“This was our first time using Rover, and I am so happy we found Ellen! Our dogs were well taken care of while we were gone, and Ellen provided multiple updates and photos throughout the day giving us full reassurance that our pups were in great hands.”
“Overall, I am VERY happy with Kahealani. She kept us updated throughout the stay, sent plenty of pictures, and even handled an issue with the neighbors dog who learned (or maybe it was our dogs who learned) to operate the latch on the gate between our yards and decided to come over for a swim. We have not had the best luck finding a pet sitter, but I am pretty sure we found someone in Kahaelani that took care of our babies in a way that made us feel happy. For the first time in a while, we did not have to worry about our puppies while we were gone, we knew they were in GREAT hands. I will be sending her name to a couple of my neighbors who are looking for a sitter for their dogs. She was GREAT and I cannot wait to use her services again, and I know my puppies can't wait!!!”
About: Hi! I’m currently an Animal Science student with a Pre-Vet minor, so caring for animals is a big part of both my life and my education. I love getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’ll treat your pet like they’re one of my own. I’m reliable, communicative, and excited to meet your furry best friend! I am a college student so I have plenty of time to provide services. I an looking forward to any time of day throughout the week. I make sure that the dog is comfortable and I won't make the dog do anything that it doesn't want to do. I cooperate with them as much as I can.
About: I’m a reliable and attentive dog owner with daily hands-on experience. I care for my own bulldog, including administering eye and nose medications, daily walks, and regular feeding. I’m comfortable sticking to routines, handling special care needs, and making sure dogs feel safe, exercised, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care is already a built-in part of my daily routine. When I’m home from college baseball at Colorado State University Pueblo, I consistently care for my two dogs with daily feeding, walks, and attention, and I also help care for cats with feeding and litter box upkeep. I’m used to structuring my schedule around practices, training, and responsibilities, so I’m reliable, organized, and able to make pet care a priority throughout the day and week. I tailor my care to each pet’s routine and needs, whether in my home or a client’s home. I follow feeding schedules closely, provide daily walks and exercise, and make sure pets have plenty of attention and comfort. I’m attentive to cleanliness, including keeping food areas and litter boxes clean, and I carefully follow any special care instructions. My goal is to maintain a calm, consistent environment so pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away.
About: Hii my name is Caroline & I am 27 years old :) I have been an animal lover my whole life. I got my first dog, a Westie, when I was 8 years old and helped raise and train him myself. I grew up with him and my Scottie, who were truly my babies and both lived long, happy lives. I’m currently in between pets of my own, which is part of why I’d love the opportunity to care for yours! I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets attention, walks, playtime and company throughout the day. I’m comfortable with dogs of different ages and personalities, and I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets while you’re away. I’ll treat them like they’re my own🤍 I work full-time from 9–5, but I work from home Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, so I’m home most of the week. I only go into the office on Wednesdays, and even then it’s not every week. My schedule is flexible, so I can easily make time for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks and lots of attention throughout the day I have a secure, fenced yard and a doggy door that is perfect for smaller dogs (although I’m still happy to watch big dogs) I’m happy to care for your pet in my home, stay with them in yours, or stop by for walks, feeding, potty breaks and playtime. I know every pet has their own routine and personality, so I’ll follow your instructions closely and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll give them plenty of attention, exercise and love, and I’m also happy to send photos and updates while you’re away🤍 also can do dog walking before/after work if anyone needs just that!
“This was the first time I’ve ever left my sweet girl with someone other than a family member or friend! He is super kind and took amazing care of our girl Gracie and loved her like his own which was exactly what we were looking for. He sent us pictures and videos on our trip and communicated thoroughly! Will definitely use him again we loved having him!”
“We have a chaotic house with four animals, but Avery was unfazed. Right away it's obvious she is great with animals. She stayed at our home for two weeks and managed the madness beautifully. Professional, highly communicative, and genuinely caring. Our fur babies loved her!”
“Nefta was absolutely incredible! I cannot recommend her enough. During her stay, it rained and our dogs got very dirty… she cleaned them up, our house was clean and she even washed and folded the towels she used. She sent lots of photos and updates during our time away. She took the stress out of leaving our boys for a week away on holiday! We will be using Nefta’s services again! Thank you for all you do!”
“Jeanette was so professional and reliable. I would highly recommend her services to anyone in need of doggy care. I used her in a bind, and she followed through impeccably. My two dogs don’t trust people, but Jeanette was persistent enough to win them over and treated them with the care I would demand for my own kids. She’s amazing, professional and trustworthy. Thanks Jeanette!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I’ve taken care of private commercial kennels and helped with training “challenging” dogs. I enjoy getting to know their different personalities and adjust my care accordingly. Have yet to train any of my fur babies how to make coffee, but I’ll persist! I’m retired so my schedule is very flexible. I can be available for just one day or whatever the family needs. It’s my pleasure to serve. I will stay with your dog/s the entire booking. They will be my number one priority. It’s best when they can stay in their home.
“Alyssa took excellent care of my home and our Aussie! She sent pics and provided updates and we could tell our baby doggy was well cared for. I will absolutely use Alyssa next time we leave and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a safe, loving, clean and competent home and dog sitter!”
“Jahci did an amazing job with our two girls. One of them is super shy and timid, but warmed up to Jahci right away. She is timely and the communication was great. She took amazing care of our place as well (pretty sure she left the house cleaner than we did!) We have already booked her for a second time and our girls are looking forward to seeing her again!”
“Brittany did a great job with our two dogs and three cats. She sent pictures to us on a regular basis and stayed in contact with us. Our pets really liked her.”
About: I am a professional pet photographer and have been around dogs for the majority of my life. Originally from Russia, I now live near the Woodlands.

NOTE ~ Older dogs with special needs such as multiple medications or eye drops or ear drops or any other special needs = $75 per night rate. New Clients - we require a meeting before booking to make sure your furry baby is comfortable with us and doesn’t display any behavioral issues. We'll be happy to keep your pup safe, entertained and happy while you’re away. We accept dogs over the age of 2 years old (no puppies). Thanks & looking forward to meeting you and your sweet pup! Why I love dog sitting I have been around dogs my whole life since the age of 14, and very experienced with dogs. I can also provide training and re-inforce some of the common commands. My experience administering medication: Yes, oral medication OK - I have been given many pups their meds; no problem. I am a photographer and work from home. My schedule is very flexible - it allows me to stay home with the pups most of the time. I have a fenced yard. Our neighborhood has many walking paths as well. I am working from home.

About: I’ve had many pets starting at such a young age. Everyone in my family has dogs of every breed, size, and age so I feel like I’m equipped to handle most dogs. I’ve always loved cats as well and just recently adopted a cat, I know how to handle them too. As for small animals, I have pet rabbits, hamsters, and chickens. I can handle and care for most small animals. I babysit my family’s animals and friends animals when needed. I also took veterinary classes in high school so I understand what kind of care and attention goes towards everyone’s fur babies! :) Im currently in college and have a part time job early every morning besides Tuesdays and Sundays(I’m a barista). I’m usually free all day after 9am - 11am most days. Caring for my animals is making sure they are happy, content, and to give them love and attention anytime I can get to it. I currently have a senior dog who I have to keep close attention to and open ears to make sure she isn’t struggling to go outside, needs a good back rub, or needs to be fed. My rabbits have a schedule when to eat so I know how to follow instructions on when and what to feed other people’s pets. I’m very patient, understanding, and, fast it comes to some animals being shy/ scared or having extra amounts of energy that’s hard to contain at moments.
“Journey did an incredible job house sitting for us, sending us tons of updates and pictures. She is diligent and took great care of our dog and our cat. Will definitely be reaching out to her again!”
“Jalynn is wonderful! It was our first time having her pet sit and it was a long assignment almost two weeks over the Christmas holidays. She was so flexible and helpful and the pets were happy and well cared for. We are already planning to have her for our next vacation!”

The average cost of House Sitting in Prairie View is $37 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $34 and $67 per night.

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 Prairie View 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 Prairie View 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 Prairie View 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.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
