“Ashton was absolutely fantastic, watching our bichon frise, Alfredo! He went above and beyond, keeping us updated with pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Alfredo was happy and well cared for – we couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
“Hannah was absolutely wonderful! She watched our three boxers for 10 days while we were away on vacation, and we could not have asked for a better experience. She followed all of our instructions exactly and went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for, comfortable, and loved while we were gone. Taking care of three boxers is no small task, but Hannah handled everything with confidence, patience, and care. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such good hands. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pups, and we are so grateful for everything she did. We would highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Shelby is truly an absolute gem! We came home to a happy, well cared for dog, and she even went above and beyond to make Samson more comfortable while we were away. After having several pet sitters over Samson’s nine years, Shelby is by far the best we’ve had. She is attentive, thoughtful, reliable, and genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. It was also a super last minute request due to an emergency with the sitter we had arranged prior. We are so happy she was available. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in such loving hands. We are so grateful for her and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional pet sitter.”
“Karen was such a blessing to meet and work with. She helped us out tremendously in caring for our young kittens for two almost back to back pre-planned vacations. Leaving them alone so young and so new to our household was really stressful, yet Karen made it very stress free. Karen stayed in constant communication and sent picture updates to share how our kitties were doing. She took care of our house while we were away and was so considerate to even ask us if we needed any groceries before we returned. She left us the cutest framed pictures of our babies on the countertop when we returned, which was an adorable surprise. We are so grateful to her and would highly recommend her for anyone looking for someone to care for their pets and/or home while they are away. We will be reaching out to her again!”
“Kaitlyn was amazing! I’m so thankful we found her. Oliver found his new best friend that gave him lots of love & hugs, played with him, and took such good care of him. She kept me constantly updated that made me felt at ease while I was away from my baby.”
“There are not enough words to express how grateful we are for Rebekah. Before leaving for vacation, our dog Annie had a medical procedure on her ear. While we were out of the country, Annie’s condition worsened and she needed surgery. Rebekah handled the situation with professionalism, compassion, and genuine love for Annie. She worked closely with our veterinarian throughout the entire process, sending photos of Annie’s ear that helped us and the vet make important treatment decisions from thousands of miles away. She took Annie to her surgery, brought her safely home, and managed all of her post-operative care. Rebekah adapted Annie’s feeding area so she could comfortably eat while wearing her large protective cone. She kept us updated with frequent photos and videos, giving us tremendous peace of mind while we were overseas. She even created several instructional videos before we returned home so we would know exactly what had been working for Annie’s recovery, including how to manage the cone and care for her ear. Rebekah also took wonderful care of our home. She washed the linens, took out the trash, and even cleaned Annie’s potty area in the yard before we returned. We came home to a recovering dog who had been loved and cared for as if she were Rebekah’s own, and to a home that was spotless and welcoming. What could have been a nightmare while we were out of the country became manageable because of Rebekah’s dedication, communication, and kindness. We wholeheartedly recommend Rebekah to anyone looking for a pet and house sitter. She went far above and beyond anything we could have expected, and we will always be grateful for the extraordinary care she provided to Annie and our home.”
“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++++”
“Alexis did a good job staying with our two golden doodles. They seems happy when we got back and it was refreshing to know they were taken care of while our family was away.”
“Natalie did a great job taking care of our Nora in our home! Our normal dog sitter/ house sitter was busy so we had to try someone new and we made a great choice. I’m always hesitant letting new people into our home but Natalie left our home in the same condition before we left. She went above and beyond taking the garbage out, taking sheets off the bed and starting the dishwasher. She was very communicative of Nora’s needs and how she was doing while we were gone. Natalie communicated her schedule changes as it related to when Nora would be home alone. We would recommend Natalie to other rover users and will use her again!”
About: I provide reliable, personalized pet care that keeps your furry family member happy and healthy while you’re away. My focus is on safety, routine, and open communication so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. i am currently unemployed hoping to make this my full time job i also uber and going to school aswell for cosmo i have a lot of free time. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s routine closely—feeding, walking, and playtime happen at the same times as usual to minimize stress. I take time to observe their habits, likes, and any quirks, so I can respond to their needs just as their owner would. I also ensure the space is pet-proofed, checking for anything that could be a hazard, like loose wires or toxic plants. If a pet seems anxious, I use gentle techniques like soft talking or slow movements to help them relax.
“I felt very comfortable with Gregory staying with Benji, he communicated with me daily and gave me updates on Benji. I loved that Benji felt safe with him that made very happy. Very grateful and thankful!”
“Kari took great care of my two pups while staying at my house, giving me peace of mind while away. She sent daily photo updates and made sure they got plenty of playtime out in the yard. Kari was reliable, respectful, and attentive. My dogs absolutely loved her, and she handled everything seamlessly. I will definitely be hiring her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!”
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was a teenager! I love to give them attention and exercise when I'm pet sitting & dog walking. I often work from home, so I'm offering dog walking, pet sitting, and frequent pet check ins near the Uptown Dallas area. I work online, so I have flexibility for early morning and evening walks, and pet sitting to ensure consistent attention and love! I match my walks to what the dog needs, whether that be fast or slow paced, long, or short. I love to give the amount of attention that the animal is seeking, whether that be constant affection or giving them space. I can stop by for regular feedings/attention/walks or stay on property if preferable.
“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.”
“Paul was just fantastic. Sent updates and took wonderful care of our Dallas. No problems at all. Would highly recommend him to take care of ur fur baby. I will definitely use him again. Our Dallas enjoyed him a lot.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Double Oak is $50

FAQs for House Sitting - Double Oak
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Double Oak 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 4,962 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Double Oak. 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 Double Oak 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 Double Oak 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 Double Oak 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.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 97% can help with daily exercise
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.
