About: Hi there! I'm dedicated to providing your beloved pets with the highest standard of care right in the comfort and familiarity of their own home. As an experienced and passionate pet sitter, I offer personalized attention, ensuring your furry, feathered, or scaled family members feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups and make them feel at home! I'm available for boarding on weekends. I have a fenced yard and playground for your pup, and a special pet room with Dog TV for relaxation. Two friendly dogs are available to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed.
“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 !!”
“Desiree did a wonderful job watching our two girls. One of which is very cautious of strangers. We will definitely be using her for dog sitting in the future and recommending to family and friends.”
“I’m so happy!!!Madelyn did an AMAZING job with our only girl! She is extremely attentive to shadows needs and played with her in the back yard as well. Shadow really liked her and I will be using her for overnights going forward as well!!”

“Hanna is fantastic! She is so friendly and communicates extremely well. She went above and beyond for our girls; spending extra time at our home, caring for our chickens, and happily accommodating our girls' quirks. You should absolutely use Hanna for your pet care needs...just not when we need her! :)”

“Jennifer was great! I was expecting someone to come by, love on our pups a few & make sure they had fresh water/were fed while we were out of town. She came to meet us/meet them before we left & brought treats for them. She also excerised them daily and truly cared about their wellbeing. Updates, good pictures, great communication...and even gifted them each a toy. Could not say enough about her.”

“Lori is amazing! She is super sweet and super understanding. She did wonderful taking great care of my fur babies while away and messaged me letting me know how they are with pictures. One of my fur babies is timid with new people but she was able to get her very comfortable quickly. They are my babies so leaving them was so hard but she made me feel so much better about the whole process. Definitely recommend her and will definitely ask for her help in the future.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Joshua
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!

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.

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.
