“What a lucky last second shot in the dark! I needed someone to go over to the house same day, and check on our cat. I reached out to many profiles in one shot, and luckily for us, Kim was first to respond; immediately after my request. She is highly competent and reliable. I was able to send all the instructions/info once, and she got it. Where with anyone new, I was of course expecting I’d need to be available for any possible issues with locating our home, getting inside, any questions one would have, or urgent need to reach me. And I desperately needed to drop my phone and go to sleep from where I got stuck 2000 miles away. Info sent, I passed out, later woke up and saw she had no issues or questions, as she understood everything I wrote her, and has excellent self management skill. She even showed up on time (early morning right after posting out) even though I said any time that day was okay- that the posted time was only set because we have to of course post an exact time. She also stayed for the full time I’d posted, to give Twiggy some lap time, when I said she didn’t need to stay longer than it took to do the quick feeding drill etc, as she was helping us so last second. Definitely a lucky catch!”
“Highly recommended! She followed all my detailed instructions perfectly and was incredibly proactive, immediately informing me if anything went wrong. I would absolutely book her again.”
“Isabel is an AMAZING sitter. My cat messed up her litter box and ruined all the litter, leaving a mess everywhere. Isabel cleaned all of it up and went out to buy more litter. So thankful for her help and all her hard work!”
“Took excellent care of our 2 cats while on our first vacation together. Took lots of pictures which was great and played with them. Was very responsive and thoughtful. 10/10 will try to book again for next vacation.”
“Lillian was awesome! she sent tons of photos, was super quick to respond, and was super cool about me needing to change my booking halfway through my trip! 10/10 recommend!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter. One of my cats requires intensive care and medication three times a day, and she handled everything with professionalism, patience, and genuine kindness. She checked in frequently with photos and updates, which gave me total peace of mind.”
“Jo did a great job with my very demanding wobbly cat. She frequently has accidents peeing over the side of the litter box while attempting to hold herself steady. She will not use the litter box at all unless it has just been scooped. I have trouble myself getting rid of the smells from these accidents, but I came home to a very clean litter box and no accident stains or smells. She was also immediately friendly and not skiddish like she has been when left in the past.”
About: I have previously worked as a shift leader at Pet Suites of McKinney, a boarding and daycare, for 2 years. I have skills including administering medication, walking dogs, cleaning up after animals, bathing, and grooming. I am currently a Veterinary Technician at Total Care Animal Hospital in Prosper! I work as a veterinary technician at an animal hospital. I have all the time in the world really! I just want to be able to help! I have watched more than cats and dogs, like chickens, plants, houses, and reptiles of all kinds. I also know how to safely administer medications pets might have as well.
About: I have watched animals since I was younger whether it was my own pets or someone else’s. I have watched many of my family and friends animals and they have recommended me to their friends. I currently am a student-athlete at the University of North Texas, but I still have free time to be able to care and play with your animals! I am usually more available in the evenings and most weekends all day. I’m very attentive to their routines. I am able to take your pet outside to use the bathroom. I am able to crate your pet if needed. I’m also happy to follow specific feeding, medication, or bedtime routines so your pet can stay as comfortable as possible. I have a cat at my apartment that is able to keep them company.
About: With my own animals I’ve had a special needs dog that required medication. I’ve had my own senior animals that required medication. I can do pets like rabbits, rats, birds, ect. (No snakes) I recently graduated high school and getting into the work field so I’ll have all the time to be able to take care of your baby. I will always make sure they are okay and comfortable with anything. I’ll make sure collars and leashes are on properly so they don’t get hurt.
About: I have had animals in the house for ages! I have taken care of my families animals and given some of the best gifts to my furry friends! I clean up after my pets every morning and night making sure they have a reasonable home to stay in! Both of my cats get wet food every night and eat dinner with us! I have a fenced yard that is quite large. I do have a toddler who is super good with animals and loves to have them around the house!
About: I have been surrounded by pets my entire life, and I genuinely can’t imagine a home without them! Growing up with all types of animals (dogs, cats, lizards, hamsters, etc.) has taught me how to care for animals of all personalities, sizes, and ages. I adopted my first dog on my own 4 years ago, and she has taught me so much about patience, training, and the special bond you build with your pets. I now have two dogs and a cat of my own, so I know firsthand how much our pets mean to us and how important it is to find someone you can trust with them. I believe every pet deserves to be loved and cared for to the fullest extent, and I’ll be sure to treat your pets the same way! I’m a full-time student, so my schedule is pretty flexible! I’m able to fit pet care into my routine around my classes and can usually stop by whenever I’m not in class. This gives me plenty of flexibility to work with your schedule and make sure your pets get the attention and care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first with me! During walks and drop-in visits, I make sure your furry friend feels happy, safe, and loved. I carefully follow your instructions, keep a close eye on them during our time together, and always double check that doors and gates are secure. My goal is to make every visit feel just like time with a trusted friend!
About: I genuinely love caring for animals, and I think that really shows in how I treat every pet I watch. I love getting to know their personalities and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work as a veterinary assistant, so I have hands-on experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and needs. I’m comfortable giving medications, keeping an eye on health, and handling more complex situations. I also have experience assisting with anesthesia and medical care, so I’m especially confident with senior pets, puppies, or pets that need a little extra attention! I’m pretty active and love being outside, so I’m always happy to keep up with energetic dogs, but I’m just as happy hanging out with pets who prefer a clamer relaxed day. My favorite part of this work is ending the day knowing I helped take care of animals and got to spend my time around them, it’s something I genuinely love. At the end of the day, I treat every pet like they’re my own: with a lot of care, patience, and love! I currently work full time as a veterinary assistant with my typical days off being Sunday, Wednesday, Saturday PM, and occasionally Thursday. However if you are located in the Flower Mound / Lewisville area I am able to visit your fur babies on my lunch break! I am flexible and open to working out a schedule that best fits their needs! I currently have one cat, but have grown up with dogs (my soft spot is for Boxers). My childhood allowed me to gain some animal care experience however my job as truly allowed me to grow and become very confident in animal care! I like to follow as closely as possible to their normal daily routine to keep them as calm and comfortable as I can and to reduce stress levels.
About: I have over 5 years of experience and I have found that I absolutely love working with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities! My hands-on experience ranges from tiny, spunky Miniature Pinschers all the way up to high-energy Belgian Malinois. I know every dog is unique, so I tailor my care to match your pup's exact energy and daily routine! Specialized Care I have specific experience with puppies, senior, and high energy pups if you need any form of specialized care! -Puppies: Practicing basic training, enforcing commands, and keeping routines consistent. -Seniors: Gentle, attentive care, mobility support, and oral medication administration. -High Energy Breeds: Structured exercise, play, and mental enrichment to keep working breeds happy (and tired haha). I’d love to chat about your pups specific routine and answer any questions you may have! Pet care fits easily into my routine because I work less than 5 hours a day Monday through Wednesday, which allows me to be home with pets or check on them frequently throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, and I am available all days of the week for pet sitting, drop-in visits, walks, and overnight stays. I enjoy spending time with animals and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and care while their owners are away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a large fenced yard where dogs can safely run, play, and get plenty of exercise. I am experienced with crate-trained dogs and can use crates when needed. I also have experience administering medications and following special care instructions. I have friendly, well-socialized dogs that enjoy playing with others, but I can easily keep pets separated if an owner prefers. I treat every pet like my own and work hard to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while in my care.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Carter
Libby the Cat takes time to warm up to people, but Kim won her over with patience and persistence. She found a way to give Libby her medicine and get her to like it. Her photos of Libby show the relationship warming visit by visit. I will definitely ask Kim to take care of Libby the next time I go out of town.
Emma is clearly developing positive relationships with the multitude of pets I have under her care. I appreciate her detailed communication and the many photos of both the animals and other things of interest that are occurring at our place while we are away. Highly recommend.
Sophia was absolutely amazing with Smoke and Salem! 🐾❤️ She took such great care of them while I was away and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind. Smoke definitely loved the extra attention, and even Salem—who can be a little standoffish—was well taken care of. You can really tell Sophie genuinely loves animals and puts in the effort to make them feel comfortable. I came home to happy, well-cared-for babies! 🥹🐱 I would definitely book Sophia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and beyond
Jessica did a wonderful job during our second booking with her. Her communication was excellent, and she paid great attention to detail throughout our trip. We truly appreciated knowing that our cats were safe, comfortable, and well cared for while we were on vacation. It gave us peace of mind to be away knowing they were in such good hands. We would gladly book with Jessica again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.
April, thank you so much for taking such amazing care of Toby and Miss Kitty. I very much appreciate everything that you did with them during your visits. They definitely were not stressed out when I got home and that is the biggest compliment I can give. I will definitely reach out to you for my next trip. Thank you so much again.
We absolutely loved Phoebe and will be booking again in the future! Phoebe was communicative, sweet, and clearly takes her role as pet sitter seriously with the attention given to our 2 cats. She followed all directions given and went above and beyond with things we didn't even know to ask for, like cleaning the water fountain and food bowls regularly. Knowing my cats were well-cared for put me at ease. 10/10 would recommend and will be telling all my friends and family about Phoebe 🙂
Shiru has watched my cat (who is very shy, and a little spicy) several times now and has been excellent every time! This past time, a leak appeared in my home and maintenance had to drop by unexpectedly while I was out of town. Shiru was so helpful in coming over to make sure my cat was safe and separated from the maintenance crew who were cutting open my walls. Thank you Shiru!!
I really appreciate Catherine's calm, friendly demeanor with me and my cat, she calmed us both down! She did a great job with our elderly cat Taylor and we will absolutely ask her back in the future. If you're looking for a kind yet capable cat sitter, I highly recommend Catherine!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We cannot say enough great things about Mikayla! We have four cats, each with very different personalities, and she took the time to understand and care for each one individually so they all received the love and attention they needed. Mikayla was always timely, reliable, and completely trustworthy. She provided excellent updates during every visit and regularly sent multiple photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She went above and beyond by frequently changing the litter boxes and even taking the waste out to our dumpster — something we truly appreciated. It was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals, and our cats were comfortable and well cared for under her watch. We are incredibly grateful to have found Mikayla and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and attentive pet sitter.

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.

Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
