“We had such a great experience with Kira! Our dogs absolutely loved her. It was clear from the start that she genuinely cared about them and made sure they were comfortable, happy, and well cared for while we were away. She kept our home just as we left it - clean, organized, and respected our space fully. She was also communicative throughout the stay, sending us updates and checking in as needed, which gave us great peace of mind. We’re so grateful for her help! We will surely be booking her services again, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and caring sitter!”
“Suzy was truly so amazing with our pets. We haven’t seen our pets look this happy before while we’re gone than with anyone else! She was responsive, sent great updates, and our pets were thrilled.”
“Debbie has been amazing. We have used her many times and she always keeps me updated, sends photos so I know all is good and makes me feel so comfortable leaving our pup with her.”
“Irving was fabulous. We are RV'ing here in Texas for our granddaughters HS graduation and two weeks ago, lost our oldest dog, Maverick. Oliver, our five month old puppy hasn't been alone since his passing and we were concerned leaving him alone during the graduation ceremony. Irving was a last minute booking and we are so grateful he accepted our request. I couldnt be more pleased. Thank you Irving.”
“Elle always does such a great job, and tater's incision spot from the vet looks well healed and much better than when I left. Thank you for keeping an eye on him!!”
“Megan was absolutely awesome! My sister and I have labs, which are obviously high maintenance dogs, so we were hesitant in using rover, but MAN are we glad we met Megan! She tended to their every need & loved on them extra for us. She sent daily photos and updates and even did some cleaning up around our house (amazing right?!). I felt so safe and secure with leaving the dogs with her and will absolutely being going back to her when we both have to leave town again. Thanks for being the best, Megan!”
“Jacqueline helped keep our anxious pup at ease while we were out of town. Our dog got along with her so well and even ate for her (in the past, he's lost up to 15lbs being at boarding places). Jacqueline left our house probably cleaner than we did for her. We will be using her again for future home/pet-sitting.”
“Yes was awesome!! She updated me all the time and my babies were super happy with her, you could see it in their faces, they were more spoiled than normal! I will 1000% book with her again! Thank you so much!”
“Hailey was so great with our pup. She communicated clearly, was punctual and was super easy to work with. We will definitely be using her next time we need someone to watch Kato!”
“What a great and kind pet sitter. She communicated with us very well. Went out of her way for us and took care of our home while we were away. Most importantly it Did loved her. Highly recommend! We will be rebooking with her”
“This was our first time using Rover, and we absolutely loved having Darla come watch our golden boy and our kitty! We were super nervous, but she made us feel so calm and reassured! She sent regular updates with pictures and videos. Her communication was stellar and timely. We will definitely have her back again!”
About: I have grown up house/petsitting for neighbors and family friends, and I have trained every single dog my family has ever had. I am also very patient, and I am not afraid of cleaning up messes, dealing with crazy pets, or pets that will not listen. I currently am a student at Tarleton State, and most of my classes are mid-day, with gaps in between that I can stop by (if needed) to walk, take outside, or just play or take care of your pet. I am free all weekends that I am in town and available. For now, I do not offer care through my home, as I live in a dorm. Withs that being said, in your home, I will respect your rules, be there when I am supposed to, and always contact immediately if needed. As for care, I am stern, but also patient, and will keep your pet happy for my length of time with them.
“Victoria was great!! Really communicative and went the extra step to make sure our pup was happy- taking her on walks, and giving her attentions. She kept our house clean so when we came back from vacation we had nothing to worry about!”
“Ren was reliable and took great care of my pup, as well as the house. It's no wonder the team has great reviews and so many repeat bookings. I'm grateful...she got my kiddo through a severe storm, too, and Roo is afraid of storms. I had no worries. She was responsive, yet didn't overly communicate as I've had with other sitters.”

Erica was amazing! She looked after our pitbull mix Draco. She came and met him before to make sure he was ok with her. She was very kind, sat down and let him come to her. You could tell she had experience with dogs. She checked in on him and fed him throughout the day and sent regular pictures and even video. She was very responsive to my questions and made me feel at ease. We appreciate her giving him a chance and taking such good care.

FAQs for House Sitting - Serenada
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Serenada on Rover is $46.62 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 4,078 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Serenada. 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 Serenada 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 Serenada 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 Serenada 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.

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
