About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 10, going to neighbors’ houses and helping my mom with her Rover pet sitting. I graduated in 2024 as a certified veterinary technician, and started working at the clinic I completed my year long internship at. I love all animals and can’t wait to help you find the perfect sitter for your pet’s needs! I currently hold a full time position at an animal hospital. I interact with patients daily and am in charge of patient husbandry and clinical care. I have a fenced yard for your angels with plenty of room for zoomies, and copious space inside for hanging out or playing. Nightly cuddles available on request, or pets can be housed in a kennel in a separate room based on owner and pet preference.

About: I've have dogs and cats my whole life. I've had big dogs and small dogs and cats of all affection levels! At my previous job, I learned pet care is my passion. I want you (the owner) to have a great trip knowing you are leaving part of your family with someone who genuinely cares for them. I recently left a private pet sitting company due to a move so I can dedicate most of my day to your pets and work with your schedule. I pride myself on following feeding, potty, medicine, and all other instructions as accurately as I can! I understand that schedule changes in a pets routine can greatly affect them and want to minimize any and all anxieties for y'all.

About: I love animals so I will do my job at 110%. Before a walk I will find a route ahead of time So we can just get right to it. If I’m staying overnight at the house I’ll clean up a little while watching the dog(s) and I like to let the dogs out every few hours or so to make sure they don’t go to pee in the house. When I come and check up on an animal I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water. I’ve been taking care of my ridgeback and yorki for over 4 years so I’ve got big and little dog experience. If you have any unique pets I’ll still do check ups and walks if need be.

About: I grew up with dogs and now have two cats of my own, so caring for pets has always been a big part of my life. I know how much they mean to you, and I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities: playful, shy, or somewhere in between! I try to keep their routine as normal as possible. I have experience with feeding, walks, litter box care, and playtime, and I pay attention to the little things so your pet feels safe and cared for. I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely love spending time with animals. You can count on me to give your pet lots of care and attention! I’m currently on maternity leave and will soon be a stay-at-home mom while finishing my master’s in counseling, so I have a flexible schedule. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I’m able to give pets consistent attention, care, and check-ins throughout the day. I follow your pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and safe. I handle feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and any specific instructions. I give pets attention based on their personality and keep an eye out for any changes in behavior.

“I had an excellent experience with Maddy. From the start, communication was clear, prompt, and professional, which made me feel completely at ease while I was away. She took wonderful care of my two newly adopted cats, making sure all needs were met—from feeding and litter box cleaning to spending quality time playing. I really appreciated the photos, which showed just how happy my cats were in her care. It’s clear she takes her responsibility seriously. I came home to a content, well-cared-for pair of cats and a clean space. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Maddy again in the future. Highly recommended!”

FAQs for Cat Sitting - South Houston

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in South Houston is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 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 2,487 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across South Houston. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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. 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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in South Houston. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.

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.
