“Kimmie is always my go to person. This time she had some issues with one of our pets getting sick. The directions we left her were confusing so she called us. I always appreciate receiving a call from Kimmie, especially to let me know one of our pets was sick. We cleared up the medication instructions and when I got home my pet was well on the way back to health. Thank you Kimmie for being so responsive and calling me.”
“Tammy was fantastic! Outside of being prompt and incredibly neat, she took such great care of our 3 pups. They were in such great spirits when we returned and we will absolutely have Tammy come to watch them again in the future!”
“Samara was great! Very communicative, friendly, and now BFFs with my cat Winston. 🐈⬛ the house is spotless and she made my life much easier not having to worry about these babies on this last minute trip. Thanks Samara! 🐶🐱🐱”
“I am so happy I found Elizabeth here! From the moment I saw how my dogs approached her during the meet and greet, I knew she was perfect for The Littles. Great, timely communication, warm natured, took great care of Calliope and Collin. I needed last minute help and was glad her calendar was open. Highly recommended.”
“Jennifer came and met Chase twice before we had to leave and he bonded really quick with her. She also was very personable and clear on what I was looking for and the desires for our boy. Would absolutely use again and recommend.”
About: I’ve pet sat for family and friends for many years. From small dogs to Pit bulls and Huskies . Puppies who are still learning how to walk on leashes to senior dogs who are just wanting to cuddle..all dogs deserve kindness and love even if they aren’t my own. I work full time Monday- Thursday, and have my 2 year old doggo with me when I’m working. I wanted to help those who needs someone to walk their dog on Fridays while they’re at work or away for the weekend for business or a quick trip. At home my dog is like my baby. I did a lot of dog training with her when we first got her, so I do know the basics. With others dogs, I want to be able to gain their trust and for them to realize that even though their humans aren’t home they can be trusted with a kind hearted and safe person. Also who doesn’t love to get pets, cuddles and treats ?!
“Jessica was excellent. She kept us in the loop the whole time we were gone and was able to manage both of my dogs which is no small feet. I will be using her again in the future.”
About: Hello there! I’m Nina Simone and a student from Texas State University on summer break hoping to care for your furry friends! I’m new to the app but not new to the puppy-loving game!!! I’ve taken care and have been a dog sitter for the last 7 years now as I’ve had the pleasure of sitting those of my friends and family members of all sizes, ages, and breeds! I have a good deal of flexible availability throughout the week and am joyous to accept last minute requests if necessary! I work another part time job that is accommodating I can crate your dog if needed and have a pretty spacious backyard for them to roam,potty, and play! Will ensure that they are happy and healthy when in my care!!
“Highly recommend Bella! My husband and I frequently go on longer trips and I've never seen my cat so content after we've been gone! He obviously felt safe, loved, taken care of, and so much more. Will definitely be booking again.”
“Jeremy was excellent with our three dogs over the holiday weekend. Despite the bad weather, they got plenty of exercise, and the house and yard were very clean when we returned. We would definitely have Jeremy back to watch our dogs.”
About: Hi there! I have experience house/pet sitting for my colleagues and feel Rover is perfect for me to get to love and care for pets as I no longer have any of my own. I had a Dachshund for 17 years and have an extra soft spot for senior pets. I’ve also fostered in the past! Because I work remotely full time, I’m able to be at your home full time to give pets more companionship, supervision, potty breaks, medications, and consistency throughout the day rather than leaving them alone for long periods. I also understand how important trust and communication are while you’re away so I love sending photo and video updates if owners enjoy them. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, feeding schedule, medications, and any special instructions. I treat every home respectfully and every pet with the same care, patience, and affection I would want for my own.
About: I'm an animal lover! I always had animals growing up; having cats & dogs. Also had a guinea pig, a chinchilla, several birds, a turtle, bunnies and bearded dragons. Our furbabies are like our children! I am a professional petsitter, fostering dogs & cats, training them and rescuing animals. Currently, I have 4 cats (mine) & 2 bearded dragons and 1 small dog (mom's). I have experiences with seniors and blind furbabies. I also have experiences dealing with flight risk, severe anxiety pets and oral medication as well as injections. **DROP-IN VISIT** I live in Taylor, I can travel to Hutto, Granger, southeast of GT, East of Round Rock, Thorndale and Coupland. **BOARDING - Requirements: * Non-aggressive/low/medium energy (must be ok with other pets) * 100% house-trained includes trained to not chew on household items * Current on all vaccinations and flea prevention * Male felines must be neutered I ask you to provide food and bedding for your furbabies because every pet is different, has different lifestyles and eating/sleeping habits, toys. I have plenty of bowls and plenty of crates (XS, S, M, L, XL & XXL) including a 3 tier crate (for cats) if needed. My schedule is flexible, I'm almost always home. If weather permits, I enjoy going out for long hikes or going to parks/neighborhood for walks. ** Boarding & Housesitting - I'm available 7 days a week. The potty break/meal schedule is flexible on my end. They can go out often for potty breaks, to explore, fetch, and enjoy the sun as they please. Also, will provide outdoor play with engagement of other pups and can do some training as well. ** Housesitting - I will spend the nights with them. Sometimes I will be away for a few hours unless you instruct me for a specific time, such as how long it is ok to leave your pets alone, I will follow your preference. They are welcome to tag along for the ride if they enjoy car rides. -- During my free time I volunteer as a pet rescue member with Trapping, Rescue and Pet Recovery Service (TRAPRS), a non-profit organization. I have been with TRAPRS since they were founded in 2019. When I'm scheduled to pet sit, I will not be available to do a rescue. Only time I'll be away is if someone is able to secure an animal, Ill be out for a quick scan for microchip or if I'm scheduled to drop-in to visit other clients' homes. (I want to be transparent about what I do). I know it can be stressful leaving your family member with a stranger, but you can be confident that your furbaby/ies will be treated as one of the family; given plenty of love, hugs, belly scratches, treats, play time and walks during their stay. I have a fenced yard for your pup(s) to explore, do their business, enjoy the fresh air & flirt with the sun, and play fetch. I will send photos and videos of your furbaby having a great time! You are welcome to reach out to check on them at any time. They will be in good paws!
About: I’ve been working as a veterinary technician since 2021 and am currently continuing my education through the Penn Foster Veterinary Technician program. I have experience in both general practice and specialty medicine, and I currently work part-time in Internal Medicine at an emergency/specialty hospital in Austin. I’m very comfortable caring for pets of all ages and needs, including seniors, anxious pets, and those requiring medications or a little extra support. I’ve worked with a wide variety of animals throughout my life, including cats, dogs, birds, reptiles, and fish. I’m Fear Free certified and trained in low-stress handling, and I always prioritize making pets feel safe, calm, and comfortable in my care. I’m also RECOVER CPR certified, which means I’m trained in pet CPR and emergency life support. Whether your pet needs medications, extra patience, or just a calm and caring presence, they’ll be in capable hands with me! I've transitioned from FT to PT vet tech schedule, so I have mostly open availability for drop-in visits, house sitting, and night boarding at my own home (reserved only for feline friends). My schedule includes mornings, evenings, and weekends. Pet care is already a huge part of my daily life, so fitting in visits and maintaining consistent routines for your pets comes naturally to me. I do my best to be flexible and will always communicate clearly about availability to make sure your pet receives reliable and consistent care! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In your home, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible while providing attentive, low-stress care. I’m trained to monitor for any signs of illness or discomfort and can confidently administer medications, including oral, topical, and injectable treatments if needed. If boarding in my home, I live in a spacious two-story house with a large, fenced backyard. I also have a secure catio for supervised outdoor time for kitties who enjoy it. I always introduce pets slowly and thoughtfully to ensure they feel safe and comfortable in a new environment. With my medical background, CPR certification, and Fear Free approach, you can trust that your pet will be cared for with both compassion and professional-level attention.
“We had a lovely experience booking Andrea. We got lots of updates, pictures, and videos of our kitties. Andrea was very thoughtful and gave our cat his medicine even when we were about to be home so we had one less thing to do after a hectic day. I would definitely book again if our cats needed watching ☺️”
About: I’m new to the rover app but, I’m not new to taking care of fur babies! While growing up we always had pets. When I left for college I got a puppy because of how much I missed my pups at home. I potty trained him all on my own while also juggling being a student athlete. I want to help out the best I can, so put me to work:) I am a part time hitting coach in the evenings so, I will have plenty of time to help you with your fur babies. I am off every weekend. I can take your pets on walks or play fetch to get them moving. I also can sit and just love on your pups whenever you are at work or away for a bit.

Taylor pet parents share their Rover experiences
Our dogs had a wonderful time with Ashley! She took amazing care of our pups, and our home, for a long weekend trip. She was a great communicator before and during our vacation (sending lots of photos of and videos while we were away). I’d highly recommend Ashley if you’re looking for a sitter!
Diana was quick to respond and accept our request. She answered texts right away which gave me peace of mind, so I could relax and enjoy our vacation. She sent photos almost every day showing my clingy and needy dogs were in fact traitors and seemed to be getting along just fine without us. 😂 My dogs are very used to us being home and getting lots of attention. Boarding was not an option which makes it hard to leave for any length of time. The dogs took to Diana right away. They were given lots of attention and affection. It was nice not having to worry about them while we were gone.
Andrea (Ash) is a terrible Rover. Definitely don't hire her...... That way she'll always be available for my Cocoa when we need her. Okay, being serious now....if and when we ever need another Rover for our baby, you can rest assured we will be desperately trying get her again - she was wonderful with Cocoa and very with us. You could see it in the pictures. Cocoa was happy and loved while we were gone. We have been reluctant to take any trips because we aren't comfortable leaving our baby. But with Andrea, we both felt assured that she was in great hands. We will actually be much more likely to take trips if we can get Andrea to be our Rover in the future!
