“Cierra is Awesome!! It was my first time leaving Rebel with someone other than Family, so it was hard. But when I received several pictures of Rebel, I saw she was being taken care of and enjoying Cierra’s company I was relieved. she was doing good with her and I will definitely be using Cierra in the future..”
“Our first time using Tammy to sit our 3 high maintenance dogs went extremely well. Tammy is a dog person, that's obvious. But also the house we came back to after 8 days was just as we left it. And she watered our plants. We highly recommend Tammy for live in dog sitting.”
“We used Shanna to housesit our two doggos (a senior 85 lb healer mix and a young 15 lb poodle mix). Shanna was so easy to work with and kept us updated with pics and details of their time together. She went above and beyond and it gave us such wonderful peace of mind knowing our pups were in her care. We’ll absolutely be using Shanna again the next time we need to travel out of town for a few days.”
“All of our babies loved Gabby! She even helped one of our bigger babies get through a few thunderstorms. ❤️ The house was neat and we knew everything would be well taken care of while we were gone.”
“My Bandit loves Aiden! He is great with dogs and so dependable. After staying with my dog for 10 days, he left the house in perfect condition. I will use him often and highly recommend him.”
“Cali was amazing! Our pets love her. We will 100% be using her as our sitter whenever we go out of town. She communicated through the booking, sent pictures of our babes while we were aware and treated our home with respect. I highly recommend booking with Cali!”
“Attentive and thorough communication, very responsive, responsible and professional. Highly recommended. Our “go to” option for caring for our German Shepherd when needed. So glad to have found Brooke’s services.”
“Jordyn was awesome! My dogs loved her. She was responsive, attentive, cautious and overall made me feel very comfortable leaving my dogs in her care for my time away. I will be rebooking. Thank you Jordyn!”
“This is my second time using Sherry. As soon as she got to my house all of my babies were so excited and happy to see her. They absolutely love her!! She obviously treats them very well and sounds like she spoils them. I highly recommend her”
“We are blown away by Nina and how well she cared for our pets! She was prompt when she came over to meet our fur babies and was very detailed oriented. This was our first time using Rover and have already booked Nina for our next two trips. She sent daily videos and updates, as well as did some brushing on the animals while we were gone. Our home was immaculate when we returned home from a busy day of travel and her personal touches are unparalleled. You should definitely book Nina, just not when I need her, lol.”
About: I provide wonderful and reliable service. I am very attentive and willing and able to care for any dogs special needs. Any dog big or small, I will love and tend to them like they are my own. Their happiness and safety are my first priority when dog sitting or dog walking. I would love to be of service to you and your animal. I am currently looking to get more active on the days and nights i do not work, and walking dogs is the perfect thing i can think of! I have two 15 lb dogs who love to play! I have my own crate if needed, but would prefer to have you provide one that your dog is comfortable with.
“Megan was an excellent sitter. I need help last minute because I had to be in the hospital during the storm for 48 hours straight. Megan made sure my dogs were well cared for with meals, walks, and lots of love/attention. One of my dogs also needed medication and she was able to provide. Would love to have her back!”
About: I would say I’m a pretty experienced animal lover - - whether that be for dogs, cats, reptiles, amphibians - - young, old, sick, healthy. I’ve cared for pets for as long as I can remember, and I am personally familiar with the fears associated with placing your fur baby in the hands of someone you don’t yet know. Because of this, I take extra care to ensure pet parents are cared for as well as their pet by sending videos, pictures, and updates if desired. My best days this upcoming semester are Thursdays, Fridays, and weekends. I have some wiggle room on Monday evenings, Tuesday mornings/evenings, and I am unavailable on Wednesdays. I travel between Huntsville, Conroe, and Houston, so that is another component that influences my availability:) Just reach out and we can see if we can make something work! I am experienced in cat care as it relates to giving pills, clipping nails, administering subcutaneous fluids, bottle feeding, and of course cleaning litter, feeding, etc. My dog-sitting experience includes feeding and walking, giving meds, and watching overnight. I also am sensitive to the needs of animals who may be on the shyer side and ensure I provide animals the space to build trust with me.
“Karen was awesome! She took such incredible care of our Dog, and the house looked better than we left it. It’s such a relief to find someone so reliable. We would certainly ask her to come back.”
“A wonderful experience! She is so sweet connected with my 85lb German Shepherd quickly which is pretty special since he is very standoffish with strangers. She took care of him for week. The relationship was so strong that he went looking for her after she left. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience ( first time anyone has ever watched him and he is two years old). Tanesha is my go to for any future trips.”
About: I have helped my mother in the past babysitting and taking care of dogs so I am sure I have the ability to do the same on my own. I am currently not working; taking a little break so I have all the time in the world to help out you and your pets! Making sure they feel comfortable and safe with me. Take them on many walks, play with their toys, and lots of head rubs and head pats!
“WONDERFUL dog sitter!! Victoria watched our two small dogs and our home and did a great job. She sent so many pictures and updates and took our dogs on fun adventures and great walks! They love her! We will definitely be using her again and I highly recommend her.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Willis on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,134 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Willis. 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 Willis 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 Willis 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 Willis 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 Willis. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
