About: I’m a big dog lover and truly enjoy giving dogs all the love, attention, and care they deserve. I’m kind, patient, loving, and reliable, and I always make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I understand that every dog is different, so I’m happy to follow their individual routines and needs. I’m also very good at communicating and will keep you updated about how your dog is doing, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Most importantly, I’ll treat your dog like family! I work part-time and attend college, but I take time management very seriously and maintain a flexible schedule with plenty of free time. I also care for my own fur baby at home, which has helped me develop a strong sense of responsibility and consistency when it comes to pet care. I’m able to plan my schedule around the needs of the pets I care for and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I care for every pet with the same love, attention, and responsibility that I give my own fur baby. At home, I take her on walks every morning, make sure she always has fresh water, and give her treats and her favorite peanut butter. My family and I give her plenty of attention, including cuddles, affection, and companionship. She especially loves sunbathing and relaxing in her favorite chair with me! When caring for a client’s pet, I’m very open to learning and following their individual routine, preferences, and needs. I understand that every dog is different, and I want to make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, happy, and loved while in my care.

“Emily was wonderful! She took great care of my dog while I was at work during the week. He's been having some problems with his eye and she was diligent in giving me updates and helping him any way she could. She even gave him a bath for me! Would give more than 5 stars if I could!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Cross Timber
We love Tayler so much! This was our first time booking an actual cat sitter service and Tayler combined with the rover app made it so easy to book. With a short notice Tayler was able to watch our chonky kitty, taco. We wanted to book someone that would be reliable and bond with taco immediately. Within our first consultation, we immediately knew Tayler was the perfect fit. Communication and ability to accommodate us on such a short notice was greatly appreciated! Taco loved her when it came to playtime and with the photos sent to us from rover we knew he had a good time. :) Tayler is trustworthy with home sitting and respectful regarding any requests we had. We will love to book her for longer stays in the near future. if you are feeling doubtful, all your worries will drift away once you and your companion meet Tayler!
Heather is an amazing cat sitter! I felt completely comfortable knowing my cats were in such caring and dependable hands. She was attentive, reliable, and made sure my kitties were well taken care of while I was away. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Heather was there. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful, caring cat sitter! 🐾❤️
My booking was last minute and I wasnt able to get my usual sitter, however Heather saved rhe day. She did an amazing job with my babies! She made sure to keep in contact when she would be delayed even if by 1 hour. I really appreciated the open communication. The food area was clean and the litter box did NOT smell. Wonderful job! I will be using Heather again.
Jasmine did a great job handling our three dogs while we were out of town. She always arrived on the schedule we asked her to, provided their food/medicine when they needed them, and sent us pictures along the way. I would highly recommend Jasmine as your petsitter. We will use her again, she did a great job!
Lauren was amazing! Very friendly and loving on our 3 babies! Great communication, with detailed notes and pictures. Arrived on time for each drop in and met their unique needs. She even pivoted on the plan when the weather got too cold - thanks for looking out for them! 10/10!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Cross Timber is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $27 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 3,385 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Cross Timber. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cross Timber. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
