“Amalia was with my cat/dog for over a week inside my home and I never had any doubts they were cared for!! 💕 I received frequent updates every day with pictures! My dog is extremely anxious and can be difficult to feed and she was patient and even got him to eat! I will definitely be reaching out in the future for any more sitting needs! 💕 more vacations here I come! Thanks again I really appreciate you!”
“This is our 2nd time to have Jill here and she was just wonderful again!! She stayed at our house to take care of our dog and cat for 3 1/2 days. She continued to send pictures, communicate with us, and update us whet she was leaving for the end of the stay. She left such a detailed message upon leaving and made sure to see if we needed anything else first. She even took the cover off the bed and put it in the washer for me to do when we got home. Once again, highly highly recommend having Jill take care of your babies! (She was even wonderful with our human kids :)”
About: I've taken care of both dogs and cats and have owned both! Pet sitting isn't just a job for me, it brings me joy! I've been around animals all my life and I am also bilingual! I work part time only 8am to 1pm so I am fully available after that! On Saturdays I work 9-3! I'd love to fit in pet care anywhere after! I care for my 2 cats with constant love, attention, play time and stimulation! They are very well loved! I have also taken care of my family dog for almost my entire life! No matter what age or breed I am %100 capable!
“Zarina was wonderful. She made sure Rambo was fed and cared for while I was out of town. She was thoughtful and did extra things for him and for my home that I hadn’t even asked. Would def recommend. ❤️🙏”
“I would highly, highly recommend Kristie! She did such an amazing job with our dog Josie, who had just lost her sister a few days before we went away. Kristie made sure that Josie was comforted and had all the extra love and care so she didn't feel lonely. We also received daily pictures and updates so we knew Josie was well taken care of. Having lost a dog before we left, we were uneasy about leaving Josie behind. But Kristie made us feel 100% like Josie was in the best hands and we knew she genuinely cared for her like she was her own. That was very meaningful to us. And, when we returned home, Kristie left a very thoughtful gift for us, which was a plant in memory of the dog we had just lost. I can't say how much that meant to us. Again, highly, highly recommend Kristie!”
“Karina was great!!! She dog/house sat for 5 nights. I could tell she paid attention to all the notes I left her (which was a crazy amount lol) and kept the dogs in their normal routine. It’s been such a relief to find someone we trust to stay at our home with our doggies while we’re away. Highly recommend! 💕”
About: I currently have 2 dogs - Morkies (Yorkies and Maltese mix). Pets have always been a part of my life. Family and friends tell me that I treat my dogs like they are people; I say that I just love them and they love me. You can be sure that I would love and care for your pets just as much. Please don't leave them home alone. Contact me and enjoy your time away from home - your pets will be in great hands with attentive care. My schedule is flexible which allows me the opportunity to be home during the day, and all nights. Please, no aggressive dogs. I will make sure that your dogs are comfortable and safe with me. I have an 8' fenced back yard, with security cameras. I enjoy being outside with your furbabies and will provide that extra level of security when they are running around in the backyard. I have hard floors for easy clean-up. I also provide extra blankets to keep your furbabies warm. I also have a separate eating area set up for your furbabies. I keep one extra crate, if needed when you bring your dog.
“Ashlee M. Is awesome pet and home sitter!!! Even after a large snake was curled up on our front door her first day, that did not deter her from doing a great job with our pets and home! Would recommend, trust and use her again anytime!”
About: Hi, I'm Marquette! I work from home and welcome one household at a time, with up to two pets from the same family. I don't have pets of my own, so your dog can settle in without sharing their stay with unfamiliar animals. I grew up with dogs, previously had one of my own, and started boarding clients in early 2026. I like learning the little things: where your dog likes to sleep, how they ask to go out, and what helps them feel at home. If they're shy, I'll give them time to warm up. I'll follow their usual routine, including meals and any medication given as instructed. My clients often mention the detailed photos and updates I send. Before your booking, we'll agree on how often you'd like to hear from me and your preferred way to stay in touch. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so meals, potty breaks, walks, and company fit into my day. I also provide walks and drop-in visits, so we'll discuss your pet's routine and any time I'll be away before booking. For boarding, I can usually offer potty breaks every 2-4 hours. For house sitting, we'll agree on overnight care, daytime visits, and how long your pets are comfortable being alone so you know what to expect. I live in an apartment close to Dallas Love Field, with a park right across the street for walks and sniff breaks. There's one enclosed, fenced patio area with no exterior exit. Patio time is supervised, and walks are suited to your dog's needs. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and bed. I host one household at a time and have no resident pets or children. I'll follow your feeding, medication, and care instructions, and we'll talk through any escape habits, separation anxiety, or handling concerns before the stay. I carry pet-care insurance through Pet Sitters Associates for boarding, house sitting, walks, and drop-ins.
About: I’ve always loved being around animals. My family has two pets, and I’ve helped care for my friends’ and family’s pets whenever they travel or have busy schedules. I enjoy walking, feeding, playing with, and making sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved. I’ll care for your pet like they’re part of my own family. I'm teacher para for elementary school at 7am to 3:10pm through Monday to Friday. Ill free after that. I'm college student online at ACC at Austin My family has two pets at home. I sometimes help take care of my friends' and family's pets when they're out of town, busy, away for a long time, or in other situations where they need help.
About: I have 8 years of experience caring for pets and understand how important it is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As a dog owner myself, I know that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m happy to provide attentive care, feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and plenty of affection. I strive to follow each pet’s routine and each owner’s instructions to help make time apart as stress-free as possible. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness will always be a priority! I do my best to maintain a flexible schedule and accommodate each pet’s needs. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, so I’ll do my best to follow their usual feeding, walking, playtime, and rest routines. I’m happy to communicate with pet parents to coordinate care and make sure their pets receive plenty of attention, love, and companionship while they’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide loving, attentive care in the comfort of your home, where your pet can stay in a familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I carefully follow all feeding instructions, walking schedules, and special care requests. I respect your home, keep your space clean, and ensure doors, gates, and other areas are secure to help keep your pet safe. I also believe communication is important, so I’m happy to provide updates and photos for your peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make sure you feel confident knowing your pet and home are in trustworthy, caring hands.
About: I've been a foster carer for various greyhound organizations here (ATX and DFW) and in Australia. I get the hounds that are cat safe and get them used to living with cats. I'm always fostering, which is why I cannot take in more dogs for sitting, but I can do pop-ins. Before I fostered greyhounds, I used to petsit for friends' parents. I love to scritch ears, make up stupid songs for them, and play on the floor. My current pack consists of two sighthound mixes and two middle-management cats. Am I Katy or Mary? Both. The joy of going by either the first name or the nickname. You can call me Katy. The IRS can keep calling me Mary ... and please, if you're from IRS, don't call me. I am currently working from home and would love the excuse to get out and walk or, when it's really too hot, engage in play in the backyard. I am mindful of the various personalities I could encounter. I understand that not all pets want to play. Some want to chill and know that you're there. Others need to get that energy out. When doing pop ins, I would be mindful of what their humans say.
“Stephany was wonderful! My wife and I recently moved to Texas and didn't have anyone close to help us so we turned to Rover for the first time. Stephany was so easy to work with, she is met with us for a meet and greet, took the time to keep contact with us while we were gone with daily updates, and kept up our house as well! I would recommend Stephany to anyone!”
“Amanda was great 👍 She cared for our senior dog with so much patience. Our dog seems to also really enjoyed having her around and she sent us many photo updates while we were away that helped brighten our days.”
About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! Although I’m new to Rover, I have years of personal experience caring for pets and I’m committed to providing safe, loving care and clear communication. I am currently a college student, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent and reliable pet care. I am able to plan my classes and free time around pet visits, walks, and overnight stays to make sure each pet gets the attention they need. I’m available on weekdays between classes as well as evenings and weekends, and I prioritize being punctual, dependable, and fully present when caring for animals. My schedule gives me the ability to stay organized while still giving pets plenty of care, attention, and companionship. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they can feel relaxed and cared for. I make sure they have regular walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, crate time if needed, and any specific instructions from the owner. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel secure, loved, and stress-free while staying with me.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Pleasant Valley
Maddy is amazing!! We have hired her more than once to stay at our home and care for our crew!! She posts pics every day, updates us regularly, and has our home cleaner than when we left it!! Our pets are happy, loved, and well taken care of!! Her flexibility is amazing!! She is so kind and we love her like a member of our own family! ♥️
I had a great time working with Christine. She is kind, patient, and communicative which is exactly what we needed for peace of mind during a long trip away from our cats. I am very paranoid about leaving my cats but Christine matched my requested schedule and accommodated any specific requests or instructions for cat care. I would definitely recommend Christine for any pet sitting needs!
Kiana was so great. She communicated so well and with a dog that has a medical condition I never once worried if anything was wrong. My home was well taken care of and she went above and beyond for the pups. I would absolutely book her again! Thank you Kiana!
I cannot recommend Rebecca enough! She stayed in our home for two weeks while we were out of the country to care for our elderly dog and cat, and she exceeded every expectation we had. Leaving senior pets can be stressful, but she made the entire experience completely worry-free, we have never been on vacation without worrying about our babies until now. Rebecca provided thoughtful daily updates with photos, giving us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious from every message that she genuinely cared for our pets and treated them with so much love, patience, and compassion. She also administered our dog’s daily medications with great care and consistency, which was incredibly important to us. She went above and beyond—not only making sure they were comfortable, well cared for, but also taking wonderful care of our home. I truly don’t even have the words to express our gratitude for Rebecca and everything she did for us while we were away. We are so glad we found her.
Roua was fabulous & deserves 100 stars!! My XL breed Landseer Newfoundland had a major acl/tplo surgery & she took on this all day job 3 days post op. Not only did she take on a vet tech role for Aspen, I had plenty of updates, pictures, and she let me know Aspen was doing well- very detailed. Roua is amazing, great personality, my dog loved her, and she just tackled a job many would run from. If you need any care for your pet especially for post surgery care, don’t pass this sweet girl up! I will be booking again soon. 🐾🐾

FAQs for House Sitting - Pleasant Valley
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Pleasant Valley is $42 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $61 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.

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 Pleasant Valley 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 Pleasant Valley 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 Pleasant Valley 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 Pleasant Valley. On Rover:
- 88% 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.
