“Molly was fantastic and even handled my chickens with ease! My kitties and girls were happy and healthy, and the house was safe and locked up tight. Thanks Molly! Would definitely book again”
“She was amazing! I booked a quick 30‑minute drop-in and she went out of her way to walk both of my dogs individually. She was super sweet, patient, and my pups absolutely loved her. I’m so grateful for the extra care — we’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Gina did a great taking care of our dog while we went on a college tour! They played, walked and relaxed after the time in the sun! He had a great time and was so comfortable with Gina that he rolled over for lots of belly rubs! Thanks Gina!”
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I currently cohabitate with 2 chill canines & have enjoyed fraternizing with many a feline friend! I work from home, volunteer & foster with Best Friends Animal Society, & petsit for friends & family. Other side hustles include renting out my pool on Swimply and providing caregiving services for friends and neighbors. I’m a retired teacher with a heart for service and lots of time, patience, & love to give! Our home has 2 empty bedrooms, so anxious guests (cats especially) can initially have their own space to decompress if needed. As they adjust & decide to venture out, there's a pet gate separating the guest “wing” from the main house, which allows for visual inclusion while providing a physical safety barrier & peace of mind for timid or socially awkward visitors. The ultimate goal is full inclusion with the “pack”, which is almost always achieved! In addition to daily walks for dogs that are leash-trained and arrive with a harness, there’s also a dog door that leads to a large, shaded backyard & pool. “Door concierge” service is provided every few hours for nervous guests who may find the dog door a bit intimidating. Cats are kept indoors at all times. Items to bring: food, treats, bowls, bed, toys, leash and harness for dogs (and potty pads if necessary), and litter box with litter and scoop for cats. Please ensure that your pet is altered, microchipped, vaccinated, and wearing a collar with ID tag for safety purposes.
About: I love dogs, I had 2 of my own until I had to move and could not take them with me. I had to give them away to good homes. Now to enjoy time with dogs I help watch my friends and family. I take them out for walks or if they go on trips I take care of them. I love to take dogs out to the backyard or parks to play fetch, run around, and tug-a-war. I also love taking them out for walks it is very calming and it helps them stretch out their legs and enjoy the outdoors. I love dogs from when they are puppies to when they grow up and become big and tall. I am available anytime you need the help. We have a cat and some fishes of my own. I want get a puppy and more fish soon. My family and I love animals. Our pets are well taken care of. Our cat is nice and fluffy with a happy belly. Our fishy have a nice size clean fishy tank.
“Nathalya did a great job caring for my cat! I really appreciated her quick communication and flexibility. All the pictures she sent of my cat during check ins gave me peace of mind that my cat was happy and cared for!”
About: Having my flexible schedule is beneficial because I can take the time to carefully follow each pet’s routine and any specific instructions to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m also very communicative, so you receive regular updates, photos, and peace of mind while away. I’m patient and attentive, which helps when caring for both energetic pets and those that may need a calmer, more gentle approach. I have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to prioritize pet care throughout the day. I can accommodate any daily needs, including walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I enjoy being active with pets and making sure they get consistent attention and care. I focus on consistency and making pets feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their established routine so the pet experiences as little disruption as possible. I also keep the space clean and provide updates so owners feel at ease.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I provided dedicated senior care for my chocolate Labrador, Copper, who lived to the incredible age of 18. Today, I have two pit bull mixes that join me on hiking adventures throughout the year, and I even harness-trained my kitten for outdoor adventures. I treat every pet like family and understand that each has their own unique personality, needs, and routine. Whether they're energetic or need a little extra care, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I am currently a wedding photographer in off season and have pretty good availability during the week for pet sitting. I typically work weekends but with enough notice and special occasions I'm flexible. I have one high energy dog and one older dog. So daily walks are a must. Sometimes separate and sometimes together. Our walks are typically 1 to 2 miles. I have two friendly dogs at home but I do have smaller home and a husband with allergies. So in my own home would probably be a case by case basis. As for other people's home's I'm flexible and respectful of house rules.

I take care of fur babies every single day and absolutely love it. I will love your fur babies like they are my own. Pet care is fit into my daily and weekly routine by my full time job at the animal hospital. I work with the hospitalized patients who needs special care and attention. Then when I go home I care for my three fur babies! I care for my pets at home by having a set routine with their feeding, restroom, and exercise with also managing a full time job. I will bring this routine to my clients home and match it with their fur babies!
“Can’t recommend Lily enough. She’s thoughtful, extremely detailed, and goes above and beyond. She took care of our 2 year old Golden while we were gone for the day and made sure he had everything he needed to be happy and comfortable. She stuck to his routine and kept him safe which is all we could ask for.”
“Sarah is wonderful! She did everything I asked, and my kitties love her! I'll definitely request her again, and highly recommend her. Thank you so much Sarah. ???? Toni & Gordon (and Clover & Boudreaux). ?”
“Carole took care of my two girls for the second time. They loved her! She took great care of them and adjusted to all their quirks. I have a diabetic dog and she was able to administer shots as well. I have her hired for two more weekends already! Highly recommend.”
About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! Growing up, my family had both Dachshunds (wiener dogs) and cats, so I’ve always been surrounded by furry friends. Today, I’m a proud dog mom to two Bernese Mountain Dogs, ages 7 and 2, who have given me plenty of experience caring for large breeds with big personalities! I also lived with cats during college, so I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. Through the years, I’ve learned that every pet has its own unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply keeping your pet company, I understand how important it is to provide patient, attentive, and loving care. As a pet owner myself, I know how much trust goes into leaving your furry family members with someone else. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, happy, and treated like family while you’re away! I work a consistent schedule Monday through Wednesday from 7 AM to 3 PM and have the flexibility of working remotely on Thursdays and Fridays. My work-from-home days allow me to provide extra attention, companionship, and care throughout the day! I’m also available in the afternoons and evenings during the week, as well as on weekends. I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that best fits your pet’s needs and routine! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your furry family member is in good hands. I strive to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where every pet feels comfortable and cared for. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, routines, and personality, whether that means plenty of playtime, a quiet place to relax, or extra cuddles and attention. With two Bernese Mountain Dogs of my own, I understand the importance of proper introductions, supervision, and respecting each animal’s boundaries. I always follow your pet’s normal feeding, exercise, and care routines to help them feel as comfortable as possible. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and loved while you’re away!
About: I always make sure to go by the rules & routine of the owners when it comes to feedings, walks, medications, etc. If I have any questions or concerns, I contact them directly. I have taken care of many dogs & cats ranging from a variety of my friends/family members and a few neighbors. My favorite part is cuddling and/or playing with them because that just brings me joy. My job is pretty flexible, so I’ll be able to take a dog on a walk or feed any dogs or cats mid day. In my home, my cat has an area of his food & water as well as a separate area for his litter box. His sleeping area varies because he’s our spoiled boy. I make sure that if the pet makes any kind of mess that I clean it up right away with any cleaning supplies that are available and wash laundry if needed.
“Kelly was honestly the best. We took a last minute trip out of state and she was able to accommodate our schedule last minute and was wonderful. The definition of above and beyond! She followed our instructions to the letter, even brought in some packages that got delivered while we were out. Our pups were happy, well taken care of and loved seeing her at each drop in - we also got very detailed updates and beautiful photos at each drop in. Our pups may have been little bummed when we showed up after our trip instead of Kelly. :)”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Mission Bend is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 5,547 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Mission Bend. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.

- 96% 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.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. 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.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
