“This stay for our 2 fur babies with Oscar was about 2 weeks. It seemed like an eternity to me but Oscar kept me posted and sent pictures of them. It helped me have peace of mind. I love when I drop them off they immediately go to his door. 💙”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received. She treated my pup like her own—patient, loving, and incredibly attentive. She went above and beyond, even giving my dog a bath without me asking. It’s such a relief knowing my dog was in such good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and genuinely caring pet sitter.”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for over four decades. I've cared for dogs and cats treating every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to provide the same love, attention, and care that you would give them yourself. Pet Care Routine I work Tuesday - Thursday from 8:15 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., so pets in my care are typically alone during those hours unless I work remotely. Before leaving for work, I ensure they have: Fresh food and water A potty break or litter box cleaned Exercise and playtime Plenty of affection and attention A safe, comfortable environment When I return home around 3:30 p.m., pets receive: An immediate potty break Feeding (if scheduled) Exercise, walks, or playtime Cuddles, companionship, and enrichment Evening care based on each pet's individual routine I understand the importance of maintaining your pet's normal schedule and will follow your feeding, medication, exercise, and care instructions to keep them happy, healthy, and comfortable while you're away. provide personalized care based on each pet's individual needs, routine, and personality, whether I am caring for them in my home or in my client's home. Before each booking, I discuss feeding schedules, exercise requirements, medications, favorite activities, sleeping arrangements, and any special instructions with the owner. In my client's home, I strive to keep pets on their normal routine to minimize stress. I provide fresh food and water, walks or outdoor potty breaks for dogs, litter box cleaning for cats, playtime, companionship, grooming if requested, and medication administration when needed. I also help keep the home tidy by cleaning up after pets, bringing in mail or packages if requested, watering plants, and ensuring the home remains secure. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment where pets receive regular feeding, supervised exercise and playtime, plenty of attention, comfortable rest areas, and frequent potty breaks. I carefully monitor their health and behavior and communicate with owners through regular updates and photos so they know their pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and as comfortable as possible while their family is away. With more than 40 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, rabbits, turtles, fish, and hamsters, I understand that every animal deserves patient, compassionate, and dependable care.
About: We’ve taken care of many cats and dogs for friends and family! Our recent experience was fostering sick neonatal kittens until they were healthy and ready for adoption! We welcome all kinds of pets,needs, and personalities! I go to UTEP full-time, two days out of the week, but while I am gone to school there will always be someone watching your babies at my home! Other than that, I am free the rest of the time to walk them and do any other necessary duties for your pets. I have a fenced backyard and front yard, and they will have their own private area to sleep in and eat. They will also have the amount of interactions you prefer, if your pet is more social they can hang out in the common areas and if they prefer to be in a quiet space, they can stay in their private area.
“Camille and her wife are wonderful wonderful people! They took such good care of our little Tommy! He was clearly spoiled just like at home. She did an amazing job of sending us regular updates and pictures. I am 100% sure I have found the very best doggie sitter on here! Thank you again for taking such great care of him in your home for 10 days. We enjoyed our vacation without having to worry about our puppers! Highly highly recommended!”
“Megan was incredibly helpful during a last minute situation with our family. Instead of a meet and greet she ended up keeping our dog has our daughter ended up hospitalized and even extended to give us time to recover. This was a tremendous blessing. Highly recommend her!”
“Mia had a great weekend with Yvette. I can tell she had fun and got plenty of exercise. I was updated with pictures. Will definitely book again! Went above and beyond 😊”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs/and cats since I was a little girl. I’ve even had a pet hamster, guinea pig, bunny, fish , and even hermit crab! I currently am available all days of the week! I am able to do visits anytime after 8 in the mornings, and any time afternoon work for me! I currently live in an house and are able to take pets into my home. I do have a cat so as long as your pets are okay with cats! If not I can always work around that
“Amazing experience. Maria and Juan are caring, good hearted people that go above and beyond to care for your fur babies! My Chloe felt loved and comfortable with them, and they will definitely be my first choice if ever I need a sitter.”
“Incredibly kind and amazing! This was our first time boarding our dogs due to unforeseen circumstances and we booked last minute. She took excellent care of our pups and sent pictures every day. Will definitely be booking again if we ever need to or just need help with our doggies!”
“So happy to have tried Rover and found Michelle. Leaving our two mini dachshunds behind was so stressful but her loving home put me at ease. I know my girls received all the nurturing and attention they would have from me. Through photo and video updates I was able to see how happy they were. This was our first time but I’m sure we’ll be back. Thank you, Michelle. Georgia and Panini already miss you.”
“Initially, I was apprehensive about entrusting my dog to a dog sitter. Traditionally, I have entrusted my dog companion to the care of a family member during my vacations. However, I resolved to take a leap of faith and observe the well-being of my dog. Natalie proved to be an exceptional caregiver, ensuring that my dog felt at home and embraced as a member of her family. I was particularly impressed by her prompt response and the seamless nature of the process. I thoroughly enjoyed the photographs and updates she provided regarding my dog progress. Natalie’s exceptional care and attention to detail are truly commendable.”
“Monica was great with Henry! It was the first time leaving him with a sitter since he is apprehensive around other dogs (and most sitters have pets of their own), but she was communicative and took good care of him. He came home happy and tired. Will definitely book again in the future!”
“Anna was so great!! She treated Larry like he was one of her own and part of their family. I received regular updates and never worried about how he was doing. Highly recommend if you’re in need of a sitter. Their dog Teddy is also really great and friendly. I am so happy and grateful to have found her! I will definitely book with her again in the future.”
About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have years of experience caring for pets. We previously had two German Shepherds and now have a Mini Australian Shepherd and a cat. I know every pet has their own personality and needs, so I’d love to meet, chat, and learn how I can best care for yours! I work from home full-time, so I’m able to provide attention and companionship throughout the day. Since I do work from home, pets that are comfortable in a calm home environment and can settle while I’m working are the best fit. I am available 7 days a week. I have a large, spacious home with a fully fenced backyard and plenty of room for potty breaks and playtime. I work from home full-time, so pets can be let outside throughout the day. I typically provide two walks a day along with attention and care. Every pet is different, so I’m happy to discuss their routine, personality, and individual needs to make them feel comfortable and at home.
About: Family and friends recognize my love for their pets when I visit their homes. I have experience house sitting homes with at least two pets. I follow routines and schedules to avoid stress on the pets. I have more experience with large dogs however I have also cared for chihuahuas in the past. I have one dog who I raised since she was 6 weeks old. She’ll be 5 this November. She is a pitbull who loves to sleep and cuddle. She has 7 roommates, 1 turtle, 3 adults pugs, 2 puppy pugs and 1 eight month old bully. My work allows full flexibility. I am available 7 days a week between 6:30 am - 8:30 pm. I update my calendar frequently to avoid last minute changes/ cancellations. My dog is crate trained due to the fact that we do not have a doggy door. I care for my clients pets the way they would. I make sure to keep a routine for their pets to reduce stress caused by the absence of their owners. I do have conversations with pets and interact with them as I do with my dog.
“Leaving our pet for a couple of days is never easy. However, Kendall and her husband made this an easy and worry-free experience. Kendall would send daily updates and pictures. She adhered to Russell's (our dog) specific eating procedures and provided me with some suggestions. I am sure Russell misses them already! Thank you for welcoming my dog with open arms.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sparks
Karen did an awesome job taking care of my babies, her house and big backyard were great and simply perfect for dogs to run around. She was very communicative and always replied as well as sent multiple pictures of them. This was my first time using Rover since it’s hard for me to trust anyone with my babies but Karen made all that better and I can honestly say I was at peace knowing my dogs were in good hands. I will definitely be booking Karen again for my next trip and I would totally recommend her to others.
Jessica is such a kind and loving pet sitter. Mochi always feels comfortable and at home with her. I really appreciate the daily updates and photos showing how Mochi is doing. We look forward to seeing you again! Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Mochi once again.
Maira was nothing short of amazing. I have tried a few people on Rover and she was excellent! She is very responsive, took such good care of my dog Milo and he came back home so happy. I will absolutely book with her again. I completely trust her. Highly recommend!
Scarlett was the best pet sitter I have ever had. My 3 month old puppy broke her leg and I needed care quickly. Scarlett loved on her, kept up with the medicine schedule, sent me timely updates and was patient with all that was required for a sick pup. She was empathetic, caring, and pleasant to work with. I highly recommend her and I will definitely use her services again.
I had an excellent experience with our dog sitter! She was reliable, caring, and truly went above and beyond to make sure my dog felt comfortable and loved while I was away. Communication was great—I received regular updates and photos. Which gave me so much peace of mind.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Sparks home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Sparks.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Sparks sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in TX ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
