“Brittiney was great! She did everything we asked and sent us great photos of our dogs enjoying their time with her. We will definitely use her again in the future! Highly recommend.”

About: I absolutely love pets, all of them! Throughout my life, I’ve cared for many different types of animals and have plenty of experience handling and nurturing them. I currently share my home with three friendly pups and one cat, all of whom get along well with other dogs (but can easily be kept separate if needed). I’m happy to help with everything your pet's need: feeding, playtime, potty breaks, walks, and even baths if you’d like. I also love caring for smaller pets like hamsters, guinea pigs, birds, and fish!bYour pets will never be left without care or company for long. You’ll receive daily updates and photos, so you always know how your best friend is doing. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family! 🐶🐱💛 I provide a calm, loving, and reliable environment for every dog in my care. Since I work from home full time, your dog will rarely be left alone and will receive plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I understand how important routine, comfort, and safety are for pets, and I make sure each dog feels at home while staying with me. Whether your dog loves cuddles, walks, or simply relaxing nearby, I’m able to give them the care and interaction they deserve. I have a big fenced-in backyard and a fenced-in front yard, so there’s plenty of safe space for pups to play and explore. For any sneaky escape artists, no worries! I also have a secure dog run that’s only used for short potty breaks. The rest of the time, all pups stay inside the house with us where it’s cozy and comfortable. If your dog needs to be kenneled while no one’s home, just let me know, I have a large kennel to keep them safe and comfy. I take cleanliness and comfort seriously to ensure every pet has a safe and enjoyable stay. Before going home, all dog belongings brought during their stay, including beds, bowls, blankets, toys, and crates, will be thoroughly cleaned and sanitized. For an additional $25 per pet, I also offer a bath and light grooming service, provided your pet is comfortable with/permits the grooming process. My goal is to send every dog home feeling happy, clean, and well cared for.
“This was our second time booking with Catherine. She is amazing with our dogs. I know they are full of energy and can be a handful but they loved having her around. Catherine was punctual, attentive, and followed any extra instructions we had. Would definitely recommend her and plan to book with her anytime we need drop ins!”

“Bassilia is an excellent dog sitter. She's punctual, communicates exceptionally well, and most importantly, takes great care of Tina. My vacation was fabulous knowing that she was looking after her. I would definitely book her again.”

“Alissa S. knocked it out of the park again taking care of our pug babies! She is so kind and the girls just love her! We feel so much better going on vacation knowing they are in her capable hands!”

“She was amazing and she did great with my cat Moo. She was very responsive and is very reliable. Moo mainly keeps to herself but wherever the opportunity presented itself Kira was there to keep her company. I love that she sent me pictures every drop in which really calmed my nerves and I would for sure book with her again.”

“Monique was a fantastic dog sitter. She was punctual, compassionate, flexible, communicative and easy to work with. We will be booking with her regular and she carries my highest recommendation.”

About: Many of my family and friends always go to me as their first choice as a pet sitter since I was 14, I am now 20. I do part time! I can do something quick and easy for anyone that needs their dogs to be watched for a day or couple of hours. Open to giving walks and coming by to give them any necessities such as food and water. Can do weekends as well Whenever I have taken care of pets I keep a close eye on them and try to make them feel comfortable. I have a lot of experience with pets that tend to be very anxious and I would take them out for a walk or play with them to ease the stress and give them a treat! I have taken care of up to four dogs at once so I can handle any pressure.
“Jazmine did an amazing job with checking in with me. She spent time with my kitten who warmed up to her quickly. We know animals have a good sense of who’s a beautiful soul. She went above and beyond by sending me pictures of my baby. I didn’t have to worry once while being away. Thank you Jazmin!”

“Erin comes to our house to catch our new cat because we cannot. He a 2 year old stray we brought into our house. Erin came 6 days straight to catch him so we could administer prescription ear drops. She can catch him within minutes of arriving at our house. She knowledgeable, kind and instructive. An immense help.”

“Caring and very reliable. Our animals love her and look forward to her visits. We really appreciate her updates because she really seems to get to know our pets the way we know them. She spends quality time playing with them and sends awesome pictures.”

About: I am a dependable and caring pet sitter with over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and cats. Throughout the years, I have provided pet sitting services for friends, family members, and neighbors, caring for pets of various ages, sizes, and personalities. As a lifelong pet owner, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your furry family members. I have personally cared for my own dog since she was just 6 weeks old, and she is now 13 years old. This experience has given me valuable insight into caring for pets through every stage of life, from energetic puppies to senior companions. As a current dental student, I am responsible, organized, and committed to providing excellent care. My services can include walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, litter box cleaning, and ensuring your pet feels safe and comfortable while you're away. My availability is Monday through Friday after 5:00 PM until 8:00 PM, as I attend dental school during the day. I am also available on weekends from 7:00 AM to 8:00 PM. Whether your pet needs an evening walk, a drop-in visit, or weekend care, I will treat them with the same love and attention I give my own pets. I look forward to helping local pet parents feel confident knowing their pets are in caring, reliable hands. I'm currently a dental student at Texas Tech so I am available on weekdays after 5 pm. The weekends I am open to many different times as I am mostly free. I will care for your fur babies as closely as you care for them. I will follow any instructions you provide and uphold any of your requests.
“Keilani is fantastic, as per usual! I feel so eat ease when she is caring for my animals. She is very communicative, caring, detail oriented, and compassionate. I feel very lucky to have found her, and I know my animals do as well!!”

“Brooklyn was fantastic! She communicated clearly and consistently, and took such great care of my dog. I really appreciated the updates, and it was obvious my dog was happy and comfortable with her. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”

About: I have had several years of experience dog/ house sitting for family and this past year I have extended that to outside of family! I have two big dogs and a cat of my own. I would love to possibly be a sitter for your pets! Right now I am a full time college student so being able to pet/ house sit would allow me some independence outside of my home and time away. I would be able to stay at the house the entire time with exceptions of classes. With pet/ house sitting I treat everything as if it was my own. I would never intentionally do anything to harm your pet or your house.

About: I grew up around dogs my whole life and currently own two beautiful Dachshunds - Penny and Coco, who are full of energy and curiosity! I’m constantly around animals volunteering at the Humane Society of El Paso critter sitting, walking, and helping groom dogs and cats alike! I am comfortable around all dogs and willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animals. I would love to be able to take them to the dog park where they can interact with other animals while you’re away! I’m currently working part-time and am available for drop ins or house sittings when needed. I am also flexible and can accept bookings within a day! When with your fur babies, I would love to take them to parks, hiking, walks, and anything you already do with them to make them feel most comfortable! I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I have availability for walks most mornings and boarding on Saturdays I have a fenced yard and two friendly dachshunds to keep your fur babies company! I can easily crate your dog if needed for their comfort as well.
About: I can continue basic obedience with your pup while you’re away! I have two very sweet, energetic dogs that would love to help you with socialization. We know the stress of leaving your dog with strangers, but I promise it quickly won’t feel that way. Take ease knowing I’ve been in your shoes and understand that frequent photo’s and videos help ease that. Can do anything from puppies to older dogs. We work most M-F. But are home bodies so would love to check in on or board your dog(s) over the weekends! If you needed us Friday or Monday as well, we come home every day for lunch. So the longest my pups go is 4 hours without a potty break. We can adjust if your dog is younger and on a shorter schedule of course. I have a fenced yard with pea gravel and turf. We also have a very big, not very trafficked park (not a dog park- I avoid those) a 1 minute walk away. We go there almost every day with our dogs for exercise after the work day. We crate our dogs at night as their crates are their happy place. We can adjust based on your current dogs routine. I do clicker trainer with my dogs, but can adjust to whatever format you have currently if you have a younger dog you’re working with. Communication is key!
Castner Heights pet parents share their Rover experiences
Catherine did everything I asked of her. I didn’t get a chance to show her how to do everything in person, but she followed my written directions correctly and took good care of my babies. I always received a summary of each visit right after. I appreciate her being available on short notice, too.

I had a really great experience with my sitter taking care of Milo. He can be very picky with people, so I was a little nervous at first, but he warmed up quickly which says a lot. Milo got plenty of playtime, attention, and care. His routine was followed, he was fed well, and of course he got his treats which he loved. It never felt like just checking a box, there was real time and effort put into making sure he was comfortable and engaged. Communication was great the whole time. I always got quick responses and updates, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Milo means everything to me, so trust is a big deal, and I felt completely comfortable. Overall, an amazing job. I would definitely book again and recommend to anyone, especially if you have a cat that takes time to warm up.

Maria did an outstanding job caring for Hobbes and Orion, our two cats. From the start, it was clear she was not only knowledgeable but genuinely passionate about animals, following all instructions meticulously to ensure they were cared for, and entertained during her visit. Hobbes, who tends to be a bit reserved, warmed up to her quickly thanks to her calm and patient approach, while sweet Orion enjoyed all the pets she provided for him =] On top of her excellent care, Maria communicated wonderfully throughout the entire stay, sending regular updates and photos that gave us real peace of mind. We were truly impressed by her attention to detail and the love she showed for our pets-Highly recommend her as a sitter!

Absolutely wonderful experience! She was right on time, showed genuine care and love for my dogs, and even went the extra mile to make sure they were comfortable and happy. I truly appreciated her flexibility and willingness to check in on them last minute—it gave me such peace of mind. Will definitely be reaching out to her again. Highly recommend!
