About: I'm very loving when it comes to dogs .I tend to treat them like my own child with full responsibilities .I only have one Yorkie .I cared for him throughout the years not only as a dog but I make him part of my family. I travel with him everywhere I go, to hiking ,parks and even to special events.It makes him happy and I enjoy it. Dogs mean everything to me that's why I love learning about them ,I have done research about dogs to get the full background to their situation weather if their uncomfortable or happy.One of my favorite activities is to walk ,I'm very active and energetic when it comes to it .I would love to join this path of a long journey with my dog and yours. I’m available throughout the weekdays and have a flexible schedule to have all the time by taking care of your pet from morning to night I’ll supervise your pet by checking on them frequently making sure they are well provided for and make a playful area for them to engage in
“Laura watched our dog at our home while we were away for a few days. She did an excellent job with our dog and treated our home with respect. We will definitely reach out in the future when we can't bring our pup on trips! Highly recommend Laura”
“Evgenii was amazing! Our older two dogs were well cared for. We received pics and updates which made us happy! Our house was spotless when we returned! Couldn’t have chosen a better dog sitter. Highly recommend him and will be using him again!”
“Jennifer was amazing at taking care of our babies and home while we left town for a week to visit family! They usually take awhile to warm up to people but they seemed to adjust fine and happily with her company which made me feel so relieved!! I was so happy with all of the pictures and updates since it was our first time leaving them for such a long trip, we would definitely love to have her come back and visit Charlie & Henry again :)”
“shanette gets 5 big stars for her on time and attentive care for my dog. she is also very patient with my young dog who has lots of energy. I would use Shanette anytime she’s available.”
“Calli was great and did everything as instructed, she was our first experience with Rover and did great with our two dogs and cat. It was great to enjoy vacation without worrying about our pets with Calli there watching them.”
“Hadija was very kind and patient with my pets who are very accustomed to “mommy” and on a pretty strict schedule. I appreciated the photos and regular updates as well. Thank you!”
“Tessa was a fantastic sitter. She treated the house with respect, provided helpful updates, and asked great questions regarding our dog's care. Thank you, Lucy is looking forward to the next stay!”
“Lisa Marie was so amazing. From start to finish, she was attentive and clearly shows a love for dogs. Our puppy Willow can be a handful, but Lisa Marie took it all in stride and did a great job. From hourly pictures and videos to occasional check ins, we were so happy to have found Lisa Marie .. 10000/10.. Will use again!!!!”
“Boryana took amazing care of our senior pitbull, Brady. She was very patient with his quirks and eccentricities (e.g. he has acquired a habit of lying down for rests mid-walk). He often seems a little out of sorts after we come back from a long trip, but this time he was very relaxed and happy. Communication was top notch and our house was left in perfect condition. We can't recommend Boryana highly enough, and hope she'll be available to take care of Brady again in the future!”
“Allison was AMAZING with both our boys, Milo and Tyson. She kept us updated throughout the day with pictures and went above and beyond by cleaning up the house before she left. Left us a great hand written note recapping her stay with them which was a nice touch as well. We highly recommend using her to watch your pets! Thanks again!!!”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lovers with a deep passion of caring for pets of all kinds. Growing up surrounded by cats, dogs, and plenty of other furry (and not-so-furry) friends taught me how much love and care they deserve. My top priority is always making sure your pets are happy, healthy, and feeling loved. From feeding routines and walks to cuddle time (or just calm company for the more independent types), I make sure each pet feels comfortable and cared for according to their unique personality. I love keeping pets engaged with fun, stimulating activities. For cats, that might mean interactive toys, puzzle feeders, or laser play. For dogs, it’s usually games of fetch, tug-of-war, or a good old-fashioned frisbee toss. Even reptiles get the same thoughtful attention (maybe less cuddling, but plenty of care and respect!). Every pet deserves the best care possible, and that’s what I promise to provide. Whether you’re going away for a day or a week, I will treat your furry family member as if they were our own. I’d love to meet your pets and help you feel at ease while you’re away!
“Celestine was reliable, communicative, and kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the stay, which gave me great peace of mind! I came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat and a tidy apartment. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!!”
“Angelina was super reliable! I’m a nervous dog mom, so it was nice to know that Yoko was in good hands. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our girl. We’ll definitely be booking her again soon.”
“I cannot say enough great things about Paige. She was extremely kind and caring toward our pups and took great care of them for the weekend we were away. She also was super communicative and gave us consistent updates about how our dogs were doing and how their days went, complete with picture updates as well. Which I really appreciate. She is an amazing pet/house sitter and if she is available, book her IMMEDIATELY! We will 1000% be booking Paige again!”
About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life and have experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets. I’ve also volunteered at an animal shelter, where I cared for a variety of dogs and cats with different personalities and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and love getting to know each pet and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for! I’m primarily available Thursday through Sunday, with a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to each pet. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and companionship throughout the day, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine. When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping them comfortable and maintaining their normal routine. I follow each pet parent’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medication, and any special care needs. I also make sure their environment stays safe and secure while giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Parlin
Rwitika was amazing!!! We have loads of experience as a certified Rover sitter. She checks all the boxes, and our pups were so comfortable. Our Maltese got to play with her gentle pug (Pinecone), and he got lots of energy out. Great communication and updates - we had a vacation with zero stress!! Thank you again!!
Kelly was absolutely excellent. We had her stay overnight with our cats, including one who had recently had a medical emergency, for four days. She was diligent in providing updates, sending photos, and making sure our kitties felt loved. We will absolutely be using her again.
Julia was an incredible sitter for Polo over Christmas week. From the moment we booked, she was communicative and thoughtful, excited to spend time with him. Throughout the stay, she sent regular updates and photos. Polo can be a sensitive little guy, but he warmed up to her and Julia kept his routine consistent, gave him tons of attention, and made sure he got plenty of playtime and snuggles. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring hands during the holidays. I would recommend Julia without hesitation and will absolutely book with her again!
Amazing sitter!! My dog is on medications and it's always so nerve-wracking for me every time I have to leave him. Well, not with Megan on board! She's incredibly attentive, and she carefully and expertly handled every aspect of his care. I was beyond impressed! Not only that, but her connection with and love for animals is truly remarkable. I've never seen my dog so relaxed with anyone! My dog was smitten with her within minutes of arrival, and you know that dogs just know when they've found an excellent human! Megan is very sweet and very kind to both humans and animals, and is 1000% trustworthy with both the care of your furbaby AND with having her in your home. Absolutely amazing sitter. Highly recommended without hesitation!
I highly recommend Rafaela. She’s very careful, friendly, responsible, and on time. We even booked a couple of training sessions since my dog isn’t crate or potty trained yet. She was great with our pet, we are very excited! Her prices are also very reasonable.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Parlin on Rover is $42.18 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 14,940 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Parlin. 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 Parlin 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 Parlin 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 Parlin 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 with handling special pet needs in Parlin. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
