“Jessica did a wonderful job of taking care of my two dogs while I was out of town. She sent the cutest photos and I felt at ease being away from them. I would definitely reach out to her for future sittings.”
About: I have grown up taking care of cats and dogs, and have a personal interest in animal behavior! In the middle of my psychology undergraduate degree, I take my work and compassion very seriously. And as a mother of 3 fur babies, I can assure the upmost amount of care from my end! I have plenty of time for your pet(s)! I am available 5 days out of the week, and am committed to making sure every minute is worth it for them and you! I am able to transport your pet to cooler and comfortable locations they may enjoy, or always stay in your neighborhood! I also accommodate to different communication methods and requests for your comfortability.
“She was able to help me out last minute which was very appreciated! We had to stay an extra day so I was stressed about the dogs but her willingness to help made me feel so relieved. Will be using her again!!”
“I highly recommend her! She is very accommodating with my schedule and sends daily updates with nice messages about what's new. She is very responsible. She deep cleaned after my dog peed on the wood floor, mopped it up, replaced the training pad, fed her daily, and shared pictures as proof.”
“Rory was great with my two small pups, and they're the skittish type! She was real sweet wuth them, and jept me in the loop through out the visits. I'll definitely be using her again <3”
About: At one time we had 7 dogs. All rescues. As my kids moved out so did their dogs. 🐕 Now I get to spoil yours while you are out of town. I provide exceptional care whether they are old, young, big or small, I will love you furry family member like my own. I work from home but am also the primary caretaker for my parents. So I will be in and out a few times a day for an hour or two at a time. But my schedule is super flexible and with notice, I can accommodate any schedule or special needs. I will maintain your dogs schedule as prescribed allowing for nerves and adapting to a new caretaker as we get to know one another. This will always include lots of cuddles and belly rubs as they allow, along with leashed walks if they are able.
“I can't recommend booking Brenda enough! I felt completely comfortable leaving my boys (🐶🐶) in Brenda’s care. She is kind, communicative, and clearly loves animals. My boys were not only looked after, but treated with genuine love and attention. Brenda sent me regular updates and photos that gave me a complete peace of mind while I was away, and I could tell my boys were happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. I couldn't have asked for a better experience, and I'll definitely be booking with her again because my boys love her. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and truly passionate about animals, Brenda is the pet sitter to choose. Thanks Brenda for loving my boys!”
“Amber was extremely caring and flexible even after a mistake on our end with our address being labeled incorrectly. She astounded us by being over and above in her care for Bill. We felt very grateful that she was able to care for him over the holiday weekend.”
About: Hi! I’m Destiny – a lifelong animal lover and certified veterinary assistant. Growing up, I always had a soft spot for animals and knew from the time I was in kindergarten that I wanted to work with them. In high school, I spent all four years in a veterinary program and became a Certified Veterinary Assistant in May 2022. Since then, I’ve gained hands-on experience through multiple internships, working with dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. One of my most memorable moments was during my time at South Park Animal Hospital, where I helped care for an injured dog who had been hit by a car—and ended up adopting him myself! Today, I work full time at Banfield Pet Hospital where I have been since February 2024. I also care for local stray cats, making sure they’re fed and healthy. With my background in veterinary care, you can trust that your pets will be in safe, knowledgeable, and loving hands with me. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members and give them the same care and attention I give my own! I’m currently working a full time job but am usually off after 6:30pm ! I am typically available before/after work or during my lunch break depending on where you are located. I have a fenced home with one dog and 9 chickens. I love going outside to play with my dog but I also don't mind playing inside either !
About: I treat every dog like family, not just a booking. I’m experienced with puppies (basic training, crate routines, potty schedules) and senior dogs who need patience, meds, or slower pacing. I’m attentive, communicative with updates, and tuned in to each dog’s unique needs, energy, and comfort. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I work from home. I’m home most of the day, so pets get consistent attention, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of companionship. I can easily adjust my schedule to meet each dog’s needs, whether that’s sticking to a strict routine for puppies or providing a calm, steady environment for senior dogs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions closely: feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific preferences, so your pet feels comfortable in their own space. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection, while also respecting your home and keeping everything clean and secure. I’m very communicative and provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
About: I’ve always had a dog, they are may fav!! My most important title is dog mom!! Caring for dogs is part of my usual daily routine Available prior to work (6-8am), after work (4-10) and on the weekends. I do work during the day but am flexible!! :) I can stop in and hang out, go for walks, etc. Love to go for walks, cuddle, and vibe at home with the dogs! I have dogs of my own but look forward to caring for others dogs as well.
About: For as long as I can remember, animals have been my whole world. I grew up with dogs and have been caring for pets ever since I adopted my two current chiweenies almost 10 years ago. I have cared for multiple dogs throughout their puppy stage and senior years, with my two dogs being seniors themselves. I have experience looking after both dogs and cats on multiple occasions for family and friends who were either travelling or just needed a little bit of help taking care of their animals. I take pride in being able to give the best care I can for all animals entrusted into my care. I believe that all pets deserve the highest quality care and I would be happy to offer exactly that to all your furry friends. Fueled by my love of animals, I am currently preparing to go to school in the fall to study Wildlife Biology and am looking for a side job to fill my time while also caring for pets. I currently have two dogs that I am the sole caretaker of and I'd be happy to care for any other beloved pets. I believe that all pets deserve the highest quality of care and affection but also realize that every pet has different needs and requirements. I value the owner's notes and guidance on how to best care for their pets whether that be instructions for feeding, giving medication, or managing pet's quirks. I understand that it can be uncomfortable and scary for both the animal and owner to entrust a stranger to care for their pet and I strive to make sure that everyone is comfortable and happy.
“This was our first time using Rover. Victoria had already had a visit to meet our 3 fur babies and they liked her immediately. She did a drop in visit and I was pleased to get a report that even our outside dog who is typically leary of strangers, greeted her with a wagging tail! Victoria is kind and has a way with animals so don’t hesitate to call on her for your pet needs.”
“Neha was responsive, went above and beyond, and even discovered when our kitties got locked in one of the rooms. Her attention to detail and care for our cats was wonderful and she is hands down the best cat sitter we’ve had.”
“Sarah was amazing! We have a senior pug that is 18 yrs. old and required medication 2Xs daily and gentle assistance to get out to potty. Deaf and blind (but full of love and positive energy) we were worried about leaving Frank while we went out of town, but Sarah was very attentive and and more importantly gave him lots of love and reassurance while we were away. Thank you Sarah!!!!!”
“Erika was so sweet, attentive and responsible. She volunteered to stay longer than I hired her for when the app was a bit glitchy. She communicated with me and she sent several pictures. I recommend this hard-working college student!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Buda
Ariel always goes above and beyond! Very communicative, my girls have an awesome time with her, we also always get amazing update pics😂 highly recommend! Our experience with Ariel actually led some close friends to try Rover in their city, because they were so touched by our stories of Ariel. She plays with our girls the whole time, has been amazing with giving meds, and was so so thoughtful when one of our babies passed away. Cannot express enough the quality and attention to detail and just love Ariel expresses! 🩷
Angelica was an absolute angel for us! Went so very much above and beyond for what was asked of her! Went will 100% be using her in the future if she has the availability when we need it! Highly HIGHLY recommend her if those fur babies need extra love and a temporary mama while the parent(s) are gone!
I 100% recommend Ivana for your pet needs!! We are a complicated household of special needs pets and some sibling rivalry that requires us following certain protocols to avoid any issues. Ivana made time to get to know our pets prior to pet sitting for us and walked through our typical routine. When doing her drop-in stop, she did a great job of following all rules and maintaining us updated throughout the way. She was also very punctual - which is crucial for us, given that our pets need medication at specific times.
JR was fantastic with Honey! He was very caring, attentive, and clearly treated her like his own. He sent plenty of photos and updates, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I really appreciated how reliable and communicative he was throughout the visit. I can’t say enough about how much I appreciated his help, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again. Highly recommend! 🐾😊
Whit is AMAZING!! He truly went above and beyond for my 2 pups. They require a little extra care when it comes to feeding schedules and even for accommodating my ever changing work schedule, neither of which have been an issue which has been such a blessing. Excellent communication and care for them. My bigger dog is most often hesitant of males but upon meeting him without a prior meet or greet, he loved him and warmed up right away! I couldn’t feel more at ease knowing they’re in his care. Thank you whit!
Emma was incredibly kind and attentive, going out of her way to make my puppy feel comfortable. She approached my puppy with such warmth and patience that he immediately trusted her. From the very first interaction, she handled him gently, making sure he felt safe and cared for. Within no time, they developed a wonderful bond—my puppy wagged his tail excitedly whenever she was around, and it was clear they had become fast friends. Her helpfulness and genuine affection truly stood out, leaving a lasting impression.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Buda stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Buda choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Buda with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
