“Christine is the best! We were gone for 6 days, and she handled all of our dogs quirky and lovable obsessions. Also we had an unusual home and yard issue which she helped us with. House was just like we left it but, “a much happier place when we returned. A lot of dog loving going on. Jinx , our 16 yr old border collie told us she will miss her until the next time.”
“Rasika was amazing to work with. I needed someone very last minute and she was very fast to respond and arrange for us to introduce her to Ekko. She has good experience working with dogs and is great at ensuring they are comfortable and relaxed. She sent very frequent updates and photos during her time with Ekko to show things are going well. Highly recommend working with her!”
“Melissa was great! The dogs loved her and were perfectly taken care of. Very responsive and sent pictures and videos while we were gone to make it a little easier to be away from them. Will absolutely book again!”
“I can’t recommend Marissa enough! She took incredible care of my two cats and my home while I was away. She sent thoughtful updates and adorable photos every day, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my girls were happy, loved, and well cared for. When I got home, my house was spotless and exactly as I had left it. It’s clear she is dependable, respectful, and truly cares about both the pets and the homes she’s entrusted with!”
“Cortney is such a great sitter for our 2 dogs. They are happy and calm when we return! Cortney keeps us updated so we feel very comfortable and are able to relax and enjoy being away. She also leaves our house in great shape. Thanks Cortney!”
“Mo is so incredibly thoughtful and kind. He is great with our 12.5 year old boxer. He keeps up with her medication schedule, sent plenty or updates and pictures, and is just super communicative overall. With this being our second house/pet sitting experience with Mo, I can definitely say he is our new go to. Couldn’t recommend him more.”
“Jordan is a wonderful pet sitter! Great communication, kept us posted with lots of photos. Took great care or our house, too. But most importantly, our dogs loved him! Definitely would book again.”
“Mary was wonderful! She sent pictures along the way during the week we were gone and we could tell our dog and cat were well taken care of. Would definitely book her again!!!”
“Matthew was absolutely incredible and I will definitely be using him as our go to sitter moving forward. Our two dogs loved him and we dog daily updates/videos. He gave them good walks and was great with medicine for our older dog as well. We came back to a home cleaner than we left it too! Highly recommend him.”
“Melondy was extremely communicative and thoughtful during her stay with Layla. She made sure she came over right on time, sent me regular updates on how Layla was doing and followed the pet care instructions to the letter. Additionally she was respectful of our space and left the house spotless! I would absolutely book again!”
“Jeff is great. Extremely reliable and compassionate with my dogs. He took great care of them. And left my house in the same condition as it was when I left. I highly recommend him. I have had a lot of problems with Rover in Austin and Jeff is one of the few sitters I feel comfortable leaving my dogs with”

Quick and easy walk to the trail around lady bird lake.

Ana took great care of Kai while I was away. Kai is a German Shepard who can be quite anxious around new people but Ana was nice enough to come meet her a couple of times before I left which made her (and me) way more comfortable during her stay. She sent me tons of updates throughout the week which was very reassuring.
Elle is truly one of a kind! She takes incredible care of our two dogs and our home!! She goes above and beyond in every way, is incredibly detail oriented, and keeps us updated everyday with messages, photos, videos, which gives us complete peace of mind while we're away! Our dogs adore her!!! We always come home to a spotless house and happy dogs!
Sara took wonderful care of our dog, Alli, and our cat, Luna, while we were away for four days. She was reliable, communicative, and gave us complete peace of mind. She sent frequent updates and lots of pictures, which made it so much easier to enjoy our trip knowing they were doing well. When we got home, both Alli and Luna were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s obvious Sara genuinely loves animals and treated our pets like they were her own. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring pet sitter!
We feel so lucky to have found Bailey on rover! Took incredible care of our boy and the most updates and photos we have ever gotten with a sitter, which made us feel so reassured as pet parents he was having a good time and was so loved while we were away. Would book again in a heartbeat!
Annie was fantastic with my dog! She took great care of him and kept me updated throughout the stay with regular messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was a great communicator, reliable, and it was clear she genuinely cared about him. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Annie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter!
Ludo is hands down the best pet sitter I’ve ever used. My two dogs absolutely adore him, and that’s the highest compliment I can give. They’re genuinely excited every time he comes over, which gives me complete peace of mind when I’m away. Ludo is reliable, communicative, and clearly has a natural connection with animals. I never have to worry because I know my dogs are not only well cared for, but they’re also happy and loved while I’m gone. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like they’re his own, I can’t recommend Ludo highly enough. He’s truly exceptional, and I feel incredibly lucky to have found him.
I can always count on Grace to take excellent care of my Sheltie, Zero. She’s kind, communicative, and sends thoughtful updates that I look forward to each day. Zero is very shy around new people, so the fact that he warms up to her so quickly is a true testament to her natural way with animals. I always have peace of mind knowing he’s in her care!
Paige did a fantastic job watching our two dogs. You could tell that she took great care and paid attention to the little details. We were very appreciative of her communication and had peace of mind knowing that our beloved pups were in good hands. Cannot say enough good things about our experience.
Brooke was wonderful with my senior dog Lucky. She came over for a long meet and greet and got know his routine before we confirmed the booking. She was able to administers his medication and take care of all his needs during the stay so I knew Lucky was in good hands. She shared pictures during the visit where Lucky always looked happy and relaxed. So glad to know we had someone take such good care of my little man.
Absolute professional! My dog has a serious medical condition that requires very rigid care and Julian handled him marvelously. Julian was flexible enough to stay in my home while me and my wife honeymooned. His level of care gave me peace of mind so we could really enjoy our vacation.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Rollingwood on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 4,715 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rollingwood. 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 Rollingwood 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 Rollingwood 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 Rollingwood 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.

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.
