About: I’ve helped care for my family dog, Shadow, since he was a puppy, giving me hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding, playtime, and maintaining a consistent routine. Spending so much time caring for him has taught me how important patience, reliability, and positive attention are for every dog. I truly love dogs and enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing fetch, or just wants some extra cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ll treat your dog like they’re part of my own family and always provide the love, attention, and care they deserve. As a graduate student, my schedule gives me the flexibility to fit pet care into my day. Since moving into an apartment, I don’t get to spend as much time with dogs as I used to, so I’m excited for the opportunity to care for pets and make them part of my weekly routine. I’m happy to work around your pet’s schedule, whether that means morning walks, afternoon visits, or evening check-ins. At this time, I’m unable to host pets in my apartment, so I focus on caring for dogs in their own homes and through walks. I’m happy to follow your house rules and your dog’s regular routine, whether that means specific walking routes, feeding schedules, potty breaks, or any other care instructions. For walks, I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise, attention, and safe, enjoyable time outside. During drop-in visits, I’ll provide fresh water, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of affection so your dog stays happy and comfortable while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind by providing dependable care that’s tailored to your dog’s needs.

About: Hi! I’m Bri, and I believe every pet deserves more than just a sitter—they deserve someone who will love, respect, and care for them like family. 🐾 I know how difficult it can be to leave your pet with someone else, and my goal is to make both you and your furry family member feel completely comfortable from the very first meeting. Whether your pet is joining me for boarding, daycare, a walk, or a drop-in visit, they’ll receive the same love, patience, and individualized care I give my own dog. I proudly provide personalized pet care throughout the Back Mountain and Dallas area. Every dog is unique, and I take the time to learn their personality, routine, favorite activities, and comfort level so they feel safe, happy, and right at home while you’re away. I especially enjoy caring for puppies and senior dogs, but I welcome dogs of all breeds, ages, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing fetch, sniffing every tree in the neighborhood, or curling up for quiet cuddles, I’ll tailor their care to what makes them happiest. I’m Pet CPR certified and participate in ongoing Professional Pet Sitting education to stay current on pet safety, behavior, and best practices. Your pet’s well-being is always my highest priority, and you’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing they’re in loving, capable hands. When staying with me, your dog will enjoy a large fenced yard, daily exercise, enrichment activities, and plenty of one-on-one attention. My sweet mini Labradoodle, Ellie, loves making new friends, and I also have separate rooms and crates available for pets who prefer a quieter environment or need their own space. One of my favorite parts of pet sitting is seeing dogs remember me and run to the door excited for their next visit. Building lasting relationships with pets and the families who love them is the most rewarding part of what I do. To provide the highest level of care, I intentionally limit the number of pets I accept at one time. This allows me to give every guest the individualized attention, affection, exercise, and companionship they deserve instead of simply supervising multiple dogs. Whether you’re planning a vacation, need dependable daycare, regular walks, or drop-in visits while you’re away, I’d be honored to care for your best friend. Because to me, pets aren’t just clients—they become part of the family. 🐾❤️ I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, companionship, and plenty of supervision throughout the day. I welcome planned vacations, repeat local families, and long-term relationships with my clients. When availability allows, I’m also happy to accommodate occasional short-notice requests. I care with absolute passion.I have separate rooms for your pup/ cat and a large crate when needed. I have a fenced in yard for lots of room to roam and play. As well as a furry friend to play with Ellie my mini labordoodle.

About: I have lived with dogs my entire life and I had helped with the puppy stage for two dogs in the last 5 years. My family got a German Shepherd puppy 5 years ago and then we decided he needed a friend so I helped with a new puppy who’s a Beagle just this past fall. I also have had recent jobs where responsibility was a necessity as I was a para educator with special needs kids over the summer. I’m currently a college student so my weekdays are pretty busy with classes and trying to keep up with school work but I could be free on the weekends depending. At home I help with feeding my dogs, one of my dogs has epilepsy so I’m familiar with giving medications, I also help to walk them and love to play with them to help them get their energy out. I have also helped friends and siblings with watching their pets when needed.

Kayla did such an amazing job house-sitting and taking care of my two dogs during two different trips for the holidays. Both of my doggos, including my 16+ year old senior mix who has some special needs, were happy and healthy and calm when I got home and the house was exactly as I left it. She was easy to communicate with and clearly did a great job taking care of our pups and keeping them at ease while we were gone! We'll definitely be booking with her again and recommending to friends!

Noelle is great and goes above and beyond. She stayed with my two dogs for multiple nights which is not easy. My dogs are lovable but they are rescues who were abused so they have behavioral issues. Noelle wasn’t worried and came to spend time with them ahead of our travel to ensure she understood their challenges and learned how to handle them. One of my dogs is people selective but loved Noelle from the start. I felt very comfortable leaving my dogs with her. She even worked on some training techniques with them during her stay. She is a true animal lover and it’s evident in her care towards all animals, treating them as her own. I highly recommend her!

About: I’ve own dogs since I was little. German Shepherd, poodle, Mastiff mix. Board and dog sitting for friends and family throughout the years. Love dog company, caring for them, providing the best attention, playtime, basic training and good nutrition to ensure their happiness and a healthy life. Animals are like family. Their wellbeing is very important to me. They are just amazing and precious. My last best friend, my boy Dice, (now in heaven), a 110lbs American Bulldog, was potty trained at 3 months old. As he grew, I taught him not to pull when on a leash, to sit and lay down, to be calm when we had visitors, to seek, fetch, obedience and other basic commands that are important to teach at an early age. When I was away from home, I made sure he had the best sitters or boarding care possible. I understand you would like the same for your dog. After 14 happy years, sadly, age came with arthritis, difficulty standing up or walking. But I was there 24/7 to provide the best care and love. I administered oral medication every 6 hours for 1 year, allowing him to still do very short potty trips and walks outdoors. The last 4 months of life, all was done indoors. I helped to get to an area I prepared to go potty. Sometimes it happened on the way. He had to be cleaned up several times a day and fed by hand. Sleepless nights always by his side. We made several trips to the emergency hospital until the doctor said it was time to let go. Very painful. His ashes are with me now. He will be forever in my heart. I will do it all over again. Dogs are like children. They deserve all the best. Until I find my next best friend, let me give yours all my love and attention. I work from home with my own schedule. I have plenty of time to provide all the attention he/she needs to be comfortable, loved and happy. Keeping your dog mentally and physically entertained is important for a perfect day. I don’t have a fenced yard but plenty of outdoor space, surrounded by trees for short walks on a leash, games and a backyard deck & porch for free time and fresh air. Your puppy will feel at home and cozy.

About: “From tail wags to soft purrs—and even tiny paws and eight legs—I love helping pets feel happy and cared for. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and a variety of other pets, including ferrets, hamsters, rabbits, and even tarantulas. I’ve walked, bathed, and trained animals (including a dog that became a service animal), so I know patience, attention, and trust are key. Every pet in my care gets love, safety, and companionship, just like they’re part of my family.” My schedule is currently very flexible, so I’m able to provide walks, playtime, or overnight care whenever your pet needs it. I’m happy to work around your schedule to make sure your pets get the attention and care they deserve. “I deeply care for every pet in my care, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I keep their space clean, comfortable, and secure, and I pay close attention to their needs so they always feel nurtured and well-cared-for.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was eight. Not only my own personal pets, but also those of friends and family members. I do not currently have any pets, but I love animals, so this is my way to interact and spend time with them! I currently attend school, but my classes are spread out and only on certain days so I have plenty of time to take your dog on a nice, long walk. I'm really good as being able to tell if an animal is comfortable in a situation or not, so after our first walk, I can find the most enjoyable route for your dog!

FAQs for House Sitting - Harveys Lake

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 176 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Harveys Lake. 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 Harveys Lake 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 Harveys Lake 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 Harveys Lake 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Harveys Lake. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
