About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is truly my passion. I have been actively involved in the rescue community for over 10 years and have extensive experience working with animals of all ages, personalities, and needs. I hold a degree in Animal Science and have gained hands-on experience working at a local animal shelter as well as as a pet care technician in a pet store. These experiences have given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, health, and proper care. I am able to care for cats and am very knowledgeable about their unique needs and personalities. I am also able to board dogs, provided they are friendly with cats and children. Since I work from home full-time, your pets will receive plenty of supervision, attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, medication administration, or simply a calm and loving environment, I am committed to providing the same level of care and compassion that I would give my own animals. My goal is to ensure both you and your pet feel comfortable, confident, and at ease while you’re apart. I work from home full time so I will be on YOUR pets schedule. I do have small children but they have been taught how to be around animals appropriately. They love to play with the animals but will never be unattended with them. I will provide whatever needs YOUR pet needs. They are all different and have different needs and schedules. I allow free roaming. Pets on furniture. Pets sleeping in the bed. Whatever your baby is most comfortable with is what they will get here.
About: With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of my own, I've developed a deep understanding of the consistency and attention pets require at every life stage. I have also worked in a shelter environment, where I was frequently relied upon to calm anxious animals and build trust with dogs that were more difficult to reach. This experience is complemented by five years of dog walking and pet sitting, giving me a well-rounded ability to assess an animal's comfort level and provide attentive, reliable care. I approach every pet with the same level of professionalism, patience, and genuine care I bring to my own. I currently have a flexible, open schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to your pet. I'm available for boarding any day of the week, along with walks, drop-ins, and playtime throughout the day. I try to keep a consistent routine so your pet always knows what to expect, and I can work around whatever timing works best for you. Whether I'm caring for a pet in my home or yours, I prioritize a calm, safe, and comfortable environment at all times. In my own home, pets have a secure, pet-proofed space to relax and play, with constant supervision — no unsupervised outdoor time and careful introductions to any other animals. In a pet owner's home, I respect their existing routine, keep their space clean and secure, and make sure doors and gates stay closed. I always stay alert to each pet's comfort level and adjust my approach to help them feel safe and at ease.
About: i stay at home, so i have all the time and attention to give your fur babies! I love all animals and have a yorkie. I can work and take care any day at any time for boarding. I am a stay at home mom in katy with an infant. I will feed and water, and take for walks i will also send updates with pictures and videos as much as you want me too.
About: I have cared for and loved animals my whole life including dogs, cats, hamsters, rabbits, rats, reptiles, amphibians, and even squirrels! I have 6 years of experience of professional pet sitting and each pet is treated like my own. Even though I live in an apartment, my heeler/pointer rescue pup enjoys many outdoor adventures with me, including long walks, hiking, socializing with dog friends, and enrichment exercises. I am currently a stay at home mom. My schedule is very flexible as long as the little one can tag along for the ride! Life is too short to not cuddle on the couch with your pup! All my guests are allowed on the living room furniture. My kitties have first dibs of the bed at night but your pet will either have free range of the living room or in their crate if they are crate trained. I want to make their stay as comfortable as possible.

“Alissa took great care of Shiner and sent picture and updates during his playdate. She was quick to respond to any questions. Shiner was worn out from playing all day. I highly recommend and will use her again.”
About: I have been a dog owner for 28 years. I have a 9 year old who has the biggest heart for animals. We dog sit regularly and have been for the past 7 years. We will accommodate however and whatever you and your pup need. We regularly dog sit rescues, so we are used to “imperfect” and “hard to manage”. They tend to be our biggest love bugs. We also have experience in multiple dog stays (from the same home - not unknown dogs together), elderly dogs or dogs that require medical needs from us during their stay. Such as shots, medication, etc… We love to go on adventures and play outside. I send daily pictures and updates. You can trust me when I say your dog will be oh so loved. A home away from home. Let us be your best friends, new best friend! I’m a stay-at-home mom, so my schedule gives me plenty of flexibility and allows me to be home throughout the day. The dogs are always welcome on our adventures with us. I do not watch any other animal they are not used to, at the same time. We want them safe and comfortable in our home. We are a dog loving family. Between our 9 and 11 year old, the dogs will get out so much energy out and receive so much love!
About: I have been caring for animals all my life, and consider myself a true animal lover. I have cared for many dogs and pets for my neighbors and friends and they have relied on me to provide them with a comfortable and loving environment. I delight myself in providing great service and lots of love to your fur babies. I work from home so I am available to watch your babies through the day and make sure that they are well cared for, and given the attention they need to feel comfortable while you are away. We have a gated property where your pups can run around and let off some energy, and inside we have a perfectly conditioned "pup spa room" where they can relax and enjoy their rest, complete with kennels if you need them to be kenneled for naps if they need them. If not , there are plenty of blankets and pillows for them to relax and unwind.
“My dog thinks going to see Lori is like going on vacation. She loves the energy of the household and visiting with other dogs. I feel such gratitude that my dog is so well taken care of...she literally bolts out of the car to see Lori!”
“Amy was wonderful and made us feel that our fur baby girl was going to be at home. She sent updates often . We loved her place and the fact that boarding is a family thing. We will definitely go back to her.”
About: My name is Ashley. I love all animals. And I’d love to care for yours. I do have animals of my own but they won’t be around yours they will all go out separately and be in the house separately but I promise to provide the best service of care. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! If you can provide a bed or crate for your pet. Food and bowls. Toys and any other items your pet may need and I will take care of the rest! If you feel the need to give me a list of things they need throughout the day or however long they will be staying that will be helpful as well, thanks! I also train pets!
About: I love the outdoors, cardio and playing with dogs. I have been taking care of animals since I was a kid. I am reliable and trust worthy. I have a pretty open schedule. Monday - Friday. I have flexible hrs. to work around most schedule needs you may have. I accept same day bookings I currently have a Great Pyrenees who is 7 years old. He weighs over 100 lbs. So I am capable of taking care of larger dogs.
“Heather was great and super accommodating when we decided we wanted to board our little guy! Accepted super fast last minute booking and took really good care of my angel! 10/10!”
About: Hi there! I’m Kaleigh, a lifelong animal lover with 20 of experience caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I’m also a nurse—which means safety, attentiveness, and calm under pressure are second nature to me. I’ve rescued all of my pets literally from the street, so helping them heal both physically and emotionally has taught me patience, empathy, and how to meet each animal where they are. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets in all stages of life—from bottle-feeding 3-week-old puppies to providing round-the-clock comfort and medication for beloved senior dogs in their final days. I’ve trained my own animals, managed special diets, and navigated unique quirks. My goal is to keep everyone happy, healthy, and stress-free💛 I love all the animals like my own because it is exactly how I would want my pets to be treated! I'm currently working as a registered nurse, but on my days off, I'm home with my three dogs and cat 🐾 My schedule fluctuates, so please get in touch about a plan, but I can also take same-day requests pending the day. If you’re looking for doggy daycare or overnight stays, my home features a large, fully fenced backyard with plenty of shade—perfect for safe play and fresh air. Dogs have access to indoor and outdoor spaces throughout the day and are never left alone for more than 2–3 hours at a time. I’m very mindful of weather conditions, so dogs are never left outside in the heat, but we do have a doggie pool and sprinklers if they like water play ☀️ My home is equipped with kennels, gates, cozy blankets, and a variety of toys to keep your pet comfortable and entertained. For drop-in visits, just let me know your pet’s preferences! I usually walk my dogs for at least 30 minutes daily, and I plan to give your furry friend the same care unless you specify otherwise. I’m also happy to feed and administer medications as needed. Feel free to reach out and share your pet’s needs—I’m happy to accommodate and provide the care your pet deserves!
“I was very pleased with Kristina and this visit she kept me informed throughout the entire process and sent videoed and pictures. Fitz looked extremely happy and he received a good report. I will definitely use her in the future. Thank you for everything especially accepting him at such a late notice.”
About: I've been around dogs my entire life and have experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I have a goofy pitbull named Steel that is my pride and joy and loves being around other dogs. I work from home so I have plenty of flexibility to play with your pups, let them snore under my desk as I work or even go for a walk on my breaks. All sizes and breeds welcome! Plenty of experience with bully breeds. I am a twin mom so your dog must be comfortable with small children in the house that may throw a few toys over their playpen to share. I'm currently working from home M-F and have plenty of time to play with your pups! If I need to make a quick grocery store run it's right around the corner and usually takes 40min tops. Saturday mornings we usually take the kids to swim but are only gone for 3hrs. I have a fenced in yard. Plenty of treats and water bowls. A safe quiet neighborhood for walks to get our steps in. I also love to take pictures so I'll be sure to keep you updated.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Karen commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in TX ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 1,174 sitters in Karen, 90% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
