Looking for a Trusted Pet Sitter in Colleyville?
Colleyville is one of the most affluent and family-oriented communities in the mid-cities — tree-lined streets, large lots, top-rated schools, and pet owners who expect premium service. You’re not looking for some random person off an app. You want a professional who treats your pets and your home with the same care you do.
DFW Pet Sitting has been caring for Colleyville pets since 2003. Every pet sitter and dog walker we assign in Colleyville is a W-2 employee of our company, not an independent contractor or gig worker. They’re background-checked, trained, insured, and bonded. And they live in the Colleyville area, usually within 5 miles of your front door.
We’re not an app. We’re not a marketplace. When you book with us, you’ll meet your assigned pet sitter in person before your first service. That person becomes your sitter — the same face every time, someone your pets will recognize and trust.
Our owner and manager are available 24/7 by phone or text. We monitor every single visit through our pet sitting software. If something comes up, we have a full emergency backup protocol with over 200 employees across DFW ready to step in.
Why Colleyville Families Choose DFW Pet Sitting
Unlike apps like Rover or Wag where you’re hiring a stranger with a profile, our Colleyville pet sitters are professionally managed employees. Here’s what that means for you:
Your sitter lives near Colleyville. Our Colleyville branch covers Colleyville, Southlake, Bedford, Keller, and Grapevine. Your sitter isn’t commuting from across the metroplex — they’re right in your neighborhood. Less drive time means more time with your pets.
One person, every time. The pet sitter you meet at your free consultation is the only person who will ever enter your home. No rotating strangers. Your pets get consistency, and you get peace of mind.
We monitor every visit. Our management team tracks every scheduled visit in real time. If a sitter hasn’t checked in, we know within hours — not days. Nothing falls through the cracks.
Real insurance and bonding. Every sitter is covered under our company’s liability insurance and bonding. This isn’t a $1 million “guarantee” from an app — it’s actual commercial coverage.
Emergency backup that works. Life happens. If your sitter has an emergency, we don’t leave you scrambling. Our manager activates our emergency replacement protocol, notifies you immediately, and sends a qualified backup sitter. Our Southlake, Bedford, Keller, and Grapevine branches surround Colleyville, so backup is always close.
Pet Sitting Services We Offer in Colleyville
Vacation & Travel Pet Sitting — Whether you’re flying out of nearby DFW Airport or taking a family trip, your Colleyville sitter will follow your pets’ exact routine — feeding times, medications, walks, playtime, and all the belly rubs. We handle dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish, and small caged animals. No need to board your pets in an unfamiliar kennel.
Daily Dog Walking — Perfect for Colleyville families with puppies, senior dogs, or busy work schedules. Your dog walker commits to a consistent weekly schedule — same person, same times. We’re not “Uber for dog walkers.” Whether you live near Colleyville Town Center, along Glade Road, or in the estates off Pleasant Run, your walker is nearby.
Cat Sitting — Cats hate leaving home, and they don’t need to. Our Colleyville cat sitters specialize in feline care, including medication administration, insulin shots, sub-q fluids, and asthma inhalers.
Short-Notice & Holiday Coverage — Because our sitters live locally, we can often accommodate last-minute requests. Holiday availability is managed well in advance to make sure Colleyville families are always covered.
Your Home’s Security Is Our Priority
We take a different approach from most pet sitting companies. Our sitters don’t wear branded uniforms or drive marked vehicles. There are no signs in your yard announcing that you’re away.
Your pet sitter looks like they could be a family member or neighbor stopping by. Nobody in your neighborhood will know you’re traveling. We don’t want to advertise at your expense — we want your house to look like someone is home.
This is especially important in Colleyville, where many homes sit on larger lots in upscale neighborhoods like Montclair Parc, Colleyville Estates, Timber Creek, and the properties along Pleasant Run Road. Your home represents a significant investment, and our discreet approach ensures it stays secure while you’re away. Discretion isn’t a perk — it’s standard.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pet Sitting in Colleyville
How much does pet sitting cost in Colleyville?
Our rates depend on the type and length of service. A standard drop-in visit for pet sitting starts at a competitive rate, and dog walking is available at a weekly discount. We’re transparent about pricing — visit our rates page or call us for a free quote. Unlike apps that add service fees on top, our price is your price.
Do I get to meet my pet sitter before booking?
Absolutely. Every new client gets a free in-person meet-and-greet with their assigned Colleyville pet sitter. You’ll walk through your home together, go over your pets’ routines, show where supplies are kept, and make sure everyone — including your pets — is comfortable.
Are your Colleyville pet sitters background-checked?
Yes. Every employee undergoes a thorough background check before they’re hired. They’re also bonded and covered under our company’s commercial liability insurance. We don’t use independent contractors.
What happens if my pet sitter has an emergency?
We have a documented emergency replacement protocol. Our manager is notified immediately, contacts you, and assigns a qualified backup sitter. Our Southlake, Bedford, Keller, and Grapevine branches all surround Colleyville, so backup is always minutes away. Your pets’ care is never interrupted.
Can you give my pet medication?
Yes. Our sitters are trained to administer oral medications, insulin injections, sub-q fluids, eye drops, and asthma inhalers. We’ll go over the medication routine during your meet-and-greet.
We have a larger property with specific home care instructions beyond pet care. Can your sitters handle that?
Yes. Many of our Colleyville clients have larger homes with specific instructions — bringing in mail and packages, rotating lights, adjusting blinds, watering plants, and maintaining a lived-in appearance. We go over everything during the meet-and-greet and your sitter will follow your instructions to the letter. Protecting your home while you’re away is part of what we do.
Do you offer overnight pet sitting in Colleyville?
We offer extended visits and can customize a schedule that works for your pets’ needs. Contact us to discuss overnight options for your specific situation.
How is DFW Pet Sitting different from Rover or Wag?
Rover and Wag are marketplace apps where you hire individual freelancers. We’re an established company with W-2 employees, professional management, visit monitoring, emergency backup protocols, and commercial insurance. Your sitter is vetted, trained, and supervised by our team — not just reviewed by strangers on an app.
