Armani was fabulous!!! She helped us out very last minute when we were in a bind, sent great updates with pictures and took care of our baby when she had an accident. We definitely recommend Armani and plan on rebooking in the future!

I had a great experience with Amanda! She was kind, attentive, and very understanding of my dog’s quirks. It’s always nerve-wracking to leave your pet with someone new, but she made the whole process easy and stress-free. My dog can be a little unpredictable, especially in new situations, and she handled everything with such calm and care. I really appreciated her communication and the updates she sent while I was away. I would absolutely recommend her!

About: Hi, I’m Alexia! (: I’m a passionate animal lover dedicated to providing a safe, loving, and stress free home away from home for your pets. I understand that leaving your fur babies with someone new can be difficult, so I treat every pet in my care like they’re my own! Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities. I’m here to make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have over 10 years of experience caring for and working with both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I have experience with basic training, administering lots of patience and love, and making pets feel safe and comfortable. ☺️ I’ve also helped foster pregnant female animals and cared for newborn litters, so I understand the extra attention, gentleness, and responsibility that some pets may need. Your pets will be treated like family in my care, and I’m happy to provide updates, photos, playtime, walks, and plenty of affection to keep you at ease while you’re away! 🐾 I work from home so I am actively able to provide daily outside playtime and potty time during the day and some much needed sun bathes for the sun bathers. I am able to provide a good feed schedule as well treat times! It is a pleasure to be able to work from home and effectively care to the needs of each furbaby! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, I understand how important it is to have someone you can truly trust with your furry family members!❤️ I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away.

About: New to Rover but not to loving pets😊 I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important it is for owners to feel comfortable while they’re away. I provide regular updates, photos, and quick responses so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I take the time to learn their individual needs and personality. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to details, and I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes, energy levels, and ages. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. ***Available for house sitting throughout Waxahachie, Midlothian, Mansfield, Arlington, and the Dallas area. I’m a proud Army Veteran that works from home. My schedule is flexible. So, plenty of time for bonding and cuddles with your fur baby! I have a huge gated backyard for your fur baby(s) to stretch. I also have a sweet doodle that loves to play as well! Let the fun begin!

About: Ive had experience owning and caring for mainly dogs since early childhood. I was also the "neighborhood dog walker" for years as a teen. Ive always been relied on as the "pet person" in my family in regards to care, feeding and grooming. I have some experience working at a kennel, as well as 2 pet stores. Ive owned dogs for as long as I can remember, Ive also had my fair share of cats. Multiple animals Ive owned have had disabilities or heavy medication requirements. It would be a pleasure to watch over your critters :) (even some exotics like birds, reptiles and rodents) Im currently looking for some type of part-time job, but in the meantime, my schedule is VERY open. Ill soon be moving but ill still continue sitting! Pet sitting is my main and favorite gig of all time. Ill be moving back to my apartment with less animals but I currently have 6 dogs in my family. Im in charge of bathing, nails, teeth, feeding, and bathroom pickup. If meds are required Im usually the one to administer those as well. (Ive even got my own exotic animals) I usually watch animals in the clients home as I have 2 dogs and a cat of my own, sometimes that can be problematic depending on the clients animal. Ill live in an apartment with a fenced yard and a dog park. Id prefer to be a walker or an in-home sitter. Ive got lots of experience and trust in both. Id have to make some serious adjustments to have a new animal in my home.

Ty did a fantastic job taking care of our anxious pups! He provided photos/video updates daily and we could see how happy our dogs were. Not only did he provide loving care with walks, playtime, and cuddles; but he also did personal training sessions with our dogs as well to help improve their behavior. He is professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and experienced. We will definitely book with Ty again!

About: Hi. I'm a born caregiver and that includes pets. Until their passing recently, I was my housemates dog walker, caregiver, sitter and dog uncle since 2010. While they were her dogs she routinely joked she was jealous they were far more affectionate with me. :) They were fed regularly, walked, played with, I put proper meds in their food, and often they fall asleep next to me. I also was my friends first choice for dog sitting and even pet sit for a CEO and SVP. In this job, you're not doing this to get rich, you do this because you CARE for animals. Because I cannot have pets where I live at, this allows me to be around pets to enjoy their company as pets have a way of making me smile and enjoy life even a bit more. I will treat your pet as my own and send you lots of pics and updates so you know your furry family member is cared for like you would. I currently work as a video/film editor as well as animation and music production so doing this PT allows me to continue that dream while getting exercise and being around pets as I cannot really have them at my place. I listen to your directions and will treat your pet with the same care and love I would want with a pet if I had one. While others say one thing and do another, you really can trust that I'm honest, loving, caring. I can also help medicate if I'm placing meds inside their foods.

Amber was absolutely fantastic! She took care of our dogs and cat while also house sitting, and the entire experience was incredibly smooth and stress-free. She kept us updated daily with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. When we returned, our home was spotless, and our pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s not always easy to leave your pets behind, but Amber made it effortless. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!

We were so grateful for Ellie's exceptional care of our two babies while we were away. She provided them with attentive and loving attention, ensuring they were happy and well-looked after. It was a great comfort to know our furry family members were in such capable hands. We truly appreciated her dedication, communication and the peace of mind she offered us while we were out of town. We highly recommend her services to anyone seeking a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. Sincerely, M.Tapp

FAQs for House Sitting - Waxahachie

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Waxahachie on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 2,191 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Waxahachie. 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 Waxahachie 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 Waxahachie 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 Waxahachie 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 Waxahachie. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
