Pat was amazing! She is very caring and put our cat first. She provided great updates when we were away and knew our cat was being taken care of well by Pat. We will be booking her again in the future.

Thank you so much, Courtney, for being so accommodating and flexible! I had some work-related issues and needed to move appointments around - I really appreciated how understanding you were regarding these changes!!! Thank you for taking care of my babies while I was away and making sure that they are well without me here!

Justice is always great with Gizmo and was sure to send me plenty of photos of him during his visit. Gizmo is partial to men and he definitely enjoys Justice's company. Justice makes my nervous boy feel at ease when I am out of town. He is definitely one of the best sitters and one of the few men in my area offering pet sitting services. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs a great sitter!

Kristin D. provided excellent care for our dogs during our absence. Being first-time leave-at-home pet owners, we were initially hesitant, but Kristin diligently sent us regular photo updates, which greatly reassured us. We are highly satisfied with her service and intend to engage her again in the future.

We were looking to board our dogs but the expense was above our budget and because our three pups can be a handful sometimes and are not very sociable boarding was out. Someone told me to check out Rover for a house sitter to watch our dogs in our house. We were skeptical at first because we never heard of Rover and house sitting dogs. Anyway I searched the adds on Rover and found Julie, she had lots of 5 star reviews, many return customers and lived somewhat close to us. I got in contact with her and she stopped by to say hello and set up an hour to meet and greet our dogs. She was right on time and very confident she would have no problems with our dogs, turns out she was right. She handled our dogs like the seasoned professional she is, it was very impressive. we're very thankful to find her and I would certainly recommend her to anyone looking for an alternative to boarding, we intend on using her many times in the future

We are so grateful we found Mikelah! We were nervous about leaving our dog Sophie with anyone besides family or friends, but she made the entire experience so comfortable and stress-free. She was beyond amazing with our pets, very communicative, punctual, and thoughtful throughout every visit. Her photo updates were honestly the best and gave us peace of mind while we were away. You can truly tell she cares about the animals she watches. We will absolutely be booking with her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!

Brittney is amazing. She took such great care of my blind and deaf 17 year old chihuahua. I know there were likely a lot of accidents to clean up. She also gently guided her around my yard for additional potty breaks and some fresh air. I didn't have to stress at all on my vacation because twice a day I could look forward to reading about her visit and getting pictures of my fur babies. To my great surprise, she even befriended my cat, who is usually very scared of people and goes into hiding when someone new is over. But she let Brittney pet her and visit with her too! Thank you so much, I will definitely contact Brittney for my pet sitting needs in the future.

About: Hi, I’m Gabriella — a dependable and compassionate pet sitter with a genuine love for animals of all kinds. I’ve been working with animals since 2018 and am experienced with both dogs and cats, from playful, energetic pets to shy or senior companions who need extra patience and care. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, cuddles, medication reminders, or simply giving your pets attention and companionship, I treat every animal like they’re my own. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in caring, trustworthy hands. I currently have full-time open availability for drop-in visits, doggy daycare, and dog walking for both cats and dogs. I’m also able to keep pets on a consistent routine schedule during the days I’m booked with them to help them stay comfortable and adjusted. I have a fenced backyard and can accommodate specific care instructions based on your pet’s home routine, especially for drop-in visits. I’m also able to provide neighborhood walks or trips to dog parks depending on what’s best for your pet and their comfort level.

About: I have my own personal dog, Quinn. She is a 7 year old rescue pit bull. I got her during covid and we have been attached at the hip since then. I have taken care of my sisters dog who is a frenchie and from taking him on short walks to feeding him his meds in meat, I was always there for him. I have also taken care of my in laws dog when they go on vacation and make sure she is loved and cared for while they are gone. I am very reliable, follow any directions given by the book, and love all animals that come my way. I am a teacher going on summer vacation so my availability will be more open. Every morning I wake up and I take my dog out on her walk and potty break. When I come back in, I feed her and also give her water before I go to work. Afterwards, we lounge around the house or sometimes I take her to the dog park. Then in the afternoon, on her routine, I take her out for her last potty break, and her last walk of the day. When taking care of other pets, I make sure to follow their specific directions they leave me. I have dealt with dogs that have a specific diet, medicines they have to take, or extra energy they have to let out.

This was our second time booking Sam, and once again, he was fantastic. He’s incredibly reliable and took great care of our dog, Roberta, while we were away for a quick weekend trip. I was especially nervous this time because our longtime dog, Noah, recently passed away, and this was Roberta’s first time being left alone. Sam was thoughtful and attentive—he sent lots of adorable photos that showed she was happy, relaxed, and getting plenty of playtime. One thing that really stood out was that he left a kind little personal message on our doorbell camera before leaving. It was such a simple gesture but meant a lot. It showed us how much he genuinely cares. Sam treats our home and our pets with respect and kindness. He’s great with animals, communicates well, and gives us real peace of mind. We trust him completely, Roberta adores him, we look forward to the next time soon! Thank you again Sam! :)

About: For years I have dog sat for family, friends and coworkers. I just love pets, I’m kind of crazy about them. I’m looking to expand my doggie adventures with nice walks and plenty of exercise. I’m also available for drop ins and overnight stays. I work near the airport, so I also pet sit in the Stone Oak/Hollywood Park area. I’m currently working full time for an engineering firm, Monday through Friday. I’m available Saturdays and Sundays pretty much all day. I’ll be available a few days during the week, but after 5 pm and maybe during lunch (depending on distance). I won’t be offering boarding services, but I do have three pets. My dog is 7, two cats are 9 and 5. My dog, Sadie Girl, loves taking walks and people watching. So, I will definitely care for your pets as if they were mine.

Hannah was great with my cat. He warmed up to her immediately and was great with him while I was gone. I was nervous since it was my first time leaving him overnight, and I was gone for over a week. But he did well under her care. And she went above and beyond by cleaning around his litter box, taking out the litter box's trash when needed, and more. If I need to go on vacation again, I'm glad to know I have someone I can rely on to look after him again.
