“This is my second time booking Xandra and I couldn’t be happier. She is extremely attentive and communicates well. I really appreciate how quickly she responded and kept me updated throughout the trip. I def recommend her ! Book with her if you don’t want to worry about your fur babies while you’re away.”
“Michael is amazing. I took a week long vacation and Michael visited my home twice a day to care for my babies. He sends notes and pictures daily. He has exceeded my expectations. I will use him again in the future.”
“Lana was amazing with my pups! We were out of town for a family vacation and she spent time hanging out with and playing with them and made sure to send thorough updates and pictures throughout the week!”
“Maddie was amazing, playing with my cats, sending updates and pictures and even adding on a day in an emergency. Made me feel good about leaving my babies in her care.”
“Rebecca took great care of our two cats while we went on a 9-day vacation/cruise. We received updates and photos each day. We couldn’t be more pleased. Our cat that hates strangers took to Rebecca pretty quick.”
“Ruth provided a loving support for our girls while we were away! It is always difficult to travel and leave your pets at home but having someone you can trust to be your eyes and ears while you are away reduces the anxiety of leaving. Thanks Ruth!”
“As always, Elle is fantastic and our cat loves her. I’ve lost track of how many times we’ve scheduled with Elle but we have two more trips this year…. At a minimum. Can’t recommend her enough!”
“John was AMAZING! So kind and took amazing care of my animals. He was also very punctual too and provided tons of pics and feedback on how the walks went and general behavior. Will definitely be looking to book him again if he is available!!”
About: I've had dogs all my life and cats for a few years (my mother-in-law lived with us 30 years). I don't consider them pets--they are family. Presently, we have 4 dogs and a 55 gallon aquarium. We live in the Shores and I'd like to stay close (Rockwall/Heath). I'm retired, so this is a fun way to spend some time. Having used pet sitters myself, I understand the importance of having someone, you can trust, enter your home and ensure your pets are fed, water, and given ample rest breaks. I'm retired, so I have plenty of time to devote to pet sitting. When I commit to a job, my focus is on that job and to provide topnotch care for your baby. I will meet with you to get information on how you care for your pet(s). My goal is to treat them just how you do to minimize disruption for them, while providing you peace of mind. I know how it is to trust someone else with your best friends, so my goal is to allow you to be away, without worry. You can live life knowing that you will come home to your fur baby just as you left them.
“Ashley is always available when we need her, even with last-minute requests, and we are so thankful for her. She’s amazing with Maxy, and we always feel completely comfortable and at ease leaving him in her care.”
“Michelle was amazing with our Cooper. He is an older dog and we were really worried about leaving him. She spent time with him and gave us updates. He looked happy in all the pictures she sent. We will definitely use her again.”
“Emma will be booked again by us. She called & spoke with me, at length about Finley’s very specific needs. She followed every instruction to the letter. Thank you so much, Emma!!! We 🩷’d having you.”
“We have hired Sarah several times to care for our dogs. She is wonderful. She knows a lot about animals, and she's wonderful about following all the care instructions we have. Our dogs love her company. We feel lucky to have found Sarah!”
“She is legit the sweetest and most professional young lady. I had a dog sitter for the past 3 years but she moved to NYC. I contacted Jadah and she made me feel so comfortable leaving my sweet girl with her. I travel for work and she will be my absolute go to forever !!!”
About: I have worked at Petsmart before. At Petsmart we are required to know what makes a dog comfortable while at a public place or somewhere other than home. I have watched over puppies 2 and 3 months old for my in laws a couple times now. My parents got a kitten that I helped take care of till I moved out about 10 months later. I own a chinchilla which is an exotic small animal. I’ve had her for a year. I’ve been fascinated by pets since I was a child and always do my research before taking care of an animal. I look forward to being of assistance. I fluctuate between part time and full time. I’m usually free tuesdays, wednesdays, and thursdays. I can schedule the time off if it’s 3 or 4 weeks in advance. I usually work mornings except for mondays, when I work evenings. I can always visit the pup or kitty during break and then spend the rest of the day with them after work. This will most likely be temporary until I can get a solid schedule here or at Home Depot. My apartment complex is very pet friendly. My building is only a few steps away from a dog park inside of the complex. The clubhouse has dog treats and I can provide as well based on age and diet. I will always ask any questions about what you would prefer for your fur baby. I have a chinchilla that stays in a cage as long as your pet is around. She is curious and will not hurt your pet even if they stick a paw in between the bars, which is hard to do anyways. My living room is a large space for any pet. I’m currently working part time, but I’m willing to do weekly stays with 2-3 weeks in advance notice. I also will require meet ups before every service in a public place. This is not going to be required for existing clients. I live in an apartment so I don’t currently own any pets, but everyone in my direct and extended family either has, or has had one that I’ve grown up with. I’m very familiar with animal routines and attributes. If something is bothering your pet, I will notice. I always keep in constant contact with whoever I petsit or help take care of for anything I may notice. Most of the time it’s things owners are already aware of, but I’ve always found it never hurts to ask and inform.
“Ava did a great job checking in on Ruby! She started her check in on the app, left a thorough note letting me know how the visit went and sent such great photos showing all the fun Ruby was having. I feel so much less puppy mom guilt on long days in the office when Ava can come do a drop in visit with Ruby. We feel so lucky to have found Ava on Rover.”
“We highly recommend Lauren for your petsitting needs! She took wonderful care of our 4 cats while we were away, but went the extra mile when we had an unexpected house emergency as well. When she was monitoring the water levels in our pool she noticed some electrical wires on our side-yard that were smoldering and emitting smoke! She called us right away, called the fire department and waited for them to arrive and confirm the issue was under control. She spent extra time on FaceTime with us and the firefighters and even came by an additional time later that day to check on things and make sure all was okay. We are so thankful that Lauren handled the stressful situation perfectly giving us peace of mind that our kitties and home were safe for the remainder of our trip. This was a unique situation and we are so fortunate that she was checking on not only our pets but our home while we are away.”

This is the second time Beth has taken care of our cat Sylvie! Beth is a great communicator & sends plenty of pictures and videos. We never had to worry about Sylvie while we were gone. Beth cares for the pets she watches as if they were her own. She’s truly a star sitter!
Christina is always so wonderful when watching our dogs. They love when she visits so much that they prefer staying home. I love that they are in familiar surroundings and do not get anxious. She has great communication and always follows up after every visit. Highly recommend!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Rockwall on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Rockwall stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Rockwall. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
