About: What sets me apart is the level of personal care, attention, and space I provide for every dog. As a full-time homemaker and dedicated dog mom, I have the time to give each guest the supervision, companionship, and affection they deserve instead of leaving them alone for long periods. I have hands-on experience caring for my own two Cane Corsos, a large working breed that requires consistency, patience, and confident handling. This experience has taught me how to understand different personalities, recognize body language, and create a calm, safe environment for dogs of different sizes and energy levels. My home offers a fully fenced 2.41-acre country property, giving dogs plenty of room to safely run, explore, and play. I also understand that not every dog enjoys group play, so I can separate dogs when needed to ensure everyone stays comfortable, relaxed, and safe. I believe every dog is unique. I take the time to follow each owner’s care instructions, feeding schedule, exercise routine, and preferences so your pet feels as close to home as possible. I also provide regular updates and photos, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. For me, this isn’t just pet sitting—it’s providing a loving, trustworthy home where your furry family member is treated with the same care and respect I give my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life because I’m a full-time homemaker and devoted dog mom. Being home throughout the day allows me to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, feeding on schedule, playtime, exercise, and plenty of love and attention for every dog in my care. Each day includes supervised outdoor time on our fully fenced 2.41-acre property, enrichment activities, cuddle time, and a comfortable place to rest indoors. I also make sure every guest follows their owner’s routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe, relaxed, and at home. As a furry parent myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your beloved companion. I treat every dog as if they were my own, giving them patience, kindness, and personalized care throughout their stay. My goal is to provide a calm, clean, and loving environment where dogs can enjoy themselves while their owners have complete peace of mind. At Country Paws Retreat, your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I provide a peaceful, loving home where every dog is treated like family. My 2.41-acre fully fenced property offers plenty of secure space to run, play, explore, and relax in a safe country setting. I understand that leaving your furry family member with someone new takes trust. That’s why I provide attentive, personalized care, regular potty breaks, supervised playtime, fresh water, and lots of love and affection throughout the day. I keep a close eye on every dog to ensure they are safe, comfortable, and enjoying their stay. As a proud owner of two friendly Cane Corsos, I have experience caring for large breeds and understand that every dog has a unique personality. If needed, dogs can be separated during playtime or rest periods to ensure everyone’s comfort and safety. Whether your pup is here for daycare or an extended stay, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing they’re in a clean, secure, and caring environment where they’ll receive the attention they deserve. My goal is for every guest to leave happy, relaxed, and excited to come back!

“I could not have asked for more with Mayra as Bandit's sitter for almost two weeks. It was obvious to me that she was a good soul with a kind heart from the moment I met her. She was very responsive and Bandit took to her immediately. She sent photos and messages every day to assure me that he was doing well. She has a lovely home with a screened in porch. When I picked up Bandit he was reluctant to leave, lol. He looked great, well-maintained and bathed. He sometimes won't eat and has loose stool from stress in an unfamiliar environment but his stool was totally normal and he had a good appetite. I have already scheduled a second stay with her. Can't give her enough praise.”

As both a lifelong dog and horse lover, I’m comfortable caring for animals of all sizes and personalities.

I treat every dog like they’re part of the family, providing lots of attention, playtime, and affection while keeping owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. Whether your dog loves to run, relax, or just wants extra cuddles, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care in a safe, country setting. Pet care fits naturally into my daily schedule because I’m a stay-at-home mom to my toddler. Being home throughout the day allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, regular exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. Your pet won’t be left alone for long periods and will receive lots of love and supervision in a calm, family-oriented environment. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, and I love incorporating them into our daily routine! In my home, pets have plenty of room to play and explore on our property while always being supervised. I provide a clean, alm environment with lots of attention, playtime, and affction so they feel like part of the family. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both the home and the pet’s routine.

I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

I was very nervous about leaving my 2 small rescue dogs who are very attached to me. But Alicia made me feel very confident with her kindness and love for her own animals. My dogs did fine, she sent me photos of them, and I was able to enjoy my trip away knowing they were in good hands!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Del Mar Heights home-away-from-home, packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Del Mar Heights.

<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Del Mar Heights sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in TX ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
