About: I've always been an animal lover at heart, and I truly believe pets are family. 💙 Whether it's my own fur babies or caring for friends' and family's pets, I pour that same love and attention into every moment. I'm great with routines and will make sure your pet stays on track—because consistency means comfort. Their trust means the world to me, and I’m so happy to be there for them. 🐾 I’m currently working in a position where I can make my own schedule. I will mostly be available all day on weekends and some weekday afternoons. I have a secure, fenced yard and a sweet dog who loves making new furry friends—perfect company if you're looking for a comfortable boarding spot. 🐶 If your pup follows a feeding or walking routine, I’ll stick to it like clockwork. Just let me know what works best for your pet, and I’ll make sure they feel right at home. 🏡
“Kaitlyn did a very good job with my dogs. She arrived on time and showed a lot of attention to BoJo who is an attention hog. She was also able to handle Mable who is very energetic with ease. I highly recommend Kailyn to take very good care of your pets and will be using her again in the future.”
“It was my first time using Rover and actually first time leaving my dog in the hands of a stranger. Natalie was so awesome and took such good care of our doberman Murphy. She maintain great communication throughout and even with the couple hiccups we ran into like our door pad not working, she worked with me on a solution. She was so patient and understanding. I highly recommend her!”
“Crystal did an amazing job. My cat was so happy and never felt alone. She was well-fed and taken care of beautifully. I even received a couple of photos, which I really appreciated. Crystal also kept me updated, letting me know when she was on her way and when she arrived. When took care my girl. Thank you so much Crystal. You did amazing. Can’t wait work with you again.”
“Jenny has been checking on my dog for a while now. We use her regularly. Dax loves to see her, and I always get great pictures of him. She does a great job taking care of Dax! I would recommend!”
About: I cared for my beloved cat, MiMi, for 21 wonderful years, from his playful kitten days to his senior years. He passed away 2 years ago, and I do miss him every day. When he was still with me, I made sure he had food and water, a clean box, plenty of playtime and cuddles, regular vet visits. I also have experience of caring for my friend's cat. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member to someone else, and I'm committed to giving your fur baby the same care and affection I gave my own. I am available on weekdays, and my schedule is flexible. Please text me and we can discuss what time suits you. Thank you very much. To care for the fur babies, I will follow the instructions from the pet owner. I will play with fur babies to ease their loneliness while their owners are not around.
“Jillian was great with our animals, they warmed up to her really quick! We are very protective and have anxiety about leaving our animals with anyone and she made us feel very comfortable about trusting her to take care of them. We even had an issue with our AC and she messaged us right away to let us know and thankfully we were able to fix the issue but without Jillian who knows what would have happened. Thank you again Jillian, we would definitely reach out to you again for any future trips!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly love spending time with them! As the proud owner of two cats and a Husky, I know that every pet has their own unique personality and deserves lots of love, patience, and attention. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, or sticking to their daily routine, I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and my goal is to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your pets and give them the care they deserve! I have a flexible schedule and love making time for pets! Whether your furry friend needs a walk, a drop-in visit, playtime, or lots of attention while you’re away, I’ll be there to provide reliable, loving care. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine so they stay comfortable, happy, and stress-free. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how they’re doing. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they receive the care they’re used to. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, medication (if needed and instructed), or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I give my own. You can count on regular updates and photos for peace of mind while you’re away.
“Katie and Robert are just amazing. They treated our pet and home like theirs and they even went above and beyond during Hurricane Beryl to make sure our Pepper is taken care of and stocked with her food while we were out of the country and the hurricane is about to hit. They even came right after the storm to make sure she was ok and even checked on the house. We can’t thank them enough for the love they showed to our little cat and care to our house for three weeks. We will definitely hire them again, and fully recommend them!! Much appreciate! Thank you Katie and Robert you were a blessing to us.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I provided dedicated senior care for my chocolate Labrador, Copper, who lived to the incredible age of 18. Today, I have two pit bull mixes that join me on hiking adventures throughout the year, and I even harness-trained my kitten for outdoor adventures. I treat every pet like family and understand that each has their own unique personality, needs, and routine. Whether they're energetic or need a little extra care, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I am currently a wedding photographer in off season and have pretty good availability during the week for pet sitting. I typically work weekends but with enough notice and special occasions I'm flexible. I have one high energy dog and one older dog. So daily walks are a must. Sometimes separate and sometimes together. Our walks are typically 1 to 2 miles. I have two friendly dogs at home but I do have smaller home and a husband with allergies. So in my own home would probably be a case by case basis. As for other people's home's I'm flexible and respectful of house rules.
“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: I have been taking care of dogs over 10+ years! From family dogs to working at two pet resorts as well! My experience with dogs range from Pomeranians to pitbulls and cane Corsos! I have watched single dogs to managing packs of dogs as well (5+), and while maintaining a fun and relaxed environment for dogs, but also a safe environment! I will be busy with class in from 11-3:30, but can walk dogs before or after then! I am completely free on the weekends as well! And it varies per day on my availability (depending on the time of my class, I might get out earlier!) In my clients home, I will feed, bathe, and take the dog(s) on walks, following their schedule the owner provides! I will make sure no harmful food or toys are out as well, providing a fun and safe environment for the dog(s)!
“Alex was AWESOME watching Chance and Cooper for the first time. I will definitely be using him again in the near future. He was very communicative, assertive to their needs and kept me informed about everything. Overall such a great guy!”
About: I’ve always loved animals and enjoy caring for pets of all personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, and providing companionship. I strive to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits well into my routine, and I make time to provide reliable, attentive care. I communicate clearly, follow instructions carefully, and work to ensure pets stay comfortable and maintain their normal routines while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I follow all care instructions closely, pay attention to each pet’s needs, and provide a calm, caring environment. I understand the importance of trust and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

We couldn’t be happier with the care our dogs received! Mad was a great communicator throughout the entire time she watched them, sending updates and photos that put our minds completely at ease. We highly recommend her to anyone who needs someone reliable and caring for their fur babies!

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! 🐾

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 5,612 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Sugar Land. 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 Sugar Land 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Sugar Land. On Rover:
- 93% 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.
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.
