About: I have 9 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities! I’ve always had a huge love for animals and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, maintaining routines, and giving pets plenty of love and attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that every dog has different needs, and I’m happy to provide personalized care to make both pets and their owners feel at ease!

“Alyssa is the best! She took care of our 70 pound male GSP who has a lot of energy for 8 full days. We had great communication with Alyssa and she sent pictures during the time we were away. This was our first time using a sitter for that long of a time so we were somewhat worried but Alyssa made us feel very comfortable. We definitely recommend Alyssa and will use her services in the future. Thanks Alyssa!!!”

About: I’ve had cats for the last five years and have the most experience with them. I’m an animal lover and can’t wait to give your babies all the loving while you enjoy your time away. Happy to also care for small to medium sized dogs. I currently work part time so I have a ton of flexibility with my schedule to meet the needs you have for your babies. Can make mornings or evenings work any day of the week. Because I live in an apartment, pets cannot come to my home, but I can do both drop in visits or stay longer term in your home based on your needs.
“Erin is by far the best and nicest pet sitter on Rover! She made sure my dog was taken care of, we got pics twice daily and she communicated frequently with me! 100% would book again! Thank you again, Erin!”
“Taylor was absolutely amazing with our dogs and cat!! She stepped in last minute to take over a cancellation and was super on top of it! It was such a relief to have her watching them because she does well with high energy dogs like ours. So thankful!!”


“Abigail has been an absolute blessing to our family! She comes by twice a day to care for our two puppies, Dodi and Libi, making sure they’re fed, have fresh water, get plenty of potty breaks, and (just as importantly) have time to play and burn off some puppy energy. It’s obvious she genuinely loves animals. She’s patient, attentive, and goes above and beyond what’s expected. In fact, she’s even taught Dodi and Libi how to “shake a paw,” which was such a fun surprise! What has impressed me just as much is how kind she is to our cats. She has taken the time to get to know them, and it’s clear they trust and enjoy her company. Knowing that all of our pets are receiving not only excellent care but also affection and attention has made a world of difference. Because of Abigail, I can go into the office with complete peace of mind, knowing my animals are safe, happy, and well cared for. That kind of trust is invaluable. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, compassionate, communicative, and truly treats your pets like family, I recommend Abigail without hesitation. We are incredibly grateful for everything she does and look forward to continuing to work with her!”

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 Little Elm 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 .
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 , 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 .
