About: Hi! I'm Stefanie. I grew up with both dogs and cats and love caring for pets of all sizes and personalities. I offer daily walks, drop-ins, and medication administration, and I'll send photo updates so you never miss a moment. Calm, ATTENTIVE, and fully committed to your pet's routine and comfort. My experiences are a combination of my life long love for animals and a year providing professional services. I am a stay at home mom with two teens. One attends public school while my oldest chose homeschooling a couple years ago. This gives me time to work your pet care in in any way needed. I will do my best to make sure your pets receive all the love needed to sustain a day alone. Having raised two kids has taught the power of vigilance and how to become attuned to each pets need.

About: I’ve always loved animals and feel very comfortable caring for them. Friends and family have trusted me to watch their pets, feed them, walk them, and make sure they feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. I’m patient, attentive, and enjoy spending time playing with dogs and making sure they get the care and attention they need. I always treat other dogs and cats including stray animals as if they are my own. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets. I enjoy taking dogs on walks and making sure they get lots of playtime and attention. I’m most available Thursday through Sunday, with full availability on Sundays. During the week I attend school and occasionally babysit, but I still have time for drop-ins, walks, visits, and pet care. On Saturdays I attend church, but I’m available before 1pm and after 3pm. I’m happy to work with owners to make sure their pets receive consistent care, exercise, and attention. I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment and treat every pet like family. I have a large fenced yard where dogs can safely run and play, and I provide toys and treats to keep them engaged and happy. My neighborhood also has a walking trail, which is perfect for longer nature walks and daily exercise. I have two friendly dogs of my own—an 8-year-old female and a 14-year-old male—who are calm and used to being around people and other pets. I keep my dogs’ vaccinations up to date and can provide that information for transparency and safety. For overnight stays or visits, I ask that owners provide their dog’s food, leash, bed, and any specific items their pet is used to, as well as shampoo if a bath is requested. For everyone’s safety, pets should be up-to-date on important vaccinations, especially rabies and routine deworming. Dogs in my care receive plenty of attention, walks, and playtime. Pets are welcome on the bed or couch as long as they are vaccinated, trained, and comfortable. I also send updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are safe and happy.

About: I grew up with dogs my entire childhood and raised my own pup at 16. Potty trained and taught him tricks. I also raised my 8yr old cat since he was 2 weeks old. I’ve dog/cat sat in college and for family/friends. I’ve done it all from playing, walking, feeding, cleaning - whatever your fur baby needs. I just love pets and luckily they like me too. Even the ones that don’t usually like anyone. I work from home and my schedule is very flexible so I can work my schedule around your pets needs. I can even do last minute. I like to get to know your pet and see what boundaries they have then go from there so they like me.I also know that a lot of pets needs routine and I’m happy to stick to that routine. More than willing to work with you and your pets needs.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs since I was very young. Both our family pups have passed on through the rainbow bridge, while we miss them we are taking a break after 15 years of being dog owners. I love dogs and am a dog person. I have worked with the arlington animal shelter & search one rescue’s weekly training. One of life's greatest feelings is the love of an animal. I work for a nonprofit organization as a life coach within the Dallas school system, so my schedule closely follows school hours and holidays. This provides me with a consistent routine and flexibility outside of school times. I’m available most weekends and love incorporating daily outings and activities around the DFW area to keep pets active, engaged, and happy. I have a fenced in yard. Experience with dog crating. During the summer months I limit my personal pups’ time outdoors. We keep the animals in the first room from the front door with baby gates which is a large area we use for dining.

About: If you know me, then you know the only thing I may love more than my kids are animals. I have never met a dog I do not love a will not only love on your babies but also am comfortable with any special care or medical need your baby may have as I have had experience with many situations myself and and am happy to learn on anything I’m not familiar with. My daughter is a mobile groomer in the Fort Worth area as well and has taught me so much about many different breeds so I’m excited to meet your pups big or small! I retired a few years back and now am a caretaker to my parents but have a very flexible schedule as I am always local. I was born and raised in the area and am very comfortable with local travel to wherever I am needed to care for your pets.

About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life - from tiny Chihuahuas to larger breeds such as Labs, Golden Retrievers, and Boxers. My wife and I currently have an Australian Shepherd named Charlie, who keeps us on our toes and keeps us super active! My current work schedule is flexible, so I can drop in on your pup fairly readily for walks or drop-ins. I'm also a runner in my spare time, so longer walks/runs with your pup is something I love to do if that's what he/she needs! I know firsthand how important it is to take care of your space with your pup, so I'm ready and willing to follow whatever instructions you give me to make sure they are well cared for in your home and when they are in my care.

About: I have owned dogs and cats my entire life. I have also helped take care of other people's fur babies for over 10 years. This has included: dog sitting, walks, and administering medications. I work as an independent contractor so my schedule is pretty flexible and can change based on your pets needs. I would love to take your fur babies on walks and take care of them. I will love and care for your pet as if it were my own. I'll be sure to keep you updated with pictures or messages of how they're doing. I can also water any plants and bring your mail in if needed, just let me know!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for about 5 years now, often pet sitting for neighbors and friends while they were away. I have much experience in caring for both large and small dogs, as well as dogs with all different energy levels and play styles! I’m comfortable sitting for any pup, no matter the size or how they choose to enjoy their time. I currently work full-time, however, I will always have time to care for your pups! I will always be available to stop by every 8 hours at the longest, and am also always available to house sit overnight. I am very experienced in house sitting, and am always happy to help with chores around the house if needed! I always make sure to enter as calmly as possible to not scare any skittish pups, or rile up energetic ones. I make sure all dogs are safe once I leave, ensuring there is nothing that could possibly harm them while I am away. I will always ensure to crate dogs who need it before I leave as well! I will feed pups on time, and always make sure they have adequate water, especially before I leave. If boarding, I have a wonderfully friendly Schnauzer named Archie, who would love to play with your pup! Just note, he is very energetic, but does also do well with senior dogs!

About: I have been pet sitting and housesitting for over 8 years but am just now hopping on rover! I love pets deeply and aim to make them comfortable while you are away. I have experience training hyperactive dogs, potting training, some trick training, taking care of dogs of all sizes, ages 8 weeks-14 years, indoor and outdoor cats, as well as chickens, bunnies, fish, and more! I am excited to get to know you and your pets!! I am currently gaining my teacher's certification and have very open availability this summer. I do already have some weeks filled up petsitting this summer but please message me to fit you in! I do not board pets at my home, only visit and stay at clients houses. I use reliable transportation and can stop by multiple times a day or stay with your pets overnight. I am comfortable following strict feeding schedules, giving dogs medication, and of course playing with them!! My goal is always to keep pets comfortable in a stressful time of their owners leaving. Though I am new on Rover, I have a list of references available from clients who have used me for years.

About: I’ve rescued my dog 15 years ago and fell in love with dogs ever since. My baby Galaxy recently passed from old age. I now have my brother’s dog named Bella. Please make sure your dogs are up-to-date on flee and tick meds to prevent it from being in my house and backyard. No cats due to allergies. Please provide food, bowls, leash, and beds. I can play with them in the backyard and take them for frequent walks. I have a house that is an open floor plan great for them to walk around. The house is fenced and can very well be perfect for dog sitting. The area is nice for walks. I do have 1 dog cage, if needed. I also have a bird. May as well be a zoo 😂

About: My name is Cecilia, aka Ceci. I've cared for animals most of my life. In early 2024, my pup crossed the rainbow bridge and has left an emptiness in our home and I'm hoping to honor him by caring and spoiling others pets just like him. I have a flexible schedule with my current occupation, therefore I'll be able to prioritize pets when come by for a visit or have them in my home. I have a fenced yard and lovely neighborhood for plenty of walks. They will be taken care of like family. Plenty of attention to give.

Sadia was fabulous. I texted about setting up a meet & greet for my 3 year old pup & she got back to me on availability almost immediately! When she came over she was enthusiastic which my dog really enjoyed, she asked great questions & was 100% down to help out with little things like changing the water bowl. When I booked a walk she double checked with me on times & was willing to answer any extra questions I had. I know she is newer to ROVER, but she is a great candidate. Will book again!
