“We cannot say enough good things about the care and love Alexis gave our pets. One dog can be a bit cranky and the other too overly excited. We were a little nervous for them to meet her, but they took to one another like long list best friends. Her communication and updates and pictures were more than we could’ve asked for. After day two of being out of town, we felt so at ease knowing they were in good and loving hands. Alexis has become our go to for all our care needs. Plus, the pups will need to see their new bestie as often as possible.”
About: I don't think I offer any specialized service. I am calm, experience, and caring individual that would treat your pet as if they were my own. I am home most of the day, so can be a companion to your pet, except for occasional trips to grocery store, walks, office visits, etc. I generally keep pets at home and don't offer my services to just any pets. I prefer small and well mannered pets that are fully vaccinated and cared for including taking a bath before arriving.
“From the moment I met Alyssa I knew she was the perfect person for my pets. She is so attentive and goes the extra mile to make sure my babies are happy and well. I love how detailed her updates were and never had to worry about my pets. I will definitely hire her again!”
“Kendall took great care of my dog—super attentive, always on time, and constantly keeping me updated. I can say she provided service in an extremely professional and caring way. I can’t hold back from saying how fantastic the care was and how flawlessly she did it. Every time I’ve worked with her, I’ve been happy, got the right service, and my dog received the best care.”
“Meg was fantastic with our dogs! She was very mindful of checking on them and seeing how hot it was outside to make they were getting overheated. Also got so many good pictures on my pets from her visits, will definitely be booking with her the next time I need a pet sitter.”
“Olivia was very pleasant and kind with my dog. She was willing to do a meet a greet before the drop in appointment. She was timely and sent pics after the visit. Would use again in the future.”
“Heather did a PHENOMENAL job with my two cats while I was away. One of my cats is slow to warm up to people and he was great with Heather. Heather made sure that they were fed, had water, and that their litter boxes were clean. The reports that I got daily really put me at ease while I was gone. I'm already planning on booking Heather again.”
“We were very pleased with Amy’s reliability & attention to detail while dropping in on our 2 kitties. She went above and beyond for us by also helping a neighbor with a lost kitty, retrieving an unexpected package & cleaning up after the kitties as if they were her own. Sent us many pictures along the way that made us feel confident that our pets were in the very best hands. We will be re-booking with Amy in the very near future. Thanks again, Amy! 😊”
“I needed somebody to go to my house and take care of my cats since my trip out of state got extended and Alexandria was very prompt with her responses, followed instructions very well, and got my babies taken care of! I would absolutely trust her in my house and with my babies again!”
“Caitlin was amazing with our lily girl! Super communicative and knowledgeable. Our babygirl was having a bit of tummy issues when we left on vacation and Caitlin helped us with recommendations and meds and kept us updated with everything while away! Because of her we were able to enjoy our vacation worry free! Will definitely be using her again!!”
“It was our first time using Kristina (and Rover) & we will never leave our dog with anyone else! She was absolutely amazing. We felt so at peace leaving our dog in her care. She gave such detailed messages & photos and we could tell she genuinely cares for our dog. She is amazing!”
“Charlie is so amazing! Charlie comes to walk our dog twice a week and always gives her all the love. Charlie always gives the best updates and takes great pictures. We are so grateful for Charlie!”
“Tamara took care of Sunny while I took a vacation. She spent the time and walked him as much as possible. Very happy with Sunny upon my return, all looked good in my home. This was my first time using Tamara and I will use her again if she is available.”
“Moriah does a great job on her drop ins. Even after the time period was over, she was messaging me to make sure I got back from my trip and when I was slow at responding, she was about to go over to the house to make sure that my cat got her medicine that she needs at the same time everyday. I really appreciated that.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - The Woodlands
Jeannie was absolutely incredible! She took such great care of our sweet Creasy and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She had great communication, was attentive & caring, and kept us updated throughout our time away. We could tell Creasy was happy and well cared for when we got back. We’re so thankful we found Jeannie! We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter!
I highly recommend Shelby, our dog was very happy in her care! She took care of Togo while we were traveling, and after every visit she gave us a detailed update and photos of our sweet boy. She gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. Thanks for everything Shelby!
Claudia was very responsive and communicated well before and during the period we were out of town. She was dependable and did each requesed visit around the times we had agreed upon. Our pups were well cared for and were very happy to see her. We will use Claudia again.
5 stars are not enough to rate Alexis. We have hired her several times to care for our dear bassett and she always goes above and beyond - she is knowledgeable, trustworthy and most importantly, she connects deeply with dogs. We come home to a happy dog, a vacuumed home, notes and even thoughtful touches. Goose loves her like family, and so do we.
Samaneh Is absolutely amazing, she is punctual and always on time, she always goes above and beyond! I knew my pup absolutely enjoyed his time with her and will greatly miss her! We will now be looking for excuses to higher her just so he gets to see her they have become buds! Thank you for everything I highly recommend your services for everyone and anyone!

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 The Woodlands 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.
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 The Woodlands 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 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in The Woodlands with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in The Woodlands. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
