About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I currently have three cats of my own, with my oldest being 11, and I also had a dog for 15 years, so I have firsthand experience caring for pets through different stages of their lives. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I’m always patient and attentive to their individual needs. I truly love animals and will treat your pets with the same love, care, and attention that I give my own. Pet care is already a natural part of my everyday routine since I have three cats of my own. I’m used to planning my day around feeding, playtime, cleaning, and making sure they get plenty of attention and love. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to make time for walks, drop-in visits, and spending quality time with the pets I care for. I’m happy to work with each pet’s normal routine so they feel as comfortable and cared for as possible while their owner is away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always do my best to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any special care preferences. I make sure pets get plenty of attention and affection while also respecting their individual personalities and boundaries. I’ll keep their space clean, make sure they always have fresh water, and provide regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Dallas is $20
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Dallas
I had an amazing experience with Maria! She arrived early for the drop-in visit, stayed the entire scheduled time, and went above and beyond by taking my dog on a walk. She kept me updated throughout the visit with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind and showed how well my dog was being cared for. It was clear she genuinely cared and made sure my pup was happy and comfortable. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I will absolutely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!
I can’t recommend her enough! This was my first time ever leaving my dog with a babysitter, and she made the entire experience so easy and stress free. I was traveling to a new state, and she took such great care of my pup while keeping me updated the whole time. She was excellent at communicating, incredibly understanding, flexible with my schedule, and genuinely caring. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. She treated my dog like he was her own, and I could tell he was well cared for and happy. I’m so grateful I came across her. She made my first experience with a dog sitter a wonderful one, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Thank you so much for everything!
Averille was great! She was very patient with my cat, even though Violet is a timid cat. She always kept me updated on how she was doing and even tried making her comfortable with liquid food pack. By the end of the week with Averille, Violet was letting her pet her and playing with her.
This is the second time I have used Kytari’s pet sitting services since she did SUCH an amazing job the first time around. She is great with communication and you can tell she truly cares about the well-being of your pets as if they were her own. I returned from my weekend trip to happy, healthy kitties and never once had to worry about them. Thanks again to Kytari!
Kelsey was AMAZING!!! She agreed to watch our pup for a pretty lengthy period of time and on short notice and took such wonderful care of him. She provided frequent updates and was extremely reliable. We are so thankful for her and will definitely be using her again!
Moving to a new place was tough on me and my fur babies. Dylan made sure to take care of all of us by keeping me informed while I had to be away, and taking care of my boys and place as if it were his own. I truly appreciate the top tier level of attention and care Dylan provides, and how intentional he is every step of the way with each visit. Thank you so much for making our transition easier, Dylan!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Dallas on Rover is $22.2 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 9,134 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:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
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.
