“Nicolle was an amazing sitter for our best good girls!! 🐶😸Very communicative, and great at making our pets feel comfortable and happy. We were very lucky to have her while on vacation and would hire Nicolle again!”

“Delaney is amazing! She is so personable and cared for our house and Dog like she was part of our family. She is mature, aware, and I would trust her with our beautiful pup at any time. Cannot wait to book her again and glad to have her part of our circle. Thank you, Delaney.”
“Jess is amazing! From coaxing our picky geriatric cat to eat to dealing with a high energy dog to administering insulin to a newly diabetic cat she provides peace of mind your furry family is well taken care of when you are away from home.”
“Arturo was great with our dogs! They both get medicine and one of them had a strict schedule to stick to. Arturo was extremely accommodating and made sure to give them the meds when needed. He’s communicative and this was a great experience!! Would absolutely recommend Arturo!!”
“Jessica is just amazing!!! She is incredibly knowledgeable and responsible. She has by far been our best pet sitter and WILL continue to use her for future trips. She is a vet tech so she has a lot of experience with animals and has knowledge of animals with special needs. She stayed as long as we asked and kept us in the loop on how the pups were doing. I am so happy I found Rover and found Jessica. ”
“Had a same day request and Kenna was there in a pinch! Total lifesaver... She was excellent with my dog and super super polite. 10 out of 10 will totally book with again!”
“Ripley did great watching our 3 energetic dogs! She sent lots of cute pics and updates, and left our house just the way we left it. I can tell our pups had a great time with her and that they were well taken care of!”
About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and hamsters. I have always been an animal lover! I would love to take care of your pets-for the day or even for weeks while you are away. I will care for your pets in the comfort of their home and can give oral medication if needed. I look forward to helping take care of your pets soon! I currently only teach Pilates 2 hours a week so I have plenty of time in my weekly schedule for pet care. I am available 7 days a week. I can take care of any needs you have for your pet in your home- food, water, oral medications, playing the backyard, cleaning litter boxes. I can also take your dog(s) on a walk.
About: Hi! I’m Xarissa Alexsondra (legal name Corissa)—please call me Alexsondra. I specialize in cats and also welcome calm, low-energy dogs who only need short potty walks, plus small pets like snakes or fish. I’m available for long-term stays of three weeks or longer only (shorter gigs aren’t a fit). As a person on the autistic spectrum, I feel most at ease with cats and quiet, predictable pets. I’m naturally attuned to body language and individual quirks, and I stay calm and consistent with the routines many cats and introverted dogs prefer. I may seem a bit reserved with new people at first—please be patient. Your pets will get my full, focused attention. I grew up with multiple dogs and cats and have experience with fish, snakes, lizards, hermit crabs, chickens, quail, and ducks. I’m comfortable with cage cleaning, daily feline and canine routines, and the small details that keep animals comfortable. You’ll receive detailed updates and photos so you’ll always know how your pets are doing. I’m reliable, observant, and happiest in the company of cats, calm dogs, and the occasional snake. I’m a homebody with a part-time job that takes me out of the house for 5–8 hours on just one or two days a week. The rest of the week I’m home all day with the cats, or I may step out for a short excursion and then return for the remainder of the day. This rhythm lets me provide calm, consistent care and stick to the quiet routines most cats prefer. I only accept long-term stays of three weeks or longer. I understand the trust it takes to leave your home and pets with someone else, and I take that responsibility seriously. You’ll receive detailed photo updates so you always know how everyone is doing. I care for cats in the client’s home only (I do not board pets in my own space). One of the strengths of being autistic is that I follow clear, straightforward instructions with high precision and consistency. Tell me exactly how you want feeding, litter, medication, play, and any other routines handled, and I will stick to them closely. I’m naturally attuned to feline body language and stay calm and steady, which many cats prefer. I’m reliable, respectful of your home, and focused on keeping your cats comfortable and secure.
“Alexis was great. Great communication before and during our travels. The dogs were well loved, the house was just as we left it and she kept us in the loop for the whole time we were gone. Will definitely book with her again in the future.”
“Carolina took amazing care of our senior dog, Reggie! She provided multiple updates and made sure Reggie was taken care of when we were out of town for 2 days and 1 night. Would highly reccomend Carolina to anyone and we will be hiring her for any future needs. Thank you, Carolina!!”
“I’m so excited to have found Briana on my first attempt at booking Rover since moving here! I had zero worries or concerns while gone, which was such a relief. She sent consistent photos of our dogs and cat and was easy to reach. I will continue having her watch our animals! 🥰”
“Tanzi watched both of our dogs, and our 2 rabbits over the New Year’s holiday. Tanzi had excellent communication, left our home in great condition and even ran a load of laundry for us. We are grateful we found such an awesome pet sitter to look after our little homestead while we are gone.”
“Emma was great! It was our first time having someone stay at our house to take care of our dog and she made us feel comfortable. Our dog is pretty anxious and gets scared easily but we could tell she had a good time with Emma! We will definitely book with her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Pflugerville
We had such a wonderful experience with Melissa! It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such good hands while we were away. They were happy, loved, and well cared for. Thank you, Melissa, for treating our pups like your own. We really appreciate everything you did for them and would absolutely recommend you to anyone looking for a great dog sitter!
I am so happy I found McKenna to watch our dogs. I could tell moments after meeting her that she was someone I can trust and who is totally reliable. Our dogs are literally our children and normally I have so much anxiety when I go on a trip leaving our babies behind, but I felt no anxiety this time because McKenna does what she says and made sure my babies were okay every single day.
Victoria took care of Lily while we were away in Toronto and did an amazing job. She kept up with Lily's routine closely, and sent us regular updates and photos so we always knew Lily was safe and happy. This is the third time she's cared for Lily and she keeps proving why she's our go to sitter. Highly recommend.
I really enjoyed having Brittany as a house sitter. She had a wonderful rapport with my dog, and did a great job following instructions and providing feedback. We were in regular communication the entire time I was out of town. I would definitely rebook with Brittany the next time I go on vacation!
This is our second time booking with Kevin and Nhu. This time around it was a two week stay and we couldn't be more pleased with their services. They were extremely communicative and responsive. And took excellent care of our Boxer and home. We will definitely be using them again if we have the opportunity!!
Chantell was amazing. Our two boys love her. She consistently updated us on how things were at home and with Oak and WInnie, as well as took amazing photos and videos on a multi-times a day basis. We always looked forward to seeing how they were and got lots of pictures of them playing and cuddling and relaxing. Chantell communicated thoroughly about her schedule so we never worried about a thing and our house was left in spotless condition.We know they received the best possible care and I cannot recommend Chantell highly enough.
Elisa did a wonderful job watching our 2 dogs who can take some time to warm up to strangers. She was very kind and patient with them. She kept our house organized and communicated well with us so we felt confident with her care while we were out of town. Will definitely have Elisa again!
Leah & Tyler were awesome with both our puppy and house. When we got home, our Sophie was happier than she has ever been with others staying at house. They truly engaged with our pup and showed her so much love. Our dog has separation anxiety, and I can't think of any better people to stay with her. We are so happy to have found the right folks for our Sophie!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Pflugerville is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $63 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 October 2026, there are 4,429 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pflugerville. 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 Pflugerville 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 Pflugerville 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 Pflugerville 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
