“Katie pet sit for my 2 dogs Lucky and Remi over the Labor Day weekend. Katie came to my house prior to pet sitting to meet Lucky and Remi. Remi usually has to warm up to you but she went right up to Katie I knew right them my babies would be in good hands, because Remi does not just go up to strangers or people she's not familiar with. Katie kept me informed the whole weekend and even sent me pictures. I would definitely recommend her..”
“Damarilys did an excellent job taking care of our two dogs for the two days/nights she was with them. Her response time to messages I sent both before and during her sitting time was more than satisfactory. She also sent multiple pictures to of both dogs during her time with them. I’d definitely use her again if we’re going out of town. Amy”
About: I’ve taken care of pets of all ages from bottle feeding pets to giving injections to senior pets. I look forward to meeting your SETX pets!

I love taking pups out to the local parks, or exercising your pet in the back yard. I sadly cannot keep any dogs in my house.

I can also provide a reference!

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently care for two regularly, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, routines, and needs. What sets me apart is my ability to match a dog’s energy—whether they want to play and be active or just relax and take it easy, I adjust to what makes them most comfortable. I’m reliable, patient, and pay close attention to instructions, making sure your pet stays on their normal routine. I also make sure to keep you updated so you can feel confident your dog is safe and well cared for while you’re away. I can make time for you and your dog at any time and any place! Summer time is the best for your dog, but so is the winter! Fall and spring work just as well, so come one, come all! I have two dogs of my own at my house. I have had dogs all of my life and feel fairly comfortable around most dogs. I am very open to being active with them and caring for them!
“Tessa cared for our three dogs over a 4day period. She was able to add my son’s dog to our little pack last minute as his sitter was unavailable. She is prompt and professional. One of my dogs is on daily medications, she was very thorough with his medications and made sure to give me updates. She is sensitive to their needs and spends time with them each visit. I was very happy with her services and will continue to work with her in the future. I highly recommend Tessa for your pet sitting needs.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Port Neches
Hands down the best sitter we could ask for to take care of our baby. She was more than tentative and went above and beyond with the best check in photos and videos. If you want someone to take care of your fur baby like one their own, she's your girl! Would absolutely reccomend🩷

FAQs for House Sitting - Port Neches
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Port Neches on Rover is $32.1 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 71 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Port Neches. 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 Port Neches 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 Port Neches 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 Port Neches 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
