“We had such a wonderful experience with Rebecca! She took amazing care of our dogs and kept us updated throughout the day with messages and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We could tell our dogs were happy and comfortable the entire time. I would absolutely trust her again. Highly recommend!”
“We came home to two well cared for, happy pups! Thank you to Michelle for caring for our dogs, our home, and being so responsive. We also very much appreciate the last minute help, Michelle came through!”
“Caleb did a great job with our 3 dogs we had one that needed meds twice a day and he did great. I would recommend him to sit your fur babies he stayed at our home and left it clean.”
“Chris really gave me so much peace of mind knowing that he was at our house with our three rambunctious pups- all were pretty tuckered when I got home, and our home was left clean and tidy! Thank you so much Chris! I’m hoping that our pups get to meet in the future!!!”
About: I have dogsat for around 3 years now both small dogs like mine and big australian shepards. I care for children as well. 💗 💗 I attend class 10-2 pm. So that gives me plenty of time for morning restroom breaks & check-ins, and im free afterwards (unless im babysitting) I would make sure to not disturb their peace but also make them feel love and give them all the necessary attention they may need.
About: I’ve grown up on a farm & helped raise dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, cows, ducks, & hamsters! I have a love for all animals :) I am a law student, so when I’m not in class, I can drop in to care for your pet! I’m also available anytime on weekends! I have a fenced yard for your fur baby to play in. I also have a male (neutered) dog who just turned two. He’s very friendly and trained! I have a large crate if your pet needs to be crated for any reason, otherwise they are welcome to snuggle on my couch or bed with me!!
About: I’ve always had animals around me and love me. I couldn’t ask for something better to do then be around animals. They just brighten my day I have a pug and 2 bull terriers and they are just amazing ! I have 4 dogs too take care of myself and I have had to deal with one of my dogs giving birth so I do have experience with puppies I am 100% trust worthy, I would never touch or go anywhere where I’m not told to go ! Would never leave or hurt your pup/animal ever, always do what you want and what the animal needs !
About: I have a gentle and loving spirit. I accept all animals into my world. The more the better! I have a lot of love to give. I work part time so I have plenty of extra time to spend with all the pets. I love being outside and going for walks and spending time with animals as much as I can. Whenever I'm with any pets, they have my full attention and care. I'm happy to sit with pets as long as needed and give them the love and care.
“Connor did a wonderful job house- and pet-sitting for us for last 10 days. He cared for our dog and cat as if they were his own and tended to our small jungle of plants with great attention. We returned home to thriving greenery, happy fur babies, and even a freshly vacuumed house! We will definitely call on Connor again for any future trips that take us away.”

“Amy was phenomenal dealing with our many animals and our home. She is kind, caring, and thoughtful. All of my animals were extremely comfortable with her and I felt confident going on vacation with them in her care.”
About: The hardest part of traveling isn’t leaving home — it’s leaving the ones who don’t understand why you’re gone. 💙 That’s why every visit is about more than food, walks, or playtime. It’s about providing consistency, comfort, and genuine companionship until you’re back. You can count on me: With over 5+ years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and other furry friends, I tailor every visit to your pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs. Whether they thrive on adventure or simply want someone familiar nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and at ease. Thoughtful updates, photos, and dependable care come standard, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your best friend is in great hands. Because every pet deserves to feel at home -- even when you’re away. 🐾 🐾 Monday–Friday: Dedicated pet care from 8:00 AM til' Late evening 🏡 Weekends: Strongly flexible for day visits, walks, drop-ins Every Visit: Personalized care, playtime, enrichment, and thoughtful photo updates My Focus: Keeping your pet’s routine as consistent, comfortable, and stress-free as possible 🐾 Routine Matters: I follow your pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and bedtime routines. You’ll receive regular photos and updates, so you can relax knowing exactly how your pet is 🏡 Respect for Your Home: I treat every home with the same care and respect I would my own — keeping things clean, secure, and exactly as you left them. Safety First: Leashes, gates, doors, and outdoor areas are always double-checked, and pets are never left in unsafe situations or unfamiliar environments. 💗 All in all -- Individualized Care: Every pet is different. Whether your companion is energetic, anxious, shy, or a senior, I adapt my approach to what helps them feel most comfortable.
“First time using Rover for in house sitting and Louann was great! House and dogs perfect when we got home. Would definitely use her again. Thanks for loving on our pups!!”
About: Hi, I’m Krista! Dogs have been the center of my life for more than 15 years. My experience goes far beyond pet sitting—I’ve worked extensively with rescue dogs, including those who have experienced neglect, fear, medical challenges, and behavioral issues. Helping dogs decompress, build trust, and feel safe is something I’m truly passionate about. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, senior, or just enjoys a quiet place to relax, I tailor my care to their individual personality and routine. I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to earn their trust while making sure they feel loved, comfortable, and secure. I treat every dog as if they were my own. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates, clear communication, and the peace of mind that your pet is receiving one-on-one attention—not just being supervised. My goal is simple: I want your dog to be excited to come back. Whether you need overnight boarding, house sitting, drop-in visits, or walks, you can count on dependable, compassionate care from someone with years of hands-on experience and a genuine love for animals. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! Caring for animals is already a big part of my everyday life. My schedule is built around feeding, exercising, cleaning up after, and spending quality time with pets. Because I have years of experience with rescue animals, I’m accustomed to maintaining consistent routines and adapting to each pet’s individual needs. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, evening playtime, or overnight care, I intentionally plan my days to ensure every pet receives the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. I only accept the number of pets I can comfortably give personalized care, so your pet will never feel like just another booking. I offer flexible care based on what works best for you and your pet. In your home, I do my best to maintain your pet’s normal routine by following feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and plenty of companionship while also treating your home with the utmost respect. For pets staying in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, low-stress environment where they receive personalized attention, regular exercise, and lots of affection. I intentionally keep my bookings limited so every pet gets the individual care they deserve, whether they’re staying with me or I’m caring for them in the comfort of their own home.
About: I’ve been passionate about animals since I was 5 years old. Rescued/Raised/Fostered 3 litters of kittens along with a few litters of foster puppies within the past 6 years. Also have 3 years of professional boarding experience & animal behavioral skills along with volunteering for the SPCA of Dallas! Currently work 6am-2:30pm full timeMonday-Friday so I can be available for evenings & weekends! My days off are Saturday & Sundays for pet sitting if needed. I’m also off on major holidays as well. I have a 4 bedroom 3 bathroom Single Home with a friendly, playful dog ready to keep your dogs company. I also have 4 indoor cats who are very sweet but like to stay out of the dogs away. I don’t have a fenced in yard, but live in the country so they have plenty of room to roam. I currently work 6am-2:30pm Monday-Fridays & have weekends off. So with that being said, I’d be a great fit for both boarding & sitting for your fur babies! Well though I don’t have a fenced in yard at the moment. I do live out in the country where they’ll have plenty of land to run around & play as they please. With new pets I normally stay outside with them in caution of assuring they don’t run off & I keep my pets inside to relax & sleep.
About: I've been taking care of pups for over 15 yrs now. At first my own pups, but then I would help out friends and family with their pups while they went on vacations and/or traveled for work. My family says I have a kinship with dogs as most dogs naturally get a long with me. Sometimes I can calm the most excitable pup and have them relax in my lap. I work pretty early in the morning. I'm usually home by 10-11 am. I have a pretty good schedule regarding feeding and potty breaks. I tend to take the pups out for walking and play I have a fenced back yard and a dog park near by. I can take your fur babies to the park or on walks regularly. I currently have 2 pups myself, they are well trained and have a pretty steady routine (food and potty breaks). They get along well with other dogs, no biting or aggression. They do set boundaries though. NO humping.
“Keri was a wonderful sitter for our 4 girls. She followed all instructions and even had to deal with our 3 big storm fear girls in the middle of the night when a thunderstorm moved in. Everyone had their calming treats and got settled in. We communicated frequently since this was her first time to stay at the house and I am a nervous momma. I got pictures and updates and it was wonderful. We will definitely be using her again.”
“Jocelyn went above and beyond for our Ranger. We came home to a happy Yorkie, clean house, and received pictures the whole weekend. We would highly recommend Jocelyn for pet sitting/house sitting. We will definitely book her again if she is available:)”
About: My mission is to give you peace of mind by making sure your animals feel safe and are loved and well cared for. I’ve always had a love for animals and a passion for caring for them. I have been a pet parent for the past 10 years and have been a part-time pet sitter for friends and family during that time. I have changed careers and am now a full-time pet sitter. I also volunteered at two animal shelters for 5 years. I offer personalized care for your pets based on their needs and routines—whether they’re energetic pups who love to play fetch, or more chill kitties who just need a lap to nap on, I’m happy to accommodate. What makes me stand out? I’m patient, attentive, and truly enjoy spending time with animals. I’ll send you regular updates, so you never have to worry, and I’m happy to follow any special instructions to ensure your pet feels right at home. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy for your pet and I take that responsibility seriously. I am a full-time pet sitter, so I have lots of time to devote to your fur babies. I am available for drop-ins, overnight visits and boarding all throughout the week. I have a fenced in yard with pet turf for your fur babies to run and play. I treat your dogs as if they were my own, providing lots of love and attention. The dogs have free roam of the house including my bed for lots of cuddling.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 187 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ambrose. 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 Ambrose 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 Ambrose 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 Ambrose 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 Ambrose. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 91% 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.
