About: I am reliable and routine based. I will ensure the babies are fed,walked,bathed and receive the most love while in my care. Communication is very important to me and memories so I ensure that you will get FaceTime calls with the babies along with photos and videos and even some arts and crafts! I currently work from home so they furr babies will not be left alone. I have an SUV so car rides will be included if owner approved. I live in a two story loft apartment. It is Square Apartments ; so there is a beautiful walking trail on the complex and I also have a play area for the dogs inside of my home. Nap time is crucial so after play time I do play relaxing instrumentals to lounge and decompress. Rubs are a given and lots of hugs.
“Shayla is probably one of the best sitters we’ve had in a long time. Attentive, communicative, respectful and caring! Samson and Dotty were truly spoiled with her here and I know they were very happy with all the attention from their new friend!”
“Jill was amazing watching our dogs while we were away on vacation. Very good and communicating and made sure our one dog with kidney issues was getting her medicine on time and making sure she ate regularly. I would highly recommend using Jill for any of your animal needs.”
About: I am currently in college studying to become a veterinarian and have three dogs of my own, River, Ruger, and Rusty. I love all animals, large or small. I work part time, so I have pretty open availability on weekdays as well as weekends. I am always available on Sunday’s, early mornings, or evenings. I have two friendly dogs that would love to play if in my home. At your home, I would care for your fur babies the way you would advise me to.
About: Growing up with dogs—from my childhood Yellow Lab, Chili, to my German Shepherd, Jaylee—instilled in me a lifelong love and deep respect for pets. I’ve been dog sitting for family and friends for years, handling everything from daily walks to overnight care. As a college student, caring for dogs isn't just a side job for me; it’s something I truly enjoy. I take pride in providing a safe, attentive, and fun environment where your pup feels right at home. As a biochemistry major with a double minor in math and biology, I’m used to staying organized and focused. I intentionally manage my workload so I never take on pet care unless I can give your dog the full time and attention they deserve. My busiest day is Thursday during my lab, but because most of my coursework is online, I’m home study-buddy style with your pets during the week. Plus, I keep my Saturdays completely free for fun trips to the park or Starbucks pup cup runs! When caring for your pet in your home, trust and safety are my top priorities. I treat every home with respect and ensure your pet is kept supervised and out of harm’s way by keeping all hazardous items completely out of reach. I also believe that clear communication brings peace of mind, so I send frequent updates and photos throughout the visit to keep you connected with your pet every step of the way!
About: I've taken care of dogs for many years in all sizes from toy to extra large. I also work with birds, hamsters, and guinea pigs. I have veterinary assistant experience and love all furr babies with all my heart! I'm available on weekends and most evenings to care for your sweet babies. I do have a full time job that keeps me away from home during the week. I have a large fenced yard or can crate your baby if needed. I follow instructions to the letter if I visit your home to care for your baby.
About: I have always had dogs growing up, big and small. I love all sorts of animals and can care for dogs, cats, and other household pets. I have 2 dogs, a Vizsla and a Morkie. Our vizsla is a bird dog with very high energy. I trained him in puppy training all through intermediate. I also have done service hours with the Animal Shelter. I am a junior in college at Texas tech University, I have a consistent schedule with classes only on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11-3. In the school year I am in Lubbock and during the summer I am in the DFW area. I am attentive and patient with your dog and their needs. I will always contact you if I feel something is wrong but also use my best knowledge and judgment to not take up your time. I have lived with dogs all my life, especially a couple that would run out the door, I feel I am able to manage dogs escaping and those with very high energy. I care to get to know your pet and love it, because I know they mean just as much to you as my own pets mean to me.
About: I can take care of the high energy, anxious, storm worriers, medicated, fresh puppies and the elderly. I have 3 large dogs >100lbs as well! I currently am in nursing school Monday- Thursday and work part time in the ICUs. I would love to help care for your babies after class, during the week and on weekends! I will accept last minute drop ins or house sittings when needed! I am also flexible and can accept last minute bookings. I have a subaru outback wilderness suv that easily fits my 3 large dogs. I have two XXL cages and a double fenced yard. I have experience in dog training in walking, trail running, hiking, and other activities like fetching. I am comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving them. I would love to be able to take them to the dog park where they can also interact with other animals while you're away! I have three puppers of my own - a brown Labrador Retriever mix, German Shepard, and a black golden retriever mix puppy who are full of energy. When in your home, I would love to take your fur babies for walks, to dog parks, anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable!
About: I've had many dogs ranging from senior to puppy and love them all with their different quirks. All animals require something different and am willing to jump in to whatever they need! I am currently a freshman at TTU in the Pre-veterinary track. Outside of my set class schedule I am free to whenever you need me! I love walking dogs and playing with them. Whatever you ask such as crating I am more than willing to take care of. I do not mind I will listen to what your pet needs and make it happen.
About: I love Rover! I mean, what better job exists than to get paid to spend time with other people's animals? My name is Dan, and I have been around animals my whole life. Currently I am a cat dad of three girls, but I am also comfortable and familiar with most dogs, rabbits, and other animals as well. Probably the only animals I would not be comfortable with are mice and rats. To each their own, of course. I love to spend time with new animals. Depending of course on how friendly yours are, I like to do more than just feed them and walk them. If your cats or dogs like to play, then I am the person you want. I have my own three cats who take up all my time when I'm not out taking care of other people's animals, or otherwise working. I do this and other gig jobs, so my schedule is pretty flexible. The only time I'm usually not available is if I have already made prior commitments. I treat animals like they are children, because to me, they are. My own three are my favorite people in this world, but I love animals in general. I especially enjoy cats, friendly dogs, and giant rabbits. 😃 I like to treat each cat, dog, rabbit, etc, as the unique personality they are. Some cats, for example, are a little more standoffish than others. The best thing to do with them is to not push them. Nobody cat or human likes someone standing in front of them demanding attention ! Some dogs, for example, are very laid back and really just want to lay next to you and snuggle. Others are always ready to play! I am knowledgeable about safety, and when I am doing a drop in visit, I always keep an eye out for anything that doesn't look right. When I am dog walking, I like to go places that are not so busy with traffic, I keep my attention fully on them, and on everything going on around us. When I am with your animals, they are my first and only priority. I do not mix animals from different families. It's stressful enough that they are around a new person.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of my own, including daily feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, and maintaining consistent routines. I understand animal behavior, safety, and the importance of providing calm, attentive, and loving care while owners are away. I treat every pet like a member of my family and carefully follow all owner instructions to ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for! I work afternoon and evening hours, which makes me available in the mornings for pet care until 2:30pm. I also have ope availability on weekends, allowing me to provide flexible, reliable care and visits based on each pet’s needs. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ home to keep pets comfortable in their familiar environment. I prioritize safety by following all instructions carefully, securing doors and gates, respecting routines, and monitoring pets closely. I treat every home and pet with care, responsibility, and respect, ensuring pets feel safe, calm, and well cared for while their owners are away.
About: I’m a lifelong pet lover with hands-on experience caring for cats and dogs of all personalities and needs. During college, I volunteered for four years at a cat sanctuary, where I helped with daily feeding routines, administering medications, monitoring health, and socializing them to prepare for adoption. Whether your pet needs playtime, meds, or just a calm presence while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved. I’m currently spending most of my time studying for med school applications, so I have a flexible schedule and can plan my days around feedings, check-ins, and quality time. I’m very used to sticking to routines and making sure pets get consistent, reliable care. In a client’s home, I focus on maintaining a familiar environment by providing timely feedings, fresh water, medication as needed, litter box maintenance, and attentive observation of behavior or health changes. I also make sure pets receive appropriate playtime, enrichment, and calm companionship. My experience volunteering at a cat sanctuary has taught me to be patient, detail-oriented, and responsive to each pet’s individual needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 254 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Becton. 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 Becton 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 Becton 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Becton 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.

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.

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
