“Lee was fantastic! Tilly was happy and had plenty of exercise. Our home was left in wonderful condition. Lee communicated with us well and forwarded great "glamour shots" of Tilly. I highly recommend him.”
“Caleb was great to work with. He was really good at communicating with us. Our kids were anxious to leave our dog (7 yrs old), who has never been left with anyone other than family. Caleb helped ease their fears. He took Diesel on some great outings (to the lake, pond)! He sent us so many pictures during diesels 2 day stay. He was great at keeping us updated!”
“Hayley was super-attentive and it was always very obvious that she loves taking care of the kitties and chickens. I would definitely recommend her and would ask her for her services again in the future.”

About: I've taken care of 4 dogs and 1 cat for their natural lives. Friends, relatives and neighbors ask me often to pet sit, as they know I am very loving and reliable. I'm retired and so I have the ability. to take care of dogs at anytime, and I love having animals around me. Dogs are amazing companions! I have a fenced yard, and love walking and playing with dogs. I will follow any rules the clients suggest. I can give medications as needed, and train dogs also.
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life and have always loved caring for animals. I also worked at a veterinary clinic as a kennel technician, where I cared for dogs and cats by feeding them, cleaning their spaces, exercising them, and making sure they were comfortable and well cared for. I as well have house sit and dog sit many times for family or family friends. My experience has taught me how to recognize animals’ needs, handle pets of different personalities, and provide patient, reliable care. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule. I’m available most weekdays and on weekends, and I’m committed to providing reliable, care for you and your pets needs. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll follow your care instructions, keep your pet on their normal routine, and provide plenty of love, attention, and playtime.
About: Hello! Are you going out of town or simply needing a night out? I'm your girl! I've been a dog owner my whole life. I've worked at a dog daycare watching 20+ dogs in the same play area and foster dogs for a few rescues! I have worked as a vet tech, pet sitter, dog walker, etc. Most of my life has been dedicated to animals. I am comfortable handling medical needs and medications. With me, your pets will be loved as if they're my own. I also have years of experience with farm animals (horses, sheep, goats, chicken, pigs) and reptiles! I would love to watch your precious pets while unleashing love, one tail wag at a time 🐾 💕 I offer deals for military and first responders. I have plenty of time to accommodate your pets care and routine. If needed, I'm able to spend some extra time with your pet just to make sure they're all settled before leaving. Safety is very important to me, I will request that all thats needed to go on walks be left out in an area thats easy to find. I can crate any pet is needed. I always take pictures when I first see the pet and when I leave them.. if any concerns pop up, I will make sure to communicate them to you.
“Shawny is AMAZING!!! She has a great calm personality that my cattle dogs really loved! The place looks great, she cleaned up after herself. Lots and lots of pictures, great communication. You can tell she genuinely loved spending time with your pets. I would recommend to anyone!”
“Dario is a perfect match for our Husky, Boris. I needed to travel overnight for work and had not left Boris overnight unattended before. I was having a difficult time to find someone that wanted to go on long walks. Dario walked Boris 7 miles the first day and 4 miles the morning before I returned, WOW! He sent pictures, watered plants and spent the night on the daybed cuddling with our dog. I am so glad we met him and will use him next time we travel. Thank you!”
About: I have owned dogs of my own and sat for multiple friends and family. I also volunteer with the Minneapolis pound and have a lot of experience with all breeds and sizes. I absolutely adore dogs and promise to take exceptional care of your pup! I work 3 days a week leaving me with extra time to dog walk and watch your fur baby. I am able to travel for pick ups and drop offs. I love taking walks so your pet can get some energy out. I also pay close attention to directions on how you like your pet cared for.
“We had a last minute change in our pet sitting situation just a few days before we went out of country. Maritza not only responded quickly, but collaborated to make adjustments to fit our needs, timeline, and budget. She was stellar at caring for our animals while we were gone, cared for our home and hopefully was also able to relax and enjoy our home. She helped us navigate a health issue with our cat that came up and promptly took our cat to the local vet and came back to continue her care. Maritza was communicative, collaborative, kind, respectful, followed our instructions spectacularly and was open to feedback that made everyone feel comfortable and supported. So happy we found her last minute and hope to keep using her as often as both our needs and schedules permit. She did fall in love with our little dog, so who knows how many little doggy friends she might have now - this really speaks to her love of animals for sure! So grateful for all she did for our large crew of animals!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 77 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dallas. 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 Dallas 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 Dallas 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 Dallas 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
