About: Hi there! My name is Lauren. Some helpful things to know about me is that I have 5+ years experience in animal care. I've worked at animal shelters and as a manager at a pet daycare/boarding facility, I also have done pet sitting and dog walking on my own in the past. I've recently moved to the area and want to continue working with animals. I am responsible, reliable and will treat your pets as if they were my own. I love to send lots of updates and pictures so you know your pets are well taken care of. I have just recently moved to Alvarado and left my job at Operation Kindness Humane Society because the commute would of been too long. So my schedule is very open as of right now while I look for another job. I have a large yard, however it is not fully fenced. If you'd like for your pup to come to my house I would walk them to go potty. I also have 2 dogs that are dog friendly so if your pup likes to play they will get along great. My dogs are fully vaccinated and up to date all all shots and preventions. For your baby to stay with me I would need to see vaccination records, just to make sure everyone is safe and healthy. If you'd prefer me to pet sit at your home I am more than happy to do that as well and stay consistent with the daily routine you have with your animals. This is usually my preferred way, as it is less stressful for your animals to be in a familiar environment.

About: I’m a retired educator and animal lover with the time and flexibility to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, and care. While I’m newer to professional pet sitting, I’ve cared for my own animals for years, completed two long-distance puppy transports from DFW to Charlotte and Los Angeles, and have repeat sitting experience with my cousin’s two dogs. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable and patient caring for your pets and home. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, whether that means walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or extra cuddles. I’m also comfortable giving basic medications if needed. What sets me apart is that I have the time to truly focus on your pets and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I also believe good communication matters, so I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind. I’m retired, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to devote to caring for your pets. Because I’m home most of the day, your pet would receive lots of attention, companionship, and supervision rather than being left alone for long periods. I can easily work around your pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, playtime, or quiet time. My goal is to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed by keeping their routine as consistent as possible while you’re away. I understand that trusting someone with both your pets and your home is a big decision. I will always treat your home with respect and care while making your pet’s safety and comfort my top priority. I pay close attention to routines, instructions, and any special needs to help pets feel secure and stress-free in their familiar environment. I’m dependable, calm, and attentive, and I believe in keeping owners updated with regular communication and photos so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away.

Jasmine did a great job handling our three dogs while we were out of town. She always arrived on the schedule we asked her to, provided their food/medicine when they needed them, and sent us pictures along the way. I would highly recommend Jasmine as your petsitter. We will use her again, she did a great job!

About: Experienced dog and cat owner with wide-open daytime availability. Dedicated to safe, fun neighborhood walks and attentive drop-in visits tailored to your pet’s routine. I am currently a stay at home fur baby mom. I can take your babies schedule and bend mine around it to create as little disruption as possible in a possibly stressful time. As a gentle, calm, and naturally patient animal lover, my top priority is creating a stress-free experience for your pets in the comfort of their own home. Because I have a highly flexible schedule, I am able to arrive on time, maintain your pet's exact daily routine, and give them my undivided attention during every drop-in visit and walk. Safety and trust are at the core of how I operate. Before leaving your home, I double-check that all doors, deadbolts, and gates are entirely secure, and I always ensure your pet is safely settled inside. I am highly attentive to specialized health and dietary details. In my own life, I manage strict feeding schedules for my two cats—including one with specific food allergies—so I completely understand the critical importance of keeping diets separate, cross-contamination-free, and precisely measured. Additionally, I am fully comfortable and experienced in accurately administering oral medications and pills to both cats and dogs. I use a soft, encouraging approach to keep them completely comfortable and happy during the process!

About: I have worked for two doggie daycares in Texas along with interning at a vet clinic and working for a pet sitting company in Colorado. I also took multiple animal science And veterinary medicine classes in highschool and am a wildlife major in college. I have had dogs and cats since I was young and have experience with SubQ fluids, insulin injections, transdermal medications, and intramuscular injections. I have loved working with animals since I can remember, it is a passion I love and getting to hang out with so many wonderful animals is like a form of therapy to me. Personally I spend multiple hours a day loving on and playing with my own kitty here at home. His favorite time to play is after his post meal groom sesh and I clean his litter box every night. As far as pet sitting, I'd like to fit in 3 days of pet care into my summer routine to keep me active while also meeting new people and their not so human babies. Even if I don't have anything for the day I am happy to take last minute visits to help people out and make sure their babies are cared for. In my home my pet comes first, he gets his dinner before I've even started cooking my own. When he wants to play he gets his play time and I always check to make sure his water is fresh and clean multiple times a day and his litter box is cleaned every night. I also make sure that after our play session he gets a few toy options so he can entertain himself if he gets bored before the next play session. When I am pet sitting I always account for all pets first and then make sure water is refreshed or refilled. I then get onto feeding or any medications that may need to be given And while the babies eat I clean any litter boxes, pee pads, accidents or anything of the sort unless it is a hazard then that is first priority. Lovings, of course, is given throughout the whole process and playtime is given at the end unless my client deems a different order is followed. I try to stay as close to their normal schedule as possible.

My booking was last minute and I wasnt able to get my usual sitter, however Heather saved rhe day. She did an amazing job with my babies! She made sure to keep in contact when she would be delayed even if by 1 hour. I really appreciated the open communication. The food area was clean and the litter box did NOT smell. Wonderful job!

Sara was hands down the best we have used off Rover. She showed up promptly as discussed left the best messages and pictures on the cards and loved our pups as her own ! I usually have such anxiety leaving our pups so we take less trips due to this but we trusted her reviews and she did not disappoint!! We will forever use Sara as long as she is on Rover ! I would even plan my trips around her availability to make sure she was the one watching our pups ! Thank you Sara for your great care you took of our pups you are the best !!

Miranda was fantastic! My dogs are incredibly anxious so I've been hesitant to go out of town and have someone else care for them. Miranda was patient and understanding, and everything went great! My cat is currently having some medical issues and is defecating every where but the litter box. Miranda was very understanding as we try to figure out what's going on. She gave me the ability to take my kids on vacation and know that our pets were well cared for. I highly recommend, and will use again in the future. Thank you!

If you want your pups to come home healthy and happy she’s the perfect sitter. Thanks for taking such good care of our pups again!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Joshua

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Joshua on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 2,908 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Joshua. 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 Joshua 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 Joshua 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 Joshua with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Joshua. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
