About: While I’m new to pet sitting/walking, I’ve been around animals and have had animals in my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for a variety of pets, including dogs and reptiles. Having had the opportunity with different types of animals has taught me to be patient, attentive and understanding of each pet’s unique personality and needs. I truly enjoy being around animals and take their safety, comfort, and happiness seriously. I would love the opportunity to give your pets the same kindness and care I’ve always given my own. After my recent layoff, I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule your provide the best care for your pet(s) while you are away For check-in visits and dog walks, I’ll make sure your pet get the exercise they need while remaining safe. I will provide fresh food and water, bathroom breaks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I will also maintain a clean space for them and send frequent updates and photos so you know they’re safe and happy while you’re away.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all personalities and energy levels. I’ve house sat and cared for dogs in their own homes, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free while their owners are away. I’m very active with my own dog and go to the dog park daily, so I’m confident handling playful, energetic dogs as well as more relaxed ones. I prioritize safety, consistency, and giving every pet the same love and attention I give my own. I have a flexible schedule and am able to give your pets lots of time and attention. I do have class on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9am to 2pm, but I’m available before and after, as well as all day on other days. I’m usually home, so your pet won’t be left alone for long periods. I make sure they get regular walks, playtime, and plenty of attention, including trips to the dog park for exercise and socialization. I live in a very dog-friendly apartment complex with a large dog park available for safe play and exercise. I take pets out for regular potty breaks every 2 to 4 hours and make sure they stay on a consistent routine. I provide a clean, safe, and calm environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for. I always prioritize their safety, whether that means supervising playtime, following feeding schedules, or crating if requested by the owner.

About: What sets me apart from with sitters is my integrity. I am a professional and the things we discuss and agree on will be what is followed. My home is clean, clutter free, and I don’t clean with harmful chemicals that may harm your pets. I pay close attention to detail with everything that I do. My back yard is prepped and ready for your pups to explore. I will ensure they are fed, groomed, walked, entertained and well rested while in my care. I see pets as a member of the family and would love to care for them as my loyal guests ❤️ I’m currently in cosmetology school. I was a social worker but I’m currently switching careers. Right now I go to school from 6:00pm-9:30pm M-F. Starting on October 19th, my school schedule will switch to 9AM-5PM M-F. I have a lot of availability and have an open schedule to tend to your pets. My back yard is fenced. My home is clean and clutter free. I don’t have any small items laying around that they could choke on. I clean my home with all organic materials that don’t have any harmful chemicals. I don’t have any children or other pets. I also keep the air conditioner at a cool temperature.

About: I have loved and handled pets/animals of all kind since I was a toddler with no fear in sight. Outside of my own pets, most of my family and friends have always had some sort of pet that I have watched or taken care of- dogs, cats, snakes, fish, turtles, ferrets, lizards, some of everything. My grandfather also had a farm with horses, chickens and cattle that my brother and I helped him take care of. I am a substitute teacher, so I don’t work everyday, and get to choose when I work. This also means that I have the summer and holidays off so my flexibility is very high. If I am in someone else’s home caring for their pet, I follow all rules set by the owner for both the pet I’m watching and myself. If I am watching a pet at my home, I make sure everything is very neat and clean so there are no health hazards and they can’t get into things they shouldn’t.

“I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for Zeus. I'm so grateful for Michael. Not only did he take care of Zeus while I was out of town, but he helped to calm the anxiety Zeus had due to our lifestyle change. When I came home, Zeus was looking for Michael to come, not me. He was so much more calm and willing to obey commands.”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was very young both big and small. My oldest dog passed at 16 years old so I have experience with senior pets. Calm and energetic, young and old, big and small I’ve done it all! I have a full time job but 3 days off a week (Sunday, Monday, Tuesday). I can come yours or they can come to mine. I do live in a pet friendly apartment which offers a dog park for your fur baby to run and play. I currently have no pets as my sole pup recently passed tragically so pets needing solo care (no other animals) is no issue. I have a large and smaller crate is that is something needed as well as food, treats, brushes, and shampoos for bathing.

About: Hi, my name is Angela! I am naturally active and have grown up in a household that has had life long fur babies in my family for as long as I could remember. I’ve become very hands on when it comes to four legged best friends. I’ve also had a few years of assisting at a doggy daycare and boarding (BHV), so very comfortable with instructions on special diets or medications to be given. My experience does include dogs and cats. I am happy to help and assist you with your fur baby! I am pretty much available in the evenings, but do typically have a day off Monday - Friday. If you should have any questions, please let me know. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Ovilla

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Ovilla on Rover is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $28 per visit. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 5,484 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Ovilla. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Ovilla 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 .

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

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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.

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
