“Carla stayed at our house and cared for our dogs like noone else has. She is amazing with dogs! She had excellent communication with us during our vacation and sent pictures every day. Sam and Lacy thrived under Carla's care and relieved us of any worry about their well being. Carla is a true "dog whisperer"; so glad we found her. Don't hesitate to hire Carla, A+ in my book!”
About: I have taken care of Cats mostly but when I worked for the Pet Sitting agency I took care of dogs too. Some dogs required me to put down special food such as chicken and rice and his snacks were bagels. I'm currently a retired Federal Employee and Veteran of the armed services. I want to do other activities other than Uber driving (Sitting too long). I am trustworthy, never been in jail, have a clean driving record and due to being a rideshare driver I meet many people every day.

About: I’ve been around dogs for years and genuinely love caring for them. Friends and family regularly trust me to care for their pets while they’re away. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, maintaining routines, and giving pets plenty of attention. I’m patient, dependable, and understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to feel confident about who you’re leaving your pet with. I work full-time during the week, but I’m available for pet care after work and on most weekends. I’m typically available three weekends each month, with one weekend reserved for my Army obligations. I’ll always keep my availability updated so you’ll know exactly when I’m available to care for your pet. I have a spacious yard with plenty of room for outdoor time, play, and potty breaks. I’m very attentive to each pet’s routine and will follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, walks, medications, crate time, or other needs. Safety is extremely important to me, so pets will always be supervised and cared for according to their owner’s preferences.
About: Growing up we always had animals. I currently have a Great Dane. Very active with him. Lots of walks and cuddles. He’s very friendly, if pets stayed in the home with us. I do work full time but I have a flexible schedule. Mondays and Fridays I have the least flexibility I am still able to do 2 drop in visits on those days. Early morning and after 8pm. Please get with me on specific times if needed thank you! I have a Great Dane who is very friendly and will keep your dog company all day. I’m pretty flexible and can make sure to tend to your dogs normal schedule
“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! 💕”
About: Ive had pets my entire life, and my own dogs my entire adult life. I was a pet sitter in collage and have watched friends and families dogs for years! I currently work 5 days a week in Seagoville, but am avaliable after in the evenings and weekends! Particularly for nightly walks or evening nights out! I am experienced with walking dogs of all sized and leash skills. My own two dogs are pullers and high energy on a leash! I am more than comfortable feeding and administering oral medications!
“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.”
“She was an exceptional pet sitter, demonstrating great attentiveness and care. I have four dogs and a cat, each with different needs—from an elderly dog requiring medication and extra gentle attention to young, energetic dogs that thrive on play. She responded promptly to all situations, ensuring each pet received the appropriate care and affection.”
About: I've had dogs and cats for 16 years and I'm currently pet free at the moment. I've found myself with a lot of free time lately and I'd like to meet your pets and make sure they are well taken care of. I'm available most days except for evening hours. I'm taking time off work at the moment and would like to offer my time to people that might need a little extra help caring for their furry family members. Please provide detailed instructions so I am able to give your pet the care that they deserve. I will treat them like my own, and that means lots of pets and positive reinforcement!
“Erica was prompt, reliable and sweet to our two small pups. We received regular communication from her with photos. The moment we met her we felt confident that our puppies (who are like babies to us) would be well cared for and she exceeded our expectations. I recommend her for sure! Thank you, Erica!”
About: I have taken care of dogs for over 20 years. I had a cocker spaniel for 12 years until her passing. I have dog sat and boarded small dogs for friends for many years. I love dogs but not sure if I’m ready to get my own again. Losing a pet is hard but working for Rover will allow me the companionship of animals while also determining if I’m ready to own another pet. I work full-time close to downtown Dallas but have time to check in on your pets midday and after work. I am also available on the weekends. I am available to board small and medium size dogs in my home in Seagoville. I have a fenced back yard. You will need to provide your own crates. I currently do not have any pets that live in my home. For boarded pets, I will walk them in my neighborhood. I am able to follow any special instructions needed for your pet.
“I would highly, highly recommend Kristie! She did such an amazing job with our dog Josie, who had just lost her sister a few days before we went away. Kristie made sure that Josie was comforted and had all the extra love and care so she didn't feel lonely. We also received daily pictures and updates so we knew Josie was well taken care of. Having lost a dog before we left, we were uneasy about leaving Josie behind. But Kristie made us feel 100% like Josie was in the best hands and we knew she genuinely cared for her like she was her own. That was very meaningful to us. And, when we returned home, Kristie left a very thoughtful gift for us, which was a plant in memory of the dog we had just lost. I can't say how much that meant to us. Again, highly, highly recommend Kristie!”
“Flor was the sweetest thing and is just so great with dogs. I have a big one too and she handled it so well. She kept me updated and sent pictures throughout her stay. We both enjoyed her company.”
“Dylan was fantastic, he is kind, caring, communicative and detail oriented. He really went above and beyond caring for my dogs when I was out of town for the weekend. He made sure they had plenty of walks, quality time, and even cleaned my house before he left! Can not recommend Dylan enough, will absolutely use him again! You can tell Dylan is a true animal lover, my dogs were so chill when I got home I know they were in great hands with him!”
About: I help make your fur babies feel like they’re still at home. Take them on walks so they can get more than just a back yard experience. I work full time, Im off on Mondays and Tuesdays. I have roommates that can help me board your pets if needed to for an emergency. Don’t mind working something out! I have a fenced in yard so they’ll be able to go to the restroom on their own. I also have a dog they is super friendly and will keep them company. I show compassion and love to make them feel loved while the owner(s) are gone.
About: Living the WFH dream! I’m so lucky to be able to spend my workdays curled up with furry friends. I love getting to know animals — their boundaries, personalities, quirks, and needs. I especially like multi-day stays because it allows animals time to adjust to a new presence and settle back into their routine. I work from home Monday-Friday, so I’m available for pet care all day any day! I’m able to work into my day things like play time, walks, and cuddle time. When I’m caring for your pet, I’m also caring for your home and the environment around them. I’m more than happy to tidy up, bring in the mail, water the plants, whatever is needed to keep things running. When I’m caring for your pets in your home, my goal is to deliver care that makes them feel safe, comfortable, and calm. Transitions are hard, and I know how crucial consistency is to reducing an animal’s distress when the pet parents go out of town.
About: I’m 30 and have had dogs my entire life. I have two of our own — a 36-lb mini Sheepadoodle and a 13-lb Yorkie mix — so used to different sizes and energy levels. I regularly dog sit for friends, and often have their dogs stay with us while they’re on vacation. I am very comfortable having extra dogs in the house and keeping things structured and calm. I live in a home with two separate fenced yards, so there’s plenty of safe space to play or relax. My job permits me to work from home often, which means the dogs aren’t be left alone for long stretches. I also volunteer with the SPCA 3–4 times a month (10+ hours), working hands-on with dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I’m a full-time realtor, so my schedule is flexible and I work from home often. That allows me to be around consistently and adjust my day as needed for walks, playtime, and supervision. I am active with our own dogs — take them to the park as often as possible and walk them 2–4 times per week. Staying engaged with them is already part of my routine, so adding another dog fits naturally into the day. I home with two separate fenced-in yards, which gives dogs secure outdoor space to play and relax safely. My two dogs are well-socialized and regularly exposed to family members' dogs as well as new dogs at the dog park. Because I often dog sit for friends and I volunteer regularly with the SPCA, I am very comfortable managing different personalities, energy levels, and introductions in a calm, structured way.
About: I am a proud parent of a (king shepherd) named Anubis. I have recently lost my Lacey at her young age of 14 due to cancer. When a friend told me about this adorable puppy she was looking to find a home for who was abused and abandoned by the breeders due to him having flaws, I immediately knew I wanted him when she told me that. My friend showed up to my door with a puppy he was 8 months old and about 110lbs! He is now 150lbs and the happiest pup ever. I am able to choose what shift I want to take at my job therefore I am able to spend my days helping people with their fur babies as much as possible. I have a decent sized back yard, plus I will be home with the fur babies to play with them and walk and feed them.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Talty is $52 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $42 and $83 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 2,003 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Talty. 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 Talty 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 Talty 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 Talty 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 Talty. 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.
