We could not be more pleased with Geneva! She did a great job for us and Ted and we intend to use her again. She was very professional, courteous, communicative, and timely. We were impressed!

Elmer was amazing! Our regular sitter wasn’t able to watch our dogs and finding someone new to trust is always a little stressful, but he made the whole process very easy. He was personable, sent daily photos and videos where our dogs looked so happy, and we came back to a clean house. It gave us so much peace of mind while we were away! Would definitely use him again

My dog, Dante, can be anxious around new people. Jamie connected with him immediately and understood how to handle him! I'm so grateful for her attentiveness and care of my snuggle monster!

Kyree was great with Titan and very responsive. She even put together the new bowls for him that were delivered while I was gone. Would recommend to anyone looking to find someone who will treat their pet like family.

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!

Timothy house-sat our dogs for a few days and did an excellent job! He was extremely proactive in communication, sent regular picture updates, and left the house clean and tidy. We could tell the dogs had been well cared for when we returned and will absolutely plan to book pet care with Timothy in future!

About: I’ve been caring for my own dog for 7 years, and my love for animals has led me to volunteer at local dog shelters and care for multiple pets for friends and family. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and personalities and always treat them like my own. I’m very detail-oriented, organized, and committed to following each pet’s routine and any special instructions closely. I love keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages so they can have peace of mind while they’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing extra love and attention, I’m dedicated to making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I am mainly free in the early mornings and later evenings! As long as I know the schedule ahead of time I am willing to make anything work for you and your furry friend. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions. I am detail-oriented and organized, ensuring your pet receives the same love and attention they’re used to while you’re away. I treat every home with respect and every pet like family. I also love providing regular updates with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry friend is safe, happy, and well cared for.

I had such a great experience with Sara! She went above and beyond from the very start—arriving early and keeping Roux happily distracted while I took care of some last-minute trip details. It made my departure so much less stressful.Throughout the stay, she sent thoughtful updates and pictures, which I really appreciated—it was such a comfort to know Roux was in good hands. She was extremely responsible, paid close attention to all the details about Roux’s routines, feedings, and medications, and really listened to everything I shared. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, dependable, and attentive pet sitter!

Diamond was amazing! She is kind and patient, and has wonderful positive energy, and a bright personality. Thank you for being patient with my girl, and giving her a chance to get to know you. She’s already walked into the guest room multiple times looking for you. Lol It’s hard for me to trust her with just anyone, but you did such a wonderful job with her, that I can’t wait to book you again! A thousand thanks from me and Duchess. 🫶🏼

About: I have taken care of my dog for 11 years and I treated her like my own daughter until she passed away lately. I have also taken care of my cat for 7 years. I picked him and his siblings up at the side of the street. I gave his siblings to my relatives and I kept one without the tail. He became my baby cat ever since. I'm currently working at home, so I have a plenty of time to play with your pups and kitten! I can work from 8-9am till 3-4pm. I can well take care of your dogs or cats all the time at your home. To make sure of them not getting hurt, not hungry, not thirsty, or not messy around.

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!

About: I am 33 years old & a graduate of University of Houston. I live in the southeast part of Houston, Tx. I live in a two story house in a gated community with plenty walking space & that is also pet friendly with my parents & my dogs Chase & Callie! He's a pomeranian mixed with maltese as well as she is & they both are characters. Ive always had dogs from my childhood to now they are just a joy to have. I have dog sat for my friends & I get along well with all types of dogs no matter how big or small. My availability currently is completely open since im home for the summer & waiting to hear back from job opportunities. Most weekends im available unless my calendar says different. If you can't make it to my home, I would be happy to with no problem at all or if you prefer keeping your dog(s) at home to come to your home and help you out. Why I love dog sitting I have had dogs throughout my whole childhood up till now. The only reason I can think of why we didn't keep them is either my family moved and one of our dogs was sick. I'm definitely a dog person I have an instant connection whenever I meet one because I love them so much, they are truly woman's best friend. About my yard No backyard but plenty grassy, walking space along the fences and at the parks. My experience administering medication Yes, I have to give my dog his pills when needed. As stated before im completely open. Dogs can go out as much as they need to & walked around the community as well. Play time, dog park or whatever needs to be fulfilled. Pets are allowed wherever in the home, furniture included. Your pets will definitely feel as if they have another home away from home. Whatever you do or dont do at your home is applied in mine.

We cannot say enough amazing things about Ines! She watched both of our dogs and took absolutely immaculate care of our home while we were away. Communication was fantastic—we loved getting updates and the personalized daily photos, which gave us total peace of mind. Beyond just standard pet sitting, Ines went above and beyond by helping train our 1-year-old French Bulldog pup during her stay! It is so rare to find a sitter who is not only incredibly responsible with your home, but also possesses the genuine skill and patience to work on puppy training. We came home to very happy, well-behaved pups and a spotless house. We will absolutely be booking Ines again!

Trystan was absolutely wonderful and I can’t recommend her enough. She was incredibly flexible and accommodating with a short notice request the week prior for a 24 hour house sitting request which I really appreciated. Before the stay she took the time to meet with me and my dogs which immediately put me at ease. My dogs took to her right away. Teddy had a great time playing with her and Jack who can sometimes be slow to warm up liked her instantly. That alone said a lot about her. During her stay she sent updates with photos and videos which made me feel completely comfortable while I was away. She also stayed for nearly the full 24 hour duration giving my dogs consistent care and attention. Overall, Trystan is reliable, attentive, and clearly loves what she does. I would absolutely trust her again with my home and my dogs.

Stephanie has been my dog sitter several times, and I could not be more pleased with the care and love my dog receives from her! I was out of town for almost 3 weeks and knew I could rely on her for the best possible care of Jules. She will continue to be my no. 1 choice for dog sitting!

Kyndall was what we've been looking for. Very sweet yound lady with a passion for animals and their well being. My 11 year old Canary Mastiff is a grouch and very standoff'ish when it comes to new people around him. He almost immediately warmed up to Kyndall. She sent plenty of pics of either him playing with her or just lounging around. She is definitely my go to moving forward. I'd recommend Kyndall 11 out of 10 times!
