“We are so thankful we found Amy and Rover! Amy did an awesome job taking care of our boys, and gave us incredible peace of mind while away. We received excellent photos and multiple updates throughout the day and didn’t worry once about the health and well being of them. Thank you Amy for being a true professional and someone we could rely on! Can’t wait to have you back next time we are heading out of town!”
“Melissa was a great dog sitter! I didn’t have to give her many instructions, yet she went above and beyond to care for my dog. She communicated well and sent many pictures. I would recommend her to anyone!”
“She was amazing to our kitties! Our hard to please hard to get out of a dark corner. Eleanor loved her and we’re so happy that she was able to do this for us will be booking again.”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love, patience, and attention I give every animal in my care. I currently have a Husky, a Pitbull, and a cat of my own, so I’m very comfortable with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. From active dogs that love long walks and playtime to cats that need a calm and caring environment, I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ve also cared for many cats over the years and know that every pet has their own routine and unique needs. I treat every animal like family and focus on providing reliable, loving care while keeping owners updated for peace of mind. My passion for animals truly shows in the patience, care, and attention I give to every pet I meet. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals is something I truly enjoy. I work full time, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the attention, walks, playtime, and care they need throughout the week. I’m also available on weekends, which gives me even more time to focus on providing quality care and companionship. As a pet owner myself with a Husky, a Pitbull, and a cat, I’m already used to maintaining feeding schedules, exercise routines, and giving pets lots of love and attention every day. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm environment, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved whether they are staying in my home or I’m caring for them in their own home. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions from the owner. I know how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away. In my home, pets will have a clean, safe, and caring environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. Since I have experience with both high-energy dogs and cats, I’m comfortable handling different personalities and energy levels. In a client’s home, I make sure pets feel relaxed in their familiar environment while also keeping the home clean, secure, and well cared for. I provide updates, photos, and communication so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and in good hands.
“She was incredible! My cats loved her, even my little girl cat who has never let anyone else pet her! She left my house perfect and everyone was happy when we got home. Extremely good communication, will definitely book again!!”
About: I’ve always loved dogs, and have always helped my friends and neighbors train and watch over their dogs. I am currently training my German shepherd, and had a very well mannered husky lab mix that was the love of my life for 10 years
“took great care of my pup and kept me updated and helped some with his training (sit, lay down) Would definitely recommend to anyone! And would definitely have her watch him again!”
“Sara is an animal whisperer. Look no further for peace of mind when you’re out of town. Her updates are perfect and your fur babies and home will be in excellent hands. We were nervous as Rover is mostly for dogs but Sara also has a cat. We couldn’t be happier with the love and care she gave our 20yr. old cat Murphy! She will be our 1st choice every time?. Thanks Sara!”
About: I have had many dogs/cats my whole life and have grown up taking care of them. I will treat your pet with love and care because that is what any pet deserves! I am currently working part-time with very flexible hours so I will have the time to take care of your pet! I can pet sit during the week and the weekend. I will give your pet as much attention as they require! I will feed them and take them potty whatever times you need me too as well as walking them. They will always be taken care of with me!
“Trinity took this job last second over the Holliday. She took great care of our dogs and would let us know if anything happened. Seeing the pics daily I could tell how much our dogs enjoyed having her there to watch them and spend time with them.”
About: I have years of experience caring for both dogs and cats, and I genuinely enjoy the everyday rhythms of pet care—feeding, walks, playtime, litter care, and quiet companionship. I’m attentive, patient, and respectful of each pet’s unique personality, boundaries, and routines. I understand that pets can have very different needs—some are energetic and social, others are shy, sensitive, or independent. I’m calm, observant, and gentle in my approach, and I prioritize making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their people are away. I offer pet care during the times I’m not with my son, which means when I’m booked, your pet has my full attention. I plan my availability carefully and only accept visits I know I can show up for consistently and on time. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’m attentive, detail-oriented, and mindful of each pet’s environment, routines, and signals. I take care to follow instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, and maintain a calm, respectful presence in your home. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I treat every home with respect, communicate clearly, and approach each visit with patience and care so your pet feels safe and at ease.
“Caroline is great! She’s prompt, friendly and very kind to our dogs. When we say her name now at the house, their heads pop up, their experience has been so pleasant that they know in a way who we’re talking about. A+.”
“Veronica was great with our 2 cats, who are semi-feral (brought in from outside). We were unsure of how they'd do with a stranger and it went more than smoothly. Veronica communicated well and got great pictures of both kids, who didn't skip a beat once we got home. They've remained well behaved and calm, and have adjusted very quickly after us being away. Veronica is professional and took very good care of our kids. Will book again next time we're in need.”
“Cheyenne was great with our Chloe! Loved the daily check in cards and pics! Cheyenne clearly understands kitties and their unique personalities. I would definitely rebook with her!”
“I am amazed by Emmalyn! I just moved and i found her 2 days before my trip and she was the best! Very communicative, very detailed and she took the best care of my cats! Very loving. She also sent some extra videos and pictures. I will be hiring her again.”
About: I have cared for my family and friend's dogs for many years in a variety of situations. I can crate, walk, jog, feed, and generally handle all types of dogs, even those with a number of quirks! Your pet and home are safe with me. I will take care of them like they're my own. I'm currently a full time Masters student and Army Reservist. I work from home and have a lot of flexibility in my daytime schedule to help you with your dogs needs! I'm familiar with the use of a variety of different collars, harnesses, and leashes. I can crate, feed, and do a host of other tasks for your furry friend

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Dallas
I have never let anyone watch my dog outside of people close to me. It took a lot for me to decide to book someone to help with Kota. While a bit timid at first Kota definitely has warmed up to Leighanne and I thank her for her patience with him since he’s not the easiest dog to get accustomed to. I would definitely book her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Dallas on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 5,250 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Dallas. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Dallas stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Dallas. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
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.
