About: I have experience pet sitting for families I nanny for, especially during holidays and busy weeks, and I’m very comfortable staying overnight in their home to make sure pets feel safe and cared for in their normal environment. I have also house sat for other families where I provided daily care such as feeding, giving fresh water, taking dogs on walks, and making sure they get plenty of potty breaks and attention. I understand how important it is for pet owners to have someone they can trust, and I always treat every home and pet with respect. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my daily routine! I currently work part-time as a nanny on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays. My nanny schedule is very flexible and limited, which allows me to still be available for pet care throughout the day when needed. The rest of the week (Wednesdays, Fridays, weekends) I am completely free, so I have plenty of time to provide walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and overnight stays. I’m able to give pets lots of attention and make sure they stick to their normal routine. Because my schedule is flexible, I can often accommodate last-minute bookings and provide consistent care for your pets while you’re away! Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my #1 priority. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby and your home, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I make sure pets are always supervised, cared for, and kept in a calm, safe environment while you’re away. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walking routines, and any special needs your pet may have. I also make sure doors and gates stay secure, leashes are properly used on walks, and your pet stays in familiar areas where they feel comfortable. Whether I’m doing a quick drop-in visit or staying overnight, I treat every pet like my own and every home with respect. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy the entire time.

Susan has house sat for us several times and we are very pleased with her services. She is an excellent communicator and we really appreciate her flexibility. Our Shih Tzu Pumpkin is always well cared for and we have peace of mind while traveling. We will continue to request Susan to house/pet sit as often as possible.

We are so glad we found Eden on Rover.com! If you need a sitter, this is HER! She stayed at our home with our babies while we were on vacation. They were very well taken care of and she sent us pictures/videos each day we were gone! She also left the house even better than she found it. Thank you again Eden!

About: I’ve always been around animals and naturally treat pets like family. I’m patient, attentive, and good at reading animal behavior, especially with nervous, energetic, or stubborn pets lol. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I try to keep them comfortable, safe, and stress-free while their owners are away. I’m dependable with feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, cleanup, and giving pets attention instead of just “checking in and leaving.” I also know how important communication is, so I make sure owners stay updated with messages and pictures. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m used to being active throughout the day and handling responsibilities that require consistency and attention. I can work around feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medication reminders, and playtime. I understand pets need stability and patience, especially when their owners are away, so I make sure they get attention, exercise, and care instead of just being left alone. I also try to stay flexible for last-minute needs when possible. Cats have their own quiet, separate space where they can feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed without needing to interact with dogs unless they’re comfortable doing so. I understand cats usually do best with calm environments, patience, and giving them space to adjust at their own pace. 🐱

About: I’ve taken care of lots of different dogs, cats, and even a Guinea pig so I’m great with pretty much any animals. I don’t just do the bare minimum either I always make sure to keep them happy and occupied as well. This is currently my only job so I have all the time to spend taking care of your sweet fur babies, on weekdays and weekends. I’m capable of filling in with any extra things like administering medication if needed and anything else you need me to do for you.

About: I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, chickens, goats, donkeys etc. I have a very diverse experience in animal care. Mainly looking to take care of cats and dogs. I work as a contracted worker in sales so I create my own schedule. I’m very flexible and would be able to work around just about anything I live on a farm back home with indoor/ outdoor cats, dogs, goats, chickens, donkeys, and rabbits so I’ve been taking care of different animals since a child. I’ve also done volunteer & rescue work! It would be hard to find someone with more experience than me.

About: My experience with dogs includes both puppies and seniors. I've worked with all ages in both my own home with my own pups, and while pet-sitting. And while I can't lead training with puppies, I can continue ongoing training while they're in my care. I'm working an internship from home right now, so all I need is my laptop and WIFI. This means I am available any day of the week, pretty much any time. I can only render services at client's homes right now because of the rules of my apartment complex, but that tends to be less stressful for the pet anyway. I can care for pets however is needed, as keeping with the normal routine will ease the stress of their parents being away. I will feed them, play with them, make sure they have clean water, and can let them out or walk them, and of course give them as much love and affection as they want!!

About: Personalized Attention: I'll tailor my care to meet your pet’s unique needs and preferences. Peace of Mind: Regular updates and open communication keep you informed and reassured. Loving Care: Your pet will feel loved and cared for in your absence, reducing their stress and anxiety. I am currently working 7-5 in Wetumpka Alabama with a lunch break at 12. Pet can is available before, after, and during my lunch hour (if you are within Wetumpka city limits) Caring for a pet does vary from fur baby, to fur baby. I will learn how they want to interact with me, and gain their trust so they feel just as loved.

About: I’ve had a few years experience in pet sitting. Ive taken care of mainly dogs and cats but I’m open to just about any kind of animal. I usually am asked to walk, feed, and play with people’s pets. I currently nanny full time Monday-Friday but I also have reliable transportation so whenever I need to leave to check on pets or let them out, I can. I also have open availability on the weekends. I have the ability to sit overnight as well. I tend to only watch pets at their owners houses and I always tend to them very carefully as well as cleaning up after if need be.

About: This is my first experience with dog care. I have one dog which is my first dog and i’ve fallen in love with dogs every since. She is the reason that I considered taking care of dogs. I’m currently a full-time online student which leaves me plenty of time to care for your pet! I can provide the attention that any pet needs. I am available weekdays and weekends. My home is in a neighborhood , I have a gated yard, I care for your pet by taking them daily on walks, to the dog park, feeding, and nap time.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I could walk. I have never had a time in my life where I have not had at least one dog. I currently have a 5 year old pit mix. I just lost my 15 year old girl. I trained them both from 8 week puppies. So I have extensive experience with puppies and seniors. I am skilled at giving medication and can work with anxious or reactive or hyperactive dogs. I have also had cats and am familiar with their unique personalities! I work from home so my schedule is fairly flexible. I can work from wherever there is WiFi so as long as your house has WiFi I can be there as much as you require! I will take care of your home in addition to your fur baby. I will keep it as it first was when I arrived. Your fur baby will be safe, well loved, and well taken care of in your absence.

About: I have had pets all my life. I love them all and they would get spoiled rotten.I know it's difficult to leave your babies. Hopefully I can make it better with photos, videos, and as much communication as you need to feel better. I strive to treat your pet just like they are one of my own. I'm recently back from deployment and looking to generate some income while doing something I love. Bring your pet to be loved and cared for like it was you. Plenty of time for play, pup cups, and rides in the car. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs that love company. They can also have free range of the house. They will be well cared for and be spoiled like the babies they are.

About: I’ve been pet/house sitting for the last couple of years. The most animals I’ve worked with at one time is 4. I’m great with a schedule if your pet needs it. I love all pets and I can’t wait to get to know yours! I’m available most of the time I’m not working right now so the only time I won’t be free are for personal matters. I am looking for new work so this may change. I have worked with both larger and smaller dogs. If they are still working in training I can continue to work with them on what they know. I have helped train in the past but I haven’t done any primary training myself.

About: Hi! My name is Lily, and I have lots of hands on experience caring for animals of all kinds. I regularly dog sit for multiple clients both on and off this app, so I’m very comfortable handling different personalities, routines, and needs. What sets me apart is how attentive and intuitive I am with pets. I take the time to understand each animal’s personality so they feel safe and comfortable with me. I have experience working with puppies on basic training like crate training, potty routines, leash manners, and building positive habits early on. I’m also very patient and gentle with older dogs, making sure they stay comfortable, stick to their routines, and get the extra care and attention they deserve. I genuinely love getting to know every pet I meet and building trust with them. I’m reliable, communicative, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I would love to take care of your fur babies anytime! My schedule is currently very flexible, so I’m available for drop-ins, overnight stays, and extended care throughout the week and weekends. I’m able to adjust to your pet’s routine and give them consistent attention and care. My availability may become more structured starting in August, but I will always communicate clearly and plan ahead with my clients. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always try to keep their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I follow feeding schedules closely, make sure they always have fresh water, and keep their space clean (including litter boxes, food areas, and any messes). I spend quality time with each pet, whether that’s playing, going on walks, or just giving them attention and company. I pay close attention to behavior and energy levels so I can adjust to what each pet needs. For more active pets, I make sure they get enough exercise and stimulation, while for older or more relaxed pets, I focus on comfort, patience, and gentle care. Overall, I treat every pet like they’re my own , making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for at all times.

FAQs for House Sitting - Texas

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 173 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Texas. 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 Texas 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 Texas 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 Texas 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 Texas. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% 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.
