“Ashley was great and reliable! Our cat loved that she would make time to sit with him and give him lots of pets and treats! Always responsive when we had questions, and we never had to worry about our cat while we were away. She is awesome!”
“Outstanding! Made everything easy for us and gave us the confidence to be away and know are babies were being taken care of. Jamie did 30 minute check-ins, fed and walked over a weekend. She handled a 90 pound puppy and an elderly mid size dog. 💜💜”
“My cat sitter that I’ve used for years was retiring and I was in panic mode to find a new sitter. My sister recommended Rover. I did 3 Meet and Greets and Jackie stood out! She was comfortable, knowledgeable, and interested in my cats, not just what she was expected to do. So glad we met. And her services were perfect. Always sent note and pics each day. I was never concerned and could enjoy my vacation. I will be rebooking for my next trip!!! Thank you Jackie ❤️”
“Julie was so great!! She saved us when we had to be gone for an extended period of the day unexpectedly. She took lots of pics and had a great update, looks like our dog loved her!”
About: Hi, I’m Sam! I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 17, gaining valuable experience with all types of dogs, including rescues, special needs pups, and even the more challenging ones. My clients have consistently returned, which reflects the quality of care I provide. Now that I’m in Texas, I’m eager to continue my work and offer the same level of dedication to your furry friend. I’m a full-time security guard working late afternoons to 6 AM from Saturday to Monday, which gives me plenty of free time during the week for dog sitting. My fiancée helps me with dog sitting, ensuring your pup is never alone. Before I head to work, I’ll make sure your dog gets a morning walk and bathroom break, and I’ll send you a picture to keep you updated. You can trust that your dog will receive the care and attention they deserve when booking with us. Rest assured, your dog is in good hands with me. I provide daily updates and photos so you can see how your pup is doing. Many clients even request videos to watch their dogs enjoying the day. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities, and I’m committed to keeping you connected while you’re away.
“John did an excellent job taking care of my dogs, Sadie and Artax. He was punctual, friendly, and communicated perfectly throughout the entire process. It gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing my dogs were in good hands while I was away. I truly appreciated the updates and professionalism. I would absolutely recommend John to anyone looking for someone reliable and trustworthy to care for their pets.”
“Bhumi is the best! I asked her to show up a little earlier and she was able to do so. I SO appreciate her flexibility and the feedback she gave me regarding her visit with Tomato! I would soooo keep using her and HIGHLY recommend!!! Thanks Bhumi!!”
“She is AMAZING one of my cats is not usually open to anyone and she was able to break her and get pets in cause my Naevia is shy and comes around on her terms. Joanna followed all the instructions left and then some and she showed my babies so much love. My Hunter just adored her! I have another trip coming up and I am hoping I can book her again!! Thank you so much Joanna!!!”
“Kimberly did a wonderful job with our Ruby girl. She went out of her way to make sure Ruby had her daily walks, even with the rainy weather. Ruby gets very distressed when we have to leave town without her, but thanks to Kimberley’s attention she was the calmest and happiest she has ever been while we’re away. Thank you, again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Farmers Branch
Maria is absolutely wonderful with our cats! She goes above and beyond every time—our cats adore her. She plays with them, gives them plenty of affection, sends the BEST pictures and updates, and even helps tidy up after them around the house. She is dependable, and we always have complete peace of mind when Maria is taking care of our cats. We couldn’t recommend her more and will continue booking with her whenever we can! ❤️
Lily was fantastic! This was my first time utilizing a sitter for my elderly dog. We arranged an introductory meeting and all of my worries and concerns disappeared. I was able to enjoy my vacation due to Lily’s loving care and detailed correspondence on a daily basis. I will definitely seek her out for services in the future!
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!
Dasia is great, punctual. She gets to know your pets. She asks questions instead of guessing when it comes to caring for your baby. She keeps special instructions documented in notes. I received daily pics of Little Lola. I am definitely comfort with Dasia watching my dog again! I’m glad I found her. She is great!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Farmers Branch on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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 .
As of August 2026, there are 9,422 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Farmers Branch. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Farmers Branch 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.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
