“Jynna has been my favorite sitter. We’ve never met but in the pictures she sends, I can tell she gives my babies attention and great care. My big boy always looks happy with her.”
About: I grew up with dogs of all different sizes and breeds along with the sweetest cats. I showered them all with love and affection as well as playing and walking the dogs. I am available all day and every day! I can take care of your little or big fur babies anytime and provide the attention and care needed! I have a fenced yard with four dogs that love to run around and play in. They love to chase each other around and are quite talkative to one another!
About: Hi! I’m a local pet sitter and dog walker based in the Newark/Haslet/North Fort Worth area. I’ve been around animals my entire life; there has always been a pet in my home since I was about four years old. I currently care for one dog and five cats, so I’m very familiar with managing different personalities, routines, and needs in a multi-pet household. I also have hands-on rescue experience. In 2016, I lived with my grandmother and great-grandmother who were heavily involved in animal rescue and fostering, with my grandmother serving as a foster coordinator. I helped regularly with events, outreach, and caring for foster animals, including shy, anxious, and high-needs pets. I also assisted during Hurricane Harvey efforts involving animals. Because of that experience, I’m especially comfortable with anxious, timid, or slow-to-trust dogs. I understand how to approach them calmly and respectfully and allow them to warm up at their own pace. My goal is to support families by keeping their pets safe, comfortable, and consistent in their routines while they’re away. I focus on being dependable, attentive, and communicative so you always know your pet is being cared for. Pet care is a consistent part of my weekly routine, and I prioritize reliability, punctuality, and clear communication. For dog walking and drop-in visits, I am available Monday–Friday from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM, and weekends from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM during the summer season. I plan my day around being on time for visits and making sure each pet receives consistent care and attention. For house sitting, I am flexible any day of the week and adjust my schedule to match each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. My goal is to maintain stability for pets by keeping their feeding, walking, and companionship routines unchanged. I provide calm, structured, and attentive care in both my home environment and clients’ homes. For dogs, I provide regular walks, potty breaks, and structured play and enrichment. For cats, I focus on maintaining their normal routines, playtime, and a calm environment that supports their comfort and independence. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions exactly as provided, maintain cleanliness, and keep pets on their established routine. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident and informed while they are away. My goal in every setting is to reduce stress, maintain routine, and provide safe, reliable care. *I do not board pets at my residence. All services are provided in the client’s home.
“Nidia was amazing with all the accommodations for my cat while i was on a 4 day out-of-state trip. The communication was very responsive and Nidia was flexible in accommodating last minute changes. Will certainly go with her for peace of mind!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, literally since the day I was born. My experience spans dogs, cats, birds, horses, donkeys, goats, and rabbits, giving me a deep understanding of animals with very different personalities, needs, and routines. I began fostering animals at 12 years old alongside my mom, helping care for them and place them into loving forever homes. My first job was as an in home pet sitter, and I immediately fell in love with providing animals the consistent care, attention, and comfort they need while their families are away. For over 10 years, I managed a farm, which taught me how to confidently handle multiple animals at once, follow detailed care routines, and stay calm, observant, and organized in dynamic environments. While I have years of hands on experience, my love and respect for animals has always come first. As a pet parent myself, I understand the anxiety that can come with leaving your pets in someone else’s care. Because of that, I’m intentional about clear communication, regular updates, and treating every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pet is safe, loved, and in caring hands while you’re away. I’m currently working remote so my schedule always is very flexible. I can provide multiple potty breaks through out the day and I also enjoy taking pets on a mid day walk. I have a fenced in yard, two friendly dogs and a quiet neighborhood perfect for our daily walks. Crating is also available per your request.
“Hannah goes above and beyond to make sure our pups are all taken care of. Absolutely love booking with her and always feel certain our pups are in the best hands. She is awesome. Love the report cards and attention to detail. Thank you Hannah!!!”
“Amber was absolutely amazing when I was scrolling looking for someone I just got a great feeling about her I made the perfect Choice. I was away on a birthday trip 7 days, and she took incredible care of my cat, Arrow, the entire time. She kept in touch with me every day, sending updates and pictures that gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She made sure Arrow was well cared for, played with him, scooped his litter box, and even took the litter outside afterward to make sure my apartment stayed fresh which was great to come home to. She also took the time to let him drink from the faucet his absolute favorite thing! which showed me that she really paid attention to his personality and routines. On top of taking such great care of Arrow, Amber went above and beyond by bringing my trash can in and even putting my birthday flowers inside the house and in fridge to keep them fresh for me 🥹 It’s clear that Amber genuinely cares about the pets she watches and treats them like her own. Knowing Arrow and my home were in such good hands allowed me to fully enjoy my vacation. I highly recommend Amber to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and thoughtful pet sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Tyler treated my pup as one of his own. He took great care of my dog and the house. He was fantastic at communicating, was there when he said he would be, and was flexible. Highly recommend!”
About: I am a dedicated animal lover and proud pet parent to three fur babies of my own—Athena, Bellamy, and Octavia—who mean the world to me. As a full-time nursing student, I value compassion, responsibility, and attentiveness, which naturally extend into the way I care for animals. Spending time outdoors while caring for pets is something I truly enjoy, and I take pride in providing reliable, loving support for fellow pet parents. Monday–Saturday, 6:00 AM – 10:00 PM. Reliable, attentive, and dedicated. I treat every pet like my own fur babies, focusing on patience, safety, and keeping their routine consistent so they feel comfortable and loved in their home. 🐶🐱💛 I treat every animal as if they were my own fur baby, always prioritizing their safety, comfort, and happiness. My dog, Athena, is very friendly and enjoys meeting new companions, and I understand the importance of positive, safe interactions between pets.
“Ann was absolutely wonderful! She provided such thoughtful updates with photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. You can tell she truly cares and goes the extra mile. We’re so grateful and would happily book with her again!”
“Malexy did a fantastic job watching our two cats for a week! She was extremely responsive and prompt which really made us feel comfortable while out of town. She went above and beyond with her attention to detail and kept us well informed. We will definitely book again!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 10, currently we have a 12 year old dog, a 5 year old dog, and a 1 year old kitten. I’m very comfortable with cats, they’re very sweet. I’ve been dog walking for the past few years and worked with dogs of all kinds. I’m a teacher so I’m off for the summer! I’m pretty much available any day! I’m just trying to get some hours in this summer to work on my savings. I can stay with your pet for as long as you need and I will be able to crate your dog if you would like!
About: Hi, my name is Darian! I have three dogs of my own, two of them in their senior stage of life. I have been a dog sitter for almost ten years now, taking care of dogs around my community and family friends. I feel the best way to take care of your dogs is in your own household where I can keep them in their own routine! I would love to take your pups on walks around your neighborhood as well as doggy parks and other places with your permission of course! I am up for staying in your home (if you are on vacation) or dropping in every couple of hours when you need me to. Thank you for the opportunity to care for your sweet pups!
About: Lifelong pet owner and animal lover.

“We had a wonderful experience with our dog sitter! She took great care of our dogs and kept us updated while we were away, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our pups were happy, comfortable, and well cared for when we returned. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. We truly appreciate her reliability, kindness, and attention to detail. We would absolutely trust her with our dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable pet sitter!”
About: I have worked in a well renowned and amazing shelter & animal rescue (no kill shelter) for 5 years. I’ve got plenty of experience with both dogs and cats. I’ve also got certifications in fear free animal training, along with helping train many dogs for Leader dogs for the blind. I’m recently moved to the area, and currently working part time. So I have a lot of extra free time, my time is very flexible. I consider animals family, so taking care of them properly how their family ask is very important in my eyes. So taking care of them will be followed directly as stated. 😊
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Sofia! She was amazing with our dogs, who absolutely adored her from the start. She went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable, happy, and well cared for. Sofia kept us updated with photos and messages, giving us peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear she has a genuine love for animals, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”
“I have a very strong and playful dog. This was the first time I've had to get a sitter and I was worried about being able to find someone I felt confident could handle him. Rachel was wonderful and showed me I have nothing to worry about. She sent me an adorable photo of him and had a great write up of everything that went on while she was here. It made me smile and laugh. I enjoyed reading about my dog's usual goofiness and that he was pretty well behaved. I do hope she'll be willing to take him on again! Thank you!!!!”

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
