About: Hi there. I am a dog mom, and have experience with all types of pets and their care. I communicate with my clients with daily update and make sure to add a few pictures. I know being away from your babies is hard, and pictures are the next best thing. I love going on adventures, and tug a war is my favorite. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. I work part time and am available to set my schedule and work around anything really. I am also off weekend. This gives me alot of freedom and flexibility to work with your schedule and your pet needs. I would keep your fur baby company while you are away. Keeping them as active as possible. Also taking details notes about rules, diet, allergies and feeding schedules.

About: Pets have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with small dogs, and over the years I've lived with and cared for cats and medium to large dogs owned by family, roommates, and neighbors. Today I own two cats and regularly watch friends' pets when they travel. I'm comfortable with pets of all sizes and I treat every pet in my care the way I'd want mine treated. I currently work from home, which means pet care fits naturally into my day rather than being squeezed in around a commute. I'm able to visit at consistent times for feedings, walks, and playtime, and I'm flexible enough to adjust visit times if a pet needs extra attention or a different routine. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their established routines and rules as closely as possible so the pet's environment stays familiar and low-stress. I always confirm entry/exit procedures, secure doors and gates behind me, and check that food, water, and litter are addressed on schedule. I treat each home with the same care and respect I'd want for my own, and I stay attentive to a pet's body language and comfort level throughout each visit, always reaching out to the owner if anything seems off.

“Ella did an amazing job house and animal sitting for me while I was on vacation! She sent lots of photos and updates every day which I appreciated. She also took care of my plants in the house while she stayed and when I got home everyone was happy and healthy! She even went above and beyond and tossed all the bedding she used in the guest room in the wash so it was one less thing I had to do when I got home. I would highly recommend her for any of your animal/house needs, she is very trustworthy and I'll be hiring her for all my future vacations!”

About: I’ve been my all of my friends favorite dog sitter for more than 10 years! They love feeling happy and safe when their pets are with me because of how much I care and love on animals. I also love sending photo updates! I am currently working part time as a real estate agent so I have plenty of time for your pups! I usually come home every couple of hours during the day and am always home in the evenings. I have a great big backyard and love playing fetch with all pups! I have a young golden retriever who is here some of the time to play with your dogs or can keep her at her other house if needed during your stay. My cat Trigger will happily spend your pups stay locked up in my sunny bedroom when I'm not home, so don't worry about her. Trigger is used to lots of fun pups coming through and will keep his distance! I am currently working as a real estate agent and can come home all throughout the day to visit with the pups. I also work from home half the time which makes the dogs very happy! :) I have a very large backyard which is rare for the downtown area, your dogs will have plenty of room to run and I love to throw a ball and play with them. If your dog is down to snuggle I am all about it! I keep a very loving home and guarantee them to feel safe and cared for.

“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Stephanie! She took such wonderful care of our two pups while we were away, sending frequent updates and the sweetest pictures that gave us total peace of mind. It was so comforting to know they were not only well cared for but truly loved while we were gone. On top of that, we came home to a spotless house. Stephanie went above and beyond in every way. We’re so grateful for her thoughtfulness, attention to detail, and genuine care. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and all-around amazing sitter!”

“My two little dogs took to Tamera right away, which rather surprised me. She has a way with doggies and they really like her. She kept me apprised of how they were doing and even sent pictures. I will definitely book Tamara again.”

“Christine has been a great sitter for my two dogs- one who can be very slow to trust sitters and she always keeps me informed with pictures and dogs are happy!”

About: My family has relied on me to to take care and watch over their dogs, whether it be playing with them, cooking for them, taking care of bath time, walks, or simply just someone to watch over them so they won't be alone. I care for my dogs like they are my own family, and I only would want to treat your precious furry friends and members of the family the same way. Im currently in between work, so im using this as a way to keep money coming in. My schedule is open 7 days week and I have a personal vehicle of my own. So if needed I can run errands and pick up any supplies your pets may need, and in case of emergency, you can count on me to bring your pet to a qualified veterinarian. Simply get with me to make the time frames you would want or need for the day of your choice. Am open to pet sitting for more than one day if needed so. And if your not comfortable with a sitter staying in your own home, im a perfectly capable to make constant check ups on your pets through the days your gone My dog is a rowdy and territorial Yorkie. But I love him all the same. A very playful dog who would bring you his toy for when he wanted playtime. My dog gets to have all the playtime he can have and enjoy long walks, while exploring new neighborhoods to mark. I give him foods he would need, along with his dry food that he has access to anytime of the day and I give him treats that are good for building up jaw strength and cleaning his teeth. While keeping his fur, and nails in check as well, once every two weeks. To ensure no grass or stickers get stuck in his hair during his walks. Overall my Yorkie, has loyalty and love for me, as I do for him. I take care of and pet sit my uncles dogs, one is a retriever border collie mix, and the other is a husky. Both dogs are females and have two completely different personalities, one has energy to play at all times of the day, while the other likes to have attention and belly rubs. I've taken care of these dogs ever since they were pups, and they have impressed on me and always love when I visit them. My uncle trust me to watch over his dogs even when gone for weeks at a time.

About: I have years of experience between animals, livestock, babies, and senior care. I breed Australian shepherds and Japanese Akitas, and currently own chickens. I do own my own house and with a decent size fenced backyard. I’m available all day of the week. If I have to step out, I have cameras all over my house and around my house. I have a fenced yard, cameras all over the outside of my house and in the inside as well. There is always someone at my house.

“Katie was so sweet and very easy to work with. I liked that she sent pictures of the animals having a good time, and asked questions of there was anything she was unsure of. I would totally book her again and am grateful to have found her! This was our very first experience with Rover and I’m excited to find something that will give us maybe some more opportunities to travel in the future. 10/10”

“Erica was amazing and took care of my baby for a whole week! She cared and loved for him so much when we were away. She sent Daily and nightly pictures of their walks, his sleep, and him just being a cuddly bear. She assured us of his safety and made sure he followed his food schedule. Our baby has a sensitive stomach and Erica was able to follow his dietary restrictions. Thank you again Erica!”

My dog gets walked and ran at least twice a day, fed twice a day with vitamins as well. She is crate trained but I always let her roam and sleep in my bed when I'm home

About: I always make sure my pet babies are well fed and clean water everyday. Cages or areas well cleaned and tidy. Organize their space well. Take the time to hold/pet each one individually one on one time with me. Its a daily,weekly,nightly routine. I have to make sure my babies are looking good, feeling good. I take my time to clean and feed and hold each pet so they know I love them dearly. I would treat a clients pet just as I would my own with love and understanding. Patient is very important when caring for any pet. I would love it as it was my own.

I am enrolled at TXST and take a couple classes through the weeks leaving plenty of free time to spend taking care of your animals! I like to keep an eye on my pets whether they are inside or out! I like to match the energy with the dogs in case they are super active or super chill!

About: Hi, I’m Nyeira! As a dedicated pet owner and animal lover, I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision. My goal is to provide the same level of care, attention, and love that I would want for my own dogs. I’ve been caring for dogs for over 8 years and currently have three dogs of my own. Two were adopted from shelters, and one was a stray I rescued while in college. Caring for pets from different backgrounds has taught me patience, consistency, and how to help animals feel safe and comfortable in new situations. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with their dogs and cats because they know I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and take their care seriously. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior companions, and I am comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I will make sure they receive personalized care and attention. I am experienced with dogs of all sizes, although I generally prefer working with dogs under 80 pounds. Communication is extremely important to me. As a pet parent myself, I know how reassuring it is to receive updates while you’re away. You can expect consistent communication, photos, and updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I currently have open availability and ask that bookings or cancellations be made at least 48 hours in advance whenever possible. I am dependable, attentive, and committed to making every pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I have a very flexible schedule and am available both weekdays and weekends, with open availability throughout the day to accommodate your pet’s needs. I am able to provide care in the form of house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, depending on what works best for you and your pet. While I do not offer boarding in my home, I am fully committed to caring for pets in their familiar environment where they feel most comfortable. I am adaptable with timing and happy to follow your preferred schedule and routine to ensure consistency and comfort for your pet. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care whenever you need it, with clear communication and dependable availability. I prioritize safety, trust, and consistency in every pet care situation. While I do not offer boarding in my own home, I provide care in the client’s home through house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks so pets can remain in a familiar and comfortable environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all provided instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication routines, exercise needs, and any specific behavioral or comfort preferences. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their routine and personality to ensure they feel safe and secure while their owner is away. I am experienced with dogs of all ages and am comfortable administering medications when needed. I also provide consistent updates, including messages and photos, so pet parents can feel confident and reassured while they are away. My goal is always to create a calm, trustworthy presence for pets—minimizing stress by maintaining their normal routine and treating their space and care instructions with respect and attentiveness.

“We had an amazing experience with our Katelyn! She took exceptional care of our pups and kept us updated with frequent messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. When one of our dogs went on a food strike, she didn't panic and she thought outside the box, found a solution that worked, and kept us informed every step of the way. It's clear she genuinely cares about the animals she watches. We came home to two happy pups and a well cared for home. We would absolutely recommend her and will definitely be booking her again!”

Liz G.

“Katharine was great! She was able to accommodate a last minute request to care for our pup after another sitter canceled last minute. Easy to communicate with and dependable. Would rebook again!”

About: I grew up in a household that was always full of pets. I've been responsible for cats, dogs, birds, gerbils, and many more! I'm experienced in caring for babies, seniors, and middle-aged animals. I can walk em', feed em', bathe em', give em' meds, and lots of cuddles! I'm in school during the week and I have a part-time job on weekends. My goal is to fit my pet-sitting jobs into my school schedule (Monday-Thursday) between classes. On Mondays and Wednesdays, I'm at school from 10:30am-3:30pm, and on Tuesdays and Thursdays I'm at school from 7:30am-3:30pm. I have open availability on Fridays. I'm currently in college student housing, so I don't have the means to host your animals at my place. I'd be more than happy to take your dogs out to play in local parks or in your own backyard.
