“Michelle did well with staying a few nights. House was in good shape as when we left. Our dog seems to have been taken well care of and happy. I received pictures daily, which I enjoyed!”
“Connor did a wonderful job house- and pet-sitting for us for last 10 days. He cared for our dog and cat as if they were his own and tended to our small jungle of plants with great attention. We returned home to thriving greenery, happy fur babies, and even a freshly vacuumed house! We will definitely call on Connor again for any future trips that take us away.”
“Hi Rebecca, and thanks for the pic collages, I knew the kids were smitten with you immediately:). They are quite a pair for sure and you obviously spoiled them! You certainly made it easy and possible for us to concentrate on our family matters and we look forward to seeing you again soon. Thanks again, Rebecca, for doing such a great job!”
About: Hello! We're Shalee and Gabriel, a nomad couple who just bought a camper and are traveling around the country. We are skydivers so we typically will be staying near drop zones in different states. We're currently near Dallas Texas. I've been taking care of dogs for around 14 years. I work from home and my husband works part time so there is always someone home. I have one dog of my own, an Aussie named Liebe who is 11years old. We're so excited to meet you and your pups! I work from home so I'm able to provide lots of attention and day time walks. I'm also available to watch your pet overnight if needed. I can care for your pup in my own home or yours. We can make a plan depending on your pet. Some prefer to just chill and others more active.
“Tom is a gem and we were lucky to find him after our relocation to East Texas. We left our home knowing that our babies were in good hands. Tom was respectful of our property and we were very comfortable being away. It was a fantastic experience.”
About: Since childhood grown up loving and caring for cats, love the feeling of having them around me, gives me a sense of how much unconditional love they share so I make it a point to return back a part of it and making new cat friends and caring for them😻 I am a homemaker and at home most of the time except the for an hour in the afternoon to pick my daughter from school. We have a 18,000 sqft property and a home that’s spacious for the cats to play, roam and cozy around. We have Baro it’s spots at home for the cats to be cozy and sleep.
About: Hi, I’m Darleen! I’ve been around dogs and cats my entire life, and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. Growing up, my family always had pets, so I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. On top of that, I’ve worked in caregiving for people and while doing that, I also helped care for my clients’ pets. That meant feeding, walking, cleaning up messes, giving meds when needed, and just making sure their animals felt safe and loved while their owners were away or nearby just needing extra assistance for their fur babies. So being patient, dependable, and detail-oriented is already second nature to me. I’m great with energetic dogs who need real playtime, shy or anxious pets who need reassurance, and older animals who need a gentler touch. I myself had a Chihuahua since childhood live to be 18 years old. She passed away a couple of years ago, so I know how it is to love and cherish them and watch your baby go through all the stages of life. That being said, I follow routines closely, respect your home, and I’ll always send photo updates so you know how your pet is doing. I truly treat pets like family and see them no other way. If you’re looking for someone reliable who genuinely cares about your animals, I’d love to help. Feel free to reach out for a meet & greet :) I’m currently unavailable on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but can work with other needs on other days. At the moment pretty flexible just need communication, of course to work something out. I care for pets the same way I care for my own — with patience, attention, and respect for their routines. I currently have three cats and a really sweet husky at home, so I’m used to managing different personalities and energy levels. I’ve also cared for clients’ pets while working in human caregiving, which means I’m comfortable following instructions closely, giving meds if needed, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable. I can accommodate whatever kenneling or crate needs are required at the location care is taking place, as well as follow any potty routine your dog needs. I always respect your home, keep things tidy, and send photo updates so you know your pet is doing okay.
About: I have dogsat for around 3 years now both small dogs like mine and big australian shepards. I care for children as well. 💗 💗 I attend class 10-2 pm. So that gives me plenty of time for morning restroom breaks & check-ins, and im free afterwards (unless im babysitting) I would make sure to not disturb their peace but also make them feel love and give them all the necessary attention they may need.
“Amy did a wonderful job with our 2 dogs, and also took on some kittens I was fostering! She met with us and the dogs beforehand so they were familiar with her, and now consider her one of their best friends! House immaculate, mail brought in… highly recommend Amy.”
About: I’ve been passionate about animals since I was 5 years old. Rescued/Raised/Fostered 3 litters of kittens along with a few litters of foster puppies within the past 6 years. Also have 3 years of professional boarding experience & animal behavioral skills along with volunteering for the SPCA of Dallas! Currently work 6am-2:30pm full timeMonday-Friday so I can be available for evenings & weekends! My days off are Saturday & Sundays for pet sitting if needed. I’m also off on major holidays as well. I have a 4 bedroom 3 bathroom Single Home with a friendly, playful dog ready to keep your dogs company. I also have 4 indoor cats who are very sweet but like to stay out of the dogs away. I don’t have a fenced in yard, but live in the country so they have plenty of room to roam. I currently work 6am-2:30pm Monday-Fridays & have weekends off. So with that being said, I’d be a great fit for both boarding & sitting for your fur babies! Well though I don’t have a fenced in yard at the moment. I do live out in the country where they’ll have plenty of land to run around & play as they please. With new pets I normally stay outside with them in caution of assuring they don’t run off & I keep my pets inside to relax & sleep.
About: I have lived with cats for my whole life and absolutely adore taking care of them! I am highly experienced in taking care of cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities! As a recent high school graduate, I have plenty of free time to care for your kitties! Boarding at my home and housesitting at yours is available throughout the summer. Your kitties will stay in my cozy and relaxing bedroom! Because my family has a few cats of our own, your kitties will stay in my room to prevent any issues with the other cats.
“Morgan was a lifesaver and great! We were so worried about coverage and one pup. She put our anxiety to ease. She connected so well with the pups and gave updates via video and text. Would highly recommend her and will definitely continue hiring her for future needs!”
“Chris really gave me so much peace of mind knowing that he was at our house with our three rambunctious pups- all were pretty tuckered when I got home, and our home was left clean and tidy! Thank you so much Chris! I’m hoping that our pups get to meet in the future!!!”
“Louann took great care of our little guy, Max! She spent plenty of time with him in the morning and evening to hang out and give him the chance to eat and have potty breaks. Great job, Louann! ”
“Brittany is amazing! We didn’t think we could leave our dogs with anyone due to one of the larger one that barks at EVERY person. Brittany knows what she’s doing and had him calm. Her expertise and patience is amazing. We now look forward to planning trips and having the ability to relax knowing our pets are in great hands.”
“The boys absolutely LOVED her and I also got lots of comfort with cute videos and pictures of the boys! Scooby says 100/10 best play mate and Prince says 100/10 best snuggles! Thank you!!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Whitewright
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 553 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Whitewright. 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 Whitewright 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 Whitewright 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 Whitewright 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.

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.
