“Samantha is absolutely incredible! She recently watched our four pets (two dogs and two cats) and provided the absolute best care we could have asked for. Right from the start, her attention and care stood out. On the very first day, our dogs had a couple of accidents, and Samantha handled the pee and poop cleanup immediately and communicated with me. Our cat Jasmine was feeling quite shy and hid for the first day, but Samantha took the time to look for her and coax her out of her hiding spot. After which, we received frequent pictures of our sweet girl. Overall, we received lots of updates and pictures during every single visit, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. We are so grateful to have found Samantha and cannot recommend her highly enough for anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
About: What sets me apart is my dedication, adaptability, and genuine love for animals. While I may not have formal pet care experience, I am eager to learn and committed to providing the best care possible. I take the time to understand each pet’s unique needs and follow instructions carefully to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in my care. I am currently a sophomore in college. I do have a job but I am looking to earn a bit of extra cash. I also plan on becoming a veterinarian so any hands on experience with animals helps in so many ways! I provide personalized care based on each pet’s needs, ensuring they feel safe and comfortable. I follow feeding schedules, go on walks, provide playtime, and give plenty of affection. I also respect any special instructions, including medications or routines, to keep your pet happy and stress-free while you're away!
“Kelly was great! Our dog was a little nervous about him at first and barked at him for the first 1/2 of his visit. He was calm and took his time reassuring our boy. Unfortunately, our trip got cut short so they couldn’t get to know each other better. I highly recommend Kelly to watch your pets.”
About: Our family love dogs. Our home has plenty of indoor and outdoor running space. We treat dogs like family in our home. We have 2 children ages 10 and 5 and a 2 yr old golden doodle. We promise to interact with your pets and give them the love they deserve. We will send photos/videos of your pets and promise to keep you updated daily so that you have peace of mind while you are away. Also, we do not pet sit any pit bulls or pit mixes. We also require a meet and greet prior to the first stay to make sure our home is a good fit. Both my husband and I have flexible work schedules. I work from home everyday. There are times that I may have to leave the house to attend meetings for a couple of hours however your pet will not be alone for more than a 2 to 3 hr period as my husband also comes home if I have to be gone longer than that to tend to our own dog Sasha. I have a fenced yard with plenty of room to run around and play. Our golden doodle is young and full of energy and loves to socialize with other dogs. If we have the opportunity to take care of your fur baby more than likely your fur baby would probably sleep in a bed just like our own golden doodle. I can promise you that your fur baby will get plenty of exercise and also be entertained by not just our fur baby but also our 2 kids who love all dogs. Please keep in mind that if your pet is unpredictable or has been aggressive in the past I can not take care of your pet as it’s important to keep our home safe for our children and other pets that may be in our care. Also, if your pet has a habit of marking territory inside a new home environment then our home will not be a good fit.
About: I have experience with taking care of all range of pet needs, from strict schedules to more flexible basic care needs. I regularly take care of my friends and family pets. We walk. We read. We nap and snack. If there's a schedule to be kept, I'm on top of it. If your cat, dog, iguana, bird, or other pet is more flexible and just wants to chill, I'm happy to do that as well. You let me know what your beloved pet needs and I'll help make it happen. I usually take/send at least daily care pics with the pets activities of the day as well. I have a flexible schedule! I can do any time. Whether it's early mornings. Late nights. Sleep overs. Weekends.Holidays. Afternoons! Whatever your fur kid needs. Safety and trust always first. I will treat your fur kid's like my own. I will give them walkies. Pets and cuddles. Reading time. Snack time. I will love on them.
About: Hi, I’m Alison! 🐾 and I’m 29 years old. I’m a pet lover based in Haltom City, TX, and I truly enjoy spending time with dogs of all breeds and sizes. I provide a safe, loving, and fun environment where your pup will feel right at home. I’ve already cared for several wonderful dogs and love creating a strong bond with each one. I live in an RV that is almost a tiny house with my husband. My RV is inside a fence that remains closed at all times. I live in a quiet neighborhood and have a very large yard behind my RV, perfect for running and playing with your dog. We also have some green areas and parks around. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, doggy daycare, and overnight stays. If you're looking for someone reliable, caring, and responsible, I’d be happy to help care for your furry friend! 🐶💕 I hope to hear about you soon! I love providing a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for pets while their owners are away. I want every pet in my care to feel at home and receive plenty of attention and love. I’m usually available every weekend and two full days during the week for boarding, doggy daycare, and walks! Three days each week, I’ll be away from home for about 8 hours, but the days may vary from week to week. I’ll always make sure my furry guests get a walk and are fed before I leave and as soon as I return home. I live in an RV next to a house, where the owner has one dog. The house has fenced areas on both sides, and I have my own separate entrance to my property. The fences remain closed throughout the day to help keep all the pets safe.
About: I am a lifelong animal lover with 10 years of experience caring for dogs and cats. For the last 15+ years, I have been a dedicated owner to two highly active Shepherds, which means I am incredibly comfortable with high-energy working breeds and dogs of all sizes. I frequently sit multiple large dogs (50+ lbs) at the same time, so managing a lively pack is second nature to me. While I am not a professional trainer, I have a deep understanding of dog behavior. My own dog holds an AKC certification, and we actively practice tricks and obedience together. When I am walking or watching your dog, I don't just keep them safe, I actively engage with them, read their body language, and help reinforce their good habits. I currently work part-time during the day, and I am fully available Monday through Sunday after 5 p.m. My evenings are wide open and perfect for taking your pup on a long walk. As a dog walker, my top priority is leash safety and situational awareness. Having handled active Shepherds and 50+ lb dogs for 15+ years, I know how to read canine body language and avoid potential stressors on our route. I always double-check harnesses and collars, ensure your dog gets fresh water post-walk if needed, and securely lock your home before leaving.
“Jada did absolutely amazing watching out puppers while out of town. Received lovely check in photos and feedback regarding the dogs. She gave such tender love and care to them and our home. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone you can trust while your away.”
“Monica has been cat-sitting our 2 babies whenever we travel for over the last year and she has continued to exceed every expectation with each visit! She follows every instruction consistently and adds amazing extras like sending us updates and photos daily. It makes traveling and leaving our cats a little less stressful knowing she will be there to care and play with them! We are so happy Rover led us to her!”
“Sarah did an amazing job taking care of our kitties while we were on vacation. She even got our shy boy to warm up to her and come out from under the bed! We came home to happy healthy babies, which is all we could ever ask for.”
“Jocelyn is awesome always takes great care of my dog when I am away. She is very communicative and always sends updates. I recently needed a last minute request for her to do drop ins and also needed to extend my request and she was very flexible and willing to help! My dog also has very bad allergies and she is always willing to give him his medication if needed. I would definitely recommend Jocelyn!”
“Sophia did a great job taking care of our 2 cats for over a week while we were traveling. She followed our instructions well and we would be happy to rebook with her in the future !”
“Hope is super sweet and very reliable. She communicates well and my doggo loves when she visits. Will definitely continue to use her services. Thank you for everything Hope!”
About: I have had numerous animals since I was young, I have animal sat for cats dogs and even snakes, I did check ins, walks and grooming as well! I’m currently in college full time, so my schedule can vary, but I’m good at planning ahead and making time for pet care. I honestly enjoy spending my free time with animals because it’s a great way for me to relax and destress from school. I treat every pet like they’re my own and want them to feel comfortable and safe while I’m with them. I’ll follow their normal routine, pay attention to their needs, and make sure they’re always supervised and cared for.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Richland Hills
Samantha is amazing. I can't say enough good things about her. My parents were dealing with some medical issues and couldn't provide for their dog for a few weeks. She came over twice a day to make sure he was fed, walked, and give his insulin. She also was caring enough to reach out when their home health provider didn't arrive one day. She goes above and beyond. I highly recommend and will definitely use her services again.
Patricia was truly a blessing. ❤️ Leaving my girl behind is never easy for me because I worry about her when I’m away. Knowing Patricia was there made such a difference. She was incredibly attentive, gentle, caring, and thoughtful. The videos and updates she sent meant so much to me. Being able to see my girl, see that she was comfortable and happy, and watch Patricia giving her love and attention gave me such peace of mind while I was away. What touched me most was that Patricia didn’t just come in and take care of the basics. She genuinely cared about her. She paid attention to her little quirks, made sure she was comfortable, and gave her the companionship and affection she needed. I could tell from the videos that my girl was happy to see her, and that meant everything to me. Coming home knowing she had been safe, happy, loved, and so well cared for is priceless. Patricia went above and beyond, and I would trust her with my girl again without a second thought. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pet with genuine love and attention, I cannot recommend Patricia highly enough. She is wonderful, and I’m so grateful I found her. ❤️
Imán have been wonderful, she pays attention do every detail and every concern since my baby is a senior with neurological problems. She is such a calm sweet person and I believe our fur babies can sense that!! So sad she’ll be leaving soon but glad will have the best Vet in a future, I’m so glad for her! Thank you Iman!
Michaela was awesome! My cats are aging so don’t feel comfortable leaving them for long periods of time without care anymore. Michaela came in every other day and checked on my babies while we were on vacation, and she did a wonderful job with communicating and sending pics of our girls. The peace of mind she gave us was worth every penny!
Sarah was amazing and so communicative. She showed so much love and care for Bernie while we were away, that we were able to enjoy our vacation worry free. This was our first family vacation and first time ever leaving Bernie. He is a senior dog and we weren’t sure how our vacation would impact his health. Thankfully Sarah sent us daily updates and kept us in the loop of Bernie’s daily activities. She is extremely reliable and sees these pets as her own. Anyone hesitant for a dog sitter because of the unknowns, I can not recommend her enough!
Jennifer was so good with both of my dogs! I felt comfortable knowing that she would take care of my babies while I was out of town. I also added an extra visit at the last minute, which she was more than happy to do. I would definitely recommend Jennifer. She has a calm demeanor, and you can tell that she really cares about your babies!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Richland Hills is $16 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $27 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 October 2026, there are 7,546 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Richland Hills. 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.
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.

- 88% 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.
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.
