“Amber has been an absolute lifesaver when it comes to taking care of my two dogs, Athena and Sybil. She is reliable, kind, and truly loves animals. Whether it’s walking them, letting them out, or keeping an eye on Athena (who can be a bit of an escape artist!), I always feel at ease knowing they’re in great hands. Sybil is very ball-focused, and Amber makes sure she gets plenty of playtime, which I really appreciate. My dogs adore her, and I can’t recommend her enough to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter/walker!”
“Rylee watched our two cats while we were gone for the holidays and did a great job watching over them! She was very communicative and sent pictures for each of her visits, I’d definitely recommend her and will rebook her in the future!”

“Ali and Priscilla were great with my dog Gaia. They followed instructions and Gaia was definitely spoiled while they were with her. They spent time with her, made sure she was minding her manners, and even brought her a new toy to play with her.”


“Brittany is super nice. I needed a sitter for my two cats and she did a fantastic job of taking care of them and sending me pictures while I was away. I am sure you won’t be disappointed...”
“Heather was Fantastic as always! Our cats love her and will miss her. We love her communication and all the pictures. We will definitely contact her for our next travel. Thank you Heather! You are amazing!”

“Meagan is outstanding with a wonderful sense of humor. I loved her updates and photos. I never once worried about my Duke. I know he was well taken care of and loved.”

“Our Daisy fell in love with Emily the minute she walked in the door. I knew my fury friends would be in great hands and they were. I will definitely rebook with Emily.”

“Wendy was very attentive and loving with our indoor kitty and outdoor kitty. She communicated with us when she was going to be late one day and asked if that was okay. Our kitties took a liking to her and they are very discerning - so it’s clear she is a true cat lover!”

“She takes such good care of my dogs! She’s always on time and listens to all of my requests. My dogs love her too! I use her roughly 5 days a week and haven’t had any issues. I would highly recommend her service!”

“Ruby was amazing! My Chow is usually super selective with the people he’s comfortable with but he was letting Ruby pet him within the first 2 minutes of the meet & greet. During the scheduled drop-in visits, Ruby was on time, followed all instructions clearly, and gave detailed updates with photos. I really appreciated her communication and felt reassured that my dog was in good hands! I would definitely rebook with Ruby and recommend booking her if you want someone who will take great care of your pet!”

River Oaks pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kenna was great! She was very responsive and even offered a meet and greet to make sure she and my cat got along. She provided pictures and updates after every visit, and I really appreciate her showing up every day to make sure my cat’s food and water were fresh. Reliable and caring — would definitely recommend!

Nathan did a great job with watching my dog while I was traveling. Things that stood out to me about Nathan was his on time check ins, how well he followed my directions, and the plenty of pictures and fast responses he would sent me. Nathan has a wonderful dog himself and he put aside time for our dogs to meet. My dog for sure enjoyed having a friend while I was away. Thanks again Nathan you did fantastic!
