“Andria was amazing!!! I had a few issues and last minute changes and she worked with me no matter what! it’s hard to leave my baby and I can tell how much fun he had with her. She definitely gave me a peace of mind and always sent pictures. I recommend her 100% if you want someone trustworthy and loving to your baby! Andria thank you again! will definitely be re booking”


“Addison was awesome! She had great communication, friendly, and sent lots of pictures and videos of Joji having a blast so I had no worries. Joji loved her and I would definitely recommend Addison to anyone looking to book with her!”


“Erica is the best! She is so communicative and my cat Max adores her. I feel so good knowing that she is visiting with him when I am on a trip, I always know that he will be well taken care of. Her love of animals shines through and I can tell that she enjoys seeing Max as much as he enjoys seeing her. Erica is my go-to when I need a cat sitter!!”


“We’ve’r used Courtney now twice during vacations and she’s been amazing both times! Our two longhaired dachshund boys love her and we feel great knowing she spends the full 30 min with them for drop in visits. We enjoy seeing the pictures she sends us and appreciate the brief updates about how they fared during her visit. Would definitely recommend her to friends and family, we’re thankful for her attentive stop ins!”



“Genniver was amazing! All three of my dogs loved her very much. My German Shepherd who is usually skeptical of strangers warmed up to her quickly. She was very attentive and Informative and gave me great updates and pictures and videos of my pups while I was away on vacation which kept me with no worries. She gave them excellent care! I highly recommend her!”


“I hired John to take care of my two Shih Tzus while I was away for training, and I was genuinely impressed. He went above and beyond sending lots of pictures and thorough updates after each visit, which I really looked forward to. It made being away from my pups so much easier, knowing they were in such good hands. What stood out the most was how at ease my dogs were with him. They looked happy, calm, and completely themselves in every photo. That kind of comfort doesn’t come easily with just anyone. John clearly connects with animals in a thoughtful and respectful way, and it showed in every interaction. I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again, and I truly appreciate the care he gave my girls. John, you rock!”



“Mandy always takes such good care of our fur babies! They get so excited when she comes to visit. We appreciate the daily updates and photos, plus the effort to play with and cuddle with our pups when we are gone. Communication is always very prompt and Mandy’s flexibility to add an extra visit when flights are delayed is much appreciated.”


“EXCELLENT -- Katherine is wonderful! Our dog needed meds every 12 hours, she was prompt, conscientious, and sent lots of videos/photos. Our pets were definitely in very capable hands with her!”

“Jessica fulfilled a last minute request for me to drop in on Bella. She was responsive and provided excellent service. She also provided several pictures. I would use her again!”


“Great with our pups. Cole play with our pups every visit n dedicated extra time to our pups Milo and coco love every visit. Thank you for taking care of our pups I would recommend.”


“Monica is great with our timid yet hyper rescue pup! Always sends pictures and videos. Very prompt, respectful and trustworthy. We are a repeat client!!”


About: I have always been an animal lover but I really started getting into taking care of animals in high school. My first job was at Country Friends Vet Clinic. During that time I got my CVA 1 certification(certified veterinary assistant) and I ended up working for them until I graduated high school(an amazing 2 1/2 years!). During my high school years I adopted two cockatiels named Ollie and Speckles. They became my bestest little friends. It was then that I realized I loved taking care of pets. My senior year of high school I also ended up adopting a Leopard Gecko I named Hikari! She loves watching top gun😂. I then moved out to college and got my Bachelor’s Degree while working as an Operating Room technician at Texas A&M Small Animal Hospital. I also recently(Nov. 2024) earned my RECOVER Basic Life Support Certification. It was in college that I got my first pup, Atreides. She was my soul dog and I loved her to bits. Three years later I adopted my Belgian Malinos, Azula, to give her a friend. I also found out that I love training dogs and so I spend most of my free time seeing what crazy things I can teach my pups! After Atreides passed, I adopted another German Shepherd in honor of her, a puppy named Ashoka. She is my little shadow and always makes sure I’m taken care of. All of this is to say I have tons of experience with high energy pups and I don’t forget the small animals! I am a full time college student so during the school year I might have a little more limited of a schedule but if I’m free I’ll definitely be able to swing by to check on your fur babies! I will also have more time on weekends to care for your pets. I am a big fan of always having something stimulating for your pet to do! Whether that is playing with toys, doing enrichment toys, or training basic obedience I like to make sure I am doing something exciting with your pet! With all that play I always remember to provide water in this Texas heat. While taking care of your fur babies I will feed, walk, play and clean up after them so you don’t have to worry when you are away! I also love exotics!(I have two cockatiels and a leopard gecko)

“So thoughtful and thorough!”


“Matt was awesome! He was super communicative about how our pets were doing and was able to come at the last minute when our previously scheduled sitter had an emergency.”


“This is the second time that Alexander has watched Buddy, and the work he put into getting Buddy to know him the first time around was reflected immediately in Buddy's comfort around Alexander despite a month between sittings. Alexander is truly the best and I would recommend him to anyone!”



“We were looking to board our dogs but the expense was above our budget and because our three pups can be a handful sometimes and are not very sociable boarding was out. Someone told me to check out Rover for a house sitter to watch our dogs in our house. We were skeptical at first because we never heard of Rover and house sitting dogs. Anyway I searched the adds on Rover and found Julie, she had lots of 5 star reviews, many return customers and lived somewhat close to us. I got in contact with her and she stopped by to say hello and set up an hour to meet and greet our dogs. She was right on time and very confident she would have no problems with our dogs, turns out she was right. She handled our dogs like the seasoned professional she is, it was very impressive. we're very thankful to find her and I would certainly recommend her to anyone looking for an alternative to boarding, we intend on using her many times in the future”


“Sophie was absolutely wonderful with Goose! She was very caring, attentive, and clearly has a natural love for animals. I felt at ease knowing he was in such good hands while I was away. I truly appreciated her thoughtful updates and the way she took the time to make Goose feel safe and comfortable. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who genuinely cares!”


“Delta is a wonderful sitter and my dogs loved her. She took such great care of them while I was out of town. I would highly recommend her.”
