About: I’ve always loved animals and have grown up with family pets. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to adapt to each dog’s personality and routine. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe and loved, especially when away from their family. ❌ Cat services unavailable (allergies) As an online student, I have a flexible schedule and can work around your needs. I keep my availability updated, including time reserved for school and finals. Your dog’s safety comes first. I follow your care instructions, observe behavior closely, and send updates so you know they’re doing well. I’m best suited for dogs with routine care needs and cannot provide extensive medical or specialized care. If you have any questions, please reach out!
“Amazing pet sitter! He took great care of Benji and Milo, walked them, fed them exactly as instructed, and paid attention to every detail we left. We came home to two happy and relaxed dogs. Highly recommend!”
“Aleigha was great with our dog, Leo! She was super personable and attentive, and kept us updated throughout the evening with pictures and messages. We felt totally comfortable knowing Leo was in good hands. Highly recommend her!”
“Nikki was excellent! We received updates throughout our time away and she was quick to respond to our messages. We came home to not only a happy pup but a VERY clean house and such a thoughtful surprise gift. Made our day! Will recommend to others and absolutely rebook.”
“Alonna was awesome! We felt at ease leaving town knowing she was caring for our pups. She checked in frequently, send pictures, and left the house clean. I would book her again in a heartbeat, and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her!! :)”
“Highly recommend Victory. Our dogs and our home were so well cared for when we left town. She was so attentive, communicative and thoughtful of the needs of our pups and ours from start to finish. You really cannot ask for more. Will 100% work with her again and will be able to enjoy time away, knowing our pups and our home are in amazing hands.”
“Lily recently watched my three puppies and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! She was incredibly attentive to each of them, kept up with their individual schedules and even took the extra time to work on training commands with them. She kept me updated throughout my trip with photos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were happy, well cared for and having a great time. Lily truly went above and beyond and it was clear how much she genuinely cared for my puppies. I will absolutely be using her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, responsible and dependable pet sitter!”
About: Love & caring for animals isn't for just anyone & everyone. It takes dedication, love, knowledge & patience. My Aunt has a farm that I spent most of my summers growing up. So my love for all animals grew even more from dogs & cats to goats, horses, pigs, horses and my favorite, Rabbits! I was dog walking bathing,sitting and just loving them around age 12.

I know how hard it is to leave your babies & I promise to always communicate, video chat with your furr baby whenever you need. Any special requests your pets needs I'll be there for them. ***IMPORTANT**Please Read***Future clients to know ***I also base my fees on miles driven to clients home, large breed dogs etc... So the price can be adjusted if needed ... Other Example.... Overnight stays, walking, bathing etc . For reasons of me having to leave home to run errands, pay bills etc... I do prefer dogs to be crate trained if possible. I have a fenced in yard with 2 dogs... Bella she's half Mastiff/German Shepherd. Bella & Bear are both create trained. Bear is a Pomeranian that belongs to my daughter. 1 cat "Sparky" Tabby that thinks he's King!!! Currently I do my own schedule, and .

“Parris lived up to his reputation. This was only my second time using Rover and I read his reviews prior to booking. He was as wonderful as everyone said. Took such good care of our dogs, stayed in touch with us, and the house looked exactly the same as when we left. If you had more that 5 stars I would choose them all. Very good pet sitter. I will use him again!”
About: I Love all animals but Dogs are just the BEST! I've been a dog groomer for many years. Ive been called the Dog Whisperer my whole life. I can also work with your doggie if it needs any training in certain areas. I have a great personality, super loving to animals, very attentive, reliable, trustworthy. Dog sitting, boarding or Grooming no matter what I'll be there and care for you're loved ones as if they were my own. You wont be disappointed in your choice with me. Can't wait to meet all the new furbabies! 🐩🐕🐶🐩🐕DogLife🐕🐩🐶🐕🐩 I prefer boarding in my home and getting the fur babies to feel at home there. No kennels unless a dog owner prefers it and brings their own. I’ll be with the fur babies at all times. Never left to be alone. Available to take them on as many potty breaks as needed. I have a sweet loving bernedoodle, She has been around all sizes and ages and she understands to be gentle with the old one's. She pays them no mind. The smaller ones are usually wilder than her. I always follow care instructions. I never make them kennel if they don't want to. I'm like the fun Aunt, I'll let them get away with anything, too an extent. This is their little vacation too.
“Christine was amazing with our pup Honey! She took awesome care of her and kept us updated with tons of cute pictures while we were away. She was punctual and left our apartment spotless!”
About: I have been taking care and looking after animals since I was 10. My family had several dogs, cats, and even reptiles at all points in additional to several friends here in Charlotte. 📸Instagram: buckrover I work in a remote setting for a tech company and make my own schedule. I’m very flexible in my hours and can also work from anywhere. I care with both ease and detail in how the said animal is to be taken care of according to their owners specifications and request.
“Gracie was great! We have a dog that gets medicine multiple times a day and has reactivity issues- it was no problem for Gracie. She kept us informed and let us know when she would be gone longer than expected up front. We did not worry about our dogs at all while we were gone and they both seemed happy and well taken care of when we got back. Our home was left in good shape as well, which was much appreciated. We will definitely use Gracie again.”

About: Dogs come first in my house. I’m always excited to take my dogs on a hike, walk or puppy play date. Unfortunately I recently had to move out of state, leaving my family dogs where they grew up with my parents, in our family home. I have sat numerous dogs both young and old. I am always up for a pup slumber party. I have worked with foster dogs who were abused and need extra love and attention. Any specific requests for them? Let me know and I can be accommodating! I am currently working a part-time schedule with my job as a spa manager. Morning walks or weekend care will fit best within my schedule! I care for pets as if they are my younger siblings. I believe a good dog, is a tired dog! Letting them play and explore helps get extra energy out, allowing them to stay fit and healthy!
“Quite simply the BEST!! Arrived as promised. Sent great pictures. I could tell in a couple that my girls were happy. I can't say enough good things! I've never felt so secure while away. Many, many thanks.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Dallas is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Dallas
Madelyn did an amazing job looking after our basset hound puppy and our cat Shira. She was very communicative and always sent us photos of our pets which we know enjoyed their time with her. She made us feel a lot better about leaving them for the weekend and made it a lot less stressful. I would highly recommend her to anyone!
Madelyn watched our two dogs while we were out of town for a week. She gave us updates daily with pictures! Our dogs loved her! She took them for walks and played with them outside! She was amazing and I would highly recommend her to anyone and we will definitley be using her again!

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 Dallas 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 Dallas 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 Dallas 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 .
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.
