Katelyn was fantastic with Archie. He enjoyed his walks and belly rubs. She was good about sending photos and keeping me up to date with what Archie was up to.

Kayla was awesome!! I needed a last minute pet sitter and Kayla came to my rescue. She met a friend of mine who transferred keys and showed her into my home. I got updates on my pups snd pix. I would highly recommend Kayla!! Completely trust worthy and took great care of my fur kids.

Mandy went above and beyond for us. We contacted her to pet sit last minute, after another Rover sitter canceled 12 hours before we left for an international trip. She was understanding, accommodating, and so sweet with our pets. We would not hesitate to hire her again. Thank you, you’re the best Mandy!!

Amazing Dog Sitter! Makaehla was absolutely incredible while we were away. She stayed at our house and loved on Raven and Rasco like they were her own. We came home to happy pups and a spotless house, which says everything about how well she takes care of both pets and home. She went above and beyond, communicated perfectly, and gave us total peace of mind the entire time. We will definitely be booking with her again. Highly, highly recommend!

Nathan was absolutely wonderful as our house and dog sitter while we were away for Spring Break! From the start, he was communicative, reliable, and made us feel completely at ease leaving both our home and our dog in his care. He stayed in our home and treated it with great respect, everything was clean and just as we left it when we returned. Most importantly, our dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly got plenty of attention and exercise while we were gone. Nathan kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind during our trip. We truly appreciated how attentive and responsible he was, and it made a big difference knowing everything at home was in such good hands. We would absolutely recommend Nathan to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter, and we would love to have him back again in the future!

About: I’m a work-from-home sitter based in Lago Vista with over ten years of experience caring for cats, and I grew up with dogs. While my husband and I have worked as a duo in the past, these days it’ll be me caring for your pets while he stays home with ours. We have five cats of our own, so I understand firsthand how different each pet can be — their routines, quirks, and the specific ways they prefer to be approached. I take a calm, thoughtful approach and follow your care instructions closely, whether that’s medications, specific feeding routines, or simply letting them set the pace. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure while you’re away. I focus primarily on local clients, which allows me to provide consistent, reliable care and be fully present for each one. I’ve had dogs for most of my life and while we have all cats now, I consider my time with your dog as my puppy fix since I can't have one of my own right now. I have a genuine love and respect for all life and creatures. While your pets are in my care, you can expect clear communication, swift responsiveness, respect for your home, and care that’s kind, consistent, genuine, therapeutic and dependable. I work from home full-time, and care for our five cat babies along with my husband. Because of my schedule, I can offer flexible and reliable care for your babies while you’re away. My home is a calm, clean, cat-friendly environment - no loose hazards, secure spaces, and a routine that keeps animals feeling settled. With five cats of my own, I’m practiced at introducing new animals carefully and reading their comfort level every step of the way. In your home, I follow your instructions closely and treat your space with respect. I make note of any hiding spots, food preferences, behavioral cues, and anything else that helps your pet feel at ease. Medications are administered carefully and on schedule, and I stay observant for any changes in behavior or health. Whether in my home or yours, my priority is a therapeutic experience for all.

Jena was an amazing sitter! Hands down one of the best that we have ever had. She took extraordinary care of our 3 pups, as well as our home. She was great with pupdates throughout her stay along with some great pics of our pups. She even celebrated our own pup’s bday for us with the cutest little party! We highly recommend Jena and will 100% continue to book with her!

Kylie was absolutely amazing with my dogs, and I can’t recommend her enough. From the very beginning, her communication was clear, timely, and reassuring, which made me feel completely at ease while I was away. She surely made sure my dogs were happy and well cared for. It’s obvious that Kylie genuinely loves what she does. She was incredibly kind, patient, and attentive to my dogs’ needs, and they warmed up to her right away. My dogs were relaxed, happy, and clearly comfortable in her care - which says everything. If you’re looking for someone reliable, communicative, and truly great with dogs, Kylie is the one. I would absolutely trust her again without hesitation!

Payton was our first overnight dog and house sitter and she exceeded all of our expectations and more. She watched over our 11 week old puppy Benny (who needs a lot of love, playtime, and potty breaks when he’s not napping) for 3 days while we went out of town for a wedding. We were very nervous to leave him for the first time and she made us feel very happy and comfortable with our decision by sending us several 3 to 4 updates per day, lots of photos, and we could clearly see our boy very happy and playful with her. She also tidied up after herself and left the house very clean which I appreciate after a trip. She clearly loves animals and followed our instructions perfectly

About: We are a family of 5 - Erika (Spouse) Me (Patrick), Cailen (Little boy of 3yrs), Cherie (Boxer) and Chiquito (Chihuahua) always 5 in same room, love at all time and caring having fun in yard, water and running! Nobody cares about dogs like we do... provide treats, care and very loving towards dogs. Dogs travel with us, dog follows us everywhere, shaded back yard so they can run, they swim with us in the little kids pool they take sun or simply chill.... very easy life here and plenty of place to run or relax as needed. No furniture in house is off limits. You break or chew then we lose that privilege. Simple, dog fun and be reassured we will treat your dog as we'd expect you treat ours.

About: I've always been a huge lover of animals! My grandparents took me to AKC shows and I became obsessed with knowing as many dog breeds as possible. I worked in animal welfare for 3 years with dogs and cats, including working in the spay/neuter clinic. I am experienced with big and strong breeds. I also really love cats! I have a cat and a Border Collie at home. My full time job is a 911 Dispatcher. I work a rotating schedule, of 12 hour days, 6a-6p but it's usually 4 days a week. I'd prefer to care for pets on my off days. At the moment I can house sit but am not able to provide frequent potty breaks during the day. I'm not open to caring for pets in my home. I live in an apartment and have pets of my own so it's not set up for more.

Kelsie is awesome! I will definitely ask her to watch my babies again, she was so communicative and gave me pictures and a daily schedule of happenings. She even gave my animal her medication which wasn’t even planned. It feels really good to leave town and know that your animals are in the hands of someone like her.

We valued the responsiveness of Meg to the needs of our pets. She demonstrated her ability to adapt to one dog having several days of stomach issues and a bit more snow around the house than we had expected. She sent pictures daily, which we appreciated and gave us a summary of the week in a hand written note, which was helpful for us as well. Thank you for the snuggle time with the pups as well, Meg!
