“Madeline was awesome! She dropped in to see our kitties while we were away for a short vacation. She made sure their food and water was good, spent some time giving them love and pets, and even scooped the litter box, even though I said she didn't have to worry about it. She even fed our beta!”


“Jamie was great and I will definitely use her again. She provided timely updates and pictures. I used her for drop in visits and had no problem trusting her in my home or with my small zoo :)”


“WE LOVE ANN!!! We had never used Rover before and she made it so easy to understand and helped with dates and times along the way. Ann gave us daily updates, spent the time requested with Samson and just made our vacation time worry free! We appreciate you Ann! Thank you!!”


“100% amazing! She is my go to sitter! Would recommend her to anyone! I can travel with one of my dogs, but can’t with the other and Angela does amazing with her and her anxiety! Would recommend to my best friends, and you too!”


“Nicole was very attentive and detailed with her check ins. She provided plenty of information in her visits and took plenty of pictures of our dogs, her communication with us while we were away was excellent. She also took care of our home and cleaned up a couple of accidents while we were away. She is very caring and I would highly recommend her and she will be our first choice in the future should we need sitting services again. Thank you so much Nicole!”


About: As a dedicated pet sitter with hands-on experience, I’ve successfully potty-trained three dogs and spent a couple weeks working alongside a professional trainer to deepen my skills. My goal is to provide your pets with a safe, loving, and structured environment that feels like home. Whether it’s playtime, training reinforcement, or plenty of cuddles, I’m here to make sure your furry family members are well-cared for and happy while you’re away. I work from home a couple of days a week and I’m 5 minutes from my office so I can run home for potty breaks. I love dog walks, throwing the ball or cuddling on the couch. I have a completely fenced yard with a security camera. I will keep the dogs inside unless it’s potty or playtime. I have a Bernadoodle and he sleeps in the bed with me.

“Kat was amazing with Leo! She updated me daily and I had no worries while I was away. Will definitely book with Kat next time I have to leave town.”


“Miki was absolutely wonderful! I’m new to Dallas and was hesitant to use Rover for someone to see about my kitty, but Miki made me feel so at ease! She was so sweet and easy to work with. Moose obviously loved her and was comfortable with her as well. I appreciated Miki’s updates, pictures, and the time she took to play with Moose and get out his energy! I would definitely use Miki’s services again!!”


“Audrianna was amazing especially last minute! Our puppy was having a rough time being home by himself. She came and checked on him and fed him. When our puppy had an accident she helped clean him up which is amazing! Would definitely work with her again! She was fantastic!”


About: I have years of experience taking care of dogs big and small, young and old. From puppies to Seniors and even special needs dogs and I love them all! I can spend all day and night with your furry friends most days, and the few days I can’t I can still spend all morning and the evenings playing with them! These days are Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I carefully read and follow the instructions left by the owners, treat the pups with the same patience and kindness I do my own dogs, and keep the dogs happy and playful. I fit what I do to the dogs age and care needs!

About: Taken care of family dog for years, as well as took care of my neighbors two dogs when they were out of town many different times. I currently work in the office most days, but with afternoons and nights totally open. I am also totally open on weekends for pet care. I have a fenced in yard for dogs to roam around and relieve themselves, as well as plenty of space inside and am very attentive to their needs.

About: I am a Licensed Veterinary Technician with 30 years experience caring for dogs, cats, pet birds, chickens, small mammals, reptiles, and other "non-traditional" pets. In addition to dogs and cats, my own pets have included rabbits, ferrets, box turtles, parrots, finches, and even a Texas spiny lizard! Do you have a senior dog or cat that needs some extra care and attention during the day? Or a special needs pet that has unique medical needs the average person may not be prepared to handle? Or how about a new puppy that needs mid-day potty breaks while you are at work, and could also use a few extra minutes of training to learn good habits? As a Fear Free Certified Professional, I only use reward-based training methods so your pet will look forward to my visits! I currently work full-time from home. My work schedule is unique which gives me the opportunity to provide mid-day walks and drop-in visits, as well as evening check-ins. I value the trust you place in someone to care for your furry, feathered, or scaled family member in the same manner that you would. I have dedicated my life to caring for and providing medical care for other people's pets, and will look after your pets as if they were my own!

About: When it comes to the quality of care I demand for my Chihuahuas when I'm away, I am completely ridiculous. And you should be too! I've been taking the best care of my sweet little pack for over 10 years. I was also heavily involved with rescue and adoptions in my previous community--taking in large and small dogs of all breeds, ages, and from all different types of circumstances. Three of mine are foster fails because I get too attached too quickly; that's why I stopped fostering! I prioritize their safety, health, and happiness above everything. I treat every single one just like they are my own. I take feeding portions, administering meds, and providing all the required kisses and snuggles as seriously as everyone should. Whether it's checking the area for any choking hazards, making sure they get their pill on time or finished all their food, or topping off the water bowl, I'm your guy. Contact me for a meet and greet. I would love to help out whenever you're away. I promise your home and your babies are safe with me! I'm a working professional with flexibility and a passion for taking care of other busy people's furry loved ones when I am able. Available early mornings, after 5 and late nights during M-F. Full availability during weekends. Multiple dogs? No problem for me. My dogs usually have free reign of my house when I'm at work, with bedroom doors closed and no choking hazards lying around. I also converted one of my bedrooms into their room, with toddler beds and a small tv mounted near the floor, with a Furbo camera nearby. They do great in their crates when we're on the road and great in their room with the gate closed if I'm having lots of company over. I feed them twice a day and don't free-feed (because there are a couple of little thieves in the mix!). Whatever your routine or expectations, just let me know and I will be glad to accommodate so that your pet's routine carries on as normal in your absence. It's already hard enough on them when we're away--no need to disrupt their routine more than necessary.

About: I love all dogs, every shape size and personality. I have over 20 years experience taking care dogs cats and even farm animals. I would be very happy to help walk, feed and play with your animal. I specialize in caring for dogs with special needs such as epilepsy. I do work from home so my schedule is very open for feedings, walks, and play time. I am the proud "parent" of an 18 year old Long Haired dachshund mix who suffers from epilepsy so I know all the ins and outs of caring for a sick pup. I am also the mother two tow very energetic Aussie doodles. If your dog needs a little extra TLC I might be the girl to help. Please feel free to contact me for more information. I work from home and my schedule is flexible! I am an early riser and love walking. Taking care of dogs would only bring more joy to my day. I understand how stressful it can be for our animals when their owners are away. I am very patient with animals during this time as I know it can be overwhelming to have someone new taking care of them. I love to tailor the animals care to each specific animal based on their needs, emotional and physical.

“Stephanie did an excellent job of taking care of our dogs while on vacation.”


About: I've owned pets my entire life. I've cared for all of my pets through senior ages, including managing many variations of care/medications, with compassion. I'm looking forward to helping care for others pets since I no longer have one of my own. Being a hands on dog mom for so many years, I understand how difficult it can be to find a trustworthy care taker to match my care expectations, so I'm hopeful to help others that experience the same for their own fur family member. I work from home 3 days a week, so I'm home 5 out of 7 days. I work 4 miles from my home so can make frequent visits on the 2 days I'm in office. I have no other pets or children in the home. I can care for your pet(s) as if they are in your own home. I can provide frequent bathroom breaks, walks, and medication administration.

“Jordan continues to do a great job with our Pup and I would highly recommend her!”


“When it comes to promptness, Jill is the sitter of choice. She came at the agreed upon time (two times a day for a week), sent pictures to document my cat's wellness, provided food and water, administered meds, brought in the mail, etc. It is obvious that she has compassion for animals and takes pride in a job well done. I will not hesitate to use her again!”

I have a fenced in yard. It has a swimming pool but the pet is not allowed without adult supervision. We have a gate to separate the yard for safety reasons. All my dogs are not aggressive.

“Arlie has one of the most pure loves for animals I have ever seen. She grew up with dogs and the love and loyalty those dogs have had for her is so amazing to see. I have known Arlie through some of her busiest and hectic times, and she never fails to do what she knows she needs to do whether it is inconvenient to her or not. I have no doubt that whatever pet she has will be the most loved and cared for animal and that love will go both ways.”

“Joni is the "Dog Whisperer!" She is so knowledgeable about all different dog breeds and is a true dog lover!! My Oreo stayed with Joni, who used to manage a doggy day care, for 2 months while I was recuperating from surgery, and I knew she was in the best care and living her best life! There was always someone home with Oreo, and Joni would send me random pictures and answer my texts within minutes. We love her and won't use anyone else!!”
