“10/10 Ren took excellent care of the fur babies and left the house uncannily like she found it (maybe cleaner??). She followed instructions to the tee, even going above and beyond for the fish, and sent cute pics while we were on vacation. Everybody was fed and cheerful when we arrived home.”

About: I have always had a passion for all types of animals all of my life. I have owned many in my lifetime from small to big and of course a cat lover too! In my younger years I owned and operated a pet sitting service for 10 years, which I enjoyed tremendously! I then expanded to owning and operating natural pet food stores for 16 years. Recently I have sold my business and moved to Texas being with family and now looking forward to be of service to you and your pets! I am new to Rover but my knowledge and experience in pet care is vast and wide. I have worked with many holistic vets through the years and happy to share my knowledge if you are looking for that. I am also experienced in administering medications and insulin for dogs and cats. I am also well versed in puppies, kittens and senior pet care. If your pet requires great exercise I walk 8 miles a day and love walking and know how to get their wiggles out so you can rest assured a happy dog when you come back home! I strive in clear communication while you are away on the care & safety of your pets and home while you are away. I look forward to the opportunity to caring for your pets when you can't be there. I have a very open schedule and I am available any day of the week and times that work with the schedule of you & your pets. Safety is the number one. I will go over details with you prior to make sure your pets and home are in safe keeping, so I know where your dog or cat is typically located/kept in or out of the home and all doors and fences are always secure. It is a detail that I am very particular about!

“We booked Kaylen for house sitting with our two cats and two dogs for a few days while we were out of town and I can’t say enough great things about her! The animals instantly warmed to her and we loved receiving the photo updates each day. She walked the dogs each morning and even gave them a little grooming while we were gone! Truly an overall 10/10 experience and we are so thankful she was available to stay with our pets!”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a horse farm surrounded by all kinds of animals, so caring for pets has always been a big part of my life. I’ve always felt comfortable around animals of all sizes, including big dogs and pets with unique personalities or needs. I have 7+ years of experience with pet sitting, dog walking, and overnight stays, and I’ve cared for dogs with all different temperaments and energy levels. I love getting to know each pet’s personality, keeping them comfortable in their routine, and making sure they feel happy and cared for while their owners are away. I have a 10 year old cat named Humphrey who is my absolute pride and joy. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. I’d love the chance to meet your furry friends and give them the love, attention, and care they deserve! I recently graduated college this April and have moved in with my parents in Northlake. I am currently job searching which means my schedule is very flexible, and I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets! Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and love making part of my daily routine. I’m able to provide plenty of attention, walks, playtime, companionship, and care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking buddy, a calm presence while you’re away, or someone to keep them company overnight, I’m happy to help. My flexible schedule allows me to be reliable, attentive, and present for your furry friends when they need it most. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I always start by learning each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free for them. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping their pets on their normal schedule: following feeding instructions, maintaining their routines, providing walks, playtime, attention, and plenty of affection. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel connected and confident while you’re away! I understand that every animal is different, and I’m always mindful of their boundaries, energy level, and individual personality.
“Christiana went above and beyond caring for our 15 yo Havanese. She was tasked with caring for an elderly dog with a slew of meds and strict feeding regimen. Not to mention giving my high anxiety dog a ton of attention. She stayed at our house, and when we got back, our house was cleaner than when we left it. She sent me updates daily and even left us a family gift. She made leaving town easier, and because of her I was able enjoy a nice family vacation with our college boys. I will be booking her again! Thank you Christiana!”

“Callie is the BEST pup sitter! She listened to us describe Milo's personality and our expectations. She followed our requests to the letter. She sent a precious picture of Milo sound asleep on her lap. He was such a happy puppy when we arrived home, but wasn't whining or crying. He had clearly been well cared for!! We will definitely call on Callie again, and again!! We highly recommend her!!”


“Kathleen is very kind and kept me updated while I was gone. When I got back Junebug looked like she had an amazing stay-cation with Kathleen. My house was in better condition than I left it as well. A++++”

“Ann did a stellar job staying and caring for our two dogs in our home while we were on vacation. We recently moved in and don’t have our fence up yet and Ann did great navigating taking them out on leash for bathroom breaks. We received ample updates and photos, communication was prompt, and Ann left our home in a clean condition. Our dogs were happy and well looked after and we would use Ann again in the future. We highly recommend!”
About: I've had pets since I was a child and I've always loved them like they were my children. Now I watch my children love our pets! We enjoy having pets in our home to cuddle with, play with and spoil! I am a school teacher with summers off. I am home with my two children from the end of May to the beginning of August. When pets are in our home they are shown loads of attention and love. They have regular potty breaks and have a big fenced in yard to play in.
About: I have been a passionate pet owner for the last 20 years, as well as a veterinary assistant, foster/rescue advocate, and trainer. I am a licensed human nurse currently working as a stay at home mom, but absolutely love working with animals of all kinds, and wish to continue to help pets and their families in any way that I can. Because of my unique experiences, our home is a wonderful place for me to continue to be involved in pet care and training, and for pet parents to seek skilled quality care. I have been trained in various animal medical skills such as pill administration, injections, subcutaneous fluid administration, topical skin medication/eye medication administration and basic first aid, so caring for animals with ongoing medical needs, mobility restrictions, or medical conditions related to advanced age are not outside of my skill level. My husband Jonathan and I have 3 sweet, well supervised, and well behaved children, and can provide a wonderful boarding or daycare environment for pets that have anxiety with child exposure. There is always someone home when there is a guest pet present, and they are given access to the same amenities that we enjoy- comfy furniture, plenty of safe places to play with close supervision, toys for enrichment, and a clean place to do their "business". Our own dogs have been very well socialized and enjoy the opportunity to interact and play with new friends of all sizes and species. They are excellent with dogs of all sizes as well as cats and exotic pets. I know that routine is very important for some pets, and that disruption of typical routine can cause anxiety. Because they're is always someone home, we can follow care instructions closely to try to emulate the routine that your pet is familiar with. Our home is just shy of 2,000 square feet on 3 acres and has a large fenced back yard for potty and play. Pets will NOT be left outside unsupervised at any time. We do have a covered patio in the back yard as well for shade, and will provide cool, fresh, clean water outdoors during supervised playtime if outdoor play is desired. Indoors, guest pets will have access to our kitchen, dining, and living space. All flooring is hard for easy mess cleanup, and for easy puppy potty training. Off limits sections of the house (ie: storage room, bedrooms when unoccupied) will remain closed or gated. Pets will sleep in our room with us when directly supervised. Our indoor environment is air conditioned and remainds approximately 70-74 degrees year round. Our home is in a wonderful edge of town peice of property that is easy to access from the main highway and far enough from neighbors to be very peaceful. There is a subdivision with nice sidewalks with light traffic residential streets for plenty of leashed walking less than half a mile down the road. There is also a large park nearby. Plenty of exercise can be provided for pets that need it, and I love being outdoors myself. I am currently a stay at home dog and kid mom so I have plenty scheduling flexibility to accommodate things such as medications and potty training I have a fenced yard for free running and play and all of my dogs are crate trained for their safety in case it is needed either with client dogs or for another reason

“Madeline was available last minute and made me feel safe leaving my kitties behind for a few days. She sent pictures of each of them to me and made me feel they were loved and well taken care of while I was gone. I highly recommend Madeline to anyone needing help, especially those who may need extra cuddles or medication needs!”
“We’ve never left our dogs with anyone but Dani and Justin made us feel so comfortable! They are great at communicating, providing updates, and even had the house spotless when we returned! I will definitely be rebooking!”


“Carrie was so thoughtful and caring with our dogs! She understood their personalities and was patient, kind, and loving with them. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter to leave our babies with. We'll definitely be looking for Carrie for our future sitting needs.”

“Kylee was great! She kept us updated each day with texts and pictures of the dogs. She followed our instructions for the dogs and kept them on a their schedule which was much appreciated.”


About: Hi there! I have lots of experience caring for pets ranging from my own pets to shadowing at veterinary clinics in the DFW area. I am happy to help with walks and check-ins, and I am comfortable working with any breed or species. I have cared for a wide variety of dogs, elderly and young, and can accommodate special needs. For walks I work with owners to establish the safest route according to their pups needs in! For check-ins I can do feedings, administer meds, and play with your pup to make sure they’re happy while you’re away. I currently work full time Monday through Thursday. I can fit in walks and check-ins before and after work on those days, but Friday-Sunday I generally have an open availability for any help you might need. Each animal is different and requires their own unique approach. I try to respect this when establishing a relationship with both owner and pet. For walks and check-ins, I will work with you to make sure I can properly care for your animal! If you are considering boarding please be aware I have 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own and we will need to heavily discuss if everyone can blend together safely!
“Jessica was absolutely amazing!! She sent us updates multiple times a day and has amazing communication. It helped us relax on vacay knowing she was taking such good care of our babies. Im recommending her to everyone I know that will be going out of town. Thank you so much Jessica ur the best!!!”


About: Hi! I’m a dependable, caring pet lover offering dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting for dogs and cats.

“Moved to a new state and first time Rover user. Had a meet and greet with Tyler and he instantly put us at ease. Sent a lot of pics and updates so we were able to be away, stress free. Took great care of our house as well! We have already booked him for another sitting! Thank you Tyler for loving our pups!”

“Honor was wonderful with Klooney while I was away for several hours. She updated me with photos and kept me informed of how things were going. I will definitely reach out to Honor next time I need help taking care of Klooney.”

FAQs for House Sitting - DISH
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 3,529 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across DISH. 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 DISH 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 DISH 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 DISH 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.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
