“Amber was a great sitter for our fur baby Mona. Great communication and Amber sent lots of pictures where Mona was just having the time of her life. Mona was well taken care of and gave us peace of mind. We will definitely be booking with Amber again for future sitter needs.”
“I am so amazed how Sunny has quickly taken to Lilia. It was his second time staying with Lilia and he look like he was at home and comfortable. I'm so excited to see how Sunny gravitates to Lilia. I see how he melts in her arms. Thanks Lilia for taking good care of my little man. Oh, and he just loves his playmate, Paisley! See you soon!”
“Sarah was so great with Blue! She was so sweet, spent a lot of time with him, making sure he had walks, play and everything he needed. It was obviously that he loved her and his stay at her house. Her communication was clear and frequent - overall we had a great experience”
“I really appreciated Adriana’s daily pictures. Pippy looked happy in the pics and when I went to pick him up. I hope Adriana is available for the next time I need a pet sitter! Thank you.”
“Patches was wonderful with my pup! They were communicative, sent plenty of updates, and made sure she felt right at home. I appreciated the care and attention they gave throughout the stay.”
“Awesome pet sitters and thank you for keeping me informed what’s going on while I was gone. I would definitely use this service again and now I see how my dogs really love you guys. May God bless and continue for you to prosper”
“Highly recommend Cheyanne! She really loved and cuddled with Rosie the whole visit. She took any fear I had about dog sitting away. She also texted pictures and up to date details on how she was doing. Will use her again if in the area!”
“Kelly was great with my dog Opal. She was very communicative and sent me pictures of her every day while I was on my trip which gave me such a peace of mind. I’m always appreciative when I can see what my lil pup is up to. She loves to sunbathe and Kelly had a very nice yard that she could run around and play in the sun. She was very attentive and took great care of her.”
“Aimee is great as always! Coda enjoyed his stay with her and loved the apples and banana treats that he was given 😊 Thank you Aimee for giving him a great weekend!”
“Denise is truly a lifesaver! I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for my Doxiepoo, Toby, especially for our last-minute 3-day, 2-night booking. From the moment we arrived, Denise was incredibly welcoming and professional. She walked me through her routine and handled the introductions between Toby and the other dogs perfectly, making drop-off and pick-up an absolute breeze. Throughout Toby's stay, Denise was a fantastic communicator, sending lots of wonderful photo updates that showed how much fun he was having. Toby can be a little escape artist, but Denise kept a close eye on him and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such safe hands. When I picked him up, Toby was so happy and had clearly bonded with both Denise and the other dogs. I highly recommend Denise and will definitely be booking with her again. She is a natural with dogs and a true gem!”
“Jillian and Clayton were amazing for our dog’s first stay with them! They sent great photo updates, and our dog made new friends at their place. We felt totally at ease and will definitely book again!”
“Watson had a wonderful stay and had fun playing with the the other pups under Erika's care. Erika sent us pictures each day to show how much fun Watson was having. Thank you, Erika!”
“Alison has always been soo amazing while taking care of my pup!! She treats my Harry like he were her own, and I know he LOVES staying with her and her family!!!! Harry practically jumps out of the car the second we pull in to her neighborhood... definitely trust her 1000%!!!”
“Madison was so great with our pup and so accommodating to our pickup/drop off times. She made sure Kai was comfortable and her dog Murphy is so sweet and got along with her so well. Would definitely rebook with her again!”
About: Hi, I'm austin-native Amanda! I've had dogs my entire life and have been the primary caregiver for my own dog, Bug, since he was a puppy. He's now 8 years old, so I've experienced every stage of a dog's life from energetic puppy days to establishing routines and adapting to changing needs as they get older. I currently have a flexible schedule and spend most of my day at home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and companionship. Whether your dog enjoys playing, exploring on walks, or simply relaxing, I'm happy to tailor their care to what makes them happiest. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure, shaded fenced dog park at my apartment for safe outdoor time, and during the Texas summer I plan activities around the heat with shorter walks, shade, water breaks, and indoor play when needed. I know how much our pets mean to us because I feel the same way about Bug. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they're in caring, dependable hands. I currently have a very flexible schedule and spend most of my day at home, so I have plenty of time to provide attentive care, walks, playtime, and potty breaks. My own dog, Bug, keeps me on a consistent routine, and I enjoy getting outside for walks and making sure dogs get the attention and exercise they need. I'm available for daytime care, walks, drop-in visits, and can often accommodate evenings and weekends with advance notice. I have a secure, fenced dog park at my apartment with plenty of shade, so dogs have a safe place to go outside without spending too much time on hot pavement during the Texas summer. There's also plenty of space and toys to play with in my nice airconditioned apartment. :) I know every dog has different routines and needs, so I'm happy to follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, crating, or any other care preferences. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I'll treat them with the same attention and care I give my own dog, Bug.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Garfield home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Garfield.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Garfield sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in TX ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
