About: I am a well experienced vet nurse now in undergrad with high hopes for med school! I've been a dog trainer all the way up to ICU nurse. I can handle most any situation so you can leave your home and your babies comfortably with me! I'm going to school online on a self paced basis so pet care is a perfect fit for me and my schedule. My 86 year old neighbor loves my 1 year old miniature poodle Boseman and loves her little farm so long stays away are okay with the both of us. My poodle Boseman has free range of my place but is also fully kennel trained if need be (used when I worked long hospital hours). He gets walks around our pond or goes next door with my neighbor's 50+ chickens, 2 cats, and 3 dogs. He gets fed twice a day and plenty of treats (super high metabolism lol).
“Sarah took such great care of our pups! It means a lot to know you can trust someone to take care of your fur babies while you’re away. Will definitely reach out again for dog sitting when we need it.”
About: I have been a lover of animals for as long as I can remember. I have owned, fostered and taken care of many furry friends. I'm currently petsitting part-time, evenings and weekends are best for me. If you have any certain flexibility requirements, please contact me with any further detail. I've been a pet sitter and owner for most of my life. I'm dedicated to learning each individual pet to cater to their specific needs.
About: I’ve been raising animals my entire life and genuinely love caring for them. I’ve had experience with a wide variety of pets, including fish, dogs, hamsters, and guinea pigs, so I understand that each animal has its own personality and needs. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, walks, or just giving them attention and comfort, I treat every pet like they’re my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. My schedule is open and flexible, so I’m able to provide care whenever you need it, whether it’s regular visits or last-minute requests. I have one dog of my own and a spacious, treated, and securely fenced yard that provides a safe and comfortable environment for your pet to enjoy.
“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!”
About: I love taking care of dogs and playing with them. I grew up having a dog and now currently own one as well. We often dogsit for parents when they go on trips. I am a teacher in Clear Creek ISD. During the school year, I'm available on weekends and holidays. During the summer, I am available everyday! I will treat the pets like my own. I will feed them, take them on walks, and play with them. I will make sure they feel loved and cared for.
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!!
“We 100% trust Alyssa to take care of our dog and know he’s in great hands when she’s with him. We always get plenty of pictures and updates on Winston when he’s with her. We love Alyssa, and so does our dog!”
About: . I’ve been around, loved, cared for dogs and cats for most of my life. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets. I also had a toy poodle who was my baby for 12 years before she passed away last October. I know firsthand how hard it can be to find someone affordable who you can truly trust to be patient, gentle, and loving with your pet. I’m hoping to be that person for someone else. I genuinely miss having that companionship in my life, so your fur babies will get lots of love and attention while they’re with me. I’ll treat them with the same care and affection I would want someone to give my own. I’m a recent college graduate currently studying for law school, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the day, every day. I will follow your directions to a T and be every vigilant when it comes to your animals just how I would like someone to care for mine.
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.
“Tracy was incredible! I had her sit for my high-maintenance chihuahua puppy in my home multiple times and if it were possible, I’d have her sit for my puppy exclusively and regularly. Tracy was attentive to Scottie’s (my puppy) needs, she communicates incredibly well and she just really cares about pets and treating them with care, love, and respect (while also keeping them safe)! As if all of that wasn’t good enough, she followed my specialized instructions to the finest detail and she’s also just very kind and pleasant to be around. I highly recommend her (though it’s definitely more tempting to keep her for myself ☺️)”
“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.”

“Tatiana was proactive in making sure she knew everything she needed to know before the day-of. She is also very friendly and easy to chat with. Took great care of my puppy and I’d gladly book her again.”
About: I have loved animals ever since the 3rd grade I knew I wanted to be a veterinarian. I graduated from Texas A&M University- College Station with a B.S. of Science in Animal Science. I was able to a lot of hands on exposure that I’ve never got before with livestock. I currently work at a general practice animal hospital in league city as a Veterinary Technician. I’m doing any and everything to help me continue on my path of veterinary medicine. Anything dealing with animals I’m there. I am basically available all the time when I’m not at work. I work 4 days a week for about 9 hours during the day. My early morning and evenings are available. I AM AVAILABLE ON THE WEEKENDS- we would just have to talk about it more in detail. I have cameras inside and outside of my home. Before I left off for school , I begged my mother to get a fence built around our house due to us living on a busy street. I was nervous for my babies. Cars have no mercy and are zooming through. I try my best to make sure they have everything they need regarding food,water, vaccines, treats & toys. Car rides are our favorite things. They also enjoy the doggy park, but due to the Texas heat it’s currently not a safe zone to be outside in the heat for long hours.
“Iviah was perfect . I felt so much better having someone stay with my elder dog . She gave me so much peace of mind which let me enjoy my trip . She went above and beyond with my elder dog. A god send! I would 100% recommended her .”
About: I'm a Certified Veterinary Assistant (CVA) with experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities.

Whether your pet needs walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or extra attention, I'll treat them like family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 910 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
