About: I’ve grown up with and taken care of animals all my life. I have a 9 year old cat and 15 month old dog. They are my pride and joy. I also have experience with elderly dogs and cats. I am currently in between jobs and have plenty of time on my hands. I am available to pet sit all week and most weekends. I live in an apartment complex with a dog park. I also have a 15 month old pup who I take for walks at least 3 times a day. He’s great with other dogs both small and large and he lives with a cat. He’ll keep your pets company.
“Christian is incredible with our puppy. She’s very knowledgeable and caring, always leaving detailed notes. She knows when to modify the usual walking routine if our puppy needs it. I can’t recommend her enough!”

About: I spent 10 amazing years with my dog Olive, including providing dedicated care for her as a senior with special needs. Working remotely means I can give your pet plenty of time and attention, whether they are energetic and playful or calm and cuddly. I love ‘em all! I work remotely and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to easily adapt my day around your pet’s needs. Whether they require frequent walks, playtime, or medication, that's no problem! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow any specific instructions you provide and keep a close eye on their well-being at all times.
About: I had an older dog for four years that I love to take care of. I am flexible with the activity levels of your pets. I work remotely. My job is flexible, so I work from my home or somewhere else. I also am flexible on weekends for pet care. My complex is in a safe area and has an accessible walking trail. I have reliable transportation to get me to and from client’s home.
About: I have 3 dogs at home! Two are huskies that require a lot of energy while the sheltie doesn’t require as much walking but more attention! I want to get back into my routine of having animals since leaving for college I’ve been very bored! From owning and taking care of animals from dogs all the way to horses, I love animals so much and enjoy taking care of them! From a very young age, I’ve been taking care of friends and neighbors pets as long as I can remember. As a freshman in college, I have a lot of free time on my plate! I love to fill it with exercise but also want a job as well. I prioritize pets due to the fact that I can give a 100 percent since I have a lot of free time. I prioritize activity and one on one care with my animals and clients homes! I was a multi sport athlete in high school and I like to continue getting a lot of physical exercise so taking my dogs on long walks and making them feel loved is my top priority!

About: In high school I briefly volunteered at Keller HSNT and then pivoted to volunteering at a no-kill, nonprofit animal shelter called Operation Kindness where I was trained to properly look after both dogs and cats! I volunteered there for several years and I was able to walk the dogs there too, learning how to provide them a calm walk and to deescalate their stress in response to their environment. Additionally, I have my own two sweet dogs back home and I always take them on long walks and adore caring for them. Since they’re my family’s dogs, I don’t consider caring for them as professional pet care experience, but I do want to mention that my love for Buster and Mojo has taught me a lot of the basics! Although I’ve taken both of them on walks together before, I would prefer to walk one dog at a time when it comes to other people’s dogs, given that I am less familiar with their temperaments and I want to ensure that everything goes smoothly! Other than that, I absolutely loveeee animals and I enjoy spending time with them! I’ve looked after several of my friends’ dogs before and have been paid to walk some of my neighborhood dogs in high school, as well as dog and cat-sit for them! As a sophomore at UT, classes and student org events are what primarily make up my schedule. I’m usually pretty free on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, because I have classes until 10am those days. On Tuesdays and Thursdays however, my time is more limited because I’m generally unavailable until late afternoon on those days. Caring for a pet at a client’s home includes being incredibly knowledgeable of my client’s boundaries regarding their home, as well as communicating important parts of their pet’s routine. Safety is incredibly essential, and I know that my time and attention towards their pet is crucial: I have never allowed myself to pay more attention to my phone or other things when what I should be paying the greatest level of attention to is the client’s pet.

About: Hi, I’m Sydney! I grew up with animals, starting with our beloved cat Kitzel and then two crazy miniature schnauzers named Gabby and Schultz. My family also fostered dogs regularly when I was a kid, and in high school I volunteered at a humane society walking dogs and working with the kittens every day. More recently I’ve been volunteering at Austin Pets Alive! (APA), where I’m trained to walk dogs and volunteer with the cats as a kitty cupid, matching them with adopters. My own dog, Raven, is a rescue. I trained her myself on loose leash walking, advanced obedience, and beginner’s agility. she even qualified for her Canine Good Citizen in our training class. I’ve also watched my parents’ dog, Heidi, for 6+ months and done week-long stays for friends with 7+ different dogs, ranging from a Cavapoo puppy to a senior Bernese Mountain Dog, so I’m used to adjusting to different personalities and routines. I do dog walking as well as house sitting and drop-ins for both dogs and cats. I’ll stick to your pet’s routine, keep up with any training you’re working on, and send you photos so you know how they’re doing :) I’m home most days with a flexible schedule, so I can do midday walks, multiple drop-ins a day, and last-minute requests. I am available weekends and holidays as well. I am not rushing between other jobs, so your pet gets my full attention! All of my care happens in your home, so your pets get to stay in their own space with their normal routine. I don’t bring my own dog along, so it’s just me and your pets. Before the first booking, I’ll go over everything with you at a meet and greet: feeding, meds, walk routines, quirks, favorite toys, and anything they’re nervous about. Then I stick to it as closely as possible. For walks, I always double-check harnesses and collars before heading out and keep dogs leashed the whole time. For drop-ins, I take care of food, fresh water, litter or potty breaks, meds if needed, and spend the rest of the visit playing, cuddling, or just hanging out, depending on what your pet likes. For house sitting, I’ll keep your pet company overnight and provide daytime care every 4-6 hours for potty breaks, meals, playtime and cuddles. I will also help bring in mail, water plants, take out trash, and keep the house tidy. I always make sure doors and gates are closed and locked before I leave, and I’ll send photos and updates every visit so you never have to wonder how they’re doing :)
About: I’ve been around and caring for animals most of my life! I’m happy to help with dog walks, drop-ins, or pet sitting in my home. I have a super friendly dog who loves everyone, especially dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens. He truly has never met a stranger! I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I work from home most of the week, so I’m around and available for your pets! I go into the office once a week on Tuesdays, but otherwise I have a pretty flexible schedule. I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. In my home, pets can free roam and make themselves comfortable in my apartment. I’m able to take them out for regular potty breaks, walks, and playtime, and my apartment also has an on-site dog park for some extra exercise! I also have a crate and a cozy bed available. If your pet is crate-trained, I’m happy to crate them while I’m away or at night if that’s part of their normal routine. I’m always happy to follow your pet’s usual schedule and care instructions to help them feel safe and at home.
About: I have taken care of pets since I was about 5 years old. I have potty trained, pet sit for my friends, and taken care of plentiful animals over time. I have a dog of my own that I just recently got, and we have always had dogs in the family. I know how to manage the responsibility of a dog while giving them a loving home! I am a college student taking remote classes currently and spend all my free time with my pup! I would easily be able to add another one to mine! We go on 4-5 walks a day and make sure to get plenty of grass time! I care for pets by tending to their needs and making sure their health is taken care of most importantly. Then of course, I play and give them the admiration they deserve!
“Julia is the first Rover I’ve used for my dog and I couldn’t be more pleased. She was warm,friendly, communicative and did a great job. She sent daily photos and updates. Will definitely use again and highly recommend.”
About: Please do me the favor of allowing me to take care of your fur babies! Although I do not have any pets of my own, I am a great Auntie to all my friends pets. I adore all animals of all kinds and sizes. I have the most experience with dogs and cats of all ages, including taking care of some with anxiety and needing training! I’ve been pet sitting since I was 11, including a snake and a hamster! I have also had some experience with fostering puppies. A little about me: I am a young adult in Austin and I work at a local bookstore helping with school events. I love animals but have not been able to have one of my own because of living and financial situations. Please let me know how I can help serve you and your pet! I am currently working full-time from home! I work from 9-5, so I can take care of your pet before work, after work, overnight, and occasionally during the work day if needed! I have a lot of free time outside of work and would love to fit your needs into my day-to-day schedule. I will take the utmost care of your pet, ensuring safety and peace over all else. I prioritize the well-being of your pet, as well as companionship. I am adaptable to any and all circumstances- if your pet needs medicine, training, or just someone to cuddle with!
About: I have taken care of both dogs and cats since I was 13 for all my neighbors. I have done home stays as well as walks and check ins. Not to mention, my family has always had a dog, cat or both! I love animals and can’t wait to help you take care of yours! I am home from college for the winter and am not currently working any other jobs, so I am very flexible and willing to work with you and your pet’s schedule! I love to play with all sorts of animals. I will make sure to keep your pet entertained and give it plenty of exercise. I am easily adaptable depending on your pets needs wether that be eating habits, crating, or any other need.

About: Hi I’m Michayla! I’m 28 and live in central Austin. I have spent much of my time in my childhood, teen years and adulthood, looking after various types of dogs. Growing up I had a Chihuahua mix, a large lab, a great Dane and French bulldog. I have a lot of experience with keeping a timely schedule for walks, feeding times and medication intake. I currently do not have any pets so I have a lot of availability to accommodate your pets needs. I only work part time in the evenings (4pm-11pm). I work exclusively in the evening at a restaurant that only does dinner service, so I have plenty of time to take your little one on long walks if need. I live in a neighborhood lots of outdoor spaces and pet friendly shops! I have a pet friendly apartment. I am also very time oriented so your little one will always be fed or given medication at the exact time they need to be.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Central East Austin
Daylan was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of Bronson while I was away and gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. She was kind, reliable, and genuinely caring. I’m so grateful for her help and would happily book with her again. Highly recommend! ❤️

Anna was wonderful with Birdie! We booked her last minute for a weekend festival, and she was so accommodating—even coming over the same day to meet Birdie beforehand. She took Birdie on nice, long walks, and even helped out with dinner one night. We felt so much better knowing Birdie was getting plenty of love, attention, and exercise while we were away. Anna was reliable, thoughtful, and clearly cared about making sure Birdie was happy and well taken care of. We would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog walker!

Meg was amazing with Lulu. Lulu is a very timid and anxious dog who takes days to warm up to people, but not with Meg. It took Lulu a whole 5 minutes to run up to Meg wagging her tail and asking for pets. As an owner, this was lovely to see. It put me at so much ease while I was gone knowing that Lulu trusted Meg from the start. Meg was so gentle and patient with Lulu and gave her the best care. I got constant updates and pictures, and Lulu looked happy in every one of them. I will be using Meg again and would recommend her to anyone who asks!!

Olivia was amazing! I’m a rover sitter myself so I’m sometimes service on who to book, Olivia was so sweet and loving to my pup. She took her on a nice long walk while I was doing some work stuff and tired her out. She was completely wiped most of the day and seemed so happy when I was back. Even hung out with her for a little while who cooled down. Definitely using her again!

This was my first time using Rover, and Catira made it a great experience! She was super communicative, arrived on time, and sent me a picture of Winnie on her walk. I never had to worry about her having trouble getting into the house or anything else. Winnie was also relaxed when I got home, which isn't always the case after I’ve been gone most of the day. I’d definitely recommend Catira!
