“We are new returnees to the area who needed last-minute boarding for our 13-year-old dog. (<3 days). Tracy and the family took excellent care of our Senior pet! The process was extremely well refined from booking to pickup. They are extremely responsive to messages and questions. The family also seems to have extensive experience with dogs of all ages! We will be using them in the coming months as our preferred choice for local boarding.”
“Deanna was great! Easy to work with and my dog and cat were well taken care of! Also very flexible with timing and willing to work with me even though it was short notice. Great experience overall!”
“Second time using Ashley + her family and they’re the sweetest. She tells me he’s good with her dogs and kids and sends good updates/photos. Definitely will be our go-to family anytime they’re available!”
“I highly recommend Makayla Pet Sitters! My three dogs received the care and attention they needed, and she kept me posted on my babies. Mayla is very friendly, trustworthy and dependable. You will not be disappointed!”
About: I’m a reliable and responsible pet sitter with previous experience caring for pets and house sitting. I’ve been around animals my whole life and understand the importance of following routines, being attentive, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I already care for my own dog and am used to planning my day around feeding, walks, and making sure pets get the attention they need. My schedule is flexible, and I’m very responsible about showing up on time and following the routine each owner provides. I know how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable while their owner is away. I follow all instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and any special needs. I’m also very respectful of the home and make sure everything is kept clean and secure. Most importantly, I give each pet plenty of attention, patience, and care.
About: My whole life, my family has had cats, dogs, hampsters, bunnies- you name it! While away at college during the school year,I don’t get to see my furry friends as much anymore, so I love every opportunity I get to spend with animals! It would be my pleasure to give your pets the love and care that they deserve! I’m currently only enrolled in a few in person classes at TAMU, so my days are pretty much free meaning I have plenty of time for your pets! If you wish to have your pet stay in my home, I have a fully fenced yard and more than enough room for them in my home.
“Gisella followed my instructions perfectly, and she provided excellent status updates for the duration of my trip--especially when Abbey got an upset stomach. We collaborated on how best to care for Abbey, and she made a full recovery before I returned. In short, I could tell my dog was in a great place while I was gone.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I grew up in a home with multiple dogs—both small and large—so I’m very comfortable handling different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I previously worked at PetSmart as both a pet care associate and a dog trainer, where I gained valuable experience working with dogs of all temperaments, as well as cats and exotic pets. My training background allows me to better understand animal behavior, reinforce good habits, and handle pets with patience and confidence. Outside of work, I’m known for rescuing stray animals and even helping injured wildlife whenever I can—animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently have two dogs, two cats, and a snake of my own, so I truly understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. Whether your pet needs structured care, playtime, walks, or just extra love and attention, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I’m reliable, attentive, and dedicated to making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I work full-time Monday through Friday, but I’m available for drop-in visits in the mornings, during lunch, and after 4 PM. I also offer boarding in my home and can provide a safe, comfortable environment for your pet while you’re away. On weekends, I have full availability and can dedicate my time to caring for your pet, whether that’s drop-ins, walks, or boarding. I’m flexible and happy to work with your schedule to make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and two friendly, well-socialized dogs who love having company. When I’m away from home, I crate my dogs to ensure they stay safe and secure, and I’m happy to follow your preferences regarding crating or routines for your pet. I always take a thoughtful, attentive approach to introductions and supervision to make sure all pets feel comfortable and stress-free in my home. You can feel confident knowing your pet will be in a safe, structured, and loving environment while in my care.
About: I began pet sitting in high school, visiting clients’ homes to feed their dogs and give them playtime while owners were away. Over time, this grew into a passion for understanding canine behavior. My interest in psychology, especially behavioral and humanistic approaches, along with my love for dogs, led me to earn my certification as a professional trainer. Whether I’m doing drop-ins, walks, boarding, or housesitting, I ensure every dog is enriched and cared for. I welcome all breeds and temperaments as if they were my own. My schedule is flexible for all types of dog care—except boarding and daycare. I use positive reinforcement to help keep your pup both physically and mentally stimulated. I'm versatile and reliable, and I’m fluent in both English and Spanish to ensure smooth communication with all pet parents. I offer companionship and affection to pets in the absence of their owners, maintaining their routine and minimizing stress. In addition I maintain contact with the owners to update them on their pet's activities and wellbeing.

About: I’ve grown up with pets and taken care of friends and family’s animals. My dogs in particular had health issues, such as diabetes, that taught me a deeper level of animal care.

I do not have work or any other regular obligations during the weekend, too. I can bring the pet to my home where I live with my sister. I do not have a backyard, but I do have parks I can take them to or paths to walk on. Taking care of pets at the owners house is an option. In the past, I have stayed overnight at the owners house since their dogs felt uneasy being alone at night. Overall, I am flexible with what you and your pet are comfortable with.
About: I grew up with animals my entire life, and have always watched neighbors and family's pets throughout the years.

I have a flexible schedule as a realtor with my associates help, and can make appointments around pet's schedules. I'm flexible weekdays and weekends for the most part. I have a large fenced backyard and a big dog who loves to play with dogs of all sizes. My year old cat loves to play with my dog and could be separated if need be. Can kennel visiting dog if preferred.
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Steep Hollow
Tamara was great with King. He was recovering from surgery and needed meds while I was gone, so I was pretty stressed about leaving him, but she made the whole process easy. She kept me updated, took good care of him, and gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. King came back happy and healthy. I'd definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy sitter.
Olivia was wondering. We came from out of town and wanted to find someone to watch our pup in the same town. She was super friendly, responsive and took great care of our pup. We ended up having to cut our trip short due to our son getting sick and she was great about making sure our pups things were packed and ready to go. I would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!!

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 Steep Hollow 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 Steep Hollow.
<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 Steep Hollow 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.
