About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly love caring for them! I currently have a one-year-old chocolate lab named Maple, so I’m very experienced with energetic young pups, routines, walks, playtime, and basic training. 🐾 I treat every pet like my own and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away! 😊 Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I’m currently not working, so I have a very open and flexible schedule! Please let me know what you need and I can make it work! I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for pets in both my home and my client’s home.I have a puppy myself named Maple who is 1 years old and loves to play! I have a fenced-in yard with plenty of space for playtime and exercise, and I always stick to each pet’s routine with feeding, walks, potty breaks, and lots of attention!
About: I have had two dogs since I was in 5th grade. I now own two dogs myself, and love them unconditionally. They are my babies! I am constantly making sure my puppies get what they need! Exercise, play time, training, and cuddling. I take my dogs out 7 times a day. I have a fences in area for dog to run around in. I do live in an apartment complex, but have more than enough space for a fur baby.

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was in middle school. I’ve cared for several dogs at once and have loved on dogs from ages 2 to 12 years old (plus my own dogs from their first til their last days on earth). I love learning about each pup’s personality and quirks. They’re each so special I’m currently working full time but have availability during the day for check-ins. I also am available in the evenings and on the weekends. I currently do not have space to host pets in my home, but I plan to care for client’s pets the same way I care for my own. I give lots of cuddles, playtime, and attention to the pups I care for (adjusting accordingly for the personality of the dog). I own a German Shepherd, so I’m very accustomed to large dog breeds that require a lot of love and attention.
About: I have fallen in love with every kitten whom I've ever met, and I would love to add yours to that list. Whether your baby likes to play or prefers to lounge in the sunlight and enjoy royalty status, I have the perfect most loving home for them to visit. I am located in the heart of Kingwood and have a medium apartment with plenty of space for your kitty to roam around, sunlight for basking, and wood panel floors for a worry free stay. I have a convenient hybrid work schedule allowing me to be at home an extra day out of the week (Friday), and for Monday through Thursday I work downtown typical hours, allowing me to be home around 6:30ish. This leaves me plenty of time in the evenings and all weekend to spend some quality time with your baby, outside of just seeing to basic needs. On office days I can also check in on my fluffy house guests from my pet cams and see how they’re enjoying their stay. For most days I should be able to meet internal clock meal times to a T, ensuring consistency and peace of mind for your kitty. I do not currently have a cat of my own, so if your baby prefers not being looked after with other furry friends, they'll have nothing to worry about. I have plenty of space and window-cast sunlight beams for any cat to feel at home and comfortable. It is just myself and my son at home, so there is plenty of attention available to love and dote on your baby. I have space for any accommodations needed, such as litter boxes and/or larger toys or scratching posts. For those cool cats who enjoy outdoor walks and some fresh air, I have the Town Center park practically right outside my front door and would love to go enjoy a nice walk with them.

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated dog lover with experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pup is energetic, shy, playful, or needs a little extra patience, I provide attentive, reliable care tailored to their individual needs. I have two German Shepherds of my own, so I’m very comfortable handling large, active, and intelligent breeds.

I’m currently working and attending school on weekdays. I’m available all weekend for walks, drop-in visits, and pet care. My weekends are much more flexible, allowing me to dedicate extra time for longer visits, house sitting, and quality time with your pets. I believe every pet deserves personalized care based on their unique routine, personality, and needs. Before each booking, I take the time to learn about their schedule, feeding routine, exercise needs, favorite activities, and any special instructions so I can keep their routine as consistent as possible. In my client’s home, I make sure pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment by providing plenty of attention, playtime, walks (for dogs), fresh food and water, potty breaks, litter box cleaning (for cats), and lots of love. I also keep pet parents updated with photos and messages so they know their furry family member is happy and well cared for. My goal is to provide a safe, calm, and loving experience while treating every pet and home with the same respect and care I would expect for my own.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Highlands choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
