Looking for a Trusted Pet Sitter in Lewisville?
Lewisville is one of the largest and most diverse cities in Denton County — a major hub sitting right between the northern suburbs and the Dallas core, with Lewisville Lake on its northern edge and easy access to I-35E in every direction. It’s a city of commuters, families, and a growing population of young professionals — many of whom have pets that need reliable care while they’re at work or traveling.
DFW Pet Sitting has been caring for Lewisville 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 Lewisville 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 Lewisville Families Choose DFW Pet Sitting
Unlike apps like Rover or Wag where you’re hiring a stranger with a profile, our Lewisville pet sitters are professionally managed employees. Here’s what that means for you:
Your sitter lives in Lewisville. Our Lewisville branch covers Lewisville, Highland Village, The Colony, Flower Mound, Carrollton, Farmers Branch, and parts of Plano and North Dallas. Your sitter lives in the area, not across the metroplex. 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 nearby Highland Village, The Colony, Flower Mound, Carrollton, and Corinth branches provide backup coverage in every direction.
Pet Sitting Services We Offer in Lewisville
Vacation & Travel Pet Sitting — Whether you’re flying out of DFW Airport or heading up to Lewisville Lake for the weekend, your 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 Lewisville families and commuters with puppies, senior dogs, or long work hours. Your dog walker commits to a consistent weekly schedule — same person, same times. We’re not “Uber for dog walkers.” Whether you live near Old Town Lewisville, Castle Hills, Vista Ridge, or the neighborhoods along Main Street, your walker is nearby.
Cat Sitting — Cats hate leaving home, and they don’t need to. Our Lewisville cat sitters specialize in feline care, including medication administration, insulin shots, sub-q fluids, and asthma inhalers.
Late Evening Dog Walking — Lewisville is a commuter city, and many pet owners don’t get home until later in the evening. We can schedule walks to fit your actual schedule, not just the 9-to-5. Railroad Dog Park stays open until 11 PM — and so do we when you need us.
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 Lewisville 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 or building lobby 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 home to look like someone is there.
This matters in Lewisville, where homes range from the established neighborhoods near Old Town to the newer developments in Castle Hills and the apartment communities along I-35E and Valley Ridge Boulevard. Whether you’re in a house, townhome, or apartment, our sitters handle the logistics seamlessly. Discretion isn’t a perk — it’s standard.
Lewisville’s Best Spots for Pet Owners
Lewisville’s combination of lake access, trail systems, and community parks makes it a great city for pet owners. Here are the spots our sitters recommend:
Railroad Dog Park — Part of a park system sprawling over 200 acres. A spacious off-leash park with separate areas for big and small dogs, water fountains, and poop stations. The best part: it stays open until 11 PM, making it perfect for commuters who get home late. One of the best dog parks in Denton County. Just note there isn’t much shade — evenings in summer and all day in winter are ideal.
LLELA (Lewisville Lake Environmental Learning Area) — Over 2,000 acres of prairie, wetlands, and forest along Lewisville Lake. Dogs on leash are welcome on the trails. One of the most expansive and ecologically diverse natural areas in North Texas. A hidden gem for adventure walks.
Lewisville Lake Park — Direct lake access with walking paths, picnic areas, and open space. Dogs on leash are welcome. Great for a weekend outing when you want water views and fresh air.
Old Town Lewisville — The historic downtown area has become increasingly walkable and pet-friendly. Several restaurants offer outdoor patio seating where dogs are welcome. A fun leashed outing for a weekend morning.
Valley Ridge Trail — A paved trail connecting Lewisville neighborhoods and parks. Great for daily dog walks with variety and scenery without needing to drive anywhere.

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 Lewisville 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 Lewisville 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 nearby Highland Village, The Colony, Flower Mound, Carrollton, and Corinth branches provide backup in every direction. 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.
I commute to Dallas and don’t get home until late. Can you do evening dog walks?
Yes. Many of our Lewisville clients are commuters who need later walks. We can schedule visits to fit your actual schedule, including evening walks. Railroad Dog Park even stays open until 11 PM, so your dog can still get exercise and socialization after dark.
I live in an apartment near I-35E. Can your sitters handle that?
Yes. Lewisville has many apartment and townhome communities, and our sitters are experienced with gate codes, key fobs, building access, and other multi-family logistics. We cover everything during the meet-and-greet.

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.
