“Lilyanna was amazing! Even though both of us had hectic weeks going into my time away from home she was communicative and she sent so many pictures of my girls. When I got home they were happy and relaxed and I could tell they had been well cared for. Thanks Lilyanna!”
About: I’ve always taken care of neighbors and friends dogs growing up and I take my own dogs on long walks at the park and make sure to feed them the best food we can. I love giving them baths and training them! I’m currently working a weekday job from 12 to 4 so early mornings, evenings and weekends I’m completely available to watch your creatures or/critters I have two dogs who enjoy just under an acre of fenced in yard, my husky loves to hunt lizards but my Aussie always scares them off!
“Lucia was amazing! We’ve never used Rover for our cats but so glad we did. Lucia was responsive, loving and caring the whole way through. She sent pictures on each visit. We have one cat that’s pretty shy with new people but she warmed up to Lucia pretty quick which says a lot.”
About: I have always loved fur animals! I was raised having dogs in the home and helping with neighbor pets when I was available. I am trained to care for puppies, small to medium-size dogs and cats. I do work full-time during the week but flexible with timely bookings and advanced notice. I do believe in giving the pets all the tenderness, love, and care they deserve. I do work full-time during the week and do commute daily. However, the early evenings are my available time. I do often have 3 day weekends and open to checking and being with the pets if needed. I do ask to have some flexibility to run errands, and I do attend classes on the weekends if scheduled. I am a grad student. I treat the client's home as my own. I am a very clean, tidy and responsible person. I am open to overnight visits but do request some flexibility depending on my schedule. I am open and available to walk pets as needed once I am back from work or not attending classes.
“This was our second time booking with Isabella. Her calm demeanor and positive energy were a great fit for our skittish kitty. Our travel plans changed more than once, and Isabella was flexible, which was so nice. She's the best!”
“Hiccup and Echo enthusiastically recommend Jennifer to be a pet sitter for your fur babies. We looked forward to when she would arrive to feed us and have a some playtime. We really appreciated that she made our humans feel less anxious and have the ability enjoy their trip knowing we were taken care of. Once again, we highly recommend Jennifer for any of your pet sitting needs.”
About: I grew up surrounded by animals. I've taken care of dogs, cats, goats, chickens, rabbits, guinea pigs, and more. I have a particular soft spot for rats because I kept them as pets for over a decade. I also rehabilitated a couple of red-eared sliders growing up, have had some experience caring for bearded dragons, and had a pet tarantula many years ago. As of recently, I've started volunteering with a Texas wildlife rescue and rehabilitation facility in Kendalia, Texas. Suffice to say, my love of animals runs deep. My experience is relatively varied, and whether you want me to farm-sit or dog-sit, I am both excited and prepared to do either. I volunteer weekly for Kendalia Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation, where I am surrounded by many different kinds of animals, and I am constantly learning new things about their care needs. Over the summer, when I return to my family, I resume my usual responsibilities and mix pig feed, feed out hay to our goats, put up the chickens, clean as and where it's needed, and make sure that everybody's water is always clean and topped off. The routines surrounding these animals are second-nature to me, and I'm very comfortable around them, and find time spent looking out for them to be very fulfilling. I think it's very important to engage with the animals under my care, and I understand that that can look a bit different for each animal. If I'm going to be caring for cats, then I'll be sure to take the time to wiggle a cat wand or wave a laser pointer around. They will also absolutely get an occasional Churu as long as that's an acceptable treat. For dogs, I'm going to make sure I take ample time to play fetch with them, and that they get a nice long walk each day at least once.
“Christine is excellent! What I like about her is she communicates well and clearly follows every instruction you ask her. Paris our cat was well taken care of. She was on time and updated if she's on her way and once she finished the drop-in. Definitely a trusted sitter! I will highly recommend her. Thank you so much Christine! :)”
“Sarah was great. She was able to take over when we had a last minute emergency need for a live-in cat sitter, and we came home to find our cats relaxed and our house clean and well taken care of. She was responsible and responsive and sent us regular updates. We highly recommend her!”
“Iva took the best possible care of Archie for us for months until we got back home tonight. We were excited to see Archie healthy and happy and the house was in excellent condition. Thank you so much Iva, we are so very grateful!”
About: I’ve been around animals ever since I was little, I currently am a Vet technician at manchaca village veterinary care and love it ! I also have been a pet and house sitter for several years in my home town and loved it and want to get back into it since moving to Austin . :) I am available all day on the weekends to house sit and dog sit , I also am Available after 6 on the week days. Let know what you need and I can make it work. I have two chihuahuas and a pit mix along with a sphynx cat named mushu. I have a fenced yard that they love to play in. When house sitting I always try to play with the pets and give them all the affection while their owners are gone
“Cheryal is the best I have worked with! She is so caring and considerate; I feel at ease leaving my fur baby with her. She also takes amazing photos!! Thanks so much Cheryal ♥️”
About: I have rescue for 40 years and really connect with animals. Sad to say, my daughter said sometimes better than people. They are people to me! Trust is always the most important for me with the animals I care for. I fit into their schedule mostly. So they can return home with out to much adjustment if at all. The dogs and cats I have been watching tend to like the fact that I can meet their needs as they should. I am semi retired and work at home so I like to keep there routines as much as I can. So that the owners do not have to go through all the transitions. I very active as well. I like to create a trust/bond so the owners that I have been helping to date tend to like that I am ready available because like consistency for they animal, they do not like to switch sitters. That I would prefer and so do most of my clients. They need to feel at home. Also would prefer to have knowledge of pets doctor. Never have needed. Also any personally traits on need to know basis. Every Pet in different. I have not had many bookings on the rover site to date, but always been 100%. Only because I have a lot clients that I have had for a long time on my own and at the complex I at. Lots of word of mouth for me. I only watch one on one at a time. I believe in giving my full attention one at a time. I like to keep with there owners schedule as best I can. So that is makes the transition of coming and going easy. Animals just seem to get attached to me. Trust is the most important for all animals I care for.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Fitzhugh
We had a great experience with Kimberlee. She was reliable, professional, and thorough while looking after our very skittish kitty, Mia. She sent photo updates of each visit, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. She also took care of our houseplants, fed the birds outside and refilled the hummingbird feeder. Highly recommend Kimberlee!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Exceptional Care Olivia took care of our Siamese, Bailey, for five days over the Christmas holiday, and we couldn’t be more impressed. From the very beginning, she made sure Bailey had every creature comfort and treated her with so much patience and respect. She sent plenty of photos for our peace of mind, and she took the time to truly understand Bailey’s personality and routines—which made us feel completely confident in her care. She also went above and beyond—thoroughly cleaning Bailey’s litter box and keeping everything spotless. It was a blessing to find someone this attentive, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in our pet’s well‑being. We will absolutely be rebooking Olivia any time we need a Rover. She is truly outstanding.
Brian was an excellent sitter. He was very attentive to the needs of our kitties. He gave detailed summaries after each visit and sent great pictures. Scout, Rover and Abigail were well cared for and happy when we returned. I would highly recommend Brian’s services and plan to use him again when for our next trip!
