“Mia is our trusted sitter for our 5 cats and dog, Beau! She is passionate about animals and communicates so well - she makes us feel better knowing our pets are in good hands! She found all five cats and took photos for us - that is a feat! Appreciate her so much.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I can remember! I grew up with a small Pekingese in the house and now I have a 3 year old Lab pup named Zara. Since then I have taken care of many more pets, breeds I’ve worked with include Labs, Goldens, beagles, bulldogs, pugs, landseers, pit bulls and mixed breeds. I’ve done lots of baby sitting alongside pet sitting, while taking care of the baby I would also take care of the pet in the home! I would take them both on walks, feed them and play outside! I also have experience with senior dogs, last year I took care of Waimea, a senior golden who had eye problems, I would feed her, give her medicine and cleanse her eyes. I also have experience with Cats! I currently work fully remote on my own schedule so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! As well as obviously the weekends! In my home we have plenty of space for your dog! We have lots of space, a big fenced backyard and my house is located in the waterview community which has access to parks and trails for long walks!
About: So I have many years with particularly small and medium sized dogs. Have a 12 year old rat terrier who looks as adorable as when I got her. She’s my baby. Would love to start watching other dogs for extra $$$. I’m not currently working , so any time any day is fine. Until I find something better. Just let me know ahead of time all the details. I take dogs or cats out for walks. Clean up after them outside or inside. Would prefer them to be house trained but ok if not. Can house sit as well for as long as needed.
“My fur baby who is normally standoffish around all new people took to Brittany right away. Brittany is very patient with her and provides daily updates. I would definitely use her again.”
“Keri was incredibly patient with my no so easy babies! I also appreciated the in the moment updates as I was a little nervous as this was my first time trusting anyone other than family to care for my babies! I’ll totally book her again!”
About: I have a cat that I absolutely love! I treat all animals with kindness and respect and take great care of them. Growing up I had a dog for 16 years. As a former SPED teacher, I treat other people’s kids and pets with kindness and respect! I am a mom of two children, and also a fur baby! Being a teacher I have summers off so I mostly available in the summer. I am also available to help working professionals during weekday evenings and weekends. I have a yard enclosed with a fence so I’m happy to take care of your pet in my home. I have a home in Wylie Texas with a fenced yard for your pet! I am also able to come to your home and take care of your fur babies. I can keep water and food clean and take care of your pets. Bathroom needs.
About: Hey there! I have a good while of experience and honestly prefer dogs over people. Your pup gets my full attention and a massive, safely fenced one-acre front and backyard to run free. I promise 100% dog-focused love, safety, and nonstop fun! I am currently working part-time as medical assistant and am willing to adjust my schedule to care for you pup! My weekly work hours are from 8am-5pm on depending days! I have a fenced front & backyard (very spacious) I do have a friendly Great Pyrenees in the back yard that is fenced in, loves to have doggy friends around!
“Mary did an amazing job! While we were on our trip, several states away, our AC broke and Mary went above and beyond to look after our pets while we tried to coordinate a repair. With all that stress, knowing someone was doing such a good job looking after our pets was so appreciated.”
About: I grew up with dogs. Not just in my household, but in my cousins’ and grandparents’. I learned from a young age how to take care of dogs. These past 4 years especially, I have started pet sitting for friends and family alike. I can walk, bathe, and play with dogs. I also know how to administer medication, if needed. I am a big lover of animals. Any animal under my care is automatically going to be treated with the utmost care. I am currently on summer break from my college classes. The only time I would not be able to pet sit or walk would be Wednesdays from 1:30 to 2:30. I have a fenced in backyard. I do have a pool, but I will never leave your pet unattended in the backyard. I have a cat, but she can easily go into the main bedroom comfortably.
About: I have worked at Petsmart before. At Petsmart we are required to know what makes a dog comfortable while at a public place or somewhere other than home. I have watched over puppies 2 and 3 months old for my in laws a couple times now. My parents got a kitten that I helped take care of till I moved out about 10 months later. I own a chinchilla which is an exotic small animal. I’ve had her for a year. I’ve been fascinated by pets since I was a child and always do my research before taking care of an animal. I look forward to being of assistance. I fluctuate between part time and full time. I’m usually free tuesdays, wednesdays, and thursdays. I can schedule the time off if it’s 3 or 4 weeks in advance. I usually work mornings except for mondays, when I work evenings. I can always visit the pup or kitty during break and then spend the rest of the day with them after work. This will most likely be temporary until I can get a solid schedule here or at Home Depot. My apartment complex is very pet friendly. My building is only a few steps away from a dog park inside of the complex. The clubhouse has dog treats and I can provide as well based on age and diet. I will always ask any questions about what you would prefer for your fur baby. I have a chinchilla that stays in a cage as long as your pet is around. She is curious and will not hurt your pet even if they stick a paw in between the bars, which is hard to do anyways. My living room is a large space for any pet. I’m currently working part time, but I’m willing to do weekly stays with 2-3 weeks in advance notice. I also will require meet ups before every service in a public place. This is not going to be required for existing clients. I live in an apartment so I don’t currently own any pets, but everyone in my direct and extended family either has, or has had one that I’ve grown up with. I’m very familiar with animal routines and attributes. If something is bothering your pet, I will notice. I always keep in constant contact with whoever I petsit or help take care of for anything I may notice. Most of the time it’s things owners are already aware of, but I’ve always found it never hurts to ask and inform.
About: My name is Rylie and I’ve spent my life caring for and loving all animals. I worked at a boarding facility for over three years, and have experience caring for all different breeds, ages, sizes, and temperaments! I’ve also had many dogs throughout my life ranging in sizes from teacup poodles to great danes! I currently have a dog and a cat; to keep me from getting more, I’d love to dote on yours! It’s my dream to open an animal sanctuary so spending my free time caring for your babes is near and dear to my heart! I look forward to meeting you and your fam soon! I work remote so my hours are pretty flexible! Let me know what you and your babes are needing and I am sure we can make it work! Every dog is different but all require love and attention! I will cater to your pup individually! We can play with toys till we're tired or we can spend all our time snuggling!
About: I've had dogs all my life and cats for a few years (my mother-in-law lived with us 30 years). I don't consider them pets--they are family. Presently, we have 4 dogs and a 55 gallon aquarium. We live in the Shores and I'd like to stay close (Rockwall/Heath). I'm retired, so this is a fun way to spend some time. Having used pet sitters myself, I understand the importance of having someone, you can trust, enter your home and ensure your pets are fed, water, and given ample rest breaks. I'm retired, so I have plenty of time to devote to pet sitting. When I commit to a job, my focus is on that job and to provide topnotch care for your baby. I will meet with you to get information on how you care for your pet(s). My goal is to treat them just how you do to minimize disruption for them, while providing you peace of mind. I know how it is to trust someone else with your best friends, so my goal is to allow you to be away, without worry. You can live life knowing that you will come home to your fur baby just as you left them.
“Amanda was excellent! I would hire her again in a heartbeat. She was excellent with her pups and very good at communicating updates and information to us while we were out of town.”
About: Hi! I’m Kaitlyn, a lifelong animal lover who understands that pets are family. I currently have a sweet, calm, and friendly dog named Hazel who gets along wonderfully with other dogs and loves having furry friends around. As a self-employed entrepreneur, I have the flexibility to create my own schedule, which means I’m home often and able to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter environment, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I’ll treat your furry family member as if they were my own! I have dog sat for years on the side, and have plenty of older and new referrals I’ve helped in my neighborhood and surrounding neighborhoods. new to Lavon so I’m looking for more clients over here! im currently working from home, full time right now so I have full range and a backyard. I can keep the dogs company all day and send many photos while I’m watching them. (It’s what I prefer when I have anyone watch my dogs so I am more than happy to do it!) ! We have a huge backyard and I will take them on walks and I have a huge bag of balls to play fetch with, and give them all of the snuggles of course! All dogs welcome on couch/ furniture :)

About: I have taken care of multiple types of dogs including beagles, Chiweenie, mini pin, golden retrievers and more. I love all types of dogs and they love me. I currently work full time from home so I will easily be able to walk your dog. I like to take walks on the Katy trail if that’s what you live near. I will walk your dog either with a harness or a leader. I have trained multiple dogs to be able to walk without pulling. I would like to meet your pet once before our walk so we can get to know each other. I will ensure your pet stays hydrated on our walks.
“Nora did a great job looking after my dog. Last min before Thanksgiving, Nora was gracious enough to accept our drop in request. Nora was professional and showered my dog with love during her drop in visits. If you need any service, she’s the one.”

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lavon 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 Lavon 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 .

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 Lavon 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.
