“Yesenia was wonderful! She looked after my dog while I was away on vacation. Dropped in frequently, sent lots of photos and updates, and was very responsive. Would highly recommend to anyone going away or who needs someone to let their dog out while they’re at work.”
About: I have raised animals of all sorts all my life. I’m a dog lover and I’d love to help with your furry friend or friends! I’m available weekends and after work, I am looking for extra cash. I am available holidays as well. My schedule is pretty flexible most days I have two of my own dogs and we are patiently waiting on our new home. I can walk your dog or come play fetch or really anything you need.
About: Hi! I’m Jerrica, a Certified Veterinary Technician (CVT) with 10 years of experience in the veterinary medical field and a lifelong love for animals. 🐾 My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away by caring for your pets like they’re part of my own family. With my veterinary background, I’m comfortable recognizing when something seems “off,” caring for pets with a variety of needs, and making sure every pet in my care is safe, comfortable, and happy. Pet sitting with me is about more than meals, potty breaks, and a cozy place to sleep! I incorporate mental enrichment, playtime, exercise, affection, and plenty of one-on-one attention based on your pet’s individual personality and routine. Whether they love toys and games, exploring outside, snuggling on the couch, or just having someone nearby, I want their stay to feel like a fun little vacation of their own. 🐶🐱❤️ When your pet stays with me, they’re treated like family—because that’s exactly how I’d want someone to care for mine. Pet care isn’t something I have to squeeze into my schedule—it is my schedule! 🐾 As a full-time pet sitter, my days are centered around the pets in my care, allowing me to provide plenty of attention, supervision, playtime, and enrichment throughout the day. I keep my schedule flexible so I can accommodate each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including meals, potty breaks, walks, medications, play sessions, and plenty of cuddle time. Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours, my goal is to keep them safe, comfortable, active, and feeling like part of the family! 🐾❤️ For pets staying with me, I have a fully fenced backyard for supervised play and potty breaks, and I also offer leash walks for exercise and enrichment. For dogs who enjoy a little adventure and have their owner’s permission, I can provide transportation to local dog parks for some extra exercise and fun. My home also includes my friendly little Corgi, Cheesecake, along with my two school-aged kids, so pets who enjoy children and other dogs have plenty of opportunities for companionship, playtime, and attention. Of course, I tailor each stay to the individual pet—quieter guests are given their own space and downtime, while our social butterflies can join in on the fun! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, medications, playtime, enrichment, and lots of affection. No matter which service you choose, I want your pet to receive the same kind of attentive, loving care I’d want for my own. 🐶🐱
“Veronica was amazing with our mini dachshund! After our meet and greet, she stayed with Jaxie and sent us pictures of them playing and snuggling. She sent frequent updates and left our house spotless. We’ve already booked Veronica again for next week!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve cared for dogs and cats since I was 10 years old, and I truly treat every pet like family. Recently, I bottle-fed orphaned kittens starting when they were only 3 days old, and watching them grow into healthy, playful 3-month-olds has been incredibly rewarding. I also have 13 spoiled cats of my own, so I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else. You can count on me to provide lots of love, attention, and updates while you’re away. I currently am unemployed so I have plenty of free time! I do have 13 cats of my own who need my attention as well but that won’t be a problem. I will attend to and treat your fur baby as I would my own. I love animals and wouldn’t do any harm to them. They are always safe with me. :)
“Thank, CJ for staying at our apartment over the weekend and taking such good care of Clover! We appreciated the daily photos/videos and how you followed his schedule. We also appreciate how the apartment was clean and tidy when we arrived back home. Hopefully you can watch Clover again soon!”
“This was the first time Lindsay stayed over and watched our boys. She was very responsive and sent updates and pictures especially with our older Bo being afraid of the storms. I had piece of mind that he was well taken care of. Lindsay kept our house very clean. We have her booked for several future visits. Thanks you very much for taking care of our Bobo and Oliver!! We appreciate you!!”
“I'm so beyond happy and grateful they responded to my request and understood our needs while traveling. This was my first time using the app. If I'm in the area again I know who to reach out too. Thank you”
About: Im very caring. Ive worked with autistic kids and I have a disabled cat that has wobbly cat syndrome.I have owned dogs in the past as well. I get off work at 4pm so I can stop buy and let the dog out for some rec time, to get some energetic out or if your leaving town I can pet sit at your house. Just as if I was at a guest house with car, and honorably. No visitors and keep things as they were, and give the animals extra love till there parents are back.
“Lily took great care of Yogi!!! My husband and I felt comfortable being out of town knowing Yogi was in good hands. She was also communicative and gave us daily updates and photos, which I love!!”
“Stephanie was AMAZING! She was very proactive in setting up a meet and greet beforehand and asked questions that helped us get to know her. She kept us updated the whole time on how he was and sent photos and pictures to us. She even filmed our pup opening his Christmas gift since we were away for the holiday. Went we came back our house was just as we left it and clean. She even put our recycling and trash at the curb for us. She also left a note and cute little chalkboard for when we got home. We will definitely be using her again!”
About: Your pet(s) will be treated and cared for like family, and the environment is calming, secure, and quiet to assist with comfort and boarding stay. I'm currently part-time; however, I can make adjustments as necessary and can board daily and on weekdays, weekends, and holidays. We can discuss the details of the care for your fur baby at the meet and greet. Have a fenced-in yard at home with a security system. Located around animal treatment/medical facilities. I have a 5-year-old German Shepherd who is calm and well-trained.
About: I make sure I'm always working with the right tools to guarantee your best friend fully enjoys their time with me. My attention to detail involves checking for proper harness and leash/collar position, use of friendly, positive commands, taking their favorite routes, hydrating, feeding, checking on medications, making sure they are comfortable with the proper amount of TLC. I'm weather-conscious and am prepared to walk under difficult conditions. Also, I'm fully bi-lingual for any customers who speak Spanish and would feel more comfortable using it. I specialize in working with nervous dogs that are leash-reactive and also those that need to gain confidence. I work with dogs who have had trouble finding a proper match and they have found their favorite walker in me. My services include treats, love and attention, and even classical music or meditation when called for. I'm always looking forward to making a new best friend.
About: Quality pet care and services provided around the clock! You get what you pay for when you book my services. I provide security and peace of mind! I am available 24/7. I am totally home-based and available for long term and short term as well as short notice. If you need me feel free to call me, I will help if I can! I have a large fenced lot. I have outside dogs not close to the entrance of the house. I have puppies inside with me who are friendly and love to play. I also have 3 children who absolutely adore animals and know how to care for and handle them with love. I provide crates and dishes for boarding.
About: I've always had a way with dogs and all animals, since I was a child. My positive energy and kind spirit brings animals close to me. Through out my entire life I have walked dogs of friends, family and neighbors, just for the fun of it! Dogs bring me joy and spending time with them on walks is my favorite thing to do in my spare time. Seeing their faces light up when they see Miss Laura coming, knowing they are going on an adventure, brightens my day! Fresh air and exercise is the best recipe to a happy pup! Allow me the opportunity to help out with your fury friend when life gets hectic and a long walk cant fit into your daily schedule. Thank you and have a great day! I have an open schedule for the most part and taking walks is part of my daily routine, spending it with an animal would be great! I will be just walking dogs but safety and trust is important, as I will ensure safe places to walk and proper clean up in residential areas and or parks.
About: As a lifelong pet owner and a stay at home Mama with plenty of time, I have a lot of love in my heart for animals, ask anyone in my family (they love to laugh at me for it)! I even trained my own emotional support mini poodle! I am currently a stay at home Mama with school aged children. I have plenty of free time and lots of love to give our furry friends! I live on over 30 acres of private property which means I have plenty of safe room for pets to run and play to their heart's content!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Callahan walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Callahan maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Callahan 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
