About: While I’m new to professional pet sitting, I have lifelong experience caring for animals and a deep love for dogs. I currently have a 5-year-old Goldendoodle who I care for daily, including walks, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. He has helped me learn patience, consistency, and how to understand a dog’s individual needs. I’ve also cared for a guinea pig and have been around dogs my entire life, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities and energy levels. What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like family. I’m attentive, calm, and focused on making sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while in my care. Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine. I work full time from 7–4, so I’m available in the evenings for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I also have full availability on weekends, which allows me to provide extended care, boarding, and extra attention when needed. I’m committed to making sure pets are cared for consistently and feel comfortable while their owners are away. I provide a safe and caring environment for pets in my home. I have a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time and always follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding, routines, and any special needs. I also have my own friendly dog, which can provide companionship if appropriate, helping visiting pets feel more comfortable and at ease. I prioritize safety, structure, and a calm environment so pets feel secure and well cared for at all times.
“Jacqueline is so caring with our two dogs. She ensures they are well taken care of when she watches them. She does a great job of keeping them entertained so they are nice and tired when we return!”
“Chloe did an amazing job watching our two boys. Our dog Michael, has high anxiety but had a blast with Chloe. If the dogs made messes, we have no idea because Chloe was sweet enough to clean it up for us. We came home from a week trip to happy boys.”
“Daniel was amazing! We have one very hyper rescue and a brand new rescue and we were worried about leaving them alone for the first time together. Daniel was just what we needed and took such good care of them. He came several times a during the day and spent a lot of time with them when he came...and during the holidays too! I would highly recommend Daniel to take care of your furbabies. We will definitely be booking him again for next time!”
About: Hi! I’m Vincent, a lifelong dog lover and proud dog dad to two dogs. One is 14 and the other is 7. Caring for them every day has taught me how important consistency, patience, and attention to detail are when it comes to keeping pets happy and comfortable. I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, potty breaks, administering basic medications if needed, and making sure each dog gets the attention they deserve. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to make them feel safe and at home while you’re away. I’m dependable, organized, and treat every dog as if they were my own. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, well cared for, and getting plenty of love and attention. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing on the couch, I’m happy to match their routine and make their stay as stress-free as possible I work full-time during the week, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care before and after work, as well as on evenings and weekends. Caring for my own two dogs is already part of my daily routine, so adding walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention for your pet fits naturally into my day. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every animal as if they were my own and take the time to learn their routine, feeding schedule, and any special needs before each stay. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and shared with my two friendly small dogs who are used to being around other pets. I supervise introductions carefully and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and regular updates while you’re away.
“I highly recommend Bree to watch your dogs. My dogs were taken on multiple walks and were all tuckered out by the time I got home. I received very detailed updates for every drop in and several photos as well. Bree is awesome!”
“Really appreciated her she was great and my animals loved her. I was so nervous leaving my dog because she has super bad separation anxiety and had never been with out us before, but she was great with getting her to go outside and giving them all lots of love! Definitely recommend! :))”
“She took great care of our two cats while we were out of town. She followed our schedule and instructions for their needs perfectly and gave us detailed regular updates. I felt that they were in great care with her and didn’t have to worry about anything while we were gone!”
“Thank you as always for taking good care of our dear Cléo - we appreciate your story accounts of her adventures with you greatly, keeps us from missing her too much 🥰🥰 she loves her bff Miss Vicky!!!!”
“Dubelsa is awesome! She helped to take care of my bunnies while I was away. My bunnies are not the easiest to take care of since they are very easily scared. Dubelsa was very patient and texted me with their conditions and pictures during the drop in visits. I'm very satisfied with this experience and I'll definitely book again with Dubelsa ??”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for pets by providing daily feeding, fresh water, and maintaining clean living spaces. I regularly walked dogs, ensured they received enough exercise, and monitored their behavior to notice any changes in health or mood. I also helped with basic grooming tasks such as brushing fur and bathing, which kept pets comfortable and healthy. Through this experience, I developed patience, responsibility, and a strong understanding of how to meet the physical and emotional needs of animals. Pet care would fit well into my schedule because I can plan feeding, walks, and check-ins around my daily responsibilities. I’m able to manage my time effectively, making sure pets receive consistent care, attention, and exercise while still keeping up with my other commitments. I make sure I give them a reasonable time to relax and make sure they are let outside and have access to anything they need. I would also give walks based on the animals needs.
“Breanna was so great with Bentley! She was on time, fed him, let him go potty a few times and played with him! It was just what he needed! :) I will definitely be using Breanna in the future and you should too!!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life. Growing up in the South on a farm, I was always the one bringing home the injured, the sick, the pregnant, and the forgotten animals who needed a little extra love. Over the years, I’ve fostered everything from newborn puppies to seniors needing daily medication and gentle routines. I’ve helped care for expectant mothers and raised bottle-fed babies, so nothing about puppies, kittens, or specialized care is new to me. Now, as a veterinary technician, I work hands-on with dogs and cats every day in a medical and professional setting. From rehabilitation and post-surgical care to general wellness, I’m confident and comfortable caring for pets in any stage of life. I work part-time as a vet tech, which means my schedule is very flexible. I receive my work hours far in advance, so I’m able to plan ahead, adjust when needed, and make room for your pet’s routine. Whether you need weekday help, weekend drop-ins, or more consistent care, I can usually accommodate it. Just let me know what you’re looking for, and we can make it work! Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities, whether they’re staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, comfort level, and personality so they feel secure and understood. I keep a clean, calm environment, follow all medication or feeding instructions carefully, and never rush interactions—especially with seniors, shy pets, or animals recovering from surgery. I watch for subtle signs of stress or discomfort, use positive reinforcement, and make sure every pet gets plenty of affection, attention, and reassurance. My goal is simple: to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and completely cared for, every single visit.
About: I’m a pet mama to an active Border Collie, and a super chill cat, so I know exactly how to cater to different personalities. Regardless of whether your pet needs a good workout session, or quiet cuddles, I’ve got you covered! Growing up around animals naturally led to years of caring for the pets of family, friends, and neighbors. I'm completely comfortable with specialized care, from strict routines to administering medications if your pet isn't feeling their best. Leaving your fur babies with someone new can be stressful, I know. It’s very important to me that they feel safe, loved, and at ease. I will be patient and compassionate to your pet as I would with mine. My schedule is flexible. I’m happy to hang out with your pet for walks, play time, drop-ins, or last minute requests. Reach out and connect with me, I’m always glad to help out. I understand how important it is for your pet to feel secure in their space. When I visit, I keep things calm and respectful, never rushing or overwhelming your pet. I follow instructions carefully, use positive reinforcement, and ensure your pet is comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I always treat your home and pet's routine with the same respect I’d want for my own.
“Jaleeya is absolutely amazing! She knows dogs so well and handled everything so considerately! She pays attention to all the details and was so helpful in caring for our dog. She is the best!”
“Jazmin is 10/10! Absolutely incredible and professional across the board. She treats our pets as if they’re her own. She also goes an extra mile to keep us updated and sends up pictures of them! Highly recommend!!”

Frank stepped in when a last minute cancellation left us without a dog sitter. Frank was fantastic with communication, prompt with his visits, and detailed with the updates. Our Nala loves him. The first morning we were back, I’d swear she was sitting at the door looking for him… We will definitely recommend Frank!!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Little Elm stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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 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.

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 Little Elm with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
