About: I’ve taken care of dogs basically my whole life. I worked in a vet clinic in Forney and worked in the doggy daycare at North Forney. I’ve cared for hyper puppies and old little ladies/gents. I’ve seen aggressive, scared, or super needy animals. I have the patience to care for any personality, and I have been trained to restrain aggressive animals as well. I honestly love animals and i’m looking to have fun with any type of pet that’s out there! I’ll be home and free for most of the summer as I am not doing online college until the fall. I will be a substitute teacher at Lewis Elementary in Forney coming the fall as well. I’m looking to have fun with all kinds of animals, friendly or not! I am very passionate and willing to work with any animal. I adjust myself depending on the animals personality. I know pets are like people, all unique in their own way. I know how to give medication, prevent dog fights, restrain both cats and dogs. As well as give simple shots. I’ve worked in a vet clinic for a few months about a year or two ago. I can say i’ve seen many kinds of animals, aggressive or not, and i’m willing to take care of any animal and their needs. I have my own car so if an emergency happened, I am able to take care of it straight away. I have always had a love and passion for animals, and I hope your furbabies trust me too!
“Kendra is the SWEETEST to my furbabies! She has given me so much peace while I’ve been away and has been communicating with me the entire time. I’m beyond grateful to her for her kind disposition and care for my babies. HIGHLY recommend. Look no further!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. Neighbors, family friends and family have relied on me to take care of their furry family members. As someone who has dogs of their own, I know how much your animals mean to you. I have had experience with puppies, all the way to older dogs. Although I work full-time, I still have plenty of time to care for your furry family members! I’m available for weekend drop-in visits and can stay in your home any day of the week to keep your pets comfortable and maintain their normal routine. I strive to make pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, provide plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, and ensure they always have a safe environment. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs and keep owners updated throughout my visits or stays.
About: I have had dogs my entire life and I currently have 4 and they are all different breeds and different sizes. I have 2 great danes, 1 black lab, and a mini Australian sheperd as well. I have good experience with pet sitting in the past of other households besides my own as well. I am going to play soccer on a team this summer and I will have free time to spend with your dogs and even overnight stay as well! I make sure I earn the dogs trust and then i make the dog feel comfortable around me in order to bond with the pet in the absence of their owners.
“I love working with Elle - she is positive and upbeat, and I feel a lot of comfort having her with my kitty. I will definitely work with her again!”
“Aleksandra was nothing short of amazing! We booked on a super short notice and we got so lucky she was able to visit our girl three times! Lots of photos, great communication, and very friendly! Will definitely be booking with her every single time we go out of town and hope she will be available.”
About: Pets bring joy, laughter, and unconditional love, and I’m here to return the favour! I’ve been the goto pet sitter for friends and family for years, and I treat every furry friend like family. I currently work online as a freelancer so I have plenty of time on weekdays and weekends to care for live on and walk your beloved. I also currently am traveling, so I may not live in your area but visiting the area. I care for your beloved pet in their home with love and care, by making sure they are safe, and feel love while you are away. I make sure their environment of clean and they are fed and get the same routine as they are use to.
About: Ever since I was old enough to walk around on my own, we have had pets in my household. I got my very own dog when I was 6 years old, and have had constant experience with them since then, so around 12 years. I have pet sat friends and family members’ pets before, including cats. Mostly, I love pets! They really make our lives better in so many ways. I’m currently in high school, graduating in 15 days. I can take care of pets from 3pm and after Mon-Thur, and all day Fri-Sun. I can stay over at your house on any night of the week, and feed the pets in the morning before leaving for school. I can feed pets, let them out, walk them, play with them, you name it! I currently have three dogs of my own who are senior citizens (11yrs), so I have experience with young and old pets.
About: I’m a great individual that has a lot of experience taking care of fur babies. ranging from big doggy’s to little dogs and puppies. Cats as well, many different breeds. Not only I care for these fur babies I make sure they’re SAFE & Happy! (: Pet care currently fits in my life 7 days a weeks as I’m a stay at home mom and I don’t go back to Uni until the fall. I offer great care and updates on any fur baby. My home is a pretty spacious 2 story home and a fenced back yard. I have an animal door leading right to the back yard as well. The neighborhood I live in also offers a park and sidewalk in the whole neighborhood making it safe for daily and nightly walks. (:
About: I have taken care of many dogs through out my years from small chihuahuas to Great Pyrenees. I currently own a German Shepherd, Blue Heeler and two Great Pyrenees that I love with all my heart. I have experience with many breeds and also with training dogs. I can potty train them and teach them a few discipline skills like sit and stays and also teach them funny tricks. I have always loved animals and I want to use this opportunity to experience more with animals as a future veterinarian. I believe becoming a dog sitter will help me have more experience with getting to know different dogs. I honestly believe this will be a fun experience to meet new people and their beloved pets.
“NaTia was professional, caring, responsible and a very nice person. She kept us informed during the drop in visits and sent photos of our dogs during each visit even though they refused to look at the camera. She truly whethered the storms to ensure they were okay. Thank for taking such good care of my pups on short notice.”
About: With over 15 years of experience in private pet sitting and personal dog ownership, I have a deep love and sense of consideration for animals. For two years, I have been dedicated to providing high-quality care through Rover, building a reputation for reliability and attentiveness. Pet care is my only commitment, so I am available for those that need more than the technical pet sitting: drop ins through the day and stay overnight. I have stayed with elder pups who could not be alone longer than 1-2 hours. So, I can be as available within my bookings as much as I am needed. Outside of pet care, I lead a quiet, home-centered lifestyle. This translates perfectly into attentive overnight care for animals that thrive in a peaceful, calm environment. Pet care is my sole professional commitment, allowing me to be fully present for your companions. My long-term goals include finding community through pet-related events, pursuing volunteer opportunities, and eventually establishing my own dedicated care business. Everyone receives specialized interaction suited to their personality and energy level: For dogs, activities often include decompression/sniff walks, backyard play, and relaxed companionship like porch sitting or quiet couch time. High-energy pets receive engaging play and mental stimulation, while seniors or sensitive dogs receive slower, confidence-building interaction and low-stress movement. For cats, there could be wand play, chase-and-capture sessions, window or bird watch enrichment, brushing (if enjoyed), and calm social time on their terms. Between activities, I prioritize rest and normal household rhythm so no one is overstimulated or unsettled. I also maintain the cleanliness of pet areas and keep the home secure and lived-in (for overnights/extended stays).
“Carly was amazing from the start! It was my first time using Rover and she helped me with the steps on the app. Always so pleasant and helpful. I could hear and see her smile through the messaging. She offered to do a meet and greet which was perfect. Our cat took an immediate loving to her. Carly even gave us some helpful tips for our cat. Pictures and updates each time made us feel comfortable being away from home. Looking forward to booking our next vacation knowing our pet will be in the best hands and care. Don’t hesitate to book Carly for your fur babies! You will love her too.”
“Jennifer made a great impression with her first visit. Arrived on time, followed all instructions for taking care of my cat for several days. I could tell from the pictures she sent that Kitty trusted her. I will definitely use Jennifer again”

About: I have cared for many dogs since I was 8 years old. I have always been a lover of giant animals even the smallest (exotic too). My principle language is Spanish, I am studying English every day so this job can also be a source of great help for my learning apart from doing what I love the most. take care of animals Currently I work in my spare time, since I study and work but I have enough time to take long walks in the park and in my study moments I would always be with your pet so I would never be alone I let the animals explore the place, because we are not so many people at home but if I have a dog that is very affectionate and playful, even if your dog does not like this type of company, you can let us know beforehand to be prepared

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Forney
Carla was wonderful! One thing I really appreciated was that she makes it a priority to meet your pets before booking. It gave both me and my dog a chance to get comfortable with her beforehand, so it didn’t feel like a stranger was coming into my home. My dog is very protective and usually takes a while to warm up to new people, but Carla was incredibly patient and respectful of his boundaries. She gave him the space and time he needed to get comfortable on his own terms, and I’m so grateful for that. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again! 🙏🏼
Amanda did a great job with my fur babies. My dogs have bad separation anxiety and can take awhile to warm up. She was so patient and took the time to let them come to her. You could see in the picture updates my doggies growing more relaxed each day. I will definitely be using her again for doggy sitting. Thank you so much!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Forney stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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 Forney 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 .

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.

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.
