My pups loved Lauren! She played with them in the snow and cold, making sure that they used the potty before taking them back in. I would definitely ask Lauren to take care of my puppers again.

Couldn’t be happier with Christine and how she took care of our three fur babies. Each one has a very unique personality and two out of three need to be won over which Christine did quickly. Her checks-ins were both full of information and very thoughtful with lots of pictures showing how well they were behaving while we were away. We will definitely use Christine again.

About: I’ve have always had a dog & cats since I was a child. I love all pet cuddles! And meeting new friends. I have one dog and two cats at the moment. I've dog sat for my friends and coworkers when they need someone to be with their babies for nights away or random drop ins to check on them. I'm looking for a fun way to make extra money and i couldn't think of anything better then spending time with dogs & cats while doing that. I work four days a week but it’s flexible! I’m available everyday after 2pm and if I have a good enough heads up I’m available 24/7 I can give you references of people I have house/pet sat for in the past. I’m comfortable crating your pet if needed. I’m easily available on my cell phone when I am pet sitting. And I can send updates whenever you would like.

About: I’ve owned cats and dogs my entire life. I currently own two standard Goldendoodles and foster cats/kittens for the Hero Rescue. I have been an animal lover since I was a small child. I have patience with pets that need some time adapting to a new person in their area. I work full time so pets that are crate trained would work best for boarding in my home. If you would rather me come for drop ins I can stay and make sure they are fed, have water, get play time, and plenty of love while I’m there. Dogs in my home would have a fenced in yard for supervised potty breaks and play time. I also have enough space to throw a ball/toy for fetch inside for extra exercise. They would have my 2 Goldendoodles for company but any boarders would need to be crate trained so I don’t have to worry about them getting into anything while I’m at work. I also have cameras in my home so I can check in on everyone throughout the day. Drop ins would get attention, love, and play time while I’m at your home with them.

Mason was a phenomenal pet sitter. She was able to fulfill my need for a pet sitter during a holiday weekend, given less than 2 weeks notice. Mason gave prompt reports on my cat and even fed my aquarium fish and watered my indoor plants. She was patient with my feisty indoor cat, responding mindfully to my cat’s communication cues demanding space. I highly recommend Mason! 5/5 stars

About: I'm a dance teacher who loves animals! Doesn't matter the size or amount of floof, I want to meet and care for your furbaby. I treat all pets with the love and respect they deserve. Know that when you leave them in my hands, I will do everything I can to make them feel happy and at ease in your absence. As a pet owner myself, I understand the amount of trust you give over to me and I will strive to exceed your expectations for excellent service. I have owned pets most of my life, unfortunately I can not have any dogs where I live, but I have started walking dogs within the last year so that I can meet as many as I can. I look forward to meeting your sweet pet.

Aleisha is so great! She took the time to meet our dogs ahead of time and get the lay of our house. She manages all 4 of our pups with ease! Our dogs range from puppy to senior, and she takes good care of all their individual needs. She is always on time and so flexible with our changing schedules. She communicates everything and takes the best pics during her visits! Book her now :)

Lillian was awesome looking after our old cat. I told her our cat was old and small and would probably hide for all the visits. But she just loved Lillian! Came out each time, sat in her lap and got lots of ear rubs. Litter and food areas were cleaned well also. Thanks!

About: As dog owners, we understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pets. We have two dogs and truly enjoy spending time with animals of all kinds. We know that pets are family, and we strive to provide dependable care and regular updates so you can have peace of mind. We look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! 🐾 I currently work in HVAC but there are 1-2 days a week I typically have off so on those days I would have a good amount of availability. Also have weekend availability and holiday. I don’t plan on transporting or bringing dogs to my house but I can do any care plan you would like at your house.

About: I’ve been around animals all my life, & I can’t wait until I’m in a situation when I can finally have my own dog again. I’m knowledgeable about pet care & animal behavior, have great attention to detail, & enjoy learning more. I love every critter I meet (although I am partial towards chihuahuas & pits) & I have yet to meet a dog that didn’t like me. My family always had dogs growing up, & I have experience caring for a variety of dogs of different ages. I’ve only had two pet dogs that went through their entire life cycle with me, & my most recent doggo was a shitzu who came to me when she was 11. I spent her last few years trying to make her as comfortable & happy as possible. That’s the goal for every animal I care for. While this is obviously a job, & I do need the money, I genuinely enjoy getting to be helpful, to make someone’s life easier, & to, of course, spend time with dogs. I figure if I have to have a side hustle, it should at least be rewarding!! Thanks for reading!! I am a waitress- I usually work full-time, but it’s the slow season & we have a server surplus at the moment. I’m currently only scheduled for 3 night shifts a week, so my schedule is pretty open. Even on the days I do work, I would be able to check-in & care for the dogs before I go in, & can check on them afterwards as well if needed. Basically, I currently have plenty of time to fit in pet care. I am comfortable staying at someone else’s place; it would be nice to have a change of scenery every once in a while. Of course, I will treat your house with respect & be sure to leave it as it was when I arrived! If they wanna chill & sleep, that’s fine with me, but if they’re really active & need to play, I will play fetch & tug-o-war for hours on end. I have a car & supplies to take care of a dog if it is needed (snacks, poop bags, leash, blankets, first aid kit). I’m familiar with dog breeds & behavior & am aware of different training techniques so I’m not worried about being able to manage any dog- like getting them in their crate at the end of the night, or establishing a relationship with them, etc. I will care for your pet the way you want, but above all I will always care for an animal with the utmost respect & love, 💕

About: ⭐️ Meet and Greets with new clients ⭐️ DETAILED updates with photos/videos ⭐️ Extra Cuddles and Playtime ⭐️Seasoned in professional pet care Hi! I’m Savannah 🤍 your pet’s new favorite sitter (and probably their future bestie 🐾) I’m new to Rover, but I’ve always had a deep love for animals and truly enjoy being around them. At home, I have a sweet cat named Athena, and have always been raised around dogs so i definitely understand each one is different. I’m also a stay-at-home mama to my daughter—so I have a very flexible schedule and lots of time to give your pets the love and attention they deserve. I don’t just “check in” on pets—I take the time to learn their personality so they feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared for.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for about 10 years now. Whether it was a neighbor, family friend, or anyone who reached out for assistance, I love being able to help them out by taking away the stress of finding someone to watch their beloved animal. I’ve also been volunteering at the Williamson County Animal Shelter! I always make sure to do everything asked of me above and beyond while taking care of another’s pet just as if they were my own. While I love taking care of other’s animals, I also have 2 of my own that I love deeply!! Their names are Dakota and Kristof! Because I would want to be able to have a strong reliability on someone while watching my dogs, I will without a doubt make sure you can rely on me to do the same for your animals! I will be as flexible as possible working with your schedule with communication. I have school and work a part time job, but I’m still available early mornings, most of the afternoon, and weekends. As long as you communicate with me, I will try my absolute best to work with my schedule for you. I have a fenced yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep your animal company. I will make sure to keep an eye on your animal wherever we are to make sure they are the safest they can be!

About: I've only ever had experience walking dogs when I think about it, especially my sisters frenchy Oreo or my coworkers frenchy Blaire. It's taking a walk except there's a dog with you which makes it way better I'm self employed with a terrible sleep schedule, so my time is free for whatever I plan to do with it. Need a puppy walked at 3:47 am cause that's what they do? Done I'd care for them how I'd care for Oreo. Feed them at the times they're used to eating and pack it in when it gets to that time. More than likely I'll entertain them till they get tired and the rest is well, rest. I'm not a fan of cages but if they need to be in one that's fine.
