House Sitting Tiki Island

“This is our second time having Santana come house sit. The dogs absolutely love her and she takes great care of them. We’ll definitely keep booking with her!”

Karen L.

“Taylor is incredible. We had HVAC issues while she was house sitting, and she was SO gracious and communicative. She even made sure to rearrange her plans to make sure our HVAC repair tech could check on things. Also, we get so many updates and pictures. As someone who is also a pet sitter and has been on Rover as both a sitter and pet parent since 2016, I can confidently say that Taylor is among the best.”

About: I've taken care of a few of my friend's and family's dogs over the past few years. I have only had cats growing up, but I love dogs and would love to spend more time with them! I'm currently a student, so I have plenty of time in the evenings and weekends to care for pets. I would spend ample time with them, as I am missing my animals from home immensely. I cannot board currently due to my housing restrictions, but I will take care of your pets with the attention I would give to my own.

About: I know how stressful it can feel to leave your pet with someone new. My goal is to give you peace of mind by treating your pet like they're part of my own family. I am a certified Vet Asst with a lifetime of pet experience. After years of caring for pets, I've learned that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make sure each pet feels understood. I currently have 3 dogs and 8 cats, including a few fosters. Pet care is my full-time job, so I am available throughout the day. During each visit, your pet will get more than just the basics. They'll get attention, playtime, enrichment, and the care they're used to receiving at home. You can expect clear communication, timely updates, and plenty of photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing while you're away. I don't just see pets as another booking on my calendar. I see them as family members who deserve patience, attention, and care.

About: I am new to Rover, but have taken care of animals, big and small, all my life, and hope to grow my Rover profile at the same time I build my career as a recently-graduated archaeology Ph.D. student. I fully believe that our pets are parts of our family, and they deserve to be cared for that way. Our pets are just one part of our lives, but we are their whole lives, and I believe that is a gift, and means that taking care of pets is an honor. I grew up with dogs, cats, and even the occasional snake or two, and am familiar with animals at every stage of life. I am also used to a wide variety of energy levels and sizes, and have cared for small dogs, big dogs, house hippos, and tiny tornadoes (I also recognize that sometimes tiny tornadoes come in cat-form). I am very comfortable walking and playing with large, energetic dogs, and can provide them all the stimulation and engagement that they need. I am also familiar with the unique needs of cats, and have never had a period in my life when I did not have at least one cat as a pet. I am completely at ease with litter box care, playtime, and snuggle time. I am also very comfortable caring for geriatric animals, and animals that require medication. Throughout my life, I have cared for many pets, both cats and dogs, at the end of their lives, and even currently have a 20+ year old cat that requires some extra attention. I understand that older animals are special cases, and they deserve all the attention and care we can give them in their twilight years. I will care for your animals like my own, and will love the opportunity to make a new furry friend! I am currently an adjunct professor, and I have my own archaeological nonprofit, but this means my schedule is mostly up to me. This gives me ample time to spend with your pets, as well as flexibility to fit into your schedule. I will care for your animals in your home according to their routine and your expectations. I understand how important routine is, and how important environment is for pets to feel safe and secure.

About: I’ve been the primary caregiver for my own dog for 11 years, handling daily walks, feeding, grooming, medications, and vet visits. I’ve also cared for family members’ and friends dogs with a variety of needs, ages, and personalities. In addition, I’m an active member of Texas A&M LEIAS, a women’s organization founded on leadership, academics, and service with a strong focus on animal rescue. This involvement has strengthened my sense of responsibility, patience, and commitment to providing attentive, compassionate pet care. As a college student, I’m very organized with my time, and pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around classes to ensure pets receive consistent walks, feedings, playtime, and attention. I’m committed to maintaining each pet’s normal routine and can be flexible to accommodate specific needs, whether that’s daily check-ins, extended care, or overnight stays. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I carefully follow all owner instructions, keep pets secure, and monitor behavior and health closely. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I strive to create a calm, structured, and loving environment. My involvement in LEIAS and animal rescue–focused service has reinforced the importance of accountability, compassion, and treating every pet with the same care I’d want for my own.

About: I have had lots of pets. From newborns to Seniors. Pets are amazing. Take your dog for walks or just sit with your pet in the sunlight for company I’m retired so I can walk your dog anytime. I can come over when you need me to. I’m flexible when it comes to scheduling Right now, I don’t have any pets. I get my dog and cat fix by visiting friends that have pets. Your pet will be treated like he/she is my pet.

About: I’ve been caring for and raising dogs for over 10 years, and I currently have a rescue poodle named Zeke who I’ve had for 3 years. He’s spoiled with homemade meals, gets two walks a day, and plenty of playtime chasing balls. I treat every dog I care for like family—because that’s what they are. My goal isn’t just to walk your dog, but to make sure they have fun, feel safe, and enjoy their time out. I’m attentive, experienced, and genuinely passionate about dogs. Whether your pup is high-energy or needs gentle care, I’ll tailor the experience to what they need most. Currently, I’m in between jobs, which means I have a very open and flexible schedule to care for your pup throughout the week. I’m available most days, mornings or evenings—just not Sundays, as I observe the day for church and rest. Your dog will always get my full attention when they’re with me! When I walk your dog, their safety and happiness are my top priorities. I use secure leashes and harnesses, avoid high-traffic areas, and pay close attention to each dog’s pace, energy level, and comfort. Whether it’s a slow sniff-around-the-block or a playful, active walk, I tailor the experience to your pup’s needs and treat them like family every step of the way.

“We had a great experience with Shiloh! Our dog is very anxious, especially when we’re leaving, but he seemed surprisingly at ease and comfortable with her, which gave us so much peace of mind for our evening out. Shiloh kept us updated and sent pictures while we were gone, which we really appreciated. It was so nice being able to relax and enjoy our evening knowing he was in good hands. We would absolutely recommend Shiloh and will definitely book with her again!”

About: I have my dog since he was a puppy, he is 9 years old now. As a dog owner and cats, I don’t mind to babysit the other owner pets when they are busy. I currently work from home allowing to have time to spend caring for your pet. I am excited to spend time with your pets. We will go on daily walks and I will work to maintain their routines from home while you are away from your furry friend. I have a spacious fenced in yard where I can take your pets to safely play. My home has an extra pet room that they can have for themselves during their stay.

“Eva was really great with my sweet piranha. she id a little reactive and nervous with new people, but she immediately took to Eva. We had some communication issues in the beginning, but after some chatting, we were able to resolve everything and she was even able to extend her time with piranha at the end of the booking when my flight was canceled so her flexibility is unmatched. I will 100% book with her again!”

“Becky and Joel took such great care of my baby! Having a disabled dog, I get so nervous leaving him. When I met Becky and Joel, I knew they would treat him with all of the care and kindness possible. And they did just that! I am so grateful to have someone I feel confident will love my baby just like I do. I will most definitely be utilizing their services again in the near future!”

About: I’ve taken care of many types of dogs, from small to very large. I have experience with senior dogs and raised my own dog as a puppy. I can give medications as needed and live an active lifestyle so walks are a breeze! I’d love to help with your fur babies (also have cat, guinea pig, and chicken experience). I am a grad student so my schedule is quite flexible with breaks in between for potty breaks or walks. I can also do in home stays as needed. For in home service I follow the instructions of the owner to a T. I make sure to try and maintain the pets routines as best as I can. I treat your homes how I’d want mine treated!

“Polite, responsive and attentive. Pups and house were in great shape when I returned. Would book again.”

About: I am a well experienced vet nurse now in undergrad with high hopes for med school! I've been a dog trainer all the way up to ICU nurse. I can handle most any situation so you can leave your home and your babies comfortably with me! I'm going to school online on a self paced basis so pet care is a perfect fit for me and my schedule. My 86 year old neighbor loves my 1 year old miniature poodle Boseman and loves her little farm so long stays away are okay with the both of us. My poodle Boseman has free range of my place but is also fully kennel trained if need be (used when I worked long hospital hours). He gets walks around our pond or goes next door with my neighbor's 50+ chickens, 2 cats, and 3 dogs. He gets fed twice a day and plenty of treats (super high metabolism lol).

About: I’ve been around dogs and other pets throughout my life and understand how important it is to have someone you can trust caring for them. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable working with pets with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I take the time to learn each pet’s individual needs, whether that means walks and playtime for an energetic dog, sticking closely to feeding and potty schedules, or simply providing plenty of attention and companionship. I’m also comfortable with pets who may be nervous, stubborn, or need a little extra patience. I’ll treat your pet and your home with respect, follow your instructions carefully, and keep you updated so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. My schedule is currently very flexible, which gives me plenty of availability for pet care throughout the week. I’m available for daytime and evening visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I can also work with your pet’s established routine and schedule whenever possible, rather than expecting them to adjust to mine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priorities. I carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, boundaries, and anything else your pet needs. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the pet and the property and make sure doors, gates, leashes, and other potential escape points are secure. I also understand that every animal is different. I give pets time to become comfortable with me, pay attention to their behavior and body language, and never force interaction with a nervous or hesitant pet. I’ll also keep you updated so you know how your pet is doing while they’re in my care.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life! I’ve had a dog for 7 years and I watch other peoples dogs for them all the time! 25+ different dogs on Rover as well!

I take care of my dog Riley by going outside and throwing his toys in the backyard and daily walks! I will take care of your dog how you want!
