“Maggie did a couple of drop in visits to begin with and then 18 days at our home with our 14 year old dog. Our little Marcie took to Maggie quickly and was well cared for during that time, as were the house, yard and the various wild creatures and planter plants that Maggie provided water to. Maggie was devoted to Marcie's routine and provided great updates everyday. Communication with Maggie was excellent. We found Maggie to be dependable, punctual, tidy and careful in our home. She clearly loves animals and is a great fit for the work she does.”
“Sara did a great job; she is a great communicator. She sent us pictures of our pups while we were gone, and we returned home to a clean house, calm, well-taken-care-of dogs. We were super happy that we chose her. I hope she will watch our dogs again for us in the future. Thank you Sara!”
“This was our first time using Hannah to watch our two golden retrievers and we’re are so happy we found her!! Our pups absolutely love her, she sent us updates and even went out to get their favorite treat, bananas, when she ran out!! We will definitely be calling on her again to watch our fur babies❤️ thank you Hannah!!”
“Melanie was amazing with my 3 herding dogs and two cats. I came home to extremely happy animals and the house exactly how I left it. Will definitely book her in the future!”
“Cassandra was amazing!!!! She always kept me updated with Lily’s daily activities/playtime and sent lots of adorable pictures. I had a last minute travel emergency and she stepped up to the plate and was completely understanding. I would recommend her to any pet owner. She has a lovely personality, funny, trustworthy from the start, and an absolute sweetheart! She took great care of my home, and I could tell with every video/photo that Lily adored her and her husband.”
“Selina was great with Cooper! She gave him 100ml of IV subcutaneous fluids daily. She’s dependable and sent pictures while we were gone! Definitely will use her again!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was little and have experience with dogs, cats, and birds. Over the years, friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to look after their pets, and I take pride in providing attentive and loving care. I enjoy making sure every animal feels safe, happy, and well-cared for while their owners are away. I’m in school and get out around noon, and I work part-time on weekends. I’ll make sure your pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and care—they’ll be happy, safe, and well-looked after while you’re away. Safety and trust come first. I’m clean, organized, and respectful of your home—you’ll come back to it just as you left it. Your dogs will get plenty of exercise on walks and lots of attention and affection while staying comfortable and happy at home.
About: I've taken care of them all, big and small! I offer personalized attention to suit each dog's unique personality and needs. My goal is to ensure your dog feels happy, loved, and safe while you're away. I always offer photo/video updates to keep the owner at ease! I currently work full time but I have evenings off and Fridays and Saturdays! Drop-in visits and walks are certainly doable, and I will always make time on weekends. I would prefer the pets to be in their own home where they are comfortable, as I live in a one bedroom apartment with my own animals.
“It you're on the fence and not sure if Rover is the way to go, I highly recommend you book Dakoda. I was really worried it was going to be a mess. I was pleasantly surprised when he offered to meet before hand and discuss the details of our upcoming trip. He immediately made me feel at ease and was very comfortable with my large dogs. Dakoda also notices the little things that needed to be cared for in our home. He changed our Christmas countdown while we were out. It's the little things that make a real difference. I can tell he not only cares about the pets but also cares about the family he stays with. Book Dakoda, he is truly a remarkable young man.”
About: I have always had pets in the home which include: dogs, cats, birds, fish and horses. I have taken care of neonate puppies and kittens as well as senior animals. I have experience taking care of animals with injuries, disabilities and medications needs. I have a very calm demeanor which often allows animals to feel comfortable around me. I work from home Monday and Friday which would allow me to be home Friday through Monday with pets. I work in the office Tuesday through Thursday from 7:30 to 4:30 I have a fenced yard that allows dogs a space to run around and go potty. I also have a large house with both tile and carpet. I allow pets on furniture and also provide beds on the floor for animals that are not allowed or unable to get on the couch/bed.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Tanque Verde is $45

Michaela is an absolute gem! My dog got sick while I was gone and started to have concerning symptoms, ie, appeared that he was trying to vomit and poop, but couldn’t do either. Michaela left work to take him to the emergency vet. Thankfully, it was nothing serious. In addition, she COOKED him food that he should eat while recovering and brought pumpkin from her home for him. He loved the food and he loves her! Can’t recommend Michaela highly enough! Would give SIX stars if I could!
Caitlin watched my 3 dogs at my house for a week while I was traveling. She reliably showed up and left when she said she would, and I returned to 3 happy dogs and the house in good order. Mid way through the week, she sent me pictures of them, which I really appreciated. I wouldn't hesitate to book her for a house sit again. Thank you, Caitlin!
Summyr took wonderful care of our 11-week-old Weimaraner, Hope, in our home. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly comfortable handling a young, high-energy puppy. The updates and photos she shared were especially appreciated, seeing how relaxed and happy Hope was, truly warmed our hearts. It was clear she was being cared for with attention and kindness, and I could visibly see Hope trying to stop Summyr from leaving. We will absolutely book with Summyr again and highly recommend her for any puppy care needs. — Mark & Kimberly
Elena took excellent care of our dog while we were out of town. She communicated well, and sent lots of cute pics of our dog while we were traveling. It was our first time using a sitter so we were a bit nervous, but after the first night I knew Rocky was in good hands. Will definitely be using her again!

The average cost of House Sitting in Tanque Verde is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $72 per night.

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 Tanque Verde 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 Tanque Verde 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 Tanque Verde 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 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.
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.
