“Ty provided exceptional care for our dogs, demonstrating genuine love and understanding of their needs. His regular updates and photos helped ease our worries while we were away. Knowing that both our high-energy and reactive dogs were well cared for and enjoyed their time with him is invaluable. Will definitely be booking with Ty again!”
About: Fur babies are family! They need love and patience. Growing up I had a Pekingese for 13 years and then a poodle mix for 12 years. So I learned at an early age the responsibility of caring for the family pet. My first adult pet was a mini lob rabbit which I had for 10 years. It had some medical issues in which required regular care from the local vet. A few years ago I was introduced to Great Danes and immediately fell in love! Zoe, my twelve year old Dane lived her best life. She went to parks, family gatherings, car rides, camping. She passed away last year at the age of 12 1/2. I am not ready for another pet just yet and now that I have some free time I would love to give others the sense of security by playing, loving and caring for their pet. I'm recently retired and have a flexible schedule. With that flexibility I have the opportunity to check on your pets or provide over night care with short notices. I have a fenced yard with lots of room for your pet to lay in the sun, run, stretch and play! For over night stays a crate might be beneficial depending on your pets behavior and comfort. For day to day visits I will respect your property and pet and follow your guidelines to ensure our pet friendly visit is successful.
“Nita was very nice and professional. We received several updates during the stay. Max really liked her and that was a great sign. Our house was as we left it. We will use her again. We highly recommend her.”
“Angela did great with our bulldog! She stayed over at my house for a weekend and left the house as clean as when we left. She followed instructions very well and sent great updates throughout the day. She also reached out when she was concerned about our dog’s allergies and that was extremely kind of her! Would definitely book again!”
“I had a great experience with Amanda! She was kind, attentive, and very understanding of my dog’s quirks. It’s always nerve-wracking to leave your pet with someone new, but she made the whole process easy and stress-free. My dog can be a little unpredictable, especially in new situations, and she handled everything with such calm and care. I really appreciated her communication and the updates she sent while I was away. I would absolutely recommend her!”
“Claudia was able to house/puppy sit for us super last minute and over a holiday nonetheless. She was great. Came home to a tidy house. No issues to speak of. Our dog was happy and healthy when we got back home, what more could you ask for??”
About: I have been on Rover for about 4 years since I moved to DFW. I have also owned 2 English bulldogs. I have experience raising a puppy and I currently have a 5 year old, male English Bulldog. I would LOVE to take care of your fur baby!! I currently work a full-time job but I’m happy to make time to care for your fur babies! I am available for cat/dog sitting around Cedar Hill during weekdays and outside of Cedar Hill on the weekends :) I have experience with senior pets and puppies, from low energy to high energy level. Please include detailed descriptions of medication or conditions, if any.
“Dakota stayed in our home and took excellent care of our pets. I received updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. He worked with our challenging Doberdane to make her comfortable with him. He is reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible and kind pet sitter.”
“Lilli was super sweet, listened to all our many requests, and our pups loved her! We booked somewhat last minute because of a day trip, and she made us feel very comfortable with leaving our pups in her care. Will book again! Thank you Lilli!”
“Bertha is amazing! Hands down the only person I will trust Gatsby to. She sent me messages and photos each day and I was able to FaceTime. I felt more at ease knowing he was having a good time. The sweetest person ever.”
“Azia was great with our Australian Shepherd! She was well cared for and obviously given lots of attention. Azia also communicated with us regularly about how our pup was doing. We’d love to have her watch Millie again!”

“We were lucky enough to have Dez as a house sitter this time and it went amazing! She took awesome care of Roxie and Ditto and took great care of our home too! She’s so kind and considerate! She followed all instructions left for them and even went over and beyond spending time with them, especially Ditto as he is a little timid but he warmed up to her so well! He got out of his comfort zone a bit :). And of course Roxie adored her, she took full advantage of all the cuddles and rubs! If you come across this review and you’re a little nervous/anxious but you need someone that’s trustworthy to care for your fur babies, I highly recommend Dez!!! She will be our go to person moving forward. Thanks again Dez 💕”
“Destini was so great! She took good care of our pups while we were out and stayed in touch with us. No doubt they were a bit trying at times but she handled it like a pro! Definitely recommend!”

It's such a relief to have someone like her in our home she's very respectful of our home and our girls love her. We woukd 1 million percent recommend her hands down without even thinking. Thank you Laura we appreciate you more than you know.”
About: I have five+ years of experience in boarding, dog walking, daycare, and drop-ins. I've taken care of dogs of different breeds, sizes, and shapes. Many friends, family members, and neighbors have trusted me multiple times to look after their pets while they were away. Please allow me the pleasure of welcoming and caring for your pet! As a full-time worker, I have weekends and flexible hours after 5 pm during the weekdays. Despite this short stay, I guarantee that your pet will have a wonderful time with me. My hours of availability are after 5 pm on weekdays for drop-in visits and dog walking. On weekends, I am available for drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting for your convenience while you are away from home, knowing that your pets are in good hands. Every Saturday, I am available for drop-in visits and dog walking from 9 am to 4 pm, and every Sunday from 2 pm to 4 pm I am available for house-sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking. Have a need for my services? My schedule does not fit yours? I am open to arranging changes in the schedule to meet you and your pet's needs. When I am a house sitter or drop-in visitor at a client's home, I will follow all detailed instructions left by the client so the pet is safe. I will contact the client when I will be arriving at their home. I will keep in contact with them when an event occurs. As soon as I finish my time with your pet, I will notify the client of the time I will be leaving their home. Keeping great communication with the client helps ensure that everything goes smoothly. I will also ask about the pet and his/her needs. The owner can tell me, for instance, if their dog can be socialized with another dog or any behaviors to be watched during the walk. I will follow safety guidelines to make sure the pet remains safe during the walk, which includes sidewalk and street crossing safety. My first step is to ask the owner if they allow their pet to visit a dog park. I will ensure that I follow all dog park safety regulations, and always keep an eye on the dog to ensure no harm comes to them while in my care. As a professional, I want clients to know that their pets are in good hands whenever I work with them
“Cassandra was amazing. She was so patient with my rambunctious pup and gave him lots of play time. She also was very attentive to my older dog and tended to her anxiety during storms that came through during her stay. Cassandra was very responsive, sent me detailed daily texts and photos. I know my dogs loved her because she told me how they cuddled with her. I highly recommend her and will definitely hire Cassandra again for my housesitting needs.”
About: Howdy! I am a 1st year veterinary student at Texas A&M with one year of full-time technical experience in small animal medicine and many years of part-time work, shadowing, and ownership of companion animals. Your pets are the heart of why I’m still in school, and I’d love to help families out while I pay my way through school! I’d love to partner with you to make sure your pets live enriched, healthy lives! I am currently in school full-time till the first of May, but have much more availability opening up during the summer. My weekends allow me a lot of flexibility and my schedule can be variable, so if a last minute walk or check-in during a week day is needed, I’ll try by best to be there! Reducing anxiety and maximizing enrichment is my primary focus whether that be a long walk/run, playing fetch/tug, or some nice pets on the couch, I’m here to adapt to your pet’s needs and make life easier for you!
“Rebecca did a great job with Anisa and Cairo while I was out of town for the week. Park trips, walks, some swim time and Pictures. :). Already looking at booking her again for my next trip.”
About: While I’m new to professional pet sitting, I’ve cared for a family member’s dogs and cats on several occasions. I’ve helped with feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping litter boxes clean, always making sure they felt comfortable and well cared for while their owner was away. I’m responsible, attentive, and truly enjoy spending time with animals, and I’m committed to providing safe and dependable care. As a college student, I only have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11 AM–2 PM, which gives me a very flexible schedule throughout the week. Outside of those hours and my part-time job, I have plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, and quality time with your pets. I plan my days carefully to ensure pets receive consistent care, attention, and timely feedings, so you can feel confident they’re in reliable hands. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their usual routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they receive timely feedings, fresh water, walks, playtime, and lots of attention while keeping their space clean and tidy. I don’t currently have a pet of my own, so my home is a calm environment, and I’m able to accommodate small to medium-sized dogs. My goal is always to provide safe, attentive, and loving care.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Cedar Hill is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Cedar Hill
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Maida!! From the very beginning, she made us feel completely comfortable leaving our pups in her care. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. She stayed at our home with our pups and sent me updates the whole time and kept everything super clean as well! I will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!
Amazing experience. Miranda asked for a meet and greet, which helped our dog feel much more comfortable. She came prepared with questions and ready to love on our pet. She stayed overnight, and I know it calmed him to have someone at home. Thank you, Miranda! Your love for animals is evident.
Cassandra cared for our two (very large) German Shepherds in our home while we were away and she did an outstanding job. Our oldest one requires more care and we felt he was left in fully capable, patient, and trusting hands with her. Our youngest one was given lots of attention and care as well. She’s quite knowledgeable and familiar with dogs’ needs and we felt very comfortable and at ease the whole time knowing how well Cassandra was caring for them. You can trust Cassandra will care for your precious pups as if they were her own and treat your home with respect.

FAQs for House Sitting - Cedar Hill
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Cedar Hill on Rover is $33.3 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 4,127 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cedar Hill. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
