About: I have experience with taking care of dogs and cats. When my neighbor is out of town or when my grandmother had a dog, I have full responsibility of taking care of their pets. This includes feeding them their respective food, taking them outside to either play with them or go for a walk, taking them outside to take care of their potty business, and even run races with the dogs to see how fast they can go! I am always in a energetic mood when I'm around pets and am more than happy to provide my service to them. I make sure that I follow specific instructions carefully and precisely in order to satisfy my clients and to ensure high efficiency for the pets. Throughout the year, my work schedule is very flexible, allowing me time to spend with your furry friends! I am available Monday-Friday after 5 PM and Saturday and Sunday after 1 PM. Please let me know if there is anything else you are curious to know! My pets are all indoor pets. I pride myself in making sure that my pets and the client’s pets are in a safe and secured environment while allowing for lots of fun and leisure time! When I’m out walking outside, I make sure to always have any pets on a leash to ensure their safety and the safety of others.
About: With several years of experience caring for pets of all kinds, I offer a compassionate and reliable approach to pet sitting. From dogs and cats to birds and small mammals, I understand the unique needs of each animal and tailor my care accordingly. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just ensuring your furry friends are comfortable and safe while you're away, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My commitment to creating a positive and stress-free environment ensures that your pets will feel loved and well-cared-for, giving you peace of mind while you're gone. I currently work from home, spend most of the week here and have 2 dogs of my own that are super friendly and great with all other kinds of animals! I have a large fully fenced yard that has privacy, lots of toys and a spacious townhouse with lots of toys for cats and dogs inside as well! I treat my pets with love and respect and make sure they’re well taken care of and will make sure the same applies to any animals I’m responsible for!
About: I have had a passion for animals since I was 6 years old. I have decided to follow my passion and become a veterinarian.. I am currently in school for veterinary assistant. I am going to work my way up to become a veterinarian. I have 2 dogs, 3 cats, and 2 parakeets. I have a very flexible schedule. I am available to work from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Saturday. I do know how to do CPR on dogs, and I do have transportation, so I am willing to take pets to different locations to run and enjoy rather than to the same scenery if that is something desired by the owner. I am also willing to take pets to any appointments, if the owner has a busy schedule. I currently work PRN, so I have more than enough time on my hands to take care of your fur babies! I'm pretty accommodating, so just communicate your needs. When I am caring for pets in the client's home, I will follow the schedule/ duties that the owner would like for their pet. If the owner has set expectations it is my job to fulfill them.

With my flexible schedule I am able to work any day. I currently have one cat in my home and live in an apartment. I have many toys and tricks to make your pets comfortable with me.
About: I love all animals and have grown up around them my entire life. I have a sister that does rover and I have only heard good things about this Im definitely looking forward to loving on any animals that someone wants to let me help watch! Any time I work remotely and I have my kids every other week so if someone needs a night shift or during the day anything works for me I have a wide open space around 1200 sq foot condo and I have a nice area to walk dogs or a second spare room for the cats to chill in! Also have a cat climbing area inside

About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember, and I’ve grown up taking care of my own pets, as well as those of neighbors and friends. I’ve had experience feeding them on a schedule, playing with them, and letting them outside regularly. I’m currently on summer break, so I have a lot of free time. I’m usually available most days to take dogs for walks or check on pets. I will take care of your pets and treat them with love and care, ensuring they are happy and well-fed, as well as your home, which I will maintain with respect and cleanliness.

About: I’ve cared for animals for more than 25 years and have had dogs for most of my life. I currently share my home with Sylvia, my rescue Australian Cattle Dog (Red Heeler). My experience includes dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—from playful puppies to senior dogs and from laid-back companions to high-energy working breeds. I grew up on a farm and am comfortable caring for a variety of animals. I enjoy building trust with each pet and providing the attention, structure, and companionship they need to feel safe and comfortable. Special Skills * Positive reinforcement/basic training * Oral medication administration * Experience caring for a certified therapy dog (child-focused) * Puppy care * Senior dog care * High-energy breeds * Shy/anxious dogs * Multiple-dog households * Following detailed feeding and care instructions * Regular updates and communication with owners Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I am a teacher, so during the summer I am home full-time and fully available for boarding, daycare, drop-ins, and walks throughout the day. I am able to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I enjoy having dogs as part of my daily routine, and they are never just “checked on” briefly—they are included in a structured, attentive, and calm home environment. During the school year, I maintain a predictable schedule and can accommodate early morning, evening, and weekend care. In my home, I provide a calm, structured, and dog-friendly environment where safety and comfort are the top priorities. Dogs are supervised throughout the day, and during the summer I am home full-time to provide consistent care, attention, and routine. My home is a one-story space with a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor breaks and play. Dogs are welcome on furniture and are treated like part of the family, while also having access to quiet areas for rest or separation if needed. I follow each pet’s specific routine closely, including feeding instructions, medications, exercise needs, and behavioral preferences. I take a careful, respectful approach to introductions between dogs and ensure everyone is comfortable and safe. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect the home, follow all instructions closely, and prioritize the pet’s routine and comfort. I also provide regular updates so owners always know how their pet is doing.

Professional and pleasant Rover. Taniah was local and available for a short notice reservation where our regular Rover was unavailable. Taniah met with my two dogs in advance and arrived promptly leaving many updates and pictures. I was relieved to know my most precious furbees were in safe hands. Thank you Taniah, will definitely book again and recommend to others.
Amaya has watched our senior dog Akira twice while we’ve been away on trips, and we couldn’t be happier with her! She’s reliable, caring, and does a great job taking care of Akira. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing Akira is in good hands while we’re away. We really appreciate Amaya and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets!
I have an 11 year old large breed dog with multiple health problems and Rachel takes excellent care of him, often managing multiple medications and maintaining his complex schedule with competency and care. She truly loves him as if he's her own fur baby. She also takes great care of my plants. I have known her for 9 years, and she is extremely reliable and trustworthy. He's the only person I'd trust him with. It's so nice to be able to relax knowing he's in good hands. The peace of mind she provides when I'm gone is so valuable!
Ashley took wonderful care of my husky, Koko, while i was away for almost two weeks. She went above and beyond by fitting twice-daily drop-in visits into her busy schedule while working a full-time job, and i felt confident that Koko was in great hands. Ashley made sure Koko got walks around the neighborhood, plenty of attention, and excellent care throughout our trip. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Koko was happy and well looked after. We would absolutely book Ashley again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, caring Rover sitter!
Jennifer, is God send. I had to go out of town on short notice & she took such good card of my bunny while I was away. He doesn’t always open up to people but he really warmed up to Jennifer. She was consistent with the times she dropped in so he began to look forward to her visits. She was very thorough and very quick & easy to communicate with. I highly recommend her to amyone looking for care - she’s really sweet in person too! I will definitely rebook in the future.
Marisol was the absolute best with our fur baboes. She gave us daily reports and pictures to let us know how they were doing. She was easy to get a hold off and great communication. Also she followed instructions we left very well to assist with our babies. I would highly recommend her with you for baby needs.
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 .

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.
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!

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 .
