About: If you’re looking for a dependable, experienced, and loving pet sitter, you’ve come to the right place! Caring for animals isn’t just something I enjoy—it’s something I’m passionate about. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I offer personalized care based on your pet’s personality, routine, and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, energetic playtime, relaxing cuddle sessions, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll provide plenty of one-on-one attention to help them feel right at home. My services include: • Dog walking and exercise • Pet sitting and companionship • Drop-in visits • Feeding and fresh water • Medication administration (oral and topical) • Baths and light grooming • Puppy care and senior dog care • Plenty of love, belly rubs, and positive attention I understand that every pet is unique, so I’ll follow your instructions carefully to maintain their routine and reduce stress while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities. As a responsible, trustworthy, and reliable caregiver, I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet and become someone you can count on whenever you need dependable, loving care! I am currently a college student with a part-time job that usually takes up only four hours out of my day. The rest of the time I am home, studying or out on walks and runs. I would love to have company when I do go for my strolls. We have a fenced in yard that as well separate small dogs and large dogs. As well, a play area for the pets to socialize if granted. Treats are given to pets for their cuteness, unless dietary restrictions.
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and love caring for them like they’re my babies. I also help watch my family and friends' pets when they’re out of town, so I’m used to giving animals lots of love and attention. You can trust that your pet will be safe, happy, and treated like family with me. I’m attending the university of the rio grande valley. However, I only attend on certain days and right now it’s summer so i’m free. I will make time. I will do my best to clean any mess the pets make and I am reliable to give them food and water and take on walks daily.
About: I’ve loved and owned dogs since I was a little girl. Sometimes I think we don’t deserve them 🥹 I have no special skills other than a huge heart for animals 🐾🩷 I am retired and I am available every day except for every other weekend I am out of town. I have my own transportation and I am very responsible. I have a fenced yard and a nice big backyard. I own a 3 year old Labrador mix who loves everybody 🙂 and loves to play.
“Meagan was GREAT! She took excellent care of my special needs dogs and kept me updated on how they were doing throughout my trip. She even brought something to my notice that she and I hadn’t specifically discussed. She washed the towels and sheets before she left and even took out the trash and recycling for me. SUCH a good sitter! Will definitely rebook.”
“Lyann was an amazing dog sitter at my home. She was very caring for all 3 of our dogs and always kept me informed of how they we're doing. We will definitely be using her services again. ??”
About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and know how much our pets mean to us—they’re family. I currently have four Dalmatians of my own, so I’m very comfortable with active, energetic dogs, but I’ve also had smaller dogs who lived long lives with me. I especially enjoy spending time with puppies, senior dogs, and pets who need a little extra patience and attention. What sets me apart is the way I care for each pet as an individual. I’m patient, attentive, reliable, and active, and I take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, and what makes them comfortable. Whether your dog needs a good walk and playtime, a senior pet needs a slower pace and extra attention, or your cat simply wants some quiet companionship, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I know it can be stressful leaving your pets with someone new, so my goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and daycare in your pet’s home environment, so they can stay comfortable in a familiar place while getting the attention and care they deserve. Pet care is something I’d love to make a regular part of my weekly routine. I’m looking for consistent opportunities to care for pets and build long-term relationships with both pets and their owners. I’m dependable and able to plan my schedule around my clients’ needs. I’m available for house sitting, drop-in visits, dog walking, and daycare in the pet’s home, and I’m happy to work with owners who need recurring or ongoing care. My goal is to provide consistent, dependable care so your pet can become familiar and comfortable with me. I value building trust over time and becoming someone you feel confident relying on for your pet’s care. I am also available nights and weekends for now. When caring for your pets in your home, my priority is keeping them safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. I’ll follow your instructions closely regarding feeding, walks, medications, potty breaks, playtime, and any special needs your pet may have. I’m attentive to doors, gates, leashes, and anything else that could affect your pet’s safety. I also take the time to get to know your pet’s personality and comfort level rather than assuming every pet needs the same type of care. I understand that I’m also being trusted with your home, so I’ll treat it with the same respect and care I would want someone to show my own home. I’ll keep things clean, secure, and in the condition I found them. Most importantly, I want you to feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing and can have peace of mind knowing they’re being well cared for.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - North Alamo
Natalia was absolutely amazing with my 12-year-old pup, Phoenix 🐾—who is definitely a picky, demanding little diva 😄. She handled her meds, nighttime wake-ups, and constant need for affection like a total pro. I got great updates and could tell Phoenix was genuinely comfortable and cared for during her overnight stay. It’s not easy trusting someone with a high-maintenance senior dog, but Natalia made it feel effortless. Will 100% be booking with her again—highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The average cost of House Sitting in North Alamo is $43 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $43 and $43 per night.

As of October 2026, there are 140 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across North Alamo. 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 North Alamo 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 North Alamo 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 North Alamo 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.
