“Kenya was great. Quick replies when we texted her. She took wonderful care of our pets. Plus the house was clean and looked just as it did when we left for vacation. We will definitely rebook with Kenya in the future!”
“I was so impressed with Amalia's attention to detail and compassion for my baby, Fitty (my cat-son). Amalia made me feel so comfortable so I could really enjoy myself away. Thanks so much Amalia, you did a great job and I will be hiring you again!”
“Dawn was awesome with our two pups! I felt really good about being away from them because she was so loving at the Meet and Greet before we left. She kept us updated while we were gone and sent pictures. I would highly recommend.”
“I would highly, highly recommend Kristie! She did such an amazing job with our dog Josie, who had just lost her sister a few days before we went away. Kristie made sure that Josie was comforted and had all the extra love and care so she didn't feel lonely. We also received daily pictures and updates so we knew Josie was well taken care of. Having lost a dog before we left, we were uneasy about leaving Josie behind. But Kristie made us feel 100% like Josie was in the best hands and we knew she genuinely cared for her like she was her own. That was very meaningful to us. And, when we returned home, Kristie left a very thoughtful gift for us, which was a plant in memory of the dog we had just lost. I can't say how much that meant to us. Again, highly, highly recommend Kristie!”
“Olivia was good with the dogs, and Waylon seemed to have a lot of fun with Espi. She was very communicative and left the house clean. We will definitely reach out next time we need a sitter.”
“Loved Kristin! She is very aware of the house surroundings that make my dogs feel comfortable. I love that Kristin had bed time with my Cavapoo dog that sleeps with me! I will advocate and trust Kristin with anyone’s dogs. She is very attentive, she communicated via text quick, and absolutely affectionate to my dogs. Thank you Kristin!”
“If you want someone that genuinely cares and is willing to go the extra mile to ensure your pets comfort, she's the one! HUGE paws up!!! 🐾🐾Highly recommended by both us and our fur babies! Ava took fantastic care of our dogs and house during our 10 day trip. We have a timid rescue pittie, so Ava met with her well before our trip and arrived early day of to ensure our girl would feel comfortable while we were gone. 💙 Our house was in better condition than when we left. She even washed, remade the bed, and took out the trash before we arrived home. We will 100% be booking Ava for all our future pet sitting needs!”
“Kathleen was a good dog and house-sitter. She quickly responded to texts to update us on how the dogs were and all was in order upon our return, except that she closed the doggy door.”
“Amanda was the absolute best! We booked her on such short notice and she took care of our fur babies while we were gone! She sent us daily pictures of the dogs. We would definitely use Amanda again in the future.”
“Kaitlyn is amazing. We had a short notice trip come up, and she was able to make time to come meet our 2 pups. They were cared for, and loved on and barely noticed we were missing :) WIll definitely have Kaitlyn back again.”
About: I have cared for dogs for 25 years, labradors primarily but also small dogs. We currently have a 1 1/2 year old black lab and also a 10 year old Beeshon Poodle. A fully fenced yard and 2 adults that work from home are typically always present. I am a real estate agent so I am home most days. I have 2 dogs so I am dialed into taking care of them on a daily basis. We have a fully fenced back yard, also we are within walking distance to a city park for afternoon walks. I am able to care for your dog without you having to worry at all.
About: I’ve been a dog mom for 7 years. I have 2 fur babies: Roxy and Daisy. I love dogs with every fiber of my being! My girls and I always do something together: we love walks, hikes in the nature and daily obedience training. I am also a very active individual so I can assure you that your fur baby will be exercised and mentally stimulated on my watch. I believe in the importance of mental enrichment as well as daily physical activity for all dogs no matter their age and breed. It’s important to meet your dog’s needs on a daily basis. My older dog Roxy is also a senior dog so I understand how vital it is to accommodate her needs while still ensuring she gets an adequate amount of activity and rest. I can teach your dog basic commands and fun tricks as well as do mental enrichment games and puzzles. I currently work part-time: I offer in-home personal chef services to clients all over DFW area. I am able to set my own schedule and I have weekly as well as weekend availability to care for dogs. I’m willing to care for your fur baby in your home. I’m very flexible and will do my best to accommodate your unique needs and requests. I’m also married so when I’m away I know that my husband will take care of our dogs.
“We had a great experience with Sara! She took wonderful care of Teddy, Mia, and Boba and kept us at ease with daily updates and photos. It meant so much to see how happy and well cared for they were. We’d absolutely book again!”
“Chris was awesome. She took wonderful care of our animals and home while we were out of town. She kept us posted with updates and pictures and our cat and dog had a great time with her. I would 100% recommend Chris for animal and house sitting needs.”
“Brandon has watched my dogs a few times now and he does a great job! He really cares about the dogs, provides plenty of pictures and calls me if he has questions or thinks anything might be wrong. When I need a dog sitter my first call is to Brandon.”
“Nakia was absolutely wonderful with Luna! 🐾 Luna can be quite the sassy little Cockapoo and Nakia handled her with so much patience and love. She was communicative throughout the whole weekend and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. You could tell she genuinely cared about Luna’s wellbeing and not just going through the motions. I came home to a happy and well looked after pup which is all you can ask for! I will definitely be booking Nakia again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”

Devyn was so good with our crazy Goldendoodle, Cooper. He doesn’t have the best manners when people come over (he likes to jump on everyone) and she handled that so well. Cooper recently lost his fur sibling and is use to his regular sitter, but Devyn made him so comfortable and he was very happy to see her when she came back to watch him (we did a meet and greet) She is so incredibly sweet and can be trusted to care for your pet/s.
A'Lauren did a fantastic job caring for Bodie and Peyton! She was very communicative, provided regular updates and photos, and it was clear she spent quality time with them. We felt comfortable knowing they were in good hands while we were away. We would absolutely book with A'Lauren again and highly recommend her to others.
In addition to the standard screening visit, Skylar came by a few days before we left to get reacquainted, which we really appreciated given our dog’s anxiety. During the stay, she communicated well, sent regular pictures and updates and left the house in perfect condition with a detailed note about the status of various household items.

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 Wylie 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 Wylie 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 Wylie 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!

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 .

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.
