“Megan has been a wonderful auntie to our new puppy! She comes to our home for about four hours each day and we feel completely confident leaving our pup in her care. She makes sure our girl is fed, taken outside for potty breaks multiple times, and cared for with lots of love. Our experience has been excellent, and we’re so grateful for her help”
“This was my third time booking with Ericka, and just like the previous she was great. Ericka was patient, accommodating, and easy to work with when I was having issues with my home keys.”
“I cannot recommend Nimsi highly enough! From the very beginning, she was professional, reliable, and incredibly caring with my cat. While I was away, she consistently provided updates, photos, and detailed notes that gave me complete peace of mind. It was clear she genuinely cared about my pet's well-being and wasn't just stopping by to complete a task. What truly stood out was how she went above and beyond. She paid attention to the little details, made sure everything was taken care of, and treated my cat with the same kindness and affection I would have. Coming home to a happy, relaxed pet and a well-cared-for home made all the difference. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, and genuinely compassionate, I would absolutely book with her again without hesitation. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my furry family member! Maraming salamat po sa inyong kabutihan at pag-aalaga. Talagang pinahahalagahan ko ang lahat ng inyong ginawa. Nawa'y pagpalain kayo palagi! ❤️”
About: I have been taking care of dogs for almost 10 years now. During that time I have gained experience with older dogs, diabetic dogs, puppies and everything in between. I currently own a rescue dog who I have been doing high level obedience with. We participate in dogs sport like rally obedience, fetch, fastCAT, barn hunt, lure coursing and most recently scent work. When I come to take care of your dog I will treat them as if they were my own with lots of love. I want to make you feel comfortable about leaving your dog knowing someone responsible is going to take care of them. I have a high energy dog. His care involves daily walks, and lots of training including scent work, learning new tricks or building up muscle and rear end awareness. My favorite activity is walking and training dogs. I will care for your dog with love and kindness. If you give my specifics of how you like your dog handled I am more than happy to follow that. I understand each dog is different and unique which means that I adjust accordingly.
“Meeting with Bailey and Minnie Pearl went off without a hitch. She was so excited to meet Bailey and to share her favorite toys. As for me, it was instant trust, and I couldn’t be happier with Bailey. They played together and even took a brief walk while still learning the leash. Bailey was sweet and caring and has a positive energy and enthusiasm. I highly recommend her for your pet!”
“Dawn was incredibly attentive and stepped in to help us with a last-minute plans. She was reliable, caring, and made the whole process stress-free. I would highly recommend her for any dog sitting needs.”
“Mel was seriously so amazing in taking care of my kitties Orca & Ellie. We are so grateful! Lots of attention to detail and that in itself translates to being so caring and loving to my babies. Thank you SO much!! We appreciate you!”
About: I have had a dog since I was five, giving me many years of experience taking care of and cleaning up after a dog. I have also had many friends and neighbors with dogs, and I always love getting to spend time with their pets! I have trained my dog as well as a couple of other puppies to do some tricks. I have also had experience with administering different kinds of medication to my dog, such as eye drops, oral medications, or tick meds. I am currently in school, but I can work in walks and drop-in visits to help you care for your pups! I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I am willing to travel to you and take your dog out for a walk and playtime, or feed them. I am also willing to administer medications to them if necessary and care for senior dogs. Overall, I want to provide your dogs a good time!
About: Hi, I moved out here for my job leaving my 2 dogs at home. I need new furry friends to take my attention away from me🧡 I love taking dogs out for walk, play tags with them, and basically just sit there and enjoy being their company. I am usually pretty flexible on any weekends (Day/Night) Weekdays are negotiable upon request, I try to work around client's schedule most of the times I will keep eyes on the furry friends. Main focus is to feed the pets, take them out for a walk to destress then, go on potty breaks in between. Play with them, get them well rested for when their owners come back.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I got my first cat at 9 years old. I adore the companionship and love animals give. Some of my best memories are centered around a fur baby and I’d love to make some memories with yours! I’m currently working full time but am able to check on during my lunch break and after work. My schedule on the weekends is very flexible and I’m typically available all day. Your pet will be my top priority when I am with them. I care for orher people's pets the same as I do mine because animals deserve love and safety. I will always listen to your instructions but I would love to give them treats, extra hugs, playtime and walks. I don’t mind changing litter boxes and I will always make sure their living area is kept clean and that they have enough food and water.
“She was flexible with my schedule and able to come at odd hours that I needed since I work evenings! She was great with the pups- played with them safely, fed them and sent detailed reports! Definitely going to book again!”

About: I grew up on a farm caring for a variety of animals. I currently have 3 dogs and 2 cats of my own as well as a tortoise and lots of fish! I have experience pet sitting for family and friends and neighbors. I am able to care for babies as well as seniors. I'm not certified but I've trained my own pets along with my family's pets. I am currently a grad student and work part-time, I am available to work all day Monday, mornings before 9am Tuesday-Friday and evenings after 4:30pm. Sometimes my school schedule may change but I'm always going to communicate changes to my schedule! Weekends are available if needed. I have a system with my babies, they eat twice a day in the morning and evening. I usually let them run outback and they play with the dogs on either side of my house. One cat likes to go outside occasionally, but otherwise they stay with me and I'll play with them while I do schoolwork or relax. I love taking my dogs on walks and playing with them as well.
About: Very active individual who loves to walk, run, and care for any type of pet. I have experience in dog boarding and also offer pick up / drop off within 15mile radius. I work a 9-5 so dog sitting any day of the week is not an issue! I will take care of your fur baby like one of my own. I have a fenced backyard and camera monitoring too! There are stairs but I do have a gate to avoid pets from going upstairs and my room is downstairs so it works out perfect!

Luis was excellent! He took extra steps to make sure my boys were comfortable when there was fireworks going outside when he didn’t have to. Luis was professional and my boys seemed to really like him. I would 100% recommend him to anyone in need of his services!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Kirby stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Kirby 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 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Kirby with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
