“I hit a home run with Shima! I have an 8th month old German shorthair pointer with high exercise demands daily. Shima was looking to gain knowledge in this field and has been walking, running and training my pup for a month now 2-3 times a week. She does an exceptional job with him and is patient to his needs! Working with a GSP can be one of the toughest breeds to work with. I come home and my pup (Troy Aikman) is happy and relaxed! I work a lot during the week so it is relieving to know he is in such good hands. I would highly recommend Shima for your needs. Troy lights up with energy when she shows up! Thank you Shima!”

About: I started as a little kid taking care of my family dogs.As I got older I watched my grandparents dogs over night.Now I have dog name Summer "Animals aren't just a job for me – they're my entire world! Every day is an adventure filled with wagging tails, purring companions, and the joy of understanding what makes our furry friends tick. My home is often buzzing with happy pets, and I truly believe that living alongside them teaches us so much. This daily immersion in the world of pets means I bring not just experience, but a deep, personal understanding and endless patience to every animal I care for." "When I'm caring for your pets in your home, their safety and well-being are my absolute top priorities. I'm meticulous about following your specific instructions, maintaining routines, and ensuring a secure and comfortable environment for your furry family members. You can trust me to treat your home with the utmost respect and to provide vigilant, loving care so you can have complete peace of mind while you're away."
About: I was raised in a farming community and have cared for all types of livestock and pets. Dogs and cats have always been a part of our family and home. I have an array of pet skills caring for the puppy/kitten stage to the senior stage of a pet’s life. I’m an empty nester and retired educator who misses the opportunity to nurture and provide care. My schedule is extremely flexible and I enjoy interacting with the great outdoors. I would love to incorporate pets into my daily routine of physical activities and exercise. I enjoy socializing with pets by providing care while their owners are away. I care for my pets as my children. Believe pets need to feel secure knowing their human provides affection, respect, nurturing, nutrition, engagement and physical activity.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover based in Granite Shoals near Marble Falls, and I’m happy to travel within an hour of the Austin area to care for your pup. I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly believe they’re family—not just pets. I currently share my home with Josie, my sweet 10-year-old Pug, and Bella, my energetic 2-year-old rescue Pit mix. Having dogs at very different life stages has given me experience with everything from senior care and slower-paced walks to playful energy and enrichment. Over the years, I’ve regularly helped friends care for their dogs—whether that meant walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company while their humans were away. I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and genuinely loving toward every dog I meet. I live a healthy, active lifestyle and enjoy trail walks and neighborhood strolls, always tailoring activity levels to each dog’s needs, age, and personality. Your pup’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your dog—feel free to reach out with any questions! My full time job is mostly remotely, which gives me the flexibility to plan my day around a pet’s needs. This allows me to provide regular walks, meals, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I prioritize safety, trust, and consistency. I follow each pet’s routine closely, ensure secure environments and safe walks, and treat both pets and homes with care and respect.
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, from playful puppies and curious kittens to senior pets who need extra gentleness. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe and loved. I’m comfortable giving medications, keeping feeding routines consistent, and reading pet body language. I’m patient with shy or anxious pets and let them go at their own pace and make sure every pet feels happy, secure, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine and something I love to do. I work remotely two days a week, and my schedule is very flexible and easily adjusted. I make sure each pet gets consistent attention, feeding, and playtime, and I’m happy to follow their routine to keep them happy and comfortable. I make safety and comfort my top priorities while caring for pets in their own home. I always supervise playtime and walks, keep their environment clean and secure, and follow all instructions for feeding, medications, and routines. I’ll also provide regular updates to give you peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I’ve always had animals growing up, and I adore them. Spending time with animals is already something I do on my own, so being given the opportunity to earn money and help others makes it even better. Because this is something I really care about, I give my all. I’m honest and will always show up in a timely manner. I’m a very understanding person, so if anything comes up involving a time change or cancellation, I completely understand. I do want the best for the animals so I’d like any information regarding allergies, likes/dislikes, or anything that would help the animal in anyway beforehand. I request vaccination records before booking new clients to ensure the safety of my animals and myself.
About: I have taken care of any kind of dog since I was 8yrs old. From watching friends dogs to taking them on walks while their owners are at work I love it all. I have had multiple dogs since I was kid and enjoy being around animals as much as possible. I have 2 kids that are half home school half in school. It gives me the flexibility to fit any type of pet care into my daily schedule. I care for others pets in their homes by giving them the love and attention they need while their owners are away. Also taking them on a walk if they have extra energy to get out or just play time in the back yard. Whatever fits the dogs best need I can handle
“This was my first time using Rover. I can’t recommend Jessica enough! My situation was a little different; we are visiting family in Marble Falls but my husband and I spent a few days in Austin and needed someone to walk our dog. We didn’t have personal interaction with Jessica but my mother in law did and said she was very polite and professional. So much so they she shared her information with the neighbors. Thank you Jessica.”

About: I am! ...an enthusiastic, yet calm, pet sitter. I take care to make pets as comfortable as possible. I have the patience to let doggie friends develop trust, while maintaining a safe environment. Engaging my doggie friends in activities such as walks, play, positive reinforcements for good behavior, and healthy treats / meals develops their full personalities. I pick up after them as well! Avoiding boredom and anxiety, I’ve found, is the best way to minimize behavioral issues in pets. Like us, they need a creative outlet for all their energy. That’s why I love sharing my walks with canine companions. Plus, a dog walker is far more affordable than a new couch destroyed by separation anxiety, lol. Remember, a healthy dog is a happy dog!!! Part-time ranch caretaker with flexible schedule. I’m available for evenings/ weekends/ and extended stays w advanced notice. Drop-ins within a 20 mile radius also available. Not currently boarding any new animals on the ranch. Focusing on in-home care within climate controlled environments to minimize stress on the animals and their humans. Happy to stay on site during both day & overnight. Pets are my priority. I try to keep them on the schedule they’re most accustom to. I’m not boarding at this time. There are livestock at my location; chicken, lamb, goat, cat, a Great Pyrenees, raccoon, a variety of snake and insects.
About: I have worked with animals my whole life from cattle horses sheep to dogs. I seem to have more in common with animals than I do humans. I know how to take care of your best friend and their needs. I don’t mind walking dogs that need training would do one on one session with them. Will only walk 2 dogs at atone so they can have their own space. I set at home most of the day until 2:55 My dog would love a play date she gets along with all dogs so they won’t be lonely. Trying to make some extra income! New to rover so bare with me please. If you would like to do a meet and greet before hand I am ok with that to!
About: I’ve owned dogs for the past 20 years. I’ve watched multiple friends and family dogs for them. I’m an animal lover. I just prefer dogs because I’m allergic to cats, even though I own two outside. I’ve worked with rescuers and fosters to help out in the community. This side job would fill my heart just loving your fur baby. I have 5 animals, 2 dogs, 2 cats, and a chameleon. They are spoiled babies. I have to make sure they are taken care of on a daily basis. I would love them! I would play with them, walk them, feed them, whatever needed. In my home my animals are spoiled on a daily basis.
About: I've always had pets in my life. I currently have five rescues dogs and two cats. They make me smile! It gets loud, but I have no regrets. I am a Burnet local for 10 years now. I know it's hard to leave our pets. I will gladly check in on yours and make sure to give them plenty of attention. They will always feel loved and cared for under my watch. My pets are treated as part of my family. I talk to them daily, give them treats, and make sure all of their needs are met.
About: Whether your furry friend is a standoffish cat, a hyper dog, or an opera-singing bird, I am the capable caretaker you can trust to suit their needs and make them feel safe + loved! My schedule as a pet sitter is open to any client! On a trip to see family? Only gone for an hour or two? No problem! I can come over day or night. Whatever your animal needs, I can provide! I do not currently board at my own home, but am available to sit/walk your pet in your area.
