“My lab mix loves staying with Laura! She is great with dogs and is easy to communicate with...always responds within 15 minutes. My travel plans kept changing, but she was very accommodating. Highly recommend!”

About: I've owned dogs for over 20 years and have pet sat friend's and families pets over the years. I have experience with big and small dogs. I am a stay at home parent so I have all day and night to spend with your pup. They can cuddle up on the couch or go to their kennel and lay if they prefer isolation. We have a pool so if they like to swim we can definitely do that. We go on morning walks and sometime evening walks so your pup would be part of our pack and get some exercise. I will be more than happy to send you pics and updates during the stay. I have a fenced in yard with a pool if your dog likes to swim. I also have a fixed dog friendly dog your pup can play with. They will not be unsupervised during any play activity.
“Reba had an open space for Molly. She was very thorough in finding out everything Molly needed. She kept me informed frequently with Mollys time with her with videos, pictures and updates.”
“A great pet sitter for my senior dog!! My dog is old and for the first time in over 13 years we felt it was best we didn’t take her on the family trip with us as it would be too much on her. Abby gave her the love and peacefulness she needed! She went above and beyond and even made her a necklace, gave an bath, and sent photos of her stay! Highly recommend!”
“Mary & Khamtane were great with my puppy Cody 😁 provided updates and pictures throughout Cody’s stay. Definitely I recommend them, and will definitely book them again.”
“Emi was wonderful! She took great care of Dolce in her home and sent daily pictures and updates, which I really appreciated. Dolce got plenty of time at the dog park and looked happy and well cared for throughout her stay. It was such a comfort knowing she was in good hands. We would definitely book with Emi again!”
“Flor was awesome! Very accommodating, well communicated and very patient when it came to my dogs needs. Will definitely book with her again when we’re back in town.”
“Thank you, Michaiah, for taking such great care of my sweet baby boy, Creed. I truly appreciate all the updates, pictures, and videos you sent while I was away. You went above and beyond, even offering to replace the toy he chewed up! That let me know he was comfortable, happy, and truly enjoyed himself. Thank you for loving on my baby and giving me peace of mind while I was away!”
“Very pleased with Michael and Dara. This was the first time I had to leave my two dogs with a pet sitter. They made me feel comfortable and less worried. I have a dog who needs meds twice a day and can be terrible about taking them. Michael made it work and kept his schedule. I received pictures and updates every day.”
“I can't recommend Lauren highly enough as a dog sitter! From the moment we met, I could tell she was a true animal lover. She took the time to get to know my pup, understanding her needs and preferences, which put my mind at ease immediately. I was amazed that she offered us a meet and greet prior to booking! During her time with my pup, Lauren provided exceptional care. She was punctual, responsible, and communicated regularly with updates and adorable photos. It was clear that my dog was not just being watched, but truly enjoyed her company. When I returned home, my pup was happy and healthy, and it was obvious she had a great time with her. Lauren went above and beyond, ensuring that all of her needs were met and that she felt loved and comfortable. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and fun for your furry friend, Lauren is the perfect choice. I will definitely be booking her again in the future!”
“Neel and his family are very nice and supportive. Can’t express how grateful I feel to have them care for Cheese. They shared pictures/videos to us every day. Sydney is now the best friend of Cheese for sure. They sent Cheese to the vet when he does not feel very well. Communication is very easy. Will definitely be back in the future! Thanks Neel!”
About: I have taken care of both puppies and elderly dogs since a child. My mom competed in dog shows all over the U.S and Canada where I would take care of the dogs. I am cpr and first aid certified. I have taken care of horses, dogs, cats, sheep and goats! Your pet will never be home alone for long as there is continuous care. My husband works from home and I am a teacher so your pet will have the care they need! I have a fenced in yard and small cat who stays upstairs. The downstairs is laminate flooring so accidents aren't a problem. I can take your dog on a walk everyday for 2 miles if needed.
“Emily B. and family took impeccable care of our two dogs. We received frequent picture and video updates, and the whole process was amazingly simple. We were able to be out of the country knowing Ranger and Winnie would be loved and cared for.”
“Sudha and family took great care of our pet while we were out of town. They were responsive and sent updates of our dog regularly. We would recommend them to anyone.”
“Had a very good experience with Noel. My plans fell through last minute and Noel was super accommodating and was able to take my dog in on such short notice. He was always very responsive, answering within minutes and he kept me updated while I was away with a lot of photos. Would definitely recommend Noel to anyone in need of a knowledgeable and caring dog sitter!”

If I could add another 10 stars I would. Wendy not only connected with my babies, she made me very comfortable with leaving them with her. Her updates were frequent showing us how at home our babies were. I would definitely arrange future ventures around her availability.

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 .
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.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
