About: Along with having three dogs currently (ranging ages) of my own and volunteering/fostering at various animal shelters in my life, I have a love for getting to know each individual personality of every animal. I have a very calm and loving disposition that really helps ease animals while also keeping a standard of discipline and training. I have a fairly open availability before I’m back at TXST for the new semester. I am very physically active so I appreciate animals that require walk or play! I love to keep up with them… or at least try. I have a large backyard with plenty of open space. I recognize other pets might not always get along with my own so I utilize all the senses slowly to acclimate all animals to eachother. At other people’s home I greatly appreciate extensive rules and notes on the pet and home to ensure I care for everything accordingly.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 10 years and truly love being around animals. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels, including puppies and older dogs who need a little extra care. I’m happy to follow any specific routines or instructions to keep your pet happy and stress-free. I have a pretty flexible schedule right now, so I’m able to give pets a lot of attention. I’m available most weekdays and weekends and can easily work around your pet’s normal routine to keep things consistent and stress-free. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow all care instructions closely and make sure your pet feels secure, calm, and cared for at all times. I’m attentive to behavior, routines, and any special needs, and I provide updates so you have peace of mind while you’re away. I also treat your home with respect and keep everything clean and secure.
About: Hi all! ☀️ I’ve sat for my friends and family members throughout the years. I have experience caring for young and senior pets. I don’t discriminate, I love all animals! 💖 No matter the pet, I always make sure they’re always loved and cared for! I love taking pets on a walk, playing with toys, snacking together and cuddling. I don’t have any pets of my own, which means my full focus will be on your angel(s)! 👼 Sitting is also a way to get my weekly dopamine boost, as I am pet-less at the moment 😆 I have a full-time job, so I’m not super flexible during typical work hours M-F, but I have lots of flexibility after work and on the weekends. I would be honored to watch over your babies, thank you for taking time to look through my profile! 🫶 I work full time M-F from 8:30am to 5pm. I WFH on Tuesdays and Thursdays and have some flexibility these days. On M, W, & Th I get home around 6:40pm ish. Free on the weekends! I keep my apartment clean and organized at all times. When I’ve sat for friends/family I always cleaned up after myself and am very respectful of their space. I will also take care of any plant babies you have, as a plant mom myself! 🪴
“Thank you so much for your help last minute! Lynn was quick to respond to my request and updated me since she had never been over to our house before! She even was willing to try and let my other yorkie out which I appreciated.”
About: I love animals (probably more than people lol)! I have worked at an animal hospital for two years. Interacted with pets of all shapes and sizes! I grew up with dogs and started pet sitting as a preteen-friends, family, neighbors. I’ve fostered and babysat cats and dogs for long and short stays, including puppies and older cats. I can administer medication. I rescued my dog as a puppy and I have a big interest in dog psychology. I continue to train and work with my dog everyday, as it brings me a lot of joy. I even started a dog training business with my sister and our own podcast (we’re in the early stages!), as we share a love for our four-legged companions! We help coach other owners and touch on topics like dog behavior, holistic health, diet, the vet, dog myths, different training styles, and everything in between! Being around animals makes me so happy! I cherish the time I spend with my dog as he is my favorite companion and I would love the opportunity to get to spend time with your beloved companion(s). :) I work part time so I have time to care for your pet during the day and the days I work I’m not gone for too long! I have a fenced yard and one dog to keep your pet company, if desired. He his crate trained and I can crate your pet if needed as well! I give my dog lots of potty breaks and exercise and play time as well as nap time and training time-keep his mind and body fulfilled and meet his needs:) I plan to do the same with your pet, obviously with their specific needs in mind!
“Errin is such a wonderful cat sitter for us! She always arrives on time, plays with the cats, and sends updates with the cutest photos. We never worry about our cats when Errin is in charge.”
“Fabtastic choice! Sophia was very communicative, timely, and attentive to our pup + cats needs! She went above and beyond to make sure our senior boy was well taken care of while we were away. Would recommend big time!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and other pets since I was 12. Friends and family have relied on me for taking care of their pets! I’m currently working remotely so I’ll have plenty of time to play and care. Available for boarding and home sitting weekdays and weekends. I have one small breed dog. I don’t have a fence or yard but I live in front of a big field and park where I take my small breed to play with and without leash.
“Definitely five stars for Meni. She’s a great communicator, prompt, and treated my dog and two kitties with the upmost care. We’ll definitely be using her services again.”
“Nathan is amazing. He’s thorough and SO communicative. He sent pet pictures and videos the entire time, and even when Diesel was being a little hellion was so patient and even spent some extra time with him to calm him down. Please use him, you won’t regret it. He’s going to be my regular sitter moving forward!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs most of my life, never had any of my own but have always been trusted with them from others. I’ve managed giving medicine, and giving consistent walks or play time. I’ll be sure to give your pet lots of scratches, cuddles and TLC. I’m currently a middle school teacher with evenings and weekends available, I would be able to take your dog on long walks and check in after work. I can check in with your dog before and after work to feed, give potty breaks, walk and provide general care or playtime with your dog.
“5 ⭐️ I needed to leave on short notice, and Nigel and Ziggy needed adhere to a strict schedule for food and potty as they always have. Demona went above and beyond for my sweet boys (I think they prefer her more than me now!) She was very communicative and followed instructions very well. I know for sure she treated them as if they were her own canine companions. Can not recommend her enough! Thanks, Demona!”

“Morgan was absolutely AMAZING!! This is our second time leaving our Benji with her and we trust her 100%! Our Benji loves her and her kids! He had a few accidents and she was so sweet to clean it up for us and let us know where they were. She also sent us videos of him and always gave us the best updates! She also started our roomba before we came home which was so thoughtful! Don’t think I’m ever getting another sitter!!”
“Excellent communication! This was my first time using Rover and Ava made me feel comfortable with the process ensuring she had all the info to care and love for my pups! Would highly recommend!”
About: I’ve always had dogs as pets and enjoy pet sitting. I currently have three of my own. Charlie- a poodle mix, Cash- a golden retriever, and Moose- our Bernese mountain dog. I work from home and the boys would love extra company to play. I have a big yard with a pool and tanning ledge the pups love to use to cool off. I work from home so having an extra couple of pups at the house would be fantastic! My dogs would love having extra playmates. I adhere to your pup routines to keep things consistent. I have a fence yard with three friendly dogs and a pool with a tanning ledge for the dogs to cool off on hot days when I let them out for a quick timed potty breaks.

Suzanna took excellent care of our 2 dogs while we were on a hard to predict labor delivery timeline. She was super flexible with a last minute move and sent great pictures and notes on every visit that made us feel like the dogs were in really great hands and we didn’t have to worry about anything.
This is our forth time having Jordyn watch our pets, and once again she was absolutely wonderful. We always feel at ease knowing they’re in her care. She follows all of our instructions carefully (which isn’t easy with multiple pets on different diets!), keeps us updated, and it’s clear she genuinely cares about them. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets and a tidy house, which we really appreciate. It’s such a relief to have someone we can fully trust while we’re away. We’ll definitely continue booking with Jordyn and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.
Sherron did an amazing job taking care of our senior dog while we were away. She was reliable, communicative, and made us feel completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. We really appreciate the care and attention she gave him and would definitely recommend her services!
Mandy was amazing and our pets loved her! She was very communicative and takes her job watching our loved ones very seriously! I loved all of the communication while we were gone and didn’t feel like we had to worry while being on vacation! Will rebook with her for sure!!
Leah did an amazing job taking care of our dogs! She was incredibly kind, attentive, and caring throughout the entire visit. She even took the initiative to put our trash out and bring the trash bin back into the garage something that was completely beyond what we expected. We truly have no words to express how grateful we are for her thoughtfulness and willingness to go the extra mile. Thank you so much, Leah! We would absolutely recommend you to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Leander 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 Leander 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 .

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 Leander with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
