“We had such a wonderful experience with Rebecca! She took amazing care of our dogs and kept us updated throughout the day with messages and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We could tell our dogs were happy and comfortable the entire time. I would absolutely trust her again. Highly recommend!”
“I would highly recommend Michelle. Michelle took care of both of my dogs over the weekend, and she did an excellent job. They were happy and well cared for when I returned.”
About: We have been sitters on Rover for over three years off and on now. We love this platform! It is a wonderful way for us to have the exposure to dogs that we crave. Kimberly- Growing up my family almost always had a dog. I know that dogs are so important to every owner and may times they are like their own kids. I want each dog we watch to feel loved and cared for. It’s so hard to be separated from your beloved pooch but my hope is that when we sit your pup you feel at peace by our pictures and updates and your dog feels at home by our care. Kimmy- I am a stay at home mom with a 4 yr old who is craaaazy about dogs. We also have a one-year-old, who is all about the furry entertainment. Most days we are around and free. It is such a treat for us to have a furry friend around us to fill our days with some fun and love. My husband, Jagger also works from home and enjoys to have dogs around as well! We have a fenced yard. We can only have kid friendly dogs stay with us as our 4 year old and one year old will be playing with them. Our fence is not a 6 foot tall fence so if your dog has a tendency to jump fences shorter than that, we will not be able to host them.
“Caleb did a great job with our 3 dogs we had one that needed meds twice a day and he did great. I would recommend him to sit your fur babies he stayed at our home and left it clean.”
About: I have a gentle and loving spirit. I accept all animals into my world. The more the better! I have a lot of love to give. I work part time so I have plenty of extra time to spend with all the pets. I love being outside and going for walks and spending time with animals as much as I can. Whenever I'm with any pets, they have my full attention and care. I'm happy to sit with pets as long as needed and give them the love and care.
About: I'm a stay at home mom of 6 kids and have many pets. I have had dogs and other pets all of my life. I have obedience training knowledge, and have trained all of my dogs. I'm a stay at home mom, so I'm able to provide quality attention. Dogs are let outside every hour (shorter times when weather is hot). I live in a friendly neighborhood to go on nice walks. I have a decent sized yard with an 8 foot tall fence. Thank you for your time and hope to meet soon! *other animal care too* I take care of animals all day every day. My schedule is mostly open, other than kids' activities. Summer schedule is different than when school is in session. I have a large yard with secure fencing. Also can crate your furry friend at night if necessary. I want to treat them like you do in your own home.
About: I love dogs and cats and I've been caring for them since I was a teenager. I currently have three dogs and two cats that I deeply cherish. They're not pets, they're family. I have five years of experience volunteering at pet shelters where I've fed, exercised, bathed, trained, and cuddled hundreds of cats and dogs of all breeds and sizes. I'm a retired IT guy and pet-sitting is my full-time gig, now. I've chosen paws and whiskers over 1's and O's. It was a no-brainer because, the older I get, the more i connect with pets and enjoy the finer nuances of their personalities. I'm available for pet-sitting, dog-walking or house-sitting weekdays and most weekends. I will be happy to sit with your pets at your home or watch over your home while you're away. I'll feed them, walk them, brush them, play with them, or just hang-out and keep them company. We'll do a meet and greet before your first booking to introduce me to your pets, facilities, food, etc,...
About: Hi, I'm Haley and I have over 10 years of experience as a veterinary technician. I have had the pleasure of working with a range of animals including cats and dogs. I am skilled in medication administration as well as animal behavior and handling. It would be a pleasure to be part of your pets care team. I currently have a flexible schedule and am available for walks, drop in visits and overnight stays. I look forward to working with your pet(s)! I will work with you to provide excellent care for your pet within your own home. I am willing to take dogs in my home as long as they get along well with my own dogs and cat. I am unable to watch cats within my home at this time.
About: I have had pets for most of my life. Love them More than most people! I am retired so I’m super open and flexible. I’m happy to send references since I’m new to this service. I am a retired Executive Recruiter and find that what I want to do with most of my time is play and engage with animals. I am semi-retired so I’m completely flexible and usually available at a moment's notice. Overnights are welcomed and mostly my preference (50 miles from Sherman) but I’m always willing to help out daily on a regular basis within 6 miles of Sherman. My babies are my life! Spoiled yet disciplined. I own boxers, two of them, and they are my forever children, goofy, protective and so loving. I provide a safe and loving environment and would protect them with my life.
About: I’ve grown up on a farm & helped raise dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, cows, ducks, & hamsters! I have a love for all animals :) I am a law student, so when I’m not in class, I can drop in to care for your pet! I’m also available anytime on weekends! I have a fenced yard for your fur baby to play in. I also have a male (neutered) dog who just turned two. He’s very friendly and trained! I have a large crate if your pet needs to be crated for any reason, otherwise they are welcome to snuggle on my couch or bed with me!!
“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.”
“Teyler is amazing! So glad we found him. Great communication, my pup loves him. He has knowledge and skill when it comes to training and patience like I’ve never seen. Great find on Rover and will 100% use again”
“Amy was AMAZING!! We booked her to stay at our place with our two dogs. She took great care of them and our home. We truly value her and will definitely book with her again and again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

About: I have dogsat for around 3 years now both small dogs like mine and big australian shepards. I care for children as well. 💗 💗 I attend class 10-2 pm. So that gives me plenty of time for morning restroom breaks & check-ins, and im free afterwards (unless im babysitting) I would make sure to not disturb their peace but also make them feel love and give them all the necessary attention they may need.
“Louann is a great pet sitter! She is a very experienced & an extremely knowledgeable dog owner and sitter. Her expertise & compassion is evident from her years of rescue work. She was very much at ease at our meet and greet and made our dog, cat, & us feel very comfortable. She kept me updated on how things were going while we were away. I never worried because I knew our pets and our home were in capable & trustworthy hands. She's definitely a keeper!”
“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!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Denison
This is Rebecca’s second time to watch the dogs for a week. She is great at sending daily photos and notifying if something seems off. She left the house just like it was when she came to stay. She had to keep two girls separate this stay due to heat cycles, hormones and fighting. I breed Shih Tzu’s, so I try to work around heat cycles and puppies to be there with them. But, this time it didn’t work out. She is always respectful of my place and seems to care about my babies as they were her own. I would definitely recommend her! And will be booking her again soon.
Rebecca is AMAZING!! She did such a good job with our pups and took great care of the house while we were away. She sent a TON of pictures every day and kept in touch regularly. Can't recommend her highly enough, our pups are still talking about how great she is lol!

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 Denison 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 Denison 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 Denison 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 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.
