“Toni did a great job dog/house sitting for me. She was very communicative and sent daily updates. My 2 girls, who are leery of strangers at first, warmed up to her quickly.”


About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that animals just seem to love me, and I know how to help them feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’ve also cared for a senior dog, so I’m experienced with giving medication and making sure pets get the extra care they need. Taking care of pets fits right into my daily routine because I’m almost always available to care for your fluffy buddies. I’m usually free and flexible especially with having school and work outside of Rover, so your pets will always get the attention they deserve! When I care for pets in my client’s home, they get plenty of love, attention, and cuddles. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, always have fresh water, and get outside for potty breaks after meals. My goal is to keep them happy, comfortable, and cared for just like they would be with you.
“Sarah, thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my pet. It gave me real peace of mind knowing they were in such kind and attentive hands, even for just a few hours. I truly appreciate your warmth, responsibility, and the genuine care you showed. I would gladly trust you again anytime!”

“Michelle did an amazing job pet sitting/housesitting while we were gone for about 16 days. She would check in with us and send us pictures and videos and made us feel very reassured while we were gone. Even handled the chaos well when things went wrong with our water pump. Very kind and dependable and I would definitely recommend her!”

I’m experienced with dogs, cats, farm animals, medications, injections, and canine CPR. I have a flexible schedule and offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight pet sitting in your home. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and needs. I treat every client’s home with respect and every pet with patience and care. I follow their routine, instructions, medications, and safety needs while providing a calm, comfortable environment.

About: ❗️If your house has any signs of fleas, do not book with me.❗️I have always grown up with pets in my house hold, i have always token care of them when no one else did and gave them the love they deserve. We are with them their entire lives, while they are with us for only a portion. I will be gentle and patient with them until they gained my trust. I can bathe them and play with them too, i cannot groom though. But i can make them smell all yummy! College student! I do go to college all year, even in the summer! I don’t have an outside job, so the only thing taking me away from your furry family is school! I’m always open and i can always get to your fur baby’s when needed! I have 1 doggy of my own and she has fear aggression towards other people and dogs, i’ve learned to work around her personality and to go forward. I bathe my dog by hand inside my home every 1-2 months (depends on if she gets dirty, she’s got a self-cleaning coat) and she gets fed every night! (she eats at her own pace so i just top off her bowls) She is trained to sit, paw, talk, wait, and lay down! She is my first daughter and my soul dog! I love her to death!!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine love and personalized attention for each pet, making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for like part of my own family. I also focus on clear communication with pet owners to keep them updated and at ease. I am currently a senior in highschool and the thing i enjoy most is animals! I have two maltipoos in my home and i am their main care taker but just meeting new dogs brightens up my day. It’s not about the money when it comes to pet care, it’s getting to spread my love to other animals! I make sure to keep pets comfortable and calm by sticking to their usual routine, giving them lots of love, playtime, and exercise. Whether they’re at my place or yours, I follow any special care instructions closely and keep the environment safe and clean.

About: I have been house sitting for about the last 15 years. All types of pets , all breeds, all sizes. I have 1 dogs of my own. Have watched 1 dog to families that have 6. I can handle shy dogs , hyper dogs, old dogs , big dogs . I can handle all pets . I prefer to stay at your home . This makes it more comfortable for all animals . I have about 5 families I watch for regularly . These animals all have needs , all have different personalities, feeding schedules and some even have medicine . I love to do this and hope to be able to do this for he next few years . Thank you !! A I currently work full time, but have a very lenient schedule that allows me to come and go all day a night. I'm also a home body and stay home and in doors on the weekends. This makes for an easier watching experience. The care at home all depends on the family and their animals needs. I like to follow their schedules as much as I can compared to how their owners do. I keep their potty breaks and meals around the same times and keep them active throughout my visits so they don't miss their humans to much :)
“This was our first appointment with Iahnna. She was watching our dog and a visiting dog. In the short time we were gone, Iahnna had loved on both and taken both out for a little walk and potty break. The dogs enjoyed her attention, and I appreciated the communication, pics and reel.”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for 8+ years, and my passion for animals has grown into a career in veterinary medicine as a veterinary physiotherapist. My professional experience has given me hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, including senior dogs and pets with special needs or mobility challenges. I currently offer house sitting and dog walking. I work a regular daytime schedule Monday–Friday, so my house-sitting routine is built around morning and evening care during the week, with full-day availability on weekends. I’m a great fit for families traveling for vacation who want their pets to stay comfortable in their own home and maintain their normal routine while they’re away. While you’re gone, I’ll keep you updated with daily photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ll follow their normal feeding, potty, walking, medication, and exercise routines and treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I work full-time Monday–Friday as a Veterinary Rehabilitation Technician. I provide morning and evening care around my work schedule during the week, and I’m available all day on weekends. I’m especially happy to care for pets while their families are traveling, keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. I treat every pet in my care like they are part of the family while respecting their individual needs and routines. My experience working in veterinary rehabilitation has taught me to be attentive to changes in behavior, mobility, energy, and overall comfort. I follow your instructions carefully and prioritize keeping your pet safe, comfortable, and happy in their own home.
“We recently had the pleasure of having Tammy take care of our two dogs for five days, and we couldn’t be happier with her services. After years of holding off on vacations due to our dogs' special needs, Tammy provided us with a newfound sense of freedom. Her ability to administer injectables was a crucial factor for us, and she handled it with professionalism and care. Tammy also went above and beyond by collecting a few Amazon packages that arrived during our absence. What truly set Tammy apart were her daily updates and photos. It was so comforting to see our dogs happy and well-cared for while we were away. We can't wait to work with Tammy again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable and compassionate dog sitter. Thank you, Tammy, for giving us peace of mind and allowing us to enjoy our vacation worry-free!”

About: I've taken care of a few of my friend's and family's dogs over the past few years. I have only had cats growing up, but I love dogs and would love to spend more time with them! I'm currently a student, so I have plenty of time in the evenings and weekends to care for pets. I would spend ample time with them, as I am missing my animals from home immensely. I cannot board currently due to my housing restrictions, but I will take care of your pets with the attention I would give to my own.
About: As a family very familiar with farms I've been around a multitude of animals from large livestock, goats to rabbits, cats and dogs from a very young age. I absolutely adore going above and beyond for your pet! Every animal I interact with is going to get the same premium treatment my pets do. I worked in a vet office as a veterinary technical assistant during my senior year as well. I am currently a student going to Texas A&M Galveston for my Bachelor's and Masters degrees, I plan to go fly planes into hurricanes for data collection! I have classes late into the day Tuesday and Wednesdays but besides that I am very available for early mornings before 10 and afternoons after 130! weekends are on a case by case basis. I live in a dorm but am more than happy to take your fur baby to the park or stay in your home and the safe environment they know!
About: I've been a pet owner for half my life. I could not imagine life without a furr baby. They bring joy to my life. They are part of my family. I work from home so it makes it easy to attend to the needs of taking care of your pet. I can work on a flexible schedule. I have a fenced yard with plenty of running space. I have one small shihtzu who would enjoy the company. They are free to roam in the house as well.
About: I've cared for different breeds for 10 years, including my own huskies. I'm comfortable with medication, senior pets, puppies, anxious animals, and I follow each owner's routine for feeding, walks, and meds exactly. I send photo updates every day, and I check the home and yard for hazards when I arrive. Pets get patience and attention, not just a quick visit. Pet care fits easily into my schedule. I'm flexible on days, evenings, weekends, and holidays, and I can usually accommodate last-minute requests. I'm home most of the day and able to schedule visits around my day, so I can offer midday check-ins, longer visits, or overnight stays. Tell me what your pet's routine looks like, and I'll build my schedule around it. Safety comes first. When I arrive, I check the home and yard for hazards like open gates, loose cords, toxic plants, and anything a pet could swallow. I follow your feeding, medication, and walk instructions exactly, keep pets on a leash outside unless you tell me otherwise, and make sure doors and gates are secured when I leave. I send photo updates during every visit, and if anything seems off, I contact you right away and follow your vet's instructions. I'm happy to do a meet-and-greet first so your pet and I can get comfortable, and so you can show me where everything is.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 886 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across San Leon. 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 San Leon 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 San Leon 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 San Leon 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in San Leon. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
