About: I have a 4-year-old Vizsla who keeps me active and reminds me daily how much joy dogs bring to life. I also grew up with a Rottweiler, so caring for dogs has been part of my life for years. I genuinely love playing with dogs, getting outside, going for walks, and simply enjoying their company. I’m patient, attentive, and enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and what makes them happiest. Whether your dog wants an active day or just some good company and attention, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. I’m an early riser and naturally enjoy starting the day with movement and time outside. Walks, playtime, drives, getting outside with a favorite toy, and simply spending time with a dog fit easily into my routine. I enjoy being active and would much rather have a dog alongside me than leave them sitting around all day. I’m also happy to slow things down when a dog prefers a relaxed pace, some attention, and a comfortable place to hang out. I treat every dog in my care like they’re my own. I pay attention to their personality, routine, energy level, and any instructions their pet parent provides. I’m careful with leashes, doors, gates, food, and unfamiliar environments, and I won’t put a dog in a situation where I’m not confident they’re safe. I also believe communication builds trust. I’ll follow your instructions, keep your home clean and respected, and provide updates so you know your dog is doing well. At my home, there's fenced in back yard and plenty of room inside for them to safely explore and play or relax.
“We absolutely LOVED her! She was seriously the best dog sitter. Our dogs looked so happy with her, she was incredibly attentive, sweet, caring, and kept us updated throughout the entire stay. You can genuinely tell how much she cares about the dogs she watches. We will 100% be booking with her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pets!”


About: I’ve had the joy of having pets all my life. I’ve always had a passion for saving animals who were displaced or hurt. I currently have a cat and a dog who I adopted as rescue animals when they were young. I have experience with all sizes and ages of animals. I have lots of energy and enjoy walking dogs, taking them to dog parks, and giving them all my attention. The love I have received from animals makes my heart soar and feel it’s a gift that I’ve been entrusted with receiving. I’d appreciate the opportunity to be in your pets life as their caregiver when you are unable to be there. I’m currently working part-time with a flexible schedule so I have plenty of availability to take care of your furry family member(s). I’m available usually any day of the week for drop-ins and walks. I walk my dog every day in my neighborhood plus we have a backyard where we go to play to get some energy out. I have many toys and treats for both my animals to keep them stimulated. We like fetch - both the dog and the cat enjoy playing. My cat will catch toys in the air and bring them to me! He loves attention and playtime. I make sure there is always food and water available and treats when they do something great, or cute ;) While taking care of your pet, we could do any of that. I do like to let the dog choose how much energy they can give so I don’t over due it. I’ll need your guidance on what your dog likes best and how I can give them the best care to meet their needs.
“Fantastic sitter! They took great care of our two dogs and kept us updated throughout their stay. Our pups were happy, well cared for, and clearly received lots of attention. We felt completely at ease while away and would gladly book with them again. Highly recommend!”


About: I've taken care of both cats and dogs since I was about 10 years old. Growing up, we frequently had both cats and dogs in the house. I also volunteered at an animal shelter for about 2 years before working there for 1 year. I have pet sat for a family every summer for the last 8 years or so and I also worked at a pet boarding place 1 summer. I'm currently working part-time so I will absolutely have time to take care of your pet! I can stay overnight and take care of a pet, and only work an average of six hours a day so I still have plenty of time to spend with a pet! I spend a lot of time hanging out with and getting to know each pet in order to meet their needs. I can play, walk, and feed pets as well as just be a calming presence if that is helpful for them.

“Jenna is great! She cares about your animals and will follow any instructions you leave and is sure to check in with you. Also she takes great pictures of your pet for you. Will be rebooking!”

About: I keep close to the animals I’m sitting for, senior to young, I do whatever it takes to keep them comfortable and safe. I can sit outside of just dogs and cats, experienced with reptiles too I do online schooling and I have most of my time to spend watching and caring for your pets. I can watch on weekends and weekdays whenever you need it. I watch your pet 24/7, I know how to give CPR to dogs in case of an emergency. Let me know If there’s any medical conditions and / or things you’d like to be known before sitting.
About: I’ve always loved and cared for animals since I was a small child. I have always talked about being a Vet Tech since a very young age, I’ve volunteered at a Veterinary Clinic where I was able to assist in surgery, take the animals for walks, feed and clean after them, and also assist with shots and all of their needs. I also have recommendation letters from the Veterinarian and employees from the Veterinary Clinic. I will send you updates throughout the day to keep you posted on how your pet is doing. I would love the opportunity to meet and care for your pet and put you at ease while you are away. I look forward to being someone that your pet loves as much as they love you. I work from home so I have lots of flexibility, there’s always attention and affection given to your pet throughout the day. There’s also plenty of time to take your pet out for walks and potty breaks as needed. I live in a great community with sidewalks to walk your dogs and there’s also a dog park. I’m about allowing your pet to freely roam my home’s designated areas if they are house trained. I will crate upon request or when necessary. Making sure your pet is comfortable, feels at home, and also is happy and safe is my number one priority.
About: I am a pre-veterinary medical student in college. I have studied animal behavior and have participated in disease labs, so I am very familiar with the symptoms of possible illnesses. I am passionate about caring for sick or hurt animals and have over 2 years of veterinary experience as an assistant and intern. I have a wide range of expertise, from puppy to end-of-life care. Some animals entrusted under my supervision have been very sick and require medical treatment, including seizures, dialysis treatment, and cancer. I have experience with reactive and anxious dogs, and I welcome all in my care, even if more patience is required. I know how challenging it can be to leave a pet while traveling, so my ideology is that I take care of the pet how I would like mine to be treated. I would be happy to take care of your fur baby while you are away:) I am currently taking my remainder classes online, so my schedule is more flexible. I am happy to walk your dog multiple times per day if needed. I prioritize communication with owners so instructions are left clear to minimize accidents. My priority is the pet's safety and overall well-being. I know and respect the meaning behind body language and have a basic understanding of first aid in case of an emergency. I constantly update pet parents before and after walks/ visits to ensure safety.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for all my life I’ve had a family dog and also puppy sat my sisters dog while also having my own. I’m a veteran with a lot of time on my hands and would love to spend it with your pups. I have plenty of time to play fetch or lounge around which ever your pup wants to do. I currently cannot board in my own home , but have no problem stopping by yours for daily walks and drop ins with your pups.
About: I have great patience when it comes to caring for pets, I will take the time to ensure quality walks and play time or training. I graduated college with a Bachelor’s degree in Science and while I am searching for my future career, I am full time available to assist with watching/walking dogs I have 2 dogs and 2 cats at home, we care for them and give them attention everyday. I have plenty of experience and I am highly active, so play sessions or walks will be great exercise for them. I will take care of your pet's environment/home environment and will ensure that your pet is comfortable with me. All tasks and detailed instructions will be followed.
About: Look no further for your pet’s new favorite friend! My personal philosophy about pet care is that just like humans, each animal has their own personality and requires unique attention. With over four years of private boarding experience, I strive to make sure pet care in my home looks just like it does in yours. So if your pet has a routine you like to follow, I can do that! After years of volunteering with the SPCA, I’ve cared for all manner of dogs. Your pet will be in great hands. With me, your dog can expect the following amenities: - Warm cuddles on demand - Premium satisfying scratches (my specialty is behind the ear 😉) - Live HD 4k squirrel-viewing from my large backyard glass sliding door 🐿️ (we get tons of squirrel traffic!) - Unlimited in-and-out privileges - Brisk walks and lively fetch sessions - Relaxing sunbathing in our many sun spots around the house Your dog will feel right at home! Since I’m at home most of the day, your four-legged family member will be given lots of attention. I’m able to closely monitor them and ensure they get ample individual care. I have a fenced yard and no children in the house, so your pet will have full range of my home. They can go outside as often as they’d like.
“So thankful for Shamareya!! She was gracious to agree to watch my kitty last minute. She took great care of my Rupert, super communicative, and kind. Thank you so much!!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and currently share my home with two sweet Pocket Beagles, Elvis and Ann-Margret. In addition to caring for my own pups, I’ve watched dogs for family, friends, and neighbors, so I understand that every dog has a unique personality and specific needs. I offer more than basic care. I can help with puppy housetraining and provide mental stimulation games for dogs who need extra engagement. For those who prefer a calm environment, I create a peaceful, stress-free space where they can feel safe and relaxed. Whether your dog is playful, shy, or still learning, I tailor my care to make them feel loved and at ease. I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to care for your pups throughout the day. I provide regular morning and evening walks, playtime, and plenty of attention in between. I offer both daycare and boarding on weekdays and weekends, so your pet will always be in good hands, no matter your schedule. Your pup’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard that is regularly treated for pests, along with two friendly resident dogs who love to host new friends. Inside, I run four Blue air purifiers to ensure clean, allergen-free air throughout the home. Fresh, filtered water is available both indoors and outdoors, refreshed twice daily. I provide clean, comfy dog beds in two sizes, with all bedding washed between stays. Outdoor beds are also available for pups who enjoy lounging in the fresh air. A toy basket is ready for playtime, and complimentary crates with thick, soft blankets are available upon request. Blankets are also washed between boardings. Whether your pup prefers play, rest, or quiet time, I offer a safe, clean, and welcoming environment to help them feel right at home while you’re away.

Our home is gentle, structured, and full of love, perfect for dogs who thrive with consistency, warmth, and a nurturing touch.

I keep a calm, structured environment where your furry loved ones are supervised, safe, and treated like family. I make sure each one feels included and supported, whether they need extra reassurance, confidence‑building, or simply a cozy place to relax. I’m attentive to their emotional needs as much as their physical ones, and I always follow each pet parent’s instructions with care🫶 When caring for furry loved ones in a pet parent’s home, I respect their routines exactly as written and follow instructions closely. I maintain a clean, organized space, keep feeding and medication schedules precise, and follow all household rules. I supervise pups closely, make sure they feel secure in their familiar environment, and send consistent updates so pet parents always know their furry loved ones are safe, comfortable, and happy🌞 I also pay attention to small details, from their favorite resting spot to their unique quirks, so they feel fully supported while you’re away.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sugar Land
Rachel was awesome. For a request to be last minute she is great. I would recommend her to anyone. She was great with my dogs, one of my dogs are elderly and she made sure that she was well taken care of. She also sent me pictures of my dogs when she was finish with her shift of taking care of them.

I would 100% recommend Kaitlyn B. She met and exceeded all of our expectations. She was very personable and easy to communicate with and gave us peace of mind that our dogs were in good hands while we were away. A bonus that made me smile was her daily updates that showed she was paying close attn to our dogs- she really captured each of their personalities and habits. I hope she is available next time we go out of town!

JaQuia was absolutely amazing with my dog! From start to finish, her communication was excellent, keeping me updated and giving me complete peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear that she has a genuine passion for dogs and truly cares about their well-being. My dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. I highly recommend JaQuia to anyone looking for a reliable, professional, and caring sitter through Rover. We will definitely be booking with her again! 🐾

I cannot recommend Paul enough! Watching my older pug, Baillee, with special needs was no easy task, but Paul was absolutely fantastic. He was patient, attentive, and followed every detail of her care perfectly. Getting daily photos and sweet updates put my mind at ease while I was away. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pug! If you need a sitter who truly loves and understands senior dogs, look no further!"

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Sugar Land choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
