About: I have experience caring for animals through both my own pets and previous work involving animal care through pet sitting. I’m comfortable feeding, walking, playing with, and keeping an eye on pets while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable looking after your pets, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention and are cared for according to your instructions. I’m available for pet care visits frequently throughout the day. I can stay for a while during visits to feed and care for your pets, clean up after them, play with them, or simply spend time keeping them company. I will follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific care instructions you provide. I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, keep their space clean, and give them plenty of attention. I’m also careful about doors, gates, leashes, and anything else needed to keep your pet safe and secure.

I have also worked professionally as a dog bather so if you would also like your fur baby to get a bath or if they are good for nail trims then I can help. I'm available anytime and day I'm needed to play with puppies or spend time with your dog or cat, walk them or even just to spend time with them. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow the pet’s regular schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications they may need. I spend quality time with them so they feel safe and cared for while their owner is away, whether that means playing, giving attention, or just keeping them company.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life! I have experience with small dogs, medium dogs, and large dogs! I have a short-haired German pointer named Bonnie. My husband and I adopted her in August 2024 after we lost our dog Peter Pan in June. I have experience with dogs with seizures as well. Peter experienced seizures. I also have experience with senior dogs who have trouble walking and back problems. My dog I grew up with back problems and I learned how to feed her when she couldn’t walk. I am a stay at home mom to my 1 year old, so I have a pretty flexible schedule. Weekends I’m free in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings before 6:30 pm. I have a fenced in yard and a 2 year old dog. She is very friendly and loves to play with other dogs. I also have a 1 year old who loves to be around animals!
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated and compassionate pet sitter with a lifelong love for animals. I grew up around large dogs, so I’m very comfortable handling big breeds, energetic personalities, and strong walkers. From playful puppies to calm seniors, I understand that every pet has unique needs and deserves individualized care. I’m currently studying veterinary medicine, which gives me a strong foundation in animal behavior, health, and safety. I’m experienced with administering basic medications, recognizing signs of stress or illness, and providing calm, confident care in all situations. Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority. I believe pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs exercise, enrichment, medication, or just extra love and reassurance while you’re away, I’m happy to provide a safe, nurturing environment you can trust. I am an army veteran, a wife, a student and a mother. I own a small business therefore I have a lot of free time available as I al able to make my own schedule. Pets are treated like my own at home. (If you allow it) they are free to roam the home, they are allowed on furniture as well. They have a fully fenced backyard to run and play in. I have crates as well if you prefer for them to be caged. At your home I will follow and respect any of your routines to make sure both you and your pet have a pleasant experience. I will treat your home with respect just as if it were my own. I will tidy up as needed.
About: I've had pets all my life. Neighbors, coworkers, friends, and family have all counted on my to care for their pets. Check ins, walks, baths, and of course play time are no problem. I work a full time job that is fairly flexible so, getting out to see your pups won't be an issue. I'll always let you know about scheduling conflicts so we can work them out and meet your pets needs. Nobody knows your pets better than you. I will follow your instructions to the T and care for your pets like they're my own. Any issues will be brought to you immediately and no decisions will be made without you.
About: I have great experience in both dogs and cats. I’ve raised both of my kittens since they were about a month old, so I am confident in working with younger pets in addition to seniors. I grew up with dogs, whom it was my sole responsibility to take care of. I have experience with all different dog personality types, including hyper. I am confident in my ability to care for either your cat or dogs needs! I am a full time student at Tech who typically works full time throughout the school year. This summer I am taking online courses and that is my only engagement. I am available most of the time to help you and your pet in any way you need! I think watching a pet in their own home/environment is important to them feeling safe and secure. I can ensure that anything the pet needs, I will be there to do it. I love notes and instructions, and would love to know your pets daily schedule, medications, treats, and any crucial information for your pet’s needs, and will follow it to a T.
About: I love pets and spending time with them. I don't have one currently because I’m in college and I can't afford them. My brother has a dog that I take care of every winter when he travels. I have a lot of time to spend on your pets. I've had a dogs and a cat my whole life. I'm college student that’s currently on summer break with nothing to do, so l have plenty of time to care for your pets as if they were my own. I live in an apartment community but there is a fenced yard for pets and I live fairly close to a park and a walking trail is just down the street from where I live.
About: I've had many dogs ranging from senior to puppy and love them all with their different quirks. All animals require something different and am willing to jump in to whatever they need! I am currently a freshman at TTU in the Pre-veterinary track. Outside of my set class schedule I am free to whenever you need me! I love walking dogs and playing with them. Whatever you ask such as crating I am more than willing to take care of. I do not mind I will listen to what your pet needs and make it happen.
About: I haven’t taken care of dogs for my entire life, but I’ve always had a passion for them! I have experience taking care of my roommates pets since I’ve been in college and I now have a dog of my own that I care for! This includes feeding, walking, administering basic medications, and maintaining consistent schedules. The dogs I’ve cared for range from 6 months to 10 years old so I have experience with all ages and stages of life. I have a deep love for animals and I’m an agriculture major at Texas Tech so animals are part of my studies as well! As a college student, I value communication and reliability. I’ll make sure your pet receives attention, exercise, and affection while keeping you updated! My goal is to help your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I currently have another part-time job, so I will have a lot of time to care for your pets! I’m typically available to take care of your pets after 3pm Monday through Thursday and all day Friday through Sunday! I will not be taking pets in my own home as I live in student housing, but I know the importance of keeping your pet comfortable both in and outside the home! I have a dog of my own and it took him a while to get comfortable, so I know how to help a pup adjust and will learn your dog’s personal quirks to ensure the best care!

About: I have been pet sitting for about 2 years, but it is my favorite side job! I love animals of all kinds and sizes and have been trusted to stay in homes to take care of people’s beloved family members, and their home. I’m currently an elementary school teacher at Wolffarth Elementary in North Lubbock. Depending on what area I am in, I will usually leave with enough time to get to work by 7am. I cannot leave for lunch as I sadly only have 30 minutes, but I am done by 4 every day. This makes it easy to spend the evening with them and I won’t have different hours every day - routine is great for pets! I also share holidays with students so I am pretty available for sitting jobs at those times. While my apartment is a 1 bedroom, it is cozy and great for lower energy dogs. I have plenty of space for them to lay out and they stay in the air conditioning all day. For more active pets, I live right next to a middle school with a paved track for walking, and I am close to a park for dogs who love to run and play fetch!
About: I love animals and I would love to make yours feel loved and safe when you can’t be there yourself. You will not be disappointed! I can accommodate your schedule! Long term or short term, I can come to them while you are away. I can help ease your worries! I will stand in for you while you are away and do things your way! Trust me with your pets while you can’t be there
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Lubbock is $16
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lubbock
We had such an amazing experience with Kassandra during our wedding weekend! 🐾🤍 Leaving our two babies while traveling for our wedding was something I was honestly a little nervous about, but from the very beginning, she made us feel completely at ease. She was attentive, caring, communicative, and treated our dogs like her own. We received updates and check-ins, which meant so much to us and allowed us to fully enjoy our wedding without constantly worrying about how our babies were doing. It was such a relief knowing they were safe, happy, loved, and well taken care of while we were away. Our dogs clearly had a great time and were comfortable with her, which says everything! I’m so grateful for the care and kindness she showed our babies during such a special weekend for us. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, dependable, and genuinely loving toward their pets. We will definitely be using her again! 🐶❤️ Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our babies! You gave us one less thing to worry about during our wedding weekend, and we truly appreciate it! 💍🐾
Ava did a wonderful job in taking care of our kittens and dogs. She came daily for 10 days while we were out of town, fed the dogs, checked their water, fed our kittens, checked their water, cleaned their litter box daily. We have some wild ducks who show up so she was kind to put food and water out for them daily also. When we came back and she came by to say goodbye, the pets were so comfortable with her and at ease. We plan on using Ava again in a few months. She is very pleasant, follows directions well and did a super job keeping up with four pets daily. She also kept us updated daily with pictures and texts which we enjoyed.
Hanna took great care of my fur babies. She is patient and so understanding of each of my dogs. She is punctual and consistent on her visits which is important for dogs like mine who are very use to a schedule. I highly recommend Hanna for pet sitting needs and will use her again. Thank you Hanna. :)

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 Lubbock 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!

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.

Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
