“Michael really goes above and beyond what is required. He’s more than just a dog sitter, he really has a passion towards my dog that I wasn’t expecting. Very thankful I found someone who embraces and enjoys a German Shepherd.”
“We have a very grumpy senior cat. Samantha is one of the only humans on this planet he snuggles, but it wasn’t easy in the beginning. She is so patient and kind. Always shows up and goes the extra mile to care for our cat.”
“Brittany was GREAT! I could see the happiness in my dogs face in every picture. It was raining all weekend and I knew opal would get her feet muddy but Brittany took it like a champ! Will hire her again in the future :)”
“Bianca was so amazing, communicative, and attentive with our two cats. She understood both their personality’s and helped ease my concern every day she checked in on them. Not only did she feed, and make sure they had clean water, but she cleaned the litter boxes, and administered their medication daily. Bianca is a highly qualified, genuine caregiver, who I would be lucky to have watch my babies in the future!”
“Ana was super responsive and reliable. She sent us pictures and gave us updates on any details worth noting. I will definitely book her again for future visits. My dogs loved the attention she gave them.”
“Ashley was so great with Azul. I feel completely comfortable with her being in my home while I was away she went above and beyond the call of duty in caring for our puppy.”
“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.”
“Victoria, Dustin, and their boys took phenomenal care of our pups during the drop ins. Our fur pups loved being run ramped and loved on! We will definitely be using them again!!”
“Ms. Elyssa was amazing. She really went above and beyond for our furbabies. She made an additional trip because it was raining and Rosie didn’t want to go potty. She was always on time and provided updates and pictures. Thank you Elyssa for your care on our pets while we were gone!”
“Aleona was great with my puppy, she was very communicative and attentive to her! My pup was very happy and so were we! Would definitely book with her again, she is very trustworthy!!”
“Elle was a real joy and a pro. She was extremely communicative, upbeat, and easy to work with. She has a passion for animals, particularly cats, and got to know my two very quickly. When exchanging keys - because of my mistake - Elle had to come out and meet me twice, which she did without complaint. Eye made the process simple, and I left on my trip with complete confidence that my pets, and even my home, would be in good care. I highly recommend Elle and will even be booking her service during the Thanksgiving holiday so I can visit my sister. I had high expectations, and Elle exceeded them all. Could not be more satisfied.”
“My boys had so much fun with Alexis. I loved seeing their photos! This was the first time leaving my pups with anyone besides family and Alexis made me feel so at ease the whole time! ?”
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.
“Jostyn is an amazing person who communicates efficiently, promptly, and is great with my dog. She helped me put items inside and ensured that the trash was taken out, making sure my dog was as comfortable as possible.”
About: Hi, I’m Kaylee! I’m based in Rockwall and I live with four dogs, so I understand better than most what different personalities, energy levels, and quirks look like and I meet every pet exactly where they are. I have a background in healthcare and just finished my graduate degree in nutrition, so I’m not exaggerating when I say I take animal wellness seriously. I’m completely comfortable with medications, special feeding schedules, dietary needs, or any specific instructions you leave, following care protocols is genuinely second nature to me. I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life, and I know how much peace of mind matters when you hand your pet off to someone. My goal is always to send you home (or to work, or on your trip) feeling totally at ease. Walks are tailored to your dog’s energy and personality, not just a checkbox. Drop-ins are never rushed; I stay, I play, I make sure your pet feels loved. House sitting means your home and your pet both get my full attention and care. Expect photos, videos, and updates throughout every visit because you shouldn’t have to wonder how they’re doing. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I’m currently in a flexible period between positions, so I have a lot of availability right now, including weekends and most weekdays. I genuinely enjoy building relationships with regular clients and their pets, so don’t hesitate to reach out even if your needs are recurring or ongoing! Since I offer walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, I’m coming to your pet in their own space, which I think is one of the best things for an animal’s comfort and routine. I treat every client’s home with complete respect and care. I’m experienced with following detailed instructions, administering medications, and handling pets of varying temperaments. Your pet stays in their familiar environment, their routine stays intact, and you get someone with a healthcare background making sure everything runs smoothly while you’re away.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Royse City is $20

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!!

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 .
As of August 2026, there are 5,464 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Royse City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your 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 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.
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.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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 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.
