“Whitney was absolutely amazing with our 6 month old puppy, Bear. She sent videos and pictures everyday during our week-long boarding, giving us such a peace of mind. We will be using her anytime we go out of town, highly recommend!!”
“Rachunda took excellent care of my baby. When I got there to pick her up her tail was just a wagging and that lets me know Minkah was comfortable with her surroundings. She was also playful with the other dogs. 10/10 would recommend her to friends and family. I will also use her again for my pet sitter.”
“Kelly watched my dog Red for the weekend. They became best friends fast. He didn't want to come home with me he loved her and her family so much. She kept me updated with photos and texts throughout the weekend. Amazing. We will be using her again.”
“Sarah was amazing. She sent updates and pictures every day without asking. She was very understanding and so nice and i could tell that my boy was well taken care of. Would definitely recommend and book again.”

“Brooke was an absolute pleasure to work with. I have a pretty hectic schedule and she remained incredibly flexible and accommodating. My dog, Walden, had a great time at her place too. He has a lot of energy, but slept for hours after I picked him up. Brooke sent me pictures and kept me informed while I was away. I highly recommend Brooke and will for sure use her again!”

About: Hi! I’m Niyah. While I’m new to Rover, I’m not new to caring for pets. I’ve helped family, friends, and neighbors by feeding their pets, letting them out, playing with them, and making sure they felt comfortable while their owners were away. I’m patient, dependable, and know how important it is to treat every pet like family.

About: what sets me apart is not only is this a passion for me i went to school for it. I feel like pet care services should be more accessible cause you know shit happens and having a good pet care system really changes things. Im from Chicago and im currently trying to become an exotic veterinarian or be within vet med sciences. I completed one step by attended fox college vet tech in chicago and trained animals on top of that specializing in fear and aggression. I’ve worked with banfield clinics and have done free service pop ups. i’m never gonna judge just want to be part of your pet caring team. I work for a different company aside from rover and I love it doing the same thing. I went to school for it. its a passion for me. people and animals save each other all the time, thats the stuff that matters. a good pet care system helps foster a good environment. I own pets so i understand all sides. I always follow the instructions given first to me first because every dog and every routine is different. tips and tricks can work for certain situations but at the end of the day, pet parent knows their dog best. How I personally take care of my pets is through getting to know their individual personalities and building a system that runs with my lifestyle, but also taking them to dog parks using plate puzzles to stimulate them, and personal time because, at the end of the day they are just as as much as aware as we are.

About: Long term, short term, drop-ins, walks, you name it. I have been actively providing care to pets since I was in high school and I could not love it more. I cannot remember a time where dogs were not a priority in my life. For the past 5 years, I worked for a family owned boarding facility as a kennel assistant, quickly turned lead, and then to manager! I am fully comfortable with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I can safely administer medications, including topical, oral, and injectable. If your pet needs routine brushing, ear cleaning, eye drops, etc., I am happy to help. I am also very good at a mani/pedi for your pet as long as they are comfortable with it. I will never torture a pet to trim their nails. Most recently, I have been working as a CCR for a large veterinary hospital. If there was ever a concern or I noticed something off with your fur baby, I have an understanding of veterinary medicine and care to help assess the situation and make sure your baby will be okay. My schedule is flexible for new pet friends daily and weekly. My husband and I are new to the area and I currently do not work. I have access to Fort Cavazos for anyone in need on post!
