“Rebecca was very compatible with my two dogs. I like that she sent me pictures and assured me they were doing fine. I will use her again anytime I need someone to come stay with my dogs.”

“Josh was super flexible with staying an extra night for us when we got delayed due to winter weather. He always communicates with us about the dogs while we are gone. We love having Josh stay with our dogs when we are gone.”

“Adrian was so amazing with our two pups! Our sweet babies can get very anxious but he kept them so calm and happy while we were away. He sends THE BEST pictures of your babies to update you. We will definitely be booking with him again.”

About: I'm a stay at home mom of 6 kids and have many pets. I have had dogs and other pets all of my life. I have obedience training knowledge, and have trained all of my dogs. I'm a stay at home mom, so I'm able to provide quality attention. Dogs are let outside every hour (shorter times when weather is hot). I live in a friendly neighborhood to go on nice walks. I have a decent sized yard with an 8 foot tall fence. Thank you for your time and hope to meet soon! *other animal care too* I take care of animals all day every day. My schedule is mostly open, other than kids' activities. Summer schedule is different than when school is in session. I have a large yard with secure fencing. Also can crate your furry friend at night if necessary. I want to treat them like you do in your own home.

“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. :)”

“Fabi was great at communicating with us about our pets and their needs! We often got pictures and updates during our time away. She prioritized our fur babies even during the holidays. Overall I think our pets enjoyed having her! ☺️”

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.

“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: Hi, I’m Darleen! I’ve been around dogs and cats my entire life, and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. Growing up, my family always had pets, so I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. On top of that, I’ve worked in caregiving for people and while doing that, I also helped care for my clients’ pets. That meant feeding, walking, cleaning up messes, giving meds when needed, and just making sure their animals felt safe and loved while their owners were away or nearby just needing extra assistance for their fur babies. So being patient, dependable, and detail-oriented is already second nature to me. I’m great with energetic dogs who need real playtime, shy or anxious pets who need reassurance, and older animals who need a gentler touch. I myself had a Chihuahua since childhood live to be 18 years old. She passed away a couple of years ago, so I know how it is to love and cherish them and watch your baby go through all the stages of life. That being said, I follow routines closely, respect your home, and I’ll always send photo updates so you know how your pet is doing. I truly treat pets like family and see them no other way. If you’re looking for someone reliable who genuinely cares about your animals, I’d love to help. Feel free to reach out for a meet & greet :) I’m currently unavailable on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but can work with other needs on other days. At the moment pretty flexible just need communication, of course to work something out. I care for pets the same way I care for my own — with patience, attention, and respect for their routines. I currently have three cats and a really sweet husky at home, so I’m used to managing different personalities and energy levels. I’ve also cared for clients’ pets while working in human caregiving, which means I’m comfortable following instructions closely, giving meds if needed, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable. I can accommodate whatever kenneling or crate needs are required at the location care is taking place, as well as follow any potty routine your dog needs. I always respect your home, keep things tidy, and send photo updates so you know your pet is doing okay.
“Connor was an amazing care giver for our Lily Mae. She is a pup who loves attention and thinks she is a lap dog (at 50 lbs) and he gave her all the love she needed and more. He sent lots of pictures and was so good at communicating with us. The house was just as we left it. We appreciate all of this!”

About: With over 4 years of pet care experience, I have developed a deep understanding of various breeds and their unique needs. Whether it's providing daily exercise, playtime, or administering medications, I ensure that every pet feels loved and safe. My goal is to create a comfortable environment where your furry friend can thrive while you're away! I currently work remotely, which allows me to be home all day and provide consistent care and attention to your dog. I dedicate quality time for play, companionship, and plenty of cuddles throughout the day. On weekends, I enjoy taking dogs on longer adventures, such as walks or trips to the park, to keep them active and engaged. I strive to create a fun, safe, and loving environment that keeps my routine lively and enjoyable—for both me and your pup! 🐶💚 I have a patio with a small fenced yard, providing a safe outdoor space for your dog to relax and play. I have one friendly Labradoodle who is 4 years old and gets along well with other dogs and children.
“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.”

Knollwood pet parents share their Rover experiences
Cameron goes WAY above and beyond!!! One cat had a medical emergency, and he was right on it - and it turned out to be non life threatening. But I was in the hospital, and it was SO comforting knowing the care Cameron was giving my fur babies!!!! I can’t say enough about how appreciative I am of his services, and I will always request Cameron first for any future bookings!!!!

Madelyn came to our home to care for our new puppy while we were out of town. We've never had an in-home sitter and can't say enough positive comments about Madelyn and this experience! She was exceptionally communicative throughout the weekend with numerous updates and pictures. Madelyn clearly has a love of animals that shows in her care and interactions. We highly recommend Madelyn to help you care for your pets when you're away! She will definitely be the first one we contact if we are in need of an in-home pet sitter again!

I had an amazing experience with Jocelyn watching my pup! She stayed overnight for three nights and did a fantastic job. You can really tell she cares about the animals she’s sitting. I received regular updates and tons of pictures, which put my mind at ease. Definitely will be rebooking her whenever I need a pet sitter again! Thanks, Jocelyn!!
