“Thank you so much for keeping the girl's and for leaving the house tidy. I will absolutely be reaching out to you ladies again in the near future! It's a huge relief for me to have somebody kind with the dogs and reliable. Allowed me to actually focus on my trip.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently care for two regularly, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, routines, and needs. What sets me apart is my ability to match a dog’s energy—whether they want to play and be active or just relax and take it easy, I adjust to what makes them most comfortable. I’m reliable, patient, and pay close attention to instructions, making sure your pet stays on their normal routine. I also make sure to keep you updated so you can feel confident your dog is safe and well cared for while you’re away. I can make time for you and your dog at any time and any place! Summer time is the best for your dog, but so is the winter! Fall and spring work just as well, so come one, come all! I have two dogs of my own at my house. I have had dogs all of my life and feel fairly comfortable around most dogs. I am very open to being active with them and caring for them!
About: Caring for people's babies is my ultimate dream job! From their cuteness to their unique personalities, I fall in love with every baby that comes my way. I've always had pets. Mostly dogs but I adore cats as well. Snuggling, playing or teaching- I'm never happier than when I'm around animals. I know leaving your babies for any reason can cause you some worry. Let me help to ease your mind. Your pets will always be in good hands with me and they will always be treated as my own. I will walk them for some exercise, come by to feed them or simply just to play! You can count on me to know that when you're not with them, your baby is not only being cared for but also loved. I currently work Monday thru Friday 8 to 5. I can certainly come by to walk or feed your babies if you're working late. I can take care of your babies any weekend. If I could do this full time, I would. I will feed your babies on the schedule you provide. Unfortunately, my babies are older and don't particularly like other animals but I'd be glad to watch yours in your home and that way you know your home is protected as well. I can also provide a reference!
“FIVE STARS ALL AROUND! Bri was awesome. I am someone who has a lot of anxiety leaving my fur babies even for a short period of time. I felt so at ease leaving them with Bri. We got great updates and I even came home to pictures and report cards which made my whole day! 10/10 will be booking her again <3”
About: I’ve taken care of my pets as well as family pets since I got my first cat back in 2010 when I was 7 years old. I have my own cat that I take care of. I feed her and take out her litterbox every day. She’s an indoor cat so she remains close to me at all times. I’ll follow whatever instructions that are provided. I’m used to dealing with my indoor cat. However our neighbors have outdoor cats that roam around and I hang out with them all the time.
“Damarilys did an excellent job taking care of our two dogs for the two days/nights she was with them. Her response time to messages I sent both before and during her sitting time was more than satisfactory. She also sent multiple pictures to of both dogs during her time with them. I’d definitely use her again if we’re going out of town. Amy”
“Kortnie is incredibly easy to work with. I found her to be calm, organized, prompt, and very sweet. Her communication is great as well. My two mini poodles are both seniors, one with seizures. She handled a complicated medication schedule with ease. My house looked lovely upon my return. I plan to use Kortnie again!”
About: Spending time with animals is a joy for me, I take pride in working to establish a trusting relationship with them, and letting dogs be dogs! Our property is fully fenced with squirrels and birds to chase, galore! I work from home so the animals get plenty of attention and potty breaks throughout the day. We love to let our dogs wander while we work in the yard, or fill up the kiddie pool to splash in, there must be a million tennis balls for endless hours of fetch in my grass! Over the last 35 years I've owned all kinds of animals and dog breeds of all ages and sizes; anxious rescue dogs, puppies, senior dogs, epileptic, diabetic dogs, & i've even gained experience walking dogs at shelters. I've always loved to include my dogs hiking, camping and to the beach. Recently I oversaw the birth & development of our own dachshund's litter. Please for the safety & comfort of ALL animals we require that dogs being boarded are up to date on rabies and vaccinations including flea. **dog walking services will be available weather permitting, over 90 or a down pour we will need to reschedule. If you have a dog over 40lb I may be able, dog dependent, just message me! I understand how important it is to have someone dependable, responsive and respectful.. that's me! I start each day tending to the animals about 7am; waters refilled, potties outside etc.. and make sure we spend time playing outside several times throughout the day. I work from home so they get plenty of attention. Usually I work in a long indoor nap in the height of the days heat. Rover dogs always have their own room to sleep in at our house, we won't crate them unless they aren't able to roam-free safely, (chewers, i'm looking at you.) Or if you request it. I do not allow rover dogs upstairs, or in our bedroom at night. Safety & the well being of the animals is always the most important to me. Introductions will be made at the animals pace & comfort level. We have a fully fenced yard with a minimum of 4ft high chain link. There is also a fully fenced 10x10x6' kennel if you have a dog that can REALLY jump, they would still be able to spend time in the yard off-leash. There are separately fence portions of my yard if you prefer your animal be kept separate for any reason. If you need help with pick up, drop off, or bathing just say so! I have a restraint system in my car for small breeds. I have a variety of crate sizes & a puppy play pen. If you wonder about leaving your dog here just message me with any questions or come see the space. I know the anxiety of trusting someone with your best bud and I aim to help relieve that. Please for the safety & comfort of ALL animals we require that dogs being boarded are up to date on rabies and vaccinations including flea. Please let me know if your dog requires medication, special attention, is scared of storms.. etc. Please let me know if you DO NOT want your dogs to play with ours for whatever reason it will not hurt my feelings especially if its keeping animals safe and feeling secure. We have some chickens (in a run), and there are horses on the property next to ours FYI, they are very used to dogs. I prefer safe than sorry! We are on a dead end so there is little traffic and no kids living here. If you prefer I can even accommodate housing your animal completely separately, in our very peaceful guest apartment, that has worked well for some special need babies.

About: Hello! My experience comes from being the proud owner of an energetic and loving water dog named Capri. We loved hiking and spending time at the dog park.

FAQs for House Sitting - Vidor
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Vidor on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 74 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Vidor. 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 Vidor 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 Vidor 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 Vidor 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
