“Emily went above and beyond when it came to taking care of our fur baby. She gave updates throughout her visit and we came home to the house looking just as we left it, very clean! Would definitely recommend her. She’s amazing!”
“Dusty took great care of our fur babies and our home. She sent pictures and updates throughout the time that we were gone. Everything was as we left it when we returned. I will definitely rebook with her! She is great!”
“It was my first time using Rover and Rachel made sure it was a good experience. She clarified any needs for the dogs, asked what was acceptable to not cross any boundaries already set, and made sure they had an enjoyable day. Couldn’t be happier to have them watched by her. Would recommend her if you need a sitter.”
“Haley is the best sitter we have had! She takes the time to meet and understand your dogs’ needs first. I really appreciate all the updates she provides-videos, photos and messages so you know what is going on with your babies. She is extremely kind to my dogs and communicates very well. Highly recommend!”
About: I grew up with dogs I had 5 growing up a boxer 2 labs a chihuahua and a pekingese. I love dogs of all shapes and sizes and am comfortable with providing care and scratches for any breed. I'm working part time at the moment so I have plenty of time open in my schedule to watch house or walk your dog as needed. In your home I can go by your instructions same as my residence. Lots of play time walks and tummy rubs I really like to engage with them.
“Genesis took care of my four dogs, in my home, for a week and did a tremendous job! She’s super sweet and very conscientious. I’ll be using her again! Thank you so much, Genesis!! ❤️”
About: I have worked at Petsmart before. At Petsmart we are required to know what makes a dog comfortable while at a public place or somewhere other than home. I have watched over puppies 2 and 3 months old for my in laws a couple times now. My parents got a kitten that I helped take care of till I moved out about 10 months later. I own a chinchilla which is an exotic small animal. I’ve had her for a year. I’ve been fascinated by pets since I was a child and always do my research before taking care of an animal. I look forward to being of assistance. I fluctuate between part time and full time. I’m usually free tuesdays, wednesdays, and thursdays. I can schedule the time off if it’s 3 or 4 weeks in advance. I usually work mornings except for mondays, when I work evenings. I can always visit the pup or kitty during break and then spend the rest of the day with them after work. This will most likely be temporary until I can get a solid schedule here or at Home Depot. My apartment complex is very pet friendly. My building is only a few steps away from a dog park inside of the complex. The clubhouse has dog treats and I can provide as well based on age and diet. I will always ask any questions about what you would prefer for your fur baby. I have a chinchilla that stays in a cage as long as your pet is around. She is curious and will not hurt your pet even if they stick a paw in between the bars, which is hard to do anyways. My living room is a large space for any pet. I’m currently working part time, but I’m willing to do weekly stays with 2-3 weeks in advance notice. I also will require meet ups before every service in a public place. This is not going to be required for existing clients. I live in an apartment so I don’t currently own any pets, but everyone in my direct and extended family either has, or has had one that I’ve grown up with. I’m very familiar with animal routines and attributes. If something is bothering your pet, I will notice. I always keep in constant contact with whoever I petsit or help take care of for anything I may notice. Most of the time it’s things owners are already aware of, but I’ve always found it never hurts to ask and inform.
About: I have extensive experience with pets from doggy daycares to grooming shops to vet clinics. I have been pet sitting and grooming for the last 10 years. My home is basically for my furr babies. They're allowed on the furniture even though they have 5 of their own beds and 4 little hidey houses. They literally have over 100 toys, all kinds, that they are willing to share with any pup they welcome in here. The house is theirs, I just live here and clean up after them. I work from home and I have classes that are mostly online so, I am home basically all day. I'll be able to watch the dogs all day and I let them go outside about every hour or so to go potty. I have a fenced in yard with a few chickens in the yard. I have an above ground pool with a floating doggy dock to make it easy for them to get out of the pool if they ever jump in but its usually closed off unless it is being actively used. I have 2 friendly shih tzu sisters that are spoiled rotten and 2 little kittens that love playing with the dogs. Dogs can go on all furniture and there are plenty of toys to play with. There are a bunch of dog beds and comfy spots for them to chill inside.
“Just got home from our weekend away to a very happy dog and nice clean home. Sheridan did a great job giving updates throughout our trip making it very easy for us to relax knowing our dear pet was well cared for. I would highly recommend her for any pet sitting needs.”
“Alice was amazing! Her communication throughout the day was stellar, she was always swift to respond my texts and sent photos and videos at consistent morning, afternoon evening milestones. All those efforts really allowed me to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing my little one was in good hands. I will definitely be a regular.”
“Marisol watched my sweet girl who I was recovering from my very serious deep eye ulcer. This required her to put in antibiotic eye drops in both of my dog’s eyes three times a day. I was nervous about hiring a sitter because I wasn’t sure how they would be able to handle this, however, Marisol made sure to ask a lot of questions and was able to give my dog all of her drops! I’ve always had family members take care of my dog whenever I go on vacation, but I moved out of state and so I had to rely on a sitter. Marisol was very responsive, she was on top of all of my dogs antibiotic eye drops, and helped put my mind at ease while I took a long weekend trip away.”
About: I have taken care of different types of dogs through out the past years. Small and large. Energetic and calm. Old and young. I’ve watch over Schnauzers, Australia Shepherds, French Bulldogs, Shiba Inu, Doberman and many mixes.. Needless to say I’m willing to watch any dog! I can also say there has never been any accidents that have occurred to a dog under my watch. I do not like having animals caged up for long so they will be free to roam when under my supervision. Furthermore, I love the outdoors so the doggos will have a nice pleasant walk with me visiting all the nearby parks when able. I also love cats so all of this applies to them as well. =) *Hablo Español* *Price is negotiable for stays longer than 14 days* I am a full time IT employee. Although during the week I will be out for 8-9 hours I do live close enough that I can drive to my apartment and give the dogs a potty break during my lunch break. I also have cameras at home so I will still be keeping an eye on them while I'm out! I am quite active so the dogs will always get plenty of exercise. If they can keep up that is. If you know your dog cannot be left alone without causing chaos I would appreciate if you bring their crate. **Please give me at least 1 week in advance for appointments. Although my schedule is often up to date. I too take vacations and have to go out of town on emergencies. Last minute request will be considered but likeliness is low. I am a true animal lover so I will put the pets wellbeing first. I do not plan on leaving animals in a crate for longer than a couple hours if necessary. I am an active person so long walks will be something the dogs will get. Unless they cannot keep up. I really like playing rope and catch with dogs so they will get plenty of play time. =)

About: I’ve helped pet sit many pups and cats throughout the 12 years on my free time! :) Never had an issue! And communication is key! I get off work at 12:30pm! And I’m free after most of the days! I run in my free time so I really don’t mind anything at all! I have a high fence, big back yard to go potty and play! But my puppy stays inside and he has his own space in every room.
About: I’ve helped train your German shepherd’s and they are the sweetest babies ever. Very well behaved and I also have a lot of patience for dogs especially puppies. I have a senior dog and also know the extra care that comes with having one. I’m a full time nail technician and stylist, meaning I have such a flexible schedule and if you need me to take care of your baby during the day I can always run and do so during my breaks. My work schedule at the salon is Tuesday-Saturday I can easily take your fur babies on walks, put them in their crate if needed feed them and also give them cuddles and rubs whenever they need them
About: Since I was 13 we have had dogs and animals in our home. I’ve trained them, walked them, fed them, and snuggled with them. I’ve also volunteered at the humane society walking dogs that spent their time there. I am currently doing school in the summer but if you contact me with times I can see if it works with my schedule! :) I currently rent a home and take care of my two pups there. I usually do stop in visits at my clients home and just take care of the animal in the way it is requested!
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. Each of them have something different that makes them lovable and special. Watching or walking dogs never seems to be a job for me because time goes by fast when you are having fun! I, myself had a German Shepherd, he passed away this last December. I work from home, just need wifi to hang out with your babies. I take meetings occasionally throughout the day, woofs and pets are always welcome. I have a two mainecoon cats. Both are very social and friendly. They both have been around a fair share of dogs and even a parrot.
About: I’ve had a dog since I could remember and taken care of my friend’s and family’s loving pets throughout my 40 years of life. I’ll be happy to walk, feed, and care for your pets. I do work remotely from home so I’ll be readily available to care for your pets. I work remotely from home, I may run an errand before or after work or do my hot yoga, but for the most part I work 9-5pm from home. I have a nice corner lot home with a large fenced in backyard with plenty of room to run around. I pick up the dog poop after my own puppy. My house is clean and pets are allowed to roam without having to be crated.
About: I have 20+ years working with and loving animals. Love to be outside walking and love taking a dog for a nice stroll to enjoy the great outdoors. I live in the country on 3 acres, plenty of space to run and my entire property is fenced to keep pets safe. I love dogs and cats and have some of my own that are my family. I know how hard it is to trust others with your pets so I wanted to offer my services as your pets would be well cared for and treated just like my own. I’ve volunteered at an ASPCA and have fostered pets as well as been in the medical field so I know how important proper care and trust are. I can come to your home, within a reasonable distance to care for your pets. They will always be safe and well cared for. I am available anytime per my calendar on Rover, please check it for updates. It is subject to change and I will do my best to update it I have a fenced in yard that is inspected monthly and if caring for your pet in your home or simply just walking your pet, I can do a meet and greet with your pet(s) to be sure I would be a good fit.

FAQs for House Sitting - East Tawakoni
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 351 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across East Tawakoni. 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 East Tawakoni 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 East Tawakoni 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 East Tawakoni 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.
