“Min Q. went above and beyond taking care of my Beaux. She was very nice and kept me up to date with updates daily. i would highly recommend her services,”
“Another trip for us, having James to take care of our 3 Boxers. All went really well, James is always checking in and out at each visit, and very responsive if we needed to ask anything. James is calm, not afraid of our Shiloh being an Alpha male pretty intense, and could manage Papi being needy, and Morgan being shy and difficult to approach. We found our sitter for our next trips for sure!”
“Elle was a real joy and a pro. She was extremely communicative, upbeat, and easy to work with. She has a passion for animals, particularly cats, and got to know my two very quickly. When exchanging keys - because of my mistake - Elle had to come out and meet me twice, which she did without complaint. Eye made the process simple, and I left on my trip with complete confidence that my pets, and even my home, would be in good care. I highly recommend Elle and will even be booking her service during the Thanksgiving holiday so I can visit my sister. I had high expectations, and Elle exceeded them all. Could not be more satisfied.”
“Avery was amazing! Incredibly friendly, and my dogs loved her! She helped watch my dogs through drop-in visits, and she was fantastic. Her updates were so thoughtful and consistent, and she exceeded expectations in sending me pictures that helped assured me that my dogs were doing okay. I’ll absolutely be contacting Avery next time I need a dog-sitter!”
“Nicole did an amazing job taking care of our 3 cats while we were away. She was super thorough with her care and reports, and so attentive to my extra-needy guy. My shy guy even warmed up to her. I would not hesitate to book Nicole again.”
“John was a great friend to our doggo meatball! He followed all my instructions accordingly and insured meatball had proper care, play time, and fun during their visits! I would recommend John to any pet parents looking for a responsible person who communicates quickly to look after their pups! Thanks again John! We will be using you again!”
“Miki was the perfect walker. The reviews are not lying. My baby was walked, fed, and played with. Even though I had a friend stop by, she still stayed her entire time to spend with my baby. Miki promptly sent pictures and gave updates. It's the little things like that that makes a person stand out. As a first time user of this app, she eased my nerves about this process. I will definitely use her again.”
“Emily was an incredible cat sitter! She was extremely conscientious with making sure she was there on time, and both of our cats loved her! This was a pleasant surprise because our smaller cat is extremely shy and we didn't think she would even come out. However, the little one warmed up almost immediately to Emily. Emily gave great sitter notes and took lots of pictures for us. We would not hesitate to book Emily again, should the need arise.”
“Adrienne was great with my 2 dogs! They both took to her immediately and her communication was great about how the visit went. She also sent lots of pictures and I can see that my dogs were very comfortable with her. She also has experience with dogs with a more special needs because my older gal has cancer, and has had a major surgery and she was very attentive to all of that. I will be using her as often as I can!”
About: Hello! I know it’s hard to trust your fur babies with someone, but I want to relieve that tension. I have experience walking dogs of all sizes! I’ve stayed in homes with multiple dogs! As well, I have two of my own that go on daily walks and have very specific care needs! You have special instructions? Great! Tell me them and I’ll be sure that it gets done! I helped my grandad has a vet tech for years! I’m currently working full time remotely. I would love to spend my extra time helping anyone with their fur baby to make sure they get the attention and exercise they need! I have two dogs of my own that go on daily walks and have their own special needs. I will be sure to watch how your pet is moving to make sure they are having the best time that they can!

I really appreciate how quickly she responded and kept me updated throughout the trip. I def recommend her ! Book with her if you don’t want to worry about your fur babies while you’re away.”

This was our first time with Min, and she did a fantastic job with our 13 week-old Drusilla! Min followed our instructions to the letter, and had great communication and flexibility all around. She was very patient, taking her time to work with our somewhat reactive and shy large breed puppy. We will absolutely be using her again. Thank you Min!!
This is the second time Nicole has watched my boys, and I truly couldn’t be happier with her! She goes above and beyond every single time, and it gives me such peace of mind knowing they are in such great hands while I’m away. It’s clear how much she genuinely cares, and I can already tell my dogs absolutely love her. Nicole is reliable, thoughtful, and treats my boys like they are her own. She provides the kind of care and attention that every pet owner hopes for. If you’re looking for someone you can trust and want complete peace of mind while you’re away, I highly, highly recommend Nicole! We are so grateful to have found her. 🩷
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.
This was our first time leaving our dogs with anyone outside of family, and Matthew made the entire experience stress-free. He knew exactly what to share in his check-in updates and always kept us informed, which helped us feel completely at ease while we were away. He went above and beyond in caring for our pups and we are beyond thankful. It was clear from the updates and photos that they were getting plenty of attention and great care. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would absolutely book with him again!
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!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Garland on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 8,034 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Garland. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Garland 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.
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.

- 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
