“Emma did a great job woth Winifred, Vee, & Piper while my wife & I were away for the weekend. She gave updates and made sure to take care of Vee especially (she is a newer member to the family and being a facility resuce, has some special needs). She is highly recommended.”
“Having Ren stay with our girls was a great decision. She sent regular updates with pics and vids. You could tell in the video's just how comfortable our girls were with her. Having her at our house made our vacation so much better. And to top it off, where we got home, we couldn't even tell that she had been there. Even the dogs toys were put away. We will definitely be calling on Ren to stay with our girls again.”
“This was the 1st time in a long time to be away from our 3 kids. Ashley was great. She send pictures of our fur babies and made sure they were taken care of. The acid test was when we returned. Betty did not want Ashley to leave! Looking forward to having her for our next outing.”
“Hannah did so amazing with my boy! She went above and beyond to make me feel at ease leaving my dog for the weekend! She sent so many pictures and updates! Could not recommend her more!”
“Marin was so amazing with our two girls. She was responsive and sent pictures daily. Our two golden-doodles are not old so no special care necessarily but they are very needy. When we got home the house looked perfect and most importantly our two girls were so happy. That tells me she did a good job because sometimes they will act a little mad at us for leaving them. We will def. ask her again if we need to leave Phoebe and Ellie. Thanks Marin you’re amazing!”
“Hannah was beyond patient and flexible with our anxious dog!! She knew exactly what he needed and when. She kept us updated the entire time and was quick to respond. We will definitely use her again!”
“Alee was above and beyond when watching my pup!! She was there when she said she would be, sent me tons of pictures, and really interactive with my pup. I really appreciate how easy she was to work with and how trustworthy she proved to be. overall a truly great experience!!”
“Jessie was a wonderful sitter for our dog and took great care with our home. She communicated often, sent us great updates and did everything we asked her to. Our home was as clean as it was when we left it and our pup was very happy!”
“Abigail was very communicative and sent lots of pics while we were away. This made us feel like she was being cared for and reassured. We will definitely book again if a need arises!”
“Brie was amazing. She checked on Jax for us while we were out of town, and we could tell she genuinely enjoyed spending time with him. It made us feel so much better knowing he wasn’t just being checked on, but actually getting attention from someone who cared. She was reliable, easy to communicate with, and made the whole thing stress-free. We’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a great pet sitter. Thanks, Brie!”
“Really great! They were so kind to my nervous boy and kept me updated! Having an anxious and scared dog is always hard to leave with new people and I felt completely at ease for both my boys!”
About: I have watched animals since I was younger whether it was my own pets or someone else’s. I have watched many of my family and friends animals and they have recommended me to their friends. I currently am a student-athlete at the University of North Texas, but I still have free time to be able to care and play with your animals! I am usually more available in the evenings and most weekends all day. I’m very attentive to their routines. I am able to take your pet outside to use the bathroom. I am able to crate your pet if needed. I’m also happy to follow specific feeding, medication, or bedtime routines so your pet can stay as comfortable as possible. I have a cat at my apartment that is able to keep them company.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life. From large German shepherds to Yorkis to cats, cats and more cats (I own 3). I’m comfortable around all types of dogs and cats and I’ve cared for many types. I love animals and I thought why not use that passion and turn it into a service I can offer to others! I hope I hope I can continue to learn from ya’lls amazing animals and become an even more experienced pet sitter/walker and lover! I’m available for drop in visits, walks, etc any time during the day. I am currently starting my own business so I have the freedoms to come and go to work as needed. Preferably would be in the morning or evening but I can work with you and your pet’s schedule! I will be sure to walk any dogs through safe, clean and comfortable environments. Personally I shower my own cats with cuddles and playing tag. They always catch me… I know how important our little friends are to each and every one of us so that’s why your pets safety will be my top priority when they are with me!
“William is a very polite young man. He was punctual, did everything I asked to take care of my Amarie girlie. Amarie has a rough history of abuse and do not trust humans easily. I was so anxious as this were our first without our doggie and making use of a sitter. She was calm with him and they even hanged out together on the night he stayed over, 😁. He left her with a goodbye and treats. I will recommend him anytime and sure I will be a repeat client.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Denton is $50

Elizabeth was fantastic! We have senior dogs and sometimes they need a little extra help. She communicated everything through the duration of our booking and sent pictures of all our pets. She truly cares for your pets so I would definitely recommend her services.
Jo did a great job with my very demanding wobbly cat. She frequently has accidents peeing over the side of the litter box while attempting to hold herself steady. She will not use the litter box at all unless it has just been scooped. I have trouble myself getting rid of the smells from these accidents, but I came home to a very clean litter box and no accident stains or smells. She was also immediately friendly and not skiddish like she has been when left in the past.
This was the 1st time in a long time to be away from our 3 kids. Ashley was great. She send pictures of our fur babies and made sure they were taken care of. The acid test was when we returned. Betty did not want Ashley to leave! Looking forward to having her for our next outing.
Highly recommend Catherine. She was great with Maddie and provided me with updates. Maddie was a happy pup when I got home and felt great knowing she was taken care of when I was out of town. I will definitely have Catherine watch Maddie in the future. Thank you!
This is our second time using Jaclyn, and we truly cannot recommend her enough! We recently added a new puppy to our family, so she had her hands full caring for all three of our dogs, and she was absolutely outstanding. After having a traumatic experience leaving our pet at boarding, I have a lot of anxiety about leaving our dogs in someone else's care. From the very beginning, Jaclyn has completely put my mind at ease. She is incredibly attentive, loving, and treats our pups as if they were her own. One of the things I appreciate most is the constant communication. She sends so many photos and updates throughout her visits, which gives us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs are happy, safe, and receiving so much love and attention while we're away. Finding someone you can genuinely trust with your pets is priceless, and Jaclyn is exactly that person. We are beyond grateful for the incredible care she provides and will continue booking with her whenever we need a pet sitter. She is simply the best!
Jo was such a great caretaker for Ripley. We needed a last minute dogsitter for our holiday weekend and Jo really came through. Ripley is disabled and high anxiety, but Jo really made her feel at home. Frequent photo updates, detailed potty and medication schedule. I would trust Jo with Ripley any time!
Kaegan watched our dogs over the weekend and did a great job. She was responsible, dependable, and took good care of them while we were away. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. We would definitely recommend Kaegan and would be happy to use her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Denton on Rover is $39.41 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 3,315 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Denton. 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 Denton 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 Denton 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 Denton 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.
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.
