“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.”
“Sarah was absolutely wonderful with our senior Lab and our younger Lab! She was incredibly attentive, communicated regularly, and sent us pictures throughout each day, which gave us so much peace of mind. We trust her 100% with our boys and our home and would absolutely recommend her. We’ll definitely use her again!”
“I’d give Wendy 10 stars if it was an option! She was fantastic and our babies LOVED her. It’s so nice to have someone that loves your animals and takes care of them and your home the way you would. Would absolutely recommend and would definitely use her again. Thank you again Wendy! ❤️❤️”
“What a sweet lady! From the moment she first met Luke I could tell she was going to be great, she went straight to him and started peting and caring for him, what else can I dog mom ask for? Kinsleigh was courteous enough to stay in our house while we had a very late event across town. When she left in the morning, the house was tied up just the way we left, Luke was fed and had already taken his potty break. My baby looked happy and we will definitely ask Kinsleigh to watch Luke again.”
“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!”
“We were very happy with Joleen’s care of our cat and house while we were away. She took such great care of Kit Kit who is not the most social or friendliest cat around, otherwise known as a PIA. We received picture updates and were so surprised how she had the cat eating out of her hand in no time. The house was immaculate when we returned… we couldn’t ask for anything more. You will never want to use anybody else!”
About: I have had pets my whole life. I have been around dogs and cats and have taken care of friends and family's pets. I volunteered at the animal shelter in Mckinney for 2 years. I currently am fostering a friend's two cats while they get back on their feet. I have a corgi that I have had since a puppy and two cats. I currently work Monday-Friday 7:30am to 4:00pm, but I work from home which gives me flexibility to watch your pet. I can do overnights if needed. If a pet comes to my home I have a fenced backyard with a corgi that loves other dogs and cats. I have plenty of dog and cat toys. My cats, also, don't mind other pets.
“Monique was great! Had a last minute hiccup come up, but Monique was flexible and worked around issue to make sure she was still able to care for Wyatt. Super responsive. Very consistent and timely in providing updates and photos. Could tell she was going to be very sweet w/ Wyatt upon meeting her, and I was right. 10/10 recommend”
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.
“I cannot say enough great things about Tanya. She was a life saver in a pinch! Our dog sitter cancelled on a holiday week, and she was willing to jump in and take care of our sweet 14 year old chocolate male lab. He loved her from the minute he met her. She knew just how to give the perfect TLC to our senior dog, and kept us at peace with the photos and texts during her stay. I can’t recommend Tanya enough, and can’t wait to have her stay with Tucker again, he already misses her. She is the best!”
“Maria was so amazing!! She stayed at my house for a little under a week and sent sooo many pictures every single day which made me feel confident that Lucy was well loved and taken care of while I was away. Lucy absolutely loved Maria- she slept in her bed every night with her and made a new best friend. Maria was super communicative and easy to work with- I received updates on when Lucy ate, went potty, went on a walk, etc. i fully trust her to take care of Lucy (and my house!) and I will definitely be using her every time I go out of town. Thank you Maria!!!”
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.
“Mariya was so phenomenal with our sweet golden retriever Archie! She took all the fun videos and sweet photos while she was dog/house sitting. We are so appreciative of how attentive and playful she was with our golden! Our golden LOVES kids so it was so fun to know her little ones got to hangout with him as well! Archie felt right at home! :) She took him on all the walks and showed him all the love! Will be rebooking with Mariya ASAP!”
“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!”
“Dylan took excellent care of our two senior dogs as always. One even has fairly complicated medication and feeding requirements as well as closer monitoring and more frequent trips outside. He REALLY saved the day this trip because I got COVID and had to stay an extra day before I could fly. Dylan handles all with ease.”
About: I care for pets of all ages, including seniors and special needs. I’m experienced with medication, basic training, and always tailor care to each pet’s needs. Caring for pets is a joyful part of my day. I love spending time walking, playing, and making sure each pet feels safe and happy whenever I’m with them. I provide attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs, whether at my home or yours. I follow their routines closely—feeding, walking, playtime, and rest—while ensuring a safe and loving environment. I’m experienced with administering medication and handling special needs to keep pets comfortable and happy.

Lindsey was absolutely amazing with my dogs! She took great care of them, kept me updated, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It’s obvious that she genuinely cares about animals, and my dogs were happy and well taken care of when I got back. I really appreciate everything she did and would definitely trust her with my dogs again. Highly recommend Lindsey!
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 , 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.
