“Arantxa was a wonderful sitter. She kept my dogs on their regular routine and sent consistent, cute updates that gave me peace of mind. I also appreciated her taking the time to have a meet-and-greet and a trial walk before my longer trip. Knowing my dogs were cared for so thoughtfully made it easy to relax while I was away.”
“Jewel was an amazing caretaker for Bella. She was a clear communicator, showed great care for Bella, and left my home spotless at her departure. More importantly Bella loved her and was very happy to spend time with her.”
“Melondy was extremely communicative and thoughtful during her stay with Layla. She made sure she came over right on time, sent me regular updates on how Layla was doing and followed the pet care instructions to the letter. Additionally she was respectful of our space and left the house spotless! I would absolutely book again!”
“Rasika was amazing to work with. I needed someone very last minute and she was very fast to respond and arrange for us to introduce her to Ekko. She has good experience working with dogs and is great at ensuring they are comfortable and relaxed. She sent very frequent updates and photos during her time with Ekko to show things are going well. Highly recommend working with her!”
“Mo did a fantastic job taking care of our senior dog. Mo’s experience showed when asking for every possible detail on how best to care for both animals. Communicated very well, and kept everything nice and clean. Highly recommend.”
“Melissa is an absolute angel! She took the best care of our two little girls. She was super communicative, asked great questions, and went above and beyond to ensure our girls were well taken care of and we were anxiety-free. So grateful!! Thank you, Melissa!! ❤️”
“It was so great to be able to rely on Dina for the best service possible for my Kaila. Kaila is a high energy pup and I was so grateful for Dina to make sure that she would be all tired out and happy to see me home! I highly recommend Dina - she's wonderful with Kaila!! I would have given this 10 stars if there was an option. thanks, Dina!”
“I can't speak highly enough of Christine! She was attentive, communicative, and overall just such an amazing sitter for our pets. She went above and beyond to make our pets feel at home, safe, and loved. We will also reach out to Christine to watch our babies and you should too!”
“Havana was great! We returned to a very happy pup. Her response time was quick and she followed all instructions. She watched our house and our pup and we will definitely be booking her again!”
“Mary is awesome! She's very communicative and gives our dogs the extra attention they need while we're away. She's very reliable and really came through when my travel plans home were cancelled unexpectedly and she was able to extend her stay for an extra day.”
“She was very punctual for the sit and sent pictures of how both of my pets were doing anytime I asked for them. When I got home both of my pets were very relaxed. My dog has a lot of eye care needs and had developed an eye ulcer before the appointed sit, Erica was fantastic through this. My dog needed meds 3 times a day and when I got back his eye was visibly in a better place than when I left. It was really easy to work with Erica and I would definitely hire her again.”
About: As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care. I’m very patient, dependable, and attentive to all types of animal personalities, and I’ll always treat your pets with the same love and care I’d want for my own. We have two sweet dogs of our own that are friendly to all dogs and people, and are always up to date on necessary vaccinations. We live in a 1,400 sq ft townhome in the heart of Clarksville, and although we no longer have a yard, we have a large open green space right next to our complex and are just a block away from a dog park that we use constantly. Since I'm home all day, your pet will receive plenty of attention, playtime, and love throughout their stay! (Plus lots of pictures of them to send your way!) Since I'm home all day, your dog will receive plenty of attention, supervision, playtime, and love throughout their stay! This also allows me to provide flexible scheduling and attentive care for drop-in visits, walks, and house sitting needs. I always try to keep pets on the routine they're used to, whether they're staying in my home or I'm caring for them in theirs. I follow feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and any other preferences the owner provides. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family and have plenty of attention, supervision, and opportunities for play and relaxation. When caring for pets in a client's home, I make it a priority to respect both the pet's routine and the owner's space while providing lots of love, care, and updates along the way.
“Brittany was amazing as usual! She took care of Murray & Charlie over our wedding weekend. I was able to enjoy our wedding so much more knowing our boys were with their BFFs, Brittany and Duke. She is a clear communicator and takes awesome pictures as well! Finally, she made sure to do a smooth handoff with the other dogsitter who was covering part of our honeymoon. 1000000/10 would recommend.”
“Words can’t express how wonderful Matthew is! We were a bit nervous using Rover the first time, especially because we were leaving the country for 10 days and have some quirky, special pugs. But Matthew was a total pro and super nice guy! He took such great care of our two pugs and our home. He was very communicative, quick to respond, and super tidy. We loved getting all the pics and videos he shared. He made everything so easy and stress-free. He truly went above and beyond, and we 100% would love to have him housesit and take care of our dogs again. Highly recommend!”
“Cienne took great care of my pups! She stayed at my home and sent lots of updates which I love. My girls looked very happy and comfortable. Will definitely have her over again!”
“Kim left the house spotless and offered great care to our cat and dog. The babies looked great and were very happy and playful when we got home. We are definitely rebooking!”

Allie housesat for me while I was out of town and was wonderful with Bisou. Her communication was excellent- she kept me updated throughout with photos and regular checkins. There were also some small things I needed done around the house that she was able to take care of for me with no hesitation. I'd definitely book her again and highly recommend her!
Sterling is fantastic! From our meet-and-greet, she was warm, friendly, and immediately put me at ease. The pups took to her right away, and I felt confident leaving them in her care. The photos, videos, and updates throughout the stay were much appreciated. Her communication was excellent, and it was reassuring to know how the dogs were doing while I was away. It was clear they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. The Happy Meal and I highly recommend Sterling to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and communicative. I'll definitely be booking with her again.
Amelia did a great job with baby O - from meet and greet where she was asking a lot of questions and taking thorough notes to before and during the stay when she was clarifying expectations and giving updates. I would absolutely have her house sit and watch baby O again.
Natalie stayed at our house and took incredible care of our puppy, Peach! She was communicative, sent daily photos, and cared for/trained/played with Peach perfect. She also kept our house in perfect condition. We highly recommend her to any Rover dog owners! 🐶 🍑
Caroline was wonderful with my dog. She has such a friendly, reassuring demeanor, and I really appreciated how attentive and communicative she was throughout the visit. She took especially thoughtful care of my senior dog, making sure he was comfortable and well looked after. I would absolutely book with her again!
Marina was incredible with Ruger. She sent photo updates that put us completely at ease and you could tell he was having the best time. She’s reliable, communicative, and clearly adores dogs. We’d 100% recommend her and we’re so grateful we chose her. If I lived in Austin she would be my choice every time and when we visit there again I will request her every time.
