“Our papillons stay with Margot was awesome! We were very leery leaving him with anyone but Margot did a wonderful job and kept us informed with text and pics. Thank you!”

“We took a trip to South Padre Island and stayed at a condo that wasn’t pet friendly, so we found Alexis. She was great with our Bo. She sent daily pics of Bo, good mornings and good nights. We felt so comfortable because from the moment we were matched with her it was constant communication. The dropping off and picking up was quick and smooth. This was the first time Bo was left with a total stranger and he did very good, so that says a lot about how she cares about our pets. Thank you again, Alexis 💕”

“Great communication from before even dropping off the dogs till picking them up. Sent updated photos daily and did his best to make my pups feel comfortable. I felt at peace knowing they were in a good place being well taken care of.”


“I was very nervous about leaving my 2 small rescue dogs who are very attached to me. But Alicia made me feel very confident with her kindness and love for her own animals. My dogs did fine, she sent me photos of them, and I was able to enjoy my trip away knowing they were in good hands!”

“Jessica was a great and accommodating host as we were in a rush to drop our dogs off on way to the airport and kind enough to allow a late night pick up when our return flight got in late. Our dogs seemed like they were happy and we will use her again! 🐾”

“THEY WERE SO AMAZING. Sent lot's of updates, photos, and videos. Even accommodated the fact that my flight was delayed causing me to miss my connection and was stuck in ATL overnight. Their dog is so playful and friendly which made my dog have the time of his life. They took amazing care of my dog and provided him with all his vitamins and any of his special needs were well monitored.”

About: Any breed any size is welcomed! Whether you’re looking for a safe place for your hairy child to stay while you’re out of town or you’re just looking to have a vacation from your fur baby, you’re always welcomed to board with me. Hello! My name is Frank Barcenas. I am 28 and live in an apartment located in Bayview, TX. I have 2 pets of my own 2 dogs that mean the world to me and are by my side every second of the day. Taking care of dogs is a passion more than anything. Interacting with different breeds and seeing their different personalities is very interesting to me. I have been experienced with caring for animals for 5+ years. I have taken care of animals ranging from reptiles all the way to donkeys and pigs. I have volunteered at multiple animal shelters in the valley and have worked at multiple kennels aswell. I enjoy every second of caring for the animals making sure they’re in a safe and lovable environment as if they were at home. I am experienced in clipping nails, bathings, giving medication, giving shots, and general training. Boarding at my apartment, you can expect that your pups will be cared for and given lots of love and attention. One of the biggest problems dogs have are experiencing extreme anxiety when being separated from their normal routine. Having plenty of toys and multiple distractions at my apartment will ensure that your pet baby has a smooth and wonderful experience when boarding. When boarding with me you can expect multiple photos and videos of your pets daily while boarding. Work a 9-5 job. Pups would be inside during the hot hours of the day with my wife and will have small time outside during peak heat hours. In the afternoon when the heat is not bad they will be able to be outside 3+ hours I have a fenced yard. 24/7 supervision of the pups. Away from any high traffic roads. I have 2 pups who do well with other dogs
“Brittany and Amber were terrific! They are close to BRO, so super convenient for drop offs, and they have enough room to keep visiting dogs separated from theirs (mine were pissy.). Brittany sent pictures and videos consistently and my Walter and Lilo got lots of attention and love. Came home 12 days later to happy puppers! Would use Brittany again in a heartbeat.”
“We trusted Samantha with our dog and we are appreciative of the great care she provided him. It was our first time away from him and her daily pictures and comments during his stay reassured us that he was well. We will soon be glad to have him stay with her again .”

“Samantha took care of my puppy Sully while I went out of town. She always kept me up to date on his day and sent plenty of pictures. Samantha and her family are super kind and professional. I would definitely use her services again in the future.”

About: I have one dog myself. I love pets and will treat your fur babies like they are my own. I also have experience training 3 puppies in the past as well. I work from home, so I can attend to your fur babies most of the time throughout the day. I also enjoy going for walks on a daily basis. I have a fenced in yard with a lot of running space. I also have one dog who loves other pets, to keep them company.
“Gabriela took very good care of my pup while I was away. She kept me updated throughout the weekend with pictures and updates on Theo. He also enjoyed his stay with her. I recommend booking with her when you need a dog sitter!!”

“I had a great experience with Claudia through Rover! She communicated really well and kept me updated with messages and pictures of my dog, Cecil. I was a little worried leaving him since he’s an older dog, but her experience with senior pets made me feel so much more comfortable. I could tell he was in good hands. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”

“Ximena was outstanding! She was very attentive to our dog who is a little older. We appreciated all the pictures she sent as well. Great choice for a sitter if you’re in College Station!”


About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. Friends, neighbors, and family often trust me to feed, walk, and spend time with their pets while they’re away. I’m very active and patient, so I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and safe. I understand how important pets are to their families, so I treat every dog like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of attention, care, and love while you’re away. I work during the day at a school, so I’m available after school hours on weekdays and most weekends. I am also mainly free during anytime of the day during the holidays. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m very active and enjoy spending time outdoors. I’m happy to take dogs on walks, play with them, and give them plenty of attention and care. I’m also flexible and can work with your pet’s usual schedule for feeding, walks, and routines. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always make sure dogs are supervised, secure, and in a calm environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions you provide. When caring for pets, I make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. I also provide updates and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I can deal with energetic dogs. I can deal with small and large dogs. I’m aware when they are eating something they are not supposed to i’m correctly working part time so i have some time to pet sit. I also take long walks why not have a furry friend next to me i have a big fenced yard so that can play outside. I have neighbors with dogs and can play together. Have a dog park nearby by
