About: My pet sitting skills are pretty diverse as young as a 13 week old kitten to a puppy that was a couple weeks old- my parents got a Covid puppy, the sweetest dachshund with the loudest bark!!! I would watch him daily for about a year straight before I moved out! I’ve lived with cats for the last two years, as well as always being around them constantly. My best friend has two of her own. (My nieces) I’m currently working part time at a restaurant in my neighborhood that is only open Wednesday through Sunday. I’ve only been getting about 2 to 3 shifts a week and would obviously like to add some income. I thought what a better way to spend my free time working a part-time job that could also be fulfilling!!! I am very intentive and will follow instruction to a T. I know that leaving your baby with someone else can be stressful, but I am here to give you peace of mind, comfort, and genuine care.

About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a young child. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I'm currently working part time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding at anytime Tuesday through Friday. I have a fenced yard and one friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. Special requests are subject for review.

“Brittany was awesome!! This was our first time using Rover and we were nervous about leaving our girls, but Brittany made it a great experience. She kept us up to date with pictures and comments. She even went above and beyond and brought our packages inside for us. 10/10 recommend. Will definitely be using her again!”


About: Experienced pet sitter skilled in puppy training and senior care. I offer tailored walks, pet first aid, and reliable service with daily updates, ensuring your pet’s happiness. I am currently unemployed, so my hours are very flexible throughout the day to come and be your pet’s personal assistant, and best of friend! I currently have a 2 year old dog named Beau, and I have two cats named Lucy and Chloe. They are super spoiled and I am so lucky to have them!

About: We're back! Four years ago, we left the Waco area for Arkansas. We've returned to Teaxs and now that we are back in the Waco area, we are ready to get startsd with old and new clients. Brady (husband) and I are happy to host your loved ones in our home, fenced-in backyard, and walkable neighborhood. We love animals, the outdoors, and going for looooong walks. We have a few fur friends of our own and are excited to cuddle and work with all the dogs (and cats or birds or lizards!) we can. We really like to get acquainted with our clients and make sure your pet will be as happy as can be while under our care. Feel free to message me about any of our services even if you are just curious about how Rover works! We have a four-bedroom house with space dedicated explicitly to our clients and a large fenced-in backyard. We work on training, socialization, and activities with all of our fur friends. I work remotely and will lecture a few days on Baylor campus with a flexible schedule and Brady works from home. Animals in our care will never be left alone for more than 2 hours at time. Communication is also incredibly important to us. If you do not feel comfortable communicating using the Rover app or dummy number Rover has provided, we cannot provide service for you. Please provide as much information about your pets as possible so we know if we can provide the service you require. This is absolutely in the best interest of you and your loving fur friends. I have a remote job and am a college lecturer with a flexible schedule and my husband works from home. Very rarely will an animal be left for more than 1 hour at a time. Animals are allowed in an out all day. We have fenced areas to keep everyone separate if needed. Please specify if your dog will need extra space.

About: I’ve grown up with a small dog for 12 years and taken care of family and friend’s dog. I can walk, bathe, feed, relax, and play with them! I work from home so my schedule is fairly flexible.

I am a type A person and will always have an eye on them especially if outside during the heat. I have no children and no pets so your pup will have my heart the entire time 💜

“Hailey takes great care of our two dogs! She’s responsive and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend!!”


About: I’ve take care of different breeds of dogs since I was 9 or 10. I had pets from lizards, fish, turtles, hamsters, birds, and many more for as long as I can remember. I had my handsome boy B-Jay for 17yrs before he passed 😭, so I know how to care for a senior dog as well. I went to school for Wildlife. I’m just an all around animal lover. 🐾💕 ‼️PAYMENTS CAN ALWAYS BE ADJUSTED‼️ Just reach out you never know what plan we can come up with. 😊🫶🏽 I’m currently working from home, so I have plenty of time to spend with the fur-babies. I’m available throughout the week, early mornings and evenings after 4:30pm. Boarding is fine throughout the week as well. I have a fenced yard front and back for the babies to play safely outside. Also, have a spare room, for inside dogs to stay in if needed to be crate. I have one fur baby who is about 2yrs old, so he is a ball of energy, but is crate trained. Therefore, if any pets don’t like too much energy they will be unbothered. My cat is an outside cat, so dogs can feel comfortable in the house if they aren’t friendly with cats.

Now that my semester of school has come to a close, I can’t think of a better way to spend my summer than surrounded by animals.

Caring for pets brings me genuine joy, and with a wide-open schedule, I’m excited to give animals the time, attention, and love they deserve all summer long. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their routine and creating a calm, familiar environment. I’ll follow your specific instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications or special needs.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals from dogs and cats, to hamsters and chickens. I am very passionate about animals and making them feel comfortable while their family is gone. I am currently working at a restaurant that closes at 9, so dinner may be a bit later than usual, but breakfast will always be on time! Once school starts back up, I will be able to visit at more normal times to keep their schedule the same. No matter the service I always treat animals with respect and kindness. I can be patient and calm when they are acting up, and I can also play with them when it’s playtime! I love the outdoors and walking, so I like to walk between 1-3 miles when I have the time. If they are younger I don’t mind taking them on longer walks so they can see “the real world” haha!

I hope to be able to be your go to as well!! I personally am a stay at home dog momma and so I have all the time in the world to help you out when needed! I personally treat my pup and other people’s like they are my own children. They deserve the best. My favorite saying is “your dog isn’t with you for your whole life but you are for theirs” and it has always stuck with me to try to make my pups lives the best I can!

Cassidy T.
“Cassidy is truly the best pet sitter you could ask for! She has watched my two kitties several times now, and each time I’m blown away by the love and care she gives them. She’s incredibly sweet, responsible, and goes above and beyond to make sure they’re comfortable and happy while I’m away. It’s such a relief knowing my pets are in the hands of someone I trust completely — I never have to worry for a second. Cassidy treats my animals like her own, and it shows in everything she does. I can’t recommend her enough to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets with the same love and attention they do. She’s truly one of a kind!”


Jonathon W.
“Jonathon went above and beyond when he watched my chihuahua Nahla. I would say he's the best dog sitter I've ever had! He always made sure Nahla was getting enough exercise and loves while I was away at work during the day. He even bathed her a few times when she'd gotten herself into a mess. If you choose Jonathon as your dog sitter he will not let you down.”

Rebecca T.
“Rebecca is a fantastic dog sitter. She watched our doggos for 1 week while we were out of state and the entire time she kept us updated, sent us photos, and took notes every day. She has a lot of experience with animal care (professional and personal) and enjoys spending time with the doggos she is caring for. She definitely knows what she is doing and ikes learning about the doggos prior to care to ensure they are accommodated as needed. I am always stressed when leaving my fur babies behind when we travel; by knowing someone like Rebecca was caring for them I was stress free and our babies were very well taken care of. 10/10 would recommend!”
