“First time to have Karen come stay in our house with our two Cockapoos. She is conscientious and took good care of our dogs, sending photos daily and following the schedule/activities that we had requested.”
2. Samantha H.
“Samantha did a great job with our young puppy and our anxious dog. She attended to their needs and kept us updated throughout. It was the first time we left our doggies with a service, so we were nervous. She put us at ease. Would highly recommend Samantha!”
3. Riley H.
“Riley watched my three fur babies while I went out to town for the weekend, while I was gone I got pictures daily them and messages letting me know how things were going. When i came home..my babies actually seemed like the wanted to see her over me! I highly recommend her for all your pet care , I will definitely be booking her in the future!”
4. Megan E.
“Megan stayed at our home to take care of our puppy, Rose. She was a great sitter, left our house very clean, and was a superb communicator throughout everything. We highly recommend her, and we look forward to her taking care of Rose later this month.”
5. Christina G.
“Christina does a wonderful job with my fur babies and house! She takes care of my two dogs and four cats and she always goes above and beyond. 10/10 recommend her for anyone who wants a trustworthy sitter who loves and cares for my animals as I do!”
6. Sabryna S.
“I was a first timer using a pet and house sitter. Rover came highly recommended by my son and a sister-in-law. My Sophie is old, partially blind and deaf, and has separation anxiety. I needed someone to stay here with her full time. We interviewed a few people and then met Sabryna. She was awesome. Great with Sophie. Very kind and sweet person. Sophie loved her. Sabryna sent us a bunch of very cute photos and stayed in touch while we went out of town. She is trustworthy, honest, and an excellent communicator. We will use her again.”
7. Maria H.

10. brooklyn r.
“Brooklyn has watched my Rylee girl on multiple occasions and she has become a part of our family! Rylee loves Brook and can’t wait to see her! Thank you Rover and thank you Brooklyn!”
11. Madalyn G.
“Madalyn sent many pictures and my girls loved her - even my shy girl that takes a minute to warm up. She took her time with her and she was snuggling with her before we knew it!! She even helped to tidy up my home and wash the sheets and blankets before I arrived. She will be my go-to for any future trips!”
12. Julie P.
“To best describe Julie, I should start by letting you all know I have her nicknamed “Snow White” in my phone and often send her Snow White gifs to communicate her Disney-princess-level talent with animals! It would seem unbelievably magical if I hadn’t witnessed it so many times, if we are ever out I can guarantee Julie will be the first to make friends with any animal we see and make sure they find their owners no matter what it takes. She loves animals and feels a personal responsibility to care for them. She is responsible, a good communicator, and punctual. You won’t be sorry you’ve chosen her, your pet will feel very loved and adored!”
13. Jocelyn C.
“Awesome Job!!! Usually my Rex goes to a boarder but because of my flight times he would have had to be there for 9 days and that was just too expensive and long. Also, Rex always comes back and just sleeps for a day from the anxiety and smells horrible so I really wanted him to be able to stay home with his kitty brothers. Jocelyn came to meet Rex and everything went well so we set it up. Jocelyn went above and beyond taking care of my babies. Everyone was happy and healthy when I got home and it was such a relief for me. Will for sure be hiring Jocelyn in the future! Thanks so much!”
14. Noemi R.
“This has been our second time with Noemi and we are so happy with her being here with the dogs! They are content with her so what more could we ask for? Highly recommend.”
15. Kirsten T.
“Kirsten is very reliable and assertive when it comes to taking care of pets. She took care of my three dogs when I went on a trip a couple of weeks ago. She followed all tasks that were asked of her without any problems. I definitely recommend her services.”
16. Juanita R.
“Juanita is an excellent individual with pets. She god above and beyond when caring for you loved fur babies. My pets always return happy and really tired from all the activities they engage in. Super safe and friendly individual.”
17. Kaitlyn B.
“Kaitlyn went above and beyond for our puppers. We really appreciate everything she did. Would hire her again in a heartbeat!!! Tex and Blue say thanks so much xoxo ? ❤️”
18. Maria L.
“Maria has cared for our Cockapoo several times over the years. She is a caring person and very responsible. Your dog will be in good hands with Maria. The whole family enjoys playing with and caring for their family pet. Her daughters will love to play with your dog, too! They provide loving and gentle care.”

I hope to provide you peace of mind while away! I am a junior, a pre-medicine college student at TAMUCC so my avaliability revolves around my class schedule. I am free mornings before class (11am) & evenings after 5pm during the week day. Weekends are much more flexible with my schedule. I also have a gap during my class day to provide a drop in or walk if need be (If you are located in Corpus Christi or Portland). I can provide drop ins, overnight stays, & walks in the clients home. I have done in home sitting for many families. I will be happy to hang with your pups in your home during the day & overnight if preferred.
