About: Pet care is my full time job, so I have open availability! I am also a proud owner of a fully trained German Shepard. I’m open to doing dog walking/playtime, day sitting and overnights! I’m a full time student graduating in criminal justice with bachelor degree this coming summer 2027 who is responsible and dependable. All prices are negotiable depending on the needs. I’ve been a pet lover and caretaker since I was 10 years old. I’m 22 yrs old now and a proud owner of a 5 yr old German Shepherd who is fully trained. I believe all animals deserve one on one attention, care, & Love. I care for pets by making sure their basic needs are met first. Along with assuring each pet is happy and are enjoying their time with me. So much that I want them to be excited with just hearing my name. Whether in my home or at a clients home I follow any specific care instructions, maintain a clean space and provide consistent attentions, love and care to help pets feel safe and happy in my presence.
“Lauren did a phenomenal job with our fur babies. From the time she replied to our request she took the time to listen and understand our challenges. Then she came over and took the time to familiarize herself with both of our babies ensuring there wouldn’t be any issues. Great job and great person.”
“I truly can’t recommend Katie enough! From the moment we left, I knew my boys were in the best hands. She loved and cared for them like they were her own, and all of the photos and updates she sent made being away from them so much easier. It was obvious they were happy, comfortable, and getting so much love and attention. Coming home to two happy pups and an unexpectedly tidy house was the icing on the cake. She went above and beyond in every way, and I’m so grateful for the care she gave both our dogs and our home. We will 100% be booking with her again, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can completely trust with their pets.”
“We really enjoyed having you watch the boys! We appreciated how communicative you were the entire time, and we loved receiving the pictures and updates as well.”
“Meghean was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of Tiger and Sky, kept me updated with messages and photos, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely cared for them and treated them like her own. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for pets. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and caring pet sitter. Thank you so much, Meghean!”
“As first-time clients with two energetic dogs, we couldn’t be happier with Caitlin. She is very reliable & kind and clearly an animal lover. Her communication was excellent providing us peace of mind while away. We are beyond thankful for such a positive experience and highly recommend her services!!”
About: 💖 Affordable, Loving Pet Care You Can Trust 💖 ✨ Affordable & Flexible Pricing! ✨ I believe every pet deserves amazing care, no matter the budget. My prices are adjustable, and I’m always happy to work with you whenever possible. If you’re looking for a lower rate or have a specific budget in mind, please don’t hesitate to text or email me! My contact information is listed in my photos, and I’d be happy to discuss pricing and availability with you. Hi! My name is Lindsay, and I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since 2017. Animals have always been one of the biggest parts of my life, and nothing makes me happier than making sure they’re safe, loved, and comfortable while their families are away. While I welcome pets of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, I especially specialize in caring for energetic puppies, senior dogs, kittens, and cats that require medications or extra attention. 🐶 Energetic puppies receive plenty of walks, playtime, potty breaks, enrichment, exercise, and one-on-one attention to help keep them happy and on their routine. 🐕 Senior dogs receive patient, gentle care with slower walks, extra comfort, medication reminders if needed, and lots of love and companionship. 🐱 I also love caring for kittens and cats of all ages, including shy cats, senior cats, and cats that require oral medications or specialized care. I understand that every cat has a different personality, and I’m happy to provide anything from active playtime to quiet companionship. Over the years, I’ve provided pet sitting, overnight stays, dog walking, boarding, house sitting, and drop-in visits for family, friends, neighbors, and clients. I’ve cared for pets ranging from tiny kittens and playful puppies to senior pets needing specialized care, anxious pets, rescue animals, and multi-pet households. I’m comfortable with: 🐾 Energetic puppies and young dogs 🐾 Senior dogs needing extra patience and gentle care 🐾 Kittens and cats of all ages 🐾 Oral medication administration for cats and dogs 🐾 Overnight pet and house sitting 🐾 Dog walking and exercise 🐾 Drop-in visits 🐾 Boarding (when available) 🐾 Feeding schedules and fresh water 🐾 Caring for multiple pets in one household Every pet is different, so I always take time to learn their routine, personality, favorite activities, feeding schedule, and any special instructions. My goal is to keep life as normal and stress-free as possible while you’re away. One thing my clients appreciate is that I send frequent photo and video updates, so you’ll always know how your pets are doing. I know how hard it can be to leave them behind, and I want you to have complete peace of mind knowing they’re receiving the same love, attention, and care I’d give my own pets. 🏡 24/7 Availability & 24-Hour Care I’m available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, making it easy to accommodate early mornings, late nights, weekends, holidays, and last-minute bookings whenever possible. I also provide 24-hour care for pets that need constant companionship or supervision. This is especially helpful for: * Puppies who need frequent potty breaks and lots of playtime * Senior dogs who benefit from extra monitoring and comfort * Cats requiring medication or specialized routines * Pets with separation anxiety * Any pet that simply does better with someone nearby throughout the day and night I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s unique needs. Dogs receive regular walks, exercise, potty breaks, playtime, fresh water, feeding according to schedule, and lots of affection. Cats receive clean litter boxes, fresh food and water, medication if needed, playtime, enrichment, or quiet companionship—whatever makes them feel most comfortable. If I’m caring for your pets in your home, I’ll treat your home with the same respect I’d treat my own. I’m happy to bring in mail or packages, water plants, follow household routines, and help keep everything secure while you’re away. Above all, I pride myself on being dependable, trustworthy, patient, and genuinely passionate about caring for animals. My goal is to build lasting relationships with both pets and their owners so you always have someone you can rely on. 📩 Questions? Need Different Availability or Pricing?

I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members! 🩷 Pet care is more than just a job to me—it’s something I’m genuinely passionate about and dedicate my time to every day. I’m available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, allowing me to be flexible around each pet’s individual routine and needs. Whether your pet needs daytime companionship, overnight care, frequent potty breaks, walks, medication, or regular check-ins throughout the day, I’m committed to providing dependable, attentive care. I truly love spending time with animals, and I make it my priority to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and as stress-free as possible while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family and strive to keep their daily routine as normal and consistent as possible, giving owners complete peace of mind knowing their pets are receiving around-the-clock love, attention, and personalized care. I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine and needs. For dogs, this includes regular walks, potty breaks, playtime, exercise, feeding according to their schedule, fresh water at all times, and plenty of affection and companionship. For cats, I ensure feeding schedules are maintained, litter boxes are kept clean, and they receive the attention, playtime, or quiet companionship they prefer. I am comfortable administering basic medications as directed by owners and carefully monitoring pets for any changes in behavior, appetite, or overall well-being. I also help maintain a clean environment by cleaning up accidents, washing food and water bowls, scooping litter boxes, and keeping pet areas tidy. If caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with the utmost respect. I can bring in mail or packages, water plants, follow household routines, and help keep your home secure while you’re away. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners.
“John has taken care of our two aging bulldogs twice now. The dogs are stress free and all is in order when we return. We will definitely reach out to John for our pet care needs in the future.”
“We have had Christina watch her dogs in our home a few times now. She is great with communication and sends us pictures to keep us updated. She is very reliable and we trust her in our home. I would highly recommend her.”
About: I have 5 years of pet care experience. I have experience in all kinds of pets, from check in to feedings, walks and clean up. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to care your pets. Im available for walking, sitting and check ins all week and spontaneous scheduling as well. Keeping to their normal routine to minimize stress is one of my biggest priorities. Makes for a calmer happier pet as most get stressed being away from their parent.
“Alex took care of my dogs amazingly!! He was very attentive and followed instructions to the tee. I loved how he sent me daily updates, photos, and brought any concerns that he had with the pups to my attention. I highly recommend him and will definately use him in the future. He cared for my pups as if they were his own and that made me very happy! He truly loved on and played with my pups when I wasn't there to do so myself. Thank you Alex!!!!”
About: I’ve spent my lifetime taking care of dogs. I grew up owning dogs and spend my free time volunteering at the local humane society. I have experience handling dogs of all sizes, ages, and breeds. At home, I have a 3 year old pit bull mix and a tiny 14 year old cockapoo. I’ve cared for puppies and young dogs, training them to walk nicely on a leash, ring a bell to go outside, and do simple tricks like sit, lay down, shake, and more. I enjoy spending time with animals and developing tailored care for all personalities. I work Wednesday’s and Thursday’s 8-4pm, but I am open all other days and hours outside of that. I’m available for drop ins, overnights, and for walks. It depends on the pets and their specific needs. I work with the owner making sure that the expectations are met and each pet gets the personalized care they need.
“We couldn’t be happier with Jaime! She was absolutely amazing. Our dogs, Luna and Norman, adored her from the start, and it was clear they were well-loved and well-cared for while we were away. We came home to a spotless house — she even picked up the dog poop in the yard and washed the sheets she used, which went above and beyond our expectations. We will definitely be using Jaime again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring sitter!”
“Chandler was amazing! She took fantastic care of our sweet fur baby! Sent us updates and pictures, made sure she was safe during the ice storm and left the house in pristine condition. We will most definitely use Chandler again!! Highly recommend her!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Terrell
Elizabeth did a fantastic job watching our two senior pups! She was very communicative and sent updates every visit. She was incredibly patient with our more anxious dog and spent a lot of time making sure our pups were comfortable and safe. I can’t say enough how grateful and impressed we are!
Nicole was great with our dogs. Stella my Weimaraner has very bad anxiety. She doesn’t really warm up to many people. She just loved Nicole. I had no worries leaving her with Nicole. I will definitely use Nicole again. Thanks Nicole for making my trip relaxing.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Terrell on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 2,590 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Terrell. 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 Terrell 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 Terrell 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 Terrell 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 Terrell. 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.
