“Rey and his partner were amazing sitters for Duke! Throughout my time away, Rey kept me updated with videos, and it was reassuring to see Duke so happy, playful, and full of joy. It was clear they gave him lots of love, attention, and great care. Knowing Duke was comfortable and having such a good time made my trip completely stress free. I truly appreciate everything Rey and his partner did and wouldn't hesitate to book with them again. Highly recommend Rey to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!”

I am glad I found someone who cared for my pup as if she were their own. I will surely rebook with Erika the next time I need someone to watch my Mindy. Thank you again, Erika!”
“Tami was an amazing dog sitter for my dog, Luke, this past weekend. From the moment we met, I felt confident in her ability to take care of him. She was friendly, professional, and clearly has a great love for dogs. Throughout the weekend, she kept me updated with photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease. Luke seemed so happy and relaxed in her care. I could tell he was getting plenty of attention, playtime, and love. When I picked him up, he was calm and content, which is a sure sign that he had a great time with Tami. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. Thank you, Tami, for taking such good care of Luke!”

“This is our first time using Mayra. We came as strangers and left as friends. She watched our 10 yo Jack Russel. Our pet requires extra care as she is diabetic. Mayra is well versed in dealing with pets that need extra care. She kept us update often w pictures and messages. We rate her a 10 out of 10. Highly recommended!!”
“Cookie our puppy, had a great time at Jessica’s house for over 2 weeks. He got a lot of exercise and we were sent photos every day. He was well cared for! Thank you Jessica.”
“So happy with my dog's stay. He got the attention and care he needed! They were in great communication and I wasn't worried at all. My dog is newer and she worked with his issues and while I was worried because I didn't have a ton of historical info to give and be absolutely sure, it definitely worked out great! Would recommend!”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life and love caring for them like they’re my babies. I also help watch my family and friends' pets when they’re out of town, so I’m used to giving animals lots of love and attention. You can trust that your pet will be safe, happy, and treated like family with me. I’m attending the university of the rio grande valley. However, I only attend on certain days and right now it’s summer so i’m free. I will make time.

About: I'm a reliable and caring pet sitter with a genuine love for animals. Whether you're away for a few hours or several days, I'll make sure your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I provide feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of affection( bathing time could also be requested) just like they’re part of my own family. You can relax knowing your fur babies are in good hands!" As I am in the process of pursuing a career as a phlebotomist and enrolling in nursing classes, my schedule can be busy at times. For this reason, I don’t typically accept house sitting, but may make exceptions for short stays under a week if they are nearby and align with my availability. I do offer drop-in visits when my schedule allows and am fully accepting boarding, where I can provide consistent and loving care. I tailor my pet care based on each pet’s routine and needs, whether in my home or the client’s. In the client’s home, I maintain their pet’s usual feeding, walking, and play schedule to provide comfort and consistency. In my home, pets have a safe, clean, and welcoming environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I always prioritize their well-being, communicate regularly with owners, and ensure pets feel secure and loved while in my care.
“Victoria is awesome. She took in our puppy, sent pictures showing Chili was doing great. At pick up our dog smelled awesome, I think she was bathed and Victoria washed the blanket and bed also. That was great added bonus. Would leave Chili with her again.”
“Maritza was amazing with Buddy! He was so happy and well taken care of, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Maritza was always communicating with us and kept updating us through his stay you could tell Buddy was super happy at her house. I would definitely trust her with him again and highly recommend her”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Scissors home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Scissors.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Scissors sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in TX ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
