“Enya was great! I was super nervous because I've never left my pups with someone I didn't know, but she came over ahead of time to meet the dogs, and during the entire stay kept me updated. I am so happy we hired her, and I will definitely be using her again! Absolutely best experience know my dogs were well loved and taken care of while I was away.”


About: I’ve always had an abundance of dogs and cats all throughout my life. I’ve always had large breed dogs, but I am no stranger to small breeds as well! I’ve had puppies and senior dogs, so I have experience kind of all across the board. I have four kittens that I raised and bottle fed, as well as senior cats. I have been pet sitting for family and friends since I was 13. I also have experience as a veterinary technician! I am comfortable administering medication if your pet needs it. I will love your pets like they’re my own, and I am very accommodating to your schedule! I am starting nursing school in August, but until then I am completely free to take care of your pets. Once I start school, my schedule will change slightly, but I will still be available! I, unfortunately, cannot offer boarding, but I am more than happy to offer house sitting, overnight care, and drop in visits during the day as needed. Whatever your pet needs, I am willing to do it! I can stick to a strict feeding and medication schedule if needed. I will play with your pets, or just have a lazy day if couch potato is more their style! If your pets go out at certain times, get crated, or have to be separated for feeding, I can do it. If your pet is a bit skittish with new people, I will take the time to have them get comfortable with me and avoid stressing them out in an already stressful situation. They will be in great hands 🩷
“Tania was a great dog sitter! She provided plenty of updates/pictures of the dogs! She watched my two Great Danes and left the house so tidy! I would hire her again, and y’all should too.”

Let mr know the dates & times you are needing and i will get back to you right away. I will not offer boarding, but can be available for home visits, walks or other that you will needed if you are working or away.
“Kelley was amazing. She took care of our two dogs (one was puppy who is very high energy and doesn't give you a moment of peace) and bird for 2 nights. I know the puppy ran her ragged. Loved the pictures we received each day. The house was clean upon our return and the dogs (and bird) were happy and obviously well cared for while we were away. I highly recommend Kelley.”

“Julie was amazing! We are new to using this site and were very apprehensive about who we chose to house & pet sit for us. We couldn’t have gotten luckier choosing Julie. She provided very reliable & frequent updates and followed our instructions. It was so great to have peace of mind leaving our babies in her care!”

About: I've been around animals all my life. My family has always called me the pet whisperer and asked me to care for they're pets when gone I work part time at tractor supply, on my off time I will be volunteering at animal shelters and doing a internship. When that not going on I would love to earn extra money to care for my bunny and spoil him I am a very active person always willing to excercise your animals and play with them all while making sure they're well taken care of
“What a TREASURE DEE is for our family! We were a little nervous starting out because our dogs can be "iffy". But she came over, met Bella, Tiny and Duke ... and they understood her right away. She showed up every day just as she said and was generous with them and gave them plenty of time to run and play. Our trip to Chicago was relaxing because we could see our pets in the pictures she sent and they were happy as can be. One more trait that Dee has ... I really appreciate. She has experience with a wide range of dogs and our dogs range from mini-dachshund to Pyranese mix ... with a quirky border collie in the mix. She was skilled, caring, on time and a great communicator! What more could we ask for?”
“Bailey was absolutely fantastic! She came to our rescue at the last minute and took great care of our babies. We were in such a rush, and I don't think I prepared her as well as I should have, but she handled everything like a pro. We truly appreciated her help. Thank you so much, Bailey!”

About: I have over 2 years of experience dog sitting, along with a lifetime of caring for my own dogs. I understand how important it is to give your pets the same love and attention I give my own! On walks, I practice proper leash etiquette to keep dogs safe and comfortable, and I always follow feeding and care instructions closely. I truly enjoy spending time with pets, whether that’s playtime, walks, or just quiet companionship. I also have experience caring for dogs who are sick or in their final stages of life, providing them with patience, comfort, and compassion. My goal is to give every pet the care and attention they deserve while giving owners peace of mind. I am pursuing a career in dog grooming. Rover gives me even more opportunities to grow in the pet care career path! I am pretty open right now, I focus on pets full time! When caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and happy by following their normal routines as closely as possible. I provide plenty of attention through walks, playtime, and companionship, always practicing proper leash etiquette and respecting feeding or medication instructions. I create a calm, caring environment where pets feel secure, whether they’re playful, need a little extra patience, or are in delicate stages of life, so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are well cared for.
“As always, Rachel did a fantastic job taking care of our babies (2 dogs & 4 cats). They are so comfortable with her staying while we are away. She gives us peace of mind and lets us enjoy our vacation without worrying.”

About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was 8 years old. My black lab is the happiest dog on earth. I’ve pet sat for family friends, relatives, and people I’ve only met once. I have a pretty diverse scale as well having pet sat bunnies, cats, birds, and dogs. I am a division one soccer player at the University of North Texas and while soccer is my top priority, the spring time is my time I can work. I will only have practice for 2 hours on weekdays. I can easily crate your dog if needed, I follow instruction very well, I’m a fast learner, and I’m also a very energetic and positive person.
About: I have taken care of pets for neighbors, family, and friends since 2014, most often as a sitting while the owners are out of town. I work 32 hours a week as a nanny and have a split schedule; this will allow me to visit your pets during breaks between work shifts in the morning, afternoon, and evenings. I am available to stay overnight as well. I love caring for my pet Rex. I love to give him treats, toys, take him on walks, etc. Anything to keep him feeling engaged and enriched. I am very mindful of his behavior and have learned what he needs based on how he acts. I will pay this much attention to detail with your pets!
“I am so thankful I found Gabriel!!! I was not worried about my dogs for 1 second on vacation because I felt so confident that he was taking great care of them. When I returned, my dogs were happy and worn out from all their walks, and my house was cleaner than it was when I left! I have already booked Gabriel for another stay!”

Enya was absolutely AMAZING with our dogs while we were away for a full week! From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such loving and capable hands. She stayed in our home and treated it — and our pups — with such care and respect. Every single day she sent thoughtful updates along with the sweetest photos. Seeing their happy faces and wagging tails meant the world to us and made being away so much easier. It was clear they were not just being “watched,” but genuinely loved and cared for. We came home to relaxed, happy dogs and a home that was just as we left it. That speaks volumes! Enya goes above and beyond, and we would trust her again in a heartbeat. If you’re looking for someone reliable, communicative, and truly compassionate with animals, Enya is the one. We couldn’t recommend her more highly! 🐾💕

Enya was great! I was super nervous because I've never left my pups with someone I didn't know, but she came over ahead of time to meet the dogs, and during the entire stay kept me updated. I am so happy we hired her, and I will definitely be using her again! Absolutely best experience know my dogs were well loved and taken care of while I was away.

Enya was a consummate professional and dutiful caregiver for my cat while I was away. She was kind, communicative, and patient earning my cat's trust and showing her love and affection while house sitting. I'd recommend her services to anyone in need of a trusted pet service professional.
