“Adrienne was absolutely wonderful to work with! She sent us tons of really spectacular photos of our pets while we were away, and we were left with absolutely no worries whatsoever. We will absolutely be using Adrienne's services in the future!”
“Jessica was awesome! Our dogs loved her and she really stepped in during a time of panic for us when we lost our original dog sitter 2 days before vacation. 5-star rating all around and we will definitely book with her again!”
“We recently worked with Tracy in Frederick, MD to watch out two pups while we were away for about a week. This was the first time we asked someone who wasn't a family or immediate friend to watch our home and pups, and we would welcome her into our home again! She did an excellent job keeping us in the loop while sending adorable pictures of them playing in the yard and hanging around the house. She established a quick bond with our dogs, one of which is on anxiety medications, and it was clear they got along with Tracy well during her stay. Her support gave us peace of mind while we traveled, and we look forward to working with her agin.”
“Jennifer was great with my fur babies! She sent frequent updates and they were comfortable and happy to stay at home while I was away! Will be using her again in the future!”
“Miranda is very professional, responsible, and communicative! She visited us before the job to meet us and our pups, and we could tell right away that she was warm and friendly and asked all the right questions to prepare for the job. We needed someone to spend a lot of time at our home since our youngest dog could not yet be trusted alone for a long time, and she was completely up for that. We got regular updates and pictures throughout her stay without any prompting and we returned to a clean home and two relaxed and happy pups. I highly recommend Miranda! She is the best dog/home sitter we've ever had.”
About: I will spoil your pets as if they were my own! I have my own dog, Jovie. She is a 9 month old lab mix and very strong willed. She is also in training to become a service dog. I am used to taking care of big dogs, but have no problem with small ones as well. I will walk and do drop ins to make sure your four legged baby is well taken care of! Currently, I am available most days. Since I was little, animals have always been a big part of my life. From puppies to senior dogs and tiny hatchlings to full grown tortoises, every animal is just a baby and should be taken care of as such. In all my years pet sitting, never have I met a pet that didnt become a friend. I love walking my dog everyday, and multiple times a day. As a high energy breed, she very much thrives from multiple walks and one on one time with mom.
“Kristen did an amazing job taking care of our sweet pup while we were away for a few days. She is very conscientious, asked a lot of smart questions to ensure she understood everything about his car to ensure a wonderful stay. In addition, she sent detailed notes and pics after every visit to keep us informed. She even confirmed whether it was ok to keep those frequent communications throughout the day or if we preferred less. The pics she sent, our boy looked very happy. In addition, she’s very nice, warm and friendly. I highly recommend working with her.”
“Heidi tool great care of my pup, Felix. She was very organized and made sure she had a list of questions to fully understand his routine before I went out of town. She made sure to give me updates throughout the day and was responsive to all my inquiries. I highly recommend Heidi for any of your pet care needs!”
“Erika was amazing! She accommodated us and was responsive. Our pets seemed to enjoy her and had a relaxing time while we were away. We will be reaching back out to her for future visits!”
“Sara was absolutely amazing! One of our dogs can be a little nervous meeting new people, and Sara was so patient. She came in, sat down, and let Heidi get comfortable at her own pace. She even brought her own treats, which the dogs loved. While we were away, she checked in regularly with photos and videos, and we really appreciated that. And when we got home, I swear the house was even cleaner than when we left it. Truly a 10/10 experience. Sara was fantastic!”
“Devon helped watch our 5 pups while away on a business trip. He had excellent updates with pictures to help ease our minds. We secured his services for two future trips and we feel luck to have found him!”
“This was our first time having anyone other than family watch our dog. Also, the first time having someone stay in our home. David was excellent with our dog as well as respectful of our home. The house was as we left it with no mess or anything. Very appreciative of a great first experience for in home dog sitting. Thanks, David!”
“My puppy has some behavioral issues, so I was nervous about leaving him with a sitter. So, I was thrilled that he took to Isabel so well! She sent me pictures and updates all day and really made a connection with both my dogs. She followed all my care instructions and I came home to two happy dogs.”
“Raquel watched our 13 year old dog overnight for our wedding weekend. She was kind on time and very flexible. With the frequent walks and picture updates our girl was in good hands. We look forward to working with her again and would highly recommend her hands down.”
About: In the past, I have mainly walked and played with friends and even a teachers dog! I have also accompanied my cousin who pet sits herself with walking and playing with her clients pets! More recently I have been able to meet some lovely clients and their pets, including more than just dogs! Currently my summer is pretty open besides an occasional summer job and one vacation in July. I will be starting college in the fall but I can always make time on my breaks to come back and see your fur babies!! I intend to help you and your pets to my best ability. I’m down to walk, play, feed, and even relax with your pets! Animals deserve their spa days too. If your pet has anything medical or medicine related let me know and I’ll make sure to step up my game!!!
“Max took excellent care of our laid-back and easygoing dog, ensuring that he was well-cared for and comfortable while we were away. The replies to my outreach, provided us immense peace of mind, knowing that our boy was in good hands.”
“Victoria was an amazing sitter for my dog Felix. Felix can be a bit shy but he warmed up her quickly. She sent me photos and updates every day, which I appreciated so much. I trusted her completely with my pup and my house and I’d highly recommend her for any pet needs!”
“Kaila was amazing!! She took care of my German Shepherd while I was away for the weekend. She kept me updated the whole time and I’m so grateful she took such a good care of my baby!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Carrollton
Karen was absolutely the best dog sitter and house sitter. We were overseas for 10 days and our blind dog is very averse to strangers. She came over a couple of times so he could get used to her. Her calm presence and gentle manner immediately put him at ease. He's very barky but she remained perfectly calm. He warmed up fast and they were best buddies soon after we left. Notably, Karen also took amazing care of our house - watering plants, filling the bird feeders, taking out trash, and leaving our place perfectly clean. She provided our special needs dog with exactly the kind of caring, loving, calm environment that he needed while we were gone and provided us with the peace of mind that we needed to enjoy our vacation. Karen gets our highest recommendation to anyone considering her for pet/house sitting.
Rochelle did an excellent job watching our two pups over a long weekend. She got along with them right away, helped us administer daily medications, and kept me and my wife up to date with fun pictures, videos each day. She kept our house in excellent shape, and she even left us a pressed four leaf clover that she found in our yard. We look forward to booking with her again!
Jazmin took great care of my pack while I was away. She was thoughtful, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure everyone was comfortable and well looked after. She kept me updated throughout the stay and was a pleasure to work with. Coming home to happy pets gave me real peace of mind. I would absolutely book with her again!
Kristen was fantastic with our dogs even when our husky went full husky on the very first night. With one of our dogs being a new diabetic, it was great to have her expertise stay with the dogs so she could administer the insulin shot twice a day. We would definitely use Kristen again.
I met Adrienne recently to have her pet sit. Upon first meeting, she asked all the appropriate questions about how to care for them. The weekend had some adventures (not fault of hers) but she handled it beautifully and showed so much love for my pets. I absolutely will use her again. ❤️ -from A Veterinarian
Valeria was the first person my timid mini bernedoodle immediately warmed up to. She has that warm quiet demeanor. She was our house sitter my two babies and I felt they were in good hands. She let them be in the bed with her, sent me a picture and very attentive to my “puppy manual” that I leave for house sitters. She came on time and checked in with me before leaving. I will definitely ask her to have sleepovers with my dogs.
We had a great experience with Leslie. She accommodated our booking last minute, which was incredibly helpful and took a lot of stress off our shoulders. She kept us updated throughout Olive’s stay with messages and photos. We really appreciated her responsiveness, flexibility, and the care she showed Olive. Would absolutely book with her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Carrollton
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Carrollton on Rover is $60.97 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 2,986 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Carrollton. 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 Carrollton 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 Carrollton 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 Carrollton 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.
