“Carla was absolutely wonderful with our pup while we were away! She gave her so much love and attention and kept up with her medication regimen. She was very communicative and left our home just the way we left it.”
“Michael is AMZAZING!! He treated our pups as his own and sent me continuous updates without me having to ask. I did not worry one bit with my babies being in his care. Will use him every time we need to!”
“Regina was on time, did everything we asked and kept us informed about her leaving Jet alone when she was going to be gone for a couple of hours. We came home to a happy dog and a clean house. Will hire her again.”
“Aleona was absolutely amazing! She cared for our two dachshunds and elderly cat during a snow/ice storm, and we couldn’t have felt more at ease. Her communication was impeccable, and she truly went above and beyond to make sure our babies were warm, happy, and so well loved. We’re incredibly grateful and would recommend her in a heartbeat!”
“I want to thank Ruth again for doing such a good job with my dog and Kitty. When I got home they were very relaxed and happy. The pictures I received showed how they were doing while I was away. I will definitely asked Ruth again when I go away.”
“Kendra was amazing watching my boys Oliver and Sebastian. Oliver is special needs and has epilepsy so he needs meds 3x a day. Kendra had no issue administering his meds and making sure my baby was okay and taken care of. she even let me know each time she gave his meds so my mind was at ease. She made me very comfortable as I haven’t left my boys with anyone before. I am so glad I found her and will continue to use her services because I know Ollie and Bash will be well taken care of.”
“Marisol did a fantastic job taking care of my golden doodle, who can be a little particular when it comes to people. She was patient, kind, and made him feel comfortable right away. She sent daily updates with pictures. I came home to a happy pup and a tidy house — couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend her!”
About: Animals have always been a meaningful part of my life, not just a job or responsibility. What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my genuine connection with animals and my ability to understand their individual needs and personalities. I take the time to build trust, especially with pets who may be shy or anxious, and I care for every animal as if they were my own. I am attentive, patient, and reliable, and I understand how important it is for owners to feel confident and at ease while they’re away. My goal is to provide consistent, compassionate care that keeps pets happy and owners reassured. I am a senior in college with a lot of free time, I love to be around and care for animals so this is a good fit for me. When caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water at all times, receive plenty of attention and playtime, and get the rest they need. I pay close attention to their behavior and well-being, and I’m comfortable following specific instructions, including medication or special care needs. I also keep the home clean and secure, and I communicate regularly with owners to provide updates and peace of mind.
“Ava helped us out for a very last minute weekend trip. Our home and our fur babies were very well taken care of. She was quick at responding to our messages and sent plenty of pictures and videos. We will definitely be recommending her to our friends and will be rebooking with her! Thanks again, Ava!”
“NeTia was a fantastic pet/house sitter! She came to my home before her job began to allow the dogs to familiarize themselves with her. Both of my dogs, even my very scared/shy dog, immediately took to NeTia. I believe they noticed her calm presence and felt at ease. I got pictures and consistent feedback from NeTia! I never worried about how the animals were doing! She did a great job with the pets, communication, and keeping the house clean. She even washed, dried, and folded the towels she used! :)”
About: I have over three years of hands-on pet care experience, caring for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities. My experience includes feeding, walking, cleaning up after pets, and ensuring that pets feel safe and comfortable while owners are away. I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time every day for walks, feeding schedules, and playtime. I’m available in the morning, afternoon, and evening! I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, preferences, and any special care instructions from their owner. I prioritize communication, safety, and trust. I also provide updates and check ins.
“Molly was absolutely amazing. She communicated clearly and provided daily updates, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. She was also fully prepared to administer medications to our two senior dogs without any issues. All of our babies clearly loved her, and we came home to a clean house and happy, healthy pets. We’re so grateful for the wonderful care she provided! 🐾”
“Omg… KELILA IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. So kind, so helpful and most importantly my baby loved her so mix. She was the best sitter I have ever had, and I will definitely be using her again. Thank you Kelila.”
“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.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. Neighbors, family friends and family have relied on me to take care of their furry family members. As someone who has dogs of their own, I know how much your animals mean to you. I have had experience with puppies, all the way to older dogs. Although I work full-time, I still have plenty of time to care for your furry family members! I’m available for weekend drop-in visits and can stay in your home any day of the week to keep your pets comfortable and maintain their normal routine. I strive to make pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, provide plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, and ensure they always have a safe environment. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs and keep owners updated throughout my visits or stays.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs basically my whole life. I worked in a vet clinic in Forney and worked in the doggy daycare at North Forney. I’ve cared for hyper puppies and old little ladies/gents. I’ve seen aggressive, scared, or super needy animals. I have the patience to care for any personality, and I have been trained to restrain aggressive animals as well. I honestly love animals and i’m looking to have fun with any type of pet that’s out there! I’ll be home and free for most of the summer as I am not doing online college until the fall. I will be a substitute teacher at Lewis Elementary in Forney coming the fall as well. I’m looking to have fun with all kinds of animals, friendly or not! I am very passionate and willing to work with any animal. I adjust myself depending on the animals personality. I know pets are like people, all unique in their own way. I know how to give medication, prevent dog fights, restrain both cats and dogs. As well as give simple shots. I’ve worked in a vet clinic for a few months about a year or two ago. I can say i’ve seen many kinds of animals, aggressive or not, and i’m willing to take care of any animal and their needs. I have my own car so if an emergency happened, I am able to take care of it straight away. I have always had a love and passion for animals, and I hope your furbabies trust me too!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Heath
We recently had Aleona stay in our home to care for our three pets for two weeks. She did a great job keeping us updated with messages and pictures throughout our trip, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our pets seemed comfortable and well cared for when we returned, and it was clear they received plenty of attention. We appreciated her reliability and communication and would be happy to consider her again for future pet-sitting needs.
Amazing service!!! My flight was delayed and I wasn’t able to be home as scheduled. Lana went above and beyond to continue to care for my fur babies until I made it back home. I can’t say enough about Lana’s character, service and love for all of us! I want to thank her wonderful daughter for assisting. Both of you ROCK!!!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Heath
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Heath on Rover is $43.29 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,661 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Heath. 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 Heath 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 Heath 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 Heath 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.
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.
