“Mahgony was a god send! She was excellent with our pups! She did an amazing job that put us at ease! Thank you a million times over for everything! We will be booking you again!💕”
About: I think what makes me different from other sitters is how much love and attention I give to every pet I care for! I’m super detail-oriented and always take the time to learn all about each pet’s unique quirks, favorite activities, and routines. I want them to feel right at home and totally spoiled while their owners are away! I'm reliable and love sending little updates with photos to keep everyone in the loop. You can relax knowing your furry friend is in good hands. My goal is to make sure both pets and their humans feel super happy and stress-free! Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine since I'm home all day, except for a few hours on Tuesdays and Thursdays when I have class at UTEP. I make sure pets are never left alone for long, and I always prioritize their needs. Whether it's feeding, playing, or just giving them lots of love and attention, I’m always available to give them the care they deserve. Even when I'm out for those few hours, I make sure they have everything they need, so they’re never without company or comfort! In my home, I have two dogs and a cat, and they all get along really well! I make sure that all the pets feel comfortable and loved. I keep their routines consistent, whether it's feeding, walks, or playtime. For my clients' pets, I treat them like they're part of my family. I make sure to follow any specific instructions their owners have given, and I create a safe and loving environment. Whether the pets are in my home or theirs, I always focus on providing plenty of attention, exercise, and care so they feel happy and secure!
“Stephanie was the best sitter I’ve ever worked with! She was excellent with my two pups and my three cats. She updated and kept me posted, and treated my babies like they where hers. You cannot go wrong with hiring her! If I could give her 10 stars I would :)”
“Karla was absolutely amazing with our large and energetic dogs! She is incredibly caring, attentive, experienced and organized. She followed all instructions closely, sent extensive and consistent updates, and generally went above and beyond to ensure everyone’s comfort. Very grateful to her and her husband for their time and love, and for being the absolute BEST in business!”
“Gisela did an excellent job with our fur babies. She provided good communication with pictures and updates. She really set us at ease, it was our first time using Rover and our first time leaving our puppy, but Gisela went above and beyond in caring for our fur babies. Thank you so much Gisela for everything.”
“Natalie was absolutely great! My Bambi has separation anxiety and was very comfortable staying with Natalie. We had my brother in laws funeral services and we needed someone to come to our home and stay with Bambi while we attend the services. Natalie accommodated the hours and time that we needed. I would definitely recommend and rebook Natalie.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. She was absolutely wonderful with our boys: patient, kind, and clearly someone who genuinely cares. She went over and above in every way, and we had zero stress while we were away because we knew they were in great hands. She sent pictures every day and kept us completely in the loop, which made everything feel easy and worry‑free. We’re really grateful for the care she gave them and would book with her again without hesitation.”

About: I have always loved being around animals as they bring so much joy. I have had pet dogs ever since I was born and have grown a very strong attachment to making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. I make sure every pet is treated as family. I bring energy and enjoy going on walks/runs, having fun during playtime and even enjoy cozy moments with shy pets, a good book, and quiet companionship. Happy to adjust to each pets unique routine and behavior! I work a part-time job working in the medical field and make time for dedicated walks, drop-ins, and sitting.

“Alexandra did a great job with my girls. She gave updates, photos and videos of their time together. She took care of my home and made me feel like the girls and my house were in great hands for the weekend. I’d highly recommend her and will definitely use her again.”
About: Hi there! If you're looking for someone who genuinely loves dogs, you've found them! Caring for pups is something I truly enjoy. As a stay-at-home mom, I'm available every day of the week to give your dog plenty of attention. At my home your dog will have tons of room to run around in our big, fenced backyard. All dogs are treated with love, cuddles and care 🐾 and are always allowed to roam freely. We also go on walks pretty regularly. My friendly golden retriever, Adley, is super social and loves making new buddies. We're a family with children who understand doggy boundaries but also enjoy some gentle interaction. I'm happy to cater to dogs who might be a little skittish and need a calm patient approach, as well as those who simply enjoy to just lounge and hang out! ♥️ I also have experience caring for dogs with medical needs, including administering medication (even for pups with conditions like cancer), so you can trust your pups will be well taken care of. 🐾 Please note that for the safety and comfort of all our guests, I am unable to accept dogs with a history of aggression. Puppies who aren’t fully potty-trained, a crate will be required for their stay to ensure a comfortable and accident-free environment for everyone. (Please note they are only crated for bedtime or if I need to leave the house for a quick errand) I look forward to meeting your awesome dog! 🐾🐾🐾 🚨To make sure your dog gets just the right amount of food, please provide clear instructions on how much to feed at each meal (example: 1 cup twice a day). This is super important for your dog's health and helps avoid any issues or misunderstandings for both of us. If you pre-portion the food, that's great too! 🦮 Important note regarding dog walks : I love to provide walks for your babies. Walks depend on the weather but are given every day. If it is too hot during the day expect a walk given in the evening/night time. Please note for the safety and the best experience I cannot accommodate dogs who consistently pull excessively on the leash. If significantly pulling occurs during a walk, I will discontinue that part of my service and focus on other alternatives of exercise such as (outdoor play or indoor stimulation) Being a stay-at-home mom allows me to be very flexible with pet care. Your dog's needs will be integrated into our daily flow, whether it's adjusting walk times or providing consistent attention. 🐾😊 When your dog stays with me, they're welcomed into our daily life. This includes playtime in our backyard, regular walks, and a cozy spot inside where they can feel at home and get the attention they need. Please know that I prioritize your dog's safety and comfort; they will never be left outside unattended if the weather is too hot or too cold.
“She was absolutely amazing with my girls & little guy. They’re (girls) both skittish of people, but they both warmed up to her really well. She notified me of when our power went out & helped keep our fur babies comfy & cool until it was fixed!”
About: I have had and taken care of animals since i can remember ! My family and i would frequently foster dogs and help find them homes. I love anything pet related even if it means getting down and dirty. I now own cats and love and care for them like my children. I am currently unemployed. I only do volunteering in the mornings, however if your pets needs care the morning I can adjust my schedule. Wednesday afternoons and Sunday morning are a little harder to work around due to church but if needed we can work something together ! I can create a calm and loving environment for your pets. I am happily willing to meet any needs and care that your pets need.
About: I have a schnauzer/ terrier mix. Love my dog, I care about animals just like you do! Teach me how to take care of yours! I am currently on the job market, so I have lots of free time to take care of those fur babies! Love them all haha. I respect boundaries and limitations, especially at someone’s house, I work well with animals because they’re easier to babysit, not as unpredictable as humans haha.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sparks
Alexis is absolutely incredible! She visited our home three times a day to feed and walk our Great Dane and Weimaraner mix, Harley. Since Harley is a large breed mix, finding someone comfortable and capable of managing her can be a challenge, but Alexis handled everything flawlessly.Knowing that Alexis is a zookeeper gave us immense peace of mind. Her professional care and expertise were evident from day one, and we felt complete confidence leaving Harley in her hands. She was incredibly reliable and constantly sent us pictures and videos, which completely put our minds at ease while we were away. It was clear Harley loved her time with Alexis! We cannot recommend her highly enough and will definitely be booking her again.
Toi was amazing in taking care of my babies. She made a babies feel extra special while I was gone. She would text me and send pictures to reassure me that my babies were doing well. Plus reassured me that my babies were in good hands. She also enjoyed spending time with my babies. I most definitely will be requesting her to take care of Molly and Ellie again. She also washed Molly’s and Ellie’s dishes for me and put the trash out for me.
We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. She was absolutely wonderful with our boys: patient, kind, and clearly someone who genuinely cares. She went over and above in every way, and we had zero stress while we were away because we knew they were in great hands. She sent pictures every day and kept us completely in the loop, which made everything feel easy and worry‑free. We’re really grateful for the care she gave them and would book with her again without hesitation.
Tessa was easy to communicate with, and she always responded in a timely manner. We received updates throughout the day on our babies, and she even messaged when she had a question about something. We were able to enjoy our mini-vacation with zero worries about our fur babies, whom we had to leave at home. We will definitely book with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Sparks on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 296 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sparks. 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 Sparks 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 Sparks 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 Sparks 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Sparks. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
