Kinsey was so great caring for my two golden retrievers! She was extremely communicative, which was so helpful! She spent a lot of time playing with them and meeting their needs! Would highly recommend booking with her. We also did a last minute booking and and she was extremely accommodating

Amelia took such great care of our dogs. She sent photos while we were away and was so good with all 3 dogs. She stayed in touch and asked questions when she needed to. She braved the downpour of rain to make sure the dogs went outside. Amelia was awesome and so respectful with our home, and I could tell she took care of our dogs and they enjoyed her company. We highly recommend Amelia to take care of your babies 🥰!

Sarah did a great job for us. We have a very large active young German Shepherd and another midsize dog. Everything at the house was just as we asked and the dogs did not destroy anything. She communicated well with us during the trip and made good decisions on her own. We will definitely be using her again.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for most of my life, helping friends, family, and neighbors with walking, feeding, bathing, and providing companionship. I’m very attentive, patient, and gentle, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners peace of mind. I work full time on campus, which gives me a consistent schedule along with flexibility during lunch breaks and in the evenings. This allows me to provide reliable care, check-ins, walks, and quality time with pets. I’m also available on weekends and communicate clearly to coordinate schedules that work best for you and your pet. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I’m attentive, calm, and reliable, and I make sure pets are well cared for during visits, walks, and evenings. I respect your home, follow instructions closely, and communicate regularly so you feel confident your pet is in safe hands.

About: I have about 7 years of professional experience working with animals (medicating, bathing, kenneling, etc.) as well as growing up with at least one dog and cat in the house, I currently have 3 fur babies myself an English Bulldog named Kujo, a Domestic Shorthair names Ramen Noodles and a Domestic Medium hair named Nimbus. Along with my 3 babies I am also a Veterinary Technician. I am around dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes 24/7 medicating and loving on while they are under my supervision! I am constantly snuggling and playing with my personal pets and I am the exact same way with the patients at my job. Just because the babies at work may not come home with me I always treat them as if they were my own.

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and, since I can’t have my own dog while I’m in college, I love any opportunity to spend time with them. I’m going into my senior year at Texas A&M in the Mays Business School and have a flexible schedule this summer in the Bryan–College Station area. I have 8 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets like they’re my own. From energetic puppies to older dogs, I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule with plenty of time for pet care. I’m available most weekdays and weekends for drop-in visits, and I always make sure pets get consistent, timely care. I always prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort. I carefully follow all instructions, keep a close eye on pets during visits, and make sure they feel secure and relaxed. I respect your home and keep everything clean, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you feel at ease while you’re away.

Lindsey was so amazing. I had a last minute pest spraying at my apartment while I was gone and she was able to take my cat to spend the day at the vet so he would be out of the way. I got lots of pictures and messages. I was comfortable knowing that he was in good hands while I was gone. I even came home to a perfectly clean apartment! I would definitely book with her again.

About: I have owned multiple breeds of dogs my entire life! I have a lot of experience working with my blue heeler/collie mix, and we have even taken an obedience course! I used to do competitive dog shows in 4H with my heeler as well. I have house sat multiple times. I have taken care of dogs such as labs, rotties, and I even have done farm chores for people while they are away. I currently care for two cats of my own and understand feeding schedules, litter maintenance, medication administration, and the importance of respecting each cat’s personality and boundaries. I grew up in 4H and have cared for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, show hogs, cattle, horses, chickens, ducks, and other farm animals. I understand that every animal has different needs and personalities, and I strive to make them feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I currently work here in town as a legal assistant. My current schedule allows for flexibility during evenings and weekends. In addition, I have reliable transportation. I am very eager to accommodate all kinds of pet owners! I have given both cats and dogs medications, and have cared for both young and old animals. I can clean up after dogs and scoop litter boxes, and other tasks that involve keeping a client’s home clean and safe! I really value reading an animal’s body language and making sure to treat them with the upmost respect.

Madison was quick to respond to my request for a home sitter. She was kind, personable, and my dog appeared to connect with her quickly. She was helpful in answering questions while we were away and kept me updated a few times while we were away. She took care of my dogs medical needs while we were away. She offered to strip the bed she slept in and took the trash out before our return home. Upon our return home, I mentioned her name in conversation with a family member and my dog was quick to turn his head as if he knew who I was talking about which tells me he connected very well with her. I recommend using Madison as a home sitter.

About: 📝 About Me Headline: Trusted Aggie & Experienced Vet Tech at Your Service Hi, I'm [Your Name]! If you are looking for total peace of mind while you are away, you’ve found the right place. I bring a unique blend of deep professional expertise, local community trust, and a lifelong passion to pet sitting. I am currently employed at Texas A&M University, and I spent over 15 years working as a Registered Veterinary Technician. This means I don't just love animals—I deeply understand their health, behavior, safety, and unique medical needs. 🐾 A Lifetime of Diverse Experience I have spent my entire life surrounded by and caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. My experience spans far beyond standard dog and cat care; I am entirely comfortable and experienced with: Dogs & Cats: From high-energy breeds to gentle seniors. Exotics & Birds: Specialized handling and habitat awareness. Reptiles: Understanding specific heating, lighting, and feeding requirements. Because of my veterinary background, I am highly skilled in administering medications (oral, topical, or injectable), managing special diets, and recognizing the subtle, early signs of stress or illness that others might miss. 🏡 My Current Furry Family My love for animals follows me home every day. Currently, I share my life with a dapper tuxedo cat and a high-energy German Shorthaired Pointer. Living with a GSP means I am no stranger to the exercise and mental stimulation needs of athletic, working breeds, while my tuxedo keeps me grounded in feline behavior and charm. Whether your pet needs high-energy play, strict medical supervision, or just a calm, confident presence to keep them company, I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. I can’t wait to meet your best friend! Working at Texas A&M allows me to maintain a highly structured schedule. I structure my pet sitting routine around my university hours, dedicating my mornings, lunch breaks, evenings, and full weekends to attentive pet care. Because I am local, I can easily accommodate reliable drop-in visits, dog walking, or house sitting to fit your pet's precise daily routine. Whether in your home or mine, your pet's absolute safety is my top priority. Drawing on my 15+ years of experience as a registered veterinary technician, I strictly follow your specific instructions regarding feeding, environment management, and medication schedules. I excel at recognizing subtle signs of anxiety or illness, ensuring a low-stress, highly secure, and comfortable experience for dogs, cats, or exotic pets.

FAQs for House Sitting - Wixon Valley

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 281 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wixon Valley. 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 Wixon Valley 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 Wixon Valley 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 Wixon Valley 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 Wixon Valley. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
