“Sherry is amazing! She took such good care of our pup, River! She sent pictures and updates the whole time we were gone! We've already asked for her again! I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs a loving sitter for your fur babies.”
“Great with all my furbabies and I have 5 total she actually sits with them the whole time and plays with them lets them in and out and sends pictures. She is very responsive along with sending her own picture updates throughout the house sitting . I will definitely be contacting her for any future house sitting needs 😊”
“This was my first time having Jessica watch my girl Boo, and she did a wonderful job! It was a huge green flag when she showed up to the meet and greet with a notepad ready to take notes! I felt like she took really good care of my baby and of my house. She's going to be the first one I contact next time I go out of town.”
About: I grew up with a chocolate lab and took in two cats in high school. I’ve primarily had cats as pets recently (and have become a master at giving cats pills). I’ve dog sat and cat sat for several friends. I always have a great time watching their home while spending time with their fur babies. I work fully remote for my 9-5 as well so any home with good wifi I can be there the whole working day. I have good experience giving cats pills and liquid medicine. I work remotely so I can work from any home with good wifi. So if your pet gets lonely I can keep them company all day long. For things that require a routine or specific timing, such as medicine, I set alarms and calendar reminders. I love getting a clear list of expectations from the pet owner of how to treat their specific pet. Every pet is unique and I want to make sure I’m caring for your pet in the way best for them! I’ve watched cats that needed three pills in the morning and one at night. I’ve watched dogs with special dietary restrictions where I had to tear up boiled chicken for them. I’ve also watched kitties that just want cuddles all day long and dogs who want to play fetch all day long. I always try to accommodate best I can!
“Kiara did an excellent job taking care of our large pack (3 pups & a kitty cat). She sent pictures of the gang cuddling each day. Took the pups for a walk. Everyone seemed very relaxed when we got back. She kept the house in excellent condition. Will absolutely call her again.”
“Sahara was wonderful! Our previous sitter cancelled last minute, and Sahara made herself available to watch our 3 dogs 5 days before we left for vacation! I always have some anxiety about leaving my pups for vacation, but Sahara made me feel comfortable that they were in great hands. She sent videos and photos daily, and kept me updated on how she was taking care of them. We will gladly use Sahara again and are so grateful for her!”
About: I'm all about consistency, structured, and love. You and your baby(ies) will feel secure with me. I'm very detailed and organized. I grew up in an old school 24hr home daycare for children. I feel fur babies should get that same attention, devotion and love. I also provide transportation for humans. 🐶 Pups who enjoy car rides travel with me for ride. For my pup parents, I also provide transportation to the airport for an additional fee. Pup parents are welcome to park their vehicle in my driveway. I create a place of peace for my fur babies. My home has a calm environment. Older pups who don't care to be bothered with other pups are separated. I make sure personal space is respected.
“Savannah is an absolute gem! She recently took care of our 3 pups and our home while we spent a week at the beach, and she went above and beyond! She made sure we were updated on how the pups were doing and actively looked for ways to help us around our home to make our return so much easier. Our pups were so happy when we came home, we could tell they received so much TLC. Highly recommend!”
“Rammiyah was great with my Great Dane Journey, who has severe separation issues. When we got back Journey was calm and no signs of stress or anxiety. I can't thank Rammiyah enough for taking such great care of my baby!”
“Audra did a great job of house sitting and caring for my cute but crazy cat. She stayed in our home for a week and I returned to clean house and a happy, well loved cat. 100% would hire again!”
“Mateo was geear and professional to work with. He was able to come by multiple times a day to check up on Domino and provide him the care he needed! Would recommend to friends and family!”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to every pet as if they were my own. I don’t just “watch” pets—I build trust with them, learn their personalities, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely happy while you’re away. I have experience working with pets of all ages and needs, including puppies who are still learning routines and senior pets who need extra patience and gentle care. I’m comfortable reinforcing basic training (like potty schedules, leash manners, and crate training) and sticking closely to any routines you’ve already established at home. For older pets, I pay close attention to mobility, medication schedules, and making sure they’re relaxed and stress-free. I structure my schedule to allow time for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I’m intentional about not overbooking so I can give each pet the attention they deserve. In a client’s home, I’m very respectful of both the space and the pet’s environment. I keep things clean, stick to their normal routine, and make sure your pet feels secure in their familiar surroundings. If pets are in my home, they’ll have a calm, safe, and supervised environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and rest.
“Hannah is amazing! She is very communicative and put all of our crew at easy. She sends plenty of updates and pictures of our doofuses chilling and playing and even some funny face candids. Would 100% recommend for dogs AND cats...because we have plenty of both and she takes good care of them.”
“Oh my goodness!!! I don’t have enough nice words to express my gratitude for Heather!! First of all she saved our vacay when my regular sitter bailed at the last minute, then she provided multiple daily updates on how things were going. I have senior (doggie )ladies but I am very particular about their care. She made sure she got it all right. Just fantastic!! When we arrived back home, I think the girls were looking for her-they were not overly excited, so to me that proved they were super comfy with her. She has a very calm and beatifiul spirit and the animals pick up on that. I was very nervous about using a service but we picked the right sitter! We have a number of rescue pups and because I am very particular about their care, we don’t get a chance to vacation much-and when we do we worry about their care when I’m gone, not this time!! My Pups love her, she tidied the house ( we had a packing frenzy before we left) and even fed the visiting deer, she went above and beyond.I WILL BE SURE TO CALL UPON HER AGAIN❤️ SHE IS SUPERB in fact she may become our go to sitter if she’ll accept, 😆 this experience was better than I could have anticipated. Thank you Heather and Rover!!!”
About: Hi! I am Cymone, a full-time pet lover and reliable house sitter. I know how hard it is to leave your furry family members behind. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, loved, and happy in their own home.I have 11 years of experience caring for dogs of various ages. I am comfortable giving oral medications, following strict feeding schedules, and providing lots of belly rubs. I work remotely / part-time, meaning your pets will rarely be left alone for long. I also treat your home with total respect. I always clean up after myself, bring in the mail, and water your plants. I send daily photo updates so you can relax on your trip! I cannot wait to meet you and your pets. Animals are the joy of the day for me, so I enjoy every moment with them. I squeeze a dog walk or playtime in the morning, evening and whenever they get the zoomies. I make sure to let them now they are loved with lots of pets and I understand dog body language pretty well, so I know when they need their rest too. I stick to your dog's regular walk routes and energy management plan. For cats, I dedicate focused time for interactive play and mental stimulation Pets miss their owners, so I provide plenty of reassurance, belly rubs, and calm companionship. I keep your living space clean, tidy up after myself, and ensure the home is spotless for your return. I am happy to bring in the mail, take out the trash on pickup days, and water your houseplants👍🏾
About: I’ve spent my whole life around dogs, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. While I’ve raised puppies—like my sweet girl River, who I had from 8 weeks old to 3 years—I’ve grown to love the rhythm and bond that comes with dogs at every stage of life. What sets me apart is a deep sense of patience, attentiveness, and love that comes from years of hands-on experience. I’m especially comfortable with routines, emotional needs, and making sure your dog feels safe and cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog is energetic, mellow, senior, or somewhere in between, I show up with calm energy, genuine care, and a heart full of love for every pup I meet. I currently work remote so I have the flexibility to go on walks during the afternoon, evening, early morning or whenever they need to go out! I’m currently in an house with no other pets. I have plenty of room for them to hangout and feel safe. I’ll make sure they get lots of cuddles and walks.
About: Patient, firm but gentle dog handler and groomer. I have over 15 years of experience working with dogs including working as a dog groomer. I feel consistency is the best method to keeping dogs balanced so I will work closely with you to create a routine that is best for your fur baby. My approach as a handler is through repetition/consistency/patience. I primarily work from home, I do work part time a few days a week outside of the home. I aim to keep the same feeding and potty schedule the pet currently has to lessen anxiety and behavioral issues. If I’m not able to do so, I will not book the boarding. I give fur babies time and space to acclimate to the new environment. For safety no food, totes or treats are provided, except from pet parent. All fur babies are in collar & leash for bathroom breaks/walks. I board two fur babies maximum and small/medium sized fur babies only.

Sherry was fantastic! Her communication was quick and clear both before and during the sit, which I really appreciated. She took excellent care of our three dogs and kept us updated every day. The house was spotless when we returned. I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future!

The average cost of House Sitting in Whitehouse is $39 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $45 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 Whitehouse 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 Whitehouse 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 Whitehouse 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
