About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I adopted my baby 5 years ago without knowing how close we would be — she’s my baby girl! She’s an apartment dog, so I’m familiar with making sure indoor dogs still get plenty of exercise, enrichment, and attention. I walk my piggy atleast twice a day and love spending time with her — she’s my bestie girl! She’s a CHEWER, so I love finding her chewies that last and that she loves. She has two moods — couch potato and wild animal — so I can hang with both! :) I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs — I’m willing and able to follow your instructions to help your doggy feel safe and cared for while you’re away. I have experience in caring for allergies and other health needs, so I’m comfortable following medication instructions, keeping up with special routines, and paying attention to changes in their behavior. My baby is also quite reactive with people and other dogs, so I’m comfortable doing whatever is necessary for them to feel safe and secure when we’re out and about — and will follow any specific instructions you give me! Your baby will be treated with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m excited to meet you and your doggy! :) I’m currently building a coffee truck business, so my schedule is pretty flexible! I like to wake up and get my dog moving pretty early in the day, so I’d love to do the same for your baby (or follow any routine they do). :) My biggest priorities for taking care of fur babies are safety, comfort, and routine. I’ll follow the instructions you provide closely, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and any specific needs or preferences your pet has. I’ll be very attentive to your babies! It’s so important to me that they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll treat your home with the same respect I would my own, keeping things clean and secure, and making sure doors, gates, and other exits are properly closed. I know how important it is to trust someone with both your pet and your home, and I’ll do my best to give you peace of mind and good communication while you’re away!
About: I have previous pet sitting and boarding experience, and many families returned to us because their dogs were well cared for, happy, and treated like family. What sets us apart is our large property with three separate fenced yard areas, allowing dogs plenty of space to play, exercise, and safely enjoy the outdoors. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust. I provide a safe, loving home environment, personalized attention, regular updates with photos and videos, and care tailored to each dog’s needs. My goal is for every dog to feel comfortable, secure, and excited to come back for future stays. I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, and my pet-loving children are always excited to help give extra love and playtime. We have fostered many dogs over the years and understand that each pet has unique needs and routines. Your pet will rarely be left alone and will be treated like part of our family. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We have a large property with three separate fenced yard areas, providing plenty of room for safe outdoor play and exercise. Because we have fostered many dogs in the past, we are experienced in helping pets adjust to new environments and routines. I can accommodate feeding schedules, medications, crate training, and special care instructions. Dogs are supervised, treated like family, and receive regular photo and video updates throughout their stay.
About: I work full time at a retirement community and cat/dog sit for a few of the residents for weeks at a time. I have a few pets of my own (3 cats, 2 dogs and a turtle) and it is truly chaotic fun. I literally live and breathe caring for fur babies and would love to care for yours as well :) I work 11-8 weekdays with an hour break so I can check on your baby! I am off weekends and spend most of my time with the animals I watch. I have pets of my own and know how much they mean to you therefore I am willing to go above and beyond in their care. I have knowledge of vets in and around the Southlake/Grapevine area and the eastside of Fort Worth/Arlington area. I am able to provide daily updates and photos of your baby while you are gone.

About: I’ve always had a special love for animals and believe our pets are truly part of the family! As a proud owner of both a dog and a cat, I understand how important it is to know your furry family members are in loving, trustworthy hands. I’m dependable, patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities and sizes. Whether your dog is full of energy and loves to play or prefers a slower pace with plenty of affection, I believe every pet deserves individualized attention and care. I’m familiar with the everyday responsibilities of pet ownership, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, maintaining routines, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable. My goal is simple: to give your pets the same love, attention, and care I give my own while providing you with peace of mind when you’re away! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make time for caring for pets throughout the week. As a pet owner myself, caring for animals is already part of my everyday routine, and I truly enjoy it! I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I do my best to accommodate their normal feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and daily routines. Whether your pet needs a little extra attention during the day or someone to care for them while you’re away, I’m happy to coordinate a schedule that works for everyone. My goal is to make sure your pets receive plenty of love, attention, and quality care! Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities! I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family members in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. I believe in providing a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where pets feel comfortable and secure. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs, personality, and routine, including feeding instructions, exercise, potty breaks, and any special care requirements. When caring for pets in their own home, I’m respectful of your space and do my best to maintain their normal routine so they feel as comfortable as possible. Communication is also very important to me! I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are safe, happy, and receiving plenty of love and attention while you’re away.

“Kristen was so great with our dogs and kept us well informed about all they were doing while we were gone. And we loved the pictures from each house visit! Definitely plan to work with her again.”

I currently don’t have a job as this is what I love to do! i’m staying with my parents right now with my 2 dogs and their 3 dogs and 2 cats, so i can’t watch animals here but id love to come to your house and watch your fur babies for you! I will take your dog on walks, play fetch in the yard or whatever you’d like for me to do! I want your pet to love me like they’ve known me their whole life.
“Bethany went above and beyond taking care of my pup. She spent extra time walking and playing at drop In visits and followed our care instructions. I am so grateful, he was in great hands and I will book her again. Better than I expected thank you!”

“Hannah did amazing with our dogs. She was either on time or early every time to go let them out and took very good care of them. She kept me updated every time she went over there and if she wasn’t sure about something instead of just doing it, she asked me what I would do which I really really appreciated. If you have the opportunity definitely book with her she’s amazing.”


About: I have helped train and raise my pitbull for about 4 years now. I also have experience walking and caring for smaller dogs such as malteses and daschunds! I also have various experiences with cats, as a majority of my friends own and have asked me to watch over them on trips. I enjoy giving pets special attention and going on walks with them, as I love traveling so I want animals to share the same wonder in the world as I do! I am also a college student working part time in the office so I am eager to expend my energy on things such as walks and playtime. I live in the area with my family and do not plan on moving anytime soon, so I will be around especially for holidays or anytime you need me. I am currently working part time, so I absolutely love walks due to my office job. I can be available short notice, early mornings, or even late nights! I am very attentive and affectionate when with animals. I am also very patient, so high energy dogs or dogs that love to sniff around are no issue to me. I am also very communicative! If I notice anything out of the ordinary it will be brought to your attention immediately.
About: I’ve taken care of friends and family’s cats and dogs for many years and always enjoy each pet’s unique personality.

“Casey was really great with our pup and available last minute! I was nervous about someone coming to take our dog out who hadn't met her but Casey made sure everything went smooth and gave a lot of updates! I would definitely recommend her as your dog sitter”


About: I have been in love with animals since I was little. I grew up on a farm with horses, cows, a sheep, dogs and cats. I've had 9 rescue dogs throughout my life, as well as 8 niece and nephew pups and countless friends' dogs I've cared for and loved. I have also volunteered at shelters and wildlife rescues, and I've even camel sat! I have experience working with and caring for different breeds, sizes, energy levels, and temperaments and have partnered with trainers to help dogs with work through anxiety, over-stimulation, and reactivity issues. I have also cared for special needs dogs and senior dogs who need meds, diapers, traction devices, slings, and extra attention. Once I get to know a pup, I am very attuned to their behavior/mood/signs and am able to help them feel cared for and safe. I'm currently working part time, so my availability is very wide open. I'm free for walks and play time during the day or overnight stays with your pup in your home if you have a work trip or vacation. Is your dog an escape artist? I've had one of those, so I can bring a heavy wooden gate to block off doors or other areas of the house as needed. Other than that, I will treat your pet with the same care and attention I give my own dogs, and considering that my friends have said they would like to be reincarnated as one of my dogs....

I own a 1.5 year old doberman and also take care of my parents 2 dogs. Walking, feeding them daily.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Roanoke
Daniella was amazing! She was super communicative, reliable, and clearly cared so much about my dog. I loved the updates and photos—it gave me so much peace of mind. My dog was happy and well taken care of when I got back. I already booked with her again and highly recommend her!

Once again, our pup had an amazing time with Samantha and we felt totally at ease! She is observant, kind, trustworthy, great with animals, and excellent at communication. We wouldn’t want to use anyone else! It’s hard to be away from your pet, but having them in Samantha’s care makes it 100x easier!!

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.

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 Roanoke 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.

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.
