2. Sarah J.
“Sarah is fantastic! Highly recommend her. She helped me last minute due to a family emergency. I was so thankful for her. She took such great care of my pup: sent me photos, messages, and care information. I didn’t have to worry about him or my home while I was away. Very sweet and caring, responsible, and just wonderful. Thank you Sarah!”

8. Leanne K.
“I’ve know Leanne for years and I consider her my dog and cat’s auntie. She loves and cares for them like her own and when I say that, I mean she would do almost anything for them. She treats her fur babies better than herself and that is the kind of person I trust with my own fur babies!”

I know first hand that she is extremely gentle and passionate about the well-being of pets. She loves them and believes they deserve to be cared for and will go above and beyond to ensure they receive the love and care they need. I am excited to see how her Rover experience will exemplify her expertise she posses for any and every pet. Any pet owner will be lucky to have her care for their furry friend!”

15. Vanessa B.
“Vanessa is amazing! I wholeheartedly trust my precious babies - two Maine Coons - with her. She's not just a catsitter, she's a godsend! I have to travel for work sometimes, and the only thing that makes it less stressful, for me and my cats, is leaving them in Vanessa's care. She is my go-to catsitter because I can rest assured they are in great hands. Even my anxious one is carefree with her. And I love Vanessa's funny/clever video and photo updates. She really captures their individual personalities, and that means so much that she recognizes that. Vanessa also is conscientious about getting all the info she needs to do her job well. Thank you, Vanessa!”
16. Lady T.
“Lady T did a great job with our dog Winston. Winston is strong willed and stubborn as most terriers are. Will not hesitate to have her again..”
17. Peter P.
About: Great with dogs, capable of going for long walks at any pace. Available at all times of the day. Cared for animals for 14 years. I've always loved dogs of all kinds, with one corgi fox of my own. Experience with puppies as well, with no amount of dogs being too great. I love all kinds of animals and can also take care of anything from cats to fish. Can take dogs for longer than thirty minutes if it is needed on walks. Very easy to contact, flexible rates. In this predominantly for my love of dogs and being outside. Guaranteed to always provide above satisfactory work and to always have stellar service when it comes to communication and time. I would love to care for your dogs! I work a 7-4 job Monday through Thursday on south Lamar. I am very flexible around that! I am located in south Austin, but don’t mind traveling a little! My boys kind of get the world from me. As I’m sure any owner is with there pets there is nothing out of the question when it comes to their happiness.
18. Margaret B.
About: I have owned two dogs, currently still own one small dog (she lives with my dad as an ESA currently). I have about 5+ years of experience with dogs, I have volunteered with the Austin Animal Shelter, and have been dogsitting/walking for friends & clients on Rover in my free time for a while! I’m currently a teacher in South Austin, and am looking to keep busy in between prepping for the 25-26 school year! I’ve always had a love for animals and always need a good reason to stay active I treat them like babies — anything they may ingest or attempt to ingest or get into is put up and away until they leave my residence — So please be transparent about any “bad” habits (past & present!!) so I can do my best to provide and harbor a safe environment
19. Becky R.
“Becky absolutely loves all animals and they all love her! I have a 6 month old puppy and I trust her to watch him whenever I'm away, she is caring and will do whatever necessary to provide the best care for your pet ! I definitely recommend Becky as a responsible and loving dog caregiver.”
20. Tara E.
“Tara is an exceptional individual very caring + thoughtful with my (5) fury pets. Very punctual when it comes to meeting any timelines with medications + any other miscellaneous duties that may arise for my babies. She is dedicated + very loving not only to our dogs but to our family. I know that she will be a great asset to your company as she is with our family!!! Thanks”
