About: With over 40 years of hands-on experience living alongside and caring for animals, I treat every pet in my care like a cherished family member. My goal is to ensure your pets feel safe, happy, and completely comfortable in their own home while you are away. Lifetime Experience & Deep Intuition: Having owned and cared for pets my entire life, I naturally read animal body language and adapt quickly to every pet's unique personality and routine. Specialized Senior & Medical Care: I have personal, hands-on experience caring for aging pets and those navigating complex health journeys, including cancer. I am fully comfortable administering oral medications (pills and liquids) with a gentle, patient touch. Puppy Patience & Guidance: While not a commercial trainer, I have successfully raised and trained multiple puppies over the decades using consistent, loving, and positive reinforcement. In-Home Comfort & Security: By focusing exclusively on house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks, I keep your pets in their familiar environment—minimizing stress and giving you total peace of mind. My schedule is flexible so I am able to adapt to your pet’s routine. Whether they need early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight companionship, I have the time and dedication to make sure they get unhurried, attentive care every single day. I try to adjust my daily routine to mirror yours as closely as possible, keeping your pets on their familiar schedule for meals, play, and bedtime. Because I don't host pets in my home, my focus is entirely on keeping yours safe and comfortable in theirs. Your peace of mind and your pet’s safety are my absolute highest priorities. When you trust me with your home and your beloved pets, I take that responsibility seriously, ensuring a secure, stress-free experience from start to finish. Meet & Greets: Before any booking, I always meet with you and your pets in person. This ensures your pet feels comfortable with me, lets us review their unique routines, and allows us to establish your exact communication preferences. Meticulous Home Security: I am thorough when it comes to securing your home. You never have to worry: I double and triple check every door, lock, and gate before leaving your property. Consistent Communication & Photos: You will never be left wondering how your pet is doing. I send updates and photos with every single visit, keeping you fully in the loop so you can relax while you are away. Safety First on Every Walk & Visit: Decades of pet ownership mean I am always alert to surroundings, keeping dogs on a secure leash, monitoring for potential hazards, and giving your pets the calm, vigilant attention they deserve.
“My two fur babies did great with Jessica! I had a lot of confidence in her, from the initial “meet and greet” to see how she interacted with my kitties and review expectations/her personality, to our follow-up communication, and with the pictures of my cats she included in her drop-in visit pet reports. My more skittish cat even did well by coming out to interact with her during visits, which helped to put my mind at ease. In addition to all these nice dog related reviews, I recommend her to watch your cat(s) and I would use her in the future :~D.”
“Mckenzie is a perfect sitter for my senior kitty. She takes great care of her needs, plays with her, gives her lots of love and scratches, and takes great pictures. She alerts me if anything seems amiss or that I might been concerned about. When I'm away, I have piece of mind knowing my beloved pet is being attended to by Mckenzie.”
“Alexandria was great with our dogs! Was never in a rush, gave medications, and became fast friends with our pups. They communicated very well and the report cards were great. Loved the photos. Will book again.”
“I’m so glad Aimee was available to take care of my senior cat while we were out of town. In addition to all the necessary cat care services, she helped with a few extra tasks while we were gone. Mostly, she and my cat seemed to hit it off and I came home to a happy and well cared for kitty. I highly recommend Aimee!”
“Laurie was so awesome, she accepted my super last minute request and my baby got taken care of! She was extremely sweet and seemed to genuinely care about my dog! Will definitely rebook!”
“Can’t say enough about Hannah G!! She took great care our our fur babies while we enjoyed family time out of the country! She went above and beyond to keep us updated on our babies care with daily photos! I highly recommend Hannah for your Rover needs and we will definitely be repeat customers!! 🐶🐈⬛🐈”
About: I have grown up in a house that always had animals in it, especially dogs and cats. I have a few clients that I have been watching houses for— for years, I believe in making connections with your clients pets so there is no worry or stress between the pet parent and pet! I have lots of open free time as I am a freelance artist that works from home! So, in other words, I have my availability mostly open just need to have time to schedule I would be more comfortable in house sitting than boarding animals but for my own pets they are always inside, free roaming, only going outside when the dogs need to go potty!
“My dog is my BABY, so I am very picky with who I leave him with. I could not recommend Ariana more! She did AMAZING with my dog. She did drop in visits twice a day for 4 days while I was out of town. She walked him, feed him, took him on two walks a day and played fetch! She was so sweet to my dog and I could tell he was very comfortable with her. I got multiple pictures during each visit and a report cards of potty breaks/eating and drinking! Ariana took away the stress of being away from my boy. I have a Cat as well who is pretty self sufficient and has an automatic food dispenser so I told her she didn’t have to worry about taking care of him too; but she still gave him love and sent me pictures so I knew he was doing good! She watched my dog over the 4th of July weekend; I was worried about him being scared of the fireworks.. and she made a courtesy check in !!!!!!!!! She went out of her way (something I didn’t pay her for) just to make sure my dog felt safe and comfortable during the fireworks; which put me at ease. On the last day of her watching my dog, she had already made her stop for the day; I later noticed the AC at my house got shut off, she made another courtesy stop just to turn my AC back on so my dog didn’t get too hot!!! Her service is exceptional and I with DEFINITELY be booking with her in the future when I go out of town! Thank you SO much Ariana, I truly appreciate how sweet and amazing you were to my babies! Thank you for taking such great care of them and making both them and me feel so comfortable!!!!”
“Haven is great with our dog Luna. She came at the time requested and Luna loved play with her! Haven sent us a picture and video of them playing. Highly recommend and we will definitely call her again.”

“Emily was wonderful! She took great care of my dog while I was at work during the week. He's been having some problems with his eye and she was diligent in giving me updates and helping him any way she could. She even gave him a bath for me! Would give more than 5 stars if I could!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Kennedale
Haven is the BEST! She was our second attempt at finding a cat sitter and my cats took to her the second she walked in the door. She was able to stay for extended periods of time and do drop ins, even last minute. She has gone out of her way and we are so thankful for her!
Mckenzie went above and beyond for the care of our cats. One of the cats needed medicine, which she applied every day. At one point we had an ant infestation that got into their food and she went above and beyond to help us and the cats take control of the situation. She was a pleasure to meet and she was so kind to our cats that they ended up giving her lots of love every visit. We would give her 10 stars if it was possible.
Thank you Hannah, took care of our cats and sent pictures, we were concerned for our 1 cat Leo,as he is skittish and we're afraid he wouldnt eat, but Hannah adjusted a few things to get him to eat and then all went great, thanks again Hannah, I highly recommend her.
Maci was wonderful! She is highly communicative and always let me know whenever she was on her way to my house. She followed all instructions perfectly and provided regular updates complete with text and photos, which gave me total peace of mind. My cats look like they were well taken care of while I was away. Highly recommended!
Abby is a kind and attentive sitter. I was impressed by her level of communication and how proactive she is. Abby was able to get Leo to come out and play which is great because he and his brother can be shy. I highly recommend her to care for your fur babies!

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 Kennedale 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Kennedale. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
