“Shana is amazing with Louie. She has been a lifesaver as I’m not able to get home to snuggle Louie over lunch! Thank you so much for everything you do! I will be booking every week :)”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats my entire life and truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I currently have two German Shepherds and four cats of my own, including a Sphynx cat, so I’m comfortable caring for a variety of breeds and temperaments. I provide dependable in-home pet sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, allowing your pets to stay comfortable in their familiar environment while you’re away. I’m experienced in administering medications, following special care instructions, and maintaining your pet’s regular routine to help reduce stress. I also worked at a veterinary office during high school (2005–2006), where I gained hands-on experience with animal handling, basic care, and recognizing when a pet may need extra attention. You can count on me to treat your pets like family and provide regular updates for your peace of mind.) have a flexible schedule and can provide dependable care for your pets in the comfort of their own home. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the week, including weekends when needed. I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine and your scheduling needs. I believe pets are happiest in their familiar environment, so I provide attentive care in your home where they feel most comfortable. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, fresh water, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and plenty of affection. I’ll also respect your home, keep things tidy, and send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in caring, reliable hands.
“Ava was absolutely amazing, I was extremely nervous to use this service but in the end Ava made things do comfortable and kept me well informed the entire time. She was on time and did a great job!”
“Anran was great for my two kitties. Very reliable, punctual, and responsible. Went out of her way to clean things in my apartment and go get supplies from the store without me asking. Would 100% hire her again and would recommend her to friends. Thanks, Anran!”
About: With over 30 years of experience as a devoted dog owner, I’m the go-to person for friends and family when it comes to pet sitting, house sitting, and more. I absolutely love dogs and treat every pet as if they were my own. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs, including those with health concerns that require daily medication. I frequently dog sit puppies, helping with basic training commands like sit, lay, shake, and stay. I’ve also cared for multiple dogs at once, ensuring each one receives the attention and care they deserve. Daily walks, playtime, and a loving environment are guaranteed. Dogs will have access to a doggy door for indoor-outdoor freedom, and I make sure all pets are safely crated at night for their well-being. When I step out, I love taking dogs along for car rides and errands to keep them engaged and happy. I also provide daily photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while your pet is in my care. Their happiness, safety, and comfort are always my top priorities! Pet care is naturally integrated into my daily and weekly routine. Since I have the flexibility to work from home, I’m able to provide constant supervision and companionship for the dogs in my care. When I go into my office in Dallas, I can bring pets along with me to ensure they’re never left alone for long periods. If I need to step out for something where I can’t bring a dog, I always make sure they’ve gone potty before I leave, then safely crate them for their comfort and security until I return. However, if a dog can join me for errands, I love bringing them along for car rides and outings to keep them engaged and socialized. This balance allows me to provide attentive, loving care while ensuring each pet feels safe, happy, and included in my daily routine. My approach to pet care varies based on the service provided, ensuring each pet receives the attention and care they need in a safe and comfortable environment. * House Sitting – When caring for pets in a client’s home, I maintain their regular routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care they require. I also ensure their home is secure and well-maintained while they’re away. * Boarding – In my home, pets enjoy a loving and structured environment with access to a decent-sized backyard for playtime, a doggy door for indoor-outdoor freedom, daily walks, and plenty of attention. At night, I crate pets for their safety and comfort. If I step out, I make sure they’ve pottied before crating them and return promptly. If they can come with me, I take them along for outings. * Dog Walking – Whether a quick potty break or a long stroll, I tailor walks to each dog’s energy level and needs, ensuring they get proper exercise and stimulation. * Daycare – For pets staying during the day, I provide a fun and engaging environment with playtime, socialization, and personalized care based on their needs. No matter the service, I prioritize safety, comfort, and plenty of love to make sure every pet feels happy and secure.
“Shatara was GREAT!!! She took care of my fur babies as of they were her own. She kept in contact with me and called/Text me of she had questions. I HIGHLY recommend Shatara!!! Thanks do much!”
About: I’ve had animals my whole life and have taken care of other family and friends pets throughout the years. Your pet will be spoiled with me. I work during the week, but have the flexibility of being home starting on Thursdays late afternoon or early evening and remain home through the weekend. My community has a dog park for small and big dogs which is a fun walk from my home. I also have a covered patio in my backyard.
“Not only did Elyssa answer a last minute request for help, she went above and beyond. My senior dog had an accident and she was quick to help get it cleaned up. My dogs have weird food requests, and she didn’t even give it a second thought. I so appreciate Elyssa and the help she was able to offer me, and the love she showed my sweet boys!”
About: I got a dog just recently and I love her as if she's my own daughter. I am a better person because of her, and I am so glad that I rescued her and gave her a home with so much love and attention. I do a lot of work at home stuff on my PC as well as a lot of Doordash, Instacart, etc. when I am not busy at home. I am very flexible and care about giving humans and animals a sense of safety when dealing with me. I tell them and show them what I do as well as have an open conversation about everything upfront. I honestly like getting to know people first before doing business.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Forney
She is amazing! My cat is very shy and scared of new guests, but she made him comfortable. I was away for a few days and needed a pet sitter, she was great with every check in. Sent pictures daily and updates when needed. I would definitely book again! Totally recommend :)
She was very professional and polite. Easy to talk to. I really felt like she knew was she was doing and was comfortable. She asked all the right questions and was comfortable with everything we asked for especially the cameras. My wife was uneasy but Sarah didn’t bat and eye. We showed her where the food was and everything and she took note. I received photos and little updates of every check in. She was very thorough.
Heather was a pleasure to have watch our pups! We requested for drop-in visits while we were out of town and were so glad we had Heather watching our pups. She was very communicative, gave us updates/pictures, was very friendly and also super thoughtful for picking up dog poo in the yard for us without us asking. She's super kind and was very trustworthy with our pets! Highly recommend!
Carly was great during the week of drop-in visits. She met the dogs ahead of time and established rapport with them. Carly was very punctual and during the visits she played with the dogs and gave them ample bathroom breaks, along with sending detailed updates and pictures through Rover Cards. I would highly recommend Carly for any pet sitting services!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Forney is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 and $33 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 5,136 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Forney. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.

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 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.
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.
