“Santana was absolutely wonderful! I couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for Maple. She was kind, attentive, dependable, and treated Maple as if she were her own. I could tell Maple felt completely comfortable and happy with her, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Santana kept me updated, and I never had to worry about a thing. It’s such a great feeling to find someone you can completely trust with your dog. I would recommend Santana without hesitation, and she will definitely be my first choice anytime I need someone to care for Maple again!”
“Toni did a great job dog/house sitting for me. She was very communicative and sent daily updates. My 2 girls, who are leery of strangers at first, warmed up to her quickly.”
About: I’ve been the primary caregiver for my own dog for 11 years, handling daily walks, feeding, grooming, medications, and vet visits. I’ve also cared for family members’ and friends dogs with a variety of needs, ages, and personalities. In addition, I’m an active member of Texas A&M LEIAS, a women’s organization founded on leadership, academics, and service with a strong focus on animal rescue. This involvement has strengthened my sense of responsibility, patience, and commitment to providing attentive, compassionate pet care. As a college student, I’m very organized with my time, and pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around classes to ensure pets receive consistent walks, feedings, playtime, and attention. I’m committed to maintaining each pet’s normal routine and can be flexible to accommodate specific needs, whether that’s daily check-ins, extended care, or overnight stays. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I carefully follow all owner instructions, keep pets secure, and monitor behavior and health closely. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I strive to create a calm, structured, and loving environment. My involvement in LEIAS and animal rescue–focused service has reinforced the importance of accountability, compassion, and treating every pet with the same care I’d want for my own.
“My husband and I are so impressed with Aislyn and Carson. They went above and beyond with every detail. We appreciated the daily photos and timely communication. We returned to an impeccably tidy home also. We consider them our go-to sitters!”
About: I’ve been around dogs and other pets throughout my life and understand how important it is to have someone you can trust caring for them. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable working with pets with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I take the time to learn each pet’s individual needs, whether that means walks and playtime for an energetic dog, sticking closely to feeding and potty schedules, or simply providing plenty of attention and companionship. I’m also comfortable with pets who may be nervous, stubborn, or need a little extra patience. I’ll treat your pet and your home with respect, follow your instructions carefully, and keep you updated so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. My schedule is currently very flexible, which gives me plenty of availability for pet care throughout the week. I’m available for daytime and evening visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I can also work with your pet’s established routine and schedule whenever possible, rather than expecting them to adjust to mine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priorities. I carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, boundaries, and anything else your pet needs. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the pet and the property and make sure doors, gates, leashes, and other potential escape points are secure. I also understand that every animal is different. I give pets time to become comfortable with me, pay attention to their behavior and body language, and never force interaction with a nervous or hesitant pet. I’ll also keep you updated so you know how your pet is doing while they’re in my care.
“Becky and Joel took such great care of my baby! Having a disabled dog, I get so nervous leaving him. When I met Becky and Joel, I knew they would treat him with all of the care and kindness possible. And they did just that! I am so grateful to have someone I feel confident will love my baby just like I do. I will most definitely be utilizing their services again in the near future!”
About: I’ve been caring for and raising dogs for over 10 years, and I currently have a rescue poodle named Zeke who I’ve had for 3 years. He’s spoiled with homemade meals, gets two walks a day, and plenty of playtime chasing balls. I treat every dog I care for like family—because that’s what they are. My goal isn’t just to walk your dog, but to make sure they have fun, feel safe, and enjoy their time out. I’m attentive, experienced, and genuinely passionate about dogs. Whether your pup is high-energy or needs gentle care, I’ll tailor the experience to what they need most. Currently, I’m in between jobs, which means I have a very open and flexible schedule to care for your pup throughout the week. I’m available most days, mornings or evenings—just not Sundays, as I observe the day for church and rest. Your dog will always get my full attention when they’re with me! When I walk your dog, their safety and happiness are my top priorities. I use secure leashes and harnesses, avoid high-traffic areas, and pay close attention to each dog’s pace, energy level, and comfort. Whether it’s a slow sniff-around-the-block or a playful, active walk, I tailor the experience to your pup’s needs and treat them like family every step of the way.
About: I've been a pet owner for half my life. I could not imagine life without a furr baby. They bring joy to my life. They are part of my family. I work from home so it makes it easy to attend to the needs of taking care of your pet. I can work on a flexible schedule. I have a fenced yard with plenty of running space. I have one small shihtzu who would enjoy the company. They are free to roam in the house as well.
About: I have 6+ years of pet-sitting experience, veterinary technician training, and professional kennel experience. I’m experienced with dogs, cats, farm animals, medications, injections, and canine CPR. I have a flexible schedule and offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight pet sitting in your home. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and needs. I treat every client’s home with respect and every pet with patience and care. I follow their routine, instructions, medications, and safety needs while providing a calm, comfortable environment.
“Ava was amazing with our two dogs and cat. She was in constant communication and provided daily updates. Our pets loved her! Would highly recommend and will be booking again in the future!”
About: Hi there! My name is Michael (pronounced Michelle) but I go by Niki! As a lifelong animal lover and beachside mama with a heart as big as a Great Dane, I go beyond basic dog sitting. I treat your fur baby like family—because they are. From belly rubs to pup-approved playlists, each visit is personalized, playful, and filled with love. Whether it’s morning zoomies, sunset strolls, or calming snuggles while you’re away, I create a safe, cozy, and joyful experience tailored to your pet’s unique personality. Your dog doesn’t just get a sitter—they get a best friend, a routine they can count on, and a home-away-from-home feeling every time. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze in—it’s woven into my daily life. As a mama with a flexible schedule, I’m up early and out walking when the world’s still quiet (and perfect for peaceful pup strolls). This isn’t just a job for me—it’s like a calling, a joy, and a part of who I am every single day. I have a big fenced in yard and a friendly, full of energy mini dachshund to keep your fur baby company! I can also easily crate your fur baby, if you request it.
About: I have my dog since he was a puppy, he is 9 years old now. As a dog owner and cats, I don’t mind to babysit the other owner pets when they are busy. I currently work from home allowing to have time to spend caring for your pet. I am excited to spend time with your pets. We will go on daily walks and I will work to maintain their routines from home while you are away from your furry friend. I have a spacious fenced in yard where I can take your pets to safely play. My home has an extra pet room that they can have for themselves during their stay.
“We recently had the pleasure of having Tammy take care of our two dogs for five days, and we couldn’t be happier with her services. After years of holding off on vacations due to our dogs' special needs, Tammy provided us with a newfound sense of freedom. Her ability to administer injectables was a crucial factor for us, and she handled it with professionalism and care. Tammy also went above and beyond by collecting a few Amazon packages that arrived during our absence. What truly set Tammy apart were her daily updates and photos. It was so comforting to see our dogs happy and well-cared for while we were away. We can't wait to work with Tammy again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable and compassionate dog sitter. Thank you, Tammy, for giving us peace of mind and allowing us to enjoy our vacation worry-free!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 10, going to neighbors’ houses and helping my mom with her Rover pet sitting. I graduated in 2024 as a certified veterinary technician, and started working at the clinic I completed my year long internship at. I love all animals and can’t wait to help you find the perfect sitter for your pet’s needs! I currently hold a full time position at an animal hospital. I interact with patients daily and am in charge of patient husbandry and clinical care. I have a fenced yard for your angels with plenty of room for zoomies, and copious space inside for hanging out or playing. Nightly cuddles available on request, or pets can be housed in a kennel in a separate room based on owner and pet preference.
About: I’ve had experience with many animals of different species for many years and can take care of all needs. I was a dog trainer and certified in dog and small animal wellness. I am currently a pet care specialist and do all that I can for all and their pets. I also have a degree in environmental science and pet wellness. I also like to applaud myself for customer service skills and being personable with everyone I meet. I will talk to you like I’ve known you forever and I strive to be someone those can be comfortable around. 😊 As a pet care specialist and pet owner myself, my schedule ranges from 8-9 am for spot cleaning and feeding, then around 12 I do pet checks, and around 5-6 is when I do final checks. For dogs, it follows the same structure with added enrichment and outside time in between. I have one dog and one puppy who spend time mostly outside and come in for breaks and food/snacks. I have a cat who eats twice a day and will occasionally be put in his stroller to go outside and enjoy the fresh air lol. And I have 2 guinea pigs who eat twice a day and will come out of their cage for enrichment and play time.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Tiki Island is $27 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $32 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 582 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Tiki Island. 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 Tiki Island 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 Tiki Island 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 Tiki Island 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Tiki Island. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
