About: I have two dogs at home and have cared for one since he was around 4 weeks old and the other is a rescue that has been with me since he was 2 years old, both of them are 5 now and the rescue was hard to gain the trust of but I was the first in my family that he trusted and goes to when he's scared. I currently attend Southwestern University in Georgetown. Due to classes I am available primarily on the weekends and on Fridays. Although during weekdays I can help pet-sit in the evening, it truly depends on the day though. I care for the pets at my home and others' pets by mainly giving the animals the space/boundaries they need or want. I think it's important to read and understand their body language to properly care for not only the animals but also yourself.
About: I’m a dependable and caring pet sitter who truly enjoys spending time with animals. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I always follow care instructions closely. I focus on safety, routine, and giving each pet the attention they deserve so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. I take scheduling seriously and always plan my day around the pets I’m caring for. I arrive on time for walks, drop-ins, and check-ins, and I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I’m dependable, responsive, and communicative, so you’ll always know when I’ve arrived and how your pet is doing. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, leash requirements, medications, and any special needs. I stay alert during walks and visits, avoid unsafe situations, and always keep pets secure. I respect your home, your pet’s space, and your trust, and I provide updates and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away.
“Carol took such great care of our cats. Her updates were so detailed with adorable pictures and suggestions. She was so kind and easy to work with. Our kitties were in great hands which made me feel so much better about leaving them”
About: With five years of experience as a kennel technician in veterinary facilities, I have developed a comprehensive skill set in animal care. My responsibilities have included not only the day-to-day care of animals in boarding, grooming, and feeding but also the critical administration of medications. This role has required a deep understanding of animal behavior, enabling me to provide a calm and reassuring presence for both pets and their owners. In addition to direct animal care, I have gained valuable experience in maintaining a clean and safe environment within the kennel. This involves rigorous adherence to sanitation protocols to prevent the spread of disease and ensure the well-being of all animals under my care. My proficiency in administering medications has been crucial in managing both routine health maintenance and addressing specific medical needs of the animals. Overall, my role as a kennel technician has equipped me with the skills necessary to provide comprehensive and compassionate care to a wide variety of animals in and outside the home. I work as a full time Dog Trainer at a training facility during the day, which gives me plenty of time in the early mornings and evenings to be flexible with scheduling boarding and drop-in visits for animals. Understanding that pet owners have diverse and often unpredictable schedules, I am committed to accommodating their needs with minimal notice. Whether it's a last-minute boarding request or a sudden drop-in visit, I ensure that each animal receives the same high standard of care and attention. This flexibility not only provides peace of mind to pet owners but also ensures that their pets are well-cared for at all times. I have access to residential parks that offer ample space for interacting with dogs in a safe and secure environment. These areas are ideal for exercising and socializing the dogs, ensuring they get plenty of playtime and mental stimulation. Additionally, I provide crates for pups who may need to be kenneled, ensuring their comfort and safety when not actively engaged in activities. This combination of open spaces and secure kenneling options allows me to cater to the varying needs of each dog effectively.
About: Lifelong dog lover with 11+ years of experience and caring for pups. Reliable, caring, happy and dedicated to keeping your pets happy, safe and healthy. I currently work part time in the evenings from around 4pm to 10pm. Anytime before or after I am able to commit and care for your dogs! Personally, my dogs are spoiled at home. I make sure they are walked, clean and have plenty of fun weather it’s with the ball or just attention. I am understanding that all dogs are different and am willing to follow YOUR instructions on how to best treat YOUR dogs!
About: Hi, My name is Zaneta, I am a 3rd year veterinary student, and I have the biggest heart for animals. I’ve been dog sitting for family friends for about 3 years now, mainly during the summer months or other school holidays. They were mainly drop-ins but a couple were live-ins. I’ve always had a special connection with animals all of my life and I’ve had so many owners tell me that they are so surprised as to how quickly their pet has warmed up to me. I understand that your pet is like your child and I promise to take amazing care of them. I have learned how to do CPR on a dog and also how to notice and prevent signs of heat stroke. I hope that you can trust me to take great care of your animals.
“Tyler always goes above and beyond for our family, I especially appreciate the daily communication that all is well. Our dogs are happy and non stressed when they get to stay in our home. His service allows us to be away from home without worry.”
About: Aloha pet parents! Your pets won't just be watched, they'll be spoiled. I'm dependable, experienced with all animals, and genuinely to be around them. I'll keep them safe, loved, on their routine, and send plenty of updates so you can relax while you're away. With a nursing, and military background you can trust your pets in safe & dependable hands. I only work one weekend a month, and so I’m home plenty of the time. I study online and am working on an advanced degree in healthcare. I love to be outdoors and active, which is why I love being with animals so much. I live on an acre with one friendly Australian Shepherd who loves to make new friends. There’s plenty of safe space for walks, playtime, and fresh air. I make sure pets are always supervised, comfortable, and sticking to their normal routines as closely as possible. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, and any specific instructions from owners.
About: I have had 3 dogs including my life and loved caring for them. Feeding them, playing with them, and taking them on walks! I had a senior dog of 10 years. He couldent walk for his last couple months so sometimes I would carry him small distances he was 90 pounds. I am available all day every day except for mondays from 5:30-9. And when I go on a trip. But I will let you know on the calendar. I only walk dogs and check on them in your house. I can do whatever you need! I can feed them, walk them, play with them, and give them medication.
“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’ve watched dogs from anywhere of 2 weeks at a time to one day. As young as 6 months to 17 years old. Had dogs my whole life and can handle puppies and senior dogs who need help with medication etc. I don’t start a full time job until September, so I have very flexible hours. Mainly doing a workout in the morning and church on Sundays but that’s about it for weekly routine. Always make sure to understand the dogs favorite places and their schedules to have them trust me and feel comfortable around me. Follow strict feeding schedule if required and night/morning routine.
About: I've grown up taking care of my neighbors dogs since I was 14 or so. I am 19 years old and can be very active with any kind of pet. I don't worry about scratches or bites, with that being said, please let me know how active you wish to be with you pet. Other wise I might wrestle them. I work part time but I have many hours of free time. I prefer to be active and keep moving which allows me to have many hours on hand to use, but also could potentially end up busy in certain times. My schedule is highly flexible, and will most likely be easily adapted. I enjoy direct playing with pets. If there are dogs I will most likely play out side in yards or try to wrestle with them at some point. I don't really have a strict behavior with pets, but this can be changed varying on guidelines already given for the pet.

Alicia has been so wonderful with my sweet girl, Lexi. This is my first time using a Petsitter so I was a little nervous. Seeing her check-ins has completely alleviated any worries I had I leaving my dog to come one else to care for. I am a fan of this service and always feel like I’m kept informed of my dogs welfare. Thank you, Alicia!
Sandi is amazing! She has so much knowledge about dogs and shows so much love for my baby! She keeps me updated during her visits with texts and pictures. I hate when I’m away from her all day (I’m retired so her life is with me, except on days when I’m “working” judging gymnastics and gone for 12-13 hours! Sandi lets me know she is on her way, and the pictures she sends are amazing! Last visit I got a video of her walking in calling for my girl. When she came running wiggling, wagging and kissing warmed my heart!
I am so delighted to have come across Svenja. As soon as we met her for a meet and greet, we knew we hit a jackpot. You can feel her sincerity and trustworthiness. Our dogs like calm people with a positive aura. Svenja ticks these boxes (and more). Our dogs need medication and can jump around on the leash when there is some prey around. No problem for Svenja. We know we’ve found our “go-to” dog sitter.

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 Southlake 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!

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.
