I’ll ensure they receive ample exercise, affection, and attention throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, playtime in the afternoon, or cozy evenings together, I make sure every pet feels loved and well-cared for. In my home they’ll enjoy a safe and cozy environment. Its important your pet feels comfortable and loved, following their routine closely, whether it’s feeding, walks, or just companionship
“For the first time in along time I was able to go outta town and relax knowing my dogs were going to be taken care of the way I wanted. Thank you so much Tamara for all the love you gave to my animals! I will be using again ❤️”
“Taylor did a great job of keeping us updated while checking in on our pups. We have a couple of nervous nellys & they loved her. We enjoyed getting so many pictures & the detailed updates.”

About: Needing a pet sitter? Well, you found her! I'm putting my self out there and offering services to the residents of Peaster/Poolville. I have worked 10+ years at a local animal emergency hospital. If your pet needs medications or is a diabetic, you might already know how hard it can be to find a boarding facility (without having to pay for medical boarding). My family and I have lived in Peaster for 13 years now and we love our community. Availability Schedule Monday through Friday, I work from 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM. I am available for lunchtime drop-in visits or walks around 12:00 PM or 1:00 PM, depending on location and scheduling. I am off the majority of weekends, so weekend availability may be more flexible. Please feel free to reach out to confirm availability for weekend visits or special requests. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important it is for animals to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special routines your pet is used to. I take my time getting to know each pet’s personality and comfort level. Whether your pet is energetic and loves attention or shy and needs a gentle approach, I adjust my care to fit their needs. I also make sure their environment stays clean, safe, and stress-free by checking food and water, cleaning up after them, and keeping their space tidy. With my veterinary field experience, I am comfortable caring for pets with medical needs, giving medications, and watching for any changes in behavior, appetite, or overall health. I will always communicate with you and provide updates so you can feel confident that your pet is being well cared for while you are away.
About: My husband Rusty and I have grown up with dogs our whole life! We have two dogs of my own now who are our ENTIRE world! We have met amazing dog sitters on rover that have helped our family out tremendously and we would love to do that for others as well! We have done plenty of dog sitting, walking, etc. with friends fur babies and it is always so much fun to meet other dogs and get to know their little personalities! I am currently taking a break from nursing contracts right now. I have a lot of flexibility. Please reach out as I’d love to meet your fur baby and help out in ANY way I can! My dogs and I love to go on long walks outside and after we are nice and tired come inside and cuddle or play some more! I know that it can be a little bit nerve racking to trust others with your fur babies- we are the same way! Our goal is to make you feel totally comfortable letting us care for your animals and caring for them exactly how you would want! :) We would also be open to having a play date with our two dogs too if that is something you would want and be comfortable with. Our dogs get along with all dogs and cats and love to play!
About: I specialize in high-energy dogs and understand the structure and exercise they need. I’ve owned and cared for Belgian Malinois, German Shepherd, and Labrador Retriever, so I’m confident with strong, active breeds. But I’m secretly a big fan of Chihuahuas too I grew up with several so pups of all sizes are welcome. 🐾 I always have a very early morning which starts with either a run with my good boy Pete or we throw the ball so he can get some activity before I leave for work at 7:30 and when I get off usually around 4:30 we usually spend half a hour going over tricks or just plain tomfoolery with the other dogs A big fenced 50 acre wooded property with doggie doors on every entrance so the gang is free to move freely in a out when needed
About: My name is Julia and I grew up on a ranch in Texas, having dogs my entire life. I love getting outside and playing with my dogs, taking them on hikes, runs, and swimming at the lake.

Taking care of a dog requires love, attention and patience- traits I've learned from interacting with my different dogs personalities. I have no problem playing with your dog for hours!

I can run with your dog, practice basic tricks, or even do a photo session if you are in need of some pet photography! I work fully remotely, so my schedule allows for a lot of flexibility. I have the flexibility to easily drop by to do check ins or walks if need be. Safety is my priority when taking care of my friends pets, and I want to ensure that all care information is fully communicated before I head over.

About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life. Currently have a dog and two cats that I love to bits. I always find time to be out playing with my dog and keeping cats company when it comes to the night hours. I’m currently not working but I do have the transportation to get around for check ins on pets. I have free time on my hands at the moment so my schedule is really open to going in the morning, going in the afternoon, and going in the evening times before bedtime. I do not offer boarding in my own home, so being in the client's home I would be sure to introduce myself to the dogs, be outside while dogs are playing, and always attentive as to where an animal is within the house or backyard.

About: Hi there! I’m Stefanie — a lifelong animal lover with over 20 years of hands-on experience in dog grooming, kennel care, and pet sitting. I graduated from Texas All Breed Grooming School in 2005 and have worked with dogs of every size, breed, and personality ever since! Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs in both professional settings and my own home, including my own pack — two American Akitas, two medium mixed breeds, one sweet Shih Tzu, and three cats. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take pride in providing calm, patient, and loving care that keeps tails wagging and owners at ease. Whether your furry friend needs a companion while you’re away, a patient hand for special needs or senior pets, or just someone experienced who truly “gets” dogs and cats — I’m here to help. Since I groom part-time, my schedule is very flexible and leaves plenty of time for drop-in visits, walks, or in-home pet sitting. I’m available most weekdays and weekends, and I can easily adjust my hours to fit your pet’s routine. Whether your furry friend needs a midday potty break, company while you’re at work, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. Your pet’s comfort and safety always come first in my home. I have a separate, secure area just for guest dogs, giving them space to relax and feel at home while staying safe and stress-free. The area is kept clean, cozy, and supervised, with plenty of room for rest and play.
“I would definitely book again, Natasha sent plenty of pictures and communicated how my dog was doing. I plan on booking with her in the future for any future trips we can’t bring our dog along to. 10/10 recommend.”
“She took amazing care of our dogs for 4 days! She cleaned up after them so well and even played with them. I felt so comfortable leaving them alone for our trip because Chyler was so caring to them!! Can't wait to book again.”
“Alexandra is exactly what we needed! This was only my second time using Rover and I accidentally sent her to the wrong address(over 30 min away) 🤦🏻♀️ however she was so kind to go to our new address and take care of our babies! I could give her 5 stars on that alone, but she was so great at checking in even on our extra shy cat who hides from everyone. She even got her to come out!!! She cleaned the litter boxes more than we anticipated and was overall amazing! If you’re a beginner using Rover, Alexandra will provide all the comfort you need.”

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Garner stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
