“Julie was absolutely amazing as a fur baby sitter for Prince! From the very beginning, she was warm, attentive, and genuinely caring. Leaving Prince with someone else can always be a little nerve, wracking, but with Julie, I felt completely at ease. She treated Prince like he was her own, making sure he was comfortable, well cared for, and showered with love and attention. I could tell how patient and nurturing she is, and that meant everything to me. Knowing he was in such good hands gave me so much peace of mind. I’m beyond grateful for the care she provided and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and truly compassionate to watch their fur baby. Thank you, Julie, for taking such wonderful care of Prince!”

“I had a great experience with Paul this weekend! He took wonderful care of our dog Leo and kept us updated with daily photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind.

“Where do I start…Patricia is everything a dog owner could ask for. She’s sweet, attentive, and very reliable. I received updates with pictures and videos around the clock. Never had to wonder or ask how my baby’s doing. Patricia was always one step ahead! She was truly a blessing to me and Sky, we will definitely be back!”
“Kimberly was absolutely amazing taking care of my dog Luke for 5 full days! She kept me completely at ease with daily updates, sharing adorable pictures and details of all their fun activities together. Luke came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved—couldn’t recommend her more highly for any pet parent!”
“Matt &Tiffany did a fantastic job taking care of my dog Skylar I received pictures everyday and messages about how her stay was going. I could not have asked for a more caring family, true dog lovers! Highly recommend this family and will definitely use them again.”
“Awesome family who absolutely care about taking care of your pet while you're gone! I received daily updates via photo as well as being notified if my dog seemed relaxed / nervous. I have maybe boarded my dog 2-3 times in her 14 years and felt very comfortable leaving my pet with Meghan and Sam. Thanks!!”
“This was the first time leaving my two pups with a sitter and they were completely at ease! One of my pups is dog aggressive and I had zero worries leaving him with Sam! Sam is very professional and personable, he sent daily updates and treated my pups like they were his! Will 100% be using him again!!!”
“Laurie did a wonderful job taking care of my dog for two weeks. We had used the same dog sitter for 10 years and she had recently moved. I was nervous to find someone new as my dog is 13 and also very anxious. We met Laurie and I knew she would be perfect. She kept us updated and sent pics, so I never had to worry. I am so thankful we found her.”

“Peggy and her husband were absolutely amazing! Duke loved staying with them and I know they treated him as if he were their own. We didn’t worry about him at all the whole time we were gone because we knew he was in such good hands. Peggy will definitely be my go-to from now on anytime we need to board Duke!”
“We boarded our two dogs with Gladys this past week, and we were so pleased. Our dogs were well taken care of and she treated them as her own. We received daily updates and pictures which made us feel assured that they were in good hands. This was first time that we were away from our pups and Gladys was the perfect person to take care of them. We will definitely use Gladys again and recommend her highly.”
“Kirina was absolutely wonderful with Ace while I was away traveling. From the moment I dropped him off, I felt confident he was in great hands, and throughout my trip I never had to worry about how he was doing. She provided regular updates, photos, and messages, which I truly appreciated and gave me so much peace of mind.”
“Dane and Celeste were the best rover dog sitters we have had! They spent all weekend watching my dog and took great care of him. Went the extra mile to send videos of Arthur playing and kept me updated. Very responsive, dependable, trustworthy, and I can tell they love having dogs over! Would recommend Dane & Celeste for dog watching needs!”
“Melky and Jorge were fabulous! We left our 3 pups with them for a few days over the Christmas holiday. It was a last minute decision and our regular sitter was fully booked. Melky send a lot of photos every day showing the pups were having a good time, eating well, and having fun. When we got back, I went to pick them up. They were happy to see me but they kinda wanted to stay there longer. We will re-book with them for sure.”
“Erin was AMAZING!! She made us feel so comfortable from the very first message! She was incredibly sweet, communicative, and attentive, and it was such a relief knowing our baby was in such good hands. It’s not always easy trusting someone else with your fur babies, but Erin made the entire experience so easy and stress-free! We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely be booking with her again! We couldn’t recommend her enough!! ❤️”
“Selene is such an awesome sitter! We were very thankful for her taking our Pablo into her home and treating him like he was her own. She updates you throughout the times she is in care of your pet. We appreciate her and look forward to booking her again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Farmers Branch
Lana was safe and loved, which mattered most to us. The environment was very laid-back and less structured than what she’s used to at home. I didn’t feel the need to micromanage her routine, we all went with the flow. Being around other dogs and small children was a new experience for our dog, but the children and other dogs were very loving and I think the relaxed atmosphere was a good change of pace for Lana. We prefer having Lana travel with us, but this family is a solid backup plan for our family.
Amazing experience! Communication was great throughout. It was my first rover experience and I felt completely comfortable knowing my dog was in good hands. They were friendly, reliable, and caring. I really appreciated the updates. I would absolutely book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!
Megan and her family always take such good care of my girl. My pup seems like she had a great time, to the point she didn’t want to leave lol. Megan was also accommodating when I requested a drop off time change. Definitely would reach out to Megan again the next time I need a sitter.
Gabriela was such a kind, helpful and responsive sitter! She was always quick to respond, and always sent multiple photos of my pup before I ever had to ask. We’re new to the area, so it was great finding such a responsible and kind sitter so quickly. Would definitely recommend Gabriela and will definitely rebook with her!

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.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Farmers Branch can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Farmers Branch home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Farmers Branch.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Farmers Branch. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
You and your Farmers Branch sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in TX ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
