About: Hello from Dr. King and Mr. Walker! Dr. King is a working veterinarian who graduated in 2024 while Mr. Walker grew up on a large cattle farm, caring for various animals of all types. We can care for animals of various sizes, exercise requirements, dietary restrictions, and even help with prescriptions or additional medical circumstances. We live 10 minutes from multiple pet-friendly parks, so inquire about park visits. We also have two dogs of our own who can provide a raving review! Feel free to contact us with your request today! Our work schedules vary day to day, but someone will be available at whatever times you need. Let us provide the services you need when you need them. We focus on providing pets with ample exercise and outdoor time. Our home provides enough space for animals to roam and also provides enough sleeping space to house even the largest of pets.
“From our meet and greet to keeping us up to date on our pack…Maya was above our expectations! We booked her last minute due to an issue with a former pet sitter. She was impeccable in her timing for our request, responded quickly and put us at ease during our meet and greet. She made it easy for us to be able to keep our plans and put us at ease with her vast experience. No doubt Maya will be our go to from here on out!”
“Aimee took great care of our 13 yr old Pappillion! We would definitely use her in the future. Always on time and willing to help. Works will with you on care for your animal! RG”
“Gary is awesome! Even during the meet and greet I felt safe with him dropping in my home to check on Bella. He kept me up to date on how things were going with plenty of pictures and a video and ensured that other directions were followed such as closing the blinds and leaving a certain light on. I will definitely be using Gary again!”

About: Local TCU student who loves animals. I did Rover all summer, and now that I’m back I’m campus I’m looking to continue walking dogs! I’m responsible, easygoing, and will treat your pets like my own! I’m currently home for the summer working a part-time job and looking to fill the gaps with pet care. I already take care of my energetic Duck Tolling Retriever, so I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding, and general care. Attention to your pet, routines, and instructions are my top priority! I make sure they’re fed on time, get plenty of attention and exercise, and feel comfortable and relaxed. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of the space, keep things tidy, and always make sure doors, leashes, and gates are secure. My own dog is always on the move, so I’m used to staying aware of things like open doors and food left out.
About: I grew up taking care of puppies and rescues with my mom, and then moved into helping at a shelter while I was in college. As a grad student and current renter, I can’t have pets of my own so am glad to have the chance to get some cuddles in with yours. I'm happy to work with dogs of all ages and sizes and follow direction well if you are working with any training techniques. I have a soft spot for older dogs in particular and am also happy to look after any plants. I currently attend KU as a grad student where I teach two days a week and am focused on finishing my thesis this semester. I have a fairly flexible schedule and so can maintain a consistent routine for most pets while you’re gone. I’ve traveled a lot and been fortunate to be a guest in many people’s home. I pride myself on being respectful and leaving a house at least as good as I found it. I also try to prioritize pet comfort since I'm a guest in their home too. I try to let them lead interactions so they have a chance to warm up on their own level. I'm also happy to respect household rules and uphold the boundaries the pets are used to (ie., if they're not allowed on certain furniture). If you have any plants that need care while you're away, I love leaning into my green thumb too.
About: Hi there! I'm dedicated to providing your beloved pets with the highest standard of care right in the comfort and familiarity of their own home. As an experienced and passionate pet sitter, I offer personalized attention, ensuring your furry, feathered, or scaled family members feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups and make them feel at home! I'm available for boarding on weekends. I have a fenced yard and playground for your pup, and a special pet room with Dog TV for relaxation. Two friendly dogs are available to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed.
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my entire life of various sizes- from Pomeranians to mastiffs. I also have experience dispensing medications to animals. I am currently looking for a work from home job and am using this for extra income- I’m able to devote my entire time to your pet! I take careful note of instructions for each pet and treat them like my own while also understanding that I am doing a job and treating homes with respect.
“Brianna is amazing!!! She was able to jump in last minute to take care of my dog and I am so grateful! My dog loved her immediately and things went perfectly. She sent lots of pics during her visits and I appreciate that so much!”
About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life and enjoy playing/walking with them! I currently have 2 amazing kitties that keep life interesting. I love animals and respecting their boundaries when shown. I hope to love your babies as much as I love my own! I am currently in school so afternoons/evenings are prime pet time! I have open Fridays and weekends for any needs you have! I've got you covered! I respect your pets' space and will act accordingly to any rules set. If needed I can grab food or other supplies so there are no worries. Any messes your pets may make, consider them taken care of!
About: I’ve been caring for pets for most of my life and have hands-on experience with daily routines, walks, feeding, and companionship. I’ve had my dog, Echo, for the past eight years, and both of my dogs are deaf, which has given me extensive experience with patience, nonverbal communication, consistency, and special-needs care. I’ve also had cats my entire life, so I’m very familiar with their unique personalities, routines, and individual needs. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I work full-time as a paralegal, which has helped me develop strong time-management skills and reliability. I maintain a consistent schedule and am intentional about planning pet care around my workday, ensuring pets receive dependable attention, timely walks, feedings, and check-ins. I’m communicative, punctual, and happy to coordinate schedules in advance so your pet’s routine stays as normal and stress-free as possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home or during walks, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I follow all feeding instructions, walk schedules, and care preferences closely, and I pay careful attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort. I’m experienced with administering basic care, providing enrichment and companionship, and ensuring safety at all times—especially for pets with special needs. I also keep owners updated with regular messages and photos so they can feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for while they’re away.

Adrianna has been extremely amazing. She communicates very well and ensures that’s she provides the best service possible. My apartment stays clean, my dog had a great routine, and I knew he was well taken care of. I’m going to miss her as she goes to school but can’t thank her enough.

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 Forest Hill 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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Forest Hill choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Forest Hill with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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 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.
