About: I've been a dog owner for 15 years now and there is nothing more that I love to spend time on than taking them on walking and hiking adventures all around the town and surrounding areas. And I would love to do the same with your dogs if you give me that opportunity. Your dogs will create a new space in my heart and together we will create some fun and healthy adventures with all the joy and sweetness that your dog deserves.

I am very passionate about pet care and will treat your dog like I treat my own, as part of my family. Rover is my work! My partner works from home so my full attention is with the dogs 24/7. Any time you need it, I’m available. We have a completely dog safe environment inside and out. We have a fenced backyard with kiddie pools for the pups. Our lab is mild mannered and friendly. She enjoys the company of other dogs. We do not have any crates, but can have our dog separated in her room if needed. Crates are welcome if your dog is more comfortable for sleep or relaxation time.

As a sitter, I look forward to taking care of your pet, providing consecutive updates with texts/photos. Rest assured they will be in good hands<3.

I promise to be truthful and follow instructions for the day.

About: One year with Rover 🎉. I’ve taken care of my dogs for about 9 years now. Over the years I’ve learned so much “dog language” and needs dogs have in order to stay happy. I’ve taken care of friends, family’s, and clients pets as they relied on me to train a puppy, feed their pets, take them outside for playtime, and much more. I’m currently a part-time associate but I don’t go in too long or often. I have plenty of available time to play/care for my pets and possibly others. I have two small dogs so I’m definitely open to care for more. I have a fenced yard and two small, friendly dogs who are playful. I also have a dog crate in case it will be needed. I have my dogs by my side at all times because it’s important that they are supervised in order to ensure their needs are met.

About: Lifelong animal lover, rescue dog mom, and someone who truly understands how much our pets mean to us. I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all kinds, from puppies who want to play all day to sweet seniors who just need a little extra TLC. I’m comfortable giving medications, following special routines, and making sure your pet feels safe, seen, and loved while you’re away. I’ve rescued and fostered several dogs over the years (including my current pups!), and I know how important trust and patience are—especially with animals who may need a little extra time to warm up. I also love the outdoors and make sure every dog in my care gets plenty of fresh air, exercise, and attention based on their energy level and needs. Whether your dog wants to curl up and nap or explore the neighborhood, I’ll be there to make them feel at home. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family—because to me, they are. Currently I am available at all times of the day and week. Morning or night. I will be able to accommodate needs ranging from; in home sitting, house sitting, daily walks/care...etc. In my home, your dog will be welcomed into a calm and loving space shared with my two small, dog-friendly pups. I have one kennel available that can be set up in a quiet, separate room if your pet needs their own space to relax. If you prefer to bring your own kennel, I’m more than happy to accommodate—whatever makes your fur baby feel most at home. While in my care, all dogs will be kept on leash at all times for safety. My home has a peaceful, zen-like atmosphere. Whether it’s for a short stay or longer visit, your pet will be treated like part of the family—and I’ll keep you updated every step of the way with texts and photos. PS I also offer dog baths upon request!

About: Hello my name is Amanda :) I am from Harlingen and currently attending UTRGV to major in Marine Biology. Me and my family have a three year old chihuahua named Soda who is super loved!! I decided to get Rover because I would like to earn some money to help with my school expenses & other things. I am currently 23 yrs old. I am a friendly and an easy going person. I would love and enjoy the opportunity to take care of your little fur friends and will do my absolute best of taking care of them. I love dogs and look forward to having fun with them! For dog walking & dog visit services, I am available early mornings to mid afternoons for both weekdays and weekends. I am excited to care of your pups! My dog Soda is an indoor dog but he really loves playing outside. When he wants to go outside, I walk him on his leash and playfully throw his ball for him to run, and take him to do his doggy business.
