Pups seemed quite happy with Lydia and she was wonderful providing initial meet & greet and then being extremely punctual arriving at the crack of dawn so we could get an early start and staying until we returned the following evening. She sent photos through our absence so we felt assured that all was well & even let these spoiled pups sleep with her!

I highly recommend Mireille for pet/house sitting!! She was awesome and definitely exceeded my expectations! The day we had to fly out our air conditioner stopped working! Mireille assured me she would be available for the repairman and would take my pets to her house if needed. She was at our home while the air conditioner was fixed, and kept us informed that hectic day. She also took great care of my dog and parrot! I got pictures of my animals and updates during our vacation. She put my dog's thunder jacket on when the neighbors shot some fire works off, and kept my dog calm. She also let my parrot out of the cage so the bird could eat and play on her perch. I have never felt so comfortable leaving my pets on vacation!!

About: Our fur babies and fur children are more than mere pets, they're valued members of the family and deserve the dedicated love, honor and respect which they bestow upon us. These traits I've learned from the beloved dogs I've had the pleasure to interact with from youth to now with my Siberian Husky, King Shepherd, and Labrador-Collie puppy. Overnight sitting is best for our pets in their known environment to ease the development of separation anxiety and to provide the appropriate level of comfort with affectionate support and encouraging companionship. By learning the necessary fitness & nutritional values from my mom to engage in a healthy lifestyle for ourselves, our furry family members require the same for their health and stamina to be maintained. I ensure properly safe walks full of scenic beauty filled with pleasant scents to peak curiosity along with free play at the dog park if requested. For daily check-in, to determine the welfare of the pets, I throughly provide clean, fresh water, food, affection, ensure clean bedding, (extra fee for washing if required) short walks and minor play, check everything is in order and health status and mood is excellent. My priority is the fur puppies, fur children, fur adults and fur elders are happy, content, safe, healthy physically, mentally and emotionally prior to departure until I return to them as often as requested and required. It would be my pleasure to assist in the your pets welfare so you can rest at ease until you've returned home to their loving licks. Available Mon-Sun, (Varies upon booking) Holidays: Please book two weeks in advance Last minute sittings, walks, check-in available based on booking schedule. Additional small charge may apply due upon request. My schedule is flexible since I drive for Doordash and Grubhub on my free time. I am available for all days for your booking needs. Pets welfare is essential in their known environment and adherence to the normal life structure set by the owner. I currently do not offer any boarding services.

About: I’ve always lived with an animal and enjoy taking care and playing with pets. Growing up, I assisted with caretaking for our 3 dogs and I currently own a cat, Stella, who is my baby. I’m currently a grad student at Tarleton with mostly online classes so I have plenty of time to play and care for your pet! I only have classes on Monday and Tuesday and they only last 4 hours each so I have a flexible schedule! I have a sweet cat and we live in a tiny home right outside of Stephenville. I own plenty of cat and dog toys, and have access to a small fenced yard for dogs.

About: I have had just about every pet while growing up.... shetland ponies, guinea pigs, rabbits, hamsters, chickens, horses, dogs, cats, pot belly pigs, turtles, ball python snakes, cows, ferrets, rats, turtles and goats. I work full time 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. so I am available evenings, weekends, lunch hour and holidays. And I have two Fridays out of the month that I am off I am able to walk dogs or let them out into the owners yard. I am able to feed all animals you have. I am able to change bedding for caged animals I work 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. and would be available after that for drop in service.... let your dog out or for a walk, this drop in visit would also include feeding your dog or cat their dinner. While in my care I believe in keeping the animals routine as close to normal as possible. I will keep them fresh water and food, if bedding needs changed or a stall needs cleaned out. I feel that my experience with a variety of animals, allows me to notice what needs to be done to make sure your animal is safe and happy.

I physically can’t say enough about how INCREDIBLE of a job Jennifer did with our pup. She was soooo easy to get ahold of and always in communication with us. She’s the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. Our girl, Cactus, absolutely loved her, and we will absolutely be repeat clients. She even bought our little girl a toy, and trimmed her nails. Absolutely incredible in every way. If you’re looking for a sitter/boarding/Walker/anything, don’t hesitate. ?

About: I have had animals in my home my entire life, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and turtles, which has given me strong experience in animal care and responsibility. In high school, I participated in FFA and showed goats, pigs, and rabbits, where I learned the importance of proper care and handling for a variety of animals. Currently, I own a one-year-old Great Pyrenees that I have raised since he was twelve weeks old, making me comfortable with puppy training. I also work at a dog boarding and daycare facility, where I follow detailed feeding schedules, monitor animal behavior, and administer medications to dogs, including seniors. I am currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to take proper care and play with your furry friends. On a weekly basis i can manage feeding, walking, playing, and even baths if needed. I am a student currently, but my classes are only about an house long with gaps in between. This allows me to have a very flexible schedule for walks and bathromm breaks. I have a fenced yard and another dog for your pup to play with. I also life in a very safe neighborhood with lots of people who walk their dogs all hours of the day. I am comfortable crating mine and/or your animals if needed and for leaving the house.

About: I’ve owned all sorts of animals all my life, everything from donkeys to ferrets, cats and dogs are a breeze, even the most difficult of characters are easy for me. I’m a full time college student and working as much as I can, im not free certain days of the week/weekend, but I love to pick up last minute sits and help out where I can. I have a very large field and park in my backyard, while it’s not fenced in as long as I’m provided with a well fitted leash/harness I’ll take them out as much as they’d like. For cats, I have multiple cat trees and litter boxes, as well as toys and furniture for lounging

About: I am a dog loving patient person who enjoys long walks. I have volunteered with the SPCA and have been around teacup Chihuahuas to big and active dogs such as Shepherds, Great Danes, and high energy Greyhounds and Catahoulas. I have owned and taken care of several big dogs most of my life to include: a Shepherd, Black Labs, a couple Dachshunds and a full-blooded Catahoula; so I understand the rigours of the exercise that they need. I am available almost anytime, except for the hours of church. Give me a shout and if you would prefer to meet me before entrusting your faithful companion or baby to my care, I would be happy to meet up with you and rover to see how we click.

About: As an Animal Science major with a pre-vet focus, animals have always been at the center of my life. I am currently a Certified Veterinary Assistant, which means I understand pet behavior, health, and safety on a deeper level. Whether it’s playing with high energy puppies, giving extra love to senior pets, or sticking to a specific routine, I always treat animals like my own. I’m calm, reliable, and detail oriented. Someone you can trust to keep your pet happy, healthy, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m a college student, but pet care easily fits into my weekly routine. I have a flexible class schedule and plenty of free time, especially on weekends. I ensure to give pets the time, attention, and care they deserve. Spending time with animals is one of my favorite parts of the week! Whether I’m staying overnight, doing check-ins, walking, or boarding, I always treat pets like family. In your home, I stick closely to their normal routine to keep them comfortable and relaxed. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and care. For boarding at my place, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment where pets can feel at home. No matter the service, their wellbeing, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities

About: I’ve grown up around animals and now care for my own cats, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities—whether they’re super social, a little shy, or full-on chaotic. I’m patient and calm, which helps a lot when pets are adjusting to a new person or environment. I’m good at picking up on behavior changes and routines quickly, so I make sure pets feel as close to “normal life” as possible while their owners are away. I also have experience with basic training habits like litter consistency, reinforcing routines, and helping nervous pets settle in. What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m very attentive to detail, I don’t rush interactions, and I actually enjoy spending quiet time just letting pets warm up at their own pace. I also understand how important communication is, so I always keep owners updated and comfortable while they’re away. Pet care fits into my routine alongside my full-time job. I work Monday through Thursday from 6:00 AM to 5:30 PM, so those days I’m available for early morning check-ins and evening visits after work. I make sure any pets I’m caring for still get consistent attention, feeding, and litter care even on my workdays. On Fridays, weekends, and any time I’m off, I have a lot more flexibility and can do longer visits, more frequent check-ins, or spend extra time with pets if needed. I’m very used to balancing a structured schedule, so I plan ahead and stay consistent with care routines. Since I’m already a cat owner, daily pet care is part of my normal life anyway, so adding Rover visits feels natural and easy to manage responsibly. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect and responsibility as my own. I follow your instructions closely so your pet can stay on their normal routine as much as possible—feeding times, litter box care, medications if needed, and any specific habits or preferences they’re used to. On my workdays (Monday–Thursday), I do check-in visits, usually mornings and evenings. I make sure pets are fed, have fresh water, litter boxes are clean, and they’re doing okay overall. I also take time to give them attention so they don’t feel rushed or lonely. On weekends, I offer in-home sitting and overnight stays. This allows me to spend more consistent time with your pet, keep their routine steady, and provide comfort and companionship throughout the night. I make sure the home stays clean, calm, and secure while you’re away. I understand how important trust is when someone is in your home, so I’m very respectful, careful, and communicative. I always provide updates so you feel reassured and know your pet is safe and cared for.

FAQs for House Sitting - Tolar

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of June 2026, there are 180 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Tolar. 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 Tolar 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 Tolar 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 Tolar 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 Tolar. On Rover:

  • 92% 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.
