“Bonny was kind enough to sit at the last minute when a family member bailed on me. She took such good care of my 11 year old Bassett Hound, Rufus, while I attended a long birthday party. Rufus has separation anxiety since COVID when I retired so I try not to leave him alone for more than an hour. He was so happy to lay on the coach with Bonny snuggling and rubbing him. She was at his command all night and I am so thankful that I didn’t have to return to an anxious mess. I will definitely use Bonny again in the future.”
“Rhonda took great care of our pets while we were on vacation. She was dependable, communicated well, and made the whole experience stress-free. We appreciated the updates and would happily have her pet sit for us again.”
“Courtney took great care of my 3yo dog and my house for a whole week! Goldie is an anxious rescue but when we did a meet and greet she was so calm with Courtney that I felt really comfortable leaving them together. Anxiety is her only special need but Courtney was ready, willing, and able to discuss any meds or other care needs when we met in person.”
“Haley is the best sitter we have had! She takes the time to meet and understand your dogs’ needs first. I really appreciate all the updates she provides-videos, photos and messages so you know what is going on with your babies. She is extremely kind to my dogs and communicates very well. Highly recommend!”
“Latisha was amazing! She took great care of our dogs and even found a leak in the house that would have flooded the whole place if she hadn’t caught it. She went above and beyond to coordinate with the landlord and plumber, and came back multiple times to make sure the dogs were okay during her work day. Highly recommend”
“Hailey was really great!! She was very calm with the dogs and very dependable. She stayed in our house with our 2 dogs, and it was obvious the dogs liked her. She also left the house spotless!”
“Lynnsee was great! She came for a meet and greet a few days before and hit it off right away with our three Great Danes. She was prompt, sent lots of adorable pics, followed our care/feeding/medicine requests and left the house spotless as a bonus! The pups had a great time and were in fantastic condition when we got home. We’ll definitely use Lynnsee again!”
About: I love being around dogs and I want to help busy people give their dogs the love they deserve! I have years of experience caring for neighbors’ and friends’ animals and I spent time volunteering at the SPCA as a dog walker. I grew up around dogs and currently have a 10 year old golden retriever named Rio! I’m currently a dental student in Dallas, so I’m available mornings and evenings during the week and most weekends. Happy to work around your pet’s schedule! I am willing to accommodate and provide for the needs of your animal. I can provide walks, potty breaks, feedings, and playtime as needed. My goal is to make your dog feel at home and keep them in their routine as best as possible.
“I booked Lauren last minute after my other sitter canceled on me just a few days before my trip. She was super attentive when we meet and took notes on all of Milo’s needs. When I got back my house was just as I left it and Milo was a happy boy, so I’m sure he enjoyed himself. I will definitely be booking again!!”
About: I grew up with cats and dogs in the family. I have experience with senior dog care and administering medications. I also have some experience with younger dogs and potty training. I'm currently in graduate school earning my master's degree in speech language pathology. I go to school online so I have lots of flexibility in my routine to make room for your pets. I live in an apartment so I am unable to board pets at my residence. I am able to stay in the pet's home if needed.
“We love Matthew and our 2 sweet labs were very spoiled. They were really comfortable and Matthew did a wonderful job taking care of them and giving them the attention they needed.”
“Chelsea was amazing! She took care of our three dogs and the house. We’ve used rover a couple of times and there was always something with the others, but Chelsea was amazing. She was attentive and communicated with us and sent pictures. Will definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all kinds since I was 10. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets. I’m a chiropractic student at Parker University and am responsible, patient, and attentive. I treat every pet like they’re my own! I’m a full-time student at Parker University, usually finished with classes by 4 PM. I’m available most weekends and have some weekday availability, including Mondays when I only have one morning class. I’m flexible and happy to work around your pet’s routine! I treat every pet with patience, care, and attention. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, keep pets safe and comfortable, and make sure they get plenty of playtime, attention, and love. I’ll also keep your home clean and treat it with the same respect I would my own.
About: I own a dog myself and so Ive learned to crate and potty train her. As much as I love her I do understand every dog needs to learn respect to others. I am currently working full time with a set schedule for a while and it does change from time to time. But i do work 3-11pm 4 days and Sunday i work 7am-3pm. My dog is crate trained, so if needed she can be put away. I do have a spacious apartment, my cat tends to be shy around others. So he would run off, but as mentioned before with my dog, my cat can be out away also.
“Kayla was amazing! This was my first time to have anyone watch my pets and she made sure to take great care of them and sent pictures everyday. I appreciated all the attention she gave them!”

“We decided to use Rover for our little one 'baby" because we were heading out on a 7 day cruise and needed a sitter for 9 days. We found Britney on Rover and she absolutely over exceeded our expectations! From the first day we did the meet and greet, she was so caring, loving, respectful and professional! As we flew to and from Orlando and cruised for 7 days, Britney never missed a beat. Britney actually drove all the way from work in Downtown Dallas to give our "baby" her 1pm snack! She kept everything clean, followed all the rules and even worked from home some days to just keep "baby" company. She sent us pics and reports daily. We felt super comfortable leaving Britney in our home the entire time. We truly found a God sent dog sitter and also just a really warm and wonderful person. We will be using her services again!”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brittany was fantastic! I couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter. Brittany took great care of my dogs while I was away, followed all of my instructions, and was great with the little extras, like walking Javi and helping out around the house. She was easy to communicate with and reliable, and I came home to happy, well cared dogs. I'd recommend her without hesitation and will definitely book her again.
Barbara, as always, was the absolute best! Not only does she make Toby feel so loved and make us feel completely comfortable whenever we leave him and travel, but she is also such a wonderful house guest. She always keeps everything so clean and tidy and even washes the sheets before we get home. We just love Barbara so much and feel so lucky to have someone we trust completely with Toby and our home!
Alice was an amazing dog sitter who took care of them and was exceptionally well. I handling their every needs we were unfortunately unable to meet Alice but given how communicative she was I doubt it would’ve been even been necessary and I would absolutely 100% recommend anyone who needs a dog sitter to book her . Thank you again Alice for everything. We will be sure to use you again if we ever need another dog sitter!
Matthew was AWESOME. He took great care of our dog and cat while we were away for two weeks. He was constantly sending us updates and was extremely accessible if we had any questions or concerns. We’re booking him for our next trip now and will use him every time we travel if he’s available. M.F.
Maria was great. She dog sit our two dogs for 11 days for the first time and she was wonderful. She came to our house twice before our trip to meet the dogs and interact with them. The dogs were very well taken care of while we were gone and we came back to a clean and well taken care of house. Her communication was excellent and she sent us pictures of the dogs daily. We are very grateful for her commitment to care for our dogs and would definitely leave our dogs with her anytime.
Christy is great! She was super sweet to Graham and very attentive-even flagging that he was itching his ear more than usual while we were gone and able to help administer meds. Our house was also left super clean! We would love to have her watch Graham again!
Jasmine was wonderful with our pets during her stay from July 19–22. She was kind, dependable, and made us feel comfortable leaving our pets in her care. She stayed overnight in our home, which gave us peace of mind knowing they had companionship and were not left alone. She communicated with us daily and sent thoughtful photo updates, so we could see that everyone was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We truly appreciated her care and communication and would gladly book Jasmine again.
Nicole was such a gem to watch our three high needs dogs! She was so good with our old man, our Velcro dog, and our Pitbull that is scared of her own shadow. They are not an easy crew as they all require a lot of attention, but she cared for them as if they were her own which made me feel calm and confident to leave my babies with her! She kept us up to date with many photos and left our home clean. Would 10000% hire her again!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 White Rock 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 White Rock 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 White Rock 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
