About: 15+ years of professional kennel experience specializing in whelping, ABKC show training, puppy care, and light grooming. Providing safe, knowledgeable, and compassionate care you can trust. I am home most days, as my school-age children ride the bus to and from school, allowing me to be available for pets throughout the day. My schedule offers flexibility for feeding, walks, check-ins, and supervised care. Weekend availability allows for extended stays, drop-ins, and consistent routines to keep pets comfortable and well cared for. I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment for every pet in my care. I have one fur baby of my own from my former kennel and a fully fenced backyard for supervised free play and exercise. Pets have access to a crate for a quiet, personal sleeping space if needed. I provide toys for mental stimulation and entertainment, along with healthy, homemade treats. For added comfort, I also offer moisturizing balm for paws and noses to keep your pet feeling their best.
“Valerie is not only professional but very responsive. I have to older dogs that she cares for and I trust with both of them. One is blind and truly dependent on her caregiver. I can confidently leave her and know she is well taken care of in my absence. So thankful for the peace of mind in knowing she’s there to help and take great care of my furbabies!”
“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.”
“I so appreciated Carmen helping me out last minute when my other pet sitter needed to cancel last minute. She and Dee were very sweet and were patient with my shy cats who eventually warmed up to them. I will definitely book them again.”
“Outstanding care! truly went above and beyond for my dog. Her love, attention, and expertise made me feel confident and stress-free on my trip. My dog is reactive, which made me a little worried but she handled him so well, and was treated amazingly! Highly recommend!" And most definitely booking her again!”
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!
About: I am a Retired Veteran looking to be your next pet sitter. I am Trustworthy & Reliable. I will treat your fur baby’s like they were my own. I can only pet sit in your home since I have 3 dogs of my own. I would love it if you want to set up a meet and greet. I am not working as of now so my schedule is wide open to schedule short notice or long term care if needed. I do require a meet & greet. I can only do care in your home because I have 3 dogs of my own. Just let me know what your preferences are and we can work it out.
“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.”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for my own two dogs, which has given me a strong understanding of daily routines, exercise needs, and the importance of consistent, loving attention. Beyond my own pets, I’ve also helped families by dog sitting for both short and extended periods, caring for dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic care, going on walks, and making sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I treat every pet like they’re my own, giving them the attention, patience, and care they deserve. I am a sourdough home baker so I work from home and have plenty of time to schedule what works best for your babies. I’m flexible with my schedule and can usually accommodate any requested time. My puppies have their own little space with toys, blankets, and their pillows. I have a Furbo camera to check on them and get updates on their day if I’m out of town. I’m mindful of your home, keeping everything clean, secure, and just as you left it, so you can relax knowing both your pet and space are in good hands.
About: I have over 8 years experience of animal care! I’m currently a lead animal care specialist at one of the biggest animal shelters in the state of Texas! I’m currently working 9am-6pm, but am available after 7pm Mon-Sunday for you furry companions needs including walks, play time, and check ins. Over 8 years of experience with animals of all shapes and sizes with wide range of knowledge about feline and canine needs, behavior patterns, and social skills.
About: I have worked in the veterinary field for over 3 decades. I know how to read your pets body language and how to look for signs of illness or injury. I currently work at an urgent care veterinary practice. I work full-time but am currently off all day Thursday-Saturday. I am also available most mornings Sunday-Wednesday for visits that are relatively close to my home. I will not be caring for pets in my own home. I believe it would cause stress to my own pets and possibly to yours. I would follow any instructions given by you when doing drop in visits to your home. However, I will never take your pet out for a walk off-leash, even if that is something you routinely do.
About: I’ve been the primary caregiver for my own dog for 11 years, handling daily walks, feeding, grooming, medications, and vet visits. I’ve also cared for family members’ dogs with a variety of needs, ages, and personalities. In addition, I’m an active member of Texas A&M LEIAS, a women’s organization founded on leadership, academics, and service with a strong focus on animal rescue. This involvement has strengthened my sense of responsibility, patience, and commitment to providing attentive, compassionate pet care. As a college student, I’m very organized with my time, and pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around classes to ensure pets receive consistent walks, feedings, playtime, and attention. I’m committed to maintaining each pet’s normal routine and can be flexible to accommodate specific needs, whether that’s daily check-ins, extended care, or overnight stays. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I carefully follow all owner instructions, keep pets secure, and monitor behavior and health closely. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I strive to create a calm, structured, and loving environment. My involvement in LEIAS and animal rescue–focused service has reinforced the importance of accountability, compassion, and treating every pet with the same care I’d want for my own.
“Samantha was great. She did the drop in service twice a day while we were out of town. She sent us pictures and text message at each visit to let us know all was well. She's very personable and and easy to talk to. We will definitely take advantage of Samanthas service again in the future.”
“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'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.
“Essence was extremely helpful with taking care of my dog while I was gone. She was dependable and sweet. She made sure my dog had his daily exercise and replaced his food and water. She even worked on some training exercises with my dog , definitely will use her services again next time I go out of town.”

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 .

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 Duncanville 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 Duncanville. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
