“5 stars is not enough for the love and care Sierra gave our dogs and our home. She kept us updated daily and we came home to happy dogs and a spotless house. We will definitely be using her again!”
About: Hi, I’m Abigail! I’ve spent my whole life around dogs and understand that every one has its own personality and needs. I take pride in providing a safe, loving environment where pets feel relaxed and cared for. I know leaving your furry family member behind can be stressful, so I make sure to keep owners updated and reassured every step of the way. I'm a people person and love talking ! Do not feel shy to tell me what ur expectations are. I look forward to meeting your pet and making their time with me fun, comfortable, and full of attention. I have plenty of free time right now considering this is my full time job. I will be able to give your pet lots of attention, play, and care while you’re away. I care for dogs as I would for humans, because they deserve respect and gentle treatment. I have a friendly dog, and I understand that not all dogs get along. If needed, I will separate dogs in my care to keep everyone safe. I can handle rough dogs but not if they viciously attack humans, so I ask that owners are honest and know their dog’s temperament. If dogs are not in an enclosed area I will keep on leash at all times !
About: Hello! I am a dog mom to 1 dog. He's around 12 years old. I've been dog sitting for about 5 years now. I have dog sat for friends and family in the past. I've met a few clients on here who became regulars. I am willing to visit your home and help take care of your fur babies while your away. I can help feed, take to the bathroom, clean up, play, and cuddle. Thank you for your interest in my dog sitting services. Hope to hear from you soon! I work full time. I will only be available on certain days or throughout the weekend. Willing to negotiate other days if needed. Thanks. :) My 3 dogs are loved and spoiled. I can take care of your pets however you would like. Dropping in to say hello, check their food/water, cuddles, and of course potty breaks!
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and take care of my own dog who needs medication, so I’m used to sticking to routines and paying attention to the little things. I’ve also pet sat for friends before, so I’m comfortable with different dogs and their personalities. I always make sure they get walks, playtime, and feel cared for like they’re my own. I’m pretty flexible with my schedule, especially during mornings, afternoons, and evenings, so I can usually make time to stop by or stay with pets when needed. At a client’s home, I make sure to stick closely to your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and not stressed while you’re away. I follow all instructions exactly like feeding times, walks, playtime, and any medication schedules.I also spend time actually being with them, not just checking in, so they get attention and don’t feel lonely. I keep things clean and respect your space, making sure everything is left just how you had it. Most importantly, I try to make your pet feel safe, relaxed, and cared for in their own home.
“Lizzy was a great sitter that I will definitely book again. The dogs warmed up to her extremely quickly during the meet and greet. She was punctual, communicative and responsible!”
“Julie was attentive with our doodles & gave updates on them during her stay at our home & administered meds as directed. Prior to booking, she told us she would be with our dogs all day Saturday & not take any other bookings while dog sitting for us, however she did leave our dogs on Saturday to care for another dog in another town. We were not informed until after the fact.”
“Jenn was absolutely amazing!! We have finally found someone trustworthy to take care of our house and dog. Our vacation was so stress free! Odin was so happy with her here. She did what she said she was going to do and was on time. She took care of our home and even let me know that our shade for our garden was knocked down. She just was absolutely amazing! Cannot wait to book with her again!”
“Angel was great with our dog. She listened to what we needed. Our dog typically doesn't get along with other dogs and she truly went above and beyond to make sure that our dog was comfortable. It was a much longer time for our dog to be watched by someone else and we really trust Angel definitely will be booking her again. Very responsive. Very respectful highly recommend.”
“Lainey was absolutely fantastic during our 10-day trip. She stayed in our home and took exceptional care of our dogs - we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She sent regular updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Her communication was excellent throughout the entire stay. When we returned, our dogs were happy and relaxed, and our home was spotless. It’s clear Lainey treats both pets and homes with great care and respect. We would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and attentive sitter.”
“Nici was great!!! She took pictures and sent them to me so I got to see my little Connie every day. She also followed all my instructions well. It was a pleasure to work with Nici !!!”
About: I have had dogs since I was young. I always helped friends and family with their pets for many years of my life so I am familiar with caring for them. I am mostly flexible Monday through Friday. On weekends I am usually pretty open on Saturdays and on Sundays I attend church from 9:30am to 11am so pickup/ drop off would have to be either before or after those times for Sunday. I have a fenced yard. I will also have one extra crate (if I am not already using it for another clients fur baby) if you want your dog to be in a crate while in my care. If you do not want your fur baby in a crate then that is also acceptable.

FAQs for House Sitting - Odessa
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Odessa on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 62 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Odessa. 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 Odessa 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 Odessa 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 Odessa 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 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.
