About: Vacation for you and Staycation for your pup! It's a win-win!! Hi there! My name is Ariel, and I'm excited to meet your furry friend! My husband, Evan, and I are huge animal lovers and have always been willing to help out a friend or family member by watching their pet(s). We've grown up with dogs our entire life and have fostered dogs of all sizes from puppies to a Great Dane and currently have 2 dogs of our own! I would be thrilled to love and take care of your pet when you are away. I'm responsible, loving, and attentive, and I can't wait to pamper your dog with the care that you know they deserve. Big or small, I love 'em all! Why I love dog sitting My husband and I have been dog lovers (and animal lovers in general) our entire lives. We grew up with dogs and began fostering dogs in 2011. I just love it when we can find our fosters a great, loving fur-ever home. Meet my pets Lola, our playful, and goofy Doberman and Rex our gentle, regal German Shepherd. About my yard Our property sits on 2.5 acres that is fully-fenced. Your pet becomes a part of our family when they are with us. There will be plenty of playtime between both our 2 and 4-legged kiddos. We have a fully-fenced 2.5 acre property so your pup can run around and get all the exercise and playtime they deserve. Outside time is always supervised. When we are away from the home we prefer they stay crated for their safety, but this will depend on a case-by-case basis.

“Ashley was great with our pets. She sent pictures all the time and kept me updated with how they were doing. She gave insulin shots to my diabetic dog and was consistent with the times she came. It’s hard to find someone that can give insulin shots, so I’m very glad to have found her.”

About: Hi! I'm Tiffany. I honestly love this gig… I get to watch sweet pups that bring extra fun, laughs, and heart-full moments! Pup therapy :) Brewster is my 7-year-old chihuahua mix and my 3-year-old Yorkie mix named Reese. They are both about 12lbs. Little Brew loves having another buddy or 2 to play with or new people to love on and it’s been an adjustment not having his brother to play and bond with. I live in a single story patio home with a nice side yard for dog running and potty, along with ample walking around the neighborhood. I also have a SMALL dog door that leads into the fenced in backyard but it’s small and only fits dogs under approx 30lbs or less. I do typically work outside if the home Monday-Friday, but I am able to provide dog sitting/boarding at my home and can be flexible at time with working at home if needed. The dogs are able to lounge and play throughout the house. Sleeping arrangements can vary depending on preference and how the dogs get along with each other :) I fully understand the need to find suitable care and right place for your 🐶 while we have to be away from them! I am here to help. I use Rover myself when I travel, so I try to see both sides and provide that in my service. I'm responsible, respectful, professional, good at communicating, and would love to help you out with your pet sitting needs. I go above and beyond to help your sweet 🐶 feel at home and comfortable while you are away. Brewster was a foster fail that I adopted a few years ago and he’s very go-with-the-flow and a grateful dog. He’s full of energy and loves to play and fetch! He and I love to take walks around the neighborhood and the local community dog park for play time. Reese is now potty trained and LOVES to play with his brother and be the life of the party. He does well with other dogs and is a very happy go lucky puppy. If I come to your home, I will make sure your furbaby is loved on, fed, walked and gets some fun interaction/play time each visit. If you are looking to have your pup do overnight stays with me at my home, I always try to arrange a meet & greet for new clients to make sure you and your dog are comfortable with the layout of the house, how they feel around me, and so you can observe how your dog and Brewster interact. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your pup or furbaby! Thanks for considering me! :) I am a full-time working professional out of the home Mon-Fri so this is a side gig. I can have pups visit for the day or for a stay. I have a small dog door (dogs under 20lb-ish) that opens to a fully enclosed private backyard with what I have coined a “dog run”. The dogs have mostly free rein to the couches and dog beds and other rugs or furniture they find to their liking. Weekdays I am home between 6-7pm and don’t venture out much. My pup (and of course yours) will get all sorts of love and attention and play time in the mornings, evenings and overnight or when I’m working from home. I treat all pups like they are my own in how I give them love and attention. Trust, love, and safety for your pets is a MUST! I want them to feel comfortable while I watch them. I follow all instructions or rules the owners share with me and communicate any issues or questions in a timely fashion.

“James was fantastic with our 2 Boxers Papi and Morgan. Before our trip, he visited twice, to make sure he was comfortable with them, what their routine was, and where were things in the house. First of all, he was not afraid of enter the house with 4 Boxers in total, even though he had to care for 2 of them only. He did check-in and check-out at each visit, adding pics and details of what they did. Morgan is very shy with new people, he misses us very much, and sometimes does not eat for days. With James, he warmed up a little bit quicker, and started to eat again a little on the 3rd meal. James did not lost patience and even brought Morgan's food all the way to his safe place to have him eat a little, which he did! I am a Pet Nanny myself, and I highly recommend James for your pups. I cannot thank him enough for giving me peace of mind in living my precious Boxers in his care, and will certainly call him again to care for our pups and look over our home.”

From the start, she was thorough in understanding my cat’s needs and kept me updated with photos and messages, giving me peace of mind while I was away. She was always punctual, consistent, and genuinely attentive, making sure my cat received plenty of affection and care. Dawn was also highly accommodating, flexible with scheduling, and willing to help with any special requests I had. I felt completely confident in her abilities, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, thoughtful cat sitter.”

About: I’ve had dogs for most of my life and have raised my two pups from the puppy stage all the way into their senior years, so I’m very used to all the different stages and personalities that come with dogs. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, brushing, basic routines, and of course lots of love and attention. I’ve also dog sat for friends and family plenty of times, so I know how important it is to keep your pup on their normal routine and make them feel comfortable while you’re away. Whether your dog is super energetic, shy, cuddly, or just wants someone to hang out with, I’ll treat them like one of my own and send you plenty of cute updates along the way! I work a full-time office job Monday through Friday from 8 AM–5 PM. I work from home on Tuesdays and Fridays, which gives me more flexibility for daytime drop-ins, potty breaks, walks, and check-ins on those days. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, I’m generally available for visits before 7 AM and after 5 PM. On Tuesdays and Fridays, I can usually accommodate morning, lunchtime, afternoon, or evening visits depending on the timing and location. My weekends are very flexible, and I’m typically available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, longer visits, and pet sitting. I know pets are happiest when they can stick to their normal routine, so I always try my best to work around their usual feeding, potty, walk, and medication schedule. Feel free to message me with the times your pet normally needs care, and we can see what works best for both of us and your pup! I know how nerve wracking it can be to leave your pet with someone new, so I’ll always treat your furry baby like I would my own. I’m happy to follow any instructions you leave for feeding, walks, medications, routines, or anything else that helps your pet feel comfortable. I’ll also keep a close eye on their behavior and surroundings, make sure doors and gates are secure, and give them plenty of attention while you’re away. I’m more than happy to send pictures and little updates during each visit so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is safe, happy, and being well taken care of!

About: I am a Certified Veterinary Assistant (CVA) with hands on experience in both clinical and shelter settings. I currently work at an animal shelter as a Veterinary Assistant. In addition to my veterinary training, I have volunteered for two years with Friends of Rescue Animals, assisted at PetSmart, and have volunteered with Animal Allies of Texas for over 3 years. I have experience with feeding routines, monitoring behavior/health changes, cleaning, and helping animals feel comfortable. I am confident handling pets of different ages, sizes, and temperaments. As a CVA, I’m trained to recognize signs of illness, stress, and discomfort, which allows me to provide attentive care. I currently work full-time (5 days weekly) but I am available all day Mon and Wed for any service that your pet will need. I can easily crate any animals if needed. I prioritize the safety and comfort of animals and following routines. I make sure pets always have water, are fed (according to owner's instructions), and get the exercise, playtime, and attention they need. I learn each pet's personalities, needs, and preferences when caring for them.

About: I have always had pets in my life. When I was growing up, we would often adopt dogs and cats needing a loving home into our family! I also grew up sharing my home with adopted rabbits, birds, hamsters, and fish. I am a 20 year veteran teacher and would love to spend some of my summer time helping you take care of your fur babies. I'm coming to the end of my school year and have late afternoons into evenings free during the week, as well as full availability on Saturdays and Sundays. I can do earlier mornings during the week if needed, but only for drop ins for morning feedings. I have a senior dog and cat in my home, so I will only be offering services at client's homes. My services include walking your dog, playing catch, lap time with kitty cats, belly rubs and more! Although you will see photos of my family with our pets in my profile, I will be taking care of your pet(s) without any assistance from others, and would be the only one coming to your home to visit or stay with your pet.

About: I’ve cared for both dogs and cats for years, from total couch potatoes to high-energy working dogs. I’m comfortable with pretty much every part of pet care—from walks and feeding to cleaning up the less glamorous stuff, basic training, and plenty of cuddles. I’m dependable, pay attention to the little things, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m fortunate to have a flexible schedule and can accommodate most visits. Looking to work with you and your pets in the Wylie and surrounding areas! I treat all pets with the same respect and love that I do for my own. I know how important it is to have a trust worthy person entering your home and handling your pets. I treat my own as my children, and will do the same with yours. I have a soft spot for herding and working breeds!

I always follow the pet’s routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Pleasant Valley

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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 .

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.

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.

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 .

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.
