“This was our first time leaving our dogs in the care of someone other than us. Gabriela did a fantastic job of making them feel comfortable and provided many pictures throughout the day. We will definitely be using her again for future dates!”
About: I’ve spent the at least 10 years caring for dogs of all ages, from tiny puppies learning the ropes to seasoned seniors who just want a cozy nap and some love. I've rescued a few puppers and ended up keeping 2! I’ve helped with basic training, puppy routines, and plenty of playtime in between! I treat every pup like my own — with patience, affection, and lots of belly rubs. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or keeping up with training, your dog will feel right at home. (Currently a dog mom to 1, 8 year old lab mix rescue). Currently working from home with a very flexible schedule! 7am-5pm I may have a few meetings with tons of breaks. I typically do two long walks a day (30 min each) and at least 6-8 potty breaks throughout the day. I like letting your pet tell me what they need in terms of outdoor visits. I like to listen to dog parents and stay within your recommendation! My goal is to make sure your babies are as comfortable as possible.
“Mrs. Kash is awesome with my baby (Lila). She wakes up ready to go to daycare. Definitely found a long term daycare. She communicates and takes great pictures. She worked with my busy schedule with the constant rebooking and changing of dates.”
About: I’ve had dogs around me from childhood through adulthood. I feel like dogs are some of the most loyal creatures on earth that will love you unconditionally. Watching and identifying their various personalities, has been intriguing for me. My dog and I spend a lot of time together. We enjoy walks through Terry Hersey Park a few times a week. We also take the opportunity for him to socialize with others, once a week, at Bill Archer Dog Park. With that being said, even though I don’t currently have a yard, there is plenty of opportunity for any dog I am watching to enjoy taking walks and play time in the outdoors. I currently work remotely, so I have the time to care for your fur baby while you are away. I am looking forward to caring for and getting to know your fur baby! Working from home allows me the opportunity to watch and care for dogs on a weekly basis. Every dog that I board temporarily becomes my responsibility and receive the same level of care as my own dog. Due to limited space, I'm only able to board 1 or 2 dogs at a time. Even though I would love to watch more, it's rewarding to be able give the proper amount of needed attention to each dog.
“Daniela saved me last minute on a day I couldn't find care for my doodle!! She was flexible, warm, and sent awesome updates throughout the day. I could tell my dog fell in love with her and didn't seem to want to leave at the end of the day!”
“Cassandra is amazing! Our dog immediately went with her and seemed to have an incredible time! He came home tired and happy after she took him out on many adventures. We really enjoyed the fun photos she sent of him. She's friendly to people and dogs - perfect situation!”
About: I have grown up a dog lover and when my daughter decided she wanted to be a vet, I became more than a dog lover but an overall, animal lover. I will take care of your animal as if it is my own and be sure to communicate relevant and important information to you as soon as possible. I provide a loving home if you animal(s) need overall care and am respectful of homes if you just need drop in service. It is also important to me to clean up after pets and if only doing dog walking services, to make sure they have had a good walk and a bit of exercise. I want you to receive value for your hard earned money.Love is my language, let me talk to your pets! We love pets! I am currently working from home so your pets will not be left unattended except for an occasional errand run and even then it will be no more than 1-2 hours, if that. I have a fenced yard and plenty of toys and love to give your beloved pet. We can also crate animals as needed and can play soothing bedtime music at night for their comfort.
“Thank you for being flexible and adjusting to our schedule needs. We thought our puppy will be the only one (accepts one pet at a time), but that wasn’t the case. There was another pet, although separated, wasn’t the only pet.”
“Borof loves Tatianna, and playing with her dog Millie. He starts wagging his tail, as soon as he sees her. She sends regular updates, and treats your dog as her own baby. Couldn’t recommend her more!”
“This is a little late in coming but I have to say we absolutely loved Danena! She will definitely be our go to whenever we need our baby watched. In fact, she is so good that I would even consider changing my schedule just so she will be available for taking care of our Chante. Thank you Danena!”

“Cheryn was absolutely phenomenal with my boy, Zuko. It was my first time dropping him off, and I was very hesitant and nervous to do so as I’ve never left him with anyone for an extended period of time before. Any worries I had very quickly faded as Cheryn was so communicative and kind. It’s apparent just how in tune she is with the pups. She was also very accommodating for my last minute bookings and unpredictable schedule. Thank you! I’ll surely be booking you again whenever I’m back in Houston <3”

“Alejandro and Keyla were absolutely amazing with my dogs, From the moment we met them, they were incredibly welcoming, kind, and accommodating, which immediately put both me and my dogs at ease. It’s so clear that they truly enjoy what they do. Chocolate and Banjee were happy, comfortable, and well cared for, which says everything.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Barker
Tran and Anh D took wonderful care of our dog Dudley, and we couldn't be happier! From start to finish, they were professional, responsive, and reliable, communicating with us and putting our minds at ease. You can tell they genuinely care about the animals they look after; Dudley came home happy and well taken care of. If you're looking for a dog sitter who will treat your pet like part of the family, we highly recommend Tran and Anh D to anyone in need of dog sitting services. We'll definitely be booking with them again!
She was so kind and understanding. We got a new pup that had been crated his whole life but we were going out of town just days later.. Stephanie helped potty train him, bathed him when he woke up covered in poop 😵💫 she kept me updated the entire time with pics and texts. We will be booked her for our next trip but with both doggos!
Cassandra is amazing! Our dog immediately went with her and seemed to have an incredible time! He came home tired and happy after she took him out on many adventures. We really enjoyed the fun photos she sent of him. She's friendly to people and dogs - perfect situation!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Barker commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in TX ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
