“Marlies was so great with my animals! She was so caring with them and gave us peace of mind on our trip. She is very experienced with animal care and you can tell with the quality of service she provides! Highly recommend!”
“Courtney was a wonderful dog sitter that we would recommend to anyone looking for the best care for their pets. Courtney went above and beyond to make sure our pets were safe and cared for and keeping constant communication throughout the week on how they were doing.”
“Louann stayed with our 2 dogs over the weekend while we were away. She did a wonderful job and made us feel at ease knowing they were being taken care of and getting attention while we were gone. I will definitely use Louann again. It's hard to find someone who has such a passion for dogs as she does!”
“Jane is caring, thoughtful, and our 3 fur kids were well-taken care of. The house was very clean, and she kept me updated via text messages throughout her stay. She really loves animals and we felt very comfortable with her in our home. She is a wonderful, trustworthy dog sitter!”
“If you want someone that genuinely cares and is willing to go the extra mile to ensure your pets comfort, she's the one! HUGE paws up!!! 🐾🐾Highly recommended by both us and our fur babies! Ava took fantastic care of our dogs and house during our 10 day trip. We have a timid rescue pittie, so Ava met with her well before our trip and arrived early day of to ensure our girl would feel comfortable while we were gone. 💙 Our house was in better condition than when we left. She even washed, remade the bed, and took out the trash before we arrived home. We will 100% be booking Ava for all our future pet sitting needs!”
“The boys absolutely LOVED her and I also got lots of comfort with cute videos and pictures of the boys! Scooby says 100/10 best play mate and Prince says 100/10 best snuggles! Thank you!!”
About: I was raised from birth with dogs around in the home! My grandmother had a golden retriever named lady and she was the best dog in the world! I have loved dogs since and believe they are so special and people need to treat them with the upmost respect! They need exercise and proper care which I have read many books and had life experience raising them. I am extremely flexible and available to help take care of pets whenever needed. I work from home so I can leave whenever needed to help out. I have a two story house with a big back yard for our dogs to play with each other if your pets needs somewhere to go. I have a Multipoo whom loves to play with other dogs.
About: I fell in love with & have been taking care of animals since I was 8 years old. The majority of my experience is with dogs and cats but I also have experience with caring for rabbits, cows, and horses. Our pets are our family and will be treated as such with me. I love taking and sharing pics of furbabies! I work from home and will have lots of time to spend with and care for your pet. I’m conveniently located next to Towne Lake in McKinney for peaceful walks. I have an apartment and work from home full time. I’ll be available to take pets on walks as much as needed or just for fun.
“Josh is great! He is respectful and responsible. Josh provided pictures of walks with our dog and closed gates which was reassuring to us while we were away. Our home was clean and tidy upon return. I highly recommend Josh and hope to book him in the future.”
About: Ive not only taken care of my own pets but I have also taken care of my friend’s and family’s and I know and understand the value of them as they aren't only pets but family and I will make sure I give them the love, respect, and care that a family member would deserve!!! Im currently enrolled in high-school and working part time so I will have plenty of time to play with and take care of your furry babies!!! I will adhere to any rules and or particular necessities that your pet has, In order to give your pets the best care and make sure they feel loved and happy!!!
About: I’ve had various pets in the span of my life including cats,dogs,hamsters,gerbils, guinea pigs,fish, and frogs. I’ve always had a passion for caring for animals, and have experience working in a vet clinic for 3 years, as well as an animal sanctuary. I’ve always enjoyed pet sitting for friends and family, and have cared for blind and diabetic dogs, as well as ones with behavioral issues. One of my cats has separation anxiety, and I know what it’s like to worry and not want to leave your babies alone. I will give them plenty of love and entertain them while you’re away! And as I currently don’t own a dog, I would love nothing more than a furry friend to spend time with! I’m currently working part time and my schedule is very flexible throughout the week! I’m typically available to check in on your pet up to 3 times a day. As a pet owner myself, I understand worrying about them while being away. I’m a very reliable person that would give the upmost care and love for your baby. I would love to send updates and pictures to you often to give you peace of mind! I’m also very willing to do the small household chores like cleaning cages/litter boxes/ any messes they may make.
“Tom is a gem and we were lucky to find him after our relocation to East Texas. We left our home knowing that our babies were in good hands. Tom was respectful of our property and we were very comfortable being away. It was a fantastic experience.”
“Jocelyn went above and beyond for our Ranger. We came home to a happy Yorkie, clean house, and received pictures the whole weekend. We would highly recommend Jocelyn for pet sitting/house sitting. We will definitely book her again if she is available:)”
About: I’m reliable, genuine, thorough & caring. I’ve volunteered with several organizations ranging from visiting with dogs in the shelter to visiting with hospice patients to working with international development organizations. Offering a helping hand is at the core of who I am so your pet friend will be in good care with me! :) I’m currently working part-time in the arts so I have plenty of time to play with your pup! I’m available weekends as well and will be happy to work with your schedule. I will introduce myself to your pup gently and humbly, take them out to relieve themselves and let them stretch their legs and explore enough to refresh their spirits :)
About: I am a full-time pet care provider with over 800 clients. :) For boarding the drop-off/pick-up windows are as follows: Monday - Saturday: 7:30 AM - 7:30 PM Sunday: 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM All pick-ups and drop-offs for your dog are conducted curbside. Please wait in your vehicle and message us once you have arrived. PLEASE DO NOT KNOCK OR RING THE DOORBELL as this excites the dogs and we sometimes have a sleeping baby. We require all dogs to be on a leash at drop off! All pickup/drop off times are agreed to typically the day prior or at booking. We do schedule my appointment. We ask for exact times, NOT time frames. Please ensure that drop-offs and pick-ups occur at your scheduled time. We stagger all pick-up/drop-off times with other clients to ensure each dog has the chance to take their time to slowly get to know the other dogs before a new pup arrives. Arriving more than 15 minutes LATE, will result in a $10 fee. We ask that if you arrive early to please wait in your vehicle until your scheduled drop off time. If you are more than an hour late, a $25 fee will apply and your booking may be subject to cancellation. For pick-ups, if you're more than an hour late, you may need to pick up the following day, which will be charged as an additional night at $45.*** At Happy Hoomans we ensure your furry friends receive the utmost attention, love, and care throughout the day. I am a full time pet sitter without any other job or commitment competing for my focus. Rest assured, your pets will receive dedicated and undivided attention, making their well-being my top priority. In my home, pets are treated like family members, with a separate pet area (a converted 3 car garage - yes it is fully insulated, has AC/heat and is essentially a large doggy room that we consider to be part of our home). They have a doggy door that allows access to a fenced backyard for safe playtime and exploration. Cozy beds, a designated dog couch, and a variety of toys to ensure their comfort and entertainment. Fresh food and water are always available, along with ample doses of love and attention. In the backyard we have a doggy pool, agility course, and lots of shade. Our fence is an 8ft privacy fence with paneling at the bottom and no gaps to make sure we have no escapees. ***We do CRATE all dogs for bedtime or if I step away and I am not able to directly supervise them.*** We have crates that can accommodate pups up to 150 pounds. Crates have food and water bowls attached inside, and beds that are cleaned after each pup. We deep clean all crates, bowls and bedding weekly and/or after each stay is complete. What to bring: Food and a collar/harness are the only requirements. We have beds, crates, bowls, and toys. Feel free to bring treats!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 2,574 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Climax. 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 Climax 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 Climax 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 Climax 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
