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.

“Mikah was great! She took great care of our pups and sent us pictures over our weekend away! She even offered to check on them once more when our plans home were delayed having us get home later than we were hoping. Will absolutely use her again in the future!”

About: I was raised in a rural area with 10 acres of land, and we have always had pets. I've always had a furry child; there has never been a moment in my life without one. I've had the pleasure of raising a variety of dogs throughout the years, as well as two cats. I now have a well-behaved, two-year-old black Lab named Jake. When he was just a tiny puppy, I started training him. He continues to pick up new skills despite having many masteries. I have given Jake all of his training and skills, and even though I have some training expertise, I am not a certified trainer. Jake and I spend a lot of time exercising because we enjoy being outside. Some days, we take a quick lap or two around the block, and others we go for a lengthier walk on the trails! I am a rule-follower, and your pet's health, happiness, and safety are always my top priorities. I am available for drop-in visits (bathroom breaks and feedings), walks, and baths (no grooming). If there is any way I can assist you with your furbabies, kindly let me know! I work three days a week at my full-time job and go to college full-time. I spend a lot of time at home and have time for walks, exercise, baths, and drop-in visits for potty breaks, feedings or check in on your fur babies. I am currently unable to accept any pets for boarding or home-sitting for more than a few hours due to my work and academic commitments. Your pets will be treated the same way I treat mine: as members of the family. At times, my Jake virtually owns the home! While I do let my baby sit on my furniture, I will always abide by your house's pet-related rules. Just make sure to let me know what they are so I can make sure we're acting properly. Currently, I am not available at this time for pet boarding. I do charge for pet baths and it's arranged by weight. Rover only lets me set one price for all and I don't charge one price for all dogs. Please message me if you're interested in having your pet washed and ill tell you my price based on their size/weight.

“Samaneh did an amazing job caring for our two crazy lol Maltipoos. She was punctual, did everything we requested and more, communication and photos were awesome, and she cared for them with compassion. She is very thorough, courteous, and sweet. I would definitely recommend Samaneh.”

“Michael was amazing! It was so nice to enjoy our family vacation knowing our fur babies were in great hands! Our Winston is scared and hides from everyone but she loves Michael ❤️ She trusted him from day one! We won't hesitate to use his services again.

About: I am a fourth-year medical student at UT Southwestern, preparing to graduate and begin residency. Over the past 2–3 years, I have gained hands-on experience caring for dogs, primarily helping my roommates by looking after their pets while they are away. My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, providing companionship, and making sure their dogs feel comfortable and well cared for. As a medical student, I understand the importance of responsibility, attention to detail, and clear communication. I take these qualities seriously and bring the same level of dedication to caring for pets. I know how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, so I prioritize following instructions, maintaining routines, and providing regular updates to give owners peace of mind. Whether it’s taking your dog on a walk, keeping them company, or caring for them while you’re away, my goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and positive experience for both you and your pet! As a fourth-year medical student approaching graduation, I currently have a very flexible schedule with plenty of free time throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. With a lighter academic workload during my final year, I am looking to make the most of my free time by pursuing pet sitting as both an enjoyable hobby and an opportunity to earn some extra income. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and would love to use this flexibility to help pet owners who need someone reliable and caring. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I am happy to work around your pet’s routine and specific needs! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities! I currently live in a condo that provides a comfortable, clean, and safe indoor environment where your fur baby will be welcomed and cared for. Our community also has a gated dog yard where dogs can safely play, exercise, and take care of their business under my supervision. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and specific needs, so I make it a priority to follow each owner’s instructions closely, whether that involves feeding schedules, walks, medications, or other preferences. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I am equally committed to respecting their space and maintaining their pet’s normal routine. As a fourth-year medical student, I value responsibility, attention to detail, and clear communication. I am always happy to provide regular updates and pictures so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is safe, comfortable, and receiving plenty of love and attention while you’re away!
About: I have taken care of my moms friends dogs and cats since 7. Friends and family relied on me for taking care of their pets. I’m a part time student. I only go to classes 2 times a week on Tuesday’s and Thursday’s. I would love taking care of your pets during my free times. When I’m at a clients home and I let them outside I will keep a eye on them and play with them. I’ll make sure they are safe and sound.
About: Pets are my heart. I’ve been very careful with how I treat all pets because they’re all different. Over the years since I was younger having to watch all my pets (3 dogs) all the way to having friends and family have me house sit their pets. I loved every second of it. Can’t wait to watch/Care for your pet!! I am opened to work everyday during the week or night. I’ve been blessed enough to have a very opened and free schedule for the most part. I will most likely be pet sitting in the clients house. I will be very careful for the house of business. And I’ll do precisely what the client instructs me to do. With a sprinkle of love!
“Shelly is the best we’ve used her for our babies but recently one of our babies passed away. Sheldon loved Shelly when she came over to feed them. Patches does to. 5 stars is nothing it should be 100 stars”
About: Hi there, my name is Jordynn. Proud dog mom to 4 pups. From as early I can remember animals have been a big part of my life and that’s why I’m the friend everyone calls when they need someone to watch their pets. I’m new to Rover. It wasn’t until a recent trip of mine where our sitter canceled last minute that I signed up for and used this service. That Rover sitter was a life savor and I knew I wanted to be that life savor for other people. I’ve taken care of a wide array of breeds from frenchies to pitbulls of all ages. I have 3+ years experience with misunderstood dogs such as trauma survivors or dogs labeled “aggressive”. I pride myself on providing every animal a loving and safe experience where they can be themselves and feel as relaxed as possible while their owners are away. I know how stressful it can be leaving your baby in the hands of someone else and I assure you I will help relieve you of all of that stress. Photos and communication are my speciality. Looking forward to meeting you and your furbabies 🐶🐱 I currently work as an independent contractor for videography so i have a very flexible schedule but making sure pets in my care get all the potty breaks and attention they need comes first. I will diligently follow any guidelines provided to me from the customer and treat any home or furbaby with the same high level of respect I treat my own home and furbabies with.
About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats since the moment I could remember! I consistently take care of friends dogs when out of town, walking, feeding, and sitting. I can cater to your needs! I am available full time - walks can start from 10 am to 3 pm. I hope to bring your furry friend some needed outside time! I have a fenced in yard and take my dogs on walks around my suburban neighborhood. I can cater to your needs and wants for your pup.

I’m reliable, consistent, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I also love keeping pet parents updated with regular pictures and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing how your furry friend is doing. 📸🐶🐱 I’m always happy to schedule a meet & greet beforehand so we can get to know each other, go over your pet’s routine, and make sure we’re a great fit. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! 🐾 It is my full time job outside of travel/real estate work in Texas. I travel often to phoenix and Menlo Park where I do most of my pet sitting. I provide a safe, trustworthy, and loving environment where your pet can feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home. I understand how important it is to know that your furry family member is in good hands, which is why I’m dependable, attentive, and consistent with every visit. I offer pet drop-ins and walks tailored to your pet’s needs and routine, making sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away.

“Karla is so good with Java! She usually doesn’t like anyone except for me, but I’m so grateful Karla is able to come and walk Java in the middle of the work day. I love the Rover card I get & it makes time go by that much faster!”
About: Hello, I am so excited to have a new friend in your pet!!! My name is April and I love cats and dogs but I don't have any of my own. I love dog sitting and walking them too. I'm working from home at the moment and getting out to walk a dog is just what I need to keep me sane. I have a few families that I sit for on the regular and the dogs have become like friends. My schedule is pretty flexible so if you have any questions let me know. I have my own vehicle and do not work my regular jobs on the weekdays so this works out perfect for me. Can't wait to meet you and your fur babies and cats.
About: I do temporary fostering through a Denver foster based rescue which includes puppies all the way up to senior dogs. I absolutely love doing that and i’ve been able to learn and adapt to dogs of all ages. I do temporary fostering because my schedule can get pretty chaotic, but in the spare time I do have I LOVE to spend it with pets!! I do had a dog, but she just lives with my parents and not me, but she is my little baby. Most of my experience comes from watching my sisters 3 dogs and 3 cats, so I’m able to juggle a lot at once and I am very organized. I truly do just enjoy being able to spend time and grow a connection with pets while also being a trusted person owners can turn to when needed! I work a full time restaurant job, but I get two full days off a week! I can also hang out with your dog or dogs before I have to go to work usually at 3 or 4 or after my shifts around 5!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Ovilla is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $28 per visit. On Rover, 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 November 2026, there are 5,443 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 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 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 Meet & Greet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Ovilla. On Rover:
- 86% 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 cancellation policy, 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.
