“Buford loves Angela! She is a dog whisperer! The communication was great! She was so attentive to him. He never poses for pictures for me! This was my first experience with the app and I was so pleased!”
About: I have 3 doggies of my own that I love. I have over 2 years of experience in pet care. I've worked with dogs of all ages and different breeds. I worked at a dog boarding facility and puppy store. I did a lot of feeding, cleaning, playtime and updates for owners. I have also given medications and cared for dogs with special needs. I'm not employed right now and I have a lot of free time. I can visit or stay with your pets as long as needed. I can safely care for your pets in your own home. I will follow any instructions and schedule of your pet. I will care for them as if they are mine.
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.
“Katie is amazing! She was great with our dog who is a bit skittish around new people and that gave us such peace of mind! She was always right there to take care of our animals so we could enjoy time on vacation with our son!”
“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: As a dog mom myself, I know how it is when you’re wanting to trust someone! Have no fear! I’ll be your fur baby favorite homegirl! I work full time (for myself) Monday-Thursday. My availability would be starting sometimes Thursday evening or Fridays-Sundays. However I’m open to being as flexible as needed! While I’m home we tend to chill or play with toys! When it’s nap time we nap in crates and go outside to play after!
“Elizabeth was absolutely perfect. We hit it off from the time she came for the meet and greet. I could tell that she was going to be a perfect fit to care for Nola!! We would highly recommend her and will use her again.”
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals since the day I was born and have always had a special passion for loving and caring for pets. Throughout my life, I’ve had experience with dogs, cats, hamsters, turtles, and even a guinea pig. I truly believe every pet deserves kindness, patience, attention, and plenty of love, no matter their shape, size, or personality. My family members and friends have trusted me to care for their fur babies while they’re away, and I always treat every pet as if they were my own. I work part-time, usually 4–5 hour shifts, and typically have two weekdays off each week. My weekday schedule varies between morning and afternoon shifts. When I work mornings, I’m usually at work from around 8:45 AM to 1:30–2 PM. When I work afternoons, I’m usually at work from 1:45 PM to 7 PM. On Saturdays, I typically work from 12–5 PM, and on Sundays I usually work from around 10 AM to 2–3 PM. I have flexibility before and after my shifts and on my weekdays off, and I’m happy to plan around my work schedule. I provide care in the client’s home and will treat both their pets and their home with care and respect. I’ll follow the pet’s normal routine and any instructions provided, including feeding, walks, medications if applicable, playtime, and bathroom breaks. I understand how important it is to trust someone in your home, so I’ll communicate clearly, keep the home secure, and make sure your pets receive plenty of attention and care while you’re away.
About: 🐾 About Me: A Calm, Patient Sanctuary for Your Fur Babies Hi, I’m Noelle! I’m a proud cat mom to two wonderful fur babies, and caring for animals is something that genuinely brings me joy. One of my cats was actually a 4-week-old stray kitten that I successfully nursed and cared for, and watching her grow into the happy, healthy cat she is today has been incredibly rewarding. I also absolutely love dogs! I have experience walking dogs as large as a Pit Bull, including my aunt’s sweet Pit Bull, Zion, who I loved taking on walks. Whether I’m giving a dog a good walk, keeping a cat company, or simply sitting nearby while they do their own thing, I love being able to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. One of my favorite things to do with my own cats is sit on the balcony with them (safely on their leashes, of course!) and watch their curious little minds take in the world around them. 🌟 Specializing in Shy, Anxious, or Senior Care I’m very attentive to the animals in my care and tend to notice the little things—from changes in behavior and body language to their individual cues, comfort levels, and boundaries. I believe every pet has their own personality and deserves patience, respect, affection, and care tailored specifically to them. Because of this, I excel with pets who need a little extra time, gentleness, or understanding to feel secure: • Timid Kittens & Selective Cats: As a cat parent who has handled everything from bottle-baby stages to adult dynamics, I speak their language fluently and am completely comfortable letting a shy cat set the pace. • Anxious or Senior Pups: I hold a naturally quiet, steady frequency that is incredibly reassuring to older dogs or pets navigating physical vulnerabilities (like vision or hearing changes) who thrive on a predictable, soothing routine rather than high-energy chaos. 🏡 What I Offer Whether it’s dropping in for quiet companionship, sticking to precise feeding schedules, or managing house-sitting stays, I bring a reliable, observant, and respectful eye to your home. I naturally drop into a calm rhythm that keeps your environment peaceful and your pets completely relaxed. I’d love the opportunity to give your pets that same level of deep attention and care while you’re away! I currently work full time Monday- Friday from 8am - 4:30pm. I’d be happy to check on your fur babies after I get off of work. I work from home about 2-3 days per week as well! I am willing to sit with your cat or dog while I work some days if you ever needed. When it comes to caring for pets, safety and trust are always my top priorities. At home, I’m very intentional about creating a calm, comfortable, and secure environment for my own cats. I keep a close eye on them, pay attention to their routines and surroundings, and make sure they have a safe space where they can relax and be themselves. I’m also very mindful of doors, windows, food, household hazards, and anything else that could potentially put a pet at risk. Most importantly, I respect each animal’s individual boundaries and never force interaction when they’re uncomfortable. I’ll bring that same level of attentiveness and care to your pets—following your instructions, maintaining their normal routines as closely as possible, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. My goal is for you to have peace of mind knowing your pet is not only being watched, but genuinely looked after.
“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 :).”
“Super appreciated Camren coming out. Did a fantastic job meeting Batman. Feeding him, walking him, and being super friendly and would absolutely book again. Thank you!!”
“Amanda watched over our three dogs for four days. My dogs took to her immediately. In fact, they ate their meals each day, whereas with other dog sitters, my dogs would sometimes get separation anxiety the first 24 hours. Amanda sent photos with each visit and illustrated how comfortable they were with her. I would fully recommend her and I'd give her more stars than five if I could.”
“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!”
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!

I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, especially when you’re away from home. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll make sure to follow their normal routines as closely as possible. This includes feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I know every pet has a different personality, so I’ll always be patient and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own.

I’ll provide pictures and updates during visits so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are in good hands!

About: I’ve had pets in my life since elementary school, and I can’t imagine it any other way! My love for animals began with Blue Heelers, and after saying goodbye to my pup of 13 wonderful years, I’ve happily crossed into the cat world (and loving every minute of it!). I’m a total softy when it comes to furry friends—I’m guilty of handing out a few extra treats and never turning down snuggles. Whether it’s playtime, a good walk, or just keeping your pet comfortable and cared for while you’re away, I’ll treat them like my own. Your pets’ happiness and ease are my top priority, and I’d love the chance to keep those tails wagging and purrs going while you’re gone! I currently work full-time on a hybrid schedule. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, so I’m available after 5:30 PM those days. On Tuesdays through Thursdays, I’m available after 6 PM. Weekends are my sweet spot—I have open availability and plenty of time for walks, play, and snuggles! I always come prepared by following your instructions closely, so your pet gets the care and routine they’re used to. Every animal I meet is treated with the same love and respect I’d give my own. I know some pets may be a little shy or unsure at first, but with patience, kindness, and consistency, I’ll work to earn their trust and make them feel safe and comfortable with me.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - DeSoto
Amanda was absolutely wonderful with our puppy, Penni! She was on time for every visit, followed all of our instructions perfectly, and was so great about keeping us updated and sending pictures. She took such good care of Penni with her potty breaks, lunch, and playtime, and we felt completely comfortable knowing she was in good hands. You can tell Amanda has a lot of experience with animals and genuinely cares about them. We will definitely be booking with her again!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in DeSoto is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $22 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 6,827 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across DeSoto. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 DeSoto. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
