About: Welcome! If you are looking for a calm, stress-free, 1-on-1 environment for your pet, you have come to the right place. As a veterinarian’s daughter and a full-time professional pet sitter with over 100 5-star reviews, providing attentive, top-tier care tailored to your pet's personality and energy level is my passion. I host only one client family’s pets at a time, ensuring your fur baby receives undivided attention, customized care, and total safety. 🐾Why Choose My Care? 1-on-1 Exclusive Attention: Your pet will never compete with outside animals for love, space, or care. 🐾Veterinary Background: My dad was a veterinarian and I am fully confident administering oral medications, managing special diets, and providing calm care for senior or special-needs pets. 🐾Full-Day Presence: Pet care is my full-time focus. Your pet enjoys constant companionship, frequent potty breaks, and structured daily routines. 🐾Tailored Exercise & Backyard Fun: Guests enjoy endless play in my huge, fully fenced backyard. For dogs who love exploring, I am happy to offer trips to nearby parks for leashed walks. (Note: For safety, park walks are reserved for dogs who are fully leash-trained and do not pull heavily. Strong pullers will still get plenty of great exercise in the secure yard!) 🐾Prepared & Accommodating: I provide a clean kennel and dog bed on-site for convenience so you have less to pack, though you are always welcome to bring your own. 🐾Clear Communication: Expect regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and truly spoiled. 🐾Safety & Household Notes Children: Children are listed on my profile because my grandchildren visit occasionally, though they do not live here. If your dog prefers an adult-only environment, I will coordinate schedules so no children are present during their stay. 🐾Meet & Greets: I strongly encourage a quick Meet & Greet prior to booking so everyone feels completely confident and comfortable. ❤️In Hawaiian, a pet caretaker is called a Kahu—a guardian, protector, and steward of something cherished. I take that role to heart and treat every guest like my own. Whether hosting in my home or house-sitting in yours, I look forward to giving your pet a safe, loving home away from home! Full-Time Care & Companionship 🐾 Now that I am retired, pet care is my full-time focus! Your fur baby will enjoy plenty of relaxed companionship, frequent potty breaks, and a consistent daily routine. Your pet will receive endless love, attention, and playtime. They'll have access to a huge, fully fenced backyard, plus trips to nearby parks for walks. I also send regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and truly spoiled! Experienced & Trusted!! 🐾 Veterinarian’s Daughter: Expert animal care practices built into my daily routine. 🐾 40+ Years of Experience: Decades of dedicated, hands-on care for pets of all ages and temperaments. 🐾 Fort Worth’s Trusted Nanny: Over 100 5-star reviews and a track record of happy, repeat clients. 🐾 Exclusive Single-Family Stays: I accept only one client family at a time for maximum safety and full attentiveness. 🐾 Senior & Special Needs Care: Highly experienced with aging dogs, complex medical conditions, and mobility needs. 🐾 Medication & Safety: Fully trained in administering oral and injected medications, plus Pet First Aid & CPR certified. A 5-Star VIP Experience!!! 🐾 Tail-Wagging Activities: Daily walks in the park (if requested), active backyard games, basic command reinforcement, and brain-boosting activities like treat puzzles and sniff mats. 🐾 Impromptu Photo Shoots: As a prior professional photographer, I love capturing gorgeous, candid pictures of your fur baby throughout their stay! 🐾 Seamless Communication: Prompt text updates and frame-worthy daily photos so you can enjoy total peace of mind while away. 🐾 Spoiled-Rotten Comfort: Endless belly rubs, soothing ear scratches, couch cuddles, and focused, gentle attention from morning to night. I follow all care instructions, administration of medicine schedules and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while doing my best to stay on their schedule at home that they are used to. My grandchildren sometimes visit to give extra love, but if your dog doesn’t get along with children, they won’t be present. 🐾 Flea & Tick Prevention: For the health, comfort, and safety of all pets staying in my home, I kindly ask that pets be current on flea and tick prevention prior to their stay. I work hard to maintain a clean, flea- and tick-free environment, and this helps protect your pet as well as the other pets in my care. Thank you for helping me keep my home comfortable and safe for everyone! 💕 Certified in CPR & Pet First Aid (08/2025) with verification badges in my photo gallery. I love building long-term relationships so your fur baby looks forward to coming back! For your convenience, I have a kennel available at my home if your pup is crate-trained or enjoys having a cozy space to relax. You’re welcome to use mine, so there’s no need to bring one back and forth unless you prefer to.

“Sherrie was AMAZING and my dog (Jasper) absolutely loved her. This is the first time I had to use a house/pet sitter and I was so nervous prior to meeting Sherrie. I have only ever left my dog with family members because he is my world and I had no reservations leaving him in Sherrie's care. She came highly recommended by my neighbor and I now know why. She sent me updates multiple times a day and took such great care of my boy. She also left my house immaculately clean! Jasper I and can't wait to have her back soon! I cannot recommend Sherrie and her services enough.”

“Hunter did a great job taking care of my dogs. They liked him from the moment he walked in the house, so I felt at ease leaving them in his care. Hunter kept me updated throughout the time with phone calls and texts. And he also cleaned up after them when one had an accident. I was pleased with the service. Highly recommended.”

About: I have a dog of my own, an Australian shepherd named Lady. I have taken care of a few dogs before and I quite enjoy it. I love and enjoy walking dogs. I also enjoy cats as well. I have had a cat for about 16 years. she was my very first pet ever to have. She has been with me since I was a baby. Sadly she passed in August of 2021. I can do the weekends from anytime. I can stop by after 6 o’clock to check up on your furry friends. But normally the weekends is when I’m free. I make sure that the dog or dogs are fed and taken care of course. I follow the owner's details and rules. I am very patient and outgoing and also a very active person.

About: I have been pet sitting for years and I care for animals on the daily so it’s something I am very comfortable and serious about. I work full time but will always make time for a pet that needs some extra attention and loving when their loved ones are away. I am able to care for your pets before and after work everyday of the week. I am comfortable with all kinds of pets even pets with special medical needs. If they need to watched in the backyard or crated when no one is home I am comfortable with that as well.

About: I have 3 pups of my own, and work with cats and dogs every day as a veterinary technician assistant at The PARC Animal Hospital. I've always loved animals, and feel so fortunate to be able to make that my full-time job! I would be honored to care for your pets while you're away! I currently work 10-hour shifts Thursday, Friday and Saturday, but would love to come hang out with your fur babies Sunday through Wednesday! I can swing by for walks or for cuddle time and feedings, or stay over and house sit. I will make sure for pets are safe and secure. I have one reactive dog, so I'm very familiar with keeping him safe and not putting anyone in an unsafe situations. I am experienced at giving meds, so I'm happy to administer anything from a pill at dinner time or an injection.

About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover and understand that pets are family. I provide dependable, attentive care so you can travel with confidence, knowing your pets and home are in good hands. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, cats, and other household pets. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, a consistent routine, or simply companionship, I tailor my care to their individual needs. I’m patient with senior pets, attentive to medication schedules and special instructions, and committed to maintaining the routines that help pets feel safe and comfortable. In addition to pet care, I take pride in keeping a clean, secure, and well-maintained home. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and respectful of your property. I’ll provide regular updates, photos, and prompt communication so you always know how your pets are doing. As a mature, responsible professional, I understand the importance of trust, reliability, and treating your pets and home with the same care and respect I would expect for my own. Pet care fits well into my schedule. I work a four-day week, with two days working remotely and two days in the office, which gives me flexibility to provide attentive, dependable care. On my remote workdays, I’m home throughout the day for companionship, walks, playtime, feeding, and potty breaks. On office days, I plan my schedule carefully to ensure pets receive the care and attention they need before and after work. My evenings and weekends are generally open, allowing me to dedicate quality time to pet sitting, house sitting, overnight stays, and maintaining your pet’s normal routine. I understand how important consistency is, and I’m committed to providing reliable, loving care while you’re away. Safety, security, and your pet’s well-being are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or providing drop-in visits, I take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so they feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and household routines. I ensure doors, gates, and windows are secure, keep a close eye on your pet during walks and outdoor time, and maintain a clean, safe environment at all times. I also understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust. I’ll treat your home with the utmost respect, keep everything tidy, bring in mail or packages if requested, water plants, and provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets and home are being cared for with the same attention and respect I would give my own.

“Christina did a great job house-sitting with my 90+ lb dog. She followed instructions on feeding and walking perfectly. Christina was also willing to water my plants for me while I was gone. Christina kept me updated and sent me pictures on the walks. She was very friendly, courteous, and punctual. She was easy to communicate with throughout the whole process. I returned to my home just as clean as when I left, and most importantly, I returned to a healthy, happy puppy. I would highly recommend Christina for your pup.”

About: Hello! Thank you for visiting my profile. Working at home (mine or yours) full time gives me a flexible schedule and the time to give your fur babies the love and attention they need.

I love small and large breeds and have had experience with puppies, seniors and special needs animals. I am a big communicator and will give you daily updates and pictures/texts while you’re away. I would love to do a meet and greet with you and look forward to meeting you and yours! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule so am able to dedicate the time needed to care for your pet and give you updates as needed I can care for your pet in your home or mine.

About: My connection to animals is deeply personal, and my heart has been completely open to dogs my entire life. While I work professionally as a certified freelance book editor from home, my deepest personal passion is providing a safe, fiercely protective, and loving environment for animals. Over the last fifteen years, I have personally cared for our family pets throughout every stage of their lives—from the boundless energy of puppyhood to the tender, quiet care required during a senior pet’s final weeks. I am intimately familiar with precise feeding schedules, structured neighborhood walks, crate training, and maintaining strict house routines. For several years, I also provided regular weekday pet-sitting care for my sister’s dogs while she traveled for work, ensuring their comfort and stress-free security while she was away, always caring for them as if they were my own. Having recently walked through the profound grief of losing our beloved family dog this spring, I miss the quiet joy and daily companionship that animals bring into a home. As a highly sensitive, intuitive person, I tune into an animal’s unspoken emotional needs and comfort levels instantly. I treat every pet in my care with the exact same high attention to detail, physical safety boundaries, and deep devotion that I would give to my own family. Your pet will have my full, reliable companionship, a calm environment to rest in while I work at my desk, and a caregiver who honors their routine completely. As a full-time freelance book editor, I work entirely from home on a self-paced, flexible schedule. This means your pet's routine becomes the central anchor of my daily workflow. Because I am at my desk for long focus blocks throughout the day, I am physically present to provide reliable companionship, immediate potty breaks, and a highly stable environment. I integrate regular, structured walks and precise feeding times smoothly around my editing windows, ensuring your dog receives consistent attention, care, and stability without long stretches of being left alone. Safety and complete trust are the non-negotiable baselines of my care. When staying at a client's home, I respect their personal property with the utmost professionalism and follow their specific security guidelines to the letter. To minimize stress for your pet, I replicate their established feeding, sleeping, and crating routines exactly as they are used to. During outdoor neighborhood walks, I maintain absolute visual awareness; keep dogs on a secure, short leash at all times; and strictly avoid high-risk environments like public dog parks or interactions with unfamiliar animals. I focus entirely on structured, low-stress care that prioritizes your pet's physical security and emotional peace of mind above all else.

Stop! You have found the right house/dog/cat sitter for you. My wife and I planned an extended vacation and certain circumstances led us to Rover and finding Kayla H. From the very beginning, Kayla responded promptly and was very helpful guiding us through the process. From our initial messages, to the meet and greet, through her entire stay in our home, Kayla never said no to any request, and did things above, and beyond. Kayla was respectful in our home and most importantly she treated our two dogs and two cats in the same manner that we care and love them. Kayla’s attitude, personality, and most importantly her actions provided us with ease to go on vacation carefree. We cannot provide a strong enough recommendation for you to use Kayla for your sitting needs. My only hope is that Kayla is available for our next vacation.

We had Cassidy take care of our dog Myron for the first time last weekend. She stayed at our house with Myron as he is 14 and leaving home brings on major anxiety. From the photos Cassidy sent you could tell he was actually smiling! She took such great care of Myron and we are using her again next month. So thankful for her love of Myron❤️

FAQs for House Sitting - Primrose

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Primrose on Rover is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $67 per night. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 1,884 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Primrose. 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 Primrose 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 Primrose 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.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Primrose 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 , 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 .

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 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.

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

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
