About: I absolutely love animals! I'm patient, caring, and understanding, and I believe every pet deserves compassion and kindness. I have a special place in my heart for rescue pets because every animal has their own unique story. Being attentive, patient, and making your pet feel safe and loved is always my priority.

About: I grew up in Cameroon in a home where animals were always part of daily life. Throughout my childhood, my family cared for multiple pets at a time, including dogs and cats, and I also spent time around many other animals through regular visits to our family farm. Being around animals from a young age taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to understand different pet personalities and comfort levels. I genuinely enjoy caring for animals and making sure they feel safe, calm, and well looked after. As a nursing student, I’m also very detail-oriented, responsible, and comfortable following routines and instructions carefully. I understand how important trust and communication are when someone is caring for your pet, and I always aim to provide dependable and compassionate care. I am currently a student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable pet care on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and weekends. I am also available for drop-in visits in the mornings and afternoons, depending on the booking, and I can accommodate many same-day requests based on availability. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure each visit includes feeding, playtime, and attentive care. I also aim to provide timely updates and clear communication so pet owners feel comfortable and informed while their pets are in my care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and safety preferences. I always make sure pets are secure before entering or leaving the home and provide updates so owners feel informed and reassured. I understand the importance of patience, attentiveness, and maintaining a clean and calm environment. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away.
“Stephanie took great care of my cats during a recent trip! I appreciated her looking into their profiles before we even met, asking questions when needed, and figuring out a different way to medicate one of the kitties when he gave her a hard time at first. Timely drop-ins and cute photos also helped! My partner and I came home to the apartment looking exactly like we’d left it and chill, well-cared-for kitties who’d been lacking nothing but their humans.”
“Jazlynn was absolutely amazing. I opted for the drop-in visits. She stopped by the house twice a day and took care of my 160 Cane Corso. She was punctual and communication was exceptional. Well done ma’am.”

“Alejandra took great care of my pups when I had to go out of town and couldn't take them. She stayed with them for the full time, cleaned up after them and administered meds for my senior dog. I highly recommend her and will be using her again.”
“Amanda was absolutely wonderful! I felt very comfortable leaving my dogs in her care, and I truly appreciated her accommodating my last minute request. I feel very lucky that she was available. I highly recommend her, and I will definitely be requesting her services again in the future!”

“Absolutely amazing. She did everything I asked, and then some. All of my crazy crew of my little dachshunds absolutely loved her. Definitely will be rehiring her again.”

“She was wonderful taking care of our two fur babies. She was great with communication. My husband and I were able to have a nice comfortable getaway and know that our fur babies were well taken care of. Will definitely use Maddy again”

About: Hi! I’m Darlene. A little into my personal life: -I’m 30 years old. -SHSU Alumna 🧡💙🤍 -Vet Tech for 6 years -I have two dogs: Marley, my senior boy. He’s 16 years old and doesn’t seem to have much thoughts lol but he’s still trucking along. It’s his world, we’re just living in it. Yumi, my 6 year old girl. We like to call her the sweetest, most beautiful bby in the entire world. She’s a sweet heart and is a proud member of the lamb chop cult. Both of my dogs are adopted from shelters. 🐾💛 -My hobbies are reading, watching horror movies, playing my ninendo switch, and spending time with my husband/dogs. I look forward to meeting you and your fur-babies. 🐾 I currently work full-time as a vet tech. I usually work 4x10’s and I’m off on the weekends. I like to be as transparent as possible with you, and I do my best to try and leave for lunch and give your babies a potty break, but it’s not always a guarantee, given the nature of my job. I really try not to disrupt their routine while you’re away and I will love on them and care for them like they’re my own. Every dog/cat deserves that & I’m very big on cuddles and sending photos with updates!
“Shelby is very nice. Fred took to her very quickly. Shelby is very kind, gentle and relaxed, but always vigilant watching him as he played in the yard. I highly recommend her and she will be watching Fred on a weekly basis and then daily basis.”

“Deanna watched our cats while we were gone for a week and she gave us peace of mind. This was not an easy job with aging pets. She kept our home clean, sent many sweet photos and videos and made sure things ran smoothly. Thank you Deanna!”

About: Hi! I’m Emily, I have worked with animals for 6 years. I had worked at an animal shelter as a trainer, moving on to a board and train facility. Afterwards, I dabbled into pet grooming and now I am a vet tech! I wanted to share that I'm currently working from home. I'm available every day during the week, and I try to balance my work with an active lifestyle. It's important for me to stay engaged and maintain a healthy routine while caring for animals and pets. I currently reside in a welcoming motel that offers a safe and spacious outdoor area where dogs can enjoy some fresh air on a leash. I understand how important it is for dogs to feel comfortable, so I also take my time to visit sniff spots if needed. Inside my room, I create a stress-free atmosphere that’s quite roomy, with my two dogs who are crate trained, ready to provide a calming presence for other dogs that might feel a bit anxious around others. My goal is to ensure that every dog feels secure and at ease during their stay.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs whether it’s going on walks or dog sitting. I even have my own dog that I’ve had for 8 years now. I do have a full time job but I have free time for Friday-Sunday even during the week after work. If it’s Monday-Thursday I can do it after 6pm I don’t mind dog sitting at your home if needed. I wouldn’t be able to bring them to my home since I live in an apartment.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in South Houston on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 2,493 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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 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.
