“It was such a pleasure having Oline watch my pack overnight. She has such a calm and serene presence that it didn’t take long for them to match her energy. Also, this woman takes FABULOUS pictures! I’m going to frame some. Thank you again, Oline ❤️”
“Diana helped us out while we were in Dallas visiting family - She was quick and responsive as to the booking and the details, and she soothed my dog who has some separation anxiety. She cared for both my dog and my father’s dog, and I know both were looked after very lovingly. I would absolutely book her again if I’m in the Dallas area!”
“John did a great job watching over Boog & our house. We are so thankful for the amazing communication and that we didn’t have to worry all week about our dog! Highly recommend & we will use him again when needed!”
“5 Stars – Excellent Care from Jose! We had a fantastic experience with Jose through Rover! From the start, he was friendly, professional, and clearly experienced with animals. Our dog felt comfortable with him right away, and that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Jose kept us updated with regular messages and adorable photos, which we really appreciated. It was obvious he truly cared and went the extra mile to make sure everything was perfect. When we returned, our pup was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. We’re so grateful for Jose’s kindness and reliability — we’ll definitely be booking with him again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter!”
“I couldn’t be more pleased. My Ava was content and perfect when we came home. Our home was tidy and just as we left it. I got regular communication, updates and pictures. I couldn’t be more grateful.”
“Lindsey has sat for my pup twice now and has been wonderful all around. She has no problem staying over night at my house and my dog just adores her. She sends friendly updates and is quick to respond. I will continue to book her as long as she is willing!”
“Ashley was fantastic! I was gone for 6 nights and needed someone who could stay each night with my senior baby. She kept me updated, the house clean and did a great job communicating and sent pics! I would recommend Ashley for being on time, trusting her with other fur babies and she has a great professionalism.”
“Jess was amazing with our dogs and home! I appreciated that I could be away and not be concerned because she was taking care of them. She was kind, understanding, a great communicator, and would recommend Jess for everyone!”
“Nicholas has watched our dogs multiple times in our house when we have gone out of town. They are always happy and full of treats when we get home, and our house is clean!”
“Andrea took great care of our dogs and home! We have a rambunctious pitbull and a senior beagle mix and she was able to accommodate both of their unique needs. Our home was just as we left it which is always so appreciated. We also received frequent updates and pictures. I would not hesitate to use Andrea again!”
“Lindsay was beyond awesome with my household of animals! She was patient with my crazy puppy and calmed my fears at leaving him with her frequent updates and pictures. Can’t wait to have her pet sit again for us!”
“Kimberly was awesome ! The only problem we had was that she SPOILED our dog rotten. Based on photos she sent us, our puppy PETE had more fun with Kimberly than he does with us. Thank you again Kimberly for being so gracious and kind to our four-legged child. We look forward to having you back in the near future.”
“Sumi was amazing and took great care of our fur babies and kept them company at night by staying at our home with them. We will definitely ask for her services again in the future. She sent picture updates to us and kept us informed about how the pups are doing. We highly recommend Sumi to anyone needing a great and professional pet sitter for their fur babies.”
“I felt very comfortable with Gregory staying with Benji, he communicated with me daily and gave me updates on Benji. I loved that Benji felt safe with him that made very happy. Very grateful and thankful!”
“Hailey was so good with both of our fur babies. She sent daily picture updates as well as any other updates that were needed. I know both our girls were happy to spend the weekend with her! She's great with both cats and dogs, and takes great care of the house. Even offered to stay longer when we thought we were going to have major flight delays.”
About: With over a decade of animal experience, was a Lead Veterinary Technician in urgent care and surgery, combined with a Master’s in Biomedical Sciences from Texas A&M, I offer a level of clinical expertise. My career has been dedicated to the health, safety, and emotional well-being of animals. Beyond my medical background, I am a former service dog trainer specializing in training future service dog puppies (from 3 months and older) for veterans with physical disabilities and PTSD. As a devoted pet owner myself to two dogs and two cats, I treat every client's home and pet with the same loving care that I give my own multi-animal household. If your pet has complex medical needs, chronic illness, or is recovering from surgery, you can travel with absolute peace of mind. I am highly proficient in senior and hospice care, managing oncology (cancer) patients, and caring for pets with thyroid issues or strict weight-loss goals. My clinical skills include: Advanced Medication Administration - Fluent in administering medications via Subcutaneous (SQ) injections, Intravenous (IV), oral, topical, intranasal, and rectal routes. Specialized Therapies - Experienced with diabetic patients (insulin management) and administering SQ fluid therapy. Special Needs Care - Fully equipped to handle incontinent pets, paralyzed animals, and strict post-operative crating or mobility protocols. I’m currently not working, so I have open availability. I have a flexible schedule and timing to accommodate any needs your pet may have. Comfortable with dogs, cats, and any small exotics that may be in the home. Early mornings, during the day, and evenings are open for care. I have a 6ft wooden fenced backyard, 2 dog-savvy cats, and 2 friendly, large dogs that love to play and hang out. Thor and Donte, the oldest cat and dog in the house, respectively, have very chill energy and will play whenever they’re feeling the zoomies. The greyhound and kitten are always curious and looking for a playmate. I love to be outside in nature and often will take my own pets on walks and trails around the neighborhood. My sphinx kitten even loves to be leashed to explore quiet areas. Love to hike and even have experience with SUP (stand-up paddleboard) with pets, both cats and dogs in life vests. Will make sure your fur baby is comfortable, exercised, and loved!

Ashley was fantastic! I was gone for 6 nights and needed someone who could stay each night with my senior baby. She kept me updated, the house clean and did a great job communicating and sent pics! I would recommend Ashley for being on time, trusting her with other fur babies and she has a great professionalism.
Vanessa was a wonderful companion for my baby Livy while I was out of town. She stayed in my home with my girl & provided the love, safety & security we needed. Livy absolutely loved her. Livy even slept in bed with her the first night while I was still home! I'd never left Livy with anyone but family previously. I didn't worry about my baby or my house. I won't hesitate to ask Vanessa again to watch my girl. I will happily recommend Vanessa for anyone needing her services.
Millenique was very polite and easy to work with. She took great photos of our two dogs, Tokki and Khloe, and did a wonderful job keeping us updated. She also left the house clean and was helpful with bringing in mail, packages, and watering plants. The only area for improvement would be punctuality, but overall we had a positive experience and appreciated her care for our home and pets.
Chelsea did such an amazing job taking care of Caly. It’s the first time I left Caly for a longer period of time and everything went well. She was communicative through out the whole dog sitting and asked any questions if needed. She is a great dog sitter and Caly loved her. I would recommend her to anybody.

FAQs for House Sitting - Carrollton
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Carrollton on Rover is $56.71 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 5,419 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Carrollton. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
