“Amelia was great, as usual! Very communicative, sending updates and pictures. Amelia takes great care of Poppy and Simon And they always seems happy and content when we return home!”
About: I have over two years of experience working as a kennel technician at a cat/dog boarding facility. I’m able to care for pets of all ages with all different kinds of health issues, including administering shots and medications. Talk to me about any questions or concerns you might have, and we can figure it out from there. Pet care is my priority right now, so I will have plenty of time to care for your loving fur baby. This includes play time! Allowing pets to stay in their own environment while owners are away is an excellent way to reduce your pet’s overall stress. I’m able to check in on your pet as many times as needed during your time away. Making sure your pet is happy and comfortable is my number one goal!
“Reagan did a great job with our pups while we were gone! She kept me updated and sent photos as well. They were happy and healthy when we returned and we will definitely use her again!”
“She was amazing! She sent me pictures and made sure to let me know what was going on when I asked. She was also very understanding when I couldn’t answer sometimes due to being in a no phone zone. She left my apartment how I left with I deeply appreciated! Best sitter I’ve ever had, and I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Olivia was amazing with our two dogs! One of them can be a bit timid and nervous but he took too Olivia right away! She followed all the instructions we left her and gave them lots of love! We couldn’t recommend her more we would definitely use her again moving forward!”
“So kind, & responsible. Went completely out of her way to care for our needy puppy while we were away on a very important trip!! Even when things came up she maintained so calm. Peace of mind was unmatched. Would hire again!!”
“Marina was an excellent sitter for our active border collie. She kept updated with detailed reports throughout the day which was greatly appreciated. I highly recommend and look forward working with her in the future also. Thanks Marina!”
“There are not enough good things to say about our experience with Alex. I am normally a basket case with just leaving LeeLoo but now we have our 3 month old, Zeppelin, whom we cannot board. Alex was beyond attentive to their needs, schedules, and our instructions. He is very respectful and knows animal behavior. Our home was left in the same (actually better) condition than when we left. He provided updates frequently. But most of all, when we got home… the dogs weren’t even that excited to see us 😂😂😂😂. They were comfortable and cared for extremely well. Will be booking Alex again for sure.”
“We had Brooke and Steven stay at our house for about 10 days with our dogs and rabbits while we were away on vacation. They kept the house picked up and most importantly cared about our animals. They kept in contact with me the whole time sending me messages and pictures. I felt very confident that our pets were being taken care of very well. I would have them stay at our house again and take care of our animals.”
About: I’ve been house sitting on and off for almost two years! I’ve grown up with pets my whole life (I’ve had dogs, cats, and even a lizard!) I absolutely love animals, and growing up I was taught that our pets were part of the family, and I live by that sentiment now as an adult. Currently, I am a full-time student and I also work a part-time job, which can make it hard to be available for extensive periods of time. However, I am extremely flexible in going back and forth from multiple responsibilities, and have no issue sitting overnight! I think as much as it is important to meet all of your pets basic needs, it is equally as important to make sure they get plenty of attention while their owners are away. In the past, I’ve spent any time I could playing with my pets and keeping them company as they await the return of their owners.
About: Hi, I’m Faith! 🐾 I’m 26 and have lived in the San Marcos area for the past three years. I graduated from Texas Tech University in 2021, and I’m looking to spend some of my free time loving on and caring for more animals! I’ve been pet sitting for about 13 years and have always had a special place in my heart for animals. I have a sweet dog of my own and two cats who are my best friends, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pets like family. I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule to accommodate your pets’ needs. Whether you’re looking for drop-in visits, dog walks, or house sitting, I’m happy to work with you to create a plan that makes you and your pets feel comfortable. Every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I want to make sure they receive the same love, attention, and care they would get from you. I’m happy to provide updates and photos while you’re away, too! I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members. I look forward to hearing from you! 🐶🐱 I am currently work full time from home on my own schedule - meaning I can check on your pets however often needed and am available around the clock! I would love to chat about your dog or cats daily routines and what they like and don’t like. I am very flexible to your expectations when it comes to your fur babies.
“Wonderful experience! Sara helped me out at the last minute when my schedule changed. She also extended her stay with my pups because a storm had come in and one of my dogs hates thunder. I’m so grateful she was there to ease my worries when I had to be away at work. Will definitely use her again in the future and would recommend her to anyone I know.”
“Katie was so sweet and very easy to work with. I liked that she sent pictures of the animals having a good time, and asked questions of there was anything she was unsure of. I would totally book her again and am grateful to have found her! This was our very first experience with Rover and I’m excited to find something that will give us maybe some more opportunities to travel in the future. 10/10”
About: I have been caring for dogs of all sizes and cats for as long as I can remember! I have three energetic fur babies of my own - one dog and two cats - who I love deeply and am very protective of. When I care for your fur child/children, I will treat them like my own. I will give them the same love, attention, and protection I give my own pets. I’m always open to learning any specific routines or needs your babies have so I can provide the absolute best care. Your pets will be safe, loved, and well looked after while you’re away! I currently have a fully open schedule and plenty of time to play with and care for your pets! I am available all days of the week and at any hour of the day. You need me, I am there. Your pets will be treated just like my own. I have one energetic dog and two playful cats, so I am familiar with a busy, loving household full of fur babies. Since I have a fully open schedule, I can give your pets lots of playtime, attention, and supervision and can stay longer during drop-ins if you’d like. I’ll follow any routine you prefer (feeding times, walks, etc) and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while they’re with me. I also have experience giving oral medication to both cats and dogs, so I am comfortable handling that if needed. I keep a close eye on everyone and am very protective, so your pets will be well cared for and never left alone for long periods. I’ll send photo updates so you can see how they’re doing and have a peace of mind :)
“Briana was great with our super shy senior dog. Ellie warmed up to her in about a day. Briana was great about sending pictures and communicating with us. She was also a great help when our travel plans changed.”
About: I have a dog of my own who is about a 3 years old. We adopted him from the shelter when he was 9 months old, provided leash training, crate training, and taught him basic commands. I grew up on a farm with lots of outdoor dogs as well and truly love being around them. I’m available for weekday and weekend drop-ins and can give your pets walks, play time, treats, and love. I have been babysitting for a family for the last 2 years who had a 6 year old Boxer and provided basic pet care such as walks, bathroom breaks, and feedings. I am a mental health counselor and work from 9-5 most weekdays. I am available for weekend visits and/or evening drops-ins throughout the workweek. The pets in my home receive the utmost amount of love and attention. Of course I will always adhere to any rules and guidelines that are communicated by owners. I love taking my dog to the park, playing fetch, going on runs and walks, and cuddling with him on the couch. I am a big animal lover and think every dog deserves unconditional love.
About: Growing up, I owned 4-5 dogs at a time, ranging in sizes from 8 pounds to 50 pounds! I also worked for a Dogtopia dog daycare and boarding! I have owned and cared for dogs from all ages, from 8 weeks puppies to 17 year old doggies! I currently work part time remotely, so I am very flexible with days and time. I work just from my computer, so my eye won’t be far! I live very close to trails, public parks, and my apartments offer a dog park as well! I live in a very walkable apartment complex as well!
About: I know alot of tips and tricks to get dogs to have fun from my experience of taking care of so many puppies and dogs all my life I have so much time on my hands to play with lonely dogs and make sure they feel cared for when you’re busy with life My environment not fenced but they will remain inside the entire time with a comfy place to sit and lots of attention and care needed

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Zorn is $40 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $40 and $40 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 Zorn 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 Zorn 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 Zorn 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
