“Courtney was a wonderful dog sitter that we would recommend to anyone looking for the best care for their pets. Courtney went above and beyond to make sure our pets were safe and cared for and keeping constant communication throughout the week on how they were doing.”
“Hannah did a great job with our two pups while we were out of town. She gave our dogs the love and attention. Would 10 out of 10 recommend her! if we are ever go out of town, we would love for her to take care of our pups again.”
“Wendy was absolutely amazing. She made sure to send us daily updates so we knew our pets were happy. She ensured their safety when one tried to escape- and made sure to let us know immediately. I highly HIGHLY recommend Wendy- and will definitely request her the next time we have to leave our babies!”
“Thank you Kinsleigh for taking such great care of Teddy & Bear. You were so caring, took the time to send pics and left our house just as clean as when we left. We look forward to having you stay again!!! We highly recommend you as well!! Angela”

About: I’ve cared for dozens of dogs at once at SPCA Plano, from tiny to enormous, so I’m comfortable with whatever size of dog walks through your door. I’ve looked after Archie, a 9-month-old lab who was already giant and had no idea, and a huge pitbull who was a total sweetheart. I’ve also handled plenty of chihuahuas and other small dogs who have big opinions. Shelter team leads coached me on reading body language and handling nervous or excitable dogs, and I’ve been looking after friends’ pets ever since. I’m a running athlete, so I can keep up with high-energy pups on long walks, and I’m just as happy with a slow, sniffy stroll for seniors and shy dogs. Big or small, your dog gets calm, consistent care, clear updates, and plenty of photos. I’m currently studying animal behavior through ASPCA, and I’m always learning how to make pets more comfortable. Mondays, Tuesdays, and Sundays: Open all day. Thursdays: Available until the evening. Fridays: Available from 5pm . Saturdays: Available from 5 PM. Weekend trips? Message me your dates and I’ll confirm what I can do. I stick to your pet’s routine as closely as possible, because familiar feeds, walks, and bedtimes keep animals calm while you’re away. Before the first visit, I’ll ask about quirks, fears, and house rules, and I’ll follow your instructions for food, doors, and gates. I treat your home with respect and leave it just as tidy as I found it. My shelter training taught me to watch body language, spot when a pet is stressed or unwell, and stay calm in any situation. You’ll get regular photo updates, and if anything seems off, I’ll message you right away. I’m happy to do a meet and greet first so your pet and I can get comfortable with each other.
“Jayne is a awesome pet sitter. She is easy to adapt to changes and my dog loved her!! She left my house clean and sent me pictures of my puppy while I was away!! I will definitely use her again!!!”
About: Trusted pet sitter with 5 years’ experience. Services provided include, loving care, daily updates, walks, medication, and overnights. Calm with seniors, playful with puppies and cats. I recently retired, so I have plenty of time to walk, play with and care for your pets. I am available most days with notice. I have two dogs of my own, so I can crate dogs and walk them. My dogs are an 85 lb, chocolate lab named Tripp and a yorkiepoo named Roxy. I loved to cuddle with and love on pups and cats.
About: I have approximately five years of hands-on experience caring for animals through personal pet ownership, volunteering, and occasional pet sitting for friends and family while they are away on vacation. I have also volunteered at the Collin County Animal Shelter, where I work directly with dogs, helping provide care, attention, exercise, and socialization. Additionally, I have experience volunteering at a local horse ranch, where I have gained further experience working with and caring for horses. Through these experiences, I have developed a strong understanding of animal care, responsibility, patience, and the importance of providing animals with a safe, loving environment. I genuinely enjoy working with animals! My current schedule is fairly flexible. I work and attend school on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but I am generally available the rest of the week. This allows me plenty of time to dedicate to pet care, including feeding, walking, playing, and providing companionship. I am happy to work around the pet owner’s needs and schedule whenever possible. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every animal in my care. I understand how important it is for pet owners to feel confident leaving their pets and homes in someone else’s hands. I will follow all care instructions closely, maintain the pets’ normal routines, ensure they have fresh food and water, provide plenty of attention and exercise, and keep their environment clean and secure. I will also treat each owner’s home with the utmost respect, keeping everything tidy, securing doors and windows, and making sure their home and pets are well cared for. Communication is also important to me, and I am happy to provide regular updates and pictures so owners have peace of mind while they are away.
About: Hello! My name is DaiMone, I have grown up with dogs all my life. Caring for animals has been one of my motivations to becoming a licensed veterinary technician. I work at an animal clinic as a veterinary assistant.I have experience giving oral medication along with injections.Loving to all shapes and sizes of animals. Love to try to get to know your animal as much as possible. Consciences of your animals behavior and personality.I am very excited to help in any way that I can, and would love for you to reach out to me for assistance. I do have a full time job where I still would be able to come early in the mornings and evenings to visit with your pet. Always triple checking locks, always make sure you know where the pet is before you leave so you know had an actual visible sight on them.
“Tanya was INCREDIBLE. She dealt with me being a helicopter parent with absolute grace and poise. My home was left cleaner than what I had left and her and my pup was just as happy and healthy. Tanya brought her Bella over (with my okay) and the two gods played until kingdom come. This was my first time leaving my best friend with a “stranger” and after our meet and greet a week before I left I didn’t really feel like that was the case. She let my pup sleep in bed with them and if she could I bet my dog would tell me countless stories of how much fun she had with Tanya and Bella watching her. She fed her on time and took her out more than enough for walks. Addie and I loved working with her and will absolutely no doubt call her up again next time I have to leave town. 10/10”
About: i’ve been an animal lover for as long as i can remember ! i grew up in a home where we always had dogs, so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. i have over 10 years of experience with dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and personalities, from energetic puppies to sweet senior pets. i’m also a proud cat mom to my three babies, kiwi, cheese, and lydia! i’ve definitely become a bit of a crazy cat lady, but dogs will always have my heart too. i love my goofy, one of a kind mutts just as much as i appreciate the history and unique personalities of purebred animals. honestly, i just love them all! i’ve also been involved with smu’s campus cat community, helping feed community cats and participating in tnr efforts. my favorite part was finding mama cats and their tiny babies ! keeping up with all those feedings wasn’t always easy, but it was so rewarding . ♡ i’m comfortable with walks, feeding routines, bathing, basic training reinforcement, litter box care, and administering medications as instructed . i hate making the babies uncomfortable during medicine time, but keeping them healthy always comes first ! i’m also really big on communication and respecting each family’s rules ! every household is different . some families don’t mind their cats jumping on counters, while others don’t want those habits forming, and i completely understand both\! just let me know your preferences, routines, and little house rules, and i’ll do my best to keep everything consistent while you’re away. i’ll also happily send pictures and updates so you know your babies are doing well! Schedule: I’m currently working part time and have a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of time to care for cats throughout the day. I regularly help care for SMU’s feral cat community, so I’m used to feeding, socializing, and checking on cats at different times. I’m available for visits and drop ins most weekdays after 2 PM and weekends all day. I prioritize a safe, calm, and clean environment for every pet and always follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, and any specific care instructions. I make sure spaces are secure, remove hazards, and monitor pets for any changes in behavior. I currently have a puppy (a bichonpoo) and understand the importance of both love and structure. My motto is “life is too short let them sleep on the bed,” but I also believe discipline is key in shaping well behaved dogs. I’m happy to bring my puppy along for companionship if approved, but I always ask first since I respect that every pet and owner has different boundaries.
About: Ever since I was young , I have been around all sorts of animals and taking care of them. I help take care of my senior cocker spaniel. I raised two guinea pigs, a rabbit, dogs, cats, kittens, hamsters, fish, and birds. I went into the professional business as a Pet bather At a dog boarding facility and later started working in a veterinary clinic as a caregiver/nurse. I currently work from home so I have full-time availability to take out dogs as much as needed. Give them proper attention, playtime, outdoor activities and walks. I have a fenced backyard and two friendly dogs that love to play. I know how to follow routines and take them out early in the morning until late at night making sure they are fed happy and out of extra energy.
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life, my family has always kept pets and i have always loved caring for them. As an adult my house is a zoo, I have a cat, two dogs and a husband. Both of my large dogs have a variety of specific care needs I am experienced in giving like teeth and ear cleaning. I do most of their grooming in my back yard. I have experience in every stage of a dogs life, from a 4 month old puppy to end of life care. I am currently a stay at home mom to a very bubbly toddler who loves to accompany me on walks and drop ins.she loves riding in the backpack or stroller and taking in all the sights while on walks. My schedule is very flexible, and I am child free in the evenings and very early mornings, for the fur babies that are not fond of human babies. I try and get to know the dogs well so I know how to care for them based on their needs and personality. I love them all like my own!
About: I’ve recently grown to love taking care of dogs. The mindset I had when I walked into my first dog sitting job is not the mindset I have today. I felt nervous of the responsibility and risk, but now, I am confident, the playfulness of dogs in general lowers the stress of the job! I enjoy time with dogs and understanding them for the future when I can have my own. I also have a semester of experience with animal management from my senior year, giving me the opportunity to groom dogs, provide hygiene and play voluntarily. The opportunity also allowed me to study behaviors and important things to keep in mind about caring for dogs. Presently, I work as a host on the weekends, normally just a morning or a night shift, but if requested two weeks ahead of time, I could request days off, therefore I am able to be available all day as needed! Although Mondays - Wednesdays I have classes on campus. Mondays and Wednesdays I’m non-negotiably unavailable 11-4 pm. Tuesdays I am only unavailable 12-2 pm. Overall, besides my class schedules, I can make availability open! My home is normally not an option for care due to young children present. In client’s homes, I remain present at the house all day unless an important matter comes up, I will temporarily leave, not for long. I like to include playtime, keep the dogs busy and make sure they behave using tactics with treats. I prefer to stick to a consistent schedule throughout the days such as specific feeding times, time of day to walk the dogs, and any house maintenance schedules I should be aware of. I am able to sleep comfortably with dogs if wanted and walk them often, as long as the dog is not beyond my strength to handle.
About: I’m reliable, genuine, thorough & caring. I’ve volunteered with several organizations ranging from visiting with dogs in the shelter to visiting with hospice patients to working with international development organizations. Offering a helping hand is at the core of who I am so your pet friend will be in good care with me! :) I’m currently working part-time in the arts so I have plenty of time to play with your pup! I’m available weekends as well and will be happy to work with your schedule. I will introduce myself to your pup gently and humbly, take them out to relieve themselves and let them stretch their legs and explore enough to refresh their spirits :)
“Grayson responded to my request quickly he was very responsive and planned a visit quickly. It was so convenient to have him in my neighborhood, and his rate was a very good one (so appreciative). I appreciate Grayson's attention to detail in taking care of my fur baby and friend. I would definitely book Grayson again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Yucote Acres
I cannot say enough good things about the care our young Frenchie received. It was such a relief knowing he was in such good hands, which allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our time away. On top of taking such wonderful care of our dog, our home was also perfectly looked after. We are so appreciative!
This was our first experience using Rover and it was great. We have two dogs, one of which is sometimes anxious, so we didn't want to board them in a strange environment. Keri did a great job taking care of them and was even willing to feed and water our chickens and collect eggs.

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 Yucote Acres 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 Yucote Acres 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 Yucote Acres 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.

- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% 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.
