“Hannah did a great job with our two pups while we were out of town. She gave our dogs the love and attention. Would 10 out of 10 recommend her! if we are ever go out of town, we would love for her to take care of our pups again.”
About: Gentle giant whose goal is to walk a great dane!! Despite my height (6'11) I've only ever had great experiences with pets and being understanding. I've spent the last year raising a black Labrador named gauge from 2 weeks old and he's my best friend. I've dog sat for most family members on multiple occasions as my "side hustle". I've also got 2 kittens at home who are spoiled rotten. It would be an honor to take care of your little or not so little blessings!! Schedule is pretty open as I've relocated from east Texas into the area just recently. I'm almost always free to walk or drop in on any short notice :) Attention to detail!! Any specific rules or regimens will be followed just how you tell/show me. Keeping them comfortable and full of joy whether that be at home and/or having some time outside is my goal! Thank you for your consideration :)
“I was initially very anxious to leave Leo for a week long trip, but Stephany made these worries disappear instantly. She sent so many pictures throughout the day, you could tell that she has so much love for dogs. Leo seemed so happy to be with her and thanks to Stephany - I was able to spend my vacation days without worrying!”
“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Kristie! She took absolutely incredible care of our three dogs and treated them like they were her own. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were not only safe and well cared for, but genuinely loved while we were away. Kristie also looked after our home with the same level of care and attention. Everything was spotless and exactly as we left it when we returned. On top of that, she was unbelievably flexible and accommodating when our travel plans changed at the last minute. She handled everything with professionalism, kindness, and zero stress. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and truly compassionate to care for your pets and home, Kristie is the absolute best. We would recommend her without hesitation and can’t wait to book her again!”
“Michael was incredible. He took such amazing care of our pup while we were out of town. He sent us so many pictures, videos, and live updates. Michael communicated so well with us and followed all of our request to a T. Our pup has a lot of energy and high anxiety and he did an amazing job of keeping her active with serval walks and calm by giving her lots of love. We already rebooked with Michael and will continue to use him in the future. I already recommended him to friends and family. Highly recommend! He was amazing!”
About: I currently have 2 dogs - Morkies (Yorkies and Maltese mix). Pets have always been a part of my life. Family and friends tell me that I treat my dogs like they are people; I say that I just love them and they love me. You can be sure that I would love and care for your pets just as much. Please don't leave them home alone. Contact me and enjoy your time away from home - your pets will be in great hands with attentive care. My schedule is flexible which allows me the opportunity to be home during the day, and all nights. Please, no aggressive dogs. I will make sure that your dogs are comfortable and safe with me. I have an 8' fenced back yard, with security cameras. I enjoy being outside with your furbabies and will provide that extra level of security when they are running around in the backyard. I have hard floors for easy clean-up. I also provide extra blankets to keep your furbabies warm. I also have a separate eating area set up for your furbabies. I keep one extra crate, if needed when you bring your dog.
About: I've been a foster carer for various greyhound organizations here (ATX and DFW) and in Australia. I get the hounds that are cat safe and get them used to living with cats. I'm always fostering, which is why I cannot take in more dogs for sitting, but I can do pop-ins. Before I fostered greyhounds, I used to petsit for friends' parents. I love to scritch ears, make up stupid songs for them, and play on the floor. My current pack consists of two sighthound mixes and two middle-management cats. Am I Katy or Mary? Both. The joy of going by either the first name or the nickname. You can call me Katy. The IRS can keep calling me Mary ... and please, if you're from IRS, don't call me. I am currently working from home and would love the excuse to get out and walk or, when it's really too hot, engage in play in the backyard. I am mindful of the various personalities I could encounter. I understand that not all pets want to play. Some want to chill and know that you're there. Others need to get that energy out. When doing pop ins, I would be mindful of what their humans say.
“Karina was great!!! She dog/house sat for 5 nights. I could tell she paid attention to all the notes I left her (which was a crazy amount lol) and kept the dogs in their normal routine. It’s been such a relief to find someone we trust to stay at our home with our doggies while we’re away. Highly recommend! 💕”
“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.”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 5 years, from my own two cats(Rosie and Ferguson) to friends’ and family’s pets whenever they travel. I’ve sat for and walked senior dogs, so I’m patient with slower paces, stiff joints and pets who need a little extra care! I’m also comfortable with high-energy newborn animals who need a little more attention too! I currently have a fairly flexible schedule. I’m available to maneuver around dates and any last minute things that may pop up for you. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel safest. I know your home is your haven, so I respect your space completely. I follow your routine, leave everything as I found it and lock up every time.
About: I’ve always had a soft spot for animals, and I know how much our pets mean to us! I understand that every cat has their own little personality, whether they’re cuddly, curious, playful, or prefer their own space. I love getting to know what makes each pet feel happy and comfortable. I’ll treat your cat with the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own pet. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved while you’re away! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care.I enjoy spending time with animals, whether it’s going for walks, playing, or simply keeping them company. I do my best to accommodate each pet’s routine and make sure they receive the love and attention they deserve! Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority! I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs. Whether I’m caring for them in your home or mine, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll also keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away!
About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! Although I’m new to Rover, I have years of personal experience caring for pets and I’m committed to providing safe, loving care and clear communication. I am currently a college student, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent and reliable pet care. I am able to plan my classes and free time around pet visits, walks, and overnight stays to make sure each pet gets the attention they need. I’m available on weekdays between classes as well as evenings and weekends, and I prioritize being punctual, dependable, and fully present when caring for animals. My schedule gives me the ability to stay organized while still giving pets plenty of care, attention, and companionship. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they can feel relaxed and cared for. I make sure they have regular walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, crate time if needed, and any specific instructions from the owner. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel secure, loved, and stress-free while staying with me.
“Ashlee M. Is awesome pet and home sitter!!! Even after a large snake was curled up on our front door her first day, that did not deter her from doing a great job with our pets and home! Would recommend, trust and use her again anytime!”
“Penny is the absolute best you could hope for. She loved our babies like we do and that's the most we could ask for. She's wise, smart, fun and very good at caretaking. Definitely recommended and will have her over again soon. Thx Penny, Blitz Tucker Willow and Daisy say " thank you! " ♥️♥️♥️♥️”
About: Hi! I’m so glad to be able to care for your fur baby like it’s my own. I have years of experience caring for dogs & cats. I personally own two dogs & one cat! I know each animal is special to every family, and I want to be able to help in any way. I have a very flexible schedule and reliable transportation. I have cared for dogs all sizes, and understand each pet has their own personality. I enjoy taking the time out to help out, since I know how crazy ones day can get. I am very efficient and on time. I look forward to giving your fur baby all the love it deserves while you’re away. Thanks so much for the opportunity!
About: I’ve owned pets all my life. I started taking actual responsibility when I was 10. I know how much care animals need. I’m here for them! I work full time from home. This makes the flexibility of checking in your animals that much easier. I can come as little or as much as your need. I always make sure my animals are comfortable and safe. They know they are well loved. Each animal has a different style of love. Some are more touchy feely than others! I respect their preference.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sachse
Tug just loves Stephany. And she handles my 75 pound pitbull like a pro. He can be anxious when we go but is not anxious when she is here. And she loves him back - all things are good….clean house, respectful of our space but honestly, it is how she genuinely loves our dog that makes all the difference. Thank you
Kiana was so great. She communicated so well and with a dog that has a medical condition I never once worried if anything was wrong. My home was well taken care of and she went above and beyond for the pups. I would absolutely book her again! Thank you Kiana!
Grayson responded to my request quickly he was very responsive and planned a visit quickly. It was so convenient to have him in my neighborhood, and his rate was a very good one (so appreciative). I appreciate Grayson's attention to detail in taking care of my fur baby and friend. I would definitely book Grayson again!
I cannot recommend Rebecca enough! She stayed in our home for two weeks while we were out of the country to care for our elderly dog and cat, and she exceeded every expectation we had. Leaving senior pets can be stressful, but she made the entire experience completely worry-free, we have never been on vacation without worrying about our babies until now. Rebecca provided thoughtful daily updates with photos, giving us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious from every message that she genuinely cared for our pets and treated them with so much love, patience, and compassion. She also administered our dog’s daily medications with great care and consistency, which was incredibly important to us. She went above and beyond—not only making sure they were comfortable, well cared for, but also taking wonderful care of our home. I truly don’t even have the words to express our gratitude for Rebecca and everything she did for us while we were away. We are so glad we found her.
A'Lauren did a fantastic job caring for Bodie and Peyton! She was very communicative, provided regular updates and photos, and it was clear she spent quality time with them. We felt comfortable knowing they were in good hands while we were away. We would absolutely book with A'Lauren again and highly recommend her to others.
Robbie was fantastic! Robbie was professional, punctual and very attentive to our three pups. Robbie went above and beyond with the pups by taking them on daily walks and playing with them every time he came over. I can’t recommend Robbie enough to care for you pups, he was trustworthy and communicated effectively while we were away on vacation. Thank you Robbie!
Marisa did an amazing job taking care of my two dogs. She communicated daily with pictures and updates. She wrote down all of their needs during the meet visit which makes everything very easy. I definitely would have her watch my dogs again in the future. She gave me peace of mind while I was away for a few days.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Sachse is $48 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $66 per night. On Rover, 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 November 2026, there are 4,041 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sachse. 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 Sachse 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 Sachse 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 Sachse 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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 Sachse. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
