About: I have over 10 years of experience providing reliable, loving care for both dogs and cats. My pet sitting journey began over a decade ago, while I was in high school, caring for my neighbors' pets and homes, and over the years, my business has grown through word-of-mouth recommendations through those same neighbors and several coworkers across various jobs, as well as caring for family members' pets. Whether keeping up with energetic dogs, maintaining strict feeding routines, or providing gentle companionship for cats, I pride myself on giving pet parents complete peace of mind while they are away through consistent communication and transparency. Pet care is a top priority in my daily routine. Because I work part-time with flexible hours, I am easily able to adjust my schedule around your pet’s specific needs and feeding routines. Whether your pet needs early morning visits, mid-day attention, evening check-ins, or all day cuddles and companionship, I build my day around ensuring your pet gets timely, uninterrupted care. When caring for pets in your home, I make it my mission to ensure the safety of your pets and your home's security are always met. I treat your home with total respect by ensuring doors, gates, and windows remain securely shut and entry codes/keys are strictly safeguarded. Whether walking dogs on-leash or spending time inside with cats, I am always vigilant about their surroundings and body language. I closely follow all feeding, exercise, and medication instructions, conduct double-checks on doors and fences before leaving, and send detailed updates with photos so you have total peace of mind.
“Maria was fantastic! We left on a weeklong trip and Maria not only took such great care of our pups, but she went above and beyond to spoil them. We appreciate the constant communication and feeling like we could leave out fur babies in great hands! Thank you for everything and we look forward to our next booking with you!”
“Jane took great care of our pets. She kept us updated on our cats health as he’s been experiencing medical complications. She let our aging Doodle cuddle with her. We were very fortunate that she was able to support our last minute request due to the medical issues that popped up right before our trip.”
“We used Arisha for the first time this past weekend for staying at our home with our beloved fur baby as a trial before we went on a longer vacation. My experience was nothing but positive. She was on time. Communicated regularly. Sent photos and left our house as we had left it. I look forward to using her again and have already booked with her. Highly recommend.”
“Connor was an amazing care giver for our Lily Mae. She is a pup who loves attention and thinks she is a lap dog (at 50 lbs) and he gave her all the love she needed and more. He sent lots of pictures and was so good at communicating with us. The house was just as we left it. We appreciate all of this!”
“I can’t recommend Alexa enough! We were already out of state when a severe snowstorm was forecasted. She ended up staying snowed in at our house for several days to take care of our pets. My pets love her, even my very shy cat! I really appreciate how great she is at communicating. She kept me updated with pictures and videos, and made sure to let me know her plans and timing. On top of everything, she left the house in fantastic condition. I’m so thankful for her and would absolutely trust her with my pets again.”
“This was our first time using Luis, while we were out of town for 4 days. Luis kept to the schedule we have for our dog and kept us updated with messages and photos throughout the day. Will definitely as Luis to sit for us in the future.”

About: With about 8 years of dedicated pet sitting experience, I have had the pleasure of caring for a variety of furry friends. I have experience and am comfortable with any size and age of pet. My passion for animals extends beyond simple companionship; it's a commitment to ensuring your beloved pets feel loved, comfortable, and safe while you're away. Whether it's daily walks, cuddle sessions, administering medications, or just providing companionship, I tailor my services to meet the unique needs of each pet. Your pet's well-being is my top priority, and you can trust that they'll receive the same level of care and affection as they do at home. With me, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry family members are in capable and loving hands. I’m currently working part-time as a nanny, only for a few hours 3 days a week, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I’m available on most weekends as well! I always strive to create a comfortable and friendly environment for your pet in their own home. I will take time to introduce myself and get to know your pet in the way they are most comfortable with. My top priority is to tailor to the needs and routines of your specific pet based on information you provide me.
“Amy was wonderful, it gave me such a peaceful feeling that she was doing such a great job taking care of our babies and home. I will definitely use her again on our next trip.”
About: My Guarantee - Stress Free, Worry Free, Care For Your Pet Hi, I'm Summer. I've been involved in pet care since I could walk, and caring for our pets became second nature to me. As an adult, I wanted to make this my career. I am dedicated to each and every pet left in my care. You and your pet will always receive top notch service. I am currently a stay at home mom so your animals will have plenty of exercise and love. If you have a specific routine I will follow it to a tee. I have a very friendly, high energy dog to keep your dog company and entertained. Sticking to there routine is key and making sure they are exercised to get there energy out.
“Cheyenne was so awesome! She watched our babies for about a week at our house and did an amazing job. Cheyenne loved on our dogs, sent pictures, and made sure they had a lot of playtime. I will definitely book her again!”
“Tom is a gem and we were lucky to find him after our relocation to East Texas. We left our home knowing that our babies were in good hands. Tom was respectful of our property and we were very comfortable being away. It was a fantastic experience.”
About: I’ve had various pets in the span of my life including cats,dogs,hamsters,gerbils, guinea pigs,fish, and frogs. I’ve always had a passion for caring for animals, and have experience working in a vet clinic for 3 years, as well as an animal sanctuary. I’ve always enjoyed pet sitting for friends and family, and have cared for blind and diabetic dogs, as well as ones with behavioral issues. One of my cats has separation anxiety, and I know what it’s like to worry and not want to leave your babies alone. I will give them plenty of love and entertain them while you’re away! And as I currently don’t own a dog, I would love nothing more than a furry friend to spend time with! I’m currently working part time and my schedule is very flexible throughout the week! I’m typically available to check in on your pet up to 3 times a day. As a pet owner myself, I understand worrying about them while being away. I’m a very reliable person that would give the upmost care and love for your baby. I would love to send updates and pictures to you often to give you peace of mind! I’m also very willing to do the small household chores like cleaning cages/litter boxes/ any messes they may make.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Anna
Cheyenne was great with our pup, giving him the love, care, and attention we couldn’t while we were away for a week+. She sent frequent updates (at least 2x a day) with lots of pictures and also kept an eye on things around the house for us. We’ll definitely hire Cheyenne again in the future and would recommend her to anyone looking for dog care/house sitting.
Our dogs absolutely love her, and that says everything! 🐾❤️ We are so grateful to have found someone we trust completely with our fur babies. Acacia is dependable, kind, communicative, and truly goes above and beyond. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her, and she will definitely continue to be our first choice whenever we need someone to care for our boys!
I always LOVE having Alexa house sit for us! The pups just love her and she takes amazing care of them and our home!!! My heart is at ease knowing she is there!!! It gives me great comfort to have Alexa, especially the extra care she gives my 17 year old girl! :))
I can not say enough kind things about Arisha. She made me feel so at ease being away from my cat, Ollie, WHO ABSOLUTELY ADORES HER BTW. 🥹 I am so thankful to have found such a kind and trustworthy person all around who treats your animal no different than how she would treat her own babies! Can’t recommend her enough ❤️
This was my first time using Rover, and Alejandra made the entire experience so easy and stress-free. From the moment we met, she made me feel completely comfortable leaving my dogs in her care. She came by before my trip to meet them, asked thoughtful questions, and made sure she understood their routines and needs. Throughout my time away, she sent detailed updates and lots of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. She also took great care of my home, even letting me know when packages arrived and bringing them inside for me. I couldn’t have asked for a better first Rover experience. I will absolutely be booking with Alejandra again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to care for their fur babies!
Miranda is such a thoughtful sitter. Our dog Kenji is still learning to be out in the house by himself for long periods of time. She is a life saver when we need someone to come stay at home with him while we go out to dinner when we’ve been entertaining family or guest. Definitely recommend her.
Jane took great care of our pets. She kept us updated on our cats health as he’s been experiencing medical complications. She let our aging Doodle cuddle with her. We were very fortunate that she was able to support our last minute request due to the medical issues that popped up right before our trip.
Brittany was incredible taking care of our 4 fur babies. We were impressed with her energy and excitement during our meet and greet. She took notes on instructions and followed them exactly. She kept us informed through pictures and videos which were truly appreciated. Great young lady, very energetic, personable, trustworthy and respectful. Highly recommend and will use her again. Great Job Brittany and Thank You

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Anna walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Anna maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Anna 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!
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. 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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
