“Min Q. went above and beyond taking care of my Beaux. She was very nice and kept me up to date with updates daily. i would highly recommend her services,”
About: I have experience caring for dogs through friends, family, and personal experience. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, administering basic care, and giving plenty of love and attention. I’m always eager to learn your dog’s unique needs and preferences. I work from home on Thursdays and Fridays and have most weekends free, allowing me to provide attentive, loving care and plenty of quality time for your fur babies When babysitting pets in my home, I have a fully fenced backyard where they can safely go outside when needed, and I live in a great neighborhood for walks. I always follow the pet’s routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care.
“Love having Skylar watch our girls! She’s so reliable and communicative, and I’m always grateful she can help out last minute. Will be a return customer many more times!”
“Miki watched over my three cats for three weeks while I was traveling. I was initially worried about leaving my cats in the hands of someone I didn’t know for so long, but Miki was simply amazing. Previously, one of my three cats would hide from visitors, but Miki was able to get her to socialize on day one. She clearly loves animals, which was evident in her updates, and would always leave us fun details of the social dynamics of the cats that let us knew that she was really paying attention and getting to know them. When I returned, the house was perfectly cared for and the cats were incredibly happy! I will gladly book with her again!”
About: Unfortunately, the pictures in my profile are somewhat misleading as my Molly passed away in January 2025. I miss her so much! But, thankfully, Molly taught me a lot about doggie care! As a retired data analyst and lifelong animal lover, I bring a rare blend of reliability, attention to detail, and genuine care to every pet I meet. I’m home full-time, which means your pet gets consistent, focused attention—no juggling or distractions. I specialize in: - 🐶 Senior pet care — I’m patient, gentle, and experienced with older dogs who need a slower pace, medication routines, or just a cozy companion. - 🐾 Puppy training basics — I help reinforce potty routines with calm consistency and positive reinforcement. - 🧠 Behavior tracking — My background in data means I notice patterns quickly. If your pet’s eating, sleeping, or behavior shifts, I’ll catch it early and keep you informed. I treat every pet like family—whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs structured play or a shy senior who just wants a quiet cuddle. My home is calm, clean, and safe, and I’m always happy to tailor care to your pet’s unique needs. Im newly retired and my only routine is going to the gym in the morning. But, rest assured, your pet won't ever be alone...my husband is here and works from home. I’m a retired professional who’s home full-time, which means your pet gets consistent, attentive care in a calm, secure setting. My home in Richardson is quiet, clean, and pet-friendly—with one sweet resident cat who’s mellow and used to sharing space. If your dog or cat isn't though, Jaz can always go to my mother-in-laws studio attached to our house if necessary. For dogs who enjoy outdoor time, I have a fully fenced backyard with a pool. I supervise all outdoor play closely and never allow unsupervised access to the pool area. Safety is always my top priority—whether it’s monitoring interactions, keeping routines consistent, or ensuring your pet feels comfortable and secure. In your home, I follow your instructions to the letter—respecting your space, keeping things tidy, and maintaining your pet’s familiar environment. I’m experienced with medication routines, senior care, and behavior tracking, and I always provide updates so you know exactly how your pet is doing. Whether it’s a playful pup, a shy senior, or a curious cat, I tailor my care to fit their personality and needs—because every pet deserves to feel safe, seen, and loved.
“Nicole did an amazing job taking care of our 3 cats while we were away. She was super thorough with her care and reports, and so attentive to my extra-needy guy. My shy guy even warmed up to her. I would not hesitate to book Nicole again.”
About: I have been around animals before I could even walk. I have fostered, doggie/kitty sat for many, and raised many myself. I have a college student availability. I have open availability on weekends. Because of school, I am available Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday before 2 pm. I am flexible as long as we can successfully communicate. I believe communication is key for the safety and wellbeing of your furry friend. A set schedule/ list of care would be very much appreciated.
“Was agreeable to doing a drop in for our dog short notice when our other sitter couldn’t. Appreciated her communication with me on how the drop in went. Sent photos of their time together :)”
“Karina did an awesome job! She was reliable and trustworthy coming to our home to check on our boys and play with them while we were out of town. We will be using her again!!”

“Sebnem took amazing care of our cats while we were away. She went above and beyond to make sure our cats were comfortable and provided lots of photo/video updates which really helped ease the stress of being away from our fur babies. I would 100% re-book with Sebnem for future cat sitting.”
Park North pet parents share their Rover experiences
Gracen took amazing care of our dog while we were away and truly went above and beyond. Communication was great, and our pup was happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved when we got home! We felt completely at ease the entire time. We’ll definitely be booking with Gracen again!
First time having Min take care of our Dog Ollie. Min was on time and sent many photos and video while attending to our dog. She took the time to clean up some excited pee from the floor and made sure the dog had the chance to drink water after playing outside and let Ollie back outside to assure he was able to use the bathroom one more time before leaving. We are extremely happy with Min and would recommend her as we will ask her to come back. Thank you, Min.
We recently went on a three-day international trip and needed someone truly trustworthy to look after our cat. We were fortunate enough to find Vicki, and I can confidently say she exceeded every expectation we had. From the very beginning, her communication was clear, professional, and thoughtful. She asked the right questions, paid attention to every detail, and instantly gave us peace of mind. While we were away, Vicki cared for our cat with a level of dedication and kindness that is rare to find. She didn’t just “check in” on him—she genuinely spent time with him, comforted him, played with him, and made sure he felt safe and loved in our absence. Her updates were consistent, detailed, and incredibly reassuring. Each photo and message reflected how much she truly cares about animals. When we came back home, we could immediately see the difference. Our cat was calm, happy, and completely relaxed—almost as if we had never left. In fact, over the past few days, we can tell he genuinely misses Vicki and keeps looking toward the door, waiting for her to walk in again. It’s rare for him to bond with someone new so quickly, and that alone says everything about the level of comfort and trust she created. To be honest, we feel like we’ve found a new member of our family in Vicki. Her kindness, reliability, professionalism, and genuine love for animals make her an exceptional caregiver. Knowing that our cat was in such capable and loving hands allowed us to enjoy our trip without worry. I would recommend Vicki to anyone on Rover who wants true peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone responsible, compassionate, and truly devoted to the well-being of your pet, Vicki is absolutely the person you want. We are so grateful for her and will definitely be booking with her again.
