“Katie provided my pup with the greatest visit experience. It was awesome to know someone was there for him when I had to work extended hours. She came for a meet and greet and Haides took to her immediately. Highly recommend for all services she provides”

About: I've had all manner of pets during my life, being the primary caretaker of cats and dogs in the home since a very young age, dogs and cats being my favorite due to their playful nature. Now that my kids are getting older and wanting more pets in our home (we have 1 cat), I'd like to teach them responsibility and pet care by petsitting and walking dogs. Plus with all their energy and love, kids make the perfect friend for energetic dogs that love to play. My cat would also love a playmate, as he grew up with a big dog and misses having a friend! I currently work from home, so I could use the company and breaks to go outside and take walks just as much as your furry best friend! I have a large yard perfect for playing fetch and a big house so pups won't feel cramped. My kids are full of energy and would love a an energetic dog to play with or even an old dog to pour lots of love into with petting and belly rubs in abundance.

About: I am more than happy to meet with you prior to booking with me! I acknowledge that it is important for you to get know me, as well as is it for me to get to know you. Having pets comes with great responsibilities. I have raised puppies since I was 9 up until now. I am a biologist and grew up on a farm, so I know how to care for all kinds of animals. I currently have a 6 year old Labrador Retriever named Kaia and 8 year old Weimaraner named Blue. Sisters that love to run, swim, and live a very fun life along with me and my parents. Most of the breeds I have owned have been large breeds: Labradors, Bloodhounds, Dalmatians, Weimaraners, along with small sized breeds such as Beagles and Miniature Australian Shepherd. Working here full-time so let me care for your furry friend. I love to walk, they love to walk, in a win-win for both! 😊 I am not open to dog/cat sitting at my place, but I will gladly care for your friend at your place if needed. I am able to walk, feed, or take them to potty ever 2-3 hours. If your yard is not fenced, that is not a problem. If your yard is fenced, I will spend time with your dog, play with them, and clean up after them.

“I was apprehensive about leaving my boys with a stranger because they've only known me and my family. Liliana was PHENOMENAL! She stayed in constant communication with me and sent frequent updates with photos. The cats took to her immediately and even got comfy enough to lay in her lap. She was so attentive to their needs and even left gifts for all our kitties. I can not speak highly enough of her! I would highly recommend her for your own pets since she will treat them like the family members they are.”

About: There was never a time in my life where I didn’t have a multitude of pets. I grew up with a family that loves the outdoors and everything in it. Something special about my care is that I’ve had years of experience in rehabbing injured animals. Because of this I’ve learned that patience and attentiveness are so important to a happy healthy pet. I’m devoted to meeting your pet halfway- or wherever I’m needed- in order to help you in any way I can! I work part time Monday-Friday and by 9AM I have the rest of the day to myself! My schedule would be most ideal for a family who needs help during the day or any time from 9:30AM-7PM. I look forward to working something out with you. I appreciate thorough instruction to insure that I am handling things exactly the way you imagine and prefer. Aside from caring for your pet I also like to lightly clean if needed/wanted to give you a little less to deal with.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for 8 years, starting when I was 15 and in high school. What began as a way to earn extra money quickly became something I genuinely loved! I recently moved to Beaumont to pursue my Doctorate in Audiology, and being away from home made me realize how much I missed being around animals. I’m excited to get back into pet sitting through Rover and meet some new furry friends! 🐾💗 I’ll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and care I’d want for my own. Whether they need walks, playtime, cuddles, or a little company, I’m happy to be there for them! 🐶💕 I’m a full-time Doctor of Audiology student, so my schedule varies, but I’m usually available Friday through Sunday. During the week, I’m generally available after 5:00 PM for evening walks, drop-ins, and pet care. I’m happy to work with your schedule and will always make sure I have enough time to give your pet the attention and care they deserve! 🐾💗 Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! 🐾 I provide a calm, loving, and attentive environment and always follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, medications, and any special instructions. For boarding, I currently live in a dorm, so I can only accommodate small, well-behaved dogs that are comfortable in a smaller living space. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, cuddles, and care throughout their stay. For care in your home, I’ll treat your space with respect and care for your pet as if they were my own. 💗

About: My mom has relied on me to feed, care, walk, and bathe our dogs growing up. My grandma has also relied on me to Watch overheard puppies as she left for vacation vacations. I have been doing this for 10+ years. I am currently working part time, I am available every weekday until 4 PM when I would go to work. While at work, I have three family members that can care for your pets while I am gone. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of room for them to play. I am more than happy to kennel, my friendly golden retriever and orange kitten whenever.

About: I have had many types of experience through-out my life caring for pets. Just to name a few, I’ve had dogs, cats, birds, guinea pigs, and a chinchilla. I have potty trained my pups, and simple commands/tricks. Currently my schedule is open so I am able to care for pets anytime weekdays and weekends. Animals with a more rigorous/timed schedule are welcomed as well. I have friendly and loving doodles who are always trying to make friends. We regularly bring them to the beach, parks and long walks. They love making new friends and playing fetch. They have a large backyard to play in at times but they are usually in the house because they are spoiled and this Texas heat is savage. I can crate pets if needed, it just depends on your preference.

About: I’ve spent years helping friends, family, and neighbors with their pets, from energetic puppies that need extra playtime to older dogs that prefer slow walks and sticking to a routine. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, refreshing water, cleaning up accidents, giving plenty of attention, and making sure pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. I know every pet has a different personality, so I take the time to earn their trust instead of forcing interactions. Whether your pet loves to play fetch, go on long walks, or just relax with someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and give updates while you’re away. I’m currently in nursing school, and I have a pretty flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and overnight stays. I keep my availability updated and only accept bookings I know I can fully commit to, so your pet always receives reliable, attentive care. I’ll also send regular photo and message updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, favorite walking routes, and any house rules. I take time to build trust with each pet, pay attention to their body language, and keep a calm, clean environment. I’ll treat both your home and your pet with the same care and respect I would my own.

She came over for a meet and greet with Gracie who is VERY skittish with new people. Gracie took to Anne like she had known her for a while! We felt very comfortable leaving our girl with Anne. Thanks for the pictures and updates every time you came over. We LOVE the communication! Anne is awesome--use her!”

About: Hi, my name is Reyna and I've had pets all my life. From bunnies to cats and now I am the loving pawrent of 2 Dachshunds named Nitro and Winnie and 1 recently adopted Chihuahua named Larue. I completely understand that eventhough we wish we could take our furbabies wherever we go sometimes that is not an option. You can count on me to check up on your babies if you ever head out for the day and need peace of mind. I can drop in for a check in, feed them, walk them, play with them and head back out. I am a full time employee during the week but I am available most Fri-Sun. I am a full-time employee Monday-Thursday. I am available most Friday-Sunday for drop in visits with your pets especially if told ahead of time. You can count on me to drop in and feed, walk or play with your babies. I know some have more energy than others and require more walking and playing than others and I can do that. You can trust to let me know what your furbabies activity level is so I can plan an exciting drop in visit for them.

Jessica was great as usual. I had to have a procedure done for my heart that day. I never worried about my pup because I knew she was taking excellent care of him.

Jessica did a great job taking care of my cats. That are very skittish of anyone they don’t know, so they usually go hide when they hear the door open. She made sure they had food and water and a clean litter box, that’s what I needed someone to do. I would definitely recommend Jessica for your pet care.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Port Arthur

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 103 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Port Arthur. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Port Arthur. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% 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.

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.
