“Nikki was great. She was very mindful of our pets. Provided wonderful photos while we were out. And corresponded on any concerns she saw arise with our pets. It will give me great peace of mind going forward to work with Nikki again to take care of our pets while we were out of town. She definitely goes above and beyond.”

“Thank you, Caitlin, for taking such good care of my cat! You communicate clearly and are very mindful about making sure he doesn’t eat anything he shouldn’t. You’re always punctual and even stay beyond the reserved visit time to ensure everything is okay. I’m also glad my cat got along so well with you and enjoyed playing together.”

About: Hi! I’m a British animal lover who’s recently moved to The Woodlands, and I’d love to help care for your furry family! I’ve grown up around dogs of all shapes and sizes, so being around animals has always been a huge part of my life. I’m also a proud dog mum to two mini dachshunds (my little weiner dogs!), so I know just how much our pets mean to us and how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with them. I regularly volunteer at Montgomery County Animal Shelter, where I’ve gained valuable experience caring for animals with different personalities, needs and temperaments. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and nervous, or simply loves a good cuddle, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable and loved. I’m happy to care for both dogs and cats and will treat your pets as if they were my own. I understand that every animal is different, and I’ll always take the time to get to know their individual routines, quirks and needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles or simply keeping your pet company while you’re away, you can count on me to provide loving, reliable care and plenty of updates for your peace of mind. I can’t wait to meet you and your four-legged family! ❤️🐶🐱 I have a very flexible schedule as I’m not currently working, so I’m available for pet care throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. I can accommodate a variety of schedules, whether your pet needs regular walks, drop-in visits, day care or overnight sitting. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s routine and work around what suits you both best! 🐾 I offer loving, reliable pet care in the comfort of your own home, helping your pets feel safe and settled in their familiar surroundings while you’re away. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine, including feeding times, walks, playtime and any specific care or medical instructions. Whether your pet is full of energy, a little shy or simply loves company and cuddles, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection and care. I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your pets with someone you trust, so I’m happy to send regular photo and video updates to give you peace of mind. I’ll treat your pets as if they were my own and respect your home as if it were mine. Every pet is different, so I’m always happy to do a meet and greet prior to the booking, discuss their individual needs and routines beforehand to ensure they have the best possible experience! 🐾❤️

“Olivia is an exceptional pet care provider. The professionalism she brings is something I have yet to encounter on this app so far. Olivia noticed my male dog had an upset stomach and let him eat some grass, gave him more water, love, and care. She even stayed longer than the planned visit to clean his cage and grate mat, so he had something to lay on when she left. I highly recommend Olivia and will be using her for all future needs!”

About: While working at a hospital, I used to pet sit for Nurses while they were on vacation. Took time to take them for walks and to play with them. They were all very happy with the way I took care of them. Now I am retired and can devote more time to taking the dogs for walks and spending time with them. Although I don't have a pet at this time, I really like dogs. I like to have dogs sleep in their own beds as I don't like them in my bed. I hope that will not count against my ability to take care of dogs. I live alone so there won't be any children or adults who will have a problem with dogs. I have a big yard that dogs can enjoy. I am currently retired so there is no problem with availability unless I am already booked with a furry friend and I find most dogs take to me easily I have a big yard for your pet to enjoy and no other pets at home so your pet will receive my full attention and care I am retired and am available mostly all times except on some Holidays like July 4th and Thaksgiving. Maybe some Christmas. I have a great granddaughter who lives with me and she loves dogs and plays with them. I have a fenced back yard and only keep one dog at a time. I do go to workout Monday through Friday and do some other activities, so I am out of the house mornings for about 3 hours.

About: I have had dogs my entire life. As a child we always had dogs and as an adult I have always owned a dog. I pet sit friend's and family's dogs. I have always been successful with house training and training dogs to stay off of furniture etc. Living with and loving dogs, I find, is the best kind of therapy. They offer and deserve unconditional love. For me, dogs are family members!🐕‍🦺🦮🐕🐶❣ I do not work and I live alone so my schedule is completely up to me. I am very flexible and accommodating. I will work with your needs. I am mature so I know the importance of taking on the responsibility of your home as well as your fur babies. I am very clean too. You will find your home as clean or cleaner than you left it. I can also water plants and retrieve mail. Let me ease your worries while you are away from home. I do not work so my day is very flexible, your pup's schedule will become my schedule! I am free to follow whatever routine you have in place for your dog. I will care for your pets in your home exactly as you do. I request a list of routines and special instructions to make it easier on us both.

About: Howdy! My name is Shanna. I’m so excited for the chance to care for your fur baby! I have cared for pets professionally for over two years, and personally for sixteen years as that is how long I have had my own dogs. Sophie is a 16 year old Morkie, and Remington is a large mixed breed, so I am experienced with all sizes of dogs! I’d be happy to watch any dog or cat; size or age does not matter! I love all animals. I'm experienced in giving pets medicine, including eye medication. I also am more than willing to brush and/or bathe your pet. I’m a teacher on summer break, so I'm available most days all day! During the school year, my time will be limited to afternoons/evenings and weekends. I hope to hear from you and your fur baby!

About: My name is Maria and I live in a dog friendly apartment complex close to the University of Texas at San Antonio. My apartment is on the 3rd floor with a fully gated porch. My apartment has one bedroom and they can sleep with me if they prefer. Due to the size of my apartment I am only available to host small and medium sized dogs. I grew up with dogs and have had a beagle, Maltese, poodle, and retriever over my lifetime, all of which were family dogs. I currently do not have a dog, and prefer to only host one at a time (unless you have two, I'd be happy to host them together to avoid separation). I am currently a senior at UTSA and I'm studying Early Childhood Education and work within 5 minutes of my apartment. As I usually go home for lunches, I would be happy to give your dog a mid afternoon walk during that time in addition to an evening or morning walk- or all of the above!

Maria is absolutely INCREDIBLE!! I have never used a sitter before, so I was super nervous to leave my kitties with someone. It was a huge help that she accepted my same-day booking. She sent several updates throughout her drop ins, including both photos and videos. Maria even picked up/put away their toys and vacuumed my floors from the litter that got tracked. With her taking care of them, I wasn’t worried about my babies one bit!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Rayford

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Rayford is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $30 per visit. 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 November 2026, there are 5,168 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Rayford. 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 Rayford. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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.

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.
