House Sitting in Blackland

“I am happy to say this was a top notch experience! Madison was good about communicating, was prompt, sent me pics of my dogs and I was able to get away and not be worried about my Axel and Penny. Very grateful to have found Rover and Madison.”

About: Hi! I’m Camryn, an upcoming senior at Baylor University studying Environmental Studies. I had my own pet sitting business back home and have 8+ years of experience caring for pets, with great references. I’ll be in Waco taking summer classes and would love a summer job doing what I love—caring for animals. I offer 2–3 drop-in visits a day to feed, walk, play, and check in on your pets. I’m reliable, communicative, and will always send photo updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. 🐾 Since all of my summer classes at Baylor are online, I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day. Pet care easily fits into my routine, and I can do morning, midday, and evening drop-in visits. I’m able to be consistent with feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins, and I can adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s specific needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In your home, I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine so they feel secure and stress-free. I follow all care instructions carefully—feeding, walks, medications if needed—and always make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure. I also keep a clean environment and make sure your home is respected while you’re away. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs, giving them lots of attention, playtime, and care while also being mindful of their boundaries. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to create a safe, calm, and trusting environment for both you and your pet.

About: I’m not just a sitter—I live the pet life every day. Between my three dogs, a pig, and a few ducks, I’m used to energy, mess, and all the personality that comes with it. Big dogs, little dogs, sweet pups, stubborn ones—I’ve handled them all. I’ve got six acres for safe running and exploring, plus plenty of time for cuddles when it’s calm. I’ll keep you updated honestly, because I know how it feels to wonder what your pet’s up to. Around here, your dog’s not just watched—they’re part of the crew. Pet care is already part of my daily routine. With dogs of my own, I’m outside and active multiple times a day, so adding your pup into the mix is natural. I work flexible hours and spend most of my time at home, which means I can give plenty of attention, exercise, and check-ins without rushing Caring for pets in my home is simple. If i go outside , we all go outside. If I come inside we all come inside. We all eat breakfast snacks and dinner at the same time. This isn’t something that’s inconvenient or difficult to us. This is our life on the farm.

“Arianna was wonderful, and Piper seemed to really warm up to her and enjoy herself while we were gone. We're thankful for the communication and that the house was left clean after her stay. We will look forward to hiring Arianna again in the future!”

“Brittany is responsive and was super sweet! Would definitely ask her to house sit or watch my pets again, and would recommend her. Everything was as agreed and I appreciated getting updates and pictures!”

“Kim has become one of my FAVORITE people!! She absolutely cared for my pups just like we would (maybe better??!! Haha!!). We have a special pup that doesn’t care for new people too much, and she made her comfortable within minutes. Kim has a super sweet spirit, which is sensed by humans and animals alike. She also pays attention to detail better than most people I know, and never missed a beat on the instructions I left for her. You will not ever want anyone else to watch your fur babies again! I’m looking forward to the next time already!! ☺️”

Mandy Y.

“McKenzie was great! She took everything in stride with our doggies and went above and beyond in caring for them. They took to her right away. She stayed at our house for several days and left all clean and in order. Will definitely ask her again as the need arises.”

Laura J.

“Victoria did a great job taking care of our fur babies Zoe and Zeus! She is very loving and attentive to them. We will definitely call on her again.”

“Whitney was so so so great with our dogs. She was prompt, very thorough, and came through in a pinch. We would definitely have her take care of our pups again.”

Katie H.

“She was really great with my dogs and left my house clean and even got my laundry and dishes started without me asking. It was my first time having a sitter stay at my place, and it worked out well.”

Esther C.

“Sarah was amazing! I needed a last-minute sitter for my dog, Milo, and she came through. She kept me updated the entire time with regular messages and adorable pictures of my pup, which was awesome. Milo absolutely adored her… and if he’s happy, I’m happy! I highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”

About: I started my journey on rover over a year ago. Part of what encouraged me to get into pet sitting was my background. I grew up on farm so my family had a lot of room to foster cats and dogs. There were times we would have 6 dogs staying with us at once, each with their own funny quirks. I fell in love with getting know each of their personalities and taking care of them. Since starting rover I’ve worked with everything: reactive dogs, food aggressive, high energy, senior and disabled. It’s been a great experience getting to know all the dogs. I also have my own sweet puppy named Birdie. She loves interacting with all the clients that come to visit. I’ve had her since she was 2 weeks old and she’s always been a social butterfly. I’ve noticed she helps other dogs staying with us adjust to the environment quicker. She’s very high energy and is guaranteed to wear your pup out. My rates are higher for house sitting and boarding because I accept last minute clients. As for my schedule, I work a full time job and will be gone during normal hours. If your dog requires constant care the rate with go up to $250 a night and I will need at least 2 weeks notice to notify my job. Drop-In’s: For dogs I will not accept bookings that have less than 2 drop-in’s a day scheduled. This is because dogs become stressed when left alone too long and can become destructive. I also want to be able to check on them for health reasons. During the drop-in your dog will go on a walk that equal half the time of the drop-in you have booked (30 min drop-in = 15 minute walk). They will be fed and given water, and the rest of the drop-in will be spent playing inside. Their food bowls will be cleaned and water bowls refreshed. If there are any messes caused by the dog, those will be cleaned up as well. I do offer grooming (I will not do nails or teeth) for $30 extra. Photo’s will be provided at the end of each drop-in. Walks: Dogs will always be walked separately. It will be a 30 minute walk around the neighborhood, and then they will be given water before I leave. I do offer adventure hikes, where I will take your dog to a location of your choosing for a walk. This can include a trail, a public park, a lake, or just to a different neighborhood. There will be an extra charge for any reactivity or excessive pulling, this will come out to about $10 extra.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was five years old, and neighbors trusted me with their pets as early as age 16. I continue to help friends and family by providing walks, playtime, and plenty of comfort and companionship for their pet. I have experience with pets of all ages, from puppies to seniors, and with dogs who have disabilities. Also small animals such as mice, hamsters, bunnies all the way up to Salcuta tortoise , I truly treat every pet like family and believe animals bring peace and joy to our lives. As I write this, I’m sitting for six dogs happily curled up at my feet and in my lap right where they belong. I currently work a shift schedule where I would be available after 2 pm or after 5 am. Hope to make this more of a full time job. Your welcome to contact me and I can let you know my schedule for the week. If needed I can ask off should I be needed for multiple days. In my home, I have a fenced yard that is perfect for both my dogs and my tortoise. I spoil my tortoise with delicious treats and ensure he stays warm in the winter. My dogs are like my kids; I take them for walks, give them treats, and shower them with love. When caring for a client's pet, I strictly follow their instructions. I provide treats if permitted, take them for walks as needed, and offer plenty of affection to ensure they feel loved. My goal is to create a safe and nurturing environment, helping them feel comfortable and at ease while their owners are away.
