“Kendall watched our pups for 9 days in our house while we were away and did an amazing job. The pups took to her immediately and even Rosie our trouble pom warmed up to her almost right away. Plenty of pictures and very responsive- the whole trip we felt our pups were in good hands. The house was impeccable when we returned too, would definitely book her again.”

“Sandi was absolutely phenomenal! She took amazing care of my two cats while I was away and went above and beyond in every possible way. My cats loved her, and I could tell how comfortable and well cared for they were the entire time. She followed their routine perfectly, handled my one cat’s medication with care, and was so thorough with everything she did. On top of that, she even cleaned my home better than I do and built a litter box enclosure for me! I felt completely at peace during my trip knowing they were in her hands. If you’re on the fence about booking her, don’t hesitate, you absolutely should. She’s responsible, compassionate, and incredibly good at what she does. I’ll definitely be hiring her again and recommending her to anyone who needs a trustworthy pet sitter.”

She would send us pictures numerous times during the day with her daily interactions that made us feel reassured that they were being well taken care of. She’s a sweet and nurturing person that you know that your fur babies are being well taken care of. The house was very clean and the girls were well picked up after.”

About: I had pets growing up and for most of my adult life. While I do not currently have any of my own, I can offer care and attention with a flexible schedule to help others out when they are busy and need a little extra help caring for their furry friends. I have a flexible schedule working in the food and beverage industry. I like to plan and have things set on the calendar with advance notice whenever possible but I do also understand that sometimes last minute things come up. When I had pets of my own, they were additional family members who were often spoiled with much love and attention. While being respectful of another’s home and their rules, I would still care for their pet as if they were my own, possibly spoiled with too much attention.

About: Hi! My name is Emi. I grew up in a home full of animals—my dad is a huge animal lover, so we always had dogs and cats in our house. Being surrounded by so many animals is probably why I developed such a deep love for them myself. I have a 5-year-old Samoyed named Noah, and we would absolutely love the chance to meet your baby and become friends 😊 Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions—I’d be happy to connect and will respond as soon as I can! I work Monday through Friday, 9–5, but since my position is fully remote, I have plenty of flexibility to give your baby the attention and care they need throughout the day. I live in an apartment located in a safe, walkable neighborhood, so your baby will get plenty of fresh air and nice strolls. I also have a sweet “little polar bear” of my own — my 5-year-old Samoyed — and we’ll make sure your baby feels loved and well-companioned the entire time 💕

“Shrav was excellent! She took care of our senior American bulldog, Caesar, for about a week while we were away and we never once worried about his wellbeing. She was very communicative throughout her stay - sending multiple videos of Caesar a day, and asking all the right questions. She cared for Caesar like her own and respected our space as well - came back to a happy boy and our place just as we left it. Would definitely book her again.”

About: Hey howdy! My name is Delaney and I am a master's student and ballroom dancer here in Houston! I have loved taking care of animals ever since my family welcomed our senior cat into our home when I was 14 years old. She had spent two months in the forest on her own before making her way to my front porch, and the rest is history. I can't wait to meet and take care of your furry friends - they're my favorite study buddies! I am most routinely available on Friday nights and weekends. My schedule throughout the week fluctuates based on my clinical assignments, course schedule, and extracurricular activity meetings. If you are in need of services on weekdays I am happy to discuss them on a case by case basis! I take great care to ensure the spaces and homes I am welcomed into are well kept and that I care for the spaces of clients as if it were my own! My goal is to maintain your pets feeling of safety and security within their home environment. I prefer to have a walkthrough of the space as well before the first at-home sit but understand that this may not always be feasible. Along with information about your pet, it is also helpful to know if there are any off-limits areas in your home or potential safety hazards, so please let me know about these as well! Please also provide me with emergency contact information for you, or your veterinarian should it be needed.

Melissa did a fantastic job taking care of our furbabies while we were overseas and communicated with us daily to send us pictures and give us updates on their day. We previously had always had family house and pet sit for us while we were away, but due to a medical issue, we were left trying to find someone we felt comfortable with given the long time away as well as the fact that our 3 dogs (and less so 2 cats) can be a bit of a handful. We also came home to a clean and organized house which was a fantastic way to return. We now have comfort knowing we have someone trustworthy and caring nearby whenever we need her.

Nathalie was a wonderful sitter for my dog, Gigi! She stepped in on fairly short notice when I needed an emergency sitter, and I really appreciated her willingness to come over as soon as possible to make sure it was a good fit. Throughout the week, Nathalie was extremely communicative and sent tons of updates and photos, so I always knew how Gigi was doing. She took Gigi for walks, followed all of my instructions perfectly, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of. On top of caring for Gigi, she also watered my plants, put the sheets in the washer, brought in my packages, and left my house perfectly clean. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely have Nathalie stay at my house to watch Gigi again. Thank you so much, Nathalie!

Lillian was a delight to work with and she brought both professionalism and compassion and care to taking care of Dixie (dog) and Birdie (cat). She was really good about providing updates and pictures, which is important to me, and she showed concern and determination when Birdie decided to hide from her for hours. She was determined to find her and did, even knowing that she was just pulling her usual antics and would turn up. Really felt secure being home and knowing they were in great hands!

Highly recommend Odeosa for both pet sitting and housesitting! Odeosa stayed at our house for a long weekend to care for our senior dog, Lily, and she was amazing! Super communicative, reliable, and clearly an animal lover. Odeosa took special care to administer our fur baby’s many medications each day, was mindful and patient with the many quirks of a senior dog, and she provided pictures and updates to us throughout (even created a collage of her weekend with Lily!). Lily got plenty of cuddles and time outside, and we came home to a very happy and healthy doggo. So glad we were able to find Odeosa on Rover - she’s now our first choice for a sitter!

Alexis was so sweet and attentive with Blanco and Arlo! She had great communication throughout the entire weekend, sending me regular updates and lots of pictures of what the boys were up to. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were being so well cared for while I was away. I really appreciate how thoughtful and communicative she was, and it’s such a relief to find someone I can trust with my boys when I’m out of town. I would absolutely recommend Alexis and would love to have her watch them again!

Jennifer took care of my two cats and one dog for 6 days. Our dog is very shy and needs to warm up to people but she won him over very quickly. She walked him as requested and kept everyone fed and happy. She also kept the house tidy upon my return. I recommend her and will use her again in the future.

I know it can be a lot to care for 3 dogs at once but she had no hesitation to take on the task and did so with such professionalism.
