About: I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether it’s going on long walks, sticking to feeding routines, or giving extra cuddles, I treat every dog like my own. I’m patient, dependable, and pay close attention to each pet’s unique needs. I am a currently a junior at the University Of Texas At Austin! I like to spend my long winter and summer breaks from school watching over cute dogs (including my own dog Kobe!) When I care for pets, their safety and comfort always come first. Whether I’m in my home or a client’s, I make sure the environment is calm, secure, and pet-friendly. I keep a close eye on doors, gates, and anything that could pose a risk to ensure every dog stays safe. And they get to play with my dog Kobe!!

About: I've been taking care of dogs and pups since I was 12. I grew up with them and trained them. I'm a huge dog person and love getting to know their personalities and needs.

About: Taken care of pets most of my life, animal shelter kennel worked at, and always pets at home and for family. and care for them ,as they are family. I'm retired, so i have allot of flexible time.in the day and early evening's .Times and date are always work able into the day, of course.

“2nd time booking for Sophia’s service. Simply the best! I can leave my babies at home in peace. She is compassionate, very caring and sweet to my cats. I’m a loyal client already! I’m about to book another visit from her.”
About: I’ve been caring for other people’s pets for years. All through college, I watched dogs and cats for friends and family, and when I worked at a vet clinic, I gained even more experience. I’m comfortable administering all kinds of medication, including pills, liquids, and injections. I especially enjoy caring for older pets and those who may be a bit anxious. They often do best with patience and a consistent routine, and that’s exactly what I provide. During every stay, you’ll receive regular photo updates, along with notes on how your pet is eating, playing, sleeping, and handling any medication. I like to keep each pet on a daily schedule that closely matches their normal routine at home to help them settle in more comfortably. I work from home, so I’m here with the pets throughout the day. Guest pets aren’t left alone for long stretches, and I can stick to their regular times for meals, walks, potty breaks, and medication. My own pets already keep me on a set daily routine, and guest pets slip right into it. Each day has a steady rhythm of morning and evening meals, yard time, walks, play, and rest. In my home: My back yard is fully fenced, and I check the gates and fence line regularly. Guest pets share space with my two dogs and one cat, so every guest must be friendly with both dogs and cats. Before any first stay, I do a meet and greet so everyone can get to know each other. New guests are introduced to my pets slowly and are supervised until I know they all get along. At night, pets are kenneled for safety. Food, medications, and cleaning supplies are stored where pets can’t reach them. In your home (drop-ins): I follow your instructions for feeding, medication, and litter, and I double-check that doors, gates, and locks are secure before I leave. After each visit, I send a photo and a short note on how your pet is doing. Health and emergencies: From my time at a vet clinic, I’m comfortable giving all kinds of medication, including injections, and I know the early signs that a pet isn’t feeling well. Before each stay, I collect your vet’s contact information and any health notes. If anything seems off, I’ll contact you right away, and I’ll take your pet to the vet if needed.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kennedale
Arianna has been watching, walking and doing drop in visits for our anima for almost a year and she's just the best!!! This last visit we happened to have another dog visiting, and a little intimidating by looks - but within minutes she was smitten by Arianna just like our pets too!
Sonia did a great job with her 3rd time watching my dog for me with check ins, and even made sure to clean up an accident that he had in the house which was very appreciated and above and beyond, will use her again in the future and would recommend her to anyone!
I reached out to Maci with a short notice request for drop-ins and was worried about him because it’s the first time I’ve had to leave him for extended periods. Maci has made this such a great experience for both Avi and myself, and she goes above and beyond during the visits! I really appreciate her and highly recommend to anyone needing care for their dog!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Kennedale is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 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. 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 5,578 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Kennedale. 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 Kennedale 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 Kennedale 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.
