“Aiiaha was very attentive for our cat Saint and followed all of his care instructions. She was very thorough and treated Saint like family. I would highly recommend her services!”
About: My family has always had dogs. I am more a dog person than I am a person type of person. I have a 6 year old Shih-Tzu and she is the cutest thing on four paws. I really enjoy teaching her new tricks and I would love to do the same with your pup when I meet them. I have a dog who I walk literally every day. Helping others out who can't get their dogs out for a walk would be my pleasure. I enjoy the fresh air and the time to step away from my computer and work. Also, I would love to do most of this work on the weekends which I have open availability during. I will not be boarding any pets. But if you hire me to check in on your pup I will follow any and every instruction you give. I understand that a stranger coming into their space is alarming for most dogs and I want to make sure they are comfortable with me. I would even love to meet your pup pre-hire so that they are familiar with me.
“Again Ms. Cat did an amazing job with my 2 babies. She is very attentive with them and knows each of their personalities really well. The biggest struggle for me is ensuring that my older dog, Walker, could get his medication. We talking through his needs each day, twice a day and she had no issues administering his eye drops. When I arrived home they were both comfortable and not stressed as I have experienced with other sitters.”
“Kayla communicated thoroughly and provided excellent care to my two senior dogs. She rolled with the punches when there were accidents and kept me informed. We will definitely be booking with Kayla again in the future.”
About: Our family has had two very sweet cats for over a decade. We love them so much. I can always tell how they feel based on their nonverbals. I am happy to rearrange my schedule to meet the needs of the pet parent. Happy to work recurring gigs as well! Please feel free to request drop ins, sitting, and walks. I’m happy to feed, walk, and clean up any messes that your fur babies may have made. If you have any specific requests please don’t hesitate to ask!
“Lyric is 10/10 recommend for sitting your puppies. They fell in love with her in a day and I was sad to see the visits in because they will be looking for her. I will book her in the future 10000000%. Thank you Lyric for taking care of my precious pups.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Rex
Tavia was a wonderful sitter for my fur babies! She was professional, punctual, and kept me updated throughout the entire time I was away, which gave me great peace of mind. She went above and beyond—even taking the time to clean up after the dogs in the yard while she was caring for them. What really stood out to me was how quickly my oldest girl, Wynter, warmed up to her. Wynter is VERY leery of new people and usually takes her time getting comfortable, but she warmed right up to Tavia and even gave her a handshake, which is basically Wynter’s way of letting me know, “She’s good people!” 😂🐾 I came home to happy pups and everything well taken care of. I would absolutely recommend Tavia to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter, and I will definitely use her again. Five stars!
I have such amazing things to say about Marisa!! First of all she is just a great person! Second off, I have a very stubborn 6 year old German shepherd that is extremely protective of his home and somewhat standoffish at first. We had a meet and greet a few days before our trip and max seemed to like her so we felt confident it would work out. After several treats and a few visits max warmed right up to her and now they are best buds! She took her time and got to know the big sweet boy underneath his stubbornness lol! We will definitely be rebooking with her every time we are out of town! I recommend her 1000%!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Rex is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $22 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 5,902 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Rex. 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.
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 Rex 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!
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.
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Rex with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Rex. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
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.
