About: I've cared for both dogs and cats my whole life-- I've never lived without a pet! I also have experience as a volunteer caretaker through my local animal shelter, and a deep passion for animal welfare and happiness. I work part-time and am a part-time student, so please check my calendar for availability. I have class from 4-9pm Tuesday & Wednesday and my work schedule is typically the day shift on Monday and Thursday. Again, if there are any deviances, I will mark them on the calendar! I'm happy to let your pet set the pace-- if they're a cuddle bug, I'll give them snuggles, and if they need some time to warm up, I'll sit quietly while they get used to me. If your puppy feels the need for speed, I'll take him on a sprightly jog, but if your senior prefers to take the scenic route, we can stop and sniff every tree. I'll listen to your instructions and preferences and theirs.

About: I’ve always had a natural connection with animals, and they tend to trust me quickly. I’ve cared for many different pets over the years, including dogs, small animals, and birds. I successfully home-trained my rabbit and hand-trained and hand-tamed four parakeets, helping them feel comfortable and bonded with me within their first week at home. I’m very patient, calm, and attentive, which helps pets feel safe and relaxed in my care. I make sure all pets are fed on time, well cared for, and given plenty of love and attention. I also have experience caring for my godsister’s and cousins’ dogs, including a beagle and a dachshund. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I truly believe every pet deserves kindness, consistency, and genuine care. I have a rabbit named miffy, a parakeet named Beaky. I feed and water them everyday as well as charge the litter box of my rabbit as I trained him to learn to do his business in his litterbox. I also help my disabled neighbor walk their dog whenever nobody is home I always prioritize safety, comfort, and trust when caring for pets in my home or a client’s (or neighbors) home. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I take time to build trust with every pet, allowing them to adjust at their own pace. I keep environments clean, calm, and secure, and I make sure pets are supervised, well-cared-for, and given plenty of attention and affection at all times.

About: Passionate about providing compassionate. My skills are playing tricks, fetch, sit, down, stay, come. A great way to exercise and build a bond. I like to get to know them. Mornings often begin with feeding, walks (for dogs), or playtime, depending on the pet's needs. Midday might include check-ins, litter box cleaning, or administering medication. Evenings are for meals. I prioritize pet care appointments and dedicate the necessary time. My schedule is open on weekday and weekends, anytime of the day. In my home, I provide a safe, clean environment with personalized routines. In clients' homes, I follow their instructions, respect their property, and provide regular updates. Love and attention are always included!

Chok is the most caring and conscientious cat sitter I’ve ever had. Leaving your pets behind is always stressful, but she immediately put my mind at ease. Melody and Houdini instantly connected with her—they usually take time to warm up to new people, but they absolutely adored her! She was incredibly attentive to their routines, extremely thorough with the care instructions, and treated my home with the utmost respect. It is so clear that she genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond to make sure they are happy, safe, and comfortable. I could tell from her detailed updates and photos/videos she sent that my cats were in fantastic hands the entire time. ***Chok also administered asthma medicine to one of my cats (an inhaler using Aerotek chamber and mask). If you are looking for a trustworthy, loving, and reliable sitter who will treat your fur babies like her own, look no further. I am so grateful for her and will definitely be booking her again! Chok is amazing!

Thank you, Brianna, for taking care of my elderly cats for two weeks! Usually, when I leave them, they get upset and could pee all over and make a mess. At this time, I came back to the clean apartment, and my cats were healthy and cheerful 😻.

So I am available after 2:30 and full time on weekends. To schedule care time, please give me two weeks notice. Thank you! I can take care of your dog in your own home.

About: Animals seem to naturally feel safe around me—maybe it’s my calm energy or my soft voice. I’ve cared for both dogs and cats of all ages, including shy rescues, energetic puppies, and slow-moving seniors. I pay close attention to their body language, routines, and needs, and I always approach each pet with patience, presence, and respect. I’ve taken care of friends’ dogs and cats many times—whether it’s daily walks, playtime, giving meds, or just being there for extra cuddles. I’m especially attuned to each pet’s energy and comfort level, which helps even shy or anxious pets feel safe with me. I also have cats of my own, so I know how important routine, gentleness, and trust are. What sets me apart is my ability to create a quiet, comforting space for pets to feel secure while their humans are away. I don’t just “watch” them—I keep them company, help them regulate, and make sure they feel loved and safe. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. Whether I’m at home with my own cats or looking after a friend’s dog, it blends easily into my daily rhythm. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give pets the time, attention, and presence they deserve—whether that means walks, feeding, or simply hanging out and keeping them company. When I’m walking your dog, I treat it like their time to enjoy the world—lots of sniffing, steady pacing, and checking in with how they’re feeling. I’m always alert, use secure gear, and steer clear of anything that might stress them out. No distractions, just full attention on your pup. If I’m staying in your home, I try to keep everything feeling familiar and calm. I follow your pet’s routine closely—meals, meds, play, or just chill time—and stay mindful of how they’re doing emotionally, too. I move gently through your space and treat both your home and your pet with care and respect, like I would my own.

About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was 6 years old, and my love for animals only grew from there. By the time I was 10, I was already the go-to pet sitter for friends and family. At 18, I began working at a pet daycare and boarding resort, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I also learned grooming techniques, safety observation, and even earned CPR training for dogs to ensure every pet’s well-being. At 19, I got my own puppy—now a happy 3-year-old—and he’s truly my world. I have worked with puppy’s to seniors and love them all ! Caring for animals has always been second nature to me, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. 🐾 I am a student currently unemployed and have all the time in the world to make sure I fit you and you’re pups needs ❤️ I provide a safe, loving, and clean environment where pets can feel right at home. My spacious fenced-in backyard offers plenty of room for play, and my home is cozy and comfortable for rest and relaxation. I’m experienced in following specific dietary needs and administering medications with care and attention. Every pet is watched closely, kept happy, and treated like part of the family. 🐾

Fadong was excellent!! I needed someone very last minute and reached out to several people early in the morning, and he replied immediately and assured me my boy would be in the best hands. And he meant it! He was very communicative, on time, and very attentive and loving with my Biggie. I am very happy with his care and highly recommend him to any other person looking for high quality care for their pups.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Whitestone on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 26,324 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Whitestone. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Whitestone stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Whitestone 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!

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 .

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Whitestone with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Whitestone. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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.
