“We are so grateful to have found Laurie! She took such wonderful care of our dogs while we were away—attentive, thoughtful, and incredibly kind. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such capable hands. Laurie provided great updates, was always communicative, and went above and beyond to make sure our pups were happy and comfortable. We came home to relaxed, content dogs and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter they can truly trust. Thank you, Laurie!”
“Kyra was great! I appreciate her conscientiousness and attention to detail. She provided regular updates, including photos. I knew that our pets and house were in good hands.”
“They did a great job. Sent pictures of pups and periodic updates. Still managed to feed them and visit in middle of emergency. Think pups knew because they were good for a long time.”
“Abby came through for us last minute when our sitter got sick. She did a wonderful job with our shy puppy. Her communication is outstanding and really made or trip worry free. We will definitely use her again!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five stars — highly recommend Nita! Nita did a fantastic job caring for our fur babies, Otis and Oreo. After a horrible first experience with a sitter here in Texas, we were very nervous about trusting someone new. Nita immediately put our worries at ease. Oreo is a senior who requires medication, and Otis is very clingy and needs lots of comfort and companionship. Nita handled both with patience, attentiveness, and genuine care, making sure they were safe, comfortable, and well loved. I would absolutely recommend Nita to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate sitter and will definitely be using her again as our in-home sitter! Kind regards, Eureka”
About: Soy técnico veterinario. He tenido perros y gatos desde niña y me encantan. Tengo experiencia en entrenamiento de obediencia así que su mascota estará en las mejores manos. Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life. I work with dogs professionally during the day and I’m available for pet sitting, walks, and drop-in visits in the afternoons and evenings, as well as additional availability on weekends. I genuinely enjoy spending my free time caring for animals, so pet sitting fits naturally into my routine. I would love to know about your pet’s normal routine, personality, feeding schedule, medications, allergies or medical conditions, and any behavioral concerns. Please also let me know about their favorite activities, fears, triggers, interactions with other animals, and anything else that will help me keep them comfortable, happy, and safe.
“Chanel did great taking care of my fur baby and house. She sent lots of pics and videos. My fur baby had an accident in the house which never happened before and Chanel was a champ having to clean it up. I will hire her again in the future if she is available. Thank you Chanel!”
“Kimari did great with my pets, she was very respectful of my home and patient with my dog who sometimes barks at strangers. I got photo updates daily and came home to a happy dog and cat!”
“Melissa once again and came through with the most amazing dog sitting ever. You were gone for 16 days and knew the entire time our dogs were in the best possible hands. So thankful for her.”
“We have a large crew of large dogs who require extra love and Adam was wonderful with them. They all enjoyed his company and he took such great care of them! He kept in constant contact with us about how they were doing and sent lots of pictures which left my mama heart at ease! Our home was also just as we left it when we got back. We will be using Adam again in the future! Thank you so much!”
“Rachel did a great job home sitting and pet sitting while away for a week long family reunion. She is very trustworthy and went above and beyond staying in touch and taking care of the property. She will definitely be our first choice for our next trip away from home if she is available.”
“House and dog sitting. Olivia is kind and friendly. Pets were loved and cared for. Pictures and updates were provided. Needs some improvement on following instructions and home care.”
“Kayla took wonderful care of our 3 fur babies for 5 days. She was attentive to the one who needed special care and medication. She sent us numerous updates and pictures. We returned home to happy dogs and a clean house. Would highly recommend and will be using her services again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Pantego
Laurie was fantastic. She was so good with the dogs. Gave them all the attention, love and care that you hope for when leaving your babies. She took great care of my house and communicated with me throughout to let me know everything was going well. Plan to use her again and again.
Lacy is the best! She makes your pet feel very special. She treats them like family. She is very professional. Lacy made sure my dog got all her meds correctly. She gave her lots of lovin. Lacy sent me pictures all through the week and let me know how things were going. Your pet is in great care with Lacy. She will continue to be my go to pet sitter.
This was my first experience with using Rover as well as having anyone in my home that wasn’t family that I trusted to take care of my fur baby. Maya was absolutely perfect even from the initial meet & greet I felt very comfortable with her and how Bubba interacted with her then. Even through my concerns or better yet overbearing , Maya was patient, respectful and super understanding that I was new to this. She is such a great sitter and will definitely use her every chance I can get.
Kaelyn Took such great care of my dog while I was away. I truly appreciated her reliability, attentiveness, and the genuine care she showed my dog. It gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in such capable hands. I will gladly recommend Kaelyn to others. I look forward to working with her again in the future.
Lauren was perfect for our Rose. Rose is an elderly Jack Russell who is not in the best of health. She is also a VERY picky eater. Lauren took such excellent care of our girl and indulged her picky ways enough that she did not loose an ounce while we were gone. Moreover, Lauren took excellent care of our indoor and outdoor plants during some very hot, dry conditions. And finally, Lauren was superb at communicating with us about Rose, the plants and the yard. One last thing about Lauren, she’s just super nice. We were so impressed. You will be too if you’re lucky enough to have her care for your 4-legged family and or home.
Zaida provided excellent care for our dogs while we were out of country on vacation for five days. We have a dog who can be fear-reactive to new people, and she took the time to do a drop-in to ensure a positive first meeting before we even booked. We truly appreciated her patience! She was very professional and communicative throughout the entire process. The daily updates and photos were great, and we felt totally at ease. We will definitely book with her again!
Angela was heaven sent. I just recently lost my pug, one week before she was due to take care of both of my babies. Her kindness to my Sheba knowing that she was sad she showed her so much love attention to the point when I got home Sheba was crying for her at door! Angela you’re apart of our pack now Sheba said so lol. She has great heart . Thank you for helping me .
Amber is a wonderful person! She loves our sweet pup as much as we do. She feels like one of the family! She stayed at our home for two weeks and we had no worries. She always leaves things as good as, or better than, when we left. And she is a wonderful communicator in words and pictures.
Reagan was so good with our boy, Ricky Bobby!! Ricky Bobby has a few quirks like most dogs do, but one of his more notable ones is that he tends to anxiety chew on himself when we’re out of the house, and sometimes breaks skin if not stopped. Reagan did a fantastic job watching out for this behavior and kept him calm and content through her time in our home. Reagan was also very communicative throughout the visit and sent multiple pictures and updates of the goings on. Overall, we could tell that Ricky Bobby was very comfortable and happy to be hanging out with his newest bestie Reagan, and we’re glad to have found another trustworthy sitter that loves our dog as much as we do!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Pantego is $39 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $78 per night. 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 4,179 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pantego. 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 Pantego 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 Pantego 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 Pantego 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 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Pantego. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
