“An amazing job with our Phoebe from a late booking to early drop off and great recommendations for first time family pet owners. Gabriela set us at ease and kept us updated with pictures. Phoebe was able to play with other furry friends, who she was afraid of before. Overall very satisfied!”
About: Hi! I'm a dependable, caring, and attentive pet sitter who understands how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else's care. I'm patient, responsible, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable in their usual routine. I can help with feeding, walks, playtime, bathing, overnight stays, and regular photo updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to give your pets the same care and attention I'd want for my own while giving you peace of mind when you're away. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family! 🐕🐾🤍 I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I enjoy staying active, so walks, playtime, and keeping pets on a consistent routine fit naturally into my lifestyle. I'm available for walks, doggy day-care and overnight stays. I make it a priority to follow each pet's individual needs and their owner's instructions. I also value communication and providing regular updates so owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets. I take the time to understand each pet's personality, routine, and specific needs. I always follow the owner's instructions for feeding, walks, medication, and other care. I keep pets in a clean, safe environment, supervise them carefully, and make sure they receive plenty of affection.
“Shadow had her first July 4th and she spent it with Victoria. She updated me on how she was doing with all the noises and I couldn’t be more thankful knowing Shadow was somewhere safe!”

There's no waiting for a sitter to arrive or worrying about gaps in care—your pet is looked after around the clock in my home. I'm happy to work around your schedule to make pet care as convenient as possible for you. I host pets in my home—a safe, comfortable space designed with your pet's wellbeing in mind. My 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom house is fully pet-proofed, and since I live alone, your pet has plenty of room to wander, explore, and make themselves at home. I have a fenced-in yard where cats and dogs can enjoy the outdoors safely. Since I work from home, your pet is never alone—they have constant supervision and companionship throughout the day and night. Your pet can roam freely between indoor and outdoor spaces at their own pace. Whether they want to nap, play, or simply relax, they have the comfort and security of a home environment rather than a kennel. I'm here to monitor their needs, provide meals on schedule, and give them the attention and care they deserve. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priority.
About: My 10 and 13 year old kids beg for Rover visits so they can play with and love on your dog(s). We also have a 5 yr old male lab and a 1 yr old female English pointer who are super friendly, playful, and energetic with all types of dogs. I've personally owned and handled dogs all my life, which required everything from basic to advanced training (from basic obedience to hand signals & whistle commands). My experiences have given me a broad understanding of dog behavior and temperament, and I'm comfortable with dogs of any size, age, and drive. While your pet is in our care, it will be treated like our own. If lots of play and/or attention is what your dog wants/needs, it is sure to get plenty in our home. My schedule is very flexible and so I can be sure to be around when pet sitting. In addition, we have 2 mature and responsible children who love helping to take care of others' dogs. We have a fenced yard with room to run and plenty of dog toys. We also have 2 very playful and friendly dogs of our own, so boredom and lack of stimulation would never be a problem. Plus, we have 2 very playful, dog-loving children who can provide calm and comforting attention if that is what is needed for an older or more timid dog. We are happy to provide specific accommodations for your pet as well, including crating at certain times of the day/night, neighborhood walks, etc.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
97% of sitters in Abernathy can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Abernathy home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Abernathy.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Abernathy. On Rover:

You and your Abernathy sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in TX ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
