About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life since childhood, and I currently take care of my two dogs and my cat. I love teaching dogs tricks, giving calmer pets cuddles and attention, and running around with active pets! I am a commuter student with mostly online classes, so I have lots of free time. I’m available Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays anytime before 6:00 p.m.; Tuesdays and Thursdays from 1 to 6:00 p.m.; and my weekends are available by request, feel free to message me! I will follow your pet’s routine as much as I can for drop-ins. I can handle feeding them, bathroom breaks, litter box scooping for cats, and of course giving them attention! I will attempt to handle their medication if needed, based off instructions and experience required I will be honest about whether or not I can fulfill that requirement. For dog walks, I will keep their pace and secure them on their leash accordingly.

About: Fur babies have always been a part of my family, even before I was born. I’ve always had a deep love for them and genuinely enjoy caring for them. That bond is especially strong with my fur baby, Mazi, who currently lives with her grandmother. I work from home and am available for bookings with at least 48 hours’ notice prior to the requested start date and time. I am also available on weekends and can offer flexibility to accommodate your schedule when needed. I reside in a gated apartment community that features a designated dog park and multiple walking areas, providing a safe and enjoyable environment for outdoor time, exercise, and fresh air. Inside my home, there is ample space for your pet to move freely and play comfortably. I do not use crates or indoor confinement unless specifically requested by the owner.
“She was amazing! I booked a quick 30‑minute drop-in and she went out of her way to walk both of my dogs individually. She was super sweet, patient, and my pups absolutely loved her. I’m so grateful for the extra care — we’ll definitely be booking again!”

About: I provide loving, attentive, and dependable care for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every dog with patience, kindness, and genuine affection. I am attentive to each pet's individual needs, including feeding schedules, daily walks, playtime, companionship, and maintaining a safe and comfortable environment. I am available before and after work hours. I have a 9-4 job however I am available before this times and after work. I can walk or let out to the back yard within times available during the day. I can walk or let out the pets when needed my adult son also lives with me and he is home when Im not home. Pets will always be accompanied by an adult while in the house.

About: I’ve had the joy of having pets all my life. I’ve always had a passion for saving animals who were displaced or hurt. I currently have a cat and a dog who I adopted as rescue animals when they were young. I have experience with all sizes and ages of animals. I have lots of energy and enjoy walking dogs, taking them to dog parks, and giving them all my attention. The love I have received from animals makes my heart soar and feel it’s a gift that I’ve been entrusted with receiving. I’d appreciate the opportunity to be in your pets life as their caregiver when you are unable to be there. I’m currently working part-time with a flexible schedule so I have plenty of availability to take care of your furry family member(s). I’m available usually any day of the week for drop-ins and walks. I walk my dog every day in my neighborhood plus we have a backyard where we go to play to get some energy out. I have many toys and treats for both my animals to keep them stimulated. We like fetch - both the dog and the cat enjoy playing. My cat will catch toys in the air and bring them to me! He loves attention and playtime. I make sure there is always food and water available and treats when they do something great, or cute ;) While taking care of your pet, we could do any of that. I do like to let the dog choose how much energy they can give so I don’t over due it. I’ll need your guidance on what your dog likes best and how I can give them the best care to meet their needs.
About: Dogs have been a part of my entire life. I've been sitting for friends and family over the last 6 years and have really enjoyed it. I am currently unemployed and available. I don't have much on my schedule and can devote all my time and attention to a dog sitting job. I will care for them just like my own. Will follow the routine and rules for the pets. Happy to have them sleep with me in the bed, etc.
“Fantastic sitter! They took great care of our two dogs and kept us updated throughout their stay. Our pups were happy, well cared for, and clearly received lots of attention. We felt completely at ease while away and would gladly book with them again. Highly recommend!”

About: Look no further for your pet’s new favorite friend! My personal philosophy about pet care is that just like humans, each animal has their own personality and requires unique attention. With over four years of private boarding experience, I strive to make sure pet care in my home looks just like it does in yours. So if your pet has a routine you like to follow, I can do that! After years of volunteering with the SPCA, I’ve cared for all manner of dogs. Your pet will be in great hands. With me, your dog can expect the following amenities: - Warm cuddles on demand - Premium satisfying scratches (my specialty is behind the ear 😉) - Live HD 4k squirrel-viewing from my large backyard glass sliding door 🐿️ (we get tons of squirrel traffic!) - Unlimited in-and-out privileges - Brisk walks and lively fetch sessions - Relaxing sunbathing in our many sun spots around the house Your dog will feel right at home! Since I’m at home most of the day, your four-legged family member will be given lots of attention. I’m able to closely monitor them and ensure they get ample individual care. I have a fenced yard and no children in the house, so your pet will have full range of my home. They can go outside as often as they’d like.

About: I have over two years of hands-on experience working at a busy doggy daycare and boarding facility, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My responsibilities included supervising group play, ensuring a safe and clean environment, feeding, administering basic care, and closely monitoring each dog’s behavior and well-being. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. In addition to my daycare experience, I also provide housesitting services for some of my regular clients, giving their pets personalized, one-on-one care in a familiar environment. I’m comfortable handling multiple dogs at once, recognizing body language and signs of stress, and making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and am happy to accommodate boarding requests at any time, as long as there’s clear communication and some flexibility around my school schedule. I appreciate advance notice so I can plan accordingly and give your pet the best care possible. For dog walking, I’m currently available after 2:00 PM each day until May 7. After that date, I’ll have open availability, as long as bookings are made ahead of time. When I’m house sitting, my goal is to keep your dog’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible while you’re away. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water at all times, and get plenty of exercise, whether that’s walks, playtime, or just being outside. I also spend quality time with them so they feel comfortable and not alone—this includes attention, affection, and sticking to any routines they’re used to. I’m very attentive to their behavior and will let you know right away if anything seems off. I respect your home and keep everything clean and organized while you’re away. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Whitney helped me out last minute dropping in on my dogs. I fully trust her with my high energy dog and my older lazy dog too! The dogs always seem happy when I get home. Thanks again Whitney!”
About: I’ve always had a love for animals and enjoy making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I’m happy to provide feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles, and regular check-ins while treating every pet like my own. 2 walks per day since I do have a full time job. 30mins in the morning and 30mins in the evening. Days I work from home they get 3 walks 15mins in the afternoon and 30mins in the morning and evening I have a dog of my own therefore I only board 1 dog + mines at a time. Your fur baby will have someone to play with throughout the day plenty of treats and toys and no crates(unless necessary). They can roam around freely.
About: I offer personalized care for dogs of all ages, with experience in puppies for a year . Your pet will receive attention, patience, and love. Pet care fits into my routine from Tuesday through Wednesday after 12 PM by including scheduled feedings, walks, grooming, playtime, and attention to hygiene and bonding. I care for pets by ensuring they are fed on schedule, walked regularly, given playtime, grooming, and plenty of affection. I maintain clean, safe environments.
About: I’ve loved animals my entire life, and have volunteered at my local animal shelter from ages nine to fifteen. I only left because of school and the need to get a job. I then worked at a grooming and boarding facility for almost three years. Now I work at an animal clinic as a kennel assistant for our boarding pets. I currently work full-time Monday through Friday with on and off again weekends, but have plenty of free time on the days I work a half day. On the days I work doubles however, I’d only have time to stop by somewhere near work as I only get an hour break. Otherwise, I’m free after 1pm or 6pm on certain days, or before I go in at 1pm. That can be discussed in more detail when required. As someone who has worked with many different boarding pets throughout the years I do believe taking care of pets in your own home will add more comfort to them as well as yourself. It’s easier to care for them on a schedule they are familiar with while in a space they know and love. I always treat them as if they are my own because I know I’d wish the same for my fur babies if I ever had someone watch over them.
“We had a great experience with Sedra! She is reliable, trustworthy, and took excellent care of our dog while we were away for six days. She made sure he was fed, played with him, and gave him lots of attention he clearly liked her and felt comfortable around her. She was also very communicative throughout the entire time, which gave us peace of mind. We would definitely trust her to watch our dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.”

About: Hello my name is Camila or cami I would like to share a bit of my experience with the animals I have/had taken care of throughout my years of living. Starting off strong I have only ever rescued/homed/adopted all of my animals including smaller critters such as rodents, birds, frogs, and reptiles. I also have experience in walking dogs for families and friends this being dogs that are big as a Labrador and small as a Yorkie. My first interaction with rescuing an animal was when I was 5 with my first dog Bouncie. She was a poodle/shnauzer mix and we found her in an abandoned apartment’s back patio that was locked. Seeing her limped right leg we immediately took her to a clinic and we neutered, chipped, bathed, and took her to get her vaccines as well as getting her medicated. She lived for a very long 14 years and unfortunately had to be put down after two failing attempts of removing a tumor in her stomach that was the size of a tennis ball. Though heartbreaking it made me understand and motivated my care for animals not just dogs but also any defenseless critter. Present time I now have two dogs, Corey who just turned 5 this year and Joy who will be turning 14 and two cats, Gert who is a 1 year and Mila who also turned 5 this year. Overall I take the care and love for animals very seriously as they are just like children they need attention and plenty of love as well as care. I hope to be considered as someone who can be trusted with their babies when and if needed! I am always on my feet with our animals even with my husband. I make sure to walk our dogs for at least 30-45 minutes twice to three times in the day depending on what our schedule is looking like. Feeding proper amounts of food and following diet restrictions since one of our pups is having tummy troubles and is taking medication. This is an everyday routine that both me and my husband do and enjoy doing. When going into a clients home and needing to feed, walk, or simply play I make sure to follow instructions without disrupting the actual house of the individual. Respecting the place is the main key and making sure to not invade but also communicating with the client. There can definitely be moments where something might be confusing so becoming approachable is important to establish proper care for the clients pets. As for the care I provide for my pets it’s the same minus being in someone else’s home. The type of care and respect I give to my animals in my home is the exact same care and respect I would want anyone I am not close with to give to my home and pets.This means maintaining and cleaning the main areas where they play, eat, sleep, and do their business.

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!

JaQuia was absolutely amazing with my dog! From start to finish, her communication was excellent, keeping me updated and giving me complete peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear that she has a genuine passion for dogs and truly cares about their well-being. My dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. I highly recommend JaQuia to anyone looking for a reliable, professional, and caring sitter through Rover. We will definitely be booking with her again! 🐾

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!"

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Sugar Land 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 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 Meet & Greet.
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.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
