“Trevor was wonderful during a not so great time for my pup. Burt was in post op recovery and Trevor was able to take great care of him, provided daily updates, took him for his stroller rides and gave him his meds so he can rest up.”

About: Whether you have a rambunctious puppy whos curiosity gets the better of them, an adolescent who wishes to have the tennis ball thrown 100 times, an adult who just wants a couch companion, or a senior dog who needs help getting down the stairs for their daily walk, I'm your gal! I have experience administering medication, have given insulin shots, as well as have owned and managed deaf, blind and pregnant dogs. I have also helped welp a litter of GSDs. Although I have a HUGE soft spot for Bully breeds (PLEASE share your pitties, staffies, bulldogs, dobbies and rotties with me!) I have worked with and house sat for dogs of all size, age and breeds. All dogs deserve love, respect and companionship❤️ My entire life revolves around animals as thats my entire career. I work on a horse ranch and take care of a herd of 26 horses. I have worked in domestic pet and livestock feed and nutrition and have helped owners find the best dietary fit for their animals needs whether special needs or just wanting to fit their lifestyle. Pet welfare is my entire goal in life- with me your pet is more than just another name on a screen. They are a unique individual I cannot wait to meet and learn about inside and out- from their happy wagging tail to their wet, curious sniffer. My animals are my number 1! My own dog goes to daycare atleast 2x a week to get social time on days I know I may be gone long and my cats are provided a clean, fresh environment that they can get the zoomies and run around together. They always come before I do. Water bows are cleaned daily, each animal gets one on one time with me daily and they all get enrichment toys and treats. Just as I treat my own animals, I will treat yours because I understand just how important they are to you and want to give full peace of mind that your animals are left in good, reliable and trustworthy hands no matter the circumstances.

About: I have cared for a variety of animals and am comfortable caring for any pet (including exotic or uncommon), any age, any size, any level of care, and any personality! I have past experience caring for senior animals (including dogs, cats, and horses) as well as animals under age 1 (including dogs and cats). I often volunteer at the Birmingham Humane Society! Although I am not offering training services, I have experience training and am willing to uphold any training regimen. I have experience shadowing a household pet veterinarian as well as an equine veterinarian. I also have farm animal care experience. I love playtime and am very attentive! I am very excited to care for your pet! I am available to sit weekends and after 7 pm on weekdays. I can do daytime feedings or walks 2 or 3 times a day. I am available for boarding weekends and weekdays after 7 pm. My apartment is the perfect environment for boarding! I am available for boarding some weekdays all day, but I will need notice 5 days and to coordinate in advance for boarding on a weekday before 7 pm due to shifting schedule days. For walks, let me know an estimated average walk time for your pet so that they are comfortable and happy! For sitting, I will clean any pet messes if needed. Require a decently clean home and closer distance if overnight sitting is needed. Please, let me know of any concerns ahead of time. For boarding, I am in a one bedroom apartment with no other pets and decent play space. I have no toys, litter boxes, or cat trees so will need to provide their own. I live next to a large unfenced park. The apartment is clean and tidy and safe for pets. The apartment building also has a pet bathing station available if your pet needs cleaning. If you are concerned with a public bathing station, I am perfectly comfortable bathing your pet in the bath in my apartment. Please, let me know of any health or hygiene issues beforehand. Medications/allergies/health concerns are extremely important to me.

“Our dogs LOVE Krisie, and so do we! This was the first time we've left our dogs and didn't think twice about whether or not the dogs would have enough attention. So many updates, and the dogs were tired when we came back! Also, our 10 year old, Fran, is known to ignore new friends but she LOVES Krisie!”

My tenure at the hospital included hands-on work with a diverse range of pets, from administering medications to providing regular exercise routines tailored to their needs. Additionally, I've boarded numerous clients' dogs, ensuring their comfort and well-being throughout their stay. Trust me to pamper your pooch, right in the comfort of their own neighborhood! *I am not a trained or certified vet tech, my experience is general care only. As a full-time work from home-r, I'm seeking extra income to support my future goals. Available Fridays through Sundays, I'm passionate about pet care, drawing from 13+ years as a cat owner and professional experience. I also have a very active 2 year old dog who I take out to the dog park and on adventures regularly! Let me provide top-notch care for your furry friends! In my own home and while caring for clients' pets, I prioritize cleanliness and organization, ensuring a tidy environment at all times. My cats receive ample love and attention, with their needs, including a clean litter box, promptly attended to. Regular cleaning schedules are maintained to uphold a pristine living space for both my pets and those under my care. Rest assured, the well-being of animals always takes precedence in house care routines.

About: I’ve been around cats and dogs my entire life and have always enjoyed caring for animals. I regularly pet sit my friend Josh’s three cats when he’s away, making sure they’re fed, comfortable, and receiving plenty of attention. I also frequently care for my girlfriend’s dog, so I’m experienced with the day-to-day responsibilities that come with caring for dogs. Growing up with multiple cats and dogs has taught me how important patience, consistency, and attention to each pet’s individual personality can be. I understand that every animal has different routines and comfort levels, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe and relaxed. When your pet is in my care, my priority is providing a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment where they can feel at home. I’ll treat your pet with the same care and attention I would want for my own. I’m trying to make Rover my main job. So my schedule is pretty open at all times! Besides Rover. I produce music for clients. I will follow your instructions while in your home! Make sure they are fed properly and taken out on time! In my home, I try to mirror how you prefer things done in your home! I can crate them if needed.

About: I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs, whether that’s helping reinforce basic training and potty routines or being extra patient with older dogs and any special care they need. I also bring over 10+ years of babysitting experience, so being patient, attentive, and dependable is second nature to me. That same level of care and responsibility carries over into how I treat your pets. I am currently a graduate student at the University of South Alabama. Other than class, I have a flexible schedule, which makes it easy for me to accommodate morning, midday, and evening care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I try to keep everything as close to their normal routine as possible so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I follow feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific instructions you leave, including medications or special care. I’m respectful of your space and make sure your home stays clean and secure while you’re away. I also spend quality time with your pet. Whether that’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, so they’re not just being “checked on,” but actually cared for.

About: I love dogs, and while I’m not planning on getting one of my own right now, I’d love the opportunity to care for yours! Since I work remotely from home, I have the flexibility to give your dog plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. My goal is to make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work remotely from home and have a flexible schedule. That allows me to give dogs regular attention, take them on walks, provide playtime, and make sure they stay on their normal feeding and potty schedule. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs, so caring for them doesn’t feel like a chore! it’s something I look forward to. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where your pet feels comfortable and well cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I make sure they have fresh water, regular meals, plenty of exercise, and lots of attention throughout the day. Since I work remotely, I’m home most of the time, so your dog won’t be left alone for long periods. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions you provide. I also understand that every dog has a different personality, so I take the time to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

FAQs for House Sitting - Tarrant

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 559 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Tarrant. 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 Tarrant 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 Tarrant 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 Tarrant 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 Tarrant. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
