“Brianna was excellent. Best experience with an overnight sitter that we’ve had. She communicated with us frequently, sent lots of photos of our dog, and was respectful of our home while she was in it. We didn’t feel anxious or worried about being away from our senior dog because Brianna's care was top notch and put us at ease. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Emma is our go-to sitter! She’s amazing with our baby and communicates and checks in frequently. Very respectful of the house and belongings as well. Can’t say enough positive things about her.”
“Finding Addison was truly a blessing. Our original pet sitting plans fell through at the very last minute, and I was so fortunate to find her when I did. From the moment I met her, I just had a great feeling. She has such a kind, calming personality, and all of my dogs immediately took to her—which never happens! They’re usually very reserved with new people and take time to warm up, but with Addison it was instant. That alone gave me so much confidence. Throughout our trip, Addison kept me updated every single day without me ever having to ask. She sent photos, shared what the dogs and cats were up to, and made me feel like I was right there with them. She followed every instruction perfectly and honestly went above and beyond in so many ways. One of the sweetest surprises was coming home to little things she had done around the house that I never asked her to do. She even emptied the dishwasher and put all the dishes away. When I thanked her, she said her mom always taught her that after a trip, people should come home to a clean house so they can truly relax. That really touched me. Kudos to Addison—and to her mom—for raising such an incredible young woman. The greatest gift she gave me was peace of mind. Knowing my dogs and cats were loved, cared for, and genuinely enjoying their time with her allowed me to fully enjoy my vacation without worrying about them. That’s priceless. I already have another trip planned, and Addison will absolutely be my first choice. I cannot recommend her highly enough. She exceeded every expectation, and I am beyond grateful to have found her.”
“Casandra was a total blessing. Our fur baby took a little to warm up like any GSD would but by the end she was hanging out and happy around Casandra. She went above and beyond when a bad storm came through and cared for our fur baby, and also when she ripped up her bed and took care of that too when she didn’t have to. We will definitely ask her to babysit for us again!”
“Torrie was absolutely exceptional in watching our fur babies, and she took good care of our house too. She made sure our girls felt so loved and just like her own. We definitely would like her to sit for us in the future.”
“Adriana is amazing with our fur babies. She communicates often, sends pictures and loves them like they were her own. We always feel better leaving knowing they are safe with her.”
“Outstanding! Stephanie has been our house/pet sitter twice this year. We can't say enough positives about her abilities to care for our three pets (1 large dog and 2 cats). She's great at communicating, sends pics/updates, and handles any incidental items (mail/trash/packages on the porch). We have a ton of confidence in her. More importantly, our pets are pampered (including multiple walks for the big dog - his favorite activity). Thanks again for everything you do. We already booked Stephanie for two more vacations later this year. We are glad to have found Stephanie through Rover!”
“Reilly did a phenomenal job house and pet sitting. Her communication put us at ease and she asked very thoughtful questions. She absolutely looked after our home and pets like they were her own. Can’t recommend her enough!”
“I cannot recommend Janea enough! From the moment we booked, communication was seamless and professional. She kept us updated with regular messages, photos, and videos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs absolutely loved her—and it’s clear she truly care for the pets she looks after as if they were their own. She followed all instructions perfectly and even went the extra mile with playtime, offered walks, and cuddles. We came home to a happy, healthy, and well-loved pups! If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, caring, and incredibly communicative, Jenae is the one. We’ll definitely be booking again!”
About: I absolutely love animals, I have grown up with them throughout my entire life, Dog's are especially special to me, I have had one by my side since I was old enough to know what a dog was. I would be a great pet sitter because I love meeting all critters and creatures and I would take care of your animal like my own . I have 2 fur-children of my own, Major Tom (Maine Coon) & Penny (Dachshund). They are my world! I do have experience as a veterinary receptionist/vet tech and worked at Southridge animal Hospital for four years. I am well-versed in how to do diabetic injections, giving animals their medication’s on schedule, making sure they have a healthy diet and exercise. I have a deep knowledge of animal behavior. I want to keep all animals, healthy, and safe and loved! Looking forward to taking care of some furry little angels! I have no problem spending extra time, snuggling and playing and just being there for comfort . Animals get lonely and honestly getting the chance to hang out and love on them and spend some extra time does not bother me at all! I would pet it for a lot of the clients that came to the animal hospital. I worked at and I do still see a couple from time to time when they need it and having a medical background with animals is very useful at times and an understanding of animal medicine. Hope to get to meet your loved ones! I am currently working part-time so I will have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies needs! I am very flexible and I was born and raised in Denton Texas so I know the area very well. I know where all the dog parks are. I can walk with them give them baths, even nail trims from when I learned at the animal hospital. I have a fenced in backyard if your pets ever needed to come to my house, I also have crates and my siblings have extra pins for their kids that work well for puppies that I could always bring over if need be and baby gates. I do also have extra leashes.
“Brad was amazing with my pup and took great care Of my beta fish as well. He gave daily pupdates and provided lots of photos so I could relax and know Alamo was in good hands”

About: I've been a dog lover my entire life. I was a nanny and executive personal assistant for over 25 years to a family and their pets. Then started my dog care business once the child went to collage. I've had my own private dog business, professional, and private Hollywood celebrities clients. I currently just moved back to the Dallas area and looking to fill my days loving and caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes. I have a questionnaire to be filled out to know about your routine. I like to stick to what works for you and your family not to disrupt the dogs schedule.
“5 stars does not do Lisa any justice. She is truly the best sitter we have ever had. She has helped us last min and we can’t thank her enough! Our fur babies just love her!! Lisa is any amazing person! We highly recommend!!!”
“Tania is the best! This is the second time she’s been our sitter and both times have been wonderful! We have two Great Danes and they’re not exactly the easiest, but she handles them so well. I would totally recommend Tania to be your sitter!”
“Hannah was absolutely wonderful! She watched our three boxers for 10 days while we were away on vacation, and we could not have asked for a better experience. She followed all of our instructions exactly and went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for, comfortable, and loved while we were gone. Taking care of three boxers is no small task, but Hannah handled everything with confidence, patience, and care. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such good hands. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pups, and we are so grateful for everything she did. We would highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

Brianna is absolutely wonderful! She is so gentle, patient, and attentive with my fur babies, and I can tell she genuinely cares about making sure they’re happy and comfortable while I’m away. She’s also incredibly communicative and sends regular pictures and updates, which gives me so much peace of mind and really helps ease my stress when I have to leave them. Knowing they’re being loved on and well cared for makes traveling so much easier. I’m so grateful to have found her and would absolutely recommend Brianna to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their babies! 💛🐾
We had a wonderful experience with Ashlee! She was incredibly responsive, reliable, and attentive throughout her stay. She took great care of both our dog and cat and made sure all of their needs were met. She also took great care of our home and kept us updated with regular pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We came home to happy pets and a well cared for house. We would absolutely recommend her and would love to have her sit for us again!
I can’t say enough good things about June. I haven’t left my cat, who I consider my baby, alone in over two years. She’s become very attached to me lately so I was a bit anxious with leaving her with anyone. Before committing, I met with June and after a good meeting, my fears were completely gone. I couldn’t have found a better person to take care of my Baba. June is a very responsible and caring person. She sent photos my cat daily and I could clearly see that my cat did NOT miss me. LOL. When I returned home, my house was better than when I left. Spotless and she even changed the sheets, washed them and made the bed. An added bonus, she knew exactly when I would be home and had the garage door open so all I had to do was pull in. I couldn’t have been happier. I HIGHLY recommend her to take care of your pet. I’d give her 10 stars if I could.
Kimber was brave to sit my 5 month old high energy puppy and did a great job! She was very responsive to my texts and sent pictures everyday. The house looked great when I arrived home. I would definitely recommend Kimber and hope to use her again as my puppy grows!

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 Cross Roads 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 Cross Roads 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Cross Roads 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!

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 .
