“We had such an amazing experience with Kassandra during our wedding weekend! 🐾🤍 Leaving our two babies while traveling for our wedding was something I was honestly a little nervous about, but from the very beginning, she made us feel completely at ease. She was attentive, caring, communicative, and treated our dogs like her own. We received updates and check-ins, which meant so much to us and allowed us to fully enjoy our wedding without constantly worrying about how our babies were doing. It was such a relief knowing they were safe, happy, loved, and well taken care of while we were away. Our dogs clearly had a great time and were comfortable with her, which says everything! I’m so grateful for the care and kindness she showed our babies during such a special weekend for us. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, dependable, and genuinely loving toward their pets. We will definitely be using her again! 🐶❤️ Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our babies! You gave us one less thing to worry about during our wedding weekend, and we truly appreciate it! 💍🐾”

About: I worked professionally as a pet dog trainer for approximately four years, where I helped owners improve obedience, leash manners, behavior issues, and overall structure for their dogs. This experience allowed me to work hands-on with a wide variety of breeds, temperaments, ages, and energy levels. In addition to my professional training background, I currently train and compete with my own dog, which keeps my handling skills sharp and gives me continued real-world experience with exercise routines, enrichment, and behavioral management. I am certified in pet first aid and CPR and always prioritize safety, consistency, and clear communication with owners. I am comfortable handling large breeds, high-drive dogs, reactive dogs, puppies, and dogs that require routine reinforcement of training. I aim to provide dependable, calm, and structured care so dogs feel secure and owners feel confident while they are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work a structured full-time schedule, which allows me to reliably provide morning, evening, and weekend care. I am active and used to exercising dogs regularly, so walks, drop-ins, and consistent routines are easy for me to maintain. I plan my week in advance and only accept bookings I can fully commit to, ensuring pets receive dependable and attentive care. Safety and structure are always my top priorities. With my background as a professional dog trainer and certification in pet first aid and CPR, I am comfortable handling dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and temperaments. I follow owner instructions closely regarding feeding, medication, crate routines, and exercise. I use proper leash handling, situational awareness, and calm leadership to keep dogs safe and secure both in my home and in clients’ homes.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds since I was a kid. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me for years to walk, feed, bathe, and watch their pets. I’m comfortable with puppies, seniors, shy dogs, and energetic pups. I make sure each pet gets personalized care, attention, and affection based on their unique needs. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of free time throughout the week to focus on caring for your pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends, daily walks, drop-ins, and flexible scheduling to match your pet’s routine. Your pet will always get consistent attention, playtime, and bathroom breaks. I provide a safe and comfortable environment with a fully fenced yard and two friendly dogs who love company. I always supervise outdoor time, follow any feeding or medication instructions carefully, and can crate your dog if you prefer or if it helps them feel secure. My goal is to make every pet feel at home and cared for.
“Jill took care of Lady our dog for 8 days. She did a three time check in for us, and did a wonderful job for us. We would highly recommend her and plan on using her in the future.”
“Ciera and Bam are amazing! They have taken care of our four kitties already several times when we have been traveling and they are just great, every time. :) We will certainly ask them again.”
About: I’ve loved dogs since I was a little girl. I’ve had the joy of caring for my own dogs, a big pup for 9 years and a little pup for 5 years and they’ve taught me so much about love, patience, responsibility, and companionship. I truly enjoy spending time with dogs, whether it’s playing fetch, going on walks, cuddling, or simply keeping them company. Caring for dogs has also taught me what it means to be a mother to be patient, attentive, and always make sure they feel safe and loved. When your dog stays with me, I’ll treat them with the same love, care, and attention I give my own. I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I work from home and my schedules are pretty flexible. I will have plenty of time to play with your fur babies and take them on a walk too. I am home all days a week with my two fur babies We let out dogs on furnitures, your pets can lounge and get comfortable anywhere they want to. We have a big fenced backyard. I can give them potty breaks as much as they need. Let me know about any food/treat preferences, allergies, or any additional information you feel is necessary. I can’t wait to treat your dogs as my own. I can pick up your babies if you have a busy schedule . Just $10 more for both pick up and drop off.
About: I’ve been watching animals for ~8 years now, but I’ve had my own animals since birth! I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, bunnies, guinea pigs, cows, chickens, goats, fish, and more. Family friends and neighbors rely on me for help with their animals. I work a full time job, but am available in the mornings, evenings, weekends, and for overnights! I will always work to make time for your animals! I do drop ins and stay with pets frequently in other peoples home. I am consistent with my care and love to meet new animals.
About: I have cared for dogs for many years and have been a dog lover all of my life. I have three animals ( 2 cats and a dog) who are very loving and caring. If this so happens to be a problem for an owner I have the ability to move my animals in order to care for the owner's dog/dogs. I would walk them everyday because I understand the importance of having daily exercise. Along with this, dog owners will see how happy their dog will be after spending hours with me. There will be plenty of opportunities to have fun with toys and special treats would be in store for those who are well-behaved. I hope that dog owner's will allow me to love their pets just as much as they do. I usually work only four hours a day Monday-Friday which gives me plenty of flexibility to help you with any doggy needs like walks, daycare, etc. I don’t usually go out of town for holidays so I am available during those times. I have an apartment which has a dog park allowing them to roam freely. Also, I live in walking distant to several parks which is always a plus for any dog. In addition, I am a baker who does make organic dog treats for each time the dog is with me. This is dependent on if the owner allows this.
“Linda is an amazing cat sitter! She helped us out when we were in a pinch, and we’re so grateful she was able to care for our cats. One of our cats is diabetic and requires insulin twice a day, and Linda handled everything with such confidence and care since she also has experience caring for a diabetic cat of her own. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our cats were in such capable hands. She kept us updated, treated our cats like they were her own, and went above and beyond. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate pet sitter!”

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 12, friends and family relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their dogs. I've taken care of puppies and love all sorts of animals even reptiles! I have also worked professionally as a dog bather so if you would also like your fur baby to get a bath or if they are good for nail trims then I can help. I'm available anytime and day I'm needed to play with puppies or spend time with your dog or cat, walk them or even just to spend time with them. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow the pet’s regular schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications they may need. I spend quality time with them so they feel safe and cared for while their owner is away, whether that means playing, giving attention, or just keeping them company.
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my hands-on experience with animals of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I’m comfortable caring for energetic puppies who need consistent training, as well as senior pets who require gentle handling, medication, and extra patience. I pride myself on reading each animal’s body language, building trust quickly, and tailoring my care to their unique needs—whether that’s reinforcing good habits, providing enrichment, or offering calm companionship. Pet care fits naturally into my college routine—I plan my class schedule and study time around feeding, walks, and play so pets always get reliable, focused attention. In my home, pets get a safe, comfortable space with plenty of play, walks, and snuggles. In my clients’ homes, I follow their routines closely—feeding, exercising, and giving attention just like they would—so pets feel secure and cared for in their familiar environment.
About: I love animals and I would love to make yours feel loved and safe when you can’t be there yourself. You will not be disappointed! I can accommodate your schedule! Long term or short term, I can come to them while you are away. I can help ease your worries! I will stand in for you while you are away and do things your way! Trust me with your pets while you can’t be there
About: I have always had some type of pet ever since I was little, whether that be dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, sheep, goats, you name it! I love animals and have always been entrusted to be the main caretaker of all my family pets and have learned all different tips and tricks to make sure every animal is loved and cared for while their fur parents are away. I worked in the UC Davis Animal Science Department as a student resident, which meant I lived in a barn with animals 24/7! I have been taught by UC Davis veterinarians how to administer treatments and medicines, and have always been the first to call from my friends who need someone to take care of their pets while they are away. I am comfortable with active dogs, puppies, couch potatoes, or anything that just needs a cuddle every now and then. I have a lot of experience with bully breeds and high-maintenance coats, especially bulldogs, I've had 3 as family dogs! I just love dogs and cats and can assure you that I will make sure your loved one gets the care, attention, and love they deserve. I work with livestock animals and have raised sheep, goats, and cattle for about 7 years now. I am comfortable with horses and any other large animals you may have. I can also provide a helping hand around a ranch or farm if needed and trained to work in all different conditions. If you have a flock of chickens that need to get fed, pens to be mucked while you are away, or any small chores I would love to discuss different rates to ensure that all your animals are cared for! I am a current grad student at Tech and a massive animal lover and have a relatively flexible schedule to fit your needs. I am available most mornings and all evenings, and since I am from California, I usually stay around Lubbock for most major holidays. I am willing to bring your furry friends to my home or house sit! I am also willing to provide transportation to dog parks if needed. While I am at your home, however, I ask that I have access to internet access for overnight stays. Other than that, I am very flexible in terms of living arrangements, I have experience with crate training if that is what your family practices. I am a vigilant, responsible individual who will provide the best of care for your family.
About: I have been pet sitting for about 2 years, but it is my favorite side job! I love animals of all kinds and sizes and have been trusted to stay in homes to take care of people’s beloved family members, and their home. I’m currently an elementary school teacher at Wolffarth Elementary in North Lubbock. Depending on what area I am in, I will usually leave with enough time to get to work by 7am. I cannot leave for lunch as I sadly only have 30 minutes, but I am done by 4 every day. This makes it easy to spend the evening with them and I won’t have different hours every day - routine is great for pets! I also share holidays with students so I am pretty available for sitting jobs at those times. While my apartment is a 1 bedroom, it is cozy and great for lower energy dogs. I have plenty of space for them to lay out and they stay in the air conditioning all day. For more active pets, I live right next to a middle school with a paved track for walking, and I am close to a park for dogs who love to run and play fetch!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 409 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Ransom Canyon. 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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
