About: As a full-time work-from-home professional, your pet will enjoy constant companionship and a highly predictable routine throughout the day. I specialize in providing attentive care for both energetic puppies who need consistent potty schedules and senior dogs requiring gentle pacing and precise medication management. My home is a calm, hazard-free environment designed for safety, and I intentionally limit bookings to one family at a time to ensure your dog receives my absolute focus, regular exercise, and undivided affection. As a lifelong animal lover with over 5 years of pet care experience, I treat every furry guest like a member of my own family. My goal is to provide a safe, high-energy, and stress-free environment tailored specifically to your pet's unique personality and daily routine. Whether your dog craves long, structured neighborhood walks, intense fetching sessions, or just a quiet spot on the couch for endless belly rubs, I ensure they receive constant attention, love, and mental stimulation. I am extremely detail-oriented, highly communicative, and will text you frequent photo and video updates so you can enjoy your time away with absolute peace of mind. Whether hosting your pet for a fun-filled staycation at my house or caring for them in the comfort of their own home, safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. In my home, your pet will enjoy a fully secured, hazard-free environment with plenty of cozy spaces, separate boundaries for safety, and constant supervision. When checking on or sitting at your home, I strictly respect your property, follow all security protocols, and replicate your pet's exact feeding, walking, and medication routines to minimize separation anxiety. I keep emergency vet contacts ready at all times and send frequent, reassuring updates so you always know your best friend is safe, happy, and loved.
About: I’ve always had dogs and cats growing up. I help out my friends and family with their pets when needed. I love playing and walking with pups. I can help with feeding and any special needs or quirks your animal may have. I work from home and love getting outside whenever I have the chance. I have a flexible work schedule and during the weekend I’m home playing with my dog! When going outside I would always make sure a leash is on if there isn’t a fence. Always be on lookout for glass or trash on the sidewalk.
“Angelica is absolutely wonderful! She really goes the extra mile taking care of my cats. She is caring and loving with my cats. I have used her for two years and wouldn't use anyone else!❤️❤️”


About: I’ve had dogs for most of my life and have raised my two pups from the puppy stage all the way into their senior years, so I’m very used to all the different stages and personalities that come with dogs. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, brushing, basic routines, and of course lots of love and attention. I’ve also dog sat for friends and family plenty of times, so I know how important it is to keep your pup on their normal routine and make them feel comfortable while you’re away. Whether your dog is super energetic, shy, cuddly, or just wants someone to hang out with, I’ll treat them like one of my own and send you plenty of cute updates along the way! I work a full-time office job Monday through Friday from 8 AM–5 PM. I work from home on Tuesdays and Fridays, which gives me more flexibility for daytime drop-ins, potty breaks, walks, and check-ins on those days. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, I’m generally available for visits before 7 AM and after 5 PM. On Tuesdays and Fridays, I can usually accommodate morning, lunchtime, afternoon, or evening visits depending on the timing and location. My weekends are very flexible, and I’m typically available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, longer visits, and pet sitting. I know pets are happiest when they can stick to their normal routine, so I always try my best to work around their usual feeding, potty, walk, and medication schedule. Feel free to message me with the times your pet normally needs care, and we can see what works best for both of us and your pup! I know how nerve wracking it can be to leave your pet with someone new, so I’ll always treat your furry baby like I would my own. I’m happy to follow any instructions you leave for feeding, walks, medications, routines, or anything else that helps your pet feel comfortable. I’ll also keep a close eye on their behavior and surroundings, make sure doors and gates are secure, and give them plenty of attention while you’re away. I’m more than happy to send pictures and little updates during each visit so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is safe, happy, and being well taken care of!
“Catherine was so patient and sweet with my pup, I felt very comfortable letting her into my home while I was away to give some doggie love and let her out to potty.”

About: I have taken care of animals since I was a kid. I know animals cues and behavior very well. I volunteer with DAS. I will take very good care of your furry friend!

I have a fenced yard and 2 crates if your animal needs to be crated. I have a large front yard and live in a very nice neighborhood for long walks.

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.

Matthew was absolutely wonderful! He was professional, dependable, and communicative throughout the entire experience.

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Garland is $26 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $30 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 7,488 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Garland. 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.
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 Garland 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 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.
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 Garland with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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 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.
