About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and absolutely love being around them. I understand how hard it can be to find someone who will care for your dog like you do, which is why I’m passionate about offering a loving and safe home-away-from-home for your pets. I have experience caring for dogs over the years and know plenty of helpful tips and tricks to make sure they feel comfortable and happy. Your dog will be treated like family—loved unconditionally and kept safe at all times. A typical weekday with me includes a morning feeding, a walk, playtime in the afternoon, and another walk and feeding later in the day. I work full-time, but someone is always home to keep your pets company and make sure they’re well cared for throughout the day. My mother and father, who live with me and also love dogs, often help out—so your pup will get lots of attention and affection. Triple the love! I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I work full time but someone is always home between my mother father and I to love on your furry friend at all times. No time left alone. I will always follow the let’s regular routine. It is import to me to have a low stress transition. I prefer having an initial meeting with parents and pets then a walk through to see their routine so that I can replicate it and cause as little disruption as possible.

“Tyler is the perfect cat sitter, I have 2 cats, one very energetic and the other one very low key but loves being pet, Tyler made sure that both of them where comfortable with him, he sends lots of pictures per visit and adds comments to keep me updated how everything is going; I had a last minute travel change and Tyler was able to accommodate more visits to make sure that my kitties where ok, when I got home both of my furry baby's where happy and relaxed. I would definitely recommend Tyler to anyone 💯, and definitely would book again with him in the future.”

“Amanda did drop in visits for my cat Winston at the last minute and did a wonderful job. I felt very comfortable with her taking care of my fur baby. She gave regular updates and sent lots of photos, and I could tell she cared for him well. She even vacuumed around the litter box and living room without being asked! I definitely recommend booking with her.”

About: I’ve been an animal lover and pet owner for most of my life. I previously owned a Pekingese puppy in my early 20s, but cats have always been a big part of my life. I currently have an orange tabby who came to me at just 3 weeks old and is now a healthy, strong 17-year-old senior cat. Having cared for him through every stage of his life, I understand the patience, attention, and extra care that young and senior pets can need. I believe pets deserve more than just the basics—I want them to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. What sets me apart is the personal experience and genuine love I bring to every pet I care for. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs and treat them with the same kindness and attention I would want for my own. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine, and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pets plenty of time and attention. I’m available for drop-in visits during the week and can stop by at different times depending on your pet’s needs and routine. I’m off work at 3 PM Monday through Thursday and at 2 PM on Fridays, with my weekends completely free. I’m available all day on weekends and have flexibility during the week for drop-in visits. I’m happy to work around your pet’s schedule, whether they need a quick check-in, feeding, playtime, walking, litter box care, medication reminders, or simply some extra love and companionship while you’re away. I care for every pet according to their owner’s specific instructions, routines, and preferences. I understand that pets are most comfortable when their normal routine is maintained, so I make sure to follow feeding schedules, walking guidelines, medications, litter box care, playtime, and any other instructions provided. I also treat every client’s home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’m mindful of keeping doors secure, maintaining a clean environment, and making sure pets are safe and comfortable throughout each visit. Most importantly, I want you to have peace of mind knowing your pets are in caring, trustworthy hands while you’re away.

About: I take the time to get to know each dog’s personality and preferences, tailoring my care to suit their individual needs. Whether it’s a favorite toy, specific playtime activities, or a preferred sleeping spot, I make sure each dog feels at home. Tuesday-Friday: 4pm-until (If needed I can pick a pet up after 7pm Monday I am currently enrolled in school) Saturday and Sunday: All day to provide regular exercise through walks, playtime, and interactive toys to keep the pet physically active and mentally stimulated. I also engage in activities that align with their interests, such as fetch for dogs.

About: Hi! My name is Taylor, and I’ve been providing trusted, attentive pet care through Rover since 2022, with 50+ five-star reviews from happy pet parents. I previously worked at a pet resort for two years, where I cared for both dogs and cats of all breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. Since then, I’ve continued pet sitting full-time and have experience with everything from daily medication administration and wound care to picky eaters, senior pets, and high-energy dogs. I’m calm in emergencies and always prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort. The best part: I WORK FROM HOME!! Which means your dog is rarely left alone and gets consistent attention throughout the day. I only care for one dog at a time, so your pet receives truly personalized, one-on-one care. I live in a quiet apartment community and take dogs on regular walks around the neighborhood, with access to nearby trails for longer walks when appropriate. I’m happy to tailor activity levels to your dog’s needs — whether they love long walks and playtime or prefer a more relaxed routine with extra cuddles. I’ve grown up with animals my entire life and currently don’t have pets of my own, which means my focus is entirely on the pets I’m caring for. I’d love to provide a safe, loving home-away-from-home while you’re away. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so pets are rarely left alone and receive frequent attention throughout the day. I’m available for regular walks, playtime, and potty breaks, and I can adjust my routine to meet your pet’s needs. I keep my calendar updated and communicate clearly about availability for weekdays, weekends, and longer stays. I never leave the pups longer than a few hours! I provide calm, attentive, one-on-one care in my home and only take one dog at a time. I work from home, so pets are rarely left alone and receive frequent potty breaks, walks, and attention throughout the day. I’m experienced with medication administration, special diets, wound care, and adjusting routines based on each pet’s individual needs and energy level.

About: Hi! I’m a caring and dependable pet sitter who loves creating a safe, comfortable environment for your furry family members while you’re away. I have experience caring for family pets during vacations, including looking after their homes while they traveled. I’ve also cared for my former roommate’s two cats when she was away for weekends. Most recently, I completed a 24-hour pet sitting and house sitting assignment in California before relocating to Texas. I believe every pet has their own unique personality and comfort level. I’m patient, respectful of their space, and allow pets to approach me when they’re ready to build trust. I pay close attention to their body language and routines so they feel safe, understood, and cared for. I’ve always had a natural connection with animals. I’ve had multiple dogs choose to seek out quiet moments of connection with me, including making eye contact, staying close by, or leaning against me for comfort. My sister’s dog, for example, often chooses to sit near me and lean against my leg when I visit, even though she says the dog doesn’t normally do that with people. I love taking the time to earn an animal’s trust and let them show me what they need. Whether your pet needs walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I’d love the opportunity to provide them with loving and dependable care while you’re away. I work part-time. I can stay at your house if needed. My day job varies but as long as I have a week's notice I can plan accordingly or work it around when I go to and from work. I do not have any pets of my own and therefore will treat your beloved pet as if it were my own. I am not providing any home services. I am only providing care at the client's houses. I have great nails that the animals love for me to scratch their backs with.

About: Hi! I’m passionate about providing safe, loving, and reliable care for pets of all kinds! I have 6 years of experience working in a veterinary office, where I gained valuable knowledge about animal health, behavior, medication administration, and recognizing signs that a pet may need extra attention. This experience has helped me become comfortable caring for pets with a variety of needs and personalities. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your fur-babies. I currently have two dogs and two cats of my own, so I know firsthand the patience, attention, and love that animals deserve every day. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, companionship, or specialized care, I will treat them as if they were my own. My goal is to provide peace of mind while you're away and ensure your pet feels happy, comfortable, and well cared for in my hands, so be on the look out for daily pictures and updates. :) I currently work remotely, which gives me the flexibility to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets throughout the day. Because I’m not commuting to an office, I’m able to maintain your pet’s normal routine, provide regular potty breaks, walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and companionship, and ensure they aren’t left alone for long periods of time. When caring for your pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I will provide plenty of love, attention, exercise, playtime, fresh food and water, and any medications or special care they may need. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, interactive play, cuddle time, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I'll tailor my care to their individual needs and personality. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. I will treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping it clean, tidy, and secure throughout my stay. I'll clean up after your pets, maintain their feeding and living areas, and leave your home in the same condition, or better, than I found it. You can feel confident knowing that both your pets and your home will be cared for with professionalism, attention, and respect while you're away.

Jacqueline was a 10/10! She was so sweet and friendly, and she made me feel comfortable right from the start. She sent tons of pictures of our pets along with detailed updates about everything she did during each visit, which is something no other sitter has ever done for us! It gave me so much peace of mind knowing our babies were in such good hands. She also went above and beyond by cleaning up our backyard without me even asking, and I’m so, so grateful for that! It’s the little things like this that really show how much she cares. I cannot recommend Jacqueline enough! She’s definitely a five star pet sitter, and we would absolutely love to have her care for our pets again. If you’re looking for someone kind, responsible, and thoughtful, she’s the one!

I’m floored with how my two sibling pups who are quite standoffish and skiddish took so quickly to Bre. I was extremely nervous about not having my cousin watch my pups, but Bre sent frequent video, photo and text updates, ran very timely and did what she said she was going to do! I cannot recommend a better sitter. Very communicative, very in tune and patient with their affection and especially kind. Thank you for taking such amazing care of Tony and Shane. We look forward to hosting you again soon Bre!

Courtney did an amazing job caring for both of our dogs—a 14-year-old senior and a 3-year-old. They were patient and gentle with our older dog while still giving our younger dog the attention, exercise, and energy she needed. It was such a relief knowing both of our dogs were in caring, trustworthy hands. We came home to two happy pups, and that means everything to us!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Round Rock

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Round Rock is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $29 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 October 2026, there are 7,041 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Round Rock. 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 Round Rock 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 .

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 , 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.

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.
