About: I have years of experience with in-home as well as drop-in pet sitting. I am reliable and dependable so you can be worry free when leaving for furry friends. I am a college student with a lot of down time to care for your furry friends. Pet sitting will fit perfectly into my weekly schedule since I only have short classes in the mornings. I will go above and beyond to make sure your pets are well taken care of, including walking, bathing, and much more. Anything you need for your pet I am more than happy to accommodate.
“This was our first time leaving our pets with a sitter, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Felicia was absolutely amazing—patient, caring, and truly attentive to our pets’ needs. She kept in great communication the entire 4 days, sending regular updates and photos that really put our minds at ease. It was clear our pets were in loving hands. We came home to happy, relaxed animals and a clean home. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!”
“She was excellent with my two old boys. Very responsive to any questions and giving daily updates! Will be using her very soon again. Don’t question, just give her a chance to watch your fur baby!”
“Adrian was very attentive of our cat. He was there on time and always kept us informed. I would definitely recommend him for other Rover users and I would book him again.”
“Alexis did a fantastic job taking care of our dog and two cats. She was always on time for feedings, made sure the animals had plenty of water, and cleaned the litter boxes regularly. More importantly, she played with our very needy fur babies. We will definitely book Alexis again when we travel.”
About: I’m a dedicated pet lover with hands-on experience caring for my own Labrador Retriever and other pets. I’m comfortable with active dogs, daily routines, and adapting to different personalities. What sets me apart is my reliability and attention to detail—I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I treat every animal like my own and keep owners updated for peace of mind. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. I’m used to planning my days around responsibilities, so feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins fit naturally into my schedule. I already care for my own dog, so pet care is something I do every day. I’m reliable with routines and can adjust my availability to meet each pet’s needs.

About: I was raised on a ranch and have grown up caring for a wide variety of animals. I have hands on experience with chickens, rabbits, llamas, alpacas, turtles, birds, sheep, cattle, horses, goats, cats, and both large and small dogs. I’m comfortable feeding, cleaning, exercising, and providing daily care for animals of all sizes. I also have experience administering medications and shots when needed, and I’ve assisted with animal births while families were away. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s something I’ve grown up doing and truly enjoy. Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine because I plan my schedule around the animals I’m caring for. I make time for feeding, exercise, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day to ensure each pet gets consistent attention and care. create a safe, calm, and clean environment by following each pet’s routine closely and keeping spaces secure. In my home or a client’s home, I supervise pets, provide proper feeding, give medications if needed, and make sure they feel comfortable, stress-free, and well cared for.
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: What sets me apart as a sitter is my hands-on experience with animals of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I’m comfortable caring for energetic puppies who need consistent training, as well as senior pets who require gentle handling, medication, and extra patience. I pride myself on reading each animal’s body language, building trust quickly, and tailoring my care to their unique needs—whether that’s reinforcing good habits, providing enrichment, or offering calm companionship. Pet care fits naturally into my college routine—I plan my class schedule and study time around feeding, walks, and play so pets always get reliable, focused attention. In my home, pets get a safe, comfortable space with plenty of play, walks, and snuggles. In my clients’ homes, I follow their routines closely—feeding, exercising, and giving attention just like they would—so pets feel secure and cared for in their familiar environment.
About: I am reliable and routine based. I will ensure the babies are fed,walked,bathed and receive the most love while in my care. Communication is very important to me and memories so I ensure that you will get FaceTime calls with the babies along with photos and videos and even some arts and crafts! I currently work from home so they furr babies will not be left alone. I have an SUV so car rides will be included if owner approved. I live in a two story loft apartment. It is Square Apartments ; so there is a beautiful walking trail on the complex and I also have a play area for the dogs inside of my home. Nap time is crucial so after play time I do play relaxing instrumentals to lounge and decompress. Rubs are a given and lots of hugs.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lubbock
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. :)

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 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!
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.

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.
