“Ashley was so good with my little man. I felt at ease while I was away without service a lot of the time knowing that she was there to give him love and attention and look after him and my house. Would definitely book again!”
“Shama was amazing!!!! My boy cat immediately took to her and she respected my shy girls boundaries! She took such amazing care of them! I was completely at ease while on vacation which is rare for me. Shama is an amazing sitter!! Will definitely be booking again. Plus I think Binx is missing her!!”
“Joanna was absolutely incredible! We highly recommend her! She gave our sweet kitty boy the best care and all the cuddles he could imagine! She was fantastic in every way- caring, communicative, kind, dedicated, and very loving to our kitty. Joanna gave him the highest quality care at each visit, and provided detailed, thorough Rover card updates and photos. She diligently took care of his itchy ear problem with medication and gave plenty of feedback about how they were healing. Our cat adores her and loved his time with her! Joanna is wonderful!”
About: I've been taking care of pets since 2022! I am flexible when it comes to drop-in visits and dog-walking! I have cared for my neighbors' and family friends' pets as I care for my own! Looking forward to working with you! I am currently a graduate student at UT Arlington in their social work program. I also work a retail job in my free time. My schedule often varies, but I will make sure to keep my calendar updated each month. If certain times don't work for you, just let me know! I am very flexible! I have a Belgian Malinois (Star) that I walk often because of her endless energy! I enjoy playing with her whenever I am home from my internship or class. Not only will I provide the necessary care for your pet, but I will also make sure I put all my love and care into them!
About: I truly love animals 🐾 I’ve spent 12 years caring for pets — feeding, walking, grooming, and everything in between. I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds, including a sweet tripod girl who hopped around better than some dogs with all four legs, a loyal gentle giant German Shepherd, and currently an energetic lab/Great Pyrenees mix who keeps me active and on my toes. Friends jokingly call me the “animal whisperer” — even shy, nervous, or standoffish animals tend to warm right up to me. I also have deep experience with cats, so if you’ve got both dogs and cats, I’ve got you covered. I keep a flexible schedule outside of a part-time job, which leaves plenty of time for walks, feeding, and check-ins. I'm happy to work with you to find times that fit your pet's routine. I don’t offer boarding, but I’m happy to provide walks and drop-in visits at your home. I’m attentive to safety details like secure leashing, checking food and water, and following any specific instructions you leave for meds, routines, or quirks. Your pet’s space and routine are treated with care and respect.
About: Hi, I’m Vivian! I currently work as a vet tech and have spent hundreds of hours pet sitting for dogs and cats in their own homes. I’ve handled everything from meals, walks, and playtime to giving medications and keeping up with each pet’s routine. Before becoming a vet tech, I worked as a kennel tech at a veterinary hospital, where I cared for boarding pets and kept an eye on changes in their appetite and behavior. At home, I have two Siberian huskies and two budgies. Whether your dog wants to sniff every mailbox or your cat just wants some quiet company, I’ll follow their lead and send you a photo and a quick update after each visit. I plan my walks and drop-in visits around my classes. If your dog has a favorite time for a walk or your cat likes dinner right on schedule, just send me the days and times you need. I’d be happy to see what works! When I visit your home, I’ll keep things as familiar as possible for your pet. Just show me where their food, leash, and favorite toys are, and let me know any house rules. I’ll double-check doors and gates, keep dogs leashed on walks, and give shy pets time to warm up. I’ll also send you a photo and a quick update so you can see how your pet is doing!
About: Taking care of pets is something that has always been instilled in me, as I grew up in a family of animal lovers. From strays who found their way to us, to shelter animals that we fell in love with, each animal that I’ve had in my life (over 25+ pets throughout my life) has been well-taken care of and loved every second! Outside of cuddling with these adorable pets throughout my life, I also gained experience with taking care of them as well. With dogs and cats of many breeds and sizes, I have experience with grooming, cutting nails, scooping litter boxes, going out for walks, and administrating both liquid and pill medicine! I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet in the hands of a stranger, but I promise to take care of your pets as if they’re my own! I’m currently working full-time, but I am available on Tuesdays and any time on weekends to take care of your pet/s! I love going for walks multiple times a day, and playing with cats whenever I can, so your pet will fit perfectly into my schedule! We have a large space with an extra room where your pets, or mine, can be given their own space with food, toys, bathroom setups, etc.
About: Have an energetic dog who needs more walking? Let them come take a walk with me! I'm an avid daily walker and often go hiking and backpacking. I used to love walking with my own dog and look forward to walking with yours! I work fully remote and have a flexible schedule and can accommodate your scheduling needs. I specialize in weekday morning walks and in-home visits with additional evening and weekend availability. Dogs and cats appreciate routine and schedules as much as we do! My goal is to provide your furbaby with a routine as close to their regular schedule as possible, whether that's walks, playtime, food or medication.
“Britni was awesome!! We left to New Orleans for vacation.While in New Orleans, We received several photos of our dog Brownie, keeping us informed on how she was doing. Britni is a very nice lady that can be trusted with your family pet. Even during the meet and greet session, Britni made us feel welcomed and our Brownie as well. I promise, you will not be disappointed. You will have a sense of relief, knowing your pet is safe and most of all, able to enjoy your vacation with your family without worries. I will definitely be using Britni in the near future and also schedule some play dates for Brownie. Thank you again Britni, Randy R.”
“First time using a cat sitter in Sherman and Ava was great. Sent me detailed repot and photos with each visit. Think my kitties are upset she's not back tonight. Highly recommend her.”
“Having Leanna come and check in on my babies while I was gone was the best decision ever! She kept me up to date with pictures and videos. My babies looked so happy. Will definitely use again!”
About: Leaving your dog or cat with someone else can feel like a BIG deal! You want to know they’re safe, loved, comfortable, and in the hands of someone you can trust. That’s exactly what I’m here for. I’ve been part of the Rover community since 2019, and over the years I’ve had the opportunity to build wonderful relationships with pets and their parents. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they receive the attention, patience, and care they deserve. I especially enjoy caring for puppies and medium-energy pups who need a little extra attention and structure throughout the day. Whether they love going on walks, playing, getting some extra cuddles, or simply having quiet time to decompress, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. My goal is simple: for you to feel confident knowing your fur baby is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐶🐱💕 I have 3 cats of my own so taking care of someone else’s fur baby and incorporating them into my routine is very easy and enjoyable. I have a fenced yard behind my apartment where they can play and run around. I also have a park and dog area to take them to release all their energy. Best part is, It is a very dog friendly community!
“My cat can be a bit moody when I’m gone, and Emma handled him so well! Emma was super attentive, gave him real quality time to bond, and a whole lot of affection. I’ve already set up my next booking with Emma!”
“My fur child doesnt warm up easily to many people but he likes Maria a lot and will actually play with her when I’m out of town. She’s great with him and cares for jinx so well I’ve booked her twice in a matter of weeks and will continue to do so when I need a sitter. 10/10”
“Samantha cared for my cat while I was away for an extended weekend. I am so happy I booked her as she took great care of him, sent me lots of pictures, and followed all of the (extensive) instructions I left for her! It was the highlight of my vacation days to get her updates and see that my baby was happy and healthy in her care. She also did extra stuff like bring in my mail and clean up cat throw up, which I really really appreciated. Will be booking her when I need a sitter in the future. Thanks for all of your efforts & the love you gave to my cat, Samantha!! 🩷”
“Crystal was amazing!!!! Can’t thank her enough for making Oro’s stay relaxing and comfortable. She not only took excellent care of him, she also socialized him with her other cats. Highly recommended!!!”
“Saige was absolutely amazing, needed a drop in visit last minute and she was able to accommodate! Updated on their behavior and mood and shared pictures of my babies as well!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Farmers Branch
Haley was awesome! She was very attentive and took such great care of my cats while I was away. They absolutely loved playing with her, and it was clear they were comfortable and happy. I knew they were in good hands the entire time, which gave me so much peace of mind. I would definitely recommend Haley to anyone looking for a caring and reliable cat sitter!
Susan was everything we could have asked for in a cat sitter! She sent many photos, multiple videos, was detailed in her notes to us after each drop-in, and was just wonderful! She played with our cat and sat with him to give him head scratches (which he loves!) We will definitely be reaching out to her when we need a cat sitter next!
Karina was wonderful with my gang of five. She fed them, administered medication and still found time to love on all of my babies. Communication was excellent, heartwarming photos and texts everyday. She showed genuine care for each of their individual personalities.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Farmers Branch is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $31 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 1,204 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Farmers Branch. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.

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 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.
