Our first time being away for a whole work day while our pup was at home. So glad we were able to manage two check ins so that our boy can get out potty and play. Wout gets so excited every time they come.

Sydney did a fantastic job looking after my dog and three cats for an extended period. She was very prompt on the visits, was good about providing photos of the animals, and was very good with communications, either asking when she had questions or responding to my queries. I will definitely consider using her services again, next time I travel.

About: I’ve taken care of pets of all kinds since I was a teenager. Dogs, cats, rodents, reptiles. I’ve worked in veterinary clinics, so I know how to care for seniors as well as special needs pets. I can also administer medications as needed. I work early mornings until 3pm, so I am available late afternoon and all evening to care for your babies. I’m available all day Friday and Saturday. I would prefer to care for your pet at your home. But I’m willing to make exceptions for small dogs to have them stay in my home. They would be crated while I am away.

About: I've loved and cared for dogs for most of my life and understand that every pet deserves patience, attention, and lots of love. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their dogs while they're away, including feeding, walking, playtime, maintaining their daily routines, and providing companionship. I've also cared for dogs that needed extra attention, closely monitoring their health and keeping their owners updated throughout their stay. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to provide a safe, calm, and loving environment so you can travel with peace of mind. I work full-time during the weekdays, but I have flexibility to provide attentive care before and after work, as well as evenings, weekends, and holidays. I make pet care a priority and will ensure your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection while you're away. I'll also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I take the time to learn what makes them feel comfortable and secure. Whether caring for your pet in your home or mine (if applicable), I'll follow your instructions carefully, maintain a clean and safe environment, and treat your pet with the same love and attention I'd give my own. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet.

About: I’ve spent a lot of time working with dogs of all personalities, ages, and energy levels. I’m big on patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement, and I naturally help dogs settle into a calm, comfortable routine while they’re here. I pay close attention to their body language and cues, which helps me understand what they need to feel safe and relaxed. Whether your dog is playful, shy, energetic, senior, or still learning a few manners, I provide a structured but loving environment that helps them feel right at home. Pet care is a natural and consistent part of my daily and weekly routine, especially since I work from home. Being home allows me to maintain a structured schedule that includes regular feeding times, fresh water, daily walks, and intentional play sessions to keep your pet physically active and mentally stimulated. I’m able to provide consistent supervision, quick potty breaks, and ongoing attention throughout the day, rather than leaving them alone for long periods. Throughout the week, I also stay on top of grooming, maintaining a clean and safe environment, and scheduling any necessary one-on-one time. Caring for your pet is a responsibility I genuinely value, and working from home allows me to give them the time, structure, and attention they deserve. I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets are treated like family. Since I work from home, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, playtime, and bathroom breaks throughout the day. A typical day includes walks, feeding on your preferred schedule, outdoor time, enrichment activities, cuddle time, and regular updates so owners always feel connected and comfortable while away. My home is clean, spacious, and pet-friendly with plenty of room to relax and play. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, energy level, and routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. I also provide complimentary high-quality treats along with fresh protein toppers such as salmon, chicken, turkey, and lean cuts of beef that can be mixed with their kibble for an extra healthy and enjoyable mealtime experience. Whether your pet is active and playful or calm and laid back, they’ll receive personalized care, patience, affection, and lots of love during their stay.

Joanna was amazing to work with! From the moment we met, I trusted her to come in my home and care for my sweet puppy. She is experienced and knows what she is doing, and I felt very comfortable with her. She is prompt, easy to communicate with and really cared for my dog. She will be my first phone call in the future!

About: I raised two wonderful, well adjusted, obedient Chows (at the same time, I know) with discipline, boundaries and consistency; and of course, my absolute love for animals. I am comfortable around animals and respect them. Animals all have their own unique selves and I take the time and effort to get to know and understand that unique self. I currently work full time in the Galleria area and live in Missouri City, but I have time and want to spend it with your pet. We have a fenced in yard. Our dog pretty much only wants to go out when he needs to because he is elderly. He's a terrier, so he fancies himself the boss of us. He is the boss of my dad (he is technically my father's dog), but he knows I don't indulge in his high jinks. He's a rascal.

I cannot recommend Paul enough! Watching my older pug, Baillee, with special needs was no easy task, but Paul was absolutely fantastic. He was patient, attentive, and followed every detail of her care perfectly. Getting daily photos and sweet updates put my mind at ease while I was away. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pug! If you need a sitter who truly loves and understands senior dogs, look no further!"

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for dogs. I’ve cared for dogs my entire life, from raising puppies to caring for them into their senior years. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, and I enjoy giving them the love, patience, attention, and care they deserve. Whether your dog is young, old, big, or small, I’ll treat them like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I truly enjoy spending time with dogs. When I’m not at work, I love being active, going on walks, playing, and giving dogs the attention they deserve. I don’t have a dog of my own right now because I’m waiting until I can give one everything it deserves, so being able to care for other people’s dogs is something I genuinely look forward to. I love the companionship dogs bring, and I’ll make sure your pup feels loved, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or in yours, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with them, giving them plenty of affection, sticking to their normal feeding routine, and rewarding them with treats (with your permission!). I love talking to them, cuddling with them, and making them feel like they have a best friend while you’re away. I’ll always treat your dog with the same love, patience, and care I’d give my own.

About: I have owned cats, small/medium sized dogs and even rabbits! I have an understanding for their needs (having taken care of medically complicated pets before) and enjoy giving them the love/attention they deserve I’m currently a student so I have a flexible schedule. Afternoons and evenings are easiest for me. I am also able to do early visits (prior to 7am). I preferably work in the Sugar Land and surrounding area. I have always enjoyed spending time with animals, I always try my best to accommodate to their needs and schedule. I have experience working with animals who have medical needs and am always punctual with medication dispersal.

About: What sets me apart is my deep, intuitive connection with animals and my lifelong experience caring for them. I specialize in senior pet care, offering gentle attention and patience, and I’m comfortable administering medication or following special routines. I also have experience with puppies and high-energy pets, helping reinforce positive habits through calm consistency. More than anything, I treat every animal as if they were my own—with love, respect, and care tailored to their unique personality. Caring for animals is a natural part of my daily routine—I genuinely enjoy building it into my schedule. Whether it’s early morning feedings, midday walks, or evening check-ins, I plan my day around giving pets the time and attention they deserve. It doesn’t feel like work—it feels like purpose. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s routine closely to ensure consistency and comfort—feeding, walking, playtime, and medications as needed. I create a calm, respectful environment, keeping things clean, secure, and stress-free. If I care for pets in my home, I provide a cozy, pet-safe space with lots of love, supervision, and tailored attention to help them feel right at home.

About: I have had cats and dogs my whole life! With the occasional reptile and exotic animal as well. I believe everyone needs an animal friend!

Gabby was absolutely great! It's tough leaving my pets home while away on vacation, but knowing they were in Gabby's care let me relax. I felt like I asked a lot of her, but she didn't complain or protest and always seemed happy to make sure my babies were cared for.

I would 100% recommend Kaitlyn B. She met and exceeded all of our expectations. She was very personable and easy to communicate with and gave us peace of mind that our dogs were in good hands while we were away. A bonus that made me smile was her daily updates that showed she was paying close attn to our dogs- she really captured each of their personalities and habits. I hope she is available next time we go out of town!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Stafford on Rover is $26.75 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 5,721 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Stafford. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Stafford stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Stafford 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!

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 dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Stafford with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 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.
