“Shea-Lyn was fantastic taking care of our cat. He’s elderly, needs attention and medication twice a day. She confirmed his medication intake and played with him for a while which he really loved. Will definitely book her again!”
“Julie is the best cat sitter I could ask for. She’s always there for me—even when I need to book something very last minute or unexpected. She is very detail oriented and punctual, and never fails me!!”
“Ariel is amazing. We are out of town and she's going above and beyond her job. She's helping out with a last minute furniture delivery and getting medicine to our dogs who are boarding somewhere else. She's truly amazing”
About: I’ve always wanted to adopt a dog but haven’t had the chance to just yet. My last roommate had the best boy ever. He was gentle but playful and loved people. I liked to consider him my own pup. I loved taking him for walks and playing with toys but also enjoyed his nap times too! I’m a pretty active person but also like to enjoy watching tv so a kitty or pup that has both traits is welcomed! Please let me know if your pet has special needs or requires medication. I work from home full time with plenty of time in between meetings. I like to go for a walk after work and sometimes between meetings. I do not allow animals in my bed but I do prefer owners to bring items that have familiarity to them so that their fur babies feel safe and relaxed.

“I had such a great experience with her! She was extremely communicative, attentive, and reliable throughout the entire time she cared for my pup. I really appreciated how detailed she was with each drop-in and the updates she provided—it gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands.

About: With over 10 years of pet-sitting experience and a lifetime spent around animals, I bring both experience and genuine care into every home I enter. I believe pets deserve more than having their basic needs met—they deserve patience, companionship, affection, and someone who takes the time to understand their individual personalities and routines. I’m attentive, nurturing, respectful of each pet’s boundaries, and committed to creating a safe and comfortable environment while their family is away. I also treat every home with the same care and respect I would want someone to give my own. I have taken care of all sizes of dogs from Rottweilers to German Shepard to jack russel terroirs. Cats, dogs, bearded dragons, bunnies, turtles and more. I truly enjoy having a pet as they bring life to a family in ways they never knew they could!

I understand that every pet is different, so I take time to learn their feeding and walking schedules, energy levels, boundaries, favorite activities, sleeping routines, and any special instructions their owner provides. I also respect all home rules, including where pets are allowed, cleanliness expectations, security procedures, and how the home should be maintained. My goal is to keep their environment and routine as familiar and comfortable as possible while providing plenty of attention, companionship, and loving care. 🐾🤍

“Gabrielle truly loves and cares for the fur babies. She was very thorough with instructions I had for a prescription food and probiotic regimen, for my cat who just recovered from an illness, and with communication for updates. Would definitely book again and recommend Gabrielle for your pet sitting needs.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Mount Houston
Shea was wonderful with our fur babies. Even though two were very shy and did not interact with her, at least Lola became her best friend. Shea was attentive to details and instructions I left with her and completed them completely. I will definitely hire her again for our next vacation.
This was our first time with Mirella, and she was super attentive and communicated well. She was so kind and had great attention for our kitties. She’s very proactive and knows how to deal with situations in the best way possible. We are so grateful she agreed to take care of our boys!! Definitely recommended booking your next visit with her 🥰.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Mount Houston is $23 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $36 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 810 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Mount Houston. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 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.

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 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.
