Christine was an absolute pleasure to work with! She went above and beyond in taking care of my pup. Communication was fantastic, and she even brought along one of my dog's favorite tennis balls for a fun-filled trip to the dog park. The photos she sent showed just how much fun they were having. Christine even took the initiative to bring in a package for me without being asked. I highly recommend her services and will definitely be calling on her again. Five stars all the way!

Nicole was very attentive and detailed with her check ins. She provided plenty of information in her visits and took plenty of pictures of our dogs, her communication with us while we were away was excellent. She also took care of our home and cleaned up a couple of accidents while we were away. She is very caring and I would highly recommend her and she will be our first choice in the future should we need sitting services again. Thank you so much Nicole!

About: Hi! I’m someone who truly loves animals, especially dogs. I have an 11 month old puppy of my own, so I understand how much care, attention, and patience they need every day. I’ve also had other dogs in the past and regularly pet sit for friends and family, so I’m very comfortable with different breeds and personalities. I’m reliable, caring, and treat every dog like my own. I genuinely love spending time with them and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. So it is currently softball season for me I’m in High school. I can usually do the afternoons around 5 and later and on. Also some days I can even do 1-3 hours. It usually just depends on my softball schedule but am willing to work around schedules. I currently have 1 dog his name is Willy and he’s a Boston terrier. He’s very self sufficient and I enjoy helping him and teaching him things. I also dog sit my uncles dogs he has a frenchie and a xl bull dog. They are very high energy leveled dogs so it takes a little more but I can handle that because they’re just very friendly and want to play. I also used to take care of 2 bunnies for my aunt. I’m gentle, patient, cautious, and caring, when it comes to animals.

About: I've helped friends, family, neighbors, co workers and many more by dog sitting, walking, feeding, and giving medicine to their pets. Have experience with a wide range of breeds including Great Danes, Cane Corsos, Rottweiler, Frenchies, Cavaliers, German Shepherds and many different cats lol. Also have experience with houses that have both dogs and cats. Currently working a hybrid schedule so am able to work my schedule around by helping and visiting families who need that help with their pets. Have always been inquisitive and go the extra step by asking any specific needs and researching before hand the breed so I can be best prepared for the pet and give them the best care and attention possible.

I love that I found Rover so that our furrbabies can stay home and their routine is maintained while we are away. We highly recommend Miki!

About: Many many years experience taking care of pets and house sitting. I’ve looked after all kinds of pets: dogs, cats, birds, fish, and even some farm animals. I’m great at following instructions for the pets and household. Whether it’s giving medication or watering houseplants, I got you covered! I want to give the pet owner as much peace of mind as possible that their fur babies will be safe and happy. I’m available Sun-Sat. 7 days a week. I can also do overnights. Babysitting is my main job, but I’d love to switch to pet sitting full time! I try my best to care for pets as perfectly as possible. I’m great at following instructions for the animals and home. I will always spoil them too! I love giving lots of pets and hanging out on the couch with them. I will treat them like my own fur babies 😊!

About: I've comfortably taken care of pets with special needs, from blind pets to needing daily medicine. I can care for puppies all the way up to senior pets. I love to go on walks and can handle any situation. I’m a Texas Tech student with lots of free time, and I love caring for animals. My schedule is flexible, so I can easily work around your preferred times, from early mornings to late nights. I prioritize safety and comfort in every home. I follow the pet’s normal routine, keep a clean and calm environment, and make sure food, water, and medications, if needed, are handled correctly. I always double check doors, gates, and crates to ensure pets stay secure and safe as well. As the saying goes, I always aim to leave things better than how I found them.

About: I have always had pets in my life. When I was growing up, we would often adopt dogs and cats needing a loving home into our family! I also grew up sharing my home with adopted rabbits, birds, hamsters, and fish. I am a 20 year veteran teacher and would love to spend some of my summer time helping you take care of your fur babies. I'm coming to the end of my school year and have late afternoons into evenings free during the week, as well as full availability on Saturdays and Sundays. I can do earlier mornings during the week if needed, but only for drop ins for morning feedings. I have a senior dog and cat in my home, so I will only be offering services at client's homes. My services include walking your dog, playing catch, lap time with kitty cats, belly rubs and more! Although you will see photos of my family with our pets in my profile, I will be taking care of your pet(s) without any assistance from others, and would be the only one coming to your home to visit or stay with your pet.

About: I currently have 2 dogs - Morkies (Yorkies and Maltese mix). Pets have always been a part of my life. Family and friends tell me that I treat my dogs like they are people; I say that I just love them and they love me. You can be sure that I would love and care for your pets just as much. Please don't leave them home alone. Contact me and enjoy your time away from home - your pets will be in great hands with attentive care. My schedule is flexible which allows me the opportunity to be home during the day, and all nights. Please, no aggressive dogs. I will make sure that your dogs are comfortable and safe with me. I have an 8' fenced back yard, with security cameras. I enjoy being outside with your furbabies and will provide that extra level of security when they are running around in the backyard. I have hard floors for easy clean-up. I also provide extra blankets to keep your furbabies warm. I also have a separate eating area set up for your furbabies. I keep one extra crate, if needed when you bring your dog.

Nicole is absolutely outstanding! From start to finish, her communication was incredible, and she took amazing care of our dogs. I never had to worry for a second because I knew they were in the best hands. The photo updates were awesome, and it meant so much to see our dogs looking so happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Nicole went above and beyond, and it truly showed. We will only be booking Nicole moving forward.

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.
