“Once again Heather delivered amazing care to my two dogs while I was away. She will always be my top choice dog sitter. She's simply the best.”
“Eboni handled my pets very well! I have a mini pig who is constantly testing and needs lots of attention and firm instruction and Eboni handled it very well and I came home to a very happy pig. She also cared for my chickens well. Eboni is a quick learner and respects the rules you have for your pets and your home and gives them lots of love and attention. She is also someone I was very comfortable leaving alone in my home and left things neat and clean after a few days pet sitting. I highly recommend her.”
“Lana was so amazing with my babies! She kept me updated at all times and was super responsive and professional. I’ve never booked a sitter to sit in my home before, so I was extremely nervous. She made me feel more than comfortable being in my home caring for my boys. I will definitely book with her again!”
“Debbie was fantastic. She house sat and watched our two larger (and older) dogs. The girls were well cared for with medication and being spoiled. She sent regular updates and asked great questions before staying. Highly recommend Debbie!”
“Lauren was absolutely fantastic! Our dogs loved her immediately and we knew they were in great hands while we were away. She took great care of our home and our dogs. We will definitely be repeat clients in the future!”

“Latisha was fantastic! She watched over our two pups for a weekend in our home. She sent frequent updates and photos. She took the time to help our anxious dog acclimate to her being there. The house was tidy when we arrived home. I will definitely use her again!”
“Mia did an excellent job taking care of our two dogs and cat for our longest trip to date (10 days/9 nights). She will definitely be our go-to house & pet sitter going forward. Her experience with all size animals, including large dog breeds, gave us peace of mind on our vacation. You can rest assured Mia will follow all instructions to a tee and provide updates and pictures throughout.”
“Kyle was a fantastic dog-sitter! He was on-time, attentive, and quick to respond when booking a meet'n'greet, and the official date of his stay.

“Jasmine gave us ultimate peace of mind while on vacation. The dogs loved her as soon as she met them. While we were away, she sent us pictures and updates on how the dogs were doing through the week. She house sat them and before she left she swept and disinfected everything so we came home to a clean and fresh smelling home. She was a pleasure to meet and easy to deal with. BIG thank you Jasmine!”

About: My journey with animals started when I was a kid; I remember my very first dog. He was a lab mix, and his name was Dopey. He was indeed dopey, and I loved him more for it. From the moment I met him, I knew I wanted to always be around animals. My professional career began in 2019 as a bather at a common Petstore. I worked there for a few months before deciding I wanted a more personal environment to care for the animals and get quality time with them, so I left corporate to work for mom and pop grooming salons, daycares and boarding facilities. To gain more knowledge to help care for the animals, I attended Animal Behavior College in Vet Assistance and obtained my Animal CPR certification. With that in hand, I decided to work in a vet office to help further educatemyself for the animals. While working at a Vet Office, I became a Lead Bather and quickly gravitated toward special needs, aggressive and elderly pups. I currently work at a mom and pop grooming Salon in Allen, Tx. I'm working part-time at a grooming salon, so I have plenty of availability to work with. I have early morning availability for walks and home visits and availability after 3:30pm. I have 2 furniture kennels and a pop up kennel. I have multiple running water fountains through my home. I have two dogs of my own, who are walked 4 to 5 times a day. We tend to do short walks in grass during the heated afternoons.
“Jayla was a fantastic sitter and went above and beyond to ensure my dogs were comfortable, especially with my extremely skittish pup that can take a while to warm up to anyone. She was very consistent with overall communication, prior to and during her stay. We’re excited to have her sit again!”
About: I've owned dogs all my life. A home is not a home if you don't have paw pals. If I care for your baby I will take care of him as if he were mine. They will go for walks everyday. We will play fetch. I also have a fenced yard so they will be safe and well taken care of. Your pet will not be bored. I have one dog myself and she is solid rotten. I do work but, I do 3 days on 4 days off. My son is home during the day, and he's off on weekends. He loves to play with the dogs, and he also helps walk the dogs when needed. 😍 Your baby will go for walks everyday. We will play fetch.

“Cristina did a great job watching my new dog Dolly when I went out of town for a week just two weeks after adopting my 7-month-old shelter dog. Dolly was still figuring out my house and yard and cat, Lulu. Christina helped with Dolly’s training and kept me updated with news and progress. I did not worry about my pets while I enjoyed visiting my new twin grand daughters. Thanks, Cristina!”

“Manolita is a loving dog caregiver. She has two Chihuahua‘s of her own and they are her princesses. She takes care of them like she would her own children.

I would recommend her to any loveing pet owner.”

Oaks pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sydnie was great! Our boys were glued to her while we were gone. She was very attentive and even vacuumed the house before we got home ❤️
Our dogs fell in love with Nathan right from the start. He was great taking them out for walks, feeding them, playing ball with them, and cuddling with them. We will definitely use Nathan again!
Marisol did a fantastic job taking care of my golden doodle, who can be a little particular when it comes to people. She was patient, kind, and made him feel comfortable right away. She sent daily updates with pictures. I came home to a happy pup and a tidy house — couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend her!
When Alexis came to meet Kissie she was so friendly and Kissie loved her immediately! When we left for our trip I was so worried because she was just 7 months old, but Alexis texted me everyday with pictures and information. She and Alexis's dog Luka got a long so well and became best friends. She was so good to her! We will be asking her to watch Kissie from now on!
Monica was great! She responded quickly and kept me posted throughout her stay. She was so sweet and would definitely book her again.
Clint was the best. He kept us updated daily about our very neurotic and needy hound and from everything we can tell kept him happy and calm while we were away for two weeks! Clint was always very responsive and we were always comfortable that everything was handled well and with care. Thank you very much Clint!
