“Carmen is amazing, a great communicator and very loving with our elderly dogs. She always goes above and beyond when I’m traveling to relieve any anxiety or stress I may have when I’m leaving them.”

About: With over 7 years of trusted experience caring for furry friends (cats and dogs alike), I provide a safe and reliable environment for your pets. I have a wealth of knowledge, experience, tools, and equipment to ensure the best possible stay. Whether I care for your pets in my clean, pet-friendly home or yours, I offer comfort, security, and plenty of attention and love . I commit to making every pet feel at home while you’re away. I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to focus on pet care. I’m able to plan my days around visits, walks, and check-ins, making sure each pet gets reliable attention and care throughout the week I provide attentive, individualized care during every walk and drop in visit. I take time to get to know each pet’s routine, personality, and needs; whether that means an energetic walk, a potty break, feeding, playtime, or quiet companionship. I always prioritize safety, comfort, and positive reinforcement to ensure pets feel happy and well cared for while you’re away.
About: Caring for my chihuahua mix for the past 5 years has given me hands on experience with daily routines, behavior quirks, and how to provide calm, loving care, especially for small or nervous dogs. As a high school teacher, my schedule allows me to be especially flexible during weekends, holidays, and summer breaks. During the school year, I’m available in the afternoons and evenings on weekdays for walks, drop-ins, or sitting needs. Whether it’s a weekend getaway or daily care, I’m happy to work with your schedule to make sure your pet gets the love and attention they deserve! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always create a calm, welcoming environment where pets can feel secure and cared for, whether we're at your home or mine. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, needs, and personality to provide personalized care and minimize stress. You can trust that I’ll treat your fur baby with the same love, attention, and respect I give my own. I also provide regular updates and photos so you’re always in the loop and can feel confident that your pet is in good hands.
“This was my first time booking with Katie, and she was excellent. She communicated every step of the way and kept me fully informed. She is kind, professional, and has a great personality. I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog in her care and will absolutely book her again.”

About: I started pet setting because of my love of fur babies. To me, they are not pets, they are family. I cared for my Simon for the past 18 years. My house has been customized for him because he was a part of my family. From his own room with pet pictures and a fun chandelier, to the dog doors on our patio, to his own private section of the yard, my home is pet friendly. My home will be your fur baby's home away from home. I have experience with young playful pups all the way to senior dogs who require more delicate attention. My family is ready to assist you in your needs. I am a stay at home mom. My schedule typically involves taking my kids to and from school, sitting on the patio, going for walks around the neighborhood, shooting home decor youtube videos, and shopping. While fur sitting, I will typically be home. Your baby will have its own little room (the closet under the stairs with a baby gate). His room is only a few feet from my own bedroom and in the middle of the living room and kitchen. If your baby is housebroken, he will be able to walk around the house freely and I will take him on the patio and the playground in my backyard. If he likes walks, he can go on walks. If he is a senior or if it is too hot outside, I can take him for a walk in the pet stroller. I will also send videos and pictures throughout his stay. I have a large fenced in back yard. Your dog will not be outside alone. I also have an enclosed patio which is great for relaxing and getting fresh air without having to be completely outside.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages since I was a child! I grew up on a farm and have had Rottweilers, Pitbulls, cats, horses, and lots of animals of various sizes in between. I love all dogs and cats from chihuahuas to Great Danes and would love to care for your pet as well :) I currently work 3 days a week so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pet! I am available 4 days out of the week and will have those 4 days off to devote to your pet! I live right on the Katy Trail and walk there everyday. I have no pets of my own so there’s no need to worry about negative interactions. I am also willing to take your pets to any appointments they may have!
About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats of all ages and breeds! I take my time to bond with them and make them feel like they are at home. I’m very patient, loving and gentle with dogs but am not afraid to be firm if needed. I love getting to know what every dog loves and genuinely enjoy playing and hanging out with them! I am free during the weekdays and the weekends at any time! So your sweet pup will have plenty of playtime and lots of attention! In my own home I I will make sure to ask the client questions about their pup and if they are okay with other dogs because I do have a dog. But can accommodate to that. I want the dog to feel like they are at home and I want them to be happy, loved and cared for. We have a fenced yard so your pup will have plenty of space outside to play! When I am in a clients home I put my focus on the animal I am caring for and put all my attention and time into making sure they get a walk,food,water, playtime and love! I always make sure I am very respectful and aware that it is not my home and am not afraid to reach out and ask questions if I have them.
“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!!!”

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.
“Mariah is great. I needed last minute care and she was able to help. I met her and her family for a meet and greet and they were so good with my babies. I will definitely have her in mind for future care :).”

About: My availability is very flexible. I work from home now and am finally able to love on your fur babies around the clock! I also offer house sitting at your home or at my house as well. I love taking the fur babies out for a walk. It’s good exercise for them and myself to get fresh air. Previously had two chihuahua’s that were escape artists so fully doggy proof. I also have experience on working with handicap fur babies. I currently worked with a fur baby that lost motion in his back legs prior to his visit to me and he was/is now able to balance on his back legs from the at home physical therapy we would do. And now he gets so excited when I drop by his home to check on him (we are actual best friends seriously.) I am available to walk your dogs or check in on your cats/dogs while you are away as well as make sure they are fed and have plenty of water and play time throughout the day if you have an extremely busy schedule. I have been house sitting dogs and cats previously for well over 15 years and have owned pets previously (before my parents moved overseas and kept the pack together) for well over 20 years. Would love to help with your fur babies! I work full time as a manager from home so I am able to fully utilize loving on your fur baby as well as take them out for walks and potty breaks consistently. When I am pet sitting the babies sleep in the bed with me and are on the couch getting all of the cuddles. It is a staycation.
About: My husband and I have a passion for all pets. I have a flexible job and am home most of the time during the day so I am able to provide lots of love, attention and playtime to our furry friends. My husband gets home around 5, and he loves coming home to new dogs and cats to play with and cuddle! We have a large, fenced in yard for our guests to run and play in. In addition, we provide the “parents” with updates and pictures throughout the stay so you can have peace of mind knowing your dog is having fun and is well cared for. We have 2 friendly dogs and 2 friendly cats of our own. We look forward to caring for and loving your furry friend! Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns😊 **If your dogs are not cat friendly, we can still accommodate you by keeping the cats in a separate area of our house!
About: Mi casa is always Su casa to your dog. I am currently free, and have plenty of time to love, spoil, and care for your dog. I will cater to your dog as if they were my own. I have a fenced in yard with a shed that has AC, as well as an office with crates for your dog to fit comfortably in. I have dogs to keep your fur babies comfortable and have a play mate. I have a fenced in yard with 2 dogs to keep your fur babies company. I can easily crate your dog if needed…All breeds are welcome. I'm currently avaliable nights, weekends and holidays to fulfill all of your pets needs. I enjoy and have a deep passion for taking care of all breeds of animals. I find great joy in looking after their needs and well-being. I absolutely love caring for all breeds of dogs in my home, providing them with a safe, healthy, supervised playtime, nurturing, controlled, and loving environment.
“Alejandra did an amazing job looking after our two kitties! It can be very difficult to find a sitter that you trust to look after your babies and she proved to be very trustworthy and attentive. We will book again! 💕”

“Ana was amazing! We had a small mix-up with dates and even though she didn't have to make the accommodation since the error was my fault, she went the extra mile to help me! She did an excellent job with Vadar -- she seems to have a knack with connecting with dogs. I was actually puppy sitting for my daughter, but now that I know about Rover's services in general and the extraordinary service of Ana, I'll certainly be requesting her again when the need arises!”
“My Wife says I love the dog more than her, and any good husband knows not to argue with their wife so that said, our Dog is the most precious thing and I’m always anxious to leave her, not to worry though, Penny loveed AnTuan from the first couple of minutes and it made my few days away from her very stress free. Came back home to happy, stress free dog. Top, top service and helped us at short notice too. Couldn’t recommend him more !!”

About: I’m a lifelong dog/pet owner and have had my own dog for 6 years. I enjoy staying busy, and would love to spend time with dogs when I’m free! I live in an apartment near Willow Bend, but would be willing to drive a moderate distance to watch your pup! I am a movie lover who enjoys spending the day lounging around or playing with my 12 pound Chihuahua/ Pinscher mix! My family lives close by and we frequently have dog play dates. I allow dogs on my furniture and keep them out in the house whenever I am home. Your dog will get plenty of attention, excercise, and love will you are away! Thanks! I work full time, 9-5, however when I am watching your furbaby, all of my free time will be devoted to them for play and love! I am not available for boarding in my own home, but I am available for house sits and drop ins! When I am in your home, your pets are my top priority. I prefer to spend my time with them, and will treat them as if they were my own. Our time will be spent playing inside, or enjoying the fresh air outside in your backyard or on walks. I am also unbothered by dogs on furniture, and am familiar with all personalities. If you prefer to have your pets kenneled when I am away, that will be no issue.
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 11. I’ve had three different pets, all of whom have lived to old age and had incredible health. I’ve also served as a dog sitter for neighbors, family, and friends. I’m an avid hiker and runner, which means that your dog will have no problem having someone to keep them active. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m available on weekdays after 6 PM, and I also offer dog sitting on weekends. I start my day early—usually around 6 AM—so I’m happy to take your dog on a morning jog or walk, as well as another walk in the evening. Right now, I’m on summer break, which means my schedule is much more flexible, allowing me to provide attentive, reliable care throughout the day as needed. If I’m in the client’s home, I respect their space, follow their guidelines closely, and maintain open communication. I provide updates and photos to build trust and reassure owners that their pets are happy and safe. Whether feeding, walking, playing, or administering medication, I handle every task with care and attention to detail.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - DeSoto
Amanda was great with our very reactive dachshund! She took time to get lots of info and was willing to work with our unique circumstances (he's only willing to meet new people when we aren't there), and I'm so glad to have found her! Will definitely be using her whenever we go out of town and for days when we both have to stay at work late and he needs some extra love.

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 DeSoto 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.
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 DeSoto 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!
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in DeSoto with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
