This was our first experience with Rover and with Halle. The ease of booking and communication was very good. While we were away, she communicated with us about how our babies were doing. When we returned home, they both seemed very happy. With no issues. Our house was clean and tidy. We will definitely be rebooking with Halle in the future. I highly recommend her and Rover.

Chelbi was a very responsible and knowledgeable sitter for my puppy. She sent pictures and kept in contact with any questions or updates. I hope she is available for any future sitting needs we may have! Thank you, Chelbi!!?

Anna did an absolutely wonderful job with our very high energy pup. We were very worried about leaving him alone for a week - and by the time we got home that worry was completely gone. Our buddy was extremely happy when we got home, and Anna didn’t even complain once. I would highly recommend Anna to anyone looking for a professional sitter who you can trust with your most loved animals. We will certainly hire her again (if she’s available)!

About: I am the proud owner of 3 little Shi Tzu's. My husband travels with his work so there are lots of time I am by myself at home. I would love to help with your fur babies needs. We are a very dependable and honest couple that is originally from Louisiana but have lived in Texas for almost 20 years. My entire life I have had animals of all kinds but mainly dogs. We have had big dogs to very small pets. I have a sister that was a assistant Vet for about 30 years and she has taught me a lot about how to safely care for their health and maintain a good diet and exercise. Love All types of Pets !!! Your pet will be able to run with ours and I take mine outside all throughout the day. If you would prefer them to be created I will provide them with any rules you would normally do at your home. I promise your pet will be loved and cared for as if they were my own.

About: I’ve had dogs all my life! I grew up taking turns potty training, walking and trick training our dogs. I also have experience bottle feeding puppies. I have partial experience caring for senior fur babies. I also have partial experience giving oral medication. I know some dogs have their own preferences for medicine taking, whether with cheese, meat or peanut butter. Just let me know what works for them and I’ll do it! We didn’t have our senior dog for very long but I am more than willing to learn what your baby needs and will do whatever it takes to make them happy and comfy! I’m excited to meet, love and care for your pup! I currently work, mostly, full time. Tuesday afternoons and Thursday mornings are my free time during the week, but I am also willing to work before or after work on the other days! Also, my Saturdays are entirely open! I unfortunately cannot offer boarding but I can come to your pet and give them the best care I can! Depending on what your pet needs I can let them out to potty in a fenced yard or I can walk them then crate them after, if called for. I can stay for as long as needed to accommodate their potty break and/or if they need play time or just some company! I will follow whatever schedule you have set up for them!

About: What sets me apart is how much I truly love spending time with animals! Whether it’s playful puppies who need some training or sweet senior pets who need a little extra TLC, I’m here to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m super reliable, always keep you updated, and make sure your pet gets plenty of love, snuggles, and fun while you’re away! Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine! I work part-time at Foster’s on the weekends and Mondays, which means I have plenty of availability during the week for pet sitting. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight care, I’m flexible and happy to work around your schedule to make sure your pet gets the love and attention they need! When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible! For overnight stays, I make sure they’re comfy, fed, walked, and of course; loved on! I keep things clean, cozy, and calm so they feel safe while you’re away. For doggy daycare, I’m all about playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s snuggles on the couch or zoomies in the yard, your pet will feel happy and cared for every step of the way!

About: Hi! I’ve been dog sitting and caring for homes for over 10 years and truly love what I do. I’m proud to have long-term families who still trust me with their pets, and I currently have more availability to take on new clients. I live in Longview and work full-time as a school counselor, but caring for animals has always been something I’ve done on the side. I’ve had the joy of watching many puppies grow into adult dogs and caring for them throughout their entire lives. I offer walks, medication administration, and can follow any special care routines your pet needs. I’m also happy to help with vet visits, grooming appointments, and anything else that makes your life easier. If you prefer in-home care, I’m very respectful of your space and can also help with light house care while you’re away. Most importantly, I will love and care for your dog like they are my own. I have a consistent routine that allows me to give your pets reliable, attentive care throughout the day. I leave for work early in the morning, so I always make sure your pets are taken out and their full morning routine is completed before I head out. If needed, I’m able to stop by midday for a potty break and quick check-in. I finish work around 3:30–4:00 PM and head straight back, where I’m available for the rest of the evening. This includes walks, dinner, playtime, and just spending quality time with your pet so they feel comfortable and cared for. I always care for pets based on their individual routines and needs, because I know how important consistency is for them. Whether I’m in your home or providing drop-in visits, I aim to keep your pet’s schedule as close to normal as possible. In your home, I follow all feeding schedules, walking routines, and any specific instructions you provide. I make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship, not just the basics. I also keep your home tidy and respected while you’re away. I’m comfortable administering medications, handling special care needs, and caring for pets of all ages, from puppies to senior dogs. I’ve had the privilege of caring for some dogs throughout their entire lives, so I understand how needs can change over time. I also provide updates and communication so you feel at ease knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. My goal is always to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet

About: Howdy fellow pet lovers. I’m Keith, and along with my daughter, Karsyn, we just launched a friendly dog service called Haywood’s Happy Hounds. I’m a husband and father of four beautiful children. I have been the owner of two Rottweilers and a Yorkie in the past, but now, we are raising an energetic, sparky Chiweenie named Krew LeBark Haywood and a friendly, playful GoldenDoodle named Reese L. Haywood alongside our children. My youngest daughter really took a liking to Krew when we got him as a wee pup, so she’s going along on this doggie journey with me. Don’t want to be in the rain? We’ll walk your GreatDane! Late starting supper? We’ll gladly walk your pupper. Need someone to puppy sit? We’ll watch your lovely, fluffy ShihTzu. Friendly dog, but no one to watch her? I’ll come sit your boxer! Whatever your doggie needs, our Daddy&Daughter tandem can provide it, indeed! Rain, sleet, snow or hail, we offer our services like the postal mail! We’ll treat your furry friends like one of our own and return them happier than when they arrived. I’m available most days and weekends for sitting. Just contact us and let us know when you’d need our friendly services. We’re looking forward to it. We have a nice sized, fenced yard, where our own dogs AND children love roaming around and playing in. I’m sure your pups will too.

Absolutely amazed by Alexis and how well she did. Very professional and had no problem watching our house even with some of the extra tasks asked of her. Ive had sitters in the past but never have I come home to house that felt cleaner than when I left. I appreciated the daily updates and behavioral observations. 10/10 will use her again

Brandi is wonderful - our dogs are a lil needy - one is high strung & constantly jumping, running & needing lots of attention & the other just had knee surgery so he has to be leash walked 4-6 times a day for rehab & potty breaks &&& both dogs take multiple meds several times a day - needless to say there is a serious chart to follow &&& Brandi never missed a beat. We feel very comfortable w Brandi in our home & caring for our beasts :-)

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the energy and presence I bring around animals. I’m naturally calm, patient, and attentive, which helps pets feel safe and comfortable pretty quickly, even if they’re shy or anxious. I’ve spent a lot of time around animals and genuinely enjoy being with them, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just sitting with them and keeping them company. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs, so I can adjust how I care for them based on their personality. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy being around animals and staying active. I structure my schedule so I have the time and flexibility to give each pet the attention and care they need. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine. Whether I’m in your home or caring for them day-to-day, I make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was about 10, I’m 21 now. My major is Pre-Veterinary because I’ve had a love for animals and dream of being a vet since I was 7. I have a cat of my own, Luna, and she’s my world. I treat her like a baby so I would love to share the same love to your fur babies! I work full-time as a manager at Walmart, and I’m a full time college student (online). I’m pretty fair and understanding with scheduling, as long as you reach out in advance. If my schedule doesn’t fit for you, I do not mind adjusting to accommodate you and your fur babies! I also don’t have an issue with last minute planning, just be mindful of scheduling issues or certain questions I asks in regards of the service you’ve requested! When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, and get plenty of exercise and attention throughout the day. I also monitor their behavior to make sure they are happy, healthy, and not feeling stressed while their owner is away. As well as in a clients home, I respect your space and specific instructions on pet care! Ensuring your pets and home’s safety is never an issue.
