“Kat entered my house with such a great attitude. My dogs took to her immediately. Once I saw that, I knew they were in good hands. Kat went above and beyond to make sure my boys were well fed and looked after. I highly recommend her services. You will not be disappointed!”
“If I could leave 10 stars I would. Upon booking request she immediately set up a meet and greet. She understood my anxiety of leaving my pets for the first time in a few years. Joyann was great at communicating & reporting updates about my pets, my home was safe in her care as well. In between drop in visits I could see my pets were happy and relaxed. This is my first experience not only using Rover but any sitter, Joyann made it possible for us to enjoy our vacation. Will definitely be booking for any future plans.”

About: I have had multiple pets since I was about 10 years old! I used to train and ride ponies and horses, but now I just focus on my dog, Miel. I took her in as a puppy and trained her during COVID. I have also previously taken care of weeks old puppies that required to be bottle fed multiple times a day and throughout the night. I am currently working full time and volunteering at a clinic after work (M/T/TH). I am available after work on Wednesdays, Fridays, and the weekends. I am also available during lunch (flexible hours) on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. I am also available for holidays! To ensure safety I approach pets slowly and give them a chance to come up to me first. I am also aware that some pets can have food restrictions so I would ask before providing or exposing them to any treats, toys, other personal items.
About: Always been a pet lover. My Specialty is senior care. I also foster dogs temporarily under a rescue program. Usually only 1 at a time. Available most weeks. I am usually home daily. Not working outside the home. When performing pet care, not far from home when running errands. Constantly checking on my dogs. I have a fenced yard. 1 fury chihuahua that usually keeps to herself, after a enthusiastic greeting. Have free rein in the house and yard.
About: I have owned dogs my whole life because I love their companionship. I love their entertaining nature and different personalities. I enjoy playing, training, walking, entertaining, talking, and singing with dogs. I just find them fascinating and amusing to watch and be in their company. I have owned plenty dogs. I have owned chichuahas, schnauzers, dobermans, pit bulls, bulldogs I dont have a preference. If I feel a connection I go with it. Every dog has a purpose and they are wonderful little gifts that one should not take for granted. They can be heroes when you least expect it and matter more than people care to think. I can promise to treat your dog like one of my own and spoil them like they deserve. Pet care fits right in my life because I have always owned or cared for a fur baby almost all my life. It just fits in because it is what I have been doing since I was a kid. I work from home so I am always with the babies. I make sure to stay attentive and keep the doggies entertained and busy. I play and talk to them constantly and treat them as little toddlers that dont listen and cant stay still.
About: I have years of professional veterinary experience working with animals, I am dog/cat CPR certified, and I have my own personal experience raising and training animals. I work full time doing dog/cat sitting so any job I get I will definitely make the time for, and I will be willing to dedicate my time to any job. I ensure that the pets are happy and always well taken care of, whether they need water, food, attention, toys, etc. I make sure they have it and are well taken care of.
About: I've taken care of both cats and dogs since I was little. I have raised and fostered puppies and kittens, and know how to administer basic aid. My home is pet friendly and safe for all fur-babies. I am very flexible with boarding times and setting up a meet and greet if needed. I am looking forward to meeting your fur babies! I have a fenced yard, a friendly chihuahua, and 3 cats who love to play with other animals. We have lots of toys, a cat tree, treats, and free feeding- unless you require specific meal times and special diets.
“Anyssa was great! She saved us from a last minute cancellation from the bog boarding place we had our dog scheduled at. They feel through 1 hour before our flight and Anyssa took our request last minute! Thank you! She was so patient with our dog, she warmed up to him, and left him a couple of treats to ensure he didn’t get stressed out too much. Definitely recommend Anyssa for any of your doggie needs!”
“Amanda did an amazing job with taking care of my fur babies. She was so kind and attentive while she was with them, she gave us updates and photos to let us know they were okay.”
“This was a very good visit. Kiara and I got to meet Katherine, and we loved her energy and cheerful spirit. She has a great deal of knowledge on dogs and their behavior, as well as first aid and special cares they might need. We’ll definitely be booking more days with her.”

I’m currently available with a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide reliable and attentive care throughout the week.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Pharr
Emma was great with my Buddy, calm and quiet but determined to make a friend. I could tell from the pictures that he was enjoying her visits. Emma was so easy to work for me as well and I never had a reason to stress over whether he was getting the attention he always wants.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Pharr stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
