“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.”
“Valerie is easy going, communicative, respectful and punctual. She understood our senior dog’s needs with compassion and followed our instructions to a T. We will definitely be using her services again, and we highly recommend.”
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.
“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! 💕”
“Our 2nd time having Jess care for our 3 cats and she's phenomenal! Our cats remembered her from the first time and were completely comfortable already. Her check-ins were great and we recommend her 100%!”
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.
“Felicia is amazing! She goes above and beyond with great communication and excellent care for your fur children! I felt totally at ease during my trip seeing as they were in the best hands! Thank you so much, you have a client for life”
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.
“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.”
“Isabella was amazing! One of the best dog sitters so far! I highly recommend this person, I am constantly updated on photos and when she’s coming to my house to let my dog out… I have no complaints! I highly recommend Isabelle… Outstanding work!”
“Carmen and Dee were absolutely amazing with my 2 babies!!! They watched them for a week while I was out of town and were even flexible when I had to extend my trip. They sent me lots of photos from every drop in and updates which relieved my anxiety so much!! I have a very anxious and difficult Frenchie he does not cooperate well with strangers but Carmen and Dee knew exactly how to gain his trust and made my babies feel comfortable. They followed all my instructions and kindly cleaned their food and water bowls. I couldn’t have picked better sitters and I will definitely be booking with them from now on 🥹🫶🏽 10/10 recommend!!!”
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 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.
“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: 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.
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: I have experience caring for dogs for family, friends, and neighbors. I am comfortable feeding, walking, playing with, and providing companionship for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I am dependable, responsible, and make sure every dog is safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I work during parts of the week, so my availability can vary. Feel free to send me a message to discuss a time that works best for both of us. When I am off work, I am happy to provide drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and care for your dog. I strive to be flexible and communicate clearly to make sure your pet receives the attention and care they deserve. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medication, routines, and special needs. I make sure dogs are supervised, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. I also provide updates and maintain open communication so you can feel confident knowing your dog is in good hands.
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!

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.

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.
