“I booked Priscilla for a long visit and she was amazing with my cat. She provided a great environment for her and was very responsive with any messages and requests. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to love their pet while they’re out of town. I almost felt bad taking my cat back!”
“Crystal was wonderful with our two dogs- She sent updates and kept us at ease that they were well cared for in our absence! She even helped our pup celebrate his birthday with a song and extra treats.❤️”
“Janet and her BF were amazing sitters! They kept us updated everyday with pictures and videos. I will absolutely be using this service again in the very near future, and I don’t even think I will ever need to find a new sitter. She’s always gonna be my number 1 choice.”
“So glad we have found an amazing sitter to watch after our two dogs. I highly recommend Ernest if you want a sitter who authentically loves dogs and treats yours like his own. Will 100% use him for future services!”
“Martha is amazing! She sent me daily updates and pictures and I felt Lyla was so well taken care of. She helped me feel confident in leaving my nervous pup there and I knew she was in good hands. When I came to pick her up she was happy to see me but I could tell she felt absolutely comfortable in Martha’s home. Such a great feeling as an owner!”
“Ann was amazing!! My husband and I needed to board our baby for the first time but felt more comfortable finding an in-home pet sitter. We really appreciated Ann’s communication, especially the photos and videos of our boy having a great time. Thank you Ann 🤍”
“Daniella was incredibly kind and accommodating, especially on short notice. She took great care of my dog and kept me updated with check-ins and photos, which gave me real peace of mind. I would absolutely book with her again.”
“We contacted Megan 2 days before our week long trip and she gladly accepted to meet and greet the same day and then took care of Pepper. Megan was very clear in what we need to bring when we drop our pet”
“Amazing pet sitter! 🐾 Great communication, updates with photos, and my pet was happy and well cared for. It gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I would definitely book again!”
“Great communication, both via text and daily pictures, throughout Charlie's stay. Carly gave our girl extra love and cuddles during storms, which spark her anxiety. We felt our velcro doberman was in great hands and would highly recommend Carly to care for your fur baby.”
About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I grew up with multiple dogs, one of which I took care of myself once I was older. I had dog sat for friends and even teachers before. I have volunteered at dog shelters to walk and take care of dogs. I love all dogs and dogs love me. I am currently unemployed, searching for a job. I live in an apartment and am able to board a dog at any time of the week. I have room to play with them and for them to rest. My building has dog-walking areas and, in general, is located in a walkable area for dogs.
“This is our second time trusting our Bella with Andrea and Jerry, and once again they did such a great job taking care of our baby and sending us plenty of updates and pics. Bella loves hanging out Loki at their house.”
“Yogi had the best time! Rachel sent photos and videos of Yogi playing and having fun with her little ones. When we need a rover in the future, we will definitely use Rachel again!”
“Alex was wonderful in taking care of our Ruby! Despite many cancelations and delays of our flight, Alex was super accommodating in taking care of our dog for an extra day! He constantly kept in touch with us and sent us pictures of her regularly. I would highly recommend Alex to take care of your fur babies!”
“We had a great experience with Hailey. She was easy to communicate with and very accommodating. We appreciated her flexibility. She sent us several photos. Our guy seemed to enjoy his stay!”
“Krystal is the best! I traveled from Houston for my brother’s graduation with prearranged plans for my dog while we was busy for the weekend. Long story short, my dog sitter had to cancel last minute, leaving me little time to find arrangements. Krystal was able to accommodate my dog last minute. Throughout Stormi’s stay, Krystal gave me regular updated photos and treated her as if she was her own. Thank you again Krystal!”
“Jacob did a great job taking care of Pluto! He was reliable, friendly, and kept me updated the whole time. Pluto was happy and well taken care of when I got back. I would definitely recommend Jacob and will be booking him again in the future! 🐾”
“Geneva was a great sitter she has a calmness about her. She had the ability to comand control with a quiet spirit. My dogs were happy and well taken care of. I would highly recommend Geneva.”
River Oaks pet parents share their Rover experiences
We had such a great experience with LaRae! She went completely above and beyond, was incredibly flexible, and treated Winston like her own. She even got him a sweet present for his gotcha day, which was so thoughtful and meant a lot to us. We got plenty of updates and could tell Winston was so happy and well cared for the entire time. We will absolutely be using LaRae again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable!
I cannot recommend Olivia enough! I reached out to her in a bit of a panic needing last-minute care for my dog Willow, and she said yes without hesitation. That alone was a huge relief, but what really stood out was how she kept me in the loop the entire time — regular updates, photos, the works. You could just tell Willow was comfortable and genuinely well looked after, not just tolerated. If you’re looking for someone who actually cares about your pup and won’t leave you anxiously checking your phone all day, Olivia is your person. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again!
OBESSEDDDD. Scooty Booty had the best time staying with Sierra and Liam! They were so responsive and their property is every dogs dream. They sent videos and pictures often and are so nice in person as well. I actually feel a little guilty for sending my dog to a kennel all this time when he could've been enjoying a big back yard and some 24/7 TLC this whole time!!!
Danielle took great care of Mochi! We stopped using kennels because we could see the trauma it was causing her when she returned to us. I’m so glad that Danielle treated her like family, and she returned to us tired from a fun week, happy, and calm! Thanks so much!! :)
Jayline was incredible! She took such good care of my dog Winston and sent lots of updates with pictures/videos that were very appreciated. She was very flexible with pickup times and even accompanied a late pick up. She put up with my dogs tummy issues and gave him medicine. We will definitely book again!
Lily took such great care of our baby boy. We were traveling out of state and were getting lots of updates and pictures of him throughout his stay. We’re blessed to have found her and cannot thank her enough for allowing us to go on this trip with peace and calmness knowing our Draco was safe and having a great time❤️
