“Kaylee is the first sitter we’ve hired on Rover, and she set a high bar. She is thorough, punctual and a great communicator. We felt entirely at ease going on vacation without our pups. We would love to hire Kaylee again.”
“Janee was a perfect pet sitter for our two dogs and gecko. She sent great pictures and videos every day. Timely, thorough and dependable! Dogs were healthy and happy even after this longer than typical trip for us. Would definitely recommend Janee!!”

I like to make sure my clients animal is taken care of as they would be if they were my own. Whichever rules are placed, they will be followed!
“Kaitlyn has house sat for us several times, and she never disappoints. She is professional, reliable, and always takes wonderful care of both our dog and our home. Our dog has health issues that require medication and frequent potty breaks because she’s on a diuretic. Kaitlyn followed all of my instructions carefully, took her out proactively to prevent accidents, and gave her medication as needed. I also tend to leave detailed instructions, including text messages and photos, and I really appreciated that Kaitlyn welcomed all of the information and asked questions whenever she needed clarification. She stayed overnight and was home for most of the day as requested, which is important since I work from home and our dog is used to having someone around. We came home to a happy, content dog and a house that was just as we left it. Kaitlyn is always a pleasure to work with, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend!”
About: Hey everyone. My name is Benjamin. I just graduated from University of Louisiana at Lafayette this past spring with a bachelors degree in Informatics - Interactive Media Technology. I do have a full time job working at Home Furniture Company with an IT Tech team. I am still fairly available after work and on weekends. I have a brand new 2020 Hyundai Veloster Turbo R-Spec, so I am very reliable when it comes to transportation from A->B. I love all animals. I currently have 2 cats, 2 rats, and 1 leopard gecko. My dog is still in NOLA with my parents. His name is Beignet and is 13 years old. He is a Maltese-pomeranian. My favorite dog breeds are German Shepherds, Pitbulls, and border colllies. My favorite fat breeds are siamese and tabbies. I was walking a German Shepherd consistently for over a year and a half until Covid hit. Don't worry, I am vaccinated. Reach out if you think I'd be a good fit! I currently work full time 8am-5pm, but am still fairly free after work. I am usually free on the weekends unless I am out of town visiting family in Nola. I currently have an apartment with my significant other. We try not to have other animals inside since we have 2 cats. But I am always open to going to a client's home to take care of an animal.
About: I’ve always been a devoted animal lover & owner, even as a young child. I am always making time for my 2 dogs, as well as all of my friends & family’s pets. I am a trusted pet sitter and am always the one who is in mind for dog siting as i enjoy giving my time and love to pets - even ones that arent mine💗🐶 I have 2 dogs and help care for my grandparent’s cat. I tend to my animals on a regular basis & take them for adventures whenever possible. I offer in-home pet care tailored to your pet’s individual needs and routine. I would care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, including drop-in visits, short stays, walks, feeding and fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention! I’m comfortable caring for: multiple pets, puppies, senior pets, dogs of any size, etc - just message me if you have questions!! I’m happy to help keep their space clean, safe, and comfortable while you’re away. I can also reinforce basic training and work on teaching new commands and good habits. **My availability:** 🐶 Monday–Thursday: Available before 9:30 AM and after 4 PM 🐶 Friday–Sunday: Available throughout the day. My goal is to make sure your pets feel happy, comfortable, and cared for while giving you peace of mind when you can’t be there. 💕
About: I do not have any special skills. I am just an animal lover. I own an 8 year old lab mix named Sweetie. She has been a part of our family since she was around 8 weeks old. When caring for your beloved pets, I will always treat them like my own, with love, patience, and kindness. I currently am a teacher. I can do drop-ins during the week and weekends, in-home sitting, and boarding on the weekends I do not have a fenced in back yard, so your dogs will be taken out on a leash if boarded here. I am new to pet sitting, so this part will be updated as I sit more. My dog is currently 8 years old. She sees the vet once per year unless more visits are necessary. I take her outside for regular exercise. I believe that dogs should be taken out on leashes for safety.
“Ethan did an awesome job taking care of my dogs and my house while I was away! He kept me updated, sent pictures of the dogs, and made being away so much easier knowing they were in good hands. I came home to happy dogs and everything in great shape. Would definitely recommend Ethan and will absolutely use him again!”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give to every pet. Having grown up around animals and cared for pets for family and friends, I’m comfortable handling different personalities, routines, and needs. I understand that every animal is unique, so I take the time to learn what makes them feel happiest and most comfortable. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. Whether that means sticking to a specific schedule, providing extra playtime, or simply offering companionship, I always strive to create a positive experience for both pets and their owners. As a recent high school graduate, I currently have a flexible schedule and plenty of free time to dedicate to pet care. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I’m able to give pets the attention, companionship, and care they deserve throughout the day. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I can easily fit pet care into my daily routine and make your pet’s well-being a priority. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure while their owner is away. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection. I also keep the home clean and tidy, follow any specific care instructions, and provide updates so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Meri was very responsible and caring. She took great care of Bubba and Panda. The dogs were happy and well fed. My home was immaculate when I returned. I would be happy to use her again.”
“ABSOLUTELY FIVE STARS!!! Will be using her everytime!!! She kept our dogs at our air bnb for the day so we didn’t have to worry about them needing to go to the bathroom or getting anxious in a new setting. Sally absolutely rocked it with our great dane and pitbull Mix! Out great dane weighs 163lbs and our pitty weighs 55lb so she could definitely handle her own!!!”
About: I've been a dog and cat mother for most of my life. I've cared for other animals for sometimes weeks at a time with no injuries! You can trust me with your most loved family members and with your home if needed. I can be available as needed by your pet. I am not currently working. I am happy to drive up to 60 miles each way. I would appreciate an additional gas allowance. If I keep your animal in my home, you should know that I have a Rottweiler. She is very friendly and loves other animals, but she's never been exposed to an aggressive animal. I have a cat who does not like other animals, but I will have no problems keeping her separate from your animal. I have a fenced in backyard and I enjoy walking over 10,000 steps a day so your animal has options for exercise with me.
“Krystl did an amazing job watching over our two boys while we went out of town for a few day. Both the boys loved her. I would HIGHLY recommend her again many more times in the future. Thank you so much Krystl for watching over and taking great care of both my boys. 🥰❤️”

FAQs for House Sitting - Pecan Ridge
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 351 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pecan Ridge. 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 Pecan Ridge 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 Pecan Ridge 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 Pecan Ridge 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.
