Robin was a fantastic sitter for our cats. She communicated clearly, sending us daily updates/pics. Three of our four cats required daily medical care for the duration of our trip, and all four cats were in excellent health and very happy upon our return. She followed my (admittedly over-the-top) instructions to a T and went above and beyond with her care of our home. I will definitely be reaching out to her again for future pet sits.

Cam was fantastic with Cookie and Bizzy! She was communicative, attentive, and followed instructions perfectly. She handled all the usual cat antics with patience and humor, and it was clear she genuinely cared about their comfort and wellbeing. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands and would absolutely book her again.

About: I have taken care of dogs for the past 5 years, including a chihuahua of my own and my family’s dogs. I have experience raising puppies and caring for senior dogs as well. Even though every dog is different, I am able to provide adequate care and attention to every fur baby that I have the privilege of looking after. I am currently a student and have plenty of down time when I am not at school. This includes Fridays and Weekends and I can be pretty flexible with time! I keep frequent communication with pet owners, I’m able to accommodate to a dog needs, and am pretty knowledgeable about dog behavior to know their needs.

About: From the age of 12, I've been taking care of pets. My passion for providing pets with the utmost care and attention has grown over the years. Through my experience, I have not only developed a strong sense of compassion for all animals, but I have also developed the ability to handle any situation. I have a trio of furry friends, but what sets them apart is that I've taken it upon myself to raise, train, and deliver two of them. The third one was a gift, but they've all become an integral part of my life. Rest assured that your beloved pet will be treated with the same love and care that I give to my furry friends. You can trust me to provide your pet with the attention and affection they deserve. As an independent worker, I have the flexibility to be there for you and your furry friends whenever you need me. Count on me to provide reliable and attentive care for your pets. As such, please book accordingly so that I may be able to give your babies the attention and care they deserve. At the moment, I don't provide in-home pet services. However, I'm committed to adhering to all safety guidelines to guarantee your furry friend's well-being and an enjoyable experience.

Peter took care of our 5 yr old Husky Mix and 8 month old Labrador while we were out of town. This included house sitting. The pets got great care and play time and the house was well taken care of. Highly recommend! I hope he can pet sit for us in the future.

My current availability is mornings and evenings M-F, and all day weekends. My schedule does get filled quickly, but if given enough notice I should have flexibility! I work full-time, but I still have times during the week that I devote to my pets and yours. I make sure that each animal tended gets adequate exercise, attention, and even training as needed. I currently don’t offer in-house boarding at this time, but I often do house visits and dog walking.

I have a set system that also ensures the safety of information such as addresses, keys, etc. so that it will never become a concern. I also take LOTS of photos and videos each time I visit, so that each client I work with can guarantee I do everything correctly and am being as safe as I can with their fur-babies:)

Millie was great! Louie and Gus were well taken care of while we’re away for a week. Pups were in great spirits when we arrived back home. Communication was very good and pictures of pups were provided throughout the stay. I would definitely use Millie again.

About: I’ve had multiple pets for multiple years. I’ve fostered, rescued, rehabbed, and taken care of multiple dogs at a time for multiple years. They have a wide range of personalities, needs, and interests. I’ve worked with aggressive, resource-protective, calm, and medically needing dogs. I’m capable and equipped to take care of them and help your home function well! I’m a business owner with a very flexible schedule. I can usually be available quickly and last minute if needed. I also can handle large stretches of days and time brackets. I create an environment for my visits that are curated too what your pets are most comfortable with. That being said I love to get to know what makes your pet comfortable and help to emulate the kind of routine that helps them not miss a beat of their routine!

Alora did a great job housesitting for our two pups. She was available on short notice, and she even made time to come by for a meet and greet. One of our dogs has stranger danger, but she liked Alora immediately! Alora was communicative and sent lots of pictures. I was able to relax while traveling knowing my pups were in good hands. I definitely recommend booking with her!

About: I have watched, walked, and taken care of friends, family and coworkers pets for years. I also have my own I take care of daily! I work second shift at a restaurant so I have plenty of time before work and then time after work for night routine as well. I am flexible with whatever special care your pets needs, whether it be socializing at a dog park or private walks in the neighborhood. I also have a really cool cat wall if the cats would like a kitty play date.

FAQs for House Sitting - Tarrant

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 608 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 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.

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

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
