“Alyssa was wonderful! She had great communication with me while I was gone, and made sure to send lots of pictures. I will definitely be requesting her again!”
About: I’ve been around animals since I was little. I’ve always loved being around them!! This started out as something fun & quickly grew into one of my greatest passions. I’m currently in school online. My free time is used up by baking, cooking, or walking. I am left with plenty of free time so what better way to use it than to take fur babies on walks!! I think of our pets as humans. They’re loving, supportive, funny animals. All they show is love so why not show it back. 🐾 💕🐾 💕🐾
“First time using Rover and Ann. She was great, sent pics and answered all my questions and texts when I was worried. I will for sure use her again. Thanks bunches for taking care of my babies.”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 15 years of hands-on pet experience, and caring for animals is truly one of my greatest joys. I’m the go-to person for friends and family when they need help with their pets, and I’m always happy to step in with love, patience, and reliability. I share my home with one small dog with a big personality who loves playing with new friends and welcoming visiting pups. I work from home and my flexible schedule allows us to enjoy neighborhood strolls and park adventures, and I’d be thrilled to include your dog in our outings—or keep things calm and cozy if that’s more their style. In addition to caring for my own pets, my experience includes working with a local rescue group and fostering dogs from all backgrounds. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and needs, from bottle-fed newborns to senior dogs with complex medical issues. I’m attentive, compassionate, and committed to learning each pet’s unique routine, preferences, and quirks so they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while in my care. Whether your dog is here for adventure, snuggles, or simply a reliable companion while you’re away, I’ll treat them like one of my own and make sure their time with me feels like a home away from home. 🐾💛 I work from home, which means your dog will have plenty of companionship throughout the day. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine—meals, walks, playtime, and naps—so they feel comfortable, happy, and stress-free while in my care. I care for pets either in your home or mine, and I make it feel easy, fun, and stress-free for everyone. With experience from tiny puppies to wise seniors (and everything in between), I know how to create a safe, happy, and loving environment where your furry friends feel right at home.
About: Hi! A lifelong dog lover and proud pet parent to two miniature poodles. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your dog, which is why I treat every pet like part of our family. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and low stress experience where dogs receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and personalized care. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, routines, and special needs, and strive to make every dog feel at home while you’re away I offer dog walking services for dogs of all sizes and may have availability throughout the week depending on my work schedule. Boarding is available Thursday through Sunday only, allowing me to dedicate my full attention to the dogs staying in my home and provide a calm, family style experience. 🐾 Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I live in an apartment with a secure outdoor area for supervised potty breaks, along with regular walks and a structured routine. For boarding, I specialize in small and medium sized dogs and only accept one family at a time to ensure a peaceful environment and personalized care. Dogs must be comfortable sleeping in a crate overnight for safety and consistency.
About: I have grown up with many different dogs from chihuahua & yorkies to pit bulls & German Shepards. Therefore, I am comfortable, love & welcome all sizes! We also had 2 cats so I love them too! I currently work Monday-Friday 7am-5pm so I am available any time before or after to fit some dog walks or drops ins, in my schedule! Weekends are wide open-especially for boarding! I live in an apartment with no kids or other animals. I would treat your dog or cat as my own ❤️ if the big dog needs some walking time on trails that’s where we’ll be, if the small dogs want to stay at home and rest, we’ll watch tv on the couch together & vice versa for cats!
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs ever since I can remember. My dad and I trained shorthairs that have won awards. Any needs for your pets I will make sure they are met and your pet is well taken care of. I know our pets are our babies I have 3 dogs of my own and 4 cats of my own. I’m currently on summer break, so I have a super flexible schedule and plenty of time to spoil your fur babies with all the love, attention, belly rubs, playtime, walks, and cuddles they deserve! I’d absolutely love the chance to care for them and make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and treated like family while you’re away. 🐾💕 Your pets will be loved like they’re my own! 💕 I’ll treat your home with care and make sure your fur babies are safe, happy, and spoiled with cuddles, playtime, walks, and lots of love while you’re away. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind!
About: Beyond caring for my own pets, I have experience providing care for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and needs through family, friends, and word-of-mouth referrals. I’ve done everything from walks and meal time to bath time and giving medication (sometimes with a little persuasion and a lot of treats)! I am also an active volunteer with Saving Hope Rescue, which has strengthened my knowledge, reliability, and passion for animal care. I work part-time with a flexible, varying schedule, which allows me to fit in plenty of time for pet care during the week. I’m available for check-ins, walks, and pet sitting outside of work hours. I’ve also recently applied to master’s programs and look forward to continuing to make pet care a meaningful part of my routine alongside my studies. I provide care right in your home so your pet can stay happy and comfortable in their own space (no stressful changes needed!). I make sure they’re well-fed, walked, played with, and given lots of attention and affection. I also follow any specific routines or instructions closely—whether that’s meals, meds, or favorite game time rituals—so everything feels familiar and stress-free while you’re away.

“Heather is Amazing!!! She took great care of our Kitties. We love her communication and photos. She always does the extra mile to ensure everything is perfect. I highly recommend her.”

About: I have had a lifetime of experience having pets as well as volunteering & working for the Humane Society. For 10 years I fostered domestic pets & for 5 years I worked from my home for Texas Wildlife rehabilitation. I currently housesit & dog walk in my childhood neighborhood & have for the same family for 3 years. Im open to helping other families tend their animal babies while at work or on vacation. I love animals & helping families with a trusted pet Nanny service! I make sure to keep water fresh & clean, foods with accurate amount & frequency depending on you or your pets dietary needs. I provide plenty of one on one play & incorporate positive reinforcement in with playtime! I love to take dogs & cats if needed, on walks in safe areas & on safe routes (not by high traffic roads) in your neighborhood to help them with muscle memory on a safe route in case they ever needed that. I encourage animals to feel free & loved by playing a variety of games with them & keeping them focused on specific scratching posts, toys & good behaviors that make their bond with their own family healthier & more fulfilling for everyone!

About: I’m a lifelong pet lover and former schnauzer mom who recently lost my sweet girl. I also grew up with cats, so I’m very comfortable with both feline and canine personalities. I treat every pet like family—paying close attention to their unique behaviors, needs, and routines. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or needs a little extra patience, I make sure they feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. Ask me about puppy services! I’m off during the summer and have a very flexible schedule, allowing me to attend to your pet’s needs throughout the day. I can provide consistent care, attention, and companionship, making sure they stay on routine and feel comfortable. I tailor care to each pet’s routine and personality, keeping them comfortable and stress-free. I follow feeding, walk, and play schedules, provide updates and photos, and keep spaces clean. I’m respectful of your home and will not use household supplies. Bathing and brushing are optional and complimentary.
“Suzanne was able to help take care of my doggos on short notice! I’m very appreciative of her and her time, and of course appreciate that she was kind and gentle with my animals! :) Definitely recommend Suzanne!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Worth
Jacob was absolutely phenomenal taking care of our babies! From day one, he went above and beyond to make sure our dogs were well cared for, well exercised, and happy while we were away. He was incredibly attentive, detail oriented, and followed every instruction we left regarding their care. What impressed us the most was how quickly our dogs warmed up to him. Even though Jacob was a complete stranger to them at first, they took a liking to him almost immediately. His kind personality, gentle nature, and genuine love for animals made them feel comfortable and safe right away. It was clear from the start that he has a special connection with pets and truly enjoys caring for them. He kept us updated, paid close attention to their needs, and gave us complete peace of mind during our trip. Knowing our dogs were in such caring hands allowed us to relax and enjoy our time away. Hoping he enjoyed our dogs and continues to be our go to person! We will book with him always .
Paige was wonderful! She stepped in with just a week’s notice and was incredibly accommodating. She took great care of both of my dogs — including my puppy, Bella. Paige was kind, attentive, and communicative. I truly appreciate her reliability and flexibility. Highly recommend!
Lauren was absolutely amazing helping out with my pup! Took the time beforehand to learn about her personality and needs. Which one of those things being that she’s not a big walker so she happily switched to a quick walk but staying to play fetch with her. I was also traveling for work which had some last minutes changes that she was so accommodating too! I’m so lucky I found her on rover and would highly recommend!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Fort Worth 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 Fort Worth 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 Fort Worth with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

- 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.
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.
