“Jasmine was so great! She sent a lot of pictures and updates. She accommodated our puppies needs and helped us feel comfortable leaving him. They offered to let us see the space he would be staying. Everything was very clean!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who would be thrilled to care for your pets like they’re part of my own family. I’ve had dogs my entire life and have had cats for the past 7 years. My home is currently filled with 7 animals of my own—2 dogs and 5 cats! They’re definitely my favorite part of home life (other than my husband, of course lol). I regularly care for the pets of my family and friends, including my brother-in-law’s dog, who I watch very frequently, as well as my family’s 2 dogs and cat. I also occasionally care for a close friend’s dog. One of my longer pet-sitting experiences was caring for my cousin’s dog for 3 months while she recovered from a broken leg. We are an extremely pet-friendly household and genuinely love having animals around. When friends come over, we’re always telling them to bring their pets! My schedule is currently completely open, and as an at-home wife, I’m able to be home with your pets for the majority of the day most days. I’m happy to provide plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, walks, and cuddles so your pets feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I’m comfortable caring for all kinds of animals and would love the opportunity to get to know your pets and their individual personalities and routines. I know how important it is to leave your pets with someone you trust, and I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I would want for my own. Our home is a very pet-friendly and welcoming environment, and our own pets are a huge part of our everyday life. We currently have 2 dogs and 5 cats, so we’re very comfortable with animals and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. Because I’m an at-home wife, I’m home the majority of the day and can provide frequent supervision, attention, and companionship. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions you provide. We have a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely get outside, play, and enjoy some fresh air. We also live right next to a park and creek, which gives us plenty of opportunities for walks and outdoor time for pets who enjoy exploring. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I want you to feel confident that they’re being cared for, loved, and treated like family while they’re with me. I also understand that not every pet is comfortable around other animals. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s personality and needs beforehand and make sure we have a plan that keeps everyone comfortable and safe. For pets who need or are more comfortable with their own separate space, we also run available to set up kennel(s). I’m happy to accommodate individual needs and make sure every pet has a safe and comfortable environment. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I know how difficult it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I want you to feel confident that they’re being cared for, supervised, loved, and treated like family while they’re with me.
“Our dog has anxiety and at seven years old has never done anything like this. She’s always just stayed with family, but Joel made her feel like family. 10/10 recommend!”
“Katrina took great care of our dogs while we were away for a week on vacation. She was very easy to work with and coordinate dropoff and pickup, and she was very understanding when we were running a bit late for pickup. She answered all our questions prior to boarding and followed all our instructions. She provided daily updates with a lot of photos, showing our dogs had a great time with her. Very happy with the boarding service and my dogs came home happy and healthy. Will definitely use Katrina for future boarding needs!”
About: I have alot of pet care experience. I had dogs since I was 5 years old and helped take care of them. I worked at petsmart for a year in pet care and I was a professional bather at petsmart. I helped take care of fish, birds, reptiles, dogs and cats. As well as having my own experience. 😊 Currently my schedule would be Weekend afternoons im avaliable. Reach out to me if you need someone to watch your pet I might be free that day! Anything you need or want me to take care of your animals I will do. I will not enter any rooms you do not want me to enter and I will make sure your pet is looked after and taken care of
“Katelyn and her family have been so accommodating! My schedule can be a bit unpredictable whether it's work or vacation. Katelyn works with me on if I'm going to be early or a bit late. My only complaint is that she can be booked on the weekends I need her! Clearly others will agree that she takes great care of your fur babies. Brody always looks happy and relaxed in her care. The extra attention from the kiddos helps!”
“Jaydn and her whole family was amazing! She sent me pictures and kept me updated my whole trip. She replied timely and was so sweet no matter how many times I texted her to check in on martini! Martini seemed so happy and almost didn’t want to come home he had so much fun, it was like doggy heaven for him! I know he was well taken care of, loved on and spoiled while in her care!”
“If you're looking for a sitter who will treat your dogs like family, Elle is the one. We booked her to watch our two pups, Remy and Nala, and from start to finish she went above and beyond in every way. She sent us thoughtful, detailed messages about how the dogs were doing, and reading them made being away so much easier. She told us about Remy going wild in the sprinklers with her kids (he got so excited it was hilarious) and how he played "ice cream man" in the playhouse. Even our more timid one, Nala, worked up the courage at her own pace to fit in throughout the week. Everyday they had a new adventure and I loved reading about it. Elle clearly has a gift with animals. She was communicative, warm, and so attentive to their personalities. We felt totally comfortable knowing they were in her care. We can't recommend Elle enough and will absolutely be booking her again. Thank you for loving our babies like your own!”
“Kaylee is amazing. She loves animals and always takes the best care of Jax. She keeps me updated with photos throughout his stay. Jax loves staying with her and her family. If you have a chance to book with her, I highly recommend her! 🐾❤️”
“Dustin took good care of my dogs. Dustin was patient with my shy girl. His dogs were fun playmates. Plenty of room to run. Safe, fenced backyard. Dustin supervised them while they were outside with the pool. He was responsive and sent lots of pictures and videos. We will have him sit Luna and Nova again.”
“We had such an amazing experience boarding our dog, Sabot! He can be a very nervous and anxious dog, so leaving him somewhere new had me a little worried. She was absolutely wonderful with him and was so patient, gentle, and understanding the entire time. 🐾❤️ It was clear that she truly cared about making him feel comfortable and safe, and that meant so much to us. We received great updates and felt reassured knowing he was in such good hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better boarding experience, and we will definitely be using her again! Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Thank you for the last minute help. My flight was delayed and Arshawna was very understanding and worked with me. She also kept me updated with pictures. I highly recommend her and will be a returning customer.”
“Kyra was amazing with our two dogs. Drop off and pick up were super easy. She had a beautiful back yard for them to play in along with a lovely home for them to cool off and be lazy in. I received updates on their stay along with acute photo. I'm already rebooking with her again!”
“My dogs loved their stay with Andrea! She is lovely and so is her family. They had a great time playing outside and relaxing indoors. She sent me photos throughout their stay as well, which I really appreciated.”
“Jessamy was awesome with our Loki. It can be difficult for Loki to open up to new people and surroundings but Loki felt comfortable almost immediately as I can tell from all the videos and photos of Loki provided to us by Jessamy. It was easy communicating with Jessamy before and during Loki’s stay and I was always at ease. Loki loved playing around with Artie and it just felt like the perfection match. It looked like there was plenty of activity for Loki which I look for with sitters since Loki can have a lot of energy. We will be utilizing Jessamy’s services again in the future and I would highly recommend her for anyone’s pup.”
“Wow!! I can’t say enough wonderful things about Thu Hang! She watched both of our loving, but playful fur boys. She did such a great job of playing with them and giving them time outside in her fenced yard to run around. Then they can inside and she cuddled them and loved on them like they were her own. She sent tons pics and updates to let us know they were well taken care of!! We will definitely ask Thu Hang to watch them again. I think Otto and Murphy considered her house their second home!😊”

She was absolutely wonderful with our two dogs! She was incredibly kind, responsive, and sent lots of pictures and regular updates, which gave my girlfriend and me great peace of mind while we were away. She was also extremely communicative and transparent throughout the stay and went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of. She was even willing to rearrange her work schedule when needed, which we really appreciated. She also went above and beyond when wrapping things up. Everything was packed up very neatly, and she even washed things in the dishwasher before leaving. You can really tell she takes pride in taking care of the dogs and making things easy for their owners. We would absolutely have her watch our dogs again!
Alexandra is so sweet and so good with my Oakley. She is also very accommodating. We’ve too often asked her to sit for us last minute and she has always been happy to do it. She sends pictures so that we can see what our baby is up to as well. And Oakley gets along well with her other dogs. She treats Oakley like one of her own.

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 Meet & Greet .
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 .
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
