About: With a strong sense for dog body language and behavior, I naturally bond with dogs and know how to keep them engaged, playful, and calm. Whether it’s a high-energy pup or a senior companion, I tailor their care to suit their needs and give them a fulfilling, well-balanced day. My schedule allows me to maintain consistent routines for feeding, training, sleep, and potty breaks. I offer a variety of experiences from city parks to nature hikes, giving dogs exposure to a diverse range of settings. I also provide basic training support including crate, leash/off-leash, recall, sport-based games like fetch and frisbee, and even task-based and obedience exercises—skills I’ve developed through 10+ years of experience with dogs from puppyhood to senior stages. As a graduate student currently on summer break, my schedule is wide open—and I’ve intentionally structured my time to prioritize pet care. I’m available for care throughout the day, whether that means early-morning walks, mid-day play sessions, or overnight sitting. My flexibility allows me to tailor routines around your dog’s unique needs, whether they’re energetic and need lots of stimulation or prefer a slower, calmer pace. I spend much of my time outdoors, and I love incorporating dogs into that lifestyle—hiking scenic trails, visiting off-leash parks, or just taking long neighborhood walks. I believe dogs thrive when they experience new encounters, and I work those moments of enrichment into every week. I live in a spacious, first-floor apartment with direct access to a secure patio and a neighborhood dog park—just steps outside my door. This makes potty breaks, quick outdoor play/walks, and socialization seamless and stress-free. Every day, our neighborhood hosts friendly dog meetups with well-behaved pups, offering perfect opportunities for your dog to engage with others in a safe environment. Inside my home, dogs will find a clean, calm, and organized space with plenty of enrichment. I have a variety of toys, training tools, puzzles, and games to ensure your dog stays mentally and physically stimulated—the goal is for no boredom and anxiety. I also keep a full range of grooming and cleaning supplies on hand, so whether your dog needs a simple wipe-down or a post-adventure bath, I’ve got it covered. I am well-versed in training methods and behavior management, so if your pup has specific routines or commands, I likely already have the knowledge and equipment to maintain their structure. I’m happy to reinforce crate training, leash manners, or any custom instructions you provide to ensure consistency while you’re away. I also have a well-socialized golden retriever mix who’s incredibly calm, friendly, and trained to model great behavior for other dogs. If your dog enjoys companionship, mine makes an excellent playmate. If needed, I can crate or separate the dogs for one-on-one attention or downtime—your dog’s comfort and safety always come first.

“Kaitlin was absolutely incredible and professional in all aspects. I requested a house sitting with my pets for a long weekend and she exceeded all expectations. She is perfect for multi animal households of individual care. Regular updates were sent with pictures. Her attention to detail and level of care is unmatched. I will definitely be requesting her services again in the future.”


“Jack is absolutely incredible! She went above and beyond every day I was gone, and I knew that my dog was getting the best possible care. I am pretty sure he wants me to go on more trips so Jack can come back!”


“Jeremy was excellent with our three dogs over the holiday weekend. Despite the bad weather, they got plenty of exercise, and the house and yard were very clean when we returned. We would definitely have Jeremy back to watch our dogs.”


“Thomas was extremely professional and took great care of our two dogs. We have a rambunctious vizsla puppy who he did great with. Attentive, communicative, and dependable, we were glad we booked him to dog-sit and look forward to doing so again!”


“Andrew goes above and beyond to care for my pups and home. Provides continuous updates and photos throughout the stay. I feel safe and comfortable knowing my pets are in good hands. Wish I could keep him for myself!”


“I needed to find somebody last minute to take care of my dog for a good 5 days and Anastasiia was amazing. She right away was able to take care of my dog house sitting, spending time with her, taking care of her and much more. She checked-in with me each day giving me updates and sent pictures so I could see how everything was going.”

Her meticulous attention to detail and genuine affection for animals were evident in every interaction. Our senior dog's special needs were met with unwavering patience and compassion, giving us peace of mind during our time away. Nicole's dedication to their well-being, coupled with her responsible approach, created a worry-free experience for us. We returned to happy, well-cared-for pets, thanks to her stellar care. Nicole's commitment to our dogs' happiness and health makes her an invaluable pet sitter we wholeheartedly recommend.”


“Anastasia did a wonderful job with our dogs. They warmed up to her fast. She sent us regularly pictures of our pups throughout the day which we loved. She was also great with checking in with us on any questions she had for us. Also, watered our garden for us which was a huge plus. Very clean and came back to a very tidy house. She will definitely be our main dog sitter now.”


About: Hi, I am new to Rover but not taking care of animals. I have 5+ years experience in making sure cats & dogs feel loved. Along the way, I’ve developed a deep connection with both dogs and cats. I truly believe animals communicate with us we just have to pay close attention. I take great pride in listening to their needs, understanding their unique personalities, and giving them the care, comfort, and love they deserve. Whether your pet is playful, shy, cuddly, or independent, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, seen, and completely loved. I specialize in getting your dog's sniffs in & I get a lot of joy seeing a happy dog enjoying their walk. Overall my ability to listen is what I believe makes me a great care giver for your pet and I can't wait to be your puppers new best friend. I am lucky to have a fairly open schedule and it gives me great flexibility. With One to Two day notice I should always be available to find time to fit your needs. When caring for pets, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I create a calm, safe, and pet friendly environment where they can feel comfortable. I take the time to get to know each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs or quirks. I follow all care instructions closely, from feeding schedules to medication and favorite toys and I keep a close eye on behavior and body language to make sure things are all good. In a client’s home, I treat the space with the utmost respect and aim to maintain your pet’s routine to reduce stress while you're away. I always double check doors, gates, and leashes to keep everyone secure and safe. Communication is key, so I provide regular updates, photos, and honest feedback to build trust and peace of mind.

“Alexa is hands down amazing. Communicative, dedicated, flexible, and caring. Our pup Forest got lots of good activity and kept his routine! We came back to a happy pup, a tidy and clean house, and would book Alexa again in a heartbeat. Thank you!”


“Every photo and every video that Kassidy sent me of my pup showed a happy and active dog! I came home from my trip to a well cared for home and a well cared for pup. Kassidy provides excellent communication and excellent care. She is also very sweet and easy to talk to.”

Cameron C.
“Cameron has been a such a reliable & great friend of mine for a while now. Countless times, I have asked Cameron to take care of my fur baby kitties (4 of them!) & my large doggie. He was there last minute, having my back exactly the way I would take care of my pets. Walking, playing fetch, catering to my dogs needs! He is such a caring person to not only me, but every time I have seen him interact with my pets. He loves animals with not just love & cuddles, but with respect too. He is patient & attentive & is very much so a great listener. There are not a lot of people out there to have the true compassion to share with animals & treat them the right way. And Cameron is one of those people! You will have your mind at ease, just like how mine is every single time he has been there for me to take care of my pets with tons of love!”

North Austin pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sabrina was amazing at taking care of our dog! She accepted our job last minute and stayed at our house taking care of dog while we went on vacation. She was responsible, dependable, and I trusted her completely. Her communication was great and she seemed really invested in making sure our dog got the best care and attention while we were away. I would highly recommend and she will be the first person I ask next time we need a dog sitter!

Anne is an amazing sitter! She’s very responsive to my messages and always on time for our meet-ups. She’s easy to work with, communicates clearly, and makes the whole process smooth and stress-free. I truly appreciate her professionalism and care—highly recommended!

Raanan was very communicative before and during our sitter stay with 2 nine week old puppies. He played with them and kept them on their feeding schedule. Loved seeing the photos over the 2 days and he checked in upon arriving and leaving. We’d love to have him stay again!

Erica took great care of our dog while we were out of town. She really took to heart all of his needs and worries. He’s a fearful pup. She worked hard to put him at ease and communicate with us. She also took great care of our house. We will certainly rebook whenever the need arises. Thank you, Erica!

Julia was amazing with Yogi! She was reliable, caring, and kept me updated with photos and messages while I was away. I could tell Yogi was happy and comfortable the whole time. I highly recommend Julia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter!

Lauren exceeded my expectations when taking care of my cat and dog while I was away! My animals were clearly happy and comfortable about my return and Lauren kept me updated throughout my time away. She kept the house clean and even took out the trash for us, which was not asked! I would highly recommend Lauren for anyone needing their pets watches!

The house was spotless, the dogs were well cared for, little Sushi the guinea pig was well cared for. Jeremy even did little things he didn’t have to, like clean out the guinea pig cage and check on the dogs one last time before we got in from our late flight. Thank you for giving our pets a vacation while we were on vacation!
