About: I have 10+years of experience and have taken excellent care of every single dog and cat I have had growing up, I used to do rover jobs with my mom and it has taught me so much more about taking care of pets that are not mine. I am free almost anytime unless my Family or Friends need me, weekends is mostly when my family needs me so text me before to make sure but I can almost always work something out if you need me. I make sure to take your pets out when I get there and follow all the instructions given to me, I check the water every 2ish hours and feed them when told. Also I do like to do meet ups before hand just so the dogs dont get aggressive or scared when they see me
“Emily went above and beyond when it came to taking care of our fur baby. She gave updates throughout her visit and we came home to the house looking just as we left it, very clean! Would definitely recommend her. She’s amazing!”

About: I have two fur babies myself and have been caring for them for about four years coming on five. I’ve trained them since 8 weeks old to my oldest dog who is four now and spoiled as ever. Even before my two dogs I’ve always been around animals since the age of six and have always been very curious about dogs and have loved them ever since. Pet care is a huge essential part in a pets life. Although I am a college student my classes are not all in person I have much time on my hands (more than I know what to do with). Although I love my own pets I would like to provide my services to others. I have two fur babies myself I understand the amount of stress it can bring when leaving your pet with a stranger. When visiting your pet while you are away I will make sure the visits are not just short interaction with your baby but provide play and know that they are loved while you are away, or even if you need to have them walked I'm more than glad to do what is required.
“Tegan was great with our 3 dogs. She was very attentive and accommodating to their needs and schedules. She went above and beyond while caring for them. She was great with updates and pictures while we were gone. She was prompt to reply and answered all questions. I will definitely be booking with Tegan again when needed.”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was pretty young. I love being able to form bonds with these animals and helping giving them the amazing life they deserve. I’ve worked with animals from puppies to animals with anxiety to animals that were both blind and deaf. I’m looking forward to meeting your furry friends! I am currently working part time at a daycare, along with being a full time theatre student. I am available on weekends as of right now, but once summer comes, I will have open availability! I will follow whatever set schedule you provide, including feeding and play if applicable. I love cuddling with the fur babies or I love taking them outside, whatever they prefer!
About: I have been around animals since I was a little girl and absolutely love taking care of them. I currently have a 7 year old cat and 3 German Shepherds, Diesel who is 13, Harley who is 5, and Quinn who is 4. They are incredibly sweet and loving and have truly made me learn the upmost responsibility of animals. I also was a massage therapist for 8 years and use to massage some elderly pets with hip issues. My boyfriend and I live on 10 acres of land and I wanted to take the opportunity to make it a loving and open environment for dogs to run and have fun instead of sitting in their crates at home. I am currently in the process of making sure it's safe and secure before I put out boarding, but for now I am open for drop ins and dog walking! I am an entertainer and student whom works from home who has plenty of time to take care of your babies when you are busy. Just let me know :) I luckily have an incredibly flexible schedule as I primarily do Rover, groceries deliveries for Walmart, and take courses and tests to gain experience in my cybersecurity field. I am my own boss and an able to adjust things in order to work with other's schedule. Taking care of animals is all about making sure THEY are comfortable first, as well as you that I will be with them. These animals are your family and I want you to be just as comfortable as they are. In reality, I tend to let the animals run the course until they truly trust me. I don't like using force with animal and truly treat them like little children/babies who are full of so much potential. My animals are trained so I understand the disciplinary course, but when it comes to care for them? The focus is to make sure they are happy, comfortable, have everything they need, and are relaxed. That is my upmost focus.
About: I Service the Rockwall/Greenville/Sulphur Springs and surrounding areas. Pet training/Boarding/Sitting/Care is my full time job. My service is a high end service where your pet is pampered. I started this line of work because I could not find any services that were high end for my own pup “Soccer”. My website goes into more detail on my about page. Our pet care is a VIP (very important pet) experience. Your pet will stay as a guest in my home (or when caring for them in your environment) and be treated as a member of the family. You will start with a consultation and a chance to see my home and meet me. All of your pets needs will be gone over in great detail. If your pup is able each day your pup will be taken on a walk, played outdoors & Indoors, enjoy treats (if allowed) and so much more. When your pet stays in my home, they have a room dedicated to them. However if they wish they may sleep in my room in their bed or even with me. A GPS tracking device will be on your pet at all times so you never have to fear they could run off or get loose. I keep a detailed file on each pet I care for to be sure to treat them exactly as you would. My goal is to make pet parents feel comfortable with no worries. I send daily pictures as well. Missing your pup? Not to worry video chat can be pre-scheduled at anytime. I foster a healthy, safe, and trustworthy environment for your pets. My home sits on 1 acre, so if your pup needs a lot of outside time, we can do that. If they needs more inside time, that's fine as well. Each pet is so different, and I work hard to learn their personalities so that they have a pawsome time when they are with us. Your pet is my only focus during its stay. No pup is ever unattended. I am always with your pup when they are out doors, and they are alway on leash or in a fenced in area with me by their side. *Please note, I am very selective of what pets and pet parents I will work with. I keep things professional and only work with pups and pet parents who qualify for our service. Safety always comes first. Also, I am a professional dog trainer, if you would like your pup to receive any dog training while you are away, at their drop-in’s or while staying in my home, I can provide this service. I work with dogs who have never been trained up to dogs that just need a small refresher. Pet care is my routine. After our consultation I scheduled my day to fit around your pet’s needs. Whatever schedule they are used to, I try to match that same schedule exactly as if you were here with them. If we are caring for your pet in your home, we again care for your pet according to your specifications. I fit my scheduled around your pets routine as if you were here with them. Now all I need is to meet you and your pet. Because "YOU" are what makes us Pawsome. My reputation and reviews speak for itself. Please visit my website and click on reviews. Pet care is my full time job. We match your pups schedule at home so their digestion stays healthy. We always take pups potty first thing in the morning and before bed. Pet care is my full time job.

About: I grew up with and taking care of big dogs. I’ve taken care of tree litters of dogs over the years and have been dogsitting for the past two years. I’m currently taking a couple summer courses and in between trips before college starts back up, so I have plenty of time to check on and take care of your pets! I love spending time and playing with dogs and cats! I can easily adjust to you and your pets schedules. I can stop in 3-4 times a day to take care and play with them.

About: My mission is to give you peace of mind by making sure your animals feel safe and are loved and well cared for. I’ve always had a love for animals and a passion for caring for them. I have been a pet parent for the past 10 years and have been a part-time pet sitter for friends and family during that time. I have changed careers and am now a full-time pet sitter. I also volunteered at two animal shelters for 5 years. I offer personalized care for your pets based on their needs and routines—whether they’re energetic pups who love to play fetch, or more chill kitties who just need a lap to nap on, I’m happy to accommodate. What makes me stand out? I’m patient, attentive, and truly enjoy spending time with animals. I’ll send you regular updates, so you never have to worry, and I’m happy to follow any special instructions to ensure your pet feels right at home. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy for your pet and I take that responsibility seriously. I am a full-time pet sitter, so I have lots of time to devote to your fur babies. I am available for drop-ins, overnight visits and boarding all throughout the week. I have a fenced in yard with pet turf for your fur babies to run and play. I treat your dogs as if they were my own, providing lots of love and attention. The dogs have free roam of the house including my bed for lots of cuddling.
About: My work has me deployed a few months at a time but then I have a few months home with lots of free time which is what brings me to Rover! Our little farm loves and welcomes all animals so please check our availability and we would love to help if we can. We welcome all breeds and pet sizes as well as maintain a well kept clean environment for our own pets and our furry visitors. We have plenty of space to accommodate a multitude of scenarios that will give you peace of mind that your pet is in good hands! The farm is completely fenced in providing acres of room for your pets to play and stretch their legs out. We take very much pride in our animals being well mannered, obedient and non aggressive towards other animals but have measures in place to separate if need be. Please feel free to contact us and see if we are the right choice for your pets. We are also open to trading services as we may need reliable and trustworthy sitters in the future as well! Thank you! Between deployments, my schedule is usually very open and available. If I am not my wife is sometimes available to step in though. Feel free to contact us for availability We have 9 acres fully fenced with various pastures that can keep animals separate if need be. We also have kennels and barn stalls in addition to space in our home with us. We have a multitude of options available to fit your needs

“Keri was a wonderful sitter for our 4 girls. She followed all instructions and even had to deal with our 3 big storm fear girls in the middle of the night when a thunderstorm moved in. Everyone had their calming treats and got settled in. We communicated frequently since this was her first time to stay at the house and I am a nervous momma. I got pictures and updates and it was wonderful. We will definitely be using her again.”
About: I used to take care and breed dogs with my family when I was younger. Then I began watching friends and families dogs as I got older. I love all animals but especially dogs. I am a junior here at Oklahoma State studying to become a veterinarian. I also have two dogs of my own. Snoopy is a bernidoodle and Mocha is a mutt. They are both rescue dogs. I have two dogs of my own as previously mentioned and I am in college. However, my dogs and I go to the park at least once a day and we go on walks in the morning. In between classes I come home to let them potty and they free roam with feed and water when I am gone. My dogs get baths once or twice a week. They free roam with food and eat when they please. They have plenty of toys to play with and I have two crates here in case I need to crate them.

“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.”


About: I have owned dogs since I was a baby. I have experienced a variety of breeds of dogs since I was a child. I have grown to love dogs just as people, and all dogs deserve to have the attention and love that we as humans receive! I am available Monday-Sunday. I will take care of your pups just like my own.

FAQs for House Sitting - Commerce
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Commerce on Rover is $36.63 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 169 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Commerce. 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 Commerce 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 Commerce 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 Commerce 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 Commerce. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 80% 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.
