“Tamara was just the best! All three of our dogs warmed up to her right away and we knew that was a great start. She took wonderful care of all of them and gave them lots of love, treats, and attention over the week. She sent us lots of pictures which was really great too. We will definitely book future visits with her.”
“Kari was amazing. She loved my dogs, sent photos, walked the GSD, accepted packages, and mowed the yard. I could not have asked for anyone better, and I’ll book her for my next trip. Communication was great, and I have no hesitation about using her again.”
About: I spent a few years working at an animal hospital. I am able to administer both oral medication and insulin. I had a diabetic dog myself and gave him insulin shots twice a day for four years. I am also very good with cats and know how to take care of chickens. Animals are my passion. My life revolves around animals. Taking care of my animals is basically what my life is about. I am big in to animal activism; animals are my life. They will be treated like family! I know how to take care of animals properly and keep them safe. I always feed dogs separately and watch them when they go outside.
About: I've had animals since I was a child. We've raised and owned everything from horses to ferrets. We live in 6 fenced acres with lots of room to run, jump and play! I'm super vigilant about the safety and the health of every animal so be assured your baby will be looked after! I currently work from home, so going outside, going for walks, and having playtime is not an issue here. I have time to share love and attention! Fenced yard, air conditioned home, no kiddos, no smoking in the home, with one 8 lb Pomchi that loves to play and make new friends!
About: I am currently working in a doggy daycare. I am confident being with twenty and more dogs. I understand dog body language very well and they will know and love me for it. I’m working part time currently with a fixed schedule. So I’m available Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays. I also have flexibility with my work schedule though I’d need a week notice from the beginning of the week. Preferably two weeks notice please. Your family pet(s)/furry child(ren) comfort and safety are my main priority. Quite honestly, for myself, it is such a good reward to gain their trust. Having been working with more than 20 dogs at the daycare for hours at a time, I understand what safe and healthy interactions between them are. Ultimately, I am there to make sure they all have a good time, socially and physically. I apply this to any age, size, and breed may be there. I feel confident in guiding them all in any situation, good/bad or neutral.

“Brooke is a keeper!! She cared for and loved on our dog and home, and left them both in better shape than she found them, lol! But seriously, she is mature, responsible and responsive with messages and photos. To be able to travel worry-free is a gift, and Brooke is a true gift to our home, our dog, and to our family.”
“Our dogs took to Dawn right away. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. We wre able to enjoy our vacation knowing our fur babies were being loved on and taken care of. I would definitely book Dawn again.”
“We are thrilled to have found Kelly! Our dogs are family to us, and one has serious medical issues, so we are PICKY about who we leave them with. With Kelly staying at our house, we didn't worry about our dogs for a second. She's always quick to respond and keeps us updated on everything. She clearly understands dogs and enjoys them -- and they really seem to like her! We came home to a very clean house and happy, comfortable dogs. Any future travel will be scheduled based on when Kelly is available!”
About: Hello my name is Elena and I have been around animals all my life. While I am just starting my pet sitting journey, I am so excited to provide reliable, loving care for your pets, and give you peace of mind while you're away. I have had many pets from guinea pigs and chinchillas to goats and sheep and of course my favorite fur-babies, cats and dogs!! I also understand the unique needs of foster dogs. I have lots of experience feeding, cleaning, and taking care of these various pets and hope to do the same for yours!! I am a soon to be freshman at Texas Tech but am here for the summer so my schedule is flexible. I am free to take care of your home and pets while you are having fun on a vacation, or even if you need me to pop in for a quick check up or walk. I am currently working a part-time job where I work about once every 2 weeks so I have plenty of time to check up and take care of your pets. I am free Monday through Friday and am willing to work weekends. I am used to many different kinds of pets. I currently have 2 indoor/outdoor dogs and 3 indoor/outdoor cats who use litter boxes. I have one fenced in outdoor guard dog with her own little dog house, and one barn cat that roams around and takes care of the pests. I am also familiar with dogs who use puppy pads and dog doors.
“Kelley was fantastic with my pups and took into account all their quirks! She even got my really picky eater to eat all his meals. The house was even cleaner than I left it when we got back!”
“Alex was a great pet sitter over the holidays. She was a good communicator and helped with all the things around the house that needed to be done. Our two cats and dog were well taken care of.”
About: I have owned dogs all my life, little ones to large dogs. I enjoy what dogs have to offer us humans and their own unique personalities. I will walk your dog, take them to the dog park or just come and hang out with them so they are not alone all day. I know how some dogs have issues with separation anxiety and I would like to help with that. I want their humans to feel more at ease while their away at work or vacation. Resorts can be stressful for some fur babies. I have experience working in veterinary clinics and pet resorts. I am able to give meds to the pet if needed. I'm available any time during the day and most weekends. If you have questions, please feel free to email me or call! Currently working full time but that doesn’t take away from taking care of your fur babies. I am able to drop in visits or in house sitting. I would prefer staying at the clients home. It is less stressful on the pet. I have a full house so may be uncomfortable for them.
“Jennifer is amazing and took great care of our puppy. She is very knowledgeable and truly has a love for animals. She is super responsive to messages and sent updates throughout the day which help us know our puppy was in good hands. She is very conscientious and insistent about leaving our home clean and perfect when we returned. Can’t recommend her enough. We were very pleased.”
“If it wasn't for this nice lady we would not have been able to get away for some piece and tranquility for a few days. We desperately needed some time away from home. She was there when she said she would be there and spent the night with him in our home. Earle, our GSD loved her. He is quite high strung so it was imperative that he get along good with her. And he did. Oh he missed us a bunch and the welcome back from him was unbelievable, but we noticed him looking for Kimberly after we had been home for a few hours. We know who we will call from now on when we need to get away. Earle said so!”
About: I have taken care of animals from a young age, we have always had family pets from dogs to cats, lizards, fish, rescues etc. and my grandparents had farm animals like horses pigs, chickens and goats that I was around from a young age also. I have always cared for our family pets as well as neighbors, friends, and family throughout the years. I typically house sit when watching the animals also and can take care of things like collecting mail and packages, etc. I currently work part time form home so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule to care for animals. I also enjoy going outside so don't mind taking dogs on walks etc. I have a 1 acre fenced in backyard with lots of grass and trees for animals to play. I also have an outdoor enclosed fence about 8x10 that I can use to separate dogs if needed. And I have about a 5x8 fully enclosed outdoor catio as well. I have plenty of space inside the home to let animals rest as well as a garage if it is too hot during the day.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Mineral Wells on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 166 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mineral Wells. 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 Mineral Wells 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 Mineral Wells 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 Mineral Wells 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 Mineral Wells. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% 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.
