“Traci is absolutely amazing with my Bubba. She treated him as if he was her own. And I loved the updates with pictures and videos throughout his stay. We will definitely use her services again!”
“This is our 2nd time leaving Simon with Joanna. She sends us picture updates that puts us at ease. Our dog is pretty easygoing and fits right in. In the pics he looks like one of the family. I feel sad when I leave him BUT I know he is in great hands in a home environment vs a kennel somewhere locked up. Joanna, you’re a rockstar! ❤️❤️❤️”
“John and Erika took real good care of my boy. Sent plenty of pictures daily and reassured that he’s having a blast! Would recommend their service to anyone searching.”
About: I’ve always had cats and dogs (and 9 other species) in my home, and I truly love all the fur babies in the whole wide world! Your pets are family, and I treat them that way. I’m attentive, organized, and detail-oriented (from my teaching background). I will provide expert, dependable care so your pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, giving meds, and helping pets who have special needs. I’m also big on communication (and sending pictures) so you have peace of mind while you’re away. My home is fun, loving, and full of attention. I’ll make sure your pets get plenty of affection, playtime, and care. I can’t wait to meet your fur babies! My wife is a teacher so she is always home during the evenings and weekends. I work from home and enjoy having the extra company around the house. I have a fenced back yard and a big playful bernadoodle that loves to have friends over. (My dog can be relocated if your animals do not get along with others.) We live around a lake with plenty of great walking trails and big fenced in properties, lots of places to get good fresh air around us. Typically I take my dog somewhere to play of walk in the mornings, relax and get some work done until the afternoon, then try to get another walk in. We have lots of toys to play with and do lick mats and scent training games if weather is yucky.
“Wow! Wow! Wow! A diamond five star sitter. We had such a wonderful experience with Cindy and her family for our dog’s long-term stay. From the very beginning, I felt like he was in the best hands. Cindy allowed us to visit her home with our dog to make sure we were comfortable with her accommodations. She was so communicative and kept us updated every day on what they were doing, along with pictures that always showed a happy, well-cared-for dog. She even introduced him to a new experience by letting him try her swimming pool, and he got to have so many fun adventures with her and her family. It was really special knowing he wasn’t just being watched. He was genuinely being loved and included. The biggest compliment I can give is that while we were away, I truly didn’t have to worry about him. I knew he was safe, happy, and being taken care of, and that gave me such peace of mind. We are so grateful for the care and love she gave him and would absolutely recommend her!”
“God Bless this wonderful at the last minute host who was able to watch our Gouda. He showed us videos of Gouda at play. While getting exercise in his enormous backyard, it looks like a dog’s Dream.) I would highly recommend Don.”
“Catherine was great with Marley. She sent photos and updates several times during the week. She was even concerned about him being scared of the rain/ thunder and took extra care to make sure he felt safe and secure during the thunder storms. I will definitely use her again.”
“This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Maria and her family took such great care of Luna and Oliver, sent regular updates and pictures, and gave me so much peace of mind while I was out of the country. It was obvious they were well loved and cared for. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her!”
“Kaho took great care of my fur babies while I was out of town. They are senior dogs that require a lot of medications and are picky when it comes to eating or taking pills. Kaho made my two boys feel right at home and when I arrived to pick them up, they were in no hurry to leave. She also gave me several updates while my two Boston Terriers stayed with her.”
“Trevor was communicative and friendly. My dog appeared to have a good time and he sent pictures, videos, and informative updates throughout his stay. I would recommend Trevor as a pet sitter.”
“we had a great experience. He’s very knowledgeable and took our dog out on plenty walks. Kept us updated with plenty of pictures. Definitely will recommend and will be using again. It’s rare to find someone who cares as much about our dog as his dog thank you so much”
“My Coco absolutely loves this family!! They take such good care of her. I always know she is in good hands when I drop her off! She is a regular with them and will continue to be one!”
“Max seemed so comfortable and happy during his stay. He came home looking clean, well cared for, and in a great mood. We had a last-minute change in our schedule and needed someone to take Max the very next day, and they were kind enough to accommodate us. Their home was very clean, organized, and well maintained. They also took Max for walks every day. They clearly have a lot of experience caring for dogs, and I felt completely at ease knowing Max was in such good hands. We would definitely love to have Max stay with them again in the future. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our Max! 저희 강아지 맥스가 정말 안정되게 잘 있었던 것 같아요. 강아지가 너무 기분도 좋아 보이고요. 그리고 청결하고 깔끔하게 잘 있었던 느낌이 듭니다. 갑작스러운 일정 때문에 저희가 바로 다음날 맡기는 것이었는데 맡아주셨고 집도 아주 깨끗하고 관리가 잘 되는 느낌이었어요. 산책도 날마다 시켜주셨고요. 그리고 능숙하게 잘 강아지를 봐주신 것 같아서 너무 마음이 놓였습니다. 다음번에도 또 맡기고 싶은 분이세요. 너무나 감사드려요.”
About: What sets me apart is my combination of hands on experience, patience, and a genuine commitment to understanding each pet’s individual needs. I’ve worked with a wide range of animals, including energetic puppies who need structure and training, as well as senior pets who require gentler, slower-paced care and close attention to comfort and mobility. I’m confident handling feeding routines, administering basic medications, and managing pets with anxiety or special quirks. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, create a calm environment, and communicate consistently with owners so they feel fully at ease while they’re away. Whether it’s reinforcing positive training for puppies, offering mobility support and extra patience for seniors, or giving plenty of love and playtime to pets of any age, I’m committed to providing reliable, compassionate care that feels like an extension of your own home. For all pet care needs a child will be with me at all times. Your dogs MUST be child friendly. For dog sitting requests in the home, I do not stay the night. If you are nearby to Denton, TX, I can do 3-4 visits drop by daily. Father away will be 1-2 times for a drop by visit. Please be aware before booking a house sitting request. Pet care is a natural part of my routine, and I build my schedule around providing consistent attention and support. I’m used to planning my mornings and evenings around feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins. I keep a flexible schedule so I can accommodate pets who need mid-day visits or a little extra time. Throughout the week, I make sure each pet gets the right balance of exercise, companionship, and calm downtime. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze in. It is something I prioritize and enjoy as part of my everyday rhythm especially having 3 dogs of my own! When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as familiar and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding instructions, walk schedules, and training preferences exactly as given. I also make sure to keep their environment clean, safe, and comfortable! I do that by having refreshing water, tidying up food areas, and giving plenty of playtime or quiet time depending on what the pet needs. I stay attentive to their behavior and well-being. I also send regular updates so their owners feel confident and connected. When caring for pets in my own home, I create a calm and welcoming space that’s pet-friendly and supervised. Having three dogs of my own plus accommodating for others will be fun! I provide structured play, exercise, and rest. I make sure pets feel secure, whether that means cozy spots to relax or engaging activities to burn energy. I treat every pet like part of the family by being patient, promoting safety, and with lots of love and consistency. For all pet care needs a child will be with me at all times. Your dogs MUST be child friendly. For dog sitting requests in the home, I do not stay the night. If you are nearby to Denton, TX, I can do 3-4 visits drop by daily. Father away will be 1-2 times for a drop by visit. Please be aware before booking a house sitting request.
“Blanca was a fabulous dog sitter! She watched both my lab and boxer while we were out of town for 5 days. She sent frequent updates and pictures. Would definitely recommend and use again. Thanks Blanca!”
“Katie was amazing! This was my first time boarding my rescue, so I was very nervous. My dog is also a naturally very anxious dog, and her family and dog made him feel right at home! She sent updates everyday and it truly made me feel a lot more secure being away from my pup. He immediately came home and curled up to go to sleep, so mission accomplished! I will definitely be messaging Katie again next time I head out of town.”
“Tiffany is Amazing! She took such great care of Layla, sent pictures and updates every day. She put Layla on a schedule, brushed her, walked her every day, took care of her as if Layla was hers. Highly recommend Tiffany!!”
“Maria took great care of our pup, Bear, and we couldn't be happier! She is extremely caring and pays attention to detail. From Bear's feeding schedule to regular walking routes, nothing was overlooked. She sent regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Bear was clearly comfortable and happy with her, and came home relaxed and well-exercised. Maria genuinely loves animals and treats every pet like her own. We wouldn't hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive sitter!”

Srividya was wonderful! She took excellent care of my 9‑month‑old German Shepherd. I was a little nervous since it was our first time leaving her with someone else, but Srividya kept me updated throughout the stay and shared plenty of photos and videos. I highly recommend her!
Bree has 2 younger Fur Babies that I hoped my Garfield would interact with. He didn't so they put him in with one of their kids to allow him to settle a bit. He stayed under the bed, so they brought him back down to the cat room and he was very content. Nice cat tree, shelves up high and a windowsill - all a cat dreams about ! I'm happy that Bree moved him as needed. I had a relatively short trip but Bree was able to send a fair amount of pictures which was appreciated. Snafus occurred with some of the food and she reported that quickly and replaced.
Kim & Scott are always our first choice for boarding if they’re available. Our dog came home happy, playful, tired, and totally herself. We love getting the daily photo updates, especially the sweet cuddle photos! It's clear she is loved and is treated like one of their own when she stays with them. We also really appreciated them picking up food for her when she ran out. They're the best, HIGHLY recommend!
Yan was amazing with our puppy, Nova! Caring for a 13-week-old puppy is a lot of work, and she was incredibly patient and attentive the entire time. We loved getting the photo updates every day—they really put our minds at ease while we were away. One of our favorite parts was seeing how well Nova bonded with Yan’s Golden Retriever, Daisy. They became fast friends, and it was so nice seeing Nova have such a calm, gentle companion during her stay. We came home to a happy puppy, and it was obvious she had been well cared for and loved. We’d absolutely trust Yan with Nova again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. Thanks again, Yan!
Lauren and Holden were fantastic! We had never left our one year old lab before, so we were a little nervous, but they immediately put us at ease. Communication was excellent, and they kept us updated with pictures throughout the week, which meant so much to us. Max clearly had an amazing time and was so well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you again, Lauren and Holden. We’ll definitely be using you again!
Kristin did a fantastic job with Kika! She was always nice, responsive, and kept me updated on Kika's activities throughout the stay. She was incredibly attentive to all of Kika’s needs, prompt, and resourceful. She was also highly flexible and accommodated a pickup outside of our agreed time. Thank you so much, Kristin!
Clare was amazing! She took care of our dog for a little over a week. She sent pictures of Zoey everyday playing outside and looking great. Clare’s was extremely communicative as well. Highly recommend Clare and will definitely use her again when we need her. Thanks, Clare!
Our original sitter had an emergency while we were out of town, requiring our dog to be reassigned immediately. We were concerned that we would need to fly home. The Rover Support Team was able to look for a new sitter and Shante volunteered immediately, even though she did not get our dog dropped off until near midnight. She was quick to give us updated information able our dog and continued to send pictures every day to let us know our dog was well taken care of. She was very cooperative concerning when would could pick up our dog.
We had our second sitting with Amanda & Prajwal during a family vacation and I can't say enough good things. Good communication and my pup was happy as can be playing with his buddies. Thanks again for taking great care of him. As I said the first time, it's great to have the piece of mind that your dog will be taken care.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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.

Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
