“Highly recommend Abigail! She was very responsive and respectful. Our girls really enjoyed their time with her. Abigail should be your first choice when caring for your pets. 😊👍🏻”
About: I have taken care of my friend’s and family’s dogs for many years now, and I am looking forward to helping other owners! I have grown up with my current senior dog and have had two cats, including my current one. I have also volunteered at the Humane Society numerous times to walk dogs and play/socialize with the cats. When pet sitting, I make sure to consistently check in with the owner and take care of any accommodations needed. I could play with pets all day, and am willing to take your dog on a run or jog with a leash! I have also had experience with giving liquid medication to dogs and following strict schedules. I will treat your pet like my own! I am available any day, any time!! Even if you need to book someone the same day, let me know! I am also used to spending multiple days at a time pet sitting for family, so no schedule is too long for me! I believe it is important to create a trusting and interactive bond with my client’s pet in order for them to have the best experience! However, I am also able to put my foot down when needed. I am willing to accommodate strict instructions such as medication, grooming, furniture limits, schedules, commands, etc., and household care if needed. The thing I appreciate most is clear instructions to ensure your pet’s safety. That being said, for my own pets’ safety, I will not accept pet sitting in my own home.
About: Hi! My name is John and I have always had a love for dogs all shapes and sizes. I own two bird dogs myself one of which I have here at school with me. That being said I work really well with high energy dogs with lots of drive as well as pups who prefer the easier way of life. I would love to make sure your pups can get the active and fun lifestyle they deserve. As mentioned earlier I own two labs and live with one here at Tarleton. This has helped me learn to work with high energy pups who need an active lifestyle. I treat every pet that I watch or walk as if they were my own by following a routine as closely as possible. I understand how important it is that pets have fresh and clean food and water whenever they need it and all the attention and affection they deserve.
About: As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you trust. I have a Goldendoodle, two Poodles, and three cats, and I’ve been pet sitting for 2 years. I’m experienced with both dogs and cats and provide reliable, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs. Caring for animals is something I do every day. Between my dogs and cats, I’m already used to feeding, exercising, playing with, and looking after pets. Pet sitting fits naturally into my routine, and I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they’re well cared for. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I follow their regular routine, provide fresh food and water, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention to keep them happy, comfortable, and safe while you’re away!
“First time working with Sarah and she was great, very communicative. Quickly responded to our last minute request and showed up on time. Will definitely work with her again when the opportunity presents itself. Thank you! Really appreciate you!!”
About: I grew up around a wide variety of animals and I've always had pets to take care of. I have experience working with more timid, shy natured animals, and being able to create a trusting and safe environment for them is very fulfilling. I have a very flexible work schedule that allows me to be free for weekends, overnights or a week or two at a time. Giving me plenty of time to give your pet all the attention they need! I live in a very safe neighborhood, with a gated fence and a dog park nearby to let your animals have some extra freedom and place to play.
“Autumn did a wonderful job with my Rover drop-in visits. She took great care of my cat and my bird, and I really appreciated how conscientious she was throughout the entire time. She paid close attention to their needs and made sure everything was handled just right. Her communication was excellent. She kept me updated regularly, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. It was clear she genuinely cared about my pets and their well-being. I would absolutely recommend Autumn to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and thoughtful pet sitter.”
“Zoeie is the absolute best! She loves my girls and takes care of them like they are her one! Brings them treats and toys keeping them happy! Zoeie has taken care of them so well while I’ve been at work and school. Absolutely recommend her!”
About: I have loved dogs ever since I could remember, I feel like being able to trust your sitter is going to care for your beloved pet is so important, and that's the service I provide I am currently not working just a student so I have the time to take care of your pet, my schedule does vary depending on the week but I will always communicate and do my best to accommodate. I currently am unable to board any dogs at this time, but hopefully later on in the year this will change and I will be more available to board
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for over 10 years! I have had two family dogs and over 12 cats. I currently have two cats that live with me in college and they are my pride and joy. Growing up, I was the go-to girl for walking and taking care of dogs and cats as well as boarding. I have boarded big dogs to small dogs and all cats. I love to go on walks and spend time with animals to get to know them. I am currently a biology major at tarleton and planning to go to vet school in 2024. I have a huge passion for animals big and small. I am flexible and reliant and willing to whatever it takes to make you and your pet happy and satisfied. Thank you for taking the time to read and I hope to meet you soon:) I have a mostly open schedule, I work part time at HEB and I got to school fun time. Nonetheless, I always will make time for ur pets and am flexible. I am open to board on any day of the week. I’m my home, I currently have two cats who I make sure are treated the very best. They get lots of toys to play and cuddles throughout the day. With dogs, I will meet and exceed your requests for what is asked. And make sure your fur babies are in loving and caring hands:)
About: I’ve owned all sorts of animals all my life, everything from donkeys to ferrets, cats and dogs are a breeze, even the most difficult of characters are easy for me. I’m a full time college student and working as much as I can, im not free certain days of the week/weekend, but I love to pick up last minute sits and help out where I can. I have a very large field and park in my backyard, while it’s not fenced in as long as I’m provided with a well fitted leash/harness I’ll take them out as much as they’d like. For cats, I have multiple cat trees and litter boxes, as well as toys and furniture for lounging
About: I’ve grown up around animals and now care for my own cats, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities—whether they’re super social, a little shy, or full-on chaotic. I’m patient and calm, which helps a lot when pets are adjusting to a new person or environment. I’m good at picking up on behavior changes and routines quickly, so I make sure pets feel as close to “normal life” as possible while their owners are away. I also have experience with basic training habits like litter consistency, reinforcing routines, and helping nervous pets settle in. What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m very attentive to detail, I don’t rush interactions, and I actually enjoy spending quiet time just letting pets warm up at their own pace. I also understand how important communication is, so I always keep owners updated and comfortable while they’re away. Pet care fits into my routine alongside my full-time job. I work Monday through Thursday from 6:00 AM to 5:30 PM, so those days I’m available for early morning check-ins and evening visits after work. I make sure any pets I’m caring for still get consistent attention, feeding, and litter care even on my workdays. On Fridays, weekends, and any time I’m off, I have a lot more flexibility and can do longer visits, more frequent check-ins, or spend extra time with pets if needed. I’m very used to balancing a structured schedule, so I plan ahead and stay consistent with care routines. Since I’m already a cat owner, daily pet care is part of my normal life anyway, so adding Rover visits feels natural and easy to manage responsibly. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect and responsibility as my own. I follow your instructions closely so your pet can stay on their normal routine as much as possible—feeding times, litter box care, medications if needed, and any specific habits or preferences they’re used to. On my workdays (Monday–Thursday), I do check-in visits, usually mornings and evenings. I make sure pets are fed, have fresh water, litter boxes are clean, and they’re doing okay overall. I also take time to give them attention so they don’t feel rushed or lonely. On weekends, I offer in-home sitting and overnight stays. This allows me to spend more consistent time with your pet, keep their routine steady, and provide comfort and companionship throughout the night. I make sure the home stays clean, calm, and secure while you’re away. I understand how important trust is when someone is in your home, so I’m very respectful, careful, and communicative. I always provide updates so you feel reassured and know your pet is safe and cared for.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Stephenville
Kailei was extremely accommodating and communicative when watching my dog, Daisy. Although Daisy was shy at first, it seems that Kailei was able to get her to warm up in the short time they were together. I received pictures at each check-in and came back to a well cared for pup and a home in the same condition it was left in. Would definitely use Kailei again!
Autumn did a wonderful job with my Rover drop-in visits. She took great care of my cat and my bird, and I really appreciated how conscientious she was throughout the entire time. She paid close attention to their needs and made sure everything was handled just right. Her communication was excellent.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Stephenville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
