I can make sure they stay on schedule with eating and potty. I will first ensure that whatever the pet parents need I will do, providing peace of mind and safety, so they can enjoy wherever they need to be elsewhere. In a home, I will treat you property with respect, double checking all doors and gates are locked and adhereing to your care instructions. If walking i will keeps pets on a leash if needed. Giving the care they desire, becuase this can change depending on the pets personality. In my home, I will maintain a clean, safe, and hazards free enviroment where any furry frind can feel right at home.
“For the first time ever we left our 12 year old dog at home while going on vacation and needed someone to stay with him. Melissa knocked it outta the park with our tripawd dog Sammy and treated him like family. In addition to giving him three medications every morning and evening, she cuddled him, played with him, carried him up and down stairs and made him feel loved. Melissa sent photos of Sammy having the time of his life which made it easy to enjoy ourselves on vacation knowing he was well cared for.”
“Bridget is a kind, energetic, conscientious caretaker! Lucy has never been so relaxed when we arrived home. We booked immediately after her interview which was about a month out. Bridget requested coming back over to walk Lucy a week before our trip so Lucy would be more comfortable when we left. Bridget wanted to arrive at our home early so that she’d have some time with Lucy while we were still here. She also stayed until we arrived home to give us a report of how the stay went. While we were gone, Bridget sent us several photos of Lucy. Bridget is a true professional and a huge animal lover. Lucy is a senior dog that requires medication. Bridget didn’t hesitate. We would highly recommend her services. In fact, we are already rebooking!”
About: I have worked at a pet resort for multiple years, in which I monitor group play with a variety of temperaments, administer medication and care for dogs and cats on a daily basis. I’ve also had multiple dogs and cats throughout childhood, teenage, and in my adult years. I have experience with pets of all personalities and strive to learn more about each animal to be able to accommodate them to ensure they are most comfortable. I work 4 days a week, so I am able to pet sit/walk throughout the day mostly on weekends and Mondays, however my weekday off day could flex to Friday availability as well. I have 2 friendly dogs, one medium and one small with a fully fenced in backyard to keep your pet company! But they could easily be in our room for those that are picky with their friends. I also have 2 indoors cats but they could be sequestered for pets that may not enjoy feline company. I also have experience with crate training and potty training if applicable to your pup! I have the utmost respect for my client’s homes and their pet’s already established routines- no matter how extensive!
“Alexis was awesome. Was consistent and gave great updates. We will definitely use her in the future. She made a point to make sure my animals were comfortable with her before the trip.”
About: I have experience with taking care of all range of pet needs, from strict schedules to more flexible basic care needs. I regularly take care of my friends and family pets. We walk. We read. We nap and snack. If there's a schedule to be kept, I'm on top of it. If your cat, dog, iguana, bird, or other pet is more flexible and just wants to chill, I'm happy to do that as well. You let me know what your beloved pet needs and I'll help make it happen. I usually take/send at least daily care pics with the pets activities of the day as well. I have a flexible schedule! I can do any time. Whether it's early mornings. Late nights. Sleep overs. Weekends.Holidays. Afternoons! Whatever your fur kid needs. Safety and trust always first. I will treat your fur kid's like my own. I will give them walkies. Pets and cuddles. Reading time. Snack time. I will love on them.
“Our dogs can be a little picky about who they like, but they liked Anna right away when they met her. She was pleasant and flexible about stopping by prior to our booking. We will definitely ask her to watch Fred and Simsi again.”
“Chanel did great taking care of my fur baby and house. She sent lots of pics and videos. My fur baby had an accident in the house which never happened before and Chanel was a champ having to clean it up. I will hire her again in the future if she is available. Thank you Chanel!”
About: I've been taking care of cats since I was young and I've had several cats since age 6. As for dogs I never owned my own dog but there were always dogs in the family that I helped take care of along with dogs of my friends. Right now I am trying to find a job and I'm looking for fully remotes so my schedule is pretty open and I can do it pretty much all day. For in home or in your home I make sure that they're fed and they get plenty of water throughout the day so that generally means checking at least three or four times to make sure they have what they need. Then giving them plenty of stimulation so they're not bored and that's done through toys and chasing and just taking them out for fun adventures
About: While most of my personal pet-care experience is with cats, I’m also comfortable caring for friendly dogs and getting to know their individual personalities and routines. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive, and I will carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, and any other needs. I’ll also provide plenty of photos and updates so you can feel confident that your dog is safe and cared for. I work full-time during the week, but I’m available for drop-in visits in the early mornings, evenings, and on weekends. I’m happy to coordinate visits around your animal’s usual feeding schedule and routine whenever possible. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability before confirming a booking. I care for pets in their own home, where they can feel most comfortable and secure. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, litter-box, and household instructions while respecting each animal’s boundaries and personality. I’m attentive to changes in behavior or appetite, cautious with doors and windows, and will provide dependable updates and photos after every visit.
About: I have been around animals for most of my life and have experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, bathe, and keep their pets company while they’re away. I understand that every pet has their own routine and comfort level, so I take the time to get to know what makes them feel safe and happy. I’m an active person who genuinely enjoys long walks, outdoor time, and interactive play, but I’m just as happy keeping a senior dog company or giving an anxious pet the patience and space they need. My goal is always to make your pet feel comfortable while giving you peace of mind. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide pets with plenty of attention instead of just stopping in for the basics. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, potty breaks, or simply someone to keep them company, I’m happy to accommodate their routine as much as possible. I know consistency is important for animals, and I’ll do my best to keep their day feeling as normal as it does when you’re home. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I’ll carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding schedules, exercise, crate training, or household rules. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior so I can recognize when they need play, rest, water, or a little extra reassurance. I believe communication is just as important as great pet care, so I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout my visits. You can relax knowing your pet is being cared for with patience, kindness, and the same level of attention I’d give my own.
“Thank you Casey for your awesomeness. Yogi loved your companionship. We both truly appreciate your kindness, happiness, helpfulness and awesomeness. Yogi loves his new friend Casey. We both look forward to seeing you again. Thank you for your excellent attention and friendship. 😊⭐️🤗⭐️🐕”
“Liz was fabulous! She spent three nights at my house with my two large dogs and cat. She sent pictures and updates while I was gone, and everyone seemed happy when I got home. She even washed her linens and tidied up my house a bit before leaving. I will definitely be hiring her again!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Haltom City is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Haltom City
If you’re looking at reviews of this sitter, you can go ahead and JUST BOOK HER RN. Within the few seconds of meeting her, her vibes were just amazing! We had her visit our animals the day before our trip, and we just felt an immediate connection with her! She’s very talkative, friendly, sweet, and brings such happy energy! She kept in communication about our animals and constantly sent photos and video of how they were doing. Our dog ended up having allergies before we left to where we had to get medication and on her down time she messaged us saying she researched ways that could help his allergies and did the things that would be helpful! She went above and beyond. She brings 100% of the effort into pet sitting! Even with our friends watching our animals, we always felt the urge of being uncomfortable from far away. And even getting a pet sitter we didn’t know scared us at first, but when we met her and talked to her it felt like we were friends for awhile and we finally didn’t feel worried being away on our trip. You could even tell from the photos and videos that our animals adored her. We would book her a thousand times all over! Thanks ALLI!! ❤️❤️❤️
This was like a very very last minute booking and Almendra was able to help me, she is great, very communicative she follow everything I needed for Picasso. Definitely I would recommend her anytime and count with her whenever we need that extra help! Thank you so much Almendra! 🫶🏾🐾🫶🏾
Melissa did a great job of taking care of our dogs! She went above and beyond to take care of them- taking them on walks, spending lots of time with them, etc. She was also great at communication and letting us know via message and pictures how our dogs were doing. Thank you Melissa!
Shelbi was absolutely amazing while we were away for 10 days. She took incredible care of our dogs and our home, kept us updated, and gave us real peace of mind the entire trip. You can tell she genuinely cares about animals and treats them like her own. Coming home to happy dogs and everything in perfect shape made the end of vacation so much easier. We would 100% book with Shelbi again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring Rover sitter.
Literally the BEST! It was my first time ever getting a sitter for my tortoise, she did amazing with him. She asked questions and went above and beyond for my little guy! She even sent pictures so I could see he was doing well; definitely a 10/10 person and 20/10 service!

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 Haltom City 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 Haltom City 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 Haltom City 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!

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.

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
