“Fantastic. We could not be happier with Xe’Nedra. She did a wonderful job. I would use her again with total confidence. We were gone for a week and she checked on and petted our cat keeping him happy.😻”
“Carrie is the best!! She went out of her way to make sure our pets were in amazing care while we were out of town. Our indoor cat likes to escape and the handyman accidentally let her out… I asked Carrie if she could go check on her, and she went over to our house without any hesitation and rescued our girl! She’s simply the best 😊”
“Kylee did a great job caring for Meeko & Winston. She had good attention to detail, especially with their routine along with Meeko’s medications. Thorough & useful notes on the daily card.”
“Kellie did an amazing job on the drop-in visits with our two cats! I love my girls very much, so having someone trustworthy to check in on them while we were out of town meant a lot to me. It made my entire night getting back to the hotel on our wedding night to see the sweet updates they wrote about them both! Fell asleep with an even bigger smile on my face than I already had! Thanks so much for taking care of our babies! Would highly recommend them to anyone and everyone. :)”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! She was extremely thoughtful, caring, and helpful, and she took all of our instructions seriously. Most importantly, she somehow won over our very difficult and anxious cat, Gigi, which is no small feat! When a shelf unexpectedly broke while we were away, she handled everything very calmly and responsibly. Cannot be more thankful. We absolutely recommend her and would love to have her sit for our cats again! ❤️”
“Layla and Gracie provided a drop-in for my 3 pups. They were very prompt, loving, and provided some great pics. I’m looking forward to their overnight stay here soon, knowing my dogs are in great hands.”
“Marsha was amazing. Her photos and comments after each check-in gave me so much reassurance while I was away. I would not hesitate to put my cat in her capable and wonderful hands again. I am so thankful.”
“Kyle was amazing! He provided drop ins for my 3 dogs while I was out of town with only a few days notice. He was willing to stop by for a meet and greet a few days before I left so I was able to walk through their routine with him. He also sent several pictures of my dogs during his check ins. Honestly, some of the best pictures I have of them and they always looked so happy in each of them. Will definitely be booking again.”
About: Howdy! I’m a 3rd generation Austinite. 6th gen. Texan. I already have much experience working with clients. I have worked for WAG! in Austin, TX. I have two older boys in the Colorado River Collegiate College in Bastrop. I now live and run Rumfield Electric LLC with my husband in Bastrop. We are members of The Bastrop Chamber of Commerce. I have 20 years experience with owning my own dogs (2 Pit Bulls & Chihuahua) and have a couple of years work experience at a pet store in Austin caring for fresh and salt water fish, rabbits, rats, and lizards. I also have years of experience with exotic birds, farm ducks, and chickens. I own 2 pit bulls and lab Rot mix. I am a Certified and Registered Pharmacy Tech with the State of Texas with pet med knowledge. My ultimate goal is to help stop dog homelessness. I work part-time for my husband’s electrical company. I'm available everyday except Sunday mornings until 1p. I love to run with your dog if that's what they need. I can feed, replenish water, clean bowls, and give treats or even baths by request. Brush your dog's coat and teeth. Wash and dry beds or towels. Give pet meds. Do some light shopping for the dog or you! Vet trips if needed. I'm basically looking for long time clients. I pay close attention to detail and strive to follow any requests and directions with complete care. I’m always in communication with my clients and I am available for my clients to reach me day or night.
About: Growing up in the country, I have grown up with all sorts of animals (dogs, cat, rabbit, cows, longhorns). However, dogs have been the animal with me throughout my entire life. We got our first family dog when I was 6 and have had 3-10 dogs at a time since then! Needless to say, I'm definitely a dog person. I have experience feeding, walking, and washing dogs, and can do some basic self-taught training (sitting, down, shake). I also have house-sat and pet-sit for some family friends' and my friends' parents on several occasions. My house is full of animal love. I have a 3-year-old Plott hound mix (named Nova), a 4-year-old German Shepard (named Goose), and a 8 month old cat (named Ary). They all have their own special quirks, but are so funny and love running and playing! Nova is very food motivated and loves to run in circles and play in water, Goose is very toy motivated and could play frisbee for hours without a break if we let him, and Ary is the definition of a "lap cat" but loves being our pest control when she see an bug. I hope you give me the chance to give your fur babies some extra love and attention! I'm a full-time social worker! I can provide overnight visits whenever, but walking and drop-ins are only available on weekends and then during school scheduled breaks (my availability will reflect it)! In my home, one of my dogs is crated due to her liking to get in the trash. So, I am easily able to crate your dog if necessary and of course feed, water, play, and walk them as needed! Also, more than willing to send you pictures of your dogs throughout the visit if that's something you want :)
“+++++ Buttons and Roy were extremely well cared for by Stephanie and her helper. We came home to very happy and content furbabies. Stephanie has prompt and excellent communication skills and we never worried once about what was going on at home. We would highly highly recommend Stephanie's services! Thank you...thank you!”
“Virginia does a great job! She is an animal lover and takes excellent care of our cats when we are away. Thank you for the Peace of Mind Virginia! It is also nice that everything is managed via Rover. She is very professional and does a great job caring for the cats and following instructions. 5 stars! Excellent service”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for 20 years. I have all kinds of experience with different dogs and different temperaments. I am very patient and kind. I am a stay at home mom so I am home all the time. We have 3 dogs, a 10 year old border collie Australian cattle dog mix, a 5 year old blue heeler and a 5 year old chihuahua. All very sweet dogs and all absolutely love to play. I have a fenced in yard and 3 dogs to keep your dogs company. Lots and lots of play time. I can crate your dog or keep them separated if needed. We allow our dog to sleep in the bed with us so we do not mind if your dog needs to sleep in the bed. I have easy access to walking trails and can walk your dogs if they need some extra exercise.
“Tamara did a great job feeding our three cats, including a high maintenance one. Sent pics and everything was clean and cats did great. Relieved to know we can depend on her in the future, thanks!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Bastrop
Jessica is truly the best cat sitter we could ask for. She consistently goes above and beyond every single time she cares for our cats. Not only does she make sure they are fed, comfortable, and well taken care of, but she also pays attention to all the little details that give us so much peace of mind while we’re away. She sends thoughtful updates, keeps us in the loop, and treats our home with so much care and respect. She’s even helped with things like bringing in packages and checking on things around the house, which means so much when you’re traveling. Our cats are very different personalities, and she handles both of them so patiently and lovingly—it’s clear she genuinely cares. Knowing they’re in her hands allows us to fully relax when we’re gone. We trust Jessica completely and feel so lucky to have found her. Highly, highly recommend!
A True Lifesaver We are beyond grateful for Sarah. She stepped in with less than 12 hours’ notice during a true family emergency and absolutely saved us. We live out of state, and our senior citizen parents were in a horrible car accident during Thanksgiving. They suddenly couldn’t care for their 25+ pets, cats, turtles, and fish, and we couldn’t get to them right away. Sarah immediately stepped up and took care of every single animal with so much kindness and thoroughness. She made sure everyone was fed, cleaned, and cared for, and she communicated with us the whole time so we had complete peace of mind. She even offered to bring food over for my father-in-law, who is still on bed rest while his wife remains in the hospital. Her compassion truly went above and beyond anything we expected. Sarah is an absolute angel to our family. Her kindness, reliability, and genuine love for animals mean more than we can express. We 100% recommend her and are forever grateful for her help during one of the hardest moments of our lives.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.

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 .
