“Amanda was exceptional. There is no question that my cat, Ishta, was in tender, loving, and responsible hands. Amanda sent updates multiple times throughout each day including feedings, water checks, litter box, snacks, play, and wellbeing. These updates included multiple photos reinforcing the updates. She was so thorough. Moreover, the house was clean and tidy upon returning. She made the bed, the kitchen and bathroom were clean as I left it, etc. Lastly, she left an adorable little cat sponge that she used to clean Ishta’s dishes. It was a thoughtful touch. This was my first time using her services (3 consecutive overnight stays). I will unquestionably be using Amanda again. She was next level.”

About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life, I’ve cared, helped, and loved for 10 dogs at one time. I trained, bathed, feed and provided all basic. I’ve had more than a dozen dogs who’ve been pregnant (not at once) but I do know how to care for a pregnant momma and new born puppies. I’m well aware of the do’s and don’ts of pet sitting. Monday - Friday, 6:00pm to midnight longer if needed. Saturday I’m free all day, I’m free Sunday in the morning until 10am and available after 1pm to the rest of the day I feed, bathe, and give them water and take care of all basic necessities. I take them on walks and to the park and give them lots of cuddles! :D

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals and grew up surrounded by dogs and cats that I adored and cared for. Over the years, I’ve also had the opportunity to care for friends’ pets whenever they needed a helping hand. One of my most meaningful experiences was caring for a former client’s dog for four years before she passed away. That experience taught me just how important patience, consistency, companionship, and treating every pet like family truly are. I understand that every animal has their own personality, needs, and routines, and I’m committed to providing loving, attentive care while giving pet parents peace of mind. I work part-time, which gives me the flexibility to spend quality time caring for your pets. 🐾 I’m available after 6 PM on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, and I’m happy to keep your pets company and give them lots of love and attention until you’re home. I’m also available for overnight boarding on weekends. Whether your pet needs some extra cuddles, playtime, or simply a calm and loving presence, I’d be happy to be there for them while you’re away! 🧡🐶🐱 I provide care in your home, where your pets are already comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, playtime, walks, cuddles, and any other care they need. My goal is to give your pets plenty of love and attention while keeping them happy, comfortable, and feeling at ease while you’re away.

“McKensi was fantastic with our cats while we were aware! We had to book last minute after someone else cancelled, and we are so glad we picked her! The updates she provided were wonderful & she was early each visit! We will absolutely book her for our next trip.”


“Faith is AMAZING with animals and has a passion for their care and wellbeing- She took FANTASTIC care of our pups and sent us pictures and videos. She is reliable and is truly the absolute best pet sitter I have ever had!!!”

About: I've had a number of animals since the age of 4. From birds, and fish to Cats, dogs, and rabbits! I have always had a cat or dog in my home and I LOVE ANIMALS!!! I have house sat & boarded pets for 8 years now for friends, family, and neighbors. I treat them like my own and ensure that they're fed, get walked, lots of rubs, and everything I can to keep their usual routine! I'm currently not working and want to do something I love to stay busy. I have an open schedule to handle all your pets needs. I stay in a very spacious 3 bedroom home with yard space where they have plenty of room to roam. There are also parks near to release their energy. I currently have an open schedule. I always update my schedule to reflect any changes. I am very flexible at the moment. Once I have a pet job in place I try to focus on the pet/pets. It honestly depends on the animal. Different animals react differently with new people and different environments. If there's a shy dog, I like to let them come to me and lead with a gentle and dismissive approach. I would encourage them to play or come for pets, but I would not force it because that is not their comfort level. Another may be a big ball of energy and thrive on fun, pets, and praise. I like to make sure they're comfortable and happy.

About: I've been around dogs my whole life I truly enjoy animals. I have had 5 dogs in my 19 years of living and have grown up taking care and loving animals! I've also had multiple birds 😊 I'm in college so my schedual can be very flexible. I can talk about working holidays. I work hard and make sure your pets are happy and taken care of I like to play with the pets. I make sure pets are fed and have water with whatever schedual animal parent has. If parents are ok I will take the animals on walks and also check up on animals frequently. I also provide me staying over night if comfortable and needed
About: I have 4 years of hands on experience caring for my own and others’ pets, including senior, disabled, and chronically ill animals. I’m comfortable with pets who need extra patience and attention, including medication routines, mobility accommodations, feeding and hydration monitoring, and changes in behavior or appetite. I also have experience with everyday care such as feeding, litter boxes, walks, playtime, and keeping pets comfortable while their people are away. I’m currently offering pet sitting on a limited basis so I can give each pet plenty of individual attention. My schedule is flexible, and I’m starting with a small number of bookings each week. I’m happy to work with your pet’s established feeding, medication, play, and care routine. I care for pets in their own home and follow the routines and instructions provided by their owner. I’m attentive to feeding, water, medications, litter boxes, walks, behavior, and changes in appetite or energy. I’m especially comfortable giving senior, disabled, or special-needs pets the patience and extra attention they may need.
“Valerie did an awesome job! She cared for my fur babies as if I was there and she said they did a great job! I will definitely be utilizing her services again very soon! Thanks again Valerie!!!”

“Alma is awesome, she took great care of our chickens and our cat. We would love for her to take care of our pets in the future! Rover service is a very convenient way to communicate with your sitter when traveling.”

About: Hi! I’m Roxana, and I’d love to welcome your pup into our home and care for them like they’re part of our family. 🤍 Get $20 off your first Rover booking with the link below: https://www.rover.com/sit/roxanr15345 I joined Rover because, honestly, I’d love to have a second dog someday! Until that time comes, we’re happy to open our home to pups who need a safe, loving place to stay while their humans are away. We especially love dogs who are affectionate, playful, and have a little more energy. Walks, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of attention are all things we genuinely enjoy. We live near a park, so there are lots of opportunities for walks and getting some energy out. Walks are always done with a secure harness, and we have two fully fenced yards where dogs can safely enjoy some outdoor time. We always supervise dogs while they’re in the yard. Our home is set up to make visiting pups feel comfortable. We have extra dog beds, bowls, and treats (with your permission!), and dogs are welcome to relax with us throughout the day. We also love bringing dogs along for car rides when we’re running errands. If your pup is happiest being included in the action, they’ll fit right in here. I’ve had both cats and dogs throughout my life and have cared for pets for friends and family as well. Every dog is different, and I take the time to learn their routine, personality, quirks, preferences, and what makes them feel most comfortable. Whether your pup needs lots of activity, a quiet place to decompress, extra cuddles, or a little bit of everything, my goal is for them to feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Your dog isn’t just staying at our house, they’re staying with us. 🐾🤍 I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! ✨ My schedule is flexible! I work from home 2–3 days a week (and even more during the holidays), which allows me to give your pet plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship. I’m happy to work with you to accommodate your pet’s routine. ✨ Safety & Comfort First Your pet’s safety and trust are my top priorities. We have a large fenced backyard for safe outdoor play, and I always supervise time outside. Dogs never go into public spaces without a harness and leash.
About: hello! I have been taking care of pets of my own and other peoples pets for a total of three years. I truly enjoy it, and I tend to have a lot of fun with them. On the weekends I have generally nothing to do besides going to church on Sunday. During the week I work/go to school from 8-5. I have three dogs and two cats of my own at home. I make sure that they are fed accordingly that they are exercised accordingly and that they are taken care of. I understand, that pets need to be taken care of and watched very thoroughly sometimes. So I am willing to do the same for other people’s pets!
“Keasha was the absolute best. This is the first time we used Rover so we were a little skeptical but after Keasha took care of our cat we have no problem using it again. She communicated often, sent us pictures, our cat was so happy to the point where she didn’t wanna come back home to us :-) she was happy with all the attention. Thanks for taking care of Gypsy, Keasha.”
“Kari is our go-to Rover! She has checked-in on our cat several times now and always does a fantastic job. She always sends detailed updates and doesn’t hesitate to go the extra mile to make sure our cat has everything he needs while we’re away. She’s the best!”


“Well aside from the initial visit which one tremendously well, I have had one visit with my dog Avalanche. He took to her really fast, she was very loving caring and sweet to him during the visit. I would highly recommend her to anybody else. She is great in communicating as well as very punctual. Thank you for watching my little guy makes me feel much better while I'm at work.”

About: I have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Your pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away and you deserve peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. With years of experience caring for pets for family, friends, and through Rover, I understand how important it is to have someone you can truly trust. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so their day can feel as normal as possible while you’re gone. Whether your pet needs a walk, potty break, meals, playtime, cuddles, or simply some company, I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and getting the attention they deserve. I carefully follow your instructions and pay attention to the little things, because I know every pet is different.You’ll also receive updates and photos during visits so you never have to wonder how your fur baby is doing. My goal is to make being away from your pet easier for you and stress-free for them.You can relax knowing your pet is cared for with patience, attention, and lots of love. 🐾💕 I have a flexible schedule, so I can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and last-minute bookings. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, allowing me to give each pet plenty of attention and care. I have a safe and loving environment to cater to your pet needs. I have a fenced home for your pet to run and play and to enjoy their stay. I have 2 dogs. I could also come to your home to provided loving care for your pets.
About: Fur babies are family! They need love and patience. Growing up I had a Pekingese for 13 years and then a poodle mix for 12 years. So I learned at an early age the responsibility of caring for the family pet. My first adult pet was a mini lob rabbit which I had for 10 years. It had some medical issues in which required regular care from the local vet. A few years ago I was introduced to Great Danes and immediately fell in love! Zoe, my twelve year old Dane lived her best life. She went to parks, family gatherings, car rides, camping. She passed away last year at the age of 12 1/2. I am not ready for another pet just yet and now that I have some free time I would love to give others the sense of security by playing, loving and caring for their pet. I'm recently retired and have a flexible schedule. With that flexibility I have the opportunity to check on your pets or provide over night care with short notices. I have a fenced yard with lots of room for your pet to lay in the sun, run, stretch and play! For over night stays a crate might be beneficial depending on your pets behavior and comfort. For day to day visits I will respect your property and pet and follow your guidelines to ensure our pet friendly visit is successful.
About: Pet Care isn’t only my profession, it’s also my passion. I grew up volunteering at animal shelters, rescuing strays, grooming family and friend’s pets to earn new books, and participating in 4H. That developed into working at an animal shelter, fostering and training stay dogs, and horseback competitions. I learned to groom through a mentorship at a grooming and boarding facility, and now specialize with aggressive and anxious dogs who are turned away from other grooming shops! I’m currently in a mentorship for dog training at a training and boarding facility and continue to foster whenever the opportunity arises. My priority is always honest, compassionate, and ethical pet care. I am equally passionate about people as I am about pets, and strive to make myself a judgement-free resource for owners who feel confused, overwhelmed, or out of resources. Whether that’s teaching owners how to properly brush their dog, helping owners understand their pet’s behavior, finding resources, creating solutions for pet problems, assisting with rehoming when life doesn’t go as planned, or even just helping to foster a healthy and confident relationship between owner and pet. I have worked with ALL sizes, ages, and temperaments and I love all of them. I have worked with special needs dogs, and dogs with extra medical requirements. I’m currently working part-time and my job is quite flexible so I have plenty of time for your pups throughout my days. Each week is different but reach out to me and we can work something out! Because of my background working with dogs professionally, I am more structured and safety minded than most but it works in your benefit when leaving your pups in my care. I strive to follow the dog’s usual routines as closely as possible and make sure that exercise, mental stimulation, feeding, and play needs are met according to each pup’s requirements and owner preferences. There is no ‘one size fits all’ care routine when it comes to dogs since they are all individual and different just like people!

About: I’ve had big AND small dogs my entire childhood! I’ve also taken care of horses, steers, pigs, chickens, birds (exotic), dogs, cats! After growing up with only dogs and small house pets (hamsters, crabs, fish, frogs, and lizards)In my adulthood, my husband and I have opened our home to several rescues through the six years we’ve been together. At our home we consider ourselves “last owners” animals come to us to live out the rest of their lives, comfortable and loved. We’ve been by the side of 6 rescue birds, a few kittens and one chameleon to watch them cross over the rainbow bridge, and complete their journey. Between Gage (my husband) and I we have 10 cats (willow, meadow, sushi, pumpkin, chai, jenny, lucifer, salem, peggy & naruto) 5 birds (blanca, bleezy, grim, puffer & mongo bongo - she’s a 46 year old scarlett macaw! - ) 1 dog, (chief) 1 chameleon (pascal) and 1 scalata tortoise (torchy) ! we are obviously big animal lovers!! In conclusion, We both have tons of experience around all species of animal and we want your trip to be focused on enjoying YOUR vacation plans, and not worried about if your fur babies were left in the wrong hands! Most of my clients do not have children and their pet is their child. I want to you as the parent of your sweet baby, to be confident when you walk out the door knowing i’ll be there I can not wait to care for all of your babies, fur or reptile! please feel free to reach out to me send ask about my process of meeting the baby and we can discuss pricing! (if it’s too expensive DONT PANIC! we can communicate and i will really take whatever you’d like to pay. I understand vacations are very expensive and I don’t want you to have to choose between a fun tour or activity with you family vs having adequate care for your baby while you’re away. If you think i’m perfect for your home and baby, please let me know what you can pay and i will always work it out! I AM WILLING TO DRIVE AND TRAVEL TO YOU (OUT OF STATE) MY MILAGE IS SET TO 100 MILES LETS TALK!) My husband and I currently have 5 birds, a dog, and a seven kittens, we also are thinking about getting a bearded dragon and we currently have a scalata tortoise! We’re big animal lovers and would love to take care of any your sweet babies! We’re pretty flexible, I’m a full time ROVER sitter!! He works at Total Wine in Cedar Hill. If I’m not available my husband definitely is! Currently my husband works at Total Wine & More in Cedar Hill. When I / we stay in your home I will most likely be there all day! Rover is my full time job so whatever care your baby needs I’ll make sure to be on top of it! Most bookings I would like to keep my husband with me wherever I am (just for safety reasons), BUT if you’re not comfortable with that I TOTALLY understand and I’m more than willing to stay without my husband!! I want to do whatever makes YOU AND YOUR BABIES safe, happy and comfortable!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - DeSoto
This was our second time using Dakota’s services, and once again, he took excellent care of our cats, Wyatt and Daisy, while we were out of town. We really appreciated the updates and pictures he sent, which gave us peace of mind knowing they were well cared for. He even went the extra mile and brought in a package that was delivered while we were away. I highly recommend Dakota to anyone looking for dependable, trustworthy pet care. It’s wonderful to be able to travel knowing your pets are in such good hands!

Amanda took wonderful care of our cats while we were away! She followed every instruction we left with excellent care and paid close attention to the little details, which gave us so much peace of mind. Her check-ins through the app were incredibly thorough, and she kept us well informed each day with thoughtful updates and photos. She was always responsive, responsible, and clearly cared about making sure our pets were happy and comfortable. Best of all, our cats absolutely loved her! We wouldn't hesitate to book Amanda again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.

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 Meet & Greet .
