“Shea was great with our cat! She was a great communicator and understood how to handle our older cat. Our cat can sometimes be a bit cranky when we get back home but this time he was much more relaxed because of the time she spent with him.”

About: I volunteer in animal rescue shelters, so I’ve been around all kinds of pets. I also nursed a parvo puppy until the virus went away. I’m a pre-vet college student from Monday through Thursday, but I’m free during weekends to care of your fur babies. I usually walk large dogs from shelters, so I have experience with dog walking. I know all dogs are different, so I’ll make sure your pet isn’t over exercising. I also know bloating can happen, so I am cautious of how much water and food they’re consuming.
“Ariana stepped in at one-day's notice to care for my cat during my 10-day vacation - she was also more than willing to help water my plants while we were away. She took such amazing care of my cat and was so communicative while we were away. I am so grateful for Ariana!”
“Kourtney was great with my dogs and always kept me informed with plenty of pictures. My dogs loved playing with her and she really took the time to keep them active and entertained during her 30 minute visits. I already have our next visits scheduled.”
About: I used to work at a pet daycare/boarding facility a few years back, and it was my favorite job by far! I’ve done some care and boarding for family and close friends throughout the years. I’m ready to share the love with more fur-babies! I have a corporate job, but I stop by during lunch on a regular basis on weekdays. I’m available before 8am, at 12pm, and after 5pm. I am available all day on weekends. I have a big fenced back yard and tons of dog toys. My home is all hardwood flooring, so I generally have pets roaming freely if they feel comfortable.
About: Hello ! I have over 25 years of experience caring for dogs through pet sitting, fostering, and volunteering with the Humane Society. I provide loving, attentive, one-on-one care in a safe home environment. I offer complimentary baths and basic grooming (no haircuts) during stays, along with personalized care for puppies, seniors, and dogs with unique routines. Your pup will be treated like family! I look forward to hosting your puppy/dog. My flexible schedule allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day, including mornings, evenings, and weekends. I currently work part-time, which allows me to be home much of the time and give pets plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision during their stay. I have a spacious backyard and live in a gated community where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time, play, and exercise. There is also a dog park right beside my house (just a one minute walk!).For overnight stays, I focus on maintaining your pup’s normal routine while providing a comfortable, loving home away from home.
About: I treat every pet I care for like family. I know firsthand how much they mean to us because I have a fur baby of my own. I understand the trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s hands, and I know how reassuring it feels to have a reliable, loving sitter you can count on while you’re away. I have experience with dogs of all ages from energetic puppies learning routines to senior pets who need a little extra patience and gentle care. I’m big on consistency, making sure feeding times, walks, and playtime stay on schedule. I also believe communication is key, so I always provide updates and photos to help you stay connected and confident your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is simple: to give your pet the same love, comfort, and attention they get from you, and to give you total peace of mind while you’re away. Hi there! I’m Shinel a lifelong animal lover, proud dog mom, and someone who understands the importance of dependable pet care while you’re away. Since I sometimes travel for work, I know firsthand the peace of mind that comes from having a sitter you can truly trust. That’s why I treat every pet I care for as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable at all times. When I’m not spending time with my own fur baby, you’ll usually find me out for walks, enjoying playtime, or cuddling up with the pets I sit for. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate a variety of needs, whether it’s regular drop-ins, overnight care, or last minute plans. My goal is to make your time away as stress free as possible for both you and your pet. In your home, I respect your space and follow your instructions closely to ensure your pet’s comfort and safety. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while maintaining their normal routine. When pets stay with me, they become part of the family. I provide a calm, cozy environment, daily walks, and lots of love. I’m also big on communication, so you can expect regular updates and photos to stay connected while you’re away

“Jazlyne was amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure that my pet was taken care of in my absence. My pet took to her really quickly which is unusual for him. I would book again.”
About: I’m extremely experienced with all breeds due to my father breeding cane corsos and American bull dogs. Since I’ve relocated to Houston I have 2 dogs and my daughter loves all animals so this will give her the bonding time to play and gives you your time away as well. I am always home. So they won’t miss out on any attention, I am a full time student (online) so it really gives me the freedom to pet sit. I’m very attentive so I’ll give your fur babies exactly what they want whether it’s a walk, potty break or cuddles. If your dog has any special way of doing things I’ll be sure to follow your rules.
“Larisa went above and beyond! I booked with her pretty last minute, and she was incredibly flexible and accommodating. She kept me updated throughout the entire stay and even took my dogs to the dog park, which was such a thoughtful extra and not something I had asked or expected her to do. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in great hands. I will absolutely be booking with Larisa again!”
“Sara is so sweet and you can tell she loves animals. My 2 little ones liked her from the very first meeting. She came twice a day to feed, play and let them outside. I was so relieved on my trip and knew I had nothing to worry about. I highly recommend her.🥰🐶🐶”
About: Hi, I’m Alex. I’m a professional dog walker that’s completed over 2,500 walks and Pack Lead here in Houston, where I train and coach other walkers and make sure every visit meets a high standard of care. Before pet care, I spent 18 years in customer service, so going above and beyond for the people (and pups) I work with comes naturally to me. My schedule is flexible, and I’ll work around your routine and your dog’s routine. I’ll treat your dog like family and your home like my own. I walk dogs full time during the week, so I’m available weekday late afternoons and evenings and all weekend. Evenings are great for an after-work walk, a potty break, or a dinner visit when you’re running late, and on weekends I can do walks, drop-ins, or extra care while you’re out. Booking early helps me hold your preferred time, and I’ll confirm every visit ahead of time so you never have to wonder. For regular clients I keep a steady routine, because dogs feel safest when they know what to expect. Your dog’s safety and your peace of mind come first for me. I check leashes, collars, and harnesses before every walk, keep a secure hold the whole time, and watch for hazards like heat, traffic, other dogs, and anything on the ground they shouldn’t eat. I follow your instructions exactly, from feeding and meds to house rules, and I’ll lock up and leave your home the way I found it. Your home is private, so I only let someone in after I’ve confirmed with you that it’s okay. As a Pack Lead I train other walkers on these same safety standards, so careful, consistent care is something I do every day. You’ll get updates and photos after each visit, and if anything comes up I’ll contact you right away

I'm available every weekday and weekends, anywhere from 5:30am to 8pm! I want your pups to be comfortable with me! I'll always take it slow never push them if they're uncomfortable. I can offer social walks with my own dog, Diesel, if your dog gets along well! Otherwise, I'm happy to do solo adventures!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mount Houston
Shea-lyn took such great care of our two pups while we were away! She made sure they were well cared for and loved, and even gave treats to the kitties when they made an appearance. 😊 It gave us peace of mind knowing everyone was in good hands. I would definitely use Shea-lyn again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, dependable sitter!
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 Pet Sitting in Mount Houston is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 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 6,409 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Mount Houston. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Mount Houston. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
