About: I have grown up with multiple animals, so I feel like I know this lifestyle more than most. I’m extremely fond of dogs, cats, reptiles and even horses! I have raised multiple kittens and puppies so I’m great with all ages. I’m currently working part time, I have many animals of my own that I do take care of but when I watch other people’s animals, my family helps out. I treat other peoples animals like I would my own and care for them all. I’ve trained all of my animals and they are all well behaved. I can give medications as well as a little training if required.

About: I've always loved animals. When someone in my family, one of my friends or even friends of the family or friends of friends needed their cat or dog taking care of I would be the 1 that they called. They knew that I loved them. Even though they weren't mine. I am currently working part-time in the afternoons and evenings. So I have plenty of time to play, walk, and give your pet the care and attention they need, while you are away. Have a fence yard, can have them on a leash, or crate. I'm willing and able to adapt for special circumstances, if needed. Preferred: In the client's home, where the fur baby is more comfortable.

About: I’ve cared and watched over many different breeds of pets. I am a fond advocate of good animal care and strongly against abuse and neglect of any kind. I’m not biased to only dogs, but love animals of every kind. I’m currently working part time and also attend school, but I am not tied down to a 9-5 so I can generally work around things if need be. I have great time management and work well maintaining a schedule/routine. In my home: I will make sure they are well fed as instructed and get plenty of fresh air and socializing with me. In client’s home: I am great at following directions however the client would like or asks of.

Rachel did an amazing job with Dobby. I usually worry about the people that have taken care of him in the past and this time I was able to go on vacation and never worried about a thing. Rachel did everything she could to make sure dobby was taken care of the way I would’ve taken care of him. Hats off, Rachel!!!! I will definitely call on you the next time I am out of town!!

We've booked Makalli several times and even had to change one schedule kind of midstream, and she's always so flexible! She's great about coming over and reacquainting pre-trip if it's been a while since the pets have seen her. And she's wonderful with our shy kitties. She's patient and gentle, giving them space without ignoring them. Also, I always receive pictures and updates on time. For this latest booking, Makalli went above and beyond her pet responsibilities, as we were out of town and someone toilet papered our house. She let us know, then picked up the tp from the yard without our even asking. We are so appreciative and grateful we found her here on Rover! :)

About: Hello!! I’m Brooke, a third -year veterinary student at the Texas Tech School of Veterinary Medicine and a Texas A&M graduate. Caring for animals has always been something I’m passionate about, and I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for just like they would with you. 🩺Experience: I have several years of hands-on experience in veterinary medicine, including working as a veterinary technician in both general practice and emergency settings. I’ve also cared for pets in boarding and shelter environments, so I’m comfortable with a wide variety of personalities, routines, and needs. If your pet requires medications, I’m experienced giving oral, topical, and injectable treatments with care and confidence. ** Any income will go directly toward living expenses and veterinary school loans, so I truly appreciate any opportunities, referrals, or recommendations. Please feel free to message me with any questions or to check availability- I’d love to help! 😊 ** ⭐️Availability⭐️ Weekdays: 7:00-8:00am, 12:00-1:00pm, and evening visits, typically after 5:00pm. This can vary depending on my schedule. Please feel free to reach out if you would like to adjust time frames and I would be happy to make things work for both of our schedules. Weekends: Flexible availability. 📸When you book with me, I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages each visit so you always know how your pet is doing! I know being away from your pets can be hard, so I want to make sure you feel confident and at ease knowing they’re in caring and good hands. ♥️ As a veterinary student, I bring an extra level of knowledge, attention to detail, and awareness when it comes to your pet’s health and wellbeing. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm and gentle approach, I always adjust my care to what makes them happiest and most comfortable. 😊

About: Since I was a kid I took care of the pets in my family and have been trusted by friends to help care for theirs when they’ve gone out of town. I have done training with my dogs so I understand dog behavior. I am a college student at Texas Tech and am off for the summer so I have availability any time and any day of the week for the rest of the summer! For my dogs I set up a loving and safe environment for them so they can roam freely. I spend plenty of time ensuring they are happy and healthy.

About: My name is Magdalena or you can call me Maggie. I’ve been housesitting and doing pet drop in care now for 9 years. I also work for cat and dog rescue with 6 years of experience working with a variety of temperaments, young and geriatric animals. My love for animals started when I was young when I lived on an ostrich ranch near Goodnight, Texas with many farm animals always around. I have some animal husbandry, socializing and taming experience with the dog and cat rescue. I have fostered kittens and cats until an adoptive placement could be found. I am comfortable with small and medium size dogs and cats of all sizes. I can also create add-on fees for other pets such as fish, small furry critters! Your loving pet will be in the best of hands. Cats and Dogs are my world! I have a flexible schedule and I do not have a full time job other than Rover. I take instructions to heart and will strive to provide the absolute best services for your family when I’m responsible for your lovely pets and/or home! I prefer to do a meet and greet before caring for your pets and sitting your house. I want you to be confident I’m a good fit for you and your pets. This also will help me to learn more about their care, their likes and dislikes and to familiarize myself with your home and routine if I’m house sitting or even just doing drop in care. I have experience with medications for both dogs and cats. I have also administered injections for a diabetic dog. I am able to recognize when a pet needs medical care.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 10. Owned many dogs and helped out family/friends over the years! I know the importance of help! I am working full time from home currently and my schedule is flexible. Most weekdays I’ll be available and all day on the weekends too. From walks to drop ins, I always keep safety first. If we approach a dog on a walk, I’ll cross the road to avoid any interactions. While pet sitting, I will follow all instructions you provide and will maintain that your pets are safe.

About: I am a college student majoring in Animal Science, which gives me a strong foundation in animal behavior, health, and proper care. I grew up around a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, horses, and pigs, so I am comfortable caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. My top priority is ensuring that every animal’s needs are met to the highest standard, whether that means maintaining routines, providing extra attention, or adapting care for puppies or senior pets. I treat every animal as if they were my own. I have a pretty weird schedule. My classes run from Monday to Thursday. Most of my classes start at 8, I am willing to get up early to care for your animals. I typically am done with all classes by 4. And I normally have breaks in between, my biggest one is one Monday from 11 to 3. I have a small job every other weekend Saturday through Sunday, and the hours are not fixed. Overall I am available throughout the day, mostly early morning and mid evening. I can work with you on times and all that. I focus on creating a calm, low-stress environment by never forcing interactions. I allow pets to approach me at their own pace so they can feel comfortable and build trust naturally. When appropriate, I use treats and positive reinforcement to help create a positive first impression. My top priority is always making sure each pet feels safe, secure, and cared for just as they would if you were home. I understand the importance of both physical exercise and mental stimulation for dogs through walks and playtime, while also providing patient, attentive care for cats by respecting their routines and comfort levels.

About: With nine years of PROFESSIONAL hands-on experience, not just ownership; in pets of all kinds, I bring a deep passion and expertise to caring for your furry family members. EXPERIENCE: In 2019, I earned my Veterinary Assistant License, which expanded my knowledge in animal care and medical support. Over the course of four years, I worked in both boarding and veterinary services, gaining invaluable experience in managing a variety of pets and understanding their unique needs. Additionally, I spent two years assisting in dog training, helping pets develop positive behaviors and strengthening their bond with their owners. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Agriculture, and I’ve had the privilege of teaching high school Animal Science for 3 years, where I shared my knowledge and love for animals with students. My diverse background allows me to provide top-notch care, from day-to-day sitting to specialized medical and behavioral support, ensuring your pets are always in trusted hands. After moving to Amarillo in 2025 I began working with horses part time and I NOW PET SIT PART TIME. BOARDING: Included in the boarding fun- a BIG FENCED backyard!!! 30+ Toys for pups to choose from. Ease for parents who choose the pickup and drop off add on. Light packing for some; as I have many sanitized kennels, dog beds, and bowls available for no charge. I also pride myself on using the safest vet approved sanitation after each guest and yard treatment bi-monthly. ROUTINES: Pet care is a central part of my daily and weekly routine, and it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. Overall, pet care is woven into my routine, and I stay flexible to meet the needs of each pet I look after. My goal is to make sure your pets have a reliable, consistent caregiver who adapts their schedule to fit what’s best for your furry family member. HOUSE SITTING: When caring for pets in a client’s home, my approach is tailored to meet each pet’s specific needs while ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

About: I know how stressful it can be to find someone to trust with care for fur family-I’ve been there! I strive to make the experience as seamless as possible and communicate as much or as little as requested. I’ve watched and cared for animals since I was a kid from puppies/kittens (bottle feeding) to the elderly sugar faces and end of life care (including administering medications, emergency response, injury/wound care ). I have experience in volunteering in training, doggy daycare, and pet photography I work hybrid (mostly from home) and would happy to fit you into my schedule or as needed/able for both of us. My office location is also only 15 mins away. Weekends and nights work too! On my remote days I can take care of the pets more in-house and full-time. Thanks Quality time will be spend to ensure your pet is loved and I will ensure all food/comforts are taken care of tailored to each owners needs. On my remote days I am able to cater to pets more full-time

About: I have taken care of animals big and small since I was 10 years old! My love for animals has grown so much over the years. I really enjoy playing and running around with all animals big and small. Going on walks in the beautiful weather is my favorite thing to do! I have trained many puppies, as far as potty training, crate training, and basic commands. I have administered medication in all forms, (I used to work for a veterinarian!) bathed them, clipped nails, trimmed fur, etc.. I also currently do volunteer work for the SPCA. I have one beautiful baby of my own she is a Dutch Shepard mix her name is Willow, she is 6! I currently work from home 4 out of the 5 days a week! So if I am staying at your home with your furbabies I will be able to be with them all day long!🥰 Unfortunately I am not able to bring the animals to my home, due to me living with many other animals.. although I would gladly stay at your home as long as your family is comfortable with that, to make your animals as comfortable as possible! I will be sure to love on your fur babies, take them on walks and go to the dog park when the weather is beautiful!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Amarillo

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Amarillo on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 146 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Amarillo. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Amarillo stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Amarillo choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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 .

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Amarillo with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
