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, but I work from home on Tuesdays and Fridays, so I have a little more flexibility on those days for drop ins, walks, or check ins. I’m available before work or after 5 PM depending on what your pet needs. Weekends are super flexible for me, and I’m usually available throughout the day for walks, drop ins, and pet sitting. I’m always happy to work around your pet’s normal routine as much as I can, so feel free to message me and we can figure out what works best for you and your furry baby! 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: Hi, I'm Leslie! This is my alternative option since my husband refused to allow me and adopt another fur baby 😅. I've had dogs my entire life. From the time I was a toddler, dogs have been a constant and beloved presence in my world. Growing up, my family always had at least one furry friend, and caring for them became second nature to me. I’ve owned dogs of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments, and each one has taught me something new about love, patience, and responsibility. My daily routine includes long, enjoyable walks, playful training sessions, and careful grooming to keep my dogs healthy and happy. I understand the importance of personalized care and make sure to tailor my approach to meet each dog's unique needs and personality. My home is filled with love and laughter, with plenty of toys, cozy spots for naps, and, of course, lots of belly rubs. My lifelong experience with dogs has given me a deep understanding of their behavior and needs, ensuring they always feel safe, loved, and well-cared for. I genuinely love dogs and find immense joy in their companionship. If you’re looking for a reliable, passionate, and experienced dog sitter, I’d be thrilled to take care of your furry friend as if they were my own. MEET AND GREET REQUIRED Dogs MUST be vaccinated. I’m an elementary teacher who is off in the summer and looking to keep myself occupied during this long break at home. I’m home all day basically unless I run to the store. I live in a house with a big back yard where your fur babies can run around and enjoy nature! We will always have someone out there as well to make sure everything is okay.

I truly recommend Demi for your future trips and I will definitly contact her again in the future.
April was so wonderful with my cat! I was very worried about leaving him because he takes medication. But April's quick communication--and her love of cats--put me at ease. She was able to give him his meds without issue and sent me lots of pictures. I will absolutely book with her again!
I never heard of this rover app before , first time using it l, was really unsure to trust someone else with my pet , but Lupe was great , She was absolutely wonderful. From the moment we met and booked , She was also incredibly friendly and easy to work with, which made the whole process stress-free. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter for their pets. Thank you for watching over Stella !
Edith is a true "dog whisperer"! She came over for a meet and greet with our 7 month old miniature Schnauzer (Caesar) three times, until he got used to her. Which was not easy with Caesar! And now he loves her. Edith is committed, professional, and respectful of our needs. We highly recommend Edith!
Sian, was a blessing to me and my babies. This is the first time in years, I was relaxed and at PEACE when I left my home.

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 Rowlett 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.

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.
