“Travis went above and beyond while watching my babies. You can tell that he loves dogs and enjoys watching them. Communicated very well and and sent lots of pictures with his updates. 10/10 experience!”


“Zariah did a great job watching our girls, including dealing with one's upset belly during the first few days of our weeklong trip. Lots of communication and she stayed at our house for basically the entirety of the time we were away. A+, Zariah!”


“After using several sitters on Rover before, Albert has by far been the best. He was clear in his communication and followed up. Albert came for a meet and greet. Albert listened to our instructions on how to approach him. After an initial few minutes, my dog put his paw out to play with him. Albert had a list of questions ready to ask and showed genuine interest and safety in my dogs routine. During our week long stay out of town, Albert set many updates (including videos and pics). I was very assured my dog was well taken care of and loved. I received a pic of them cuddling on the couch. Albert didn’t reach out with a thousand questions while we weee away, instead he constantly assured us to enjoy our vacation. When we returned, the house was immaculate order and I could tell my dog was happy and well taken care of. We’ll definitely be booking Albert again.”


“Bailey took great care of my dog! She sent lots of pictures, was great at communicating with me the whole time she was watching her and also kept me updated on how she was doing especially since my dog just got out of the emergency vet right before I left for my vacation. I would definitely have Bailey watch my dog again and highly recommend her!”


“Jackie is absolutely phenomenal—I cannot recommend her highly enough! My dog lovvvveedddd her and her dog, Coco (which is saying a lot, because my dog usually doesn’t like other dogs). Jackie is incredibly organized and accommodating. I felt completely at ease leaving Roo in her care while we traveled abroad, even with Roo’s medical needs. She sent us daily pictures and was always communicative. We loved her and will 100% be reaching out again in the future!”


“My cat was very comfortable with Danielle. Danielle is very pleasant, follows directions and does those extra little things to make your fur baby happy. Those things go a long way! I'll definitely be asking Danielle again.”


About: As a lifelong animal lover with over 5 years of hands-on experience, I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. From daily walks and medication routines to overnight stays and puppy training, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and right at home. I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family and I’m always happy to send updates and photos so you can relax while you’re away. Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily life. I build my schedule around the needs of the pets I care for—whether that means morning walks, afternoon play sessions, or evening drop-ins. As a reliable and organized sitter, I make sure each pet gets consistent attention, care, and affection. I also leave space in my routine for flexibility, so I’m able to accommodate last-minute requests or spend extra time with pets who need a little more love and patience. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and follow all instructions carefully—whether it’s meal portions, medication, litter box or potty breaks, or house routines like bringing in mail or watering plants. I treat each home with professionalism and leave it just as I found it. Most importantly, I prioritize the pet’s comfort and safety, keeping them happy and stress-free until their family returns.

“Johanna is AMAZING! She took such great care of our Arlo (cat) and our home. Left our home in better condition than we had left it. We had an abundance of updates and pictures. We felt such relief and were able to relax during our time away, knowing Arlo was in the best hands. Johanna is a keeper and will rebook again in the future!”


“Erika accommodated our last minute need for a housesitter and got along with our big dog and fluffy cat right away! She was great about sending updates and seemed to enjoy her time with our fur babies as much as they enjoyed their time with her. We will happily have her back next time we travel.”


“I don’t think word could do justice for how wonderful Ashley is. She is such a warm and caring person and a joy to have as a company, my baby boy Bomzie for sure had a great time with Ashley. Ashley sent pictures and videos everyday and I could see how she is attentive to Bomzie and play with him because I told her only once that Bomzie loves to play and we always try to stimulate his brain through different games. I for sure will ask her to stay with Bomzie and I recommend her to anyone who wants to go on vacation with a peace of mind.”


“Heaven was incredible! Super communicative and took great care of Taffy when I left for the holidays. I could tell Taffy was well loved when I got home and Heaven made sure to send me daily updates to keep my anxiety at bay. I would absolutely recommend booking Heaven for your pet care. Thank you Heaven!”


“We are new to Houston and this was our very first time using Rover, so we were a little nervous leaving our dog while traveling out of the country. Siyu completely exceeded our expectations! She stayed in our home and cared for our pup as if she were her own. We received regular updates and tons of pictures, which gave us such peace of mind and made us feel connected while away. Most importantly, our dog absolutely loved her and was so well cared for. We couldn’t be happier with the experience and highly recommend booking Siyu. She will definitely be our go-to sitter for all future trips!”


“Dani was amazing! She provides daily updates but also responded right away if I texted at random to check in. Benny was experiencing minor bleeding after a surgery he received and Dani made sure to take care of him to the best of her ability. She left the house clean & tidy and even offered to go out and buy something that we ran out of. We definitely recommend her & plan on using her for any future travel!”


“Nandini was wonderful, she took good care of our dog, Kulfi. She took him out, petted him and played with him. Kulfi was happy which is very reassuring for us. We would highly recommend Nandini for anyone looking for reliable and caring sitter. We will definitely be booking her again.”


“Naomi did such a great job with my 3 dogs. She really takes the time to make them feel comfortable. I have an older dog that gets nervous when we are gone. Naomi really took the time to work with her and form a relationship to keep my dog calm and make her feel comfortable. I felt completely at ease while she was watching the dogs. I highly recommend her!”


“Naomi was a great dog sitter! She sent lots of pictures and she tended to all of my dog’s needs. She was very responsive and I would definitely recommend her and rebook her! Thank you so much for tending to Zayla.”


“Arleatha was excellent with our two dogs and cat during our five day trip. She’s very friendly, professional, and we will definitely book with her again.”

He has a calming presence that animals instantly respond to, and he quickly built a bond with them built on trust and affection. Whether it’s sticking to feeding routines, taking long walks, or simply offering comfort, Bryan handles it all with thoughtfulness and ease. He treats every pet like family, and that peace of mind is priceless. I can’t recommend him enough to anyone looking for truly personalized and loving care.”
