About: I have fostered dogs in Oracle Arizona, trained collegues dogs, and watched their animals while on vacation! I simply love spending time with animals, they deserve the best treatment! Right now I am full time training and pet sitting. I can drive to you or meet somewhere conveinient, morning afternoon or evenings work. What is better than peace of mind while you are away? I treat every animal like I do my patients, as family; they are your fur babies afterall! I am comfortable with a variety of pet needs and environments, just ask!

About: I have had a dog ever since I was 9. She has become very sick in the last couple years so I have gained a lot of experience so working with senior babies will be no problem. I also got my dog Milo two years ago. I have had him since he was 8 weeks! Due to this I am well versed in puppies and training. However, ever since I was 15 I fostered dogs and cats with my parents and took it on alone after I moved to college. I actually fostered a kitten from the time he was also very much a baby (8 weeks) and I love cats!! I have fostered rescue dogs that have had a history of trauma or reactivity so I am well versed in how to approach those situations as well. I will treat your fur baby as I would my own, with love and patience, I just graduated college and have a lot of free time so my schedule is pretty open! If I cannot make a time I will be sure to message you! I walk my dog milo everyday depending if its too hot for him outside or not. My dog Coco cannot do walks but I do administer medication to her twice a day including eyedrops and pain medication. Milo gets fed twice a day as well as Coco. Both my dogs are let free in the house daily however they are both kenel trained as needed. I understand everyone has different preferences for their animals so I am willing to work with your needs!
“Meghan is absolutely wonderful!!! She took excellent care of our 4 legged babies.. she sent us updates and darling photos. I would highly recommend her!!! She is a very sweet and responsible young lady!!!”
About: Hi there! My name is Michael (pronounced Michelle) but I go by Niki! As a lifelong animal lover and beachside mama with a heart as big as a Great Dane, I go beyond basic dog sitting. I treat your fur baby like family—because they are. From belly rubs to pup-approved playlists, each visit is personalized, playful, and filled with love. Whether it’s morning zoomies, sunset strolls, or calming snuggles while you’re away, I create a safe, cozy, and joyful experience tailored to your pet’s unique personality. Your dog doesn’t just get a sitter—they get a best friend, a routine they can count on, and a home-away-from-home feeling every time. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze in—it’s woven into my daily life. As a mama with a flexible schedule, I’m up early and out walking when the world’s still quiet (and perfect for peaceful pup strolls). This isn’t just a job for me—it’s like a calling, a joy, and a part of who I am every single day. I have a big fenced in yard and a friendly, full of energy mini dachshund to keep your fur baby company! I can also easily crate your fur baby, if you request it.
About: My life was pets—dogs, cats, turtles, bunnies—you name it! I love volunteering with animals and never say no to cuddles or long walks. I’m experienced with pets of all sizes, from Chihuahuas to Great Danes, and I’ve administered medications both orally and topically. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities! I am open to the needs of you and your fur babies! I am a remote worker. A heads up and organized plan suits best! As a woman, I feel the need to have heightened security, whether that be cameras, multiple locks and full fencing. I am highly organized (and also pretty excited) to give my full attention to any at all for babies that I can home short term.
About: I've been a proud pet owner for the majority of my life. I regularly take care of dogs and cats of both friends and family alike, and I'm a self-proclaimed animal lover. I have all the time in the world to take care of your pets! I am planning on starting part-time work, but it will not get in the way of petsitting for you. When I come over I make sure to follow any instructions you set out for me, feeding your pets and giving them any medicine they need, plus giving them much-needed (and reciprocated) love and affection. I'll make sure to clean up after myself when I leave, nothing will be out of the ordinary when you come back.
About: T.ender L.oving C.are of your babies while you are away: long or short-term, drop-ins, one-time, or regular care. Overnights, daily, weekly, monthly, anxiety issues, senior care, special needs — all okay! I’ve had cats, dogs, and fish since I was young. I also have previous veterinary and emergency veterinary assistant experience. I’m an experienced aquarist, plant and garden caregiver, and have hand-raised baby birds. I adore fish, guinea pigs, chickens, reptiles and amphibians too, so no worries if you have multiple pets because I take excellent care of them all! My own babies include: Hestia my newest adopted kitty, a chihuahua named Kiwi, 6 pond goldfish, 4 chickens, a bunch of plants, and I dabble in aquaponics (growing fish and plants together). I’m mature, responsible, detailed, and trustworthy. Taking clients now until my schedule is filled. Hope to see you soon! Feeding, care, play, and love — all day every day! We’ll probably listen to some music and do some howling too! We’ll take field trips to the beach as often as possible. HOUSE SITTING: I have deep respect for my client’s pets and home as I am also a property owner and property manager. I’m mature and professional and I listen carefully to important client instructions. I assure excellent care. ONSITE: 4 apartments formerly Airbnb rentals now used as pet accommodations — and a huge, fenced in backyard. We have lots of room for plenty of pets that won’t be in contact with one another (so no worries about getting along with others). All pets must have current vaccinations and must be on prescription flea/tic meds.
About: I have cared for dogs and cats since I was around 8 years old. My experience ranges from bottle feeding and raising kittens/puppies to medicating seniors/special diets and providing palliative care. I just genuinely enjoy care taking and being around animals. I do have a full time job (6:30-3p) so weekdays I could visit/walk after 3pm. Weekends I am typically free so visits could happen multiple times a day or house sitting. Because of the amount of animals in my home, I would not be able to board animals at my own home but could easily manage to stay with your pet for routine sake if needed. Home visits would be a cinch.
About: I treat every pet like they’re my own, with love, patience, and attention to detail. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs who need a gentler pace and extra care. I’m comfortable giving medications, following special diets, and keeping up with unique routines. What sets me apart is how intentional I am, I pay attention to the little things and always make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I am currently a nursing student at Galveston College. I structure my study time in a way that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, love, and care throughout the day. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday checkins, or evening hangouts, I’m able to be present and consistent for your pet, and I genuinely enjoy the break and joy they bring to my routine. In my client’s home, I make sure to respect their space while keeping their pet’s routine as normal and comforting as possible. I follow any instructions closely, feeding schedules, walk times, medications, and even favorite toys or habits. I like to keep things calm, consistent, and low stress for the pets.
About: I’ve have an account on rover before i’ve got several years of experience with all types of dogs,cats,birds,chickens, even reptiles. For any animals need, special requirements and tons of love on your animals contact me! I am rover only! All day and night ready to go when ever! I am willing to spend lots of time with your animals. Awesome! I have tons of clients and people with very important animals I would never have someone who i didn’t know or trust knowing who houses i visit, stay or take care of. My business with you is between us and your furr baby.
About: I am very careful, cautious, friendly, and responsible. Your pets will not lack love. They will be fed, walked, and given water per your instructions. Your fur-babies will be in good hands. Monday to Sunday after 4:30pm 5:00pm let me know I have another job at mornings so I can take care your pets with much love I live by myself so can be easy for me take care your dog or I can visit your place and care your pets from your home

Michael L.
“Since first bringing my corgi Peach home, Michael has been an absolute game-changer. He’s not just a dog trainer—he deeply understands dog psychology, behavior, and emotional regulation in a way that’s rare to find. My last dog went to the routine "puppy classes" etc and it never helped- after witnessing Michael with Peach, it's obvious that the trainer's OWN training, knowledge, and experience is key to having success with your dog. Peach is high-energy, smart, and strong-willed (as most corgis are), and Michael was able to meet her energy with calm, firm, loving guidance from day one. His approach is grounded in respect, not fear—he uses non-abusive, emotionally attuned discipline to help dogs feel safe, seen, and understood. He taught me how to communicate with Peach in a way she actually gets—helping me lay a foundation of trust, structure, and emotional calm. I truly don’t know what kind of dog I would’ve had without him. Thanks to his training, Peach is now confident, grounded, and emotionally regulated, even in busy environments like NYC streets, airplanes, and subway platforms. If you’re looking for someone who can read a dog’s nervous system like a book, lead with kindness, and help bring out the absolute best in your pup, Michael is it! I cannot recommend him enough.”

Lexi M.Star Sitter
“I cannot recommend Lexi enough! She is an amazing caregiver who goes above and beyond for my dog. From the moment we met, Lexi was warm, attentive, and clearly experienced with pets. My dog instantly felt comfortable around her, which is a big deal since he can be quite shy. Lexi sent regular updates and photos, which made me feel at ease knowing my furry friend was in great hands. She truly cares about the pets she looks after, treating them like her own. I always feel confident leaving my dog with Lexi, knowing he will receive the best care possible. If you’re looking for someone reliable, loving, and trustworthy, Lexi is the one!”

Cally S.
“I would recommend Cally as a loving pet caregiver to anyone. She is one of the most loving people, & her love for animals is incomparable. My dog is in love with her & dances around my house with super zoomies as soon as she walks in the door, then proceeds to try and sit on her while she’s there. She loves all of her dogs & cats so much, but the way they love her back shows you everything you need to know. Cally is one of the only people I would ever trust to take care of my own dog. Once you meet Cally, you’ll instantly know she’s a great person & trust her to care for your babies anytime. She knows animals are family & are the most important part of people’s lives, because that’s what her animals are to her. I HIGHLY recommend her.”
Kennedy J.
“Kennedy is a caring, trustworthy, and attentive pet caregiver. She treats every animal like her own and goes above and beyond to make sure they feel safe and loved. My dogs love to see her every time she comes to watch them. It gives me great peace of mind that they are being taken care of by such a caring person. Highly recommend! —Casey P.”
