“Kylie did good overall all and our pets seemed happy and well cared for. She sent pictures every day. One small thing for next time: I would recommend to put the used poop bags in the outdoor trash instead of the kitchen can. Otherwise everything was great!”
“Jessica did an amazing job! She was communicative, responsive, did everything correctly, and I was able to leave in peace knowing my pets are gonna be cared for properly! Highly recommend!”
“Got it—here’s a draft: We had a wonderful experience with [Name] during a drop-in visit with our dog, Finn. She was extremely communicative, sent plenty of pictures, and kept us updated the whole time. Since we were from out of town, she even shared great local recommendations for places to eat and things to do nearby. Her thoughtfulness made everything so much easier, and we’d happily recommend her to anyone looking for dependable, kind pet care.”
About: Hello! My name is Hannah, I am 26 years old. I have several years of pet experience with both dogs and cats alike! I have personally owned pets my entire life. I have rescued, cared for, and owned more pets than you could imagine. My high school provided veterinary assistant courses that I attended for all 4 years. I have experience with dogs who have medical issues and many different physical activity requirements. My current job allows for me to have complete schedule flexibility! I am available full time for your pets! There is not one job too big or small. I care for 5 pets daily! My household holds 4 cats and 1 big dog. Medication management, physical activity, personal attention and feeding schedules are all apart of my daily routine. I have a large fenced in back yard that my dog enjoys several times a day! I have several toys and gadgets for great enrichment time and comfortable sleeping beds and blankets when it’s time to relax.
“Amanda was absolutely wonderful with Gordon. She was incredibly communicative throughout the stay, sending frequent updates and pictures that gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She also handled an unexpected change in plans with grace and flexibility when my family arrived before I did, staying with Gordon until I got home and making sure everything was taken care of exactly as needed. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the pets she watches and the people who trust her with them. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again, and Gordon and I are so grateful for her help!”
“She is a great pet sitter. We have older pets who have medications and are on specific schedules. Anna asked great questions during our meet and greet and made me have confidence in booking her. Our pets seemed to enjoy her presence and looked liked they warmed up to her quickly. We look forward to working with her in the future!”

About: I’ve been trusted by friends, family, and paying clients to care for dogs and other pets, including overnight stays while owners are away. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and breeds—even large dogs, since I have a Rottweiler of my own and have grown up around big dogs and pets my entire life. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I make it a priority to keep them safe, comfortable, and happy. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or simply keeping them company, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m dependable, attentive, and will always communicate with owners so they know their pets are in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, overnight stays, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. I always make sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they need, and I’m happy to accommodate feeding schedules, medications, and any special instructions to keep your pet comfortable and maintain their normal routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I do my best to keep that routine consistent while you’re away. I’m attentive, dependable, and will carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any special requests. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes—including large breeds, as I own a Rottweiler myself—so I’m confident handling energetic or strong dogs. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I have over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for all pets including my own. Friends and family trust me for reliable, attentive, and responsible pet care. I’m flexible with pets throughout the week! My dog lives with me, so we follow a consistent routine with morning walks, evening walks, playtime, and regular potty breaks. I live in a dog friendly apartment with a courtyard for play. I can use a crate if requested and closely follow each pet’s routine.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have always relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets, as well as provide plenty of love and attention. At home, I’ve cared for my own pets daily ensuring they’re happy, healthy, and well groomed. I also volunteer with the SMU feral cat community, helping feed, monitor, and care for stray cats on campus. My experience spans from puppies and kittens to senior pets, and I’m comfortable with all temperaments and sizes. Schedule: I’m currently working part time and have a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of time to care for cats throughout the day. I regularly help care for SMU’s feral cat community, so I’m used to feeding, socializing, and checking on cats at different times. I’m available for visits and drop ins most weekdays after 2 PM and weekends all day. I prioritize a safe, calm, and clean environment for every pet and always follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, and any specific care instructions. I make sure spaces are secure, remove hazards, and monitor pets for any changes in behavior. I currently have a puppy (a bichonpoo) and understand the importance of both love and structure. My motto is “life is too short let them sleep on the bed,” but I also believe discipline is key in shaping well behaved dogs. I’m happy to bring my puppy along for companionship if approved, but I always ask first since I respect that every pet and owner has different boundaries.
“Keri was absolutely fantastic! She took great care of my home and my cat while I was away. Communication was consistent and thoughtful, with regular updates and photos that gave me total peace of mind. My cat was clearly happy, comfortable, and well cared for when I returned, and my house was in perfect condition. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter, and I would gladly book them again.”
About: Growing up in me old neighborhood all my neighbors would come to me to take care of their pets when they went out on vacations because they saw how much I really loved to be around animals and how much I knew about how to care for them. I’ve come home from college and now I’m working part time usually in the morning meaning I have time throughout the day to watch over and care for new pets! I have a fenced yard outside a pretty spacious interior and younger siblings who love animals as much as I do that will keep your fur baby entertained!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Valley View walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Valley View maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Valley View 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
