“Sabrina was WONDERFUL! She was so good with our cats (and our turtle!). She always provided a daily status and photos of all of our animals. The cats took to her right away. She followed instructions perfectly. Everything was in perfect order when we got home the next week, and the kitties seemed very happy and well-cared for. I highly recommend Sabrina to care for your pets! You won't be disappointed!”

“Our 2nd time having Jess care for our 3 cats and she's phenomenal! Our cats remembered her from the first time and were completely comfortable already. Her check-ins were great and we recommend her 100%!”

“Paris was very commutative and did a great job taking care of the stray(s) I feed during the winter storm! We booked a trip for our birthdays that just so happened to be the week DFW was going to ice over and Paris still made it a point to get the job done and feed the kitties! I'm very appreciative of her support with fixing the tarp and things I had outside that got ruined by the wind to keep the cats dry and warm. I will book her again and recommend her to others. Thanks!”
“Tereza did excellent in dropping by to care for my shiba inu pancake while I was out at NYC for vacation. Despite being new to rover, she took care of him real well and pancake got along with her.”

“Another successful booking! Our furbabies are getting more and more comfortable with Wintana, especially the timid little fella; the little girl loves the rubs and cuddles Wintana provides, which makes me happy! We love the awesome pictures that Wintana took. There were a couple instances where Wintana was held up for whatever reason which caused her to be a little late, but all in all she still took good care of them and stayed around for the allotted time. Will definitely be booking again!”


About: Hi my name is Abi. I’ve spent the last year caring for dogs of all kinds, and there’s nothing I take more seriously than making sure a pet feels safe and loved while their owner is away. One thing that genuinely sets me apart: I’m experienced handling multiple dogs at once. Whether you have a duo that plays off each other’s energy or a household with very different personalities, I know how to keep the dynamic balanced and every dog feeling attended to. I am a college student currently home trying to make extra money! my time is genuinely flexible. I’m available every morning, afternoon and evening on weekdays, and largely wide open on weekends. Pet care fits naturally into that rhythm, I can stop by for midday check ins on days I have lighter schedules, and commit to longer visits or overnight stays when needed. Dogs thrive on consistency, and I build my availability around making sure they get that When I’m in your home, I treat it with the same care and respect I’d want someone to show mine. I follow your routines as closely as possible. feeding schedules, walk routes, commands your dog responds to, because familiarity keeps pets calm and settled. I always double-check doors, gates, and leashes before any outdoor time, and I keep a close eye on interactions when multiple dogs are involved to make sure everyone stays comfortable. You’ll get updates and photos so you’re never left wondering.
About: I’ve taken care of different kinds of animals from turtles to pit bulls with 11 puppies, as well as old dogs with fears or diseases who need special medicine. I am currently working part time and I’m still in school. I would be available 1-5 on weekdays and whatever times we can work out on weekends I do live in an apartment so my services would either have to be dog walking or house sitting at the clients house. I care for animals like I would care for a child: making sure they are fed, cleaned, comfortable, and frequent bathroom breaks.

About: I've been taking care of pets since 2022! I am flexible when it comes to drop-in visits and dog-walking! I have cared for my neighbors' and family friends' pets as I care for my own! Looking forward to working with you! I am currently a graduate student at UT Arlington in their social work program. I intern at Methodist Dallas Medical Center three times a week, and I work part time the rest of the week/ weekend. My schedule often varies, but I will make sure to keep my calendar updated each month. If certain times don't work for you, just let me know! I am very flexible! I have a Belgian Malinois (Star) that I walk often because of her endless energy! I enjoy playing with her whenever I am home from my internship or class. Not only will I conduct the necessities for your pet, but I will also make sure I put all my love and care into them!
“Our cats are always happy to see Shelly - even our scaredy cat knows she is a friend. She has once again made sure that we can go out of town and not worry about our family that is at home.”

About: Lifelong dog lover offering walks, playtime, snuggles, and in-home sitting. I specialize in giving pups the attention and routine they need to feel happy and secure while you are away! I am blessed to be able to work from home all week which gives me the ability to take breaks whenever the dogs need attention. I have a large fenced in yard and two fur babies to keep your dog company. I can crate your dog if that is your routine, or they can roam free.

“Kelsey is really fantastic! She actually plays with my dogs during the drop-in (unlike other sitters I've had), even though they're old and grumpy sometimes, and if they're not in the mood to play, she at least talks to them and pets them. She's super-punctual and overall a lovely person.”

“Kyra was amazing and did so well with my babies! I got to enjoy my vacation without a single worry about them. She was thorough and made sure to get all the information she needed to take good care of my cats. I definitely recommend her and will be hiring her again the future!”

About: I have been a dog walker, dog bather, kennel tech, and worked at wildlife rehab. To say I love animals is an understatement, and I can't wait to meet and care for yours! I have been pet sitting in people's homes for nearly 20 years now, and have worked professionally with animals for many years. Dogs to Hedgehogs and snakes, tell me how to best care for your pets and I will exceed your expectations. I have watched over nursing puppies in shelters, and senior dogs in veterinary care and boarding, so I have experience with animals with anxiety and giving medications. I am on summer break from work at a local school, so your little ones will have my full attention. I do have a few 2/3 hr events two evenings a week, but I will be available for any pets in training, or who may need more frequents outdoor breaks. Because I understand that for many pets, consistency is very important, I try to stick as close to your regular walk/outside schedules as possible to make sure routines are kept just that*. Since every animal is different, I will let your pet lead the way with how much attention/ what kind of enrichment they like. I don't mean to brag, but my belly rubs are the bark of the town my neighborhood. **With the summer heat, I expect any walks taken will be very early or as the sun is setting so their paws are protected.
“We used Jayla for our Ultra fearful lab mix & she has been an absolute God send!! We took an overdue long vacation, but like clockwork Jayla showed up for the drop ins each and everytime! Even when she had to use ubers to do so. We will 100% use her again and definitely recommend her!”

Corrina was awesome with my two cats! She played with my friendly, overly brave boy and won over my shy (okay, scared) girl. She adhered to my recommendations for care and schedules and asked applicable follow-up questions as needed. It was reassuring to have my pets in such capable and caring hands. I would absolutely recommend Corrina to anyone and rebook whenever our schedules align.

Whitney is the best. I was in late meetings for two days and Whitney took good care of my Princess. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for someone to do a drop in. She went over and above to make sure my Princess got her walks in and that she was fed. I have no complaints, Princess love her and responds to her very well. She made Princess feel real comfortable. I will be using her service again in the future.

We had an emergency sitting situation and Alondra responded the same day—an absolute lifesaver! This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was on time for every visit, treated our furbabies with so much love and care, and was respectful and thoughtful with our home. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in great hands. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!

Elaine is so trustful and great at communication. She made me have such peace of mind with leaving my two cats for a whole week. My cats aren’t the most social and get a little fiesty and she handled it all so caring. I would most definitely recommend her for any of your animals.
