“Tracy was such a great sitter for our multiple pets while we were away. We have a senior dog that was having some issues while we were away and Tracy took incredible care of her and kept us updated with all information without having to ask. She was very patient and kind with our pets and definitely recommend her to others!”
“Hunter did a great job taking care of my dogs. They liked him from the moment he walked in the house, so I felt at ease leaving them in his care. Hunter kept me updated throughout the time with phone calls and texts. And he also cleaned up after them when one had an accident. I was pleased with the service. Highly recommended.”
“Tayler and her daughter were amazing and went above and beyond to make our 4 fur babies loved and took really good care of them. All four have different personalities😅😅 and she tended to all of them ❤️❤️❤️. We will 💯 recommend her to others and book her again.”
“We can’t thank Lori enough for taking care of our 3 dogs. This is the second time we have asked Lori to watch them and she always takes great care of them and sends updates daily. She is the best and we will definitely be using her again!”
“Casey is a 10 Plus. You can’t go wrong here. He goes above and beyond. Walked my dogs even my older dog and I am sure she loved it. He would keep in touch with me send pictures and updates ❤️. My house was spotless when I arrived which was soooooo nice . I am so HAPPY I found him. You can’t go wrong using Casey HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM”
“Caitlin was fantastic!! She communicated well throughout our trip, sent great pictures, and responded to messages promptly. Took great care of my 2 15-yr -old puggles, which required staying overnight several days. Gave us great peace of mind. Highly recommend her.”
“Morgan was awesome 👏, she stayed with my lab Lucy for a week. She was very responsive, brought her on walks, sent me pics. Got home and house was clean, dishes washed, puppy brushed and sweet smelling. What’s not to like? Yes I will absolutely book her again.”
“Diana was THES BEST! I didn’t worry a second I was away because she’d send me the cutest updates and pictures every day. As a pet owner you can tell when they’ve been loved and well cared for and when I returned I knew Diana had filled my shoes to a tee !! I’ll never travel again without knowing first that Diana is available?”
“From the meet and greet through her stay with Lukas Alyssa was so good with him. She took him for walks, played with him and gave him lots of attention which he really likes. This was the first time someone other than a family member stayed with him and overall it went well. I will definitely use her service again. Thank you”
“Anna did an amazing job with Mabel. She was communicative, sent photos, and treated our home with respect. I didn’t have to worry and I will be hiring her again soon!!! Highly recommended!”
“Lori & Bailey are the absolute best! She was the most amazing sitter to my dog Missy and looked after the house while I was away. She sent pictures and let me know how everything was going regularly, it seemed my dog and her pup Bailey made great friends! Thank you so much Lori for being so wonderful, kind & attentive!”
“Christina did a great job house-sitting with my 90+ lb dog. She followed instructions on feeding and walking perfectly. Christina was also willing to water my plants for me while I was gone. Christina kept me updated and sent me pictures on the walks. She was very friendly, courteous, and punctual. She was easy to communicate with throughout the whole process. I returned to my home just as clean as when I left, and most importantly, I returned to a healthy, happy puppy. I would highly recommend Christina for your pup.”
“Morgaine took excellent care of my kitties. They were happy and loved while I was gone. He did a great job with my diabetic girl administering her insulin shots and keeping her healthy and happy. I’ll definitely book with him again.”
About: Welcome! If you are looking for a calm, stress-free, 1-on-1 environment for your pet, you have come to the right place. As a veterinarian’s daughter and a full-time professional pet sitter with over 100 5-star reviews, providing attentive, top-tier care tailored to your pet's personality and energy level is my passion. I host only one client family’s pets at a time, ensuring your fur baby receives undivided attention, customized care, and total safety. 🐾Why Choose My Care? 1-on-1 Exclusive Attention: Your pet will never compete with outside animals for love, space, or care. 🐾Veterinary Background: My dad was a veterinarian and I am fully confident administering oral medications, managing special diets, and providing calm care for senior or special-needs pets. 🐾Full-Day Presence: Pet care is my full-time focus. Your pet enjoys constant companionship, frequent potty breaks, and structured daily routines. 🐾Tailored Exercise & Backyard Fun: Guests enjoy endless play in my huge, fully fenced backyard. For dogs who love exploring, I am happy to offer trips to nearby parks for leashed walks. (Note: For safety, park walks are reserved for dogs who are fully leash-trained and do not pull heavily. Strong pullers will still get plenty of great exercise in the secure yard!) 🐾Prepared & Accommodating: I provide a clean kennel and dog bed on-site for convenience so you have less to pack, though you are always welcome to bring your own. 🐾Clear Communication: Expect regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and truly spoiled. 🐾Safety & Household Notes Children: Children are listed on my profile because my grandchildren visit occasionally, though they do not live here. If your dog prefers an adult-only environment, I will coordinate schedules so no children are present during their stay. 🐾Meet & Greets: I strongly encourage a quick Meet & Greet prior to booking so everyone feels completely confident and comfortable. ❤️In Hawaiian, a pet caretaker is called a Kahu—a guardian, protector, and steward of something cherished. I take that role to heart and treat every guest like my own. Whether hosting in my home or house-sitting in yours, I look forward to giving your pet a safe, loving home away from home! Full-Time Care & Companionship 🐾 Now that I am retired, pet care is my full-time focus! Your fur baby will enjoy plenty of relaxed companionship, frequent potty breaks, and a consistent daily routine. Your pet will receive endless love, attention, and playtime.

A 5-Star VIP Experience!!! 🐾 Tail-Wagging Activities: Daily walks in the park (if requested), active backyard games, basic command reinforcement, and brain-boosting activities like treat puzzles and sniff mats. 🐾 Impromptu Photo Shoots: As a prior professional photographer, I love capturing gorgeous, candid pictures of your fur baby throughout their stay! 🐾 Seamless Communication: Prompt text updates and frame-worthy daily photos so you can enjoy total peace of mind while away. 🐾 Spoiled-Rotten Comfort: Endless belly rubs, soothing ear scratches, couch cuddles, and focused, gentle attention from morning to night. I follow all care instructions, administration of medicine schedules and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while doing my best to stay on their schedule at home that they are used to. My grandchildren sometimes visit to give extra love, but if your dog doesn’t get along with children, they won’t be present. 🐾 Flea & Tick Prevention: For the health, comfort, and safety of all pets staying in my home, I kindly ask that pets be current on flea and tick prevention prior to their stay. I work hard to maintain a clean, flea- and tick-free environment, and this helps protect your pet as well as the other pets in my care. Thank you for helping me keep my home comfortable and safe for everyone! 💕 Certified in CPR & Pet First Aid (08/2025) with verification badges in my photo gallery. I love building long-term relationships so your fur baby looks forward to coming back! For your convenience, I have a kennel available at my home if your pup is crate-trained or enjoys having a cozy space to relax. You’re welcome to use mine, so there’s no need to bring one back and forth unless you prefer to.
About: I've taken care of pets since i was 15 helping friends and family care for their pets. I truly enjoy spending time with animals everyday. I am currently working part time, so i have plenty of time to play with your pups and give them the attention and care they need. I always make sure pets are safe and well cared for. I will follow your instructions and make sure they have everything they need while your away.
“Jennifer took amazing care of our two pups!! They got a ton of exercise, cuddles, and attention. She was in constant contact and sent adorable pictures and videos. I feel like I can enjoy my trips more knowing they are in good hands!”
About: I would love to take care of your babies while you are away. I will talk to them , cuddle them, feed and walk them. I’m am currently retired and looking forward to pet sitting. I have another friend that enjoys this so much, and I think I will like it just as much as she does. I will make sure there is always clean water, feed in the morning and evenings, or as often as you like. I wash the bowls about every other day. I have 3 beds for my chihuahua, one in the living room, bedroom and dining room where my computer sits. She sits in my lap when she wants, she lets me know when she needs to go out and I keep pee pads down for her just in case, and keep the area clean.
About: I’m a big dog lover and truly enjoy giving dogs all the love, attention, and care they deserve. I’m kind, patient, loving, and reliable, and I always make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I understand that every dog is different, so I’m happy to follow their individual routines and needs. I’m also very good at communicating and will keep you updated about how your dog is doing, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Most importantly, I’ll treat your dog like family! I work part-time and attend college, but I take time management very seriously and maintain a flexible schedule with plenty of free time. I also care for my own fur baby at home, which has helped me develop a strong sense of responsibility and consistency when it comes to pet care. I’m able to plan my schedule around the needs of the pets I care for and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I care for every pet with the same love, attention, and responsibility that I give my own fur baby. At home, I take her on walks every morning, make sure she always has fresh water, and give her treats and her favorite peanut butter. My family and I give her plenty of attention, including cuddles, affection, and companionship. She especially loves sunbathing and relaxing in her favorite chair with me! When caring for a client’s pet, I’m very open to learning and following their individual routine, preferences, and needs. I understand that every dog is different, and I want to make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, happy, and loved while in my care.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Burleson
We had a wonderful experience with our pet sitter! They took excellent care of our two dogs and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Communication was great throughout the stay, with regular updates and photos that showed our pups were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was clear that our dogs received plenty of attention, love, and exercise. We came home to two happy dogs and a clean environment, which we truly appreciated. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter, and we look forward to booking with them again in the future!
Sam was absolutely incredible, and I cannot recommend her enough! From the very beginning, she went above and beyond by coming over for a meet and greet so she could fully understand our dogs’ routines and needs. That alone gave us so much peace of mind before leaving for our trip. While we were away, Sam communicated consistently and thoughtfully—sending updates and photos that reassured us our dogs were not only well cared for, but genuinely happy. It was clear she wasn’t just “checking in,” she was truly spending quality time with them and enjoying their company. We have three dogs, including one who can be a bit more challenging, and even she warmed up to Sam right away with no issues. That speaks volumes about her calm, caring nature and her natural connection with animals. On top of that, she was incredibly responsible and made sure our home was safe and well looked after. We came home to happy dogs and total peace of mind. Sam is trustworthy, attentive, and clearly loves what she does—and our dogs absolutely love her right back. We will 100% be using her again in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Burleson 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 Burleson 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 Burleson 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
