About: I've been a foster carer for various greyhound organizations here (ATX and DFW) and in Australia. I get the hounds that are cat safe and get them used to living with cats. I'm always fostering, which is why I cannot take in more dogs for sitting, but I can do pop-ins. Before I fostered greyhounds, I used to petsit for friends' parents. I love to scritch ears, make up stupid songs for them, and play on the floor. My current pack consists of two sighthound mixes and two middle-management cats. Am I Katy or Mary? Both. The joy of going by either the first name or the nickname. You can call me Katy. The IRS can keep calling me Mary ... and please, if you're from IRS, don't call me. I am currently working from home and would love the excuse to get out and walk or, when it's really too hot, engage in play in the backyard. I am mindful of the various personalities I could encounter. I understand that not all pets want to play. Some want to chill and know that you're there. Others need to get that energy out. When doing pop ins, I would be mindful of what their humans say.
“Hannah stepped in to take care of our newly diagnosed diabetic kitty. She administered medicine and sent photos to make sure we knew he was doing good! We are so appreciative that we found her!”
About: I am a 19-year-old dog and cat lover with 8 years of experience caring for dogs. I have experience with potty training puppies, dog walking, and daily grooming such as brushing fur. I am patient, reliable, and passionate about providing loving care for every pet. I can also administer medication if needed. While I’m currently saving toward purchasing a car, I have reliable transportation options available and am more than happy to arrange a ride to and from your home when needed. Transportation won’t stop me from being there for you and your pet, and I’m always willing to make the extra effort to provide dependable and loving care. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I currently have a flexible schedule while attending school. I’m available most weekdays for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. On weekends, I have the most time and flexibility, so I’m especially available for overnight pet sitting and can dedicate more time to providing attentive care. Although I’m currently saving toward purchasing a car, I have reliable temporary transportation options and can arrange transportation to and from an owner’s home when needed. I’m committed to being dependable, flexible, and attentive to each pet’s needs while making things as convenient as possible for their owner. I do not offer pet care in my own home, but when caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, comfort, and routine. I always make sure pets are in a secure environment and closely supervise them during walks and activities. I believe it’s better to be safe than sorry, and I will treat your dog with the same love, care, and attention that I would give my own pet.
About: Hi, My name is Jessica and I have a cozy home for pets to come and stay for a night. I already have two lovable dogs of my own and also two lovable cats that get along well with others. I have had my oldest dog for 5 years now and my oldest cat for 14 years. I love having a full house and pups to hang out with while I am at home. I work from 8-5 and gym regularly. My boyfriend works at night so it's just usually me and my pets every night and there's always room for one more.
“I was so impressed with Amalia's attention to detail and compassion for my baby, Fitty (my cat-son). Amalia made me feel so comfortable so I could really enjoy myself away. Thanks so much Amalia, you did a great job and I will be hiring you again!”
About: I am animal CPR and first aid certified, have 4+ years experience with animals as well as exotics. I have veterinary hospital experience, and am willing to take on challenging dogs/cats with no extra charge! I will allow price negotiation if needed :) I have open availability. If needed, I can even stop by at night to check on them, I’d never want to have an owner worried when I’m close by and can help! Whatever fits your fur babies needs, or what they prefer I will do! If reactive/scared, space is respected, but their needs will be fully taken care of+love from afar. If they’re a loving dog, who needs enrichment and extra love, I’ll match your fur babies energy!
About: I am a Certified Veterinary Assistant (CVA) with hands on experience in both clinical and shelter settings. I currently work at an animal shelter as a Veterinary Assistant. In addition to my veterinary training, I have volunteered for two years with Friends of Rescue Animals, assisted at PetSmart, and have volunteered with Animal Allies of Texas for over 3 years. I have experience with feeding routines, monitoring behavior/health changes, cleaning, and helping animals feel comfortable. I am confident handling pets of different ages, sizes, and temperaments. As a CVA, I’m trained to recognize signs of illness, stress, and discomfort, which allows me to provide attentive care. I currently work full-time (5 days weekly) but I am available all day Mon and Wed for any service that your pet will need. I can easily crate any animals if needed. I prioritize the safety and comfort of animals and following routines. I make sure pets always have water, are fed (according to owner's instructions), and get the exercise, playtime, and attention they need. I learn each pet's personalities, needs, and preferences when caring for them.
About: Hi! I'm Tiffany. I honestly love this gig… I get to watch sweet pups that bring extra fun, laughs, and heart-full moments! Pup therapy :) Brewster is my 7-year-old chihuahua mix and my 3-year-old Yorkie mix named Reese. They are both about 12lbs. Little Brew loves having another buddy or 2 to play with or new people to love on and it’s been an adjustment not having his brother to play and bond with. I live in a single story patio home with a nice side yard for dog running and potty, along with ample walking around the neighborhood. I also have a SMALL dog door that leads into the fenced in backyard but it’s small and only fits dogs under approx 30lbs or less. I do typically work outside if the home Monday-Friday, but I am able to provide dog sitting/boarding at my home and can be flexible at time with working at home if needed. The dogs are able to lounge and play throughout the house. Sleeping arrangements can vary depending on preference and how the dogs get along with each other :) I fully understand the need to find suitable care and right place for your 🐶 while we have to be away from them! I am here to help. I use Rover myself when I travel, so I try to see both sides and provide that in my service. I'm responsible, respectful, professional, good at communicating, and would love to help you out with your pet sitting needs. I go above and beyond to help your sweet 🐶 feel at home and comfortable while you are away. Brewster was a foster fail that I adopted a few years ago and he’s very go-with-the-flow and a grateful dog. He’s full of energy and loves to play and fetch! He and I love to take walks around the neighborhood and the local community dog park for play time. Reese is now potty trained and LOVES to play with his brother and be the life of the party. He does well with other dogs and is a very happy go lucky puppy. If I come to your home, I will make sure your furbaby is loved on, fed, walked and gets some fun interaction/play time each visit. If you are looking to have your pup do overnight stays with me at my home, I always try to arrange a meet & greet for new clients to make sure you and your dog are comfortable with the layout of the house, how they feel around me, and so you can observe how your dog and Brewster interact. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your pup or furbaby! Thanks for considering me! :) I am a full-time working professional out of the home Mon-Fri so this is a side gig. I can have pups visit for the day or for a stay. I have a small dog door (dogs under 20lb-ish) that opens to a fully enclosed private backyard with what I have coined a “dog run”. The dogs have mostly free rein to the couches and dog beds and other rugs or furniture they find to their liking. Weekdays I am home between 6-7pm and don’t venture out much. My pup (and of course yours) will get all sorts of love and attention and play time in the mornings, evenings and overnight or when I’m working from home. I treat all pups like they are my own in how I give them love and attention. Trust, love, and safety for your pets is a MUST! I want them to feel comfortable while I watch them. I follow all instructions or rules the owners share with me and communicate any issues or questions in a timely fashion.
About: I’ve had pets my whole life , I love them to pieces. I keep them active and will do as you’d like for your fur baby! I’ll take them for rides to the park if they love rides and or parks ! I can bathe them if need be! If they stay over night they can sleep in the bed with me. Just like a kid , if you don’t allow something then nor will I ! I have pets of my own so I ask that your pet be UTD on shots and not aggressive :) Look forward to updates and photos of your baby! feel free to contact me with any questions you may have ! Thank you and I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I love animals and have a flexible schedule, I work around you and your baby! Wether that be in your home or mine; they will have similar schedules. In my home: the garage is shut before the main door is opened. My yard is fenced and locked and they will never go out alone. I say that so you know your baby will not have the freedom to attempt escape.
“Kathleen was such a breath of relief! She not only put me at ease while being out of town but was extremely trustworthy and accommodating. Also, she was always willing to go the extra mile just to help out! Thank you so much K!”
About: I have 7 years of hands-on pet care experience and currently work in a veterinary clinic, giving me extensive experience caring for dogs with different personalities, ages, and needs. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, medications, feeding routines, walks, playtime, and providing attentive one-on-one care. I’m also experienced with recognizing changes in behavior or health and know when something may need additional attention. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while their family is away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always prioritize their individual routine and well-being. I work full-time at a veterinary hospital, so my availability varies depending on my work schedule. I’m typically available for pet care before or after work and have more flexibility on my days off and weekends. I’m happy to work with you in advance to find a schedule that works well for both you and your pet. I’ll always make sure your pet’s care and routine are a priority while you’re away. I prioritize safety, trust, and keeping pets comfortable in their own environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding, medications, walks, potty breaks, and enrichment. I make sure doors, gates, and other exits are secure and keep pets supervised appropriately. My veterinary experience also helps me recognize changes in behavior or health and respond appropriately if something seems wrong. I treat every home with respect and every pet with the same patience, attention, and care I would want for my own.
About: Dogs require more energy in comparison to other animals. I have taken care of and trained puppies to adults. I am specialized in feeding, grooming, bathing, and giving medications to dogs! I’m currently working a part-time job which leaves lots of room for animal care! I enjoy surrounding myself with loving animals and am always available to commute! As I will only be able to care for pets in clients’ home's, I feel as though respecting the clients requests and boundaries are the most important. Communication and building a relationship is the key to creating a loveable sitter for your pets!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Garland
Ryan went above and beyond. He had a difficult assignment. Both my cats are indoor outdoor cat. Also very sensitive to strangers. Max hid the entire time and he did not see him until end. Milo would not come inside and when he did he did not eat enough to satisfy Ryan. Milo went back outside. Ryan kept me posted on what was going on and would discuss option.
April was so wonderful with my cat! I was very worried about leaving him because he takes medication. But April's quick communication--and her love of cats--put me at ease. She was able to give him his meds without issue and sent me lots of pictures. I will absolutely book with her again!
I have tortoises. They are very special to me. Miranda step in and gave them attention they needed while I was away. She came every day as requested, cleaning the enclosure, giving fresh water, feeding them and just being there for them. My husband was pleased at how pleasant and thorough her visits were. I would definitely recommend Miranda for your peace of mind while away from your own pets.
Our 4, high-maintenance kitties were very well cared for while we were away. Yung was very thorough with her updates at each visit and was delightful to work with. She even cleaned up after our messy little kitties. Definitely recommend and would gladly hire again!
Maria was wonderful! She visited my home the night before our trip to meet my pets and learn a few things, which made me much more at ease about leaving for a week. She cared for my dog and cat, checked on my outdoor cats, and handled small tasks I hadn't considered, such as adjusting the house temperature when the outside temperature dropped significantly and then rose again. Thanks to her, I could relax and enjoy my trip, confident that my home was in good hands. I will definitely request to book Maria again when the need arises!
Desi was awesome! She dropped in every day, same time, and gave our two little independent kitty fur babies all the love while we were away. Litters were clean, kitties hair soft and combed, and all Amazon packaged on the porch brought it (lol). Highly recommend!
I could not say thank you enough to Cam!! She went above and beyond for our fur babies! And at a short notice! She made sure they were so loved 🥰 They may even love Cam more than us now! If you want to make sure your sitter goes above and beyond, book with Cam!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Garland is $11 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $28 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.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.

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 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.
