“Denver was great, and we will definitely be reaching out to him in the future. He took pictures, gave updates, and made sure the dogs weren’t chewing up anything they weren’t supposed to. When we got home, the dogs were all relaxed and happy. Thank you, Denver!”
About: Not only have I grown up around dogs my entire life, I was a dog trainer for five years and have experience as a dog groomer as well. Dogs have always had a special place with me and I have been the go to pet sitter for my friends and family. Looking forward to bringing that care to you! I’m currently working part-time and am a college student. However, mornings work great for check ins and I have a flexible evening schedule. Reach out and I’m sure we could work something out! My early mornings are Mondays when I work at 6:30 am and Saturdays I work 4am-12:30pm. Wednesdays and Thursdays I work until 9:30 pm but would be more than willing to do a check in after my shift! With my background in animal care and dog training, I have experience dealing with all varieties of dogs and cats and I love getting to know them and their unique personalities! My dog, Kai, is very important to me and I know how much trust matters when having someone check in on him and my goal is to be that person for you and your pets!
“Lauren did a great job with our crew. We have a Great Dane and three Frenchies. We were able to enjoy our time away without worrying about them. We returned to an extremely clean house, happy pups, and peace of mind knowing they were well cared for. She provided photo updates and was very responsive from the beginning. We booked on short notice and she was able to accommodate quickly. We would absolutely love to have Lauren watch our pups again in the future.”
“Our pups had a safe and fun week with Shelby. She made sure they were fed, exercised and got lots of love and cuddle time. Our youngest pup who is still pretty shy with new people warmed up to Shelby very quickly.”
“Josh was a fantastic sitter! He spent the night at our house and never left our dog alone for more than 4 hours. We came back to a clean home with the trash taken out and the bed made. I would recommend Josh to anyone!”
“Paula was so sweet with our cat and dog. My dog has separation issues with me, and after a day, he was coming out of his shell and following her around. Paula has great communication and sends nice quality photos of your pets during her stay. I felt very comfortable with Paula staying at our house and have already booked her for two more occasions!”
About: I’ve cared for animals for over 6 years and have experience with dogs, cats, and other pets. I currently care for pets of my own and have also volunteered with animals through community service. I’m comfortable feeding, walking, cleaning up after pets, providing companionship, and following specific care instructions. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because caring for animals is something I do every day. I work part-time on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, but I am available before and after work on those days. I have more flexibility on Mondays, Tuesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays for walks, drop-in visits, and extended pet care. I am reliable, responsive, and committed to making sure pets receive the attention and care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and any special care requests. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and other animals, and I understand that every pet has unique needs. Whether caring for pets in your home or during visits, I provide a calm, loving environment and treat every animal as if they were my own. I also can provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away.
“I’m more than happy with Alysse’s service! Het attention to detail, professionalism, and friendly demeanor truly made a difference in my cats & my experience. The care and effort she puts into making sure everything was perfect. Her dedication to her work is evident, and it did not go unnoticed. Thank you for going above and beyond to ensure that I was satisfied with the service. 🙏🏾”
“Extremely pleased with these 2 ladies. Took very good care of our dogs. We got daily updates and pictures. Both dogs loved them. Especially my blind dog, who usually barely tolerates other people besides me and my husband. That showed us they went above and beyond. Would absolutely recommend them.”
“Caitlyn had a big job watching 2 dogs, a cat and chicks, hen, and two turkeys. All were well cared for and I did not worry!! They were in good hands!! She sent me pics of dogs too!! Thank you!! You can rest assured she will do a great job!!”
“Sean did a wonderful job and treated the boys so good. Our dogs are a little difficult and one of them is very shy. Sean was able to create a quick bond with him and they loved him! Will be using him again.”
“We didn't know Hailey before booking her on Rover, but we will definitely use her to watch our dog again. Our dog is high-energy and high-maintenance (he has to be watched carefully because he chews/eats everything!), but Hailey was easy-going and seemed to genuinely appreciate our dog (and all his quirks!). She was easy to communicate with and did everything we asked.”
“Rhonda is wonderful! It's been nearly a year and a half since we've gone away for a vacation or long weekend. Our last pet sitter moved away, and we're kind of picky when it comes to someone watching our babies. We knew we had found a gem when our 2 girls who are shy and standoffish went right up to greet Rhonda when she came out to meet us and our dogs. She kept us updated while we were away, which allowed us to enjoy ourselves without worrying. We already have two more stays scheduled with Rhonda and hope to add more!”
“Brittany took excellent care of our house and pets while we were out of town. I was very impressed by her professionalism and communication while we were away. We came home to a spotless house and very happy animals. She went above and beyond and we’re looking forward to having her back.”
About: Hi, I’m Mackenzie! Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently have two dogs of my own, including a miniature dachshund named Milo, so I know just how much our pets mean to us. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to follow your pet’s normal routine to help reduce stress. Whether it’s long walks, fetch sessions, cuddle time, or sticking to a specific feeding schedule, I’m dedicated to providing the same level of care I’d want for my own pets. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable care, walks, drop-in visits, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I do my best to accommodate each pet’s needs and maintain their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, so I take the time to follow your instructions closely and provide personalized care. Whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, exercise, or extra cuddles, I’ll make sure your pet receives the same love and attention I give my own dogs. I also provide regular photo and video updates so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in good hands while you’re away.
About: I am the definition of a pet lover!! All my life I have owned all kinds of pets, including dogs, cats, lizards, frogs, snakes, and birds. I’ve been pet sitting since I was 12, I made money as a young teenager by passing out flyers in my neighborhood offering walks and play sessions. I’ve cared for many different breeds and sizes, and as an adult I have raised and trained 2 puppies, a Pit Bull and German Sheppard, and adopted four seniors. I currently sit for family and close friends regularly. I have a 9 year old chihuahua mix named Tucker and a chameleon named Skittles I am currently working full time but I am off Thursday-Saturday and off at 2 on the days I do work so I am available and time that I am not at work! I will treat your furry family members the same way that I treat mine, my chihuahua Tucker lives his life like a king! He sleeps in the bed with me and my wife every night and we have a fenced in dog park at my apartments so he gets to run around and play fetch and then when we are done he expects his massage session with my impact massage gun, we also have a grooming station on site so he very much enjoys his weekly baths. At my dads when I pet sit for him I take his German Sheppard Elsa on long walks and play hide and seek with her in the house(she always wins) My sister has a Golden retriever puppy so when he isn’t sleeping he is wanting to play chase and fetch in the back yard.
“Mary was amazing! She sent me multiple updates and photos throughout the day and my dogs seemed very comfortable with her. She even extended her stay when we had flight disruptions and needed her to stay with them for 2 more days. We will definitely rebook Mary anytime we need a pet sitter!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Cedar Hill
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,683 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cedar Hill. 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 Cedar Hill 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 Cedar Hill 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 Cedar Hill 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.

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.
