car so I can get to and from easiler
“Raven treated our (3) pets like her own, they were very happy & well cared for. We had a literal book of instructions and she seemed to have it all figured out & everything was in great order when we got back. We will definitely call her next time we travel!”
“Brandi is great at communicating and understanding my anxious pups needs. George was so happy and relaxed when we came home from a week long trip. I'm so happy he has such a caring new bestie to stay with him when we're out of town.”
“Annabelle is a perfect find for us! She loved our four-legged babies like her own. We loved that she would send videos and photos each day while we were away! We came home to a clean and picked up home showing she respected our space. She’s also just a sweetheart and she will always be our number one pet sitter!”
“Nhu and Kevin took great care of our 6 yr old boxer that has a heart condition. They administered medication as directed, fed him appropriately (he has a pretty particular diet), walked him regularly, and most importantly let him snuggle all he needed! He usually gets separation anxiety when we leave, and loses weight as a result…we could tell he felt safe and comfortable with Nhu and Kevin because he looks healthy! We got pictures or video every day, which helped calm our nerves about his health and anxiety. They also took great care of the house. They made sure our pup stayed out of the kids rooms, helped with trash days, and left the house cleaner than when we left! (Thank you!) I am looking forward to rebooking them - and I’m sure our dog is , too!”
About: I’ve been caring for my friend's and families' dogs for over 15 years. They trust me to care for their dogs like I would my own and know that their dog will be given the best care possible. I work full time but I work from home so your dog would not be left alone for long periods of time. I would only be away from home for small periods of time for errands if anything. I have a house with a large fenced yard. While my dog Gunnar is very dog friendly, I do require a meet and greet so you can get to know me better and give our dogs a chance to get to know each other. We want your dog's stay to be as fun for them, and stress free for you, as possible.
“Lauren was great with Cali! She provided lots of pictures, made sure to get clarification when needed, and set our minds at ease while we were away. We would definitely book again!”

Elizabeth was great with our pups - she sent us lots of pics & had great communication. The house was super clean & organized when we got back from our trip which was a lovely bonus. She even drove us to the airport - WOW - so kind! We would love to have Elizabeth back at any time.
We had a great experience with Jasiris staying at our house to watch over our two pups! She sent some really sweet pictures and videos while we were gone. She was great with being especially careful with one of our pups who was injured, giving her medication and making sure our other pup was keeping her distance. Thanks so much Siri for taking such good care of our girls!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 4,338 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Manda. 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 Manda 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 Manda 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 Manda 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Manda. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
