“Dakota was great with our animals. They are a handful of a group, so it was awesome that Dakota was able to handle them. He was also very good about keeping in contact and keeping me in the loop!”
“Amanda did an amazing job. She kept us updated with how everything was going and even sent us photos. The house was kept as clean as we had it and all of our boys were clearly well loved and taken care of while we were away. I highly recommend her for any of your needs to include house sitting! Very reliable and trustworthy!”
“We love Nita and trust her with our precious Max! We were out of the country for this last trip and felt completely at ease. The house was the same as when we left but more importantly Max was happy and relaxed. We already have her booked for our next trip and several more are coming. She is great!!”

I understand the importance of maintaining routines, providing regular exercise, feeding schedules, and plenty of attention and affection. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with companionship, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My goal is to provide a loving environment where dogs can thrive, whether they are staying in their own home or in mine. If you want something that helps you stand out, you could add: As a teacher, patience, consistency, and attentiveness come naturally to me. I understand that every dog is unique and deserves individualized care, clear communication, and lots of positive attention. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine right now because I am on summer break from teaching and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship throughout the day rather than only being available during limited hours. Whether your pet needs regular walks, frequent potty breaks, medication reminders, or simply extra company, I have the time and flexibility to make their care a priority and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. In my home, pets receive plenty of supervision, attention, exercise, and affection. Because my yard is not fenced, all outdoor time is closely supervised and dogs are kept on a leash for walks, potty breaks, and outdoor activities. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines, feeding schedules, exercise needs, and house rules to help pets feel secure and comfortable. I maintain clear communication with owners and treat every pet with the same care and respect I would give my own.
“Azia was great with our Australian Shepherd! She was well cared for and obviously given lots of attention. Azia also communicated with us regularly about how our pup was doing. We’d love to have her watch Millie again!”
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.
“Ty did a fantastic job taking care of our anxious pups! He provided photos/video updates daily and we could see how happy our dogs were. Not only did he provide loving care with walks, playtime, and cuddles; but he also did personal training sessions with our dogs as well to help improve their behavior. He is professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and experienced. We will definitely book with Ty again!”
“We needed a sitter at the last min. She came same day and did the meet and greet. She was very nice and the dogs liked her. For it to be her first time house sitting she did an excellent job. We would most definitely use her again.”
“We couldn’t be happier with Cassie’s care of our home and dogs while we were away! We have two middle-aged dogs and a puppy, and each of them was clearly well loved and cared for—happy, relaxed, and full of energy when we returned. Cassie went above and beyond in keeping our house spotless; in fact, it was cleaner than when we left, which is saying a lot given all the rain during our trip. It gave us such peace of mind knowing both our pets and our home were in such capable hands. Cassie is responsible, attentive, and truly wonderful—we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Angela did great with our bulldog! She stayed over at my house for a weekend and left the house as clean as when we left. She followed instructions very well and sent great updates throughout the day. She also reached out when she was concerned about our dog’s allergies and that was extremely kind of her! Would definitely book again!”
“Cassidy was great looking after Bubba! We were in constant communication while we were gone and sent me pictures almost daily, which I appreciated. Will definitely reach out to her in the future”
“Ayobami was great! She took good care of our dog and cat and even fed our koi. She communicated daily (sometimes twice a day) with photos and videos. We felt very comfortable with her staying in our home and would definitely book with her in the future.”
About: I have been on Rover for about 4 years since I moved to DFW. I have also owned 2 English bulldogs. I have experience raising a puppy and I currently have a 5 year old, male English Bulldog. I would LOVE to take care of your fur baby!! I currently work a full-time job but I’m happy to make time to care for your fur babies! I am available for cat/dog sitting around Cedar Hill during weekdays and outside of Cedar Hill on the weekends :) I have experience with senior pets and puppies, from low energy to high energy level. Please include detailed descriptions of medication or conditions, if any.
“Alexandra is INCREDIBLE! She maintained consistent contact, she sent multiple videos and pictures the entire time! Remington got a nice walk, a car ride, a Dutch Bro cup, and lots of individual care aka SHE GOT SPOILED 💗🐾! I couldn’t have dreamed of a better Rover sitter! 10 OUT OF 10 would highly recommend!! We can’t wait to book again!!”
About: While I’m new to professional pet sitting, I’ve cared for a family member’s dogs and cats on several occasions. I’ve helped with feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping litter boxes clean, always making sure they felt comfortable and well cared for while their owner was away. I’m responsible, attentive, and truly enjoy spending time with animals, and I’m committed to providing safe and dependable care. As a college student, I only have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11 AM–2 PM, which gives me a very flexible schedule throughout the week. Outside of those hours and my part-time job, I have plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, and quality time with your pets. I plan my days carefully to ensure pets receive consistent care, attention, and timely feedings, so you can feel confident they’re in reliable hands. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their usual routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they receive timely feedings, fresh water, walks, playtime, and lots of attention while keeping their space clean and tidy. I don’t currently have a pet of my own, so my home is a calm environment, and I’m able to accommodate small to medium-sized dogs. My goal is always to provide safe, attentive, and loving care.
About: First things first my name is pronounced On-Dree-uh like mitochondria. I love Jesus and am always looking for extra ways to raise funds for missions. I also serving families and helping care for your home and pets. I will leave your home better than I found it. If there are dishes in the sink, I will clean them. If they is a dirt on the floor, I will vacuum. I want you to rest assured that your home and animals are in good hands. I’ll love on your pups and do whatever you need. My goal is for you to not have a worry about anything and not think of what could go wrong. I want to be trustworthy and dependable. And I vow to play your piano each time I come through. I am an open book and will never lie to you. Hope you consider me as an option. I’m not currently working so I have lots of time and adaptability in my schedule. Anything I do is online for the most part so as long as I have wifi access I am set! I care for things as if God is watching and sees everything. Nothing in your home belongs to me and unless you give me permission to use something, it’s not available to me.
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.

DeSoto pet parents share their Rover experiences
Angela did an excellent job caring for our two large dogs in our home, one of whom is elderly and requires extra attention. She was very communicative and took extra care of their needs while updating us along the way. We appreciated it and would recommend her for future bookings.
Alexis was able to take care of my kitties at the last minute. One of my cats is on a medication that he needs to take daily at the same time and Alexis was able to do it with no problem. Both of them seemed like they had a good time with her while I was away when I got back. Definitely will work with her in the future!
Dakota took the best care of our two boxers (and house!). He sent me photos daily and kept me in the loop that all was well. I have never not worried about our pets while we were gone, and I was able to focus on our sports competition fully while he was at our house. It was much-appreciated.
