Looking for a Trusted Pet Sitter in Highland Village?
Highland Village is a small city with a big personality — top-rated schools, safe streets, Lewisville Lake access, and a community where families know each other by name. It consistently ranks as one of the safest and most desirable cities in Texas. Pet owners here expect the same quality in their pet care that they expect from everything else in Highland Village.
DFW Pet Sitting has been caring for Highland Village pets since 2003. Every pet sitter and dog walker we assign 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 Highland Village 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.
Phones are answered 6:00am–11:00pm Central. A manager is on call 24/7 if a visit needs backup. We monitor every single visit through our pet sitting software. If something comes up, we have a full emergency backup protocol with 250+ employees across DFW ready to step in.
Why Highland Village Families Choose DFW Pet Sitting
Unlike apps like Rover or Wag where you’re hiring a stranger with a profile, our Highland Village pet sitters are professionally managed employees. Here’s what that means for you:
Your sitter lives near Highland Village. Our Highland Village coverage includes Highland Village (75077) plus nearby Flower Mound, Lewisville, Lantana, Double Oak, and Lake Dallas. Your sitter isn’t commuting from Dallas or Plano — they’re right in your community. 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. Alarm codes, gate codes, and spare-key instructions stay with that one employee.
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. We do NOT use independent contractors.
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. Nearby Flower Mound, Lewisville, Lantana, and Corinth coverage provides additional backup. With 250+ employees across DFW, your pets’ care is never interrupted.
Pet Sitting Services We Offer in Highland Village
We offer pet sitting and dog walking services in Highland Village 75077 and the surrounding areas this coverage already includes. Visits are 25 minutes.
Vacation & Travel Pet Sitting — Whether you’re heading to DFW Airport or taking a weekend trip, your Highland Village 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 Highland Village 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 in The Shores, Brazos Crossing, or the neighborhoods along Highland Village Road / FM 407, your walker is nearby — and the trail system here is incredible for walking routes. Copperas Branch Park, Doubletree Ranch Park, the Highland Village trails, and a leashed loop by The Shops at Highland Village are the usual routes when your dog needs more than a hallway.
Cat Sitting — Cats hate leaving home, and they don’t need to. Our Highland Village cat sitters specialize in feline care, including medication administration, insulin shots, sub-q fluids, and asthma inhalers. See how a 25-minute Highland Village cat visit works.
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 Highland Village families are always covered. Thanksgiving and Christmas fill first. Call if you already have travel dates.
House Sitting & Home Checks — Mail, porch packages, lights, bins, plants, and a walk-through. Most Highland Village clients add this onto pet visits rather than booking it alone — especially in The Shores, Brazos Crossing, Highland Meadows, and the lakeside properties near Lewisville Lake, where an empty house is obvious. Highland Village is a community where people notice things.
What Makes Us Different From Rover and Wag
A Shores or Brazos Crossing house, a Highland Meadows address, lakeside property near Lewisville Lake, and a DFW Airport itinerary that can shift an hour are not a job for a stranger with a profile. You are hiring a managed W-2 employee of a company that has sat pets in Highland Village since 2003. Side by side:
| Rover / Wag | DFW Pet Sitting | |
|---|---|---|
| Who enters your home | A different contractor each time you book | One assigned sitter — the same person, every visit |
| Who they work for | Independent gig contractor | W-2 employee: background-checked, trained, supervised |
| If something goes wrong | Platform “guarantee” with exclusions | Commercial liability insurance and bonding |
| If your sitter cancels | You re-book and hope | Manager activates backup from 250+ DFW staff |
| Oversight | Nothing between you and the sitter | Every visit tracked by a manager in real time |
| Before your first visit | Optional chat, often skipped | Free in-person meet-and-greet, always |
Cat sitting in Highland Village
Cats hate leaving home, and they don’t need to. Our Highland Village cat sitters specialize in feline care, including medication administration, insulin shots, sub-q fluids, and asthma inhalers. A visit is 25 minutes: fresh water, food the way you portion it, a scooped box, play, and a look at how your cat is actually doing. You get a photo.
Sitters handle pills, insulin, sub-q fluids, eye drops, and inhalers. If a cat hides in a Shores home, a Brazos Crossing ranch, a Highland Meadows house, or a lakeside property near Lewisville Lake they have never fully mapped, they sit on the floor and wait. They do not leave without seeing the cat.
Once a day is the minimum for a healthy adult. Kittens, seniors, and medical cats need two. We will not leave a pile of food and a full box over a long holiday weekend — especially when a DFW Airport trip or a weekend away turns into two extra nights.
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 matters in Highland Village, where homes are in well-kept neighborhoods like The Shores, Brazos Crossing, Highland Meadows, and the lakeside properties near Lewisville Lake. Highland Village is a community where people notice things — and a discreet, familiar presence at your home is exactly what you want while you’re away. Discretion isn’t a perk — it’s standard. Gate codes, alarm codes, and spare keys stay with the one assigned person.
Meet Our Highland Village Pet Sitters
You will meet one of our dog walkers or pet sitters who live in the Highland Village area — in your home, before the first paid visit. They are a W-2 employee, not a rotating contractor. We employ pet lovers who work in their immediate neighborhoods, usually within 5 miles of their homes. Ashley and Laura in the office handle scheduling. A manager is on call 24/7 if a visit needs a backup sitter from our 250+ staff. No photos on this page — you meet them in person.
Our Highland Village sitters work only within a 5-mile radius of where they live, covering The Shores, Brazos Crossing, Highland Meadows, Highland Village Road / FM 407, the lakeside properties near Lewisville Lake, and nearby Flower Mound, Lewisville, Lantana, Double Oak, and Lake Dallas. The person you meet is the only person entering your home.
What clients say
Highland Village families review us on the same Google listing as the rest of DFW — 4.9 stars from 500+ reviews. That is the company listing, not a Highland Village storefront. We do not have a Highland Village office. Read the reviews, then meet your sitter in person.

Highland Village’s Best Spots for Pet Owners
Highland Village’s combination of lakeside access, wooded trails, and manicured parks makes it one of the best small cities in DFW for pet owners. Here are the spots our sitters recommend:
Copperas Branch Park — Highland Village’s most popular park. Walking trails through wooded areas, open fields, sports facilities, and a playground. Dogs on leash are welcome on the trails. A go-to for our daily dog walking clients. On the clock we keep walks leashed here.
Doubletree Ranch Park — A beautiful community park with walking paths, a fishing pond, and picnic areas. Peaceful and well-maintained — great for a calm afternoon walk with your dog.
Pilot Knoll Park — Located on the shores of Lewisville Lake, this park offers lake access, trails, and camping areas. Dogs on leash are welcome. One of the best spots in the area for an adventure walk with water access for dogs who love to splash. We keep those walks leashed on the clock.
Highland Village Trails — The city maintains a connected trail system running through neighborhoods and parks. Our walkers love these trails because they can create varied routes that keep dogs stimulated and exercised without driving anywhere.
The Shops at Highland Village — While primarily a shopping center, several restaurants here offer pet-friendly outdoor patios. A nice weekend outing for a leashed walk and lunch with your dog.
The most important thing is: get out, and enjoy nature with your dog. We also regularly serve nearby Flower Mound, Lewisville, Lantana, Double Oak, and Lake Dallas. Coverage follows your address, not the map. Call and we’ll match you with the closest sitter regardless of the city line.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pet Sitting in Highland Village
How much does pet sitting cost in Highland Village?
A standard drop-in visit is $25 for 25 minutes, one pet. Extra pet is $3. Dog walking plans start at $23. We’re transparent about pricing — unlike apps that add service fees on top, our price is your price. See the rates page or call (214) 574-7387.
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 Highland Village 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.
Do you have a Highland Village office I can walk into?
No. Highland Village is a city we serve, not a storefront. There is no Highland Village street address, no lobby, and no map pin for a branch. Sitters travel to clients’ homes. Your assigned sitter comes to your home in The Shores, Brazos Crossing, Highland Meadows, the lakeside properties near Lewisville Lake, along Highland Village Road / FM 407, or wherever you live in 75077. Phones are answered 6:00am–11:00pm Central. A manager is on call 24/7 if a visit needs backup.
Are your Highland Village 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. Nearby Flower Mound, Lewisville, Lantana, and Corinth coverage provides additional backup. With 250+ employees across DFW, 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 so the person who shows up already knows the cabinet, the fridge, and the cat who hides in a Shores or Brazos Crossing home.
Highland Village is a small city. Do you actually have sitters here?
Yes. Highland Village’s size is exactly why we maintain a dedicated branch here — so we always have local coverage. Our sitters live in Highland Village and the immediately surrounding communities. You’ll never be assigned someone commuting from 30 minutes away.
My kids walk to school and we have a predictable neighborhood routine. Will your sitter keep things looking normal?
Absolutely. Many of our Highland Village clients want their home to maintain its normal appearance while they’re away. Your sitter will follow your instructions — bringing in mail, picking up packages, adjusting lights, and keeping the house looking lived-in. In a community where routines are visible, this matters.
Can my dog walker take my dog to Copperas Branch Park or Doubletree Ranch Park?
If you’d like a leashed park walk, yes. Highland Village has incredible outdoor options, and our walkers love taking advantage of them. During your meet-and-greet, you can discuss your preferred walking routes — whether that’s a neighborhood loop, Copperas Branch Park, Doubletree Ranch Park, the Highland Village trail system, Pilot Knoll Park on Lewisville Lake, or a leashed stroll by The Shops at Highland Village. We don’t do off-leash parks on the clock. We customize to your dog’s needs and energy level.
Do you serve all of Highland Village?
Yes. We offer pet sitting and dog walking in Highland Village, primarily 75077, and surrounding areas this coverage already includes. Give us your address and we match you with the closest sitter — including The Shores, Brazos Crossing, Highland Meadows, the lakeside properties near Lewisville Lake, and the neighborhoods along Highland Village Road / FM 407.
Do you offer overnight pet sitting in Highland Village?
We offer extended visits and can customize a schedule that works for your pets’ needs. Call (214) 574-7387 or 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.
