“Jane has watched our two dogs twice this summer and we highly recommend her. She's consistent with her care with our dogs as she ensures she's caring for them up to our standards. She takes care of our home and leaves it very clean. Highly recommend her.”
“Jessica was awesome!! She took my last minute booking to stay overnight with my dogs! She is so sweet and my babies loved her! She sent me pictures and I was shocked to see how calm they were! I will definitely use her again!”
“Kori was super great, put my mind at ease as soon as he came over to meet my babies. He communicated and responded very clearly and professionally, will definitely be reaching out next time we go out of town!”
“Elizabeth was the best! She took such good care of my three pups, despite one of them not feeling too good. She was on top of her medications and genuinely looked for ways to entertain them. I am grateful for having had her housesit because it gave me great peace of mind to know that it was all getting taken care of by someone trustworthy who actually cares. Without a doubt, I will be requesting her services as soon as I am out of town again! Thank you!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. I have also taken care of guinea pigs, small birds and fish. I have always been an animal lover and have a passion for them. I treat them like my own children. I even have a two dogs and a cat of my own. I believe in treating them with gentleness, kindness and compassion. I am currently a homemaker of an older child. I am available everyday to care for your pets. I can stop by and do potty breaks, walks, playtime etc. I can also spend more time with them to give them company and affection. House sitting with your fur babies is also an option. My husband can take care of the needs at home while I care for your pets. I can offer playtime, medication administration if needed, walks, potty breaks, attention etc. plus any other needs that are special to your fur babies. I can also crate your pet if need be. I pride myself on the safety and protection of all fur babies.
About: I’ve been caring for animals—including dogs, cats, and chickens—for nearly all of my 28 years. What started as a lifelong love for animals has naturally grown into a passion for caring for them. I also have experience caring for elderly animals and understand that senior pets may need a little extra patience, attention, and TLC. My background in healthcare has taught me the importance of being observant, dependable, and attentive to individual needs—qualities I bring to every pet in my care. I know how important it is to feel confident that your pets are safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I strive to give every animal the same patience, attention, and affection I give my own pets. My goal is to make our time together fun, comfortable, and stress-free while treating your pets like part of my family. 🐾❤️ I’m available for house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking. I do work a full-time job, with three days in the office and two days working from home. My schedule is flexible, however, and I’m able to work around most pet care needs and schedules. I’m available full-time Thursday through Sunday, making me especially flexible for weekend stays, walks, and drop-in visits. I’m also happy to coordinate weekday care around my work schedule whenever possible. My goal is to make scheduling easy and convenient while providing reliable, consistent care for your pets. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family and take the time to understand their individual routines, personalities, and needs. When caring for your pets in your home, I respect their familiar environment and do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I want you to feel confident knowing your pets are in caring, responsible hands and are receiving the same love and attention they would receive from you.
“Amazing service!!! She tended to my fur babies with so much love.. Vintage didn’t want to leave her arms, he typically isn’t the affectionate one. I received daily updates and was able to enjoy my getaway with no worries.”
“Luis is perfect, he follows your detailed instructions of how to take care of your dog! And he updates with you often. Smooth and clear communication. Highly recommend!”
“I hate to write this review because they did such a good job that everyone will want to use them. We had a problem with our dog with separation and protection anxiety. We moved back to the US after 9 years living outside the country. We acquired our dogs outside the US. The move and changes were hard on the dogs. Our large dog decided not to accept Josh and Erin into the house and began to overly protect the house to intrudes. They gave her a lot of room and worked around her fear. We were so pleased we had someone that went out of their way to accommodate her anxiety. I believe Josh and Erin can deal with any dogs.”
About: Growing up, animals were always a big part of my life. I’ve had hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets, including dogs, chinchillas, rabbits, turtles, frogs, ducks, and chicks. Being around so many different animals taught me how important it is to be patient, attentive, and understanding of each animal’s unique personality and needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means going on walks, playing, providing meals and fresh water, giving them attention and affection, or simply keeping them company. I understand that every pet has their own routine and comfort level, and I’m happy to follow their specific care instructions. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure you feel confident knowing they’re in good hands while you’re away! I do work full time so this is definitely more of a part time job for me :) but I will work best with you as my schedule allows! Im over the top when it comes to love and caring for animals so I will make sure to meet the necessary standards on making you feel comfortable and safe leaving your animals in my care.
“Dalilah was fantastic! We booked her late notice due to a cancellation, so I was a little anxious since we have 5 pups... She maintained communication throughout the stay and sent pics to ensure we were at ease and could maintain focus while we were away. We highly recommend Dalilah and would use her again!”
About: My personal experience involves the care of my own two dogs and my fosters over the past four years. My fosters have ranged from puppies to senior dogs, big to small! I’ve cared for over 50 dogs until adoption. I currently have a full-time job in education, but I have time during long holiday breaks, summers, and weekends that I would like to dedicate to pet care. I have experience caring for fosters so I can adjust my care depending on the needs of your pet! I have two dogs of my own and currently fostering and older pittie. I understand the responsibility of caring for your precious fur babies and would work to earn your trust in my care.
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.
About: At 14, I had the responsibility of caring for and training a malamute I begged for. She almost became a therapy dog! Safe to say, I dedicated a lot of time and effort into caring and loving her, as well as EVERY dog I’ve cared for since! Friends and family have trusted me for years to watch their dogs while away, ensuring a good walk, play time, and some belly rubbing time! I can also help with behavioral training for puppies and young dogs. Seniors dogs are loved, given oral medication gently, and their energy levels are respected on walks. However, no shots/injections. I hope to meet you and your pup soon! I currently have a free schedule for you and your pet’s needs— whether it’s early morning, midday, or late at night! We can make any time work Prior to any in home service, I do request meeting the animals before services beginning so they can recognize me as a familiar person. This would also give you a chance to show me their food/toys/leashes/meds/etc! I will not enter any private room for my own safety.
About: I have veterinarian experience as well as grooming experience. Would love to further a career in animal training. I have experience with all types animals. Im a stay at home mom who is in need of some animal loving. I have plenty of experience with all types of breeds and plan to further a career in veterinary medicine. I have a large fenced yard and a small family who adores animals. My goal is to make sure your pets get treated as if they were my own

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - New Caney
Alexandria was absolutely amazing!! My dogs loved her the minute she walked in the door. She hung out with them and they were all over her. They wanted to be by her side. She sent photos and they were so relaxed, it made me feel good knowing they were being well cared for. I would recommend her and I’ll use her again!
Jada was wonderful. She communicated consistently to include photos of my sweet Rosie. I attended the gender reveal of my grandbaby during my trip, when I arrived home Jada had left the cutest outfit for her. It was unexpected but so appreciated. I recommend Jada and would absolutely hire her again.
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!

The average cost of House Sitting in New Caney is $54 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $88 per night.

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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
