“Anna is amazing! We booked her for a long house sitting service and she went above and beyond, making sure our dogs were taken care of, got their medication and kept us updated with pictures and videos of our two dogs and made sure we came home to a clean house. She’s definitely an ideal sitter”

About: I have had cats as pets my whole life and dogs as an adult. I have been pet sitting for about 6 years to dogs from puppies to seniors. Times have ranged from weekends to a month. I started fostering kittens when covid hit. I have found joy in caring for animals with all their different personalities. I have become experienced in all things kittens : bottle feeding , tube feeding administering medicine (my neighbor will even call me to give her pets pills) flea baths ringworm baths, brushing teeth you name it . I have even had to help kittens cross the rainbow bridge. It has been bitter sweet , but the love they give is more then enough. All animals deserve the best treatment and love we can give them I have been in education for 34 years teaching art and an administrator for the Fine Arts Department. I am retired now and have a lot of free time to spend with my favorite animals. I have found pet sitting and fostering to be very rewarding and someday would like to start my own fostering service. I have recently started rehabbing opossums, which is quite fun and much different than our tamer than our average 4 legged friends My job is flexible enough that i can leave for lunch and take care of your pets in the middle of the day as well. I have three cats that have been around lots of dog and cat “visitors” . Fostering cats has helped, … oh here comes another friend

About: I have 15+ years of experience with dogs of every shape and size. Between caring for my own dogs, my family’s, and friend’s, I’ve come to be very familiar with their routines, needs, and behavior. My experience with applied behavior analysis lends tremendously to successful training techniques. I take pride in maintaining clean environments, administering meds, and being undeterred by big dogs. My experience as a nanny gives me a unique understanding of working in your most private space. Special instructions are always followed with care and love. I am currently starting my new job as a water safety instructor! My availability may change while I am in training, but I am still open for drop-ins and walks. Unfortunately, due to the needs of my own rescue cat, I am not available to provide overnight boarding services in my residence at this time.

About: Experienced dog sitting all size dogs! Pitbulls, waimeraners, labs, wiener dogs etc. I love to go on walks and runs if possible! This past summer I consistently watched 4 dogs (from the same family) and had a great time! I frequently volunteer at the animal shelter but don’t have any pets of my own just yet! New to Fort Worth and looking forward to meeting you and your dog:) As of right now I am helping out at my boyfriends business but working from home- meaning I am available all day to take care of your pet whether at my home or coming to you. I live in a dog friendly apartment building along the trinity trails! These trails are perfect for dog walking and provide ample shade. The dog is welcome in all rooms of our place. At a clients home, I make sure to go over any guidelines with the owner to establish the rules and routines of their space- I only aim to help out never to impose!

About: Welcome! If you are looking for a calm, stress-free, 1-on-1 environment for your pet, you have come to the right place. As a veterinarian’s daughter and a full-time professional pet sitter with over 100 5-star reviews, providing attentive, top-tier care tailored to your pet's personality and energy level is my passion. I host only one client family’s pets at a time, ensuring your fur baby receives undivided attention, customized care, and total safety. 🐾Why Choose My Care? 1-on-1 Exclusive Attention: Your pet will never compete with outside animals for love, space, or care. 🐾Veterinary Background: My dad was a veterinarian and I am fully confident administering oral medications, managing special diets, and providing calm care for senior or special-needs pets. 🐾Full-Day Presence: Pet care is my full-time focus. Your pet enjoys constant companionship, frequent potty breaks, and structured daily routines. 🐾Tailored Exercise & Backyard Fun: Guests enjoy endless play in my huge, fully fenced backyard. For dogs who love exploring, I am happy to offer trips to nearby parks for leashed walks. (Note: For safety, park walks are reserved for dogs who are fully leash-trained and do not pull heavily. Strong pullers will still get plenty of great exercise in the secure yard!) 🐾Prepared & Accommodating: I provide a clean kennel and dog bed on-site for convenience so you have less to pack, though you are always welcome to bring your own. 🐾Clear Communication: Expect regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and truly spoiled. 🐾Safety & Household Notes Children: Children are listed on my profile because my grandchildren visit occasionally, though they do not live here. If your dog prefers an adult-only environment, I will coordinate schedules so no children are present during their stay. 🐾Meet & Greets: I strongly encourage a quick Meet & Greet prior to booking so everyone feels completely confident and comfortable. ❤️In Hawaiian, a pet caretaker is called a Kahu—a guardian, protector, and steward of something cherished. I take that role to heart and treat every guest like my own. Whether hosting in my home or house-sitting in yours, I look forward to giving your pet a safe, loving home away from home! Full-Time Care & Companionship 🐾 Now that I am retired, pet care is my full-time focus! Your fur baby will enjoy plenty of relaxed companionship, frequent potty breaks, and a consistent daily routine. Your pet will receive endless love, attention, and playtime. They'll have access to a huge, fully fenced backyard, plus trips to nearby parks for walks. I also send regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and truly spoiled! Experienced & Trusted!! 🐾 Veterinarian’s Daughter: Expert animal care practices built into my daily routine. 🐾 40+ Years of Experience: Decades of dedicated, hands-on care for pets of all ages and temperaments. 🐾 Fort Worth’s Trusted Nanny: Over 100 5-star reviews and a track record of happy, repeat clients. 🐾 Exclusive Single-Family Stays: I accept only one client family at a time for maximum safety and full attentiveness. 🐾 Senior & Special Needs Care: Highly experienced with aging dogs, complex medical conditions, and mobility needs. 🐾 Medication & Safety: Fully trained in administering oral and injected medications, plus Pet First Aid & CPR certified. A 5-Star VIP Experience!!! 🐾 Tail-Wagging Activities: Daily walks in the park (if requested), active backyard games, basic command reinforcement, and brain-boosting activities like treat puzzles and sniff mats. 🐾 Impromptu Photo Shoots: As a prior professional photographer, I love capturing gorgeous, candid pictures of your fur baby throughout their stay! 🐾 Seamless Communication: Prompt text updates and frame-worthy daily photos so you can enjoy total peace of mind while away. 🐾 Spoiled-Rotten Comfort: Endless belly rubs, soothing ear scratches, couch cuddles, and focused, gentle attention from morning to night. I follow all care instructions, administration of medicine schedules and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while doing my best to stay on their schedule at home that they are used to. My grandchildren sometimes visit to give extra love, but if your dog doesn’t get along with children, they won’t be present. 🐾 Flea & Tick Prevention: For the health, comfort, and safety of all pets staying in my home, I kindly ask that pets be current on flea and tick prevention prior to their stay. I work hard to maintain a clean, flea- and tick-free environment, and this helps protect your pet as well as the other pets in my care. Thank you for helping me keep my home comfortable and safe for everyone! 💕 Certified in CPR & Pet First Aid (08/2025) with verification badges in my photo gallery. I love building long-term relationships so your fur baby looks forward to coming back! For your convenience, I have a kennel available at my home if your pup is crate-trained or enjoys having a cozy space to relax. You’re welcome to use mine, so there’s no need to bring one back and forth unless you prefer to.

Annika did a wonderful job watching our two cats, two dogs, and kitten while we were away for five days. Our household can be a bit chaotic with that many animals, but she handled everything beautifully and went well beyond what we expected. We received updates multiple times a day, and when we returned, the house was in exactly the same condition we’d left it. She even took the time to wash the towels and sheets she’d used, something we hadn’t asked or expected her to do. One of the nicest surprises was finding the personalized notes she’d left about each of our animals, describing their personalities, little quirks, and how they’d behaved while we were gone. It was genuinely a treat to read through them, and such a thoughtful way to wrap up our trip. It’s clear Annika takes pride in what she does. We came home to happy animals, a spotless house, and the feeling that everything had been in good hands. We’d absolutely trust her to look after our home and pets again, and can’t recommend her enough.

I cannot recommend Miranda enough! This was my very first time using a house sitter, so I was naturally nervous about leaving my two Mini Australian Shepherds, Luna and Ozzy, for an entire week. From the very first meet-and-greet, Miranda was incredibly patient and kind. Luna is very reactive and usually barks at strangers, but after that first meeting she completely trusted Miranda, which says so much about the way she connects with dogs. Throughout the week, Miranda went above and beyond in every possible way. She took Luna and Ozzy on two walks every day, gave them endless cuddles and playtime, and even remembered that I mentioned Luna loves bubbles. She surprised her by bringing her own bubbles just so they could play together, and she also brought treats for both of my babies. It was such a thoughtful gesture that truly showed how much she cared. One thing that really stood out was how knowledgeable she is about dog behavior. She taught me techniques to help redirect Luna’s reactive barking, and I already know those tips will make a huge difference for us moving forward. During one of their walks, two unleashed dogs ran toward Luna and Ozzy in what could have been a very dangerous situation. Miranda immediately stepped in, putting herself between my dogs and the other dogs to protect them. Thanks to her quick thinking and calm response, Luna and Ozzy came home without a single scratch. She called me immediately afterward, explained exactly what had happened, and kept me informed every step of the way. Knowing she handled such a stressful situation with such professionalism and care gave me incredible peace of mind. Every single day I received detailed updates, along with plenty of pictures and videos, so I always knew how my babies were doing. She also treated my home with the utmost respect, keeping everything clean and taking wonderful care of it while I was away. Miranda didn’t just care for my dogs—she loved them as if they were her own. She even slept with them every night to make them feel safe and comfortable. That level of compassion is something you simply can’t teach. I honestly feel like I found my forever dog sitter. I have absolutely no plans to look for anyone else. Miranda has earned not only my trust, but also Luna’s and Ozzy’s, and that means everything to me. Thank you, Miranda, for caring for my babies with so much love, for handling every situation with such a positive attitude, and for giving me complete peace of mind while I was away. We are beyond grateful for you!

They sent us frequent updates and pictures over the 14+ days that we were away from our house. When we got home our house was cleaner than we had left it for them. Being new to the area were were very leary of finding someone trustworthy and reliabel to stay in our home with our pets. We are very releived to have found wonderful people who took great care of our animals and our home. Thank you both very much!

Look no further! Erin is your girl! Not only is she sweet and friendly, but she is a great communicator. She listened to every single word we said/wrote, asking questions along the way. This the first time we ever left these doggies and we were as anxious as they were. When we returned home, they were ecstatic to see us, but not upset. Erin had obviously loved on them and comforted them. Thank you, Erin! You can trust her!

FAQs for House Sitting - Westover Hills

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Westover Hills is $53 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $83 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 2,849 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Westover Hills. 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 Westover Hills 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 Westover Hills 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 Westover Hills 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 , 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 .

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
