Caring for your pet inside there home will allow not only allow you to be less stress but also your pet as there stay in the normal environment.
“Lily was great. I didn’t have to worry about anything while we were out of town. She was punctual and spent a little time letting my pups out. There were no accidents when I got home. We really appreciate her looking after our pups.”

“We booked with Sarah over 10 times now because she is awesome! We can tell she really cares about our pets and shows them lotsss of love! We have also given her complicated care/feeding instructions and she followed them perfectly. When we’ve had to suddenly change our booking she is always very understanding and does whatever she can to help. We recommend her highly and will continue to book her!”

About: I've had dogs since I was little, and participated in fostering over twenty dogs and puppies alongside my family as a child and young teen. My family currently has a very active over twenty pound doodle, who I am experienced in caring for. I can take care of puppies, young dogs, and older dogs of all shapes and sizes. I am a student and work part-time, capable of checking in and caring for your pets on the daily. I am rather flexible and have the time to commit to longer walks and play time, in addition to ensuring physical needs of the pet are meet. I have many toys (and a lot of very durable balls) I can bring to entertain your pets, along with treats, leashes, and everyday care items. I only provide services at the client's house, but I can bring any additional materials the client may deem important.

About: I absolutely love animals, and have taken care of them for as long as I can remember! I am constantly around animals and have committed my life to them. I have two dogs myself. A boxers and a mountain curr. I take my boys to the dog park atleast four days a week and we go on frequent runs. I am comfortable around all dog types, disabilities or behavioral issues. Two months ago my boxer got diagnosed with cancer, my worst fear. I am able to administer medication or anything your dog needs! I’m a part time server so my schedule is different week to week and I’m taking online classes. I am available for drop ins or house sittings when needed. I am very flexible and can accept last minute bookings. I take my dogs for three 30 minute walks a day. We go to the dog park atleast four days a week as well as frequent runs when I feel up to it. It’s not only beneficial for the dogs but also me!

“Laura is the best pet sitter. She takes great care of my whole crew. She gives them the attention and interaction that they need and keeps me updated with pictures and reports.”


“Sara was amazing with the boys. And so patient. My great Pyrenees can get pretty loud. She gave him his space and let him get used to her. She made multiple trips to meet them before the actual visits. This is my first trip leaving them. Sara sent pictures and kept me updated. Absolutely will use again.”


About: I’ve loved and cared for animals since I was a kid. Over the years, I’ve volunteered at animal shelters and have five pets of my own, all of whom I adore. I truly believe that pets are family and deserve to be treated with the same love, care, and kindness that we give to our loved ones. :) My schedule is quite flexible, allowing me to accommodate drop-in visits throughout the day as needed. Please feel free to reach out with any question. I’m always happy to help and discuss your pet’s care needs. At this time, I am available to provide drop-in visits for your pet. I am committed to following all care instructions carefully to ensure your pet remains comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you are away.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12 and I’ve always had a dog growing up. I am very familiar with all types of dogs and very comfortable around them. I’m currently working part-time through the end of June, so I am free any day after 11 am! In July I am free any day anytime for the most part! I will be out of town June 6-20. I’ve basically grown up around dogs and genuinely love being around them more than most people. I’m super active, patient, and good with all kinds of personalities, from hyper dogs that need to burn energy to clingy dogs that just want attention. I’ll keep you updated, make sure they feel comfortable, and treat them like they’re my own while you’re gone.
About: I’m a professional dog sitter with hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats for extended periods — including over a month at a time. I’ve cared for large dogs and cats in their homes, ensuring they’re well-fed, walked, and loved while keeping their space clean and comfortable. My responsibilities include feeding, walking, picking up waste, changing litter, and performing light housekeeping to maintain a tidy environment. I’m reliable, attentive, and dedicated to making pets feel safe and happy while their owners are away. I have open availability and can accommodate flexible schedules, including weekdays, weekends, and holidays. Whether you need daily visits or extended stays, I’m always available to provide reliable, loving pet care. I provide loving, attentive care for pets both in my home and in clients’ homes. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of playtime, walks, and affection. When caring for pets in clients’ homes, I follow their regular routines to keep them happy and stress-free — handling feeding, walks, litter changes, and light housework with care and reliability.

“I'm so happy that Cathy was able to watch over Shadow again! On top of being caring and attentive, Shadow unfortunately had some GI issues while I was gone and Cathy took care of this. That's above and beyond caring. I truly wish that Rover would allow us to tip over 30% because Cathy's service was worth far more to me than that.”

“Callum was awesome, his communication skills were great and he took very good care of my animals. There were no hiccups and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my little guys were in good hands. I would highly recommend Callum.”

About: I will spoil your dog with affection and treat it as my own. I’ve owned dogs since I was 5 years old, and all of them have been deeply loved and cared for. Dogs make my heart happy and I absolutely love interacting with and taking care of them! I will walk (or even run) with them until they want to go home, or play with them until they’re over it when I do a drop-in visit. I'll make sure to only feed them what you request, because we don't want unhealthy pups. I just graduated from UHCL with my master's degree in clinical psychology - looking to make some extra money and meet some new furry friends before I start working full-time as a therapist! I won't be working full-time for at least a month or two, so my availability is pretty open. Once I start working, I'll still be available for some pet care, but my schedule won't be as flexible. I will be extra careful to follow any guidelines you provide to keep your pups and your home safe. This includes being aware of our surroundings on walks and making sure all the doors are locked when I leave your home!
El Lago dog parents share their Rover experiences
Najwa was our first experience using the Rover app and we couldn’t be happier! She dropped in to look after our fur babies while we were traveling with so much love and care, going well above and beyond what was expected. She was quick and easy to communicate with and provided us with great photos and updates during each visit which helped assure me that they were in the best of hands. Definitely will be using Najwa again in the future!

Faith has tended to our beasties on two separate occasions (once during a long weekend that included some nasty weather and again over a long holiday weekend), and we will definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a kind, reliable and wonderfully personable caregiver!

Devon is the greatest! He is friendly, dependable, and has a very high level of care for my trio of pups! I had to alter the details (changed time slightly) and he was very accommodating. I trust him fully. A+++ we will look forward to the next visit in the future.

We needed a last minute dog sitter for our three elderly dogs, and thank goodness we found Ella! She came over before the visit to meet us and the dogs who loved her immediately. She gave them their medicine and tons of love. She also took the cutest pictures. We will definitely be using her again!

We had an amazing experience with Sydney through the Rover app! From the moment we connected, she was professional, kind, and incredibly attentive to our pet’s needs. She sent regular updates, adorable photos, and went above and beyond to make sure our furry friend felt safe, comfortable, and loved while we were away. It’s clear that Sydney genuinely cares about animals, and we could tell our pet was in the best hands. When we got back, everything was clean, organized, and our pet was happy and relaxed which gave us so much peace of mind. We highly recommend Sydney to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and responsible pet sitter. She’s truly a gem, and we’ll definitely be booking with her again!
