About: Hi! I’m Olivia, a dedicated pet care provider with several years of experience caring for cats and dogs of all ages, from neonates to seniors. I offer reliable drop-in visits designed to keep your pets comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you're away. During each visit, I can provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication administration, litter box cleaning, and plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I’m happy to follow your instructions to ensure consistency and minimize stress. I have experience working with a wide range of personalities, including reactive, nervous, and shy dogs. My goal is to help your pets feel safe and secure in their familiar environment while giving you peace of mind. Whether your pet enjoys active play, leisurely walks, or simply some companionship and cuddles, I’ll make sure they receive the attention they deserve during every visit. Your pet’s happiness, health, and safety are always my top priorities. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members and discussing how I can help with your drop-in care needs! For pets whose families spend their days at the office, I provide dependable morning and evening drop-in visits to keep their routines consistent and stress-free. In the morning, I’ll stop by to handle breakfast, refresh water bowls, provide potty breaks or walks, administer medications if needed, and make sure your pet is comfortable before settling in for the day. I always follow your pet’s established routine as closely as possible to help them feel secure while you're away. When I return in the evening, I focus on their end-of-day needs, including dinner, fresh water, another potty break or walk, litter box maintenance, and plenty of attention and affection. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, enrichment activities, a leisurely walk, or simply relaxing companionship, I tailor each visit to their individual personality and energy level. My goal is to bridge the gap during your workday, ensuring your pets receive the care, exercise, and interaction they need while maintaining the routine they're accustomed to. By providing reliable morning and evening care, I help keep your pets happy, comfortable, and well cared for until you're back home. When it comes to caring for my own pets and my clients’ pets, I treat them as if they’re part of my family. Their happiness, health, and well-being are my top priorities, and I do everything I can to make sure they live their best life. Whether it’s feeding them nutritious meals, engaging them in play, or providing plenty of cuddles and attention, I tailor my care to meet their unique needs and personalities. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and stress-free. For dogs, this might mean going for long walks, playing fetch, or providing mental stimulation through enrichment activities. For cats, it’s about offering cozy spaces to relax, interactive toys to engage their curiosity, and, of course, plenty of quiet companionship. I pay close attention to their body language and behavior, ensuring they feel relaxed and at ease in every moment. Keeping a consistent routine is key to helping pets feel secure, so I make sure to follow their schedules as closely as possible. Whether it’s sticking to regular meal times, maintaining exercise routines, or accommodating special care needs, I strive to provide a calm, predictable environment. My goal is always to go above and beyond to make them happy. Whether it’s a belly rub for a content pup, a cozy lap for a purring cat, or a simple moment of connection, I aim to make every day as joyful and stress-free as possible for the pets in my care.
“Aleona followed my instructions perfectly while caring for my cat. She shared lots of photos and took him out on the balcony even in cold weather, as I requested. I highly recommend her!”

“Heather was a great pet sitter! The daily check-ins and photos showed us that our pet was being well cared for, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely use her again if she is available for our future travels.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I first learned to walk, from high-energy pups to mellow seniors. Whether your fur baby is a playful adventurer or a cozy couch potato, I tailor my care to their vibe. I treat every pet like my own—with love, patience, and way too many photos (you’ll get daily updates, promise 📸🐾). I offer in-home boarding in a calm, clean, dog-friendly space—think soft blankets, good energy, and lots of tail wags. If your dog is a little anxious, picky, or just needs that gentle feminine touch, you’ve found the right sitter. I have two sons that love dogs just as much as I do and I also have an old senior citizen grandpa named Hercules🐕. Don’t worry he sleeps all day and is impressed by food and food only! 😂 ✅I’m available for meet and greets always. ✅Special needs, shy and senior friendly! ✅Puppy friendly!! My vibe is grounded, nurturing, and detail-oriented—but also fun. I’ll send updates, stick to your dog’s routine, and make sure they feel totally loved while you're away. Let’s connect! Your pet deserves nothing less than intentional care from someone who adores what they do 💕 As a stay-at-home mom, my days naturally revolve around care, connection, and consistency—so adding pets into that rhythm feels seamless. I’m already tuned in to routines like morning walks, mealtimes, and keeping a calm, nurturing environment. Whether it’s letting a pup sunbathe while I sip coffee or sneaking in cuddles during nap time, animals easily become part of the flow. I love the energy they bring to the house—whether playful or peaceful—and I’m always present to notice what they need. Pets fit right into our home like family, and caring for them never feels like a chore—it’s just another way I get to show up with love and intention each day. When caring for pets, I focus on making them feel safe, loved, and right at home. I follow their routines closely—whether that’s specific feeding times, medications, or extra snuggles before bed. I have a secure, fully fenced-in yard where dogs can play, sniff, and stretch their legs freely under my supervision. Inside, they’ll find cozy spaces to relax and lots of attention throughout the day. I treat every pet like part of the family, tuning into their needs and making sure they’re comfortable, engaged, and always cared for with kindness and patience.

About: I've taken care of animals of almost every kind since I was a kid. I have had cats, dogs, lizards, rats, hamsters, turtles, and snakes as personal pets. I have been relied on to go above and beyond for the animals I'm taking care of, from the sudden need for a bath, showing up on short notice, and tidying the house I'm watching them at. I don't mind any task when it comes to caring for animals. I’m currently a full time online college student, so I have a very open and flexible schedule. Im free to take care of your babies weekdays and weekends! In your home, I will make sure to abide by every rule I'm given and that I'm there at any time needed. I take pride in being a punctual person, so if your pet is in need of specific timely care, you can count on me for that. I make sure to respect the space I'm in and I've been raised to leave anywhere I stay cleaner than I found it.

About: I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding, playtime, administering basic care, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love animals, so I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, care, and playtime throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, and pet sitting on both weekdays and weekends. I always make time to follow each pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and cared for. I always prioritize safety, comfort, and trust when caring for pets. I make sure pets are supervised, well cared for, and kept in a clean, calm environment. I follow feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special instructions closely to make sure each pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable while in my care.
“Valerie is a really nice person & her huge love of animals is a big plus! From the initial meet & greet, our cats liked her and they’re typically shy towards strangers. I think they could tell she’s a true animal lover. She is very thorough and sent pics & updates to us while we were away. We felt very comfortable leaving our 2 cats to be checked on by her. Valerie is a wonderful pet sitter & we will definitely use her services again.”

“Diane did an amazing job making sure Cowboy was well taken care of! She fed him and took him out for for potty breaks every day. On days that the weather wasn’t great she would spend some extra time playing with his toys inside to tire him out. She did a great job managing his stubbornness as Cowboy isn’t always the easiest to walk on a leash.”

About: I’ve raised all kinds of pets from newborns, adopted, and elderly. They deserve attention and care just like humans and I strive to do just that. I work Sat-Tues 7a-5p and off during the week. I’m able to swap days with 48 hour notice. I look forward to caring for your fur baby! 🐾 I am not currently a pet parent so your animal(s) will have my full and undivided attention. I’m empathetic and know when I need a break, so do they!

We had a great experience with Kelly. She was very kind, punctual, and our two pups were immediately comfortable with her. She sent detailed updates during each drop-in visit, which gave us peace of mind. We will absolutely rebook her in the future! Thank you Kelly!!

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 Royse City 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.
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 Royse City 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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.
To find sitters in Royse City with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
