“Ella did everything we asked and more. She was great at communicating with us daily and was patient and persistent in wooing our shy outside kitties. We'll definitely have her house/pet sit for us again!”

About: I have two cats and love caring for them. I have potty trained cats and dogs, kennel trained dogs, and also gave my diabetic cat insulin and test him (hes now in remission). I love taking pictures of all the animals and showing their parents theyre well taken care of. I know how it feels to be away from your fur baby loved one! Pet care is priority over things. Services as requested. I enjoy routine bookings as well. I am going to school as well as working part time when I can so I try to accommodate the pups/ animals in my care. I offer lots of play and exercise for your pet! If not that then an experience you and your pet won’t forget. I enjoy making owners feel comfortable that their pet is safe in my care, I provide that enjoyment through tons of photos of your pet!

“Kayla was absolutely amazing! I’m so grateful to her and her daughter for showering my kitty with love and playtime while I was away. Kayla truly went above and beyond what I could have expected from a house and pet sitter. When I returned home, everything was spotless - she even washed the sheets, took out the trash, and handled other/extra details. I loved getting regular updates and photos of my kitty, which gave me peace of mind throughout my trip. If I weren’t moving soon, I’d absolutely ask Kayla to house sit for me again without hesitation. Thank you so much, Kayla! You were truly the best!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover based in Granite Shoals near Marble Falls, and I’m happy to travel within an hour of the Austin area to care for your pup. I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly believe they’re family—not just pets. I currently share my home with Josie, my sweet 10-year-old Pug, and Bella, my energetic 2-year-old rescue Pit mix. Having dogs at very different life stages has given me experience with everything from senior care and slower-paced walks to playful energy and enrichment. Over the years, I’ve regularly helped friends care for their dogs—whether that meant walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company while their humans were away. I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and genuinely loving toward every dog I meet. I live a healthy, active lifestyle and enjoy trail walks and neighborhood strolls, always tailoring activity levels to each dog’s needs, age, and personality. Your pup’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your dog—feel free to reach out with any questions! My full time job is mostly remotely, which gives me the flexibility to plan my day around a pet’s needs. This allows me to provide regular walks, meals, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I prioritize safety, trust, and consistency. I follow each pet’s routine closely, ensure secure environments and safe walks, and treat both pets and homes with care and respect.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of every age and need since I was 10 — from rowdy puppies and playful kittens to senior pets with special requirements. I’m comfortable administering oral and topical medications, tracking dosage schedules, and watching for changes in appetite, mobility, or behavior. With senior pets, I focus on gentle routines, extra rest, and close attention to comfort. With younger pets, I prioritize safe socialization, play, and structure so they get the interaction and exercise they need. I offer boarding and house sitting, so pets stay in a comfortable, familiar routine whether they’re in my care or their own home. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me for years to feed, medicate, and care for their pets like my own. I’m currently working part-time from home, so I have plenty of flexibility to give your pets real attention, not just a quick check-in. Here’s what a typical visit or stay looks like: • Available for boarding on weekends and weekdays after 2pm • Flexible daytime drop-ins for medication schedules and older pets who need consistency • Extra playtime and outdoor walks built into every visit, not rushed • Happy to adjust timing around your pet’s normal routine so nothing feels disrupted I treat every pet like my own, with a strong focus on both physical safety and mental enrichment. Here’s what you can expect: • Fenced yard and two friendly, dog-savvy dogs to keep your pet company • Daily outdoor time for fresh air, sniffing, and exercise — not just a backyard bathroom break • Enrichment activities like puzzle feeders, treat-scattering, and interactive play to keep their mind engaged • Comfortable crating available if that’s part of your pet’s routine • Careful medication administration and monitoring for any dogs or cats with health needs • A calm, decorated, pet-friendly space that feels like home, not a kennel

“Trinity was extremely attentive and went above and beyond to communicate through every step. My husband and I had a little bit of a last minute scramble to find someone to watch our puppies and she immediately made all our worries disappear. She asked all the right questions and made sure to give us timely updates throughout the day. She even cleaned up after staying and helped us with some packages and watering plants. She hands down is a perfect option to watch you fur babies and we will 100% use her again in the future.”

About: Hi! I'm Kiah, a mom, music teacher, and lifelong animal lover. I've been working with animals since high school, when I spent three years working in a veterinary office. I later worked at Midtown Board & Grooming from 2016-2018, caring for dogs in a professional setting. I've owned and cared for a wide variety of pets throughout my life, including dogs, cats, snakes, fish, and other small animals. I continue to pet sit for neighbors, friends, and local families, providing dependable care for their beloved pets while they're away. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust. I've helped raise puppies from birth and have experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while in my care. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, or extra companionship, I'll treat them like one of my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I currently work a flexible schedule as a piano teacher so I have plenty of time to work for your pet! My teaching schedule is 3 days during the week from the hours of 6-8 and the rest of the time I am home taking care of my son, pets and the house. I care for every pet as if they were my own, while following the specific routines and instructions provided by their owner. I make sure pets have fresh food and water, regular bathroom breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I also keep their environment clean, safe, and comfortable. For pets staying in my home, I provide a calm, welcoming environment and maintain their normal feeding, walking, and sleeping routines as closely as possible. For in-home visits, I follow the client’s instructions carefully and make sure their pet feels comfortable and cared for in their own space. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual personality, needs, and comfort level, and I keep owners updated so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

FAQs for House Sitting - Naruna

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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 Naruna 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 Naruna 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 Naruna 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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
