“Kylie was wonderful! She was very kind, attentive, and responsible. She followed all of our instructions, was always on time, and sent us photos and updates. We could see how well she took care of our cat and how comfortable Charlotte was with her. We’re really happy we found Kylie and would definitely book her again! ❤️”
“Crystal was very nice and very patient with me! I was having separation anxiety from my cat. She is very important to me. Crystal assured me that she would be okay and she updated me with pictures and a video which I'm grateful for! My cat had plenty of room to roam and Crystal was nice and patient with my cat also! I work a lot and I will definitely be booking with Crystal again. Also, she is very professional and the environment was clean, which is a thumbs up! 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿”
“Another amazing time 😭 so so happy I found Kaitlyn -- I had a last minute change in flight and needed Kaitlyn to come over another day on top of what we agreed upon and she was going out of her way to be so kind and came over to care for the kittens 😭”
About: I have years of experience working with animals through veterinary clinics, animal rescue, and caring for reptiles and other exotic pets! I’m comfortable giving medications, caring for diabetic pets, and providing extra attention to senior dogs. I also offer nail trims, red light laser therapy, and potty breaks every 3 hours. For pups who get a little nervous, I have ThunderShirts available to help them feel more comfortable! Dogs are welcome on the bed and furniture if that’s what they’re used to at home! I always respect your household rules and do my best to keep their routine the same while you’re away. I know every pet is different, and I love getting to know their personalities and routines. My goal is to make them feel safe, happy, and right at home while you’re away! 🐾❤️ I stay at home, so I have plenty of time to give pets the attention and care they need throughout the day! I’m also naturally up multiple times during the night, which allows me to check on pets regularly and provide extra care or potty breaks when needed. My flexible schedule allows me to stick to each pet’s routine and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for during their stay! 🐾❤️ I treat every pet in my care just like one of my own! Their safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I provide a clean, secure, and welcoming environment where pets can feel relaxed and at home. I follow each pet’s normal routine, respect their individual needs, and make sure they receive plenty of attention and affection. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I want you to feel confident knowing your pets are safe, loved, and well cared for! 🐾❤️
“Yen was attentive and so good to our young kitties when we were away on a 2.5 weeks trip. She had great communication and sent plenty of pictures with her daily cards. She also went above and beyond to help with periodically plant watering and taking in the mails. Max and Millie had lots of attention and play time. We highly recommend Yen!”
About: I currently have two small cocker spaniels, and my sister has three dogs—a cocker spaniel, a small poodle, and a lab/pit mix—that I help care for pretty often. I’ve also helped watch dogs for friends and people in my circle over the years, so I’m comfortable with different personalities, sizes, and routines. Even some packs that needed to be separated for being sensitive to certain stressors at specific times. I worked at a dog bakery where dogs were constantly coming in and out, which gave me a lot of experience interacting with different breeds and temperaments. Being around so many dogs helped me learn how to read their behavior and make sure they feel comfortable and safe. I currently have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to take care of your pets and give them the attention they deserve. I’m also on a fitness journey, so walks and runs are definitely something I enjoy and can include for dogs that need the extra exercise. Your pet’s safety and comfort are really important to me. I try to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel relaxed while you’re away. That means sticking to their usual feeding times, walks, playtime, and any instructions you leave for me I pay attention to their behavior and how they’re feeling so I can notice if anything seems off. I’m also patient with shy or nervous pets and let them warm up at their own pace. When I’m in a client’s home, I’m respectful of the space and make sure pets stay safe by keeping doors and gates secure and their environment calm and clean. My goal is for your pet to feel comfortable and cared for while giving you peace of mind that they’re in good hands.
“I had a great seamless experience with Cecilia. She was reliable, punctual and took great care of my cat while I was gone. I definitely plan to use her again and recommend her to friends.”
“This was our first time using the Rover sitter service, and we couldn’t be happier! From start to finish, Emily & Carlos provided exceptional care for our two cats. Here are the highlights: Prompt Service: They were punctual and reliable. They arrived exactly when they said they would, which put our minds at ease. Kind and Caring: Not only did they take care of our cats’ basic needs, but they also showered them with love and attention. Our cats seemed genuinely happy during their visits. Quality Time: The cat sitter spent quality time with our fur babies. Whether it was playing with toys, brushing their fur, or simply sitting quietly with them, they made sure our cats felt comfortable and content. Overall, we highly recommend this cat sitter service. Their professionalism, kindness, and genuine love for animals set them apart. We’ll definitely be using their services again!”
“Julie is the best cat sitter I could ask for. She’s always there for me—even when I need to book something very last minute or unexpected. She is very detail oriented and punctual, and never fails me!!”
About: I’ve been a caregiver to dogs since I was 10 years old helping my mother who brought in dogs for her rescue. I’m very passionate about caring for dogs at all stages of life from puppies to crossing over the rainbow bridge. Your pets will get double the affection! My 16-year-old daughter, a total animal lover, occasionally stays with me during house sitting when approved by the owner. If you prefer a solo sitter, I am completely happy to accommodate that as well. I am a stay at home mom to a teenager and our sweet dog, Lilly Rose. I do not work so my days and nights would be completely devoted to the pets I’m caring for. For in my home care I have a large fenced in yard for your dogs to play in the backyard as well as a small dog to keep them company. She is fixed and kennel trained. Caring for your dog in your home safety wise is easy because I will respect your rules. My number one job is keeping your pet safe.
About: I’ve been caring for various pets since I was a child. I’ve watched over dogs with special needs as well as potty training puppies. I also have watched over and love cats. I bring energy to every visit, making sure your babies feel loved and looked after. I’m free all weekends, so I can spend as much time as you’d prefer watching over your babies. During the week, I work full time, so I’m still available, but much less so. Instead of all day, it would be morning, dinner time, and right before bed. The same is true for giving walks— free every day of the week for morning, evening, and night, and free all day on weekends. I will follow your instructions to a T to make sure your pets are safe and sound. I will watch over them when I am there, and I will do a scan when I arrive and leave to make sure there’s nothing amiss that could hurt them. If something happens or they become unwell, I will contact you immediately, and I know the local animal emergency locations unless you have another one specified.
“Samantha took excellent care of my kitty cat. Even the stray cat that I asked her to feed was taken care of. My cat was happy when I got home and the kitchen was also clean. (I asked her to rinse the cans of cat food after they were done.)”
“Natalie was so great with Storm. She kept me informed and was flexible with me changing my times last minute. I truly felt like Storm was in great hands while I was away. Thank you so much!”
“James was awesome with drop ins for my pup. He was very detail oriented and specifically asked about the dos and do nots for my pup. Also provided me with updates and pictures while I was away.”
About: I've taken care of pets since I can remember. I am meticulous about maintaining spotless litter boxes, keeping feeding stations sanitary, and strictly following your exact schedule to keep your cat completely stress free while you are away. I have a highly flexible daytime schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to your pets. While my evenings are reserved for other commitments, I am completely open throughout the mornings and afternoons for walks, drop ins, and daytime companionship. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize safety, security, and their normal routine. I am meticulous about locking doors, double checking gates, and keeping any hazardous household items out of reach. On walks, I always keep dogs securely leashed and stay highly aware of my surroundings. I treat your home with the utmost respect, leaving it exactly as I found it, while ensuring your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own familiar environment.
“She's my first cat-sitter and has been friendly and communicative throughout the process. She followed the instructions well and made sure my cat takes his medicine every day. No problems from my cat and no complaints from Emily as she takes pictures every day to show my cat's hospitable cooperation with her.”
“Tia was great! Great communication and felt extremely comfortable leaving our cat with Tia. She sent many updates while we were away. 100% would recommend and use again.”
About: Other than loving others animals as my own, l've had experience with many types of breeds, temperaments, ages, and personalities. Having experience with two German Shepards in my life, they have taught me the importance of training and regime. As a care taker I will always do my best to ensure that their schedules are well maintained. Whether it is a walk, going potty, 30-1hr of playing and enrichment, eating, receiving medicine, etc. I will do my best to ensure your fluffy friends feel safe and comfortable in their environment. Throughout the week I am typically available 9am-3pm (M,Tues,Thurs) weekends depending on work trips I am available 10am-8:30pm (Fri,Sat). I am also married so if we are boarding, my husband will be home as a helping hand! I have a fully fended and fairly big yard, plenty of room for a crate if needed, and willing to provide any extra accommodations for boarding. If I am visiting your home, I will respect your home as mind and be mindful to go above and beyond to meet your expectations whether I am caring for your dogs, cats, fish, birds, etc!

Atara was a 10/10 sitter! She was very flexible with our last minute request. She asked all the right questions before caring for our senior dog who requires a little extra love. She updated us throughout the time we were gone. Will use her again! And highly recommend (:

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in North Houston is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 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 807 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across North Houston. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.

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.
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.
