About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and genuinely love spending time with them. I have had a cat since I was five years old and multiple dogs since I was seven, so caring for pets has always been a big part of my life. Over the years, I have pet sat for neighbors, family, and friends while they were away on long trips, helping with feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure their pets felt safe and comfortable at home. I always have both the pet’s and the owner’s best interest in mind, and I truly love helping animals whenever they need care, attention, or patience. I understand that every animal has a different personality, and I always take the time to help them feel comfortable and cared for. I have also volunteered at animal shelters, which has made me even more passionate about giving back and helping animals in any way I can. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and nervous at first, I will always treat them with kindness, patience, and lots of love. I am currently EMT school, studying to get my EMT license so my days consist of reading and studying. Additionally, I am a college athlete so I do try to work out almost every day and live in active lifestyle. I do not currently have a job because I am in EMT school, which means my schedule is extremely flexible and I would be able to bring study materials to your home or take breaks to come take care of the pets anytime! I always prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I have a pretty big backyard with a tall fence, so I can easily accommodate your animals and give them space to safely play and explore. I always make sure pets stick to their normal routines as closely as possible so they feel relaxed and secure while their owners are away. I am very patient with new animals and always take the time to learn their personalities, needs, and comfort levels. Your pet’s safety will always come first, and I will make sure they are always on a leash, walked only in the areas you designate, and placed in any crate or area you prefer when needed. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I will always treat them like my own and keep both the pet’s and owner’s best interests in mind.
“This was our first time using Rover and Crystal, and we had a great experience! We opted for the house sitting and she gave us daily updates and our pup looked happy and relaxed. We’ve already rebooked her for the end of the month! Thank you Crystal!”
“She’s just the best. Our animals are happy, healthy and well taken care of. We feel safe leaving them with her—it’s the best you could ask! Thanks again Magdalena”
“Nicole's the best, she helped me with my Cubbie when he wasn't well. He's well because Nicole cared about his well being. Nicole is the Best, me and Cubbie appreciate her time.”
“Tiffany was absolutely fantastic! She cared for our 8-month-old puppy, Disco, for 7 days/nights at our home, and we couldn’t be more pleased. Tiffany's communication was top notch-she sent photos every morning and kept us updated throughout the day, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. She took wonderful care of Disco, ensuring she was happy and well-cared-for. It was clear that she also respected our home-when we returned, the house was clean, and everything was how we left it. Tiffany went above and beyond, and we will 100% be rebooking her in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Ali was great! She kept me informed of anything out of the norm. It is so nice to finally find someone I can actually trust with my dog/home. I look forward to using her in the future. Thanks Ali!!!”
“Mariah has watched Bear and Ollie over two different weekends in our home. We couldn’t ask for a better sitter! She goes above and beyond every time—sending lots of photo updates, giving the pups tons of love, and even helping with little things like brushing out ear mats from roughhousing. We always come home a clean house, and we’re so grateful to have found her. We will absolutely book again!”
“Melissa did a great job of taking care of our three dogs . She house sat our One Golden , a mutt and a young sheppard. She texted us with questions and updates . We were able to leave without worrying about our babies. What a blessing she is. Great dog sitter !”
“Clair was great! Was very attentive, sent pictures and notes about how my 2 kitties were doing and even read through my crazy long cat manual/notes. Will definitely be reaching out again!”
“Jeffrey took care of our two dogs and house for a week, and we were so pleased with his careful, loving handling of animals and home. He communicated regularly and we were able to enjoy our time away without worrying. Highly recommend Jeffrey! Super reliable and great to work with.”
“Brittany was amazing!! She didn’t mind meeting to go through things and was very pleasant and easy to communicate with the entire process. She sent lots of updates and pictures and took great care of both my dogs. We really appreciate her and will be booking again!”
“Cienne took great care of my pups! She stayed at my home and sent lots of updates which I love. My girls looked very happy and comfortable. Will definitely have her over again!”
“Christine has been a great sitter for my two dogs- one who can be very slow to trust sitters and she always keeps me informed with pictures and dogs are happy!”
“Carol was absolutely incredible! She was so kind, so sweet, so communicative—everything was so easy with her. Our dogs absolutely loved her and she went above and beyond with them, as well as taking care of our home while she stayed here. We will absolutely be using her again!”
Sunset Valley pet parents share their Rover experiences
Lauren was great! She did a meet and greet and got to know my pets and their needs before I left for my trip. Since my dog is a senior dog and needs assistance with walking at times and takes multiple daily medications I am always a little nervous to leave him. She provided photo updates frequently so I never had to wonder if the animals were okay. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation and not worry at all about my pets!
Jeffrey took care of our two dogs and house for a week, and we were so pleased with his careful, loving handling of animals and home. He communicated regularly and we were able to enjoy our time away without worrying. Highly recommend Jeffrey! Super reliable and great to work with.
Gustavo was the best house and dog sitter we’ve had and we’ve used quite a few sitters through Rover. He sent multiple pictures and updates every day which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious our dogs were well cared for and loved. We would absolutely book Gustavo again and highly recommend him!
Mary is amazing!! She always takes the time to give each of our cats lots of care and attention, and has great updates. She went above and beyond this week - we feed a stray cat that hasn’t been doing well recently, and she was able to get him an intake to the Austin Animal Shelter. I will always trust my pets with Mary 🤍
Lauren was incredibly communicative and responsive. She kept me updated throughout the evening and sent tons of adorable pictures of Roxy, which really put my mind at ease. It was clear from the photos and her messages that Lauren genuinely cares about the animals she watches. She seemed so loving and attentive with Roxy, giving her the comfort and attention she needed while I was gone. Knowing that Lauren was spending the night with her made me feel so much better about leaving my girl behind. . I highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter.
Laura was AMAZING. I have two very energetic but different personality dogs and she was amazing with both of them. Her communication was amazing. she took care of my house so nicely, it’s like she was never here! And most importantly my dogs were so cared for that I don’t even think they noticed we were gone. I appreciate her so much!!!
We absolutely loved Sidney! She took such great care of our dog while we were away and gave us complete peace of mind throughout our trip. She kept our home spotless, communicated regularly with updates, and was always easy to reach whenever we had questions. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We highly recommend Sidney and hope to book with her again for our next trip!
Katie was phenomenal! We will absolutely be booking her again in the future. She communicated exceptionally well, played with and loved all of my babies equally, and went above and beyond while caring for them. She also kept the house super clean, respected all house rules, and did an amazing job overall. We highly recommend her!
