“Robin is the best pet sitter/walker we have ever had. She is thoughtful and thorough and all our pets love her. She takes excellent pictures and we feel so much better when she checks in on our pets.”
About: Hello pet parents, I have four pets of my own, however they do not live with me. I’m going to school to become a vet and am close to finishing my bachelors degree in animal science, soon I hope to apply for graduate school. I have two male dogs and two female cats. I’ve worked at a vet clinic before and handled boarders and more! I can handle almost anything and I love all kinds of companions! Just message me for your sitting needs! I’m currently looking for a part time job while in college so aside from my school days on Tuesdays and Thursdays during the semester, I’m free. It truly depends on how the animal feels about me (a stranger) in their home. Ultimately, it’s their home… I'm simply a supervisor that’s there to cater to their needs, whatever that may be.
“Angel did amazing she took such good care of my cat and around the holidays which was very appreciated. Good communication, followed all instructions, would highly recommend her to anyone in need of pet care”
About: (Note to new clients: Please talk to me BEFORE you CONFIRM a booking so I can help you SAVE, thank you!) I am located in Killeen. I love small dogs more than anything else, and have been told by the people who met me and my dogs that I am the best dog owner based on how well cared for my little furry friends look. I can help you take care of your precious dogs so that you can have your mind at ease and enjoy your holidays 😊 I also provide flat rate spa service at $65 per small dog. This includes bathing, drying, eye and ear wash, nail trimming, haircut/deshedding, and styling. Thank you for your interest! I have many years of experience in taking care of both puppies and adults of small breeds. I will do everything within my power to ensure their safety and happiness. My house will be the cleanest and safest environment for your small dogs. No health hazards, no medium/big dogs, no cats, no loud noises, no human kids, no chaos. I do not even own a TV, and I play the piano to them sometimes. This is a calm, beautiful place with nice little doggy friends, cozy beds, fun toys, a cute outdoor playground, exciting activities, and lots of love and attention. (My strict cancellation policy is to make sure my potential clients are absolutely serious about sending their babies to my place, because my time is extremely valuable and 100% dedicated to the dogs in my care. I also cannot afford to have people changing their minds after taking up the spot of someone else who had really needed it. I hope you understand, thank you so much ❤️) 🌷$50 PER OVERNIGHT BOARDING SESSION INCLUDING 🌷 - Two meals and two treats a day. I offer a large collection of the highest quality foods and treats you can choose from, unless you want to bring your own. Food is served in separate slow feeding bowls.

“If you're debating between using Lilianais and someone else, go with her! She’s incredibly punctual, reliable, and always super accommodating. My schedule has been unpredictable lately, but she’s consistently gone above and beyond to help with last-minute changes and additions to the schedule. My dog absolutely adores her, and it’s clear how much she cares for the pets she looks after. Lilianais is an absolute gem—I can’t recommend her enough”

As a teacher and volleyball coach, caring for others is already a big part of my daily routine. My schedule is built around responsibility, consistency, and staying active, which makes pet care a natural fit. Whether it’s morning walks, playtime, feeding, or evening check-ins, I make sure every pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and care throughout the day.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 273 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Purmela. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Purmela. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
