About: At my old apartment I used to dog sit and I have experienced the puppy stages to adult. During High school I used to be in FFA so I have some experience in farmhand. As of recently I’ve volunteered at shelters and it’s taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, how to read body language and much more.I’m currently trying to start college to study veterinary. I’m available Monday-Wednesday from 9am-8pm and Thursday-Saturday from 10am-5pm everyday. Sundays I take off unless of an emergency and you need me to watch your furbaby immediately. Whether your dog needs exercise and playtime, your cat needs calm companionship and litter box care, or your pets simply do best staying in their own home, I’m happy to help. I can assist with feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and giving your pets the attention and affection they deserve.
“Jane watched our fur babies for the first time, while we went to a concert. She was excellent! She has a calm demeanor, which is perfect for our little loves. Our little girl takes medication, which is very important to be given on time. We also feed our babies a food that has to be prepared a special way with supplements added and Jane was great! We checked in on our cameras a few times to make sure everything was going great and the babies were very comfortable with her! We will definitely use Jane in the future to come to our home. and watch our fur babies. Thank you again, Jane!”
“Kylie exceeded all expectations! She sent me updates and pictures every day. Circe seems to love her. My house was as I had left it. She will definitely be my go to dog sitter.”
“To say Kimberly was a good or even great dog sitter does not nearly do her justice! She stayed with my dogs through Hurricane Beryl even when my house didn’t have power for days in the middle of summer. She made sure they were cared for and as comfortable as possible, going so far as to put cool wet towels on their backs and taking them to her house when I lost power, and made sure to stay in contact with me throughout the storm to make sure I knew how they were doing and were safe. I will be a repeat customer of Kimberly’s any time I go out of town and while I would love to gatekeep her so she has availability for me lol I cannot recommend her highly enough to others!”
“Pon is amazing. He has watched our two fur babies multiple times now and we will continue to use him! I am able to relax on our trips knowing they are in great hands. He not only takes care of the dogs but also the house. His communication is fast and we have zero complaints. We haven’t had good experiences in the past with others so it is refreshing to find someone who loves what he does. Thanks Pon!!”
“I have 2 senior dogs and Melinda was amazing with them. My German shepherd’s warmed up to her almost immediately. She went above what was needed while looking after them both. I will book with her the next time we have to travel.”
“Abigail was absolutely amazing! My dogs loved her, and she kept me at ease the entire time with consistent updates, messages, and photos. She truly went above and beyond—not only taking great care of my dogs, but also leaving my home spotless. She washed the sheets and towels she used, cleaned up, and handled everything with so much care and attention to detail. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Stacy took great care of my fur baby! She sent me daily updates and pictures of him, and made sure to spend so much time giving him attention. This was my first time leaving Bentley, and I felt so comfortable leaving him in such great hands! She even took him on extra walks, and I couldn’t be more grateful :)”
About: Hi! I’m Gloria! I graduated from Penn foster last year to become a Veterinary Technician and I’m taking my VTNE to become a licensed veterinary technician in October and have over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats in both hospital and clinical settings. I specialize in providing safe, compassionate, and attentive care for pets of all ages, including puppies, seniors, and pets who need extra patience or medical awareness. My background includes assisting with procedures, monitoring recovery, supporting medication routines, and recognizing early signs of stress or illness. Because of my experience, I’m especially confident caring for: • Senior pets • Pets with anxiety or special needs • Pets requiring medications or close observation • Multi-pet households I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home. I focus on keeping your pet’s routine consistent, providing lots of attention and comfort, and keeping you updated with photos and messages so you always feel at ease. My goal is simple — to provide reliable, professional care so your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. What sets me apart, yes I can give medications but I don’t know how to give insulin to diabetic patients. ✔ 8 years veterinary experience ✔ Comfortable with medications & special care ✔ Experienced with senior and anxious pets ✔ Strong attention to safety and behavior changes ✔ Reliable communication with daily updates ✔ Calm, patient, and dependable I’m available Monday through Friday from 8 am to 5 pm for dog sitting, dog walking, or house sitting and if have cats I can take care of them as well. I plan to dog or cat sit at the comfort of the owners home but if they need to come to my home for any reason my home is fenced and I do have kennels and extra food and water and I do have two dogs who are super sweet and kind. I also have a cat and he gets along with dogs and cats if you need me to cat sit your cat at my home I can do that as well
“LOVED! Was the first time I’ve used Courtney or anyone out side of family in years and I felt comfortable since day one and the pictures of my boys smiling throughout the whole stay just made it better! Will absolutely reach out to Courtney for my future needs”
About: I’ve always grown up around all different types of animals from dogs and cats to snakes and fish so I have had lots of practice. I have had many family members, family friends and friends of my own ask for help and I’m always so happy to do so!! I am currently taking an online class for college so I am available almost any time and any day. I cannot do Saturday’s because I live with a toddler so I stay home and visit with family on the weekend, but other than that I am free, so why not spend it with cuties!? I always keep up with the animals that are in my care I always make sure I’m paying attention to what they eat, how much they are eating, making sure they have water at all times, I make sure to take them on at least 2-3 walks a day depending on how long they are in my care! I also make sure to provide them some fun and playtime so they are not alone all day or in a kennel cooped up all day either.
“My experience… actually Jovie’s experience as well :-) with Adelle was phenomenal. Adelle’s professionalism, care for Jovie and my house was exceptional. I would recommend Adelle without hesitation to everyone who is looking for a caring and knowledgeable sitter for their pets. Thank you!!”
“Aubrianna was the best house sitter I’ve had . She was on time and kept me up to date on everything about my dog. I felt very comfortable with her there and keeping an eye on everything . I will book again in the near future”
“Josh and Erin kept my dog for six days in their well kept home. They are very kind and loving people. I was afraid of leaving my dog with anyone but after our meet and greet I felt assured they would be excellent caregivers. They were awesome with my dog and treated her like family. I will not hesitate to ask them again to dog sit my dog. I appreciate how they treated my dog and kept me informed with text messages and photos. I believe they were concerned for my dog’s safety and wellness.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in New Caney is $45

Sirena was absolutely incredible with my ladies! I received daily communication and photo updates, which completely eased my nerves while I was away. She followed all feeding instructions to the letter and treated the ladies like family. I returned home to very happy, relaxed pups and a clean home. I will definitely be booking Sirena again :)
Erin and Josh did a fantastic job at caring for our four pups while we were away on vacation! I was hesitant about hiring someone to stay at my house while I was away, but upon meeting them, all my reservations immediately vanished. They are very professional and it was clear to us that they truly love and care for all the animals that they watch. We arrived home to healthy pups and a clean house, just as we left it. They made sure to send us daily updates while we were away as well. I absolutely recommend the both of them, and we will be using them again in the future!
Danielle took amazing care of our puppy Henry while we were out of town a few days. She went way above and beyond to make sure Henry was happy and comfortable without us. She took him on lots of walks, played with him, and kept us up to date with texts and pictures that made us feel like he was in great hands while we were away. We will for sure have Danielle care for Henry again and recommend her to anyone needing quality care for their pup.

FAQs for House Sitting - New Caney
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in New Caney on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 2,346 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across New Caney. 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 New Caney 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 New Caney 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 New Caney 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 New Caney. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
