About: I have dogsat for around 3 years now both small dogs like mine and big australian shepards. I care for children as well. 💗 💗 I attend class 10-2 pm. So that gives me plenty of time for morning restroom breaks & check-ins, and im free afterwards (unless im babysitting) I would make sure to not disturb their peace but also make them feel love and give them all the necessary attention they may need.

I would highly recommend Michelle. Michelle took care of both of my dogs over the weekend, and she did an excellent job. They were happy and well cared for when I returned.

About: I’ve been passionate about animals since I was 5 years old. Rescued/Raised/Fostered 3 litters of kittens along with a few litters of foster puppies within the past 6 years. Also have 3 years of professional boarding experience & animal behavioral skills along with volunteering for the SPCA of Dallas! Currently work 6am-2:30pm full timeMonday-Friday so I can be available for evenings & weekends! My days off are Saturday & Sundays for pet sitting if needed. I’m also off on major holidays as well. I have a 4 bedroom 3 bathroom Single Home with a friendly, playful dog ready to keep your dogs company. I also have 4 indoor cats who are very sweet but like to stay out of the dogs away. I don’t have a fenced in yard, but live in the country so they have plenty of room to roam. I currently work 6am-2:30pm Monday-Fridays & have weekends off. So with that being said, I’d be a great fit for both boarding & sitting for your fur babies! Well though I don’t have a fenced in yard at the moment. I do live out in the country where they’ll have plenty of land to run around & play as they please. With new pets I normally stay outside with them in caution of assuring they don’t run off & I keep my pets inside to relax & sleep.

About: I have a gentle and loving spirit. I accept all animals into my world. The more the better! I have a lot of love to give. I work part time so I have plenty of extra time to spend with all the pets. I love being outside and going for walks and spending time with animals as much as I can. Whenever I'm with any pets, they have my full attention and care. I'm happy to sit with pets as long as needed and give them the love and care.

Leonard, TX, 75452

About: My mission is to give you peace of mind by making sure your animals feel safe and are loved and well cared for. I’ve always had a love for animals and a passion for caring for them. I have been a pet parent for the past 10 years and have been a part-time pet sitter for friends and family during that time. I have changed careers and am now a full-time pet sitter. I also volunteered at two animal shelters for 5 years. I offer personalized care for your pets based on their needs and routines—whether they’re energetic pups who love to play fetch, or more chill kitties who just need a lap to nap on, I’m happy to accommodate. What makes me stand out? I’m patient, attentive, and truly enjoy spending time with animals. I’ll send you regular updates, so you never have to worry, and I’m happy to follow any special instructions to ensure your pet feels right at home. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy for your pet and I take that responsibility seriously. I am a full-time pet sitter, so I have lots of time to devote to your fur babies. I am available for drop-ins, overnight visits and boarding all throughout the week. I have a fenced in yard with pet turf for your fur babies to run and play. I treat your dogs as if they were my own, providing lots of love and attention. The dogs have free roam of the house including my bed for lots of cuddling.

Christopher was so attentive to my special needs dog. My dog felt comfortable and safe with him. He made me feel safe as well, leaving my babies in his care. That says more than you know. I absolutely adore Cristopher and highly recommend him.

Olivia did a great job looking after our dog and two cats, who are all a little bit stubborn and not the easiest to take care of. She was reliable and sent us regular updates while we were away. :)

Tom is a gem and we were lucky to find him after our relocation to East Texas. We left our home knowing that our babies were in good hands. Tom was respectful of our property and we were very comfortable being away. It was a fantastic experience.

Amy was a great sitter for our Dixie girl. She sent pictures and communicated very well. She also watered our plans and left our home perfectly clean. We extended our time away by a day at the last minute and Amy was willing to stay and accommodate our plans. We look forward to having her again!

About: I’ve cared for dogs for several years through neighbors and repeat pet-sitting clients for a year. I’m good with feeding routines, walks, crate training, basic medications, and handling multiple dogs. I focus on keeping them safe, calm, and on their normal routine while you’re away. I go to school online & have a flexible schedule most days. I work Tuesdays and Thursdays from 7am–5pm, but I’m available mornings, evenings, weekends, and for overnight care. I’ll graduate with my associate degree in about six months, which will make my availability even more open!! I prioritize safety, structure, and calm environments in both my home and your home. I follow feeding schedules, routines, and any special instructions closely!! I always focus on reducing stress, building trust, and keeping pets comfortable while you’re away.

About: I’ve grown up on a farm & helped raise dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, cows, ducks, & hamsters! I have a love for all animals :) I am a law student, so when I’m not in class, I can drop in to care for your pet! I’m also available anytime on weekends! I have a fenced yard for your fur baby to play in. I also have a male (neutered) dog who just turned two. He’s very friendly and trained! I have a large crate if your pet needs to be crated for any reason, otherwise they are welcome to snuggle on my couch or bed with me!!

Morgan was a lifesaver and great! We were so worried about coverage and one pup. She put our anxiety to ease. She connected so well with the pups and gave updates via video and text. Would highly recommend her and will definitely continue hiring her for future needs!

Tegan was great with our 3 dogs. She was very attentive and accommodating to their needs and schedules. She went above and beyond while caring for them. She was great with updates and pictures while we were gone. She was prompt to reply and answered all questions. I will definitely be booking with Tegan again when needed.

About: I used to take care and breed dogs with my family when I was younger. Then I began watching friends and families dogs as I got older. I love all animals but especially dogs. I am a junior here at Oklahoma State studying to become a veterinarian. I also have two dogs of my own. Snoopy is a bernidoodle and Mocha is a mutt. They are both rescue dogs. I have two dogs of my own as previously mentioned and I am in college. However, my dogs and I go to the park at least once a day and we go on walks in the morning. In between classes I come home to let them potty and they free roam with feed and water when I am gone. My dogs get baths once or twice a week. They free roam with food and eat when they please. They have plenty of toys to play with and I have two crates here in case I need to crate them.

Kayli was absolutely wonderful with our dogs, Violet and Orion, during her 5-day stay. Since this was our first time using Rover and having an in-home pet sitter, we were naturally a little nervous — especially because both dogs can be shy at first. Violet is a Great Dane/pitbull mix with a big personality once she’s comfortable, and Orion is an elderly Black Lab/pitbull mix who is calm and quiet. Kayli was incredibly patient with them, and once they warmed up to her, they clearly adored her. She sent thoughtful updates and photos 3 times a day, which gave us so much peace of mind and truly allowed us to relax and enjoy our vacation without worrying about our pets. Kayli did an amazing job caring for both of their very different personalities and needs. We also came home to a perfectly tidy house, exactly as we left it. We would absolutely book with Kayli again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter.

About: Hi! My name is Jordy, and caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I grew up with family dogs and have years of experience pet sitting and house sitting for families, often caring for their pets for week-long stays while they travel. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m comfortable following specific feeding schedules, administering medications, maintaining routines, and providing individualized care based on your pet’s needs. I also have personal experience giving medication to my own dog and understand the importance of consistency and attention to detail. In addition to pet sitting, I volunteered weekly at an animal shelter, where I gained experience working with animals of varying temperaments and needs. This taught me how to build trust with animals, recognize their comfort levels, and provide patient, compassionate care. When I’m caring for your pets, my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with both your pets and your home, and I treat each one with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and am used to building my schedule around their needs. Whether that means feeding, walks, playtime, administering medication, or simply providing companionship, I make sure pets receive the attention and consistency they deserve. Having cared for my own dogs as well as regularly pet and house sat for families during week-long trips, I understand the importance of maintaining routines so pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walk routines, medication instructions, and any other specific care requests to help pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection based on their individual personality and needs. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and well cared for. I treat every home with respect and leave it just as I found it. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners by creating a safe, loving, and reliable environment while they are apart.

Durant, OK, 74701

About: For as long as I can remember, I’ve absolutely loved dogs and had a passion for their care. I’m currently double majoring in Marketing and Management at Oklahoma State University with the intention of one day owning my own boarding and training facility. I’ve always been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family and have loved expanding my experience caring for pets throughout my college town. I grew up on a ranch where I was able to take in and foster many strays. I also have volunteer experience with an international heeler rescue, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all backgrounds, temperaments, and needs. Additionally, I have a French Bulldog with special medical and dietary needs, giving me experience with medications, injections, breathing treatments, and specialized care. I offer attentive, hands-on care focused on your dog’s happiness, enrichment, and comfort while you’re away. For in house care, I have a fenced yard with 18 acres for dogs to safely play and explore, and my dogs can easily be separated if needed. I also offer basic grooming services and have my own supplies, including baths, brushing, deshedding, ear cleaning, and nail trims if tolerated. However, I do not offer shaving or haircut/trimming services. Please feel free to share anything important about your pet so I can provide the best care possible. Special-needs dogs are always welcome! I’m currently unemployed while being home for the summer, so I’m super open! I already have a routine of my own with my dogs, so adding in another is no problem at all! I have a fenced in yard with 18 acres for your dog to run around as much (or as little) as their heart desires! I have other dogs, but they’re extremely unproblematic and can be entirely separated without issue if your dog has specific needs. For in home care, I’m dedicated to your dogs enrichment and fulfillment. Nobody hires a sitter to just sit around and make sure your dog doesn’t burn the house down, you can expect me to be extremely engaged! I absolutely love dogs and am passionate about their enrichment and their fulfillment. I will do my absolute best to make sure your dog is the happiest they can be!

McKinney, TX, 75071

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have always relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets, as well as provide plenty of love and attention. At home, I’ve cared for my own pets daily ensuring they’re happy, healthy, and well groomed. I also volunteer with the SMU feral cat community, helping feed, monitor, and care for stray cats on campus. My experience spans from puppies and kittens to senior pets, and I’m comfortable with all temperaments and sizes. Schedule: I’m currently working part time and have a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of time to care for cats throughout the day. I regularly help care for SMU’s feral cat community, so I’m used to feeding, socializing, and checking on cats at different times. I’m available for visits and drop ins most weekdays after 2 PM and weekends all day. I prioritize a safe, calm, and clean environment for every pet and always follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, and any specific care instructions. I make sure spaces are secure, remove hazards, and monitor pets for any changes in behavior. I currently have a puppy (a bichonpoo) and understand the importance of both love and structure. My motto is “life is too short let them sleep on the bed,” but I also believe discipline is key in shaping well behaved dogs. I’m happy to bring my puppy along for companionship if approved, but I always ask first since I respect that every pet and owner has different boundaries.
