About: I’ve taken care of my neighbors pets and house sat for several years. I have multiple years of pet sitting and baby sitting experience in the stl area. I’m currently home for nursing school for the summer and am looking to get a part-time gig while still having time for online classes and studying. I’ve taken care of animals that have a fence and also those who need walks. I’m a big hiker so if your dogs love a hike I’d be a great fit.
“Kellyn was an awesome sitter with great communication. She followed all directions including washing my cat’s bowls. I loved receiving all the updates and pictures of my cat while I was away. Would definitely book with her again.”
“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!”
“Haylee was great about communicating timing and making sure that my dogs were taken care of during my long days at work. Very respectful of my house and made me feel better during my work days knowing my dogs were being taken care of.”
About: I'm so excited to spend time with your fur baby and hopefully do justice for the extra special care I know they already receive from you! I absolutely adore dogs. Before I had one of my own, I would volunteer to walk all my neighbors' dogs, so I'm super excited to continue that passion all the way to now. I'll take extra great care of your baby for you whether it be playing fetch in the park or taking walks around the block, I've got it covered. I pay extra close attention to detail, so if you have any concerns or your pet has special needs, just let me know what I can do to best accommodate you and your dog. I have heard many a horror story about pet sitters not doing what they’re supposed to and I can assure you that nothing but the best service will be provided to your baby. I can't wait to meet your furry family member!! I work a full time remote job and have a flexible schedule to best accommodate any special needs or strict schedules your pet may need to follow. I know how important it is that your baby get their exercise, socialization, and love! I have a patio that your dogs are free to hang out on as well as a park a couple blocks away that we visit daily. I’m also familiar with a few trails in area that I frequent myself.
“Erica was great! She took very good care of my dog, Abby. Abby was ill during the visit and Erica did a wonderful job administering pills and making sure my girl was OK. Erica is an extremely good communicator, very dependable, and left detailed rover cards. I highly recommend.”
About: I grew up with a dog always in the household. My family once bred three litters of Beagle puppies. I currently have a 13 year old Yorkie who never leaves my side and has my highest standard of care and love - 24/7/365. People in my circle call me a dog whisperer, for what it’s worth. I’m THE guy that watches everyone’s dog while the owners are at work, out of town, or unavailable at any notice. Your dog will be treated to the best dog-sitting service in North Texas, guaranteed. They won’t even notice that you’re gone! I work from home full-time, so I will be able to provide immediate duties such as feeding, walking, and playing, as well as my upmost attention and care. I have a large fenced-in backyard along with a big pool and plenty of space to roam around. Your dog will think he or she is in Cancun on vacation. There is a doggie door that can be accessed by small to medium dogs. My Yorkie uses this door to come in and out as he wishes. The doggie door can be locked at any time depending on your preference, or if you’re possibly concerned about the pool. I will be able to crate your dog at any time if requested. I live in a very safe and quiet neighborhood that has plenty of sidewalk if you request that I take your dog on walks.
“Michelle was amazing and such a big help with our pup! She loved on our little guy and made sure he was well taken care of, while updating us the whole time. We are so thankful for her!”
“Here’s a polished Rover review: Emily was a great help with my girls. She arrived on time, was communicative, and even turned around to provide additional help when we needed it. My boyfriend’s plans changed unexpectedly, and she was incredibly flexible with her schedule. She spent quality time playing with the girls and kept us updated by sending videos throughout her visit. We really appreciated her reliability, kindness, and willingness to go above and beyond. I would absolutely recommend her and would book with her again!”
“Lauren is great!! My puppy had the best time with her, she sent us updates and photos every check-in, great communication and care! I will definitely book with her again.”

“My cat Roxi loved Michelle! She played with her and gave her lots of love and snuggles while I was away! Sent lots of pictures and videos that I enjoyed! Thanks again Michelle!!”
“Cynthia was reliable and easy to communicate with and flexible. They followed instructions well and made sure my cat was fed and checked on regularly and she actively gave me updates while I was away. I appreciated the updates, which gave me peace of mind. Overall, a solid and dependable experience, and I would consider booking with them again.”

“Samantha was great with my three-month-old puppy, showing a lot of patience and care. She was attentive, friendly, and made sure he felt comfortable. My puppy took to her right away, and I could tell he enjoyed his time with her. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

The best as always! Jeannine takes great care of our cats and our home. When our pets fall ill she promptly communicates and helps us come up with a reasonable plan. She cleans up messes promptly and is reliable. We can travel with total ease of mind thanks to Jeannine!
Lauren was an outstanding sitter for our sweet, but shy cat. We got thorough daily updates, and Lauren gave our cat so much love and attention. She was very responsive with any potential issues. Will be reaching back out to Lauren next time we need a Rover!
Gabrielle did an amazing job caring for my 2 dogs Gary and Gilbert! She came 3 x a day attending to all of their needs, communicated with me, and sent me photos. I highly recommend Gabrielle for pet care on Rover.com. I knew I was leaving my dogs in good hands!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Dallas on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 8,877 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
- 96% 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.
