“Elle did an amazing job checking in on my dogs Bruno and Boo and taking them for a walk while I was out of town for work. She took great care of them and I would book her again to take care of them any time!”

About: Hi, I'm Leslie! This is my alternative option since my husband refused to allow me and adopt another fur baby 😅. I've had dogs my entire life. From the time I was a toddler, dogs have been a constant and beloved presence in my world. Growing up, my family always had at least one furry friend, and caring for them became second nature to me. I’ve owned dogs of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments, and each one has taught me something new about love, patience, and responsibility. My daily routine includes long, enjoyable walks, playful training sessions, and careful grooming to keep my dogs healthy and happy. I understand the importance of personalized care and make sure to tailor my approach to meet each dog's unique needs and personality. My home is filled with love and laughter, with plenty of toys, cozy spots for naps, and, of course, lots of belly rubs. My lifelong experience with dogs has given me a deep understanding of their behavior and needs, ensuring they always feel safe, loved, and well-cared for. I genuinely love dogs and find immense joy in their companionship. If you’re looking for a reliable, passionate, and experienced dog sitter, I’d be thrilled to take care of your furry friend as if they were my own. MEET AND GREET REQUIRED Dogs MUST be vaccinated. I’m an elementary teacher who is off in the summer and looking to keep myself occupied during this long break at home. I’m home all day basically unless I run to the store. I live in a house with a big back yard where your fur babies can run around and enjoy nature! We will always have someone out there as well to make sure everything is okay.

“Dolores was so excellent with my little Gizmo. She was very informative in showing the photos and keeping me updated as to how things were going with him...when he ate, when he did his walk, and everything else. I will 100% request Dolores again in the future.”

“An amazing dog sitter! They were reliable, caring, and treated our dog like their own. I loved getting updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind. My dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly loved them. I highly recommend!”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life , I love them to pieces. I keep them active and will do as you’d like for your fur baby! I’ll take them for rides to the park if they love rides and or parks ! I can bathe them if need be! If they stay over night they can sleep in the bed with me. Just like a kid , if you don’t allow something then nor will I ! I have pets of my own so I ask that your pet be UTD on shots and not aggressive :) Look forward to updates and photos of your baby! feel free to contact me with any questions you may have ! Thank you and I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I love animals and have a flexible schedule, I work around you and your baby! Wether that be in your home or mine; they will have similar schedules. In my home: the garage is shut before the main door is opened. My yard is fenced and locked and they will never go out alone. I say that so you know your baby will not have the freedom to attempt escape.
About: I am a proud parent of a (king shepherd) named Anubis. I have recently lost my Lacey at her young age of 14 due to cancer. When a friend told me about this adorable puppy she was looking to find a home for who was abused and abandoned by the breeders due to him having flaws, I immediately knew I wanted him when she told me that. My friend showed up to my door with a puppy he was 8 months old and about 110lbs! He is now 150lbs and the happiest pup ever. I am able to choose what shift I want to take at my job therefore I am able to spend my days helping people with their fur babies as much as possible. I have a decent sized back yard, plus I will be home with the fur babies to play with them and walk and feed them.
About: I have taken care of pets of all sizes all my life. I have experience with multiple dog breed, cats, hamsters, fish etc. Have worked dogs professionally in the past. I have some free time through out the week that allows me to do drop ins and walks with dogs/cats etc! I have a very flexible schedule. I’m able to give your dog all the attention needed, they are never unattended. My main focus on here is drops ins and house sitting.
About: I recently had to put my cat down so I have so much love to give. And I was never allowed to have pets growing up so as an adult, every pet is my "would've been" pet. I treat them as if they are my own. We could send you regular updates and photos of your babies while they are in our care. I know I have separation anxiety when I am away from my little old man for too long so I would want you to be assured that they are in good hands. I also love to have photo shoots with my four legged friends for memories of our good time together. My partner works in office and I work hybrid (mostly at home) and we can give them the love & attention they deserve and will receive. We also enjoy the outdoors and being active so if you want us to tire them out, just say the word! I am also flexible with pick and drop off times and depending on the day, might be able to pick up and drop off for you, it varies on the day and time. We live in a large enough house so separating the animals won't be an issue if that is a concern. I also have a pool so if any of them want a dip in the summer heat and is able to, I will be more than happy to be their lifeguard.
About: I’ve recently used rover to help with my cat, and had an amazing experience and would love to give back to others and do the same! I’m around over Christmas and New Years and wanted to help people out that might need it while they’re traveling over the holidays. Reach out and let me know what you need and we can see what we can get done! I have a guest room I can use as a private space to cat sit. Looking for a way to give back and have fun while doing it :) I work from home and have flexibility to help out during the day or for longer visits when needed! I just need to know the schedule and can work to fit it in. I know every pet is different in what they need, so I just need to understand what your baby needs from me and will work to make them happy and comfortable while you’re away!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats my entire life and truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I currently have two German Shepherds and four cats of my own, including a Sphynx cat, so I’m comfortable caring for a variety of breeds and temperaments. I provide dependable in-home pet sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, allowing your pets to stay comfortable in their familiar environment while you’re away. I’m experienced in administering medications, following special care instructions, and maintaining your pet’s regular routine to help reduce stress. I also worked at a veterinary office during high school (2005–2006), where I gained hands-on experience with animal handling, basic care, and recognizing when a pet may need extra attention. You can count on me to treat your pets like family and provide regular updates for your peace of mind.) have a flexible schedule and can provide dependable care for your pets in the comfort of their own home. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the week, including weekends when needed. I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine and your scheduling needs. I believe pets are happiest in their familiar environment, so I provide attentive care in your home where they feel most comfortable. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, fresh water, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and plenty of affection. I’ll also respect your home, keep things tidy, and send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in caring, reliable hands.
About: I have been surrounded by animals my whole life! With my grandmother being a vet tech and my home always having fur babies, I was raised with the right values to care for and love animals!

About: I genuinely love every pet I care for I treat them like part of my family. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and pets with special needs, so I can handle anything from extra potty breaks and gentle walks to administering meds or following special routines. I’m reliable, attentive, and make sure each pet feels safe, happy, and loved while keeping their routine consistent. I’m a part-time esthetician and a full-time dog lover, so pet care fits easily into my routine. I plan my days around walks, feedings, and playtime, and I’m flexible enough to give pets the time and attention they deserve throughout the day. I offer pet care in my home or yours whatever works best for you! I live in a pet friendly apartment with two dog parks, so your pup will get plenty of safe playtime and exercise. At my place, I keep things clean, cozy, and stick to your pet’s routine. I also offer in-home sitting where I follow your exact instructions so your pet stays comfortable in their own space. I’m reliable, attentive, and always make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved. Plus, I’ll keep you updated while you’re away 🙂
About: I am a Certified Veterinary Assistant (CVA) with hands on experience in both clinical and shelter settings. I currently work at an animal shelter as a Veterinary Assistant. In addition to my veterinary training, I have volunteered for two years with Friends of Rescue Animals, assisted at PetSmart, and have volunteered with Animal Allies of Texas for over 3 years. I have experience with feeding routines, monitoring behavior/health changes, cleaning, and helping animals feel comfortable. I am confident handling pets of different ages, sizes, and temperaments. As a CVA, I’m trained to recognize signs of illness, stress, and discomfort, which allows me to provide attentive care. I currently work full-time (5 days weekly) but I am available all day Mon and Wed for any service that your pet will need. I can easily crate any animals if needed. I prioritize the safety and comfort of animals and following routines. I make sure pets always have water, are fed (according to owner's instructions), and get the exercise, playtime, and attention they need. I learn each pet's personalities, needs, and preferences when caring for them.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 5 years, from my own two cats(Rosie and Ferguson) to friends’ and family’s pets whenever they travel. I’ve sat for and walked senior dogs, so I’m patient with slower paces, stiff joints and pets who need a little extra care! I’m also comfortable with high-energy newborn animals who need a little more attention too! I currently have a fairly flexible schedule. I’m available to maneuver around dates and any last minute things that may pop up for you. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel safest. I know your home is your haven, so I respect your space completely. I follow your routine, leave everything as I found it and lock up every time.
About: I've always had dogs in my life. I'm very comfortable with large dogs. Our house has recently lost our 2 fur babies and although we're not ready to commit to another love, I'm ready to love on your fur babies! For all dog stays, I'll be glad to send photos all day (: Medication and timed feedings are no problem. I love puppies and have trained plenty so I can continue with commands while out in public to help reinforce the hard work you've put in! I've got a part-time job, it takes up 12 hours out of my total week. Hopefully with enough business from Rover I can quit and become full time on rover! Walks will be plenty with lots of different paths for interesting sniff walks. Let me know where you stand with pets on furniture stance because we all know the pups will try and play that they're allowed😂
About: Hi! I'm Tiffany. I honestly love this gig… I get to watch sweet pups that bring extra fun, laughs, and heart-full moments! Pup therapy :) Brewster is my 7-year-old chihuahua mix and my 3-year-old Yorkie mix named Reese. They are both about 12lbs. Little Brew loves having another buddy or 2 to play with or new people to love on and it’s been an adjustment not having his brother to play and bond with. I live in a single story patio home with a nice side yard for dog running and potty, along with ample walking around the neighborhood. I also have a SMALL dog door that leads into the fenced in backyard but it’s small and only fits dogs under approx 30lbs or less. I do typically work outside if the home Monday-Friday, but I am able to provide dog sitting/boarding at my home and can be flexible at time with working at home if needed. The dogs are able to lounge and play throughout the house. Sleeping arrangements can vary depending on preference and how the dogs get along with each other :) I fully understand the need to find suitable care and right place for your 🐶 while we have to be away from them! I am here to help. I use Rover myself when I travel, so I try to see both sides and provide that in my service. I'm responsible, respectful, professional, good at communicating, and would love to help you out with your pet sitting needs. I go above and beyond to help your sweet 🐶 feel at home and comfortable while you are away. Brewster was a foster fail that I adopted a few years ago and he’s very go-with-the-flow and a grateful dog. He’s full of energy and loves to play and fetch! He and I love to take walks around the neighborhood and the local community dog park for play time. Reese is now potty trained and LOVES to play with his brother and be the life of the party. He does well with other dogs and is a very happy go lucky puppy. If I come to your home, I will make sure your furbaby is loved on, fed, walked and gets some fun interaction/play time each visit. If you are looking to have your pup do overnight stays with me at my home, I always try to arrange a meet & greet for new clients to make sure you and your dog are comfortable with the layout of the house, how they feel around me, and so you can observe how your dog and Brewster interact. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your pup or furbaby! Thanks for considering me! :) I am a full-time working professional out of the home Mon-Fri so this is a side gig. I can have pups visit for the day or for a stay. I have a small dog door (dogs under 20lb-ish) that opens to a fully enclosed private backyard with what I have coined a “dog run”. The dogs have mostly free rein to the couches and dog beds and other rugs or furniture they find to their liking. Weekdays I am home between 6-7pm and don’t venture out much. My pup (and of course yours) will get all sorts of love and attention and play time in the mornings, evenings and overnight or when I’m working from home. I treat all pups like they are my own in how I give them love and attention. Trust, love, and safety for your pets is a MUST! I want them to feel comfortable while I watch them. I follow all instructions or rules the owners share with me and communicate any issues or questions in a timely fashion.

About: Hi! I’m a dependable, caring, and attentive sitter who truly enjoys being around animals and creating a safe, calm environment for them. I currently stay at home with my baby, which means your pet will get lots of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day, they’ll never feel alone or neglected. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I have a gentle, hypoallergenic dog at home who is very friendly and well behaved, so I’m comfortable managing multiple pets and making sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I’m happy to accommodate different personalities, energy levels, and routines, whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, or just a peaceful place to relax. What you can expect from me: • A clean, safe, and pet-friendly home • Lots of attention, affection, and supervision • Flexibility with scheduling when possible • Clear communication and updates while you’re away I treat every pet like they’re my own and aim to make their time with me as stress-free and happy as possible. Feel free to reach out with any questions, I’d love to meet you and your pet! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine since I’m home most of the day with my baby. I’m able to provide consistent potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day. Pets are rarely left alone and are always supervised. I follow a calm, structured routine and can easily adjust to your pet’s specific needs, energy level, and schedule. Caring for pets is a natural part of my day, not something I squeeze in. I provide a safe, calm, and fully supervised environment for every pet. In my home, I keep a clean, pet-friendly space and only take a small number of dogs so each one gets plenty of attention. I’m careful with introductions and always prioritize safety and comfort. Pets get regular potty breaks, playtime, and a routine that matches what they’re used to at home. I’m happy to follow any feeding schedules, crate routines, or special instructions. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and stick closely to your pet’s normal routine to keep things familiar and stress free.
