About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 5 and since then have pet-sat for dogs, cats, chickens, fish, and turtles. Additionally, I have 5+ years of experience training and taking care of horses of all ages. I am currently working part-time 11 am to 4:30 pm on Mondays and 8 am to 4:30 pm Tuesday-Thursday. I am completely free Fridays and on the weekend. I am living in an apartment with a closed in grassy courtyard with no way to crate an animal in my home, but I do have a balcony.
“Adoriam went above and beyond for our fur babies! She handled a difficult situation with our pups extremely well and treated all of our animals with love and care. Highly Recommend!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 5 years, but I’ve been around animals my whole life. I grew up with dogs, and whenever my friends travel, I’m usually the person they ask to look after their dogs. I’ve cared for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I’m comfortable making sure they get the exercise, attention, and care they need. I’m also comfortable taking care of cats. My sister has a cat, and I regularly stop by to take care of her when she’s away, including feeding her, spending time with her, and making sure she’s doing well. I’m currently a proud dog dad to a Maltese and a Maltipoo, so I know firsthand how much trust is involved in leaving your pets with someone else. I’ll treat your pets with the same care and attention I give my own. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I can usually work with your pet’s routine and your specific needs. I’m happy to accommodate different drop-off and pickup times, walks, feeding schedules, and other care routines. Just let me know what your pet is used to, and I’ll do my best to keep their normal schedule while you’re away. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re with me. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs and will follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and routines. For walks, daycare, and drop-in visits, I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention and care while keeping a safe and comfortable environment. I’ll also keep you updated so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“Lanie was super attentive and caring for my cat while I was out of town! She spent a week doing daily check ins on my pets and left very thorough reports and photos to keep me updated! I really appreciated the time and care she put in to go the extra mile!”
About: Leaving your pet in someone else’s care can feel stressful, and I understand how important it is to know they are safe, comfortable, and genuinely loved while you are away. I will treat your pet like one of my own and provide clear communication, regular updates, and plenty of photos so you can feel confident and connected throughout their time with me! After years of caring for pets, I understand that every animal has their own unique needs, personality, routine, and comfort level. I take the time to get to know each pet, learn what makes them feel safe, and provide personalized care that helps them feel comfortable and at home. I have been loving and caring for dogs my entire life and have gained extensive hands-on experience through rescue and foster work. I currently foster for a rescue that specializes in senior dogs and small breeds, but I am also comfortable caring for larger dogs, including German Shepherds, Goldendoodles, and Labs. Additionally, I have experience working with shy dogs, energetic younger pups, senior pets, and dogs with medical or behavioral needs. I am also comfortable administering medication, providing slow and safe introductions, following detailed feeding and care routines, and taking calm, attentive leash walks. Whether your pet needs extra patience, plenty of playtime, quiet companionship, or a little reassurance, I will make sure they feel safe, understood, and loved. You can expect dependable care, honest communication, thoughtful updates, and plenty of photos throughout my time with your pup! I’m currently spending the summer in Colorado for an internship that only requires me to be on-site about once or twice a week. I also work remotely for an animal rescue, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be home most of the day. Because of that flexibility, your pet will receive plenty of attention throughout the day—not just quick check-ins. I can provide frequent potty breaks, shorter or longer walks depending on your pet’s needs, playtime, enrichment activities, feeding, medication, and lots of cuddles and companionship. Whether your pet enjoys outdoor adventures, puzzle toys, gentle walks, or relaxing on the couch, I have the time to follow their normal routine and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities! I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all ages and sized, including puppies, seniors, and pets with medical needs. I believe in slow introductions, positive reinforcement, and maintaining each pet's normal routine to reduce stress. I'll treat your home with the same respect I treat my own and will keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. I also have experience administering medications and recognizing changes in behavior or health that may require attention.
“We're sticking with Silas because, over multiple bookings, he has consistently performed above and beyond. Will be booking another as soon as I finish this review. Very much appreciated!!!”
“Stassney did wonderful with my goofy crew! The all got exactly what they needed as far as attention and 1:1 exercise while I was gone and the updates for each visit provided peace of mind, especially with my senior pup who’s health is not the best.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since sophomore year of high school and I feel pretty comfortable with any dog of any size! I would take very good care of each dog I encounter to ensure they are safe. I’m currently a college student at Texas A&M, so I am more flexible friday through sunday for dog sitting. As well as in the mornings on mondays, wednesday, and friday for dog walking. I always follow the owners instructions on how to best accommodate the dog. And in the clients house I make sure to maintain boundaries and ensure the dog is cared for and safe.
About: I’ve cared for dogs for the last 10 years (both my own and my relatives). I also worked at a vet clinic for a year, so I have lots of experience with different breeds/ages/temperaments/needs/etc! I’m currently attending Texas A&M University, so my schedule is pretty flexible! Monday and Wednesday evenings are the only times that are more challenging for me. I have a smaller apartment and a super playful pup! It’s good for a dog that likes to chill or play. We also love long walks to help exercise and tire out the pups!
About: I've been pet sitting since I was a kid and have been taking care of animals my whole life! My husband and I have a border collie that means the world to us, so I know how important it is to have someone you can trust watching your babies. I am a part-time college student so my schedule is super flexible! I'm sure we can work something out to help care for your pets when you have to leave town! I am definitely willing to be flexible to make sure that your pet's needs are being met while you are gone! As a pet owner myself, your pet's safety and well-being are super important to me!
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have had three dogs that my family and I have cared for ourselves. I’m comfortable with dogs of different personalities and enjoy giving them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and affection. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs. Most importantly, I’ll treat your dog like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. My schedule is currently very flexible, as I don’t start college until August 24th, so I’m available throughout the day for your pets! Once classes begin, I’ll be available in the afternoons and evenings. On Mondays and Wednesdays, I’m available after 4:00 PM, and on Tuesdays and Thursdays, I’m available after 3:00 PM. I’m completely available on Fridays, as well as most weekends. I’m happy to work with your schedule and provide consistent, reliable care for your pet. I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. In a client’s home, I’ll follow their routines and instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any other special care. I’m respectful of each home and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision. My goal is to create a calm, safe environment where your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away.
“Tatiana was great! She was quick to respond to my booking request and communicated a lot leading up to the visit to determine what my cats needed. She documented if they ate, drank, or used the litter box during the drop-in visit, which is more than my other cat sitters have typically done. Based on the photos she sent, my cats were comfortable around her! I will definitely be having her stop by again!”
“Amelia came to the rescue last minute when we forgot about an event we had to attend in Austin. We reached out explained the situation and she was willing to mobilize and help! We only used her for one visit, but will be booking her in the future!”
About: I’ve had pets since I was a child, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I currently have 5 cats and grew up with a family dog who I loved taking on walks, playing with, and spending time with. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy making sure pets feel happy, safe, and cared for. I currently attend Blinn College in Bryan Monday through Thursday and also work a part-time job. I’d love to find pet-care opportunities that fit into my free time between school and work. Feel free to message me with the dates and times you need, and I’ll let you know if I’m available! I want to make this full time if I can! Give me a chance 💕 I’m very understanding and respectful of each pet’s routines, rules, and needs. Just let me know how you care for your babies, and I’ll follow your instructions! I also respect your home and property and will make sure everything is kept clean and just as I found it.

Christina was so great! She responded right away and was so friendly and reassuring. She came by for a meet and greet and made me feel very secure that my pets would be well cared for. She sent pics and feedback from her visits and I will definitely be booking her the next time we need a sitter!!
We are so grateful for the care and attention Cole & Casey gave our pets while we were away. Communication was excellent, and our pets were happy and well cared for when we returned home. We would definitely recommend Cole & Casey and would be using them again.
Faith was so kind and caring with my dog! She sent the sweetest report cards to look at while I was away at work, and went above and beyond my expectations! I know my dog enjoyed her company! I never worried about a thing, she communicated so well. Appreciate her so much! 💗

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 College Station 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!
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in College Station with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
