About: Hello! My name is Jenna. I'm trying to find someone who needs help taking care of their pets! I love animals and would love to spend time with your furbabies. I enjoy taking walks and having company with me would make the walks so much more exciting. Plus, everyone involved gets some exercise! I have experience taking care of dogs and cats and I am available for short notice care. Thank you and have a wonderful day! I will be available most days unless I already have something scheduled. Please message me and I will see if I can accommodate you. I am available to help with your animals on most days, as long as I do not have a prior engagement. Let me know what you need because I can be flexible with my schedule. At this time, I don't provide care in my home. I am available for dog walking, sitting, and checking in on either cats or dogs.
About: I’m not just a sitter—I live the pet life every day. Between my three dogs, a pig, and a few ducks, I’m used to energy, mess, and all the personality that comes with it. Big dogs, little dogs, sweet pups, stubborn ones—I’ve handled them all. I’ve got six acres for safe running and exploring, plus plenty of time for cuddles when it’s calm. I’ll keep you updated honestly, because I know how it feels to wonder what your pet’s up to. Around here, your dog’s not just watched—they’re part of the crew. Pet care is already part of my daily routine. With dogs of my own, I’m outside and active multiple times a day, so adding your pup into the mix is natural. I work flexible hours and spend most of my time at home, which means I can give plenty of attention, exercise, and check-ins without rushing Caring for pets in my home is simple. If i go outside , we all go outside. If I come inside we all come inside. We all eat breakfast snacks and dinner at the same time. This isn’t something that’s inconvenient or difficult to us. This is our life on the farm.
“Arianna was wonderful, and Piper seemed to really warm up to her and enjoy herself while we were gone. We're thankful for the communication and that the house was left clean after her stay. We will look forward to hiring Arianna again in the future!”
About: I have always had a special place in my heart for animals. It is our responsibility as humans to take the best care of them. Every dog is special and deserves to be attended to appropriately. I am a Waco local and student at MCC studying to become a teacher. I’m currently working part time most weekdays until 6 pm. I can take appointments starting at 6:30 which is perfect during this Texas heat. I wouldn’t mind doing later walks when the weather is cooler. I will always make sure your pet is healthy and happy! My goal is to take extraordinary care of your pet and make sure it has everything it needs
About: With a lifetime of dedicated experience, I offer professional, reliable care for dogs and cats. My philosophy centers on prioritizing your pet's comfort and happiness by treating them as my own. I maintain a safe, stimulating, and consistent routine, including strict adherence to dietary needs and medication administration. My last 3 dogs lived to be 18 or more years old. I even had a Westin that had Addison Disease. I was told she would not live more than a couple of years, but with daily medication and lots of extra care, she lived to be 19 years old. Whether I am walking your dog or providing transportation, I remain vigilant for any signs of distress. I am trained in First Aid and CPR, and I always keep emergency plans ready to ensure your peace of mind. I find great joy in discovering each pet's unique personality and ensuring they feel loved in their own environment. My responsible and empathetic approach ensures your companions are in excellent hands. I look forward to meeting your furry, feathered, or hoofed family members and giving them the dedicated attention they deserve. NOTE: For animal sitting at your home, I will need the flexibility to tend to my own pets and my elderly mother at my home. They will be short visits and I can then return to your home. Im currently in between jobs and available any hours. Once I find a position to close out my career, ill still be available outside of my work schedule. I am open to caring for your pet in my home, depending on type and size. I also have experience with dogs that require medication.
About: I have a year of hands-on experience caring for dogs as a volunteer at the humane society. I am Fear Free certified and have received extensive training in handling and working with dogs to ensure their well-being and comfort. I prioritize their well-being by dedicating time each day to ensure they are happy, entertained, and have all their necessities met. My flexible evening schedule allows me to accommodate their needs, even with last-minute changes. As a passionate pet lover, I am dedicated to providing exceptional care and attention to your beloved pets. Trust me to treat them as if they were my own, ensuring their happiness, health, and well-being every step of the way.
About: I've been doing this for over 15 yrs. I enjoy loving on fur babies and playing with them. It fills my heart with lots of joy. I'm a full time house & pet sitter. I'm available 24/7. I also work holidays! I rarely take time for myself, so choose me please! I am great at keeping a schedule & following your routine. I am not afraid of special needs babies. Ex: diapers, meds or anything else
About: I started pet sitting while working as a vet assistant throughout college. I now enjoy caring for furbabies of all sizes for fun. I feel I provide them safe stimulation while they bring me non-stop joy. I am happy to provide extra services (nail clipping, teeth brushing, bathing) when needed. I am also comfortable with nuances of feeding a raw diet to your furbabies as I have kept all of mine on this regimen for over 10 years now. I am happy to keep your dogs on strict leash walks, take to off leash parks or work on any training youre seeking while out of town or unable to be around in sudden moments. You can feel at ease knowing your fur family will be loved and well cared for!
About: Howdy! I have primarily watched my siblings and neighbors pets. I love animals and will take care of your pet to the best of my ability! I am a full time nurse but I typically work 3-4 days a week. My schedule varies so really just depends on what your needs are. I take care of them by making sure they have all the necessities including affirmation, play time, and long walks. I love taking care of animals and see it as a privilege to be trusted with the responsibility!
About: Hi! My name is Brooke H. I have been babysitting/ animal sitting my entire life. I have a natural & maternal instinct for dogs/cats/any animal. They’re just babies and they should be treated as such. I have good recommendations and would love to make you, and your dogs world! :) walks, good food, treats, play dates with my dogs if wanted! :) I have two little dogs of my own, they are my entire world. When i wake up, they’re the first thing i care for, and when i go to bed- they’re the first to be taken care of! Osha 10 certified. Cpr certified. I act fast, i’ve dealt with aggressive dogs, friendly dogs, lazy dogs haha - anything that you can think of!
About: I love animals. To add to that, dogs and cats love me and typically come up to me for love and attention. I also talk to them like I would a baby.. that's not weird, right? I work full time 6 days, but typically have 3 consecutive days off, so I can give your pets the attention they need as long as you need it. I can stop by in the evenings on workdays or anytime on my days off. My dog and cats are all indoor pets. They do not step foot outside sadly. They are very delicate to the environment here in Texas. I feed them 3 times a day and they receive fresh water.

FAQs for House Sitting - Delia
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 120 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Delia. 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 Delia 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 Delia 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 Delia 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.

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.
