“Jacinda was great with my 3 cats while I was away on vacation! She was very flexible and communicative and helped a ton when I had an emergency while I was away! I will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Always a pleasure to have Kyle house sit for us. He is punctual, attentive to our pups, and always leave the house in great shape. Definitely keeping him on speed dial!”

“I have used Lana a couple of times now to take care of my pups, and she always does such a phenomenal job. I don’t have enough positive things to say about her and the care she has for my pup when I’m away from home. She sends lots of photos, and communicates thoroughly, never leaving you to wonder how your fur babies are doing while you’re away. If you’re looking for a trustworthy sitter, you’ve found one in her!”
About: Hi there! **I’m happy to house sit in any city** I’m experienced in pet sitting and house sitting. I love animals and would delight in caring for your furry family and home. I have a worldpackers profile (work/lodge exchange app) with almost 15 5-star reviews as well as another pet/house sitters account with a current 5 star rating. I don't mind traveling further distances. Thank you for your consideration. :) I am a remote college student who enjoys spending most of my time in solitude and/or with furry companions. I also enjoy reading, writing, nature, music, and more! I am happy to do drop ins, walking services, in house sits and more. I currently am not able to host them in my home.
“Latisha was great! I can see that she genuinely loves animals and cares for them. She took care of my very senior dog and 2 cats while my family was gone for a trip for a few days. She was also very communicative and sent many pictures/videos!”
“Skylar is fantastic! She took such great care of my pups and my house. I know they felt loved while we were out of town. Skylar kept us updated and sent pictures. We will definitely use her again when we need a sitter!”
About: My journey with animals started when I was a kid; I remember my very first dog. He was a lab mix, and his name was Dopey. He was indeed dopey, and I loved him more for it. From the moment I met him, I knew I wanted to always be around animals. My professional career began in 2019 as a bather at a common Petstore. I worked there for a few months before deciding I wanted a more personal environment to care for the animals and get quality time with them, so I left corporate to work for mom and pop grooming salons, daycares and boarding facilities. To gain more knowledge to help care for the animals, I attended Animal Behavior College in Vet Assistance and obtained my Animal CPR certification. With that in hand, I decided to work in a vet office to help further educatemyself for the animals. While working at a Vet Office, I became a Lead Bather and quickly gravitated toward special needs, aggressive and elderly pups. I currently work at a mom and pop grooming Salon in Allen, Tx. I'm working part-time at a grooming salon, so I have plenty of availability to work with. I have early morning availability for walks and home visits and availability after 3:30pm. I have 2 furniture kennels and a pop up kennel. I have multiple running water fountains through my home. I have two dogs of my own, who are walked 4 to 5 times a day. We tend to do short walks in grass during the heated afternoons.
“Marisol did a fantastic job taking care of my golden doodle, who can be a little particular when it comes to people. She was patient, kind, and made him feel comfortable right away. She sent daily updates with pictures. I came home to a happy pup and a tidy house — couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend her!”
“I was very nervous about leaving my pups for the first time but after meeting this sweet girl I was put more at easy. My dogs can be a lot and she seemed to take it all in stride. I appreciate the great care she took of them. I would definitely book her again.”
About: I’ve worked at Boarding and Daycare facilities for dogs so I know how to manage various sizes and age. Im not a certified Dog Trainer but I've trained a couple of dogs and have received glowing reviews.I’ve also owned a few dogs and 1 blind cat myself! I have a full time job that I work Monday-Thursday 7am-4:30pm. I do require at least 2 days notice for all services with the exception of dog walking. I may be available Thursday afternoons if asked ahead of time. I can’t have any animals where I currently live so, I will be based out of clients home. I follow all rules and boundaries you have regarding your home and personal spaces. I’m there for your dog and that’s it!
About: I've owned dogs all my life. A home is not a home if you don't have paw pals. If I care for your baby I will take care of him as if he were mine. They will go for walks everyday. We will play fetch. I also have a fenced yard so they will be safe and well taken care of. Your pet will not be bored. I have one dog myself and she is solid rotten. I do work but, I do 3 days on 4 days off. My son is home during the day, and he's off on weekends. He loves to play with the dogs, and he also helps walk the dogs when needed. 😍 Your baby will go for walks everyday. We will play fetch.

“Cristina did a great job watching my new dog Dolly when I went out of town for a week just two weeks after adopting my 7-month-old shelter dog. Dolly was still figuring out my house and yard and cat, Lulu. Christina helped with Dolly’s training and kept me updated with news and progress. I did not worry about my pets while I enjoyed visiting my new twin grand daughters. Thanks, Cristina!”
About: I love animals, especially dogs and cats! I’ve been obsessed with them since young. I’ve volunteered at shelters and worked at veterinary offices. I’ve raised energetic puppies and cared for a handful of elderly dogs. I am pet CPR and first aid trained. I would love to meet your fur baby and see if my pets and home are a good fit for their stay! This is a side business for me as I am a remote worker who just wants to add more income and joy to her life. I would follow the same schedule your pet receives at home (feeding time, sleep, potty breaks, etc). I have a 6 foot tall wooden fenced yard and a husky girl who has the energy to play all day but if your pet tells her they aren’t interested, she will understand (with a sad face of course). I like to think of pets as family so the couches and beds are not restricted to them. I use free and clear laundry detergent and natural home cleaners. I also do not feed table scraps unless it is okayed by the parent -even then it would be pet safe scraps. I know dog CPR and first aid. I am also aware of what foods to avoid and take allergies very seriously. My yard is regularly treated for any fleas or ticks.
About: With 10 years of experience as a veterinary technician, I bring a level of expertise to pet care that's hard to find. My entire life has been devoted to the well-being of animals—from dogs and cats to horses, goats, chickens, and reptiles. This isn't just a side gig for me; it's a continuation of my professional career. When it comes to dogs, I understand their unique needs, from energetic puppies to seniors who need gentle care. I can handle any personality with confidence, providing the right amount of physical and mental stimulation. For cats, my care is truly specialized. As a Cat Friendly Certified professional, I'm uniquely skilled in creating a stress-free environment for your feline companion, respecting their space and understanding their unique communication. My skills in administering medications, managing special diets, and recognizing potential health issues mean you can have total peace of mind. You're not just hiring a pet sitter; you're getting a dedicated professional who understands how to keep your beloved family member safe, happy, and healthy. I work as a vet tech on a set, three-day schedule. This predictability is a huge benefit, as it allows me to block out my other four days specifically for my pet-sitting clients. My routine is carefully planned around your pet's needs. I offer both in-home care and boarding to best fit your pet's needs. In Your Home: My goal is to maintain your pet's routine and comfort in their familiar environment. I work closely with you to understand your pet's specific needs, from feeding schedules to walk routes. I am highly vigilant about home security and your pet's safety, ensuring doors are locked and all protocols are followed precisely. In My Home: My home is a safe, clean, and welcoming space with a fully fenced yard. When pets stay with me, they become part of our family. I am dedicated to providing a secure and fun environment with plenty of supervised playtime and attention.
About: I have been in the veterinary field since 2021. You can say I’m very well trained! Haha. I actually train on the side with a pal of mine we worked for petco and he was the dog trainer and taught me everything I know! (Akc certified training) Do not be afraid to ask me questions! On my free time I love to walk pets including my own! Life can get very busy and I understand not everyone can have a spare moment to walk their fur babies for as long as they want. I am not offering at home services as I feel that your fur babies will do best in their own known environment, I will ensure they are as comfortable as can be starting with their surroundings! Big or small your babies will be in great hands.
“Lynnsee was great! She came for a meet and greet a few days before and hit it off right away with our three Great Danes. She was prompt, sent lots of adorable pics, followed our care/feeding/medicine requests and left the house spotless as a bonus! The pups had a great time and were in fantastic condition when we got home. We’ll definitely use Lynnsee again!”

“Ky took care of my dog Gracie, an 80 pound lab, and housesat for me over 10 days. He is a thoughtful and caring dog sitter. He asked all the right questions, such as how long it was okay to leave Gracie alone, and provided updates over text on a regular basis which I specified. When I got home, Gracie was happy and well taken care of. I would most definitely ask Ky to take care of her again.”

“I cannot speak highly enough of the care Dejana provides for dogs. From the moment I entrusted my dog to her, I felt a sense of comfort and confidence that is rare to find. Dejana has an incredible ability to connect with animals. She’s patient, loving, and deeply attentive to each dog’s individual needs. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, grooming, or simply spending time playing and bonding, Dejana treats every dog as if they were her own. She notices the little things like changes in behavior or appetite and takes proactive steps to ensure their well-being. My dog absolutely lights up when he sees her, which says more than any words can.”
Manolita H.
“Manolita would be a GREAT dog sitter. She has always been a lover of dogs. She loves and cares for them like each of them as family. If I didn't actually see her dogs I'd never know that she has pets because her house is always clean and I've never smelled a dog odor.”

Valerie H.
“Finding a pet sitter who is comfortable and experienced with administering insulin injections was a huge concern for us. Valerie put our minds at ease from the moment we met. She was calm, confident, and took the time to learn our cat Leo's specific routine and needs. The detailed updates we received, including times of his insulin shots and how he was doing, were so reassuring. We trusted Valerie completely with Leo's health and well-being, and they exceeded all of our expectations.”

Trails pet parents share their Rover experiences
Matt was an impeccable sitter staying in our home with our two Samoyeds. I have to say, my husband and I were floored when we got home and our dogs were watching dog TV with classic music playing in the background! It was like a spa. Matt gave wonderful updates over our trip. He is a PRO. I hope our schedules work out to have Matt over every time. Thank you, Matt!!!
This was our second year with Natalia, and she is without a doubt the best sitter we’ve ever worked with - even compared to family and friends. From the moment she arrived for a meet-and-greet, our dogs swarmed her and never left her side. She cared for them exactly as we would, keeping them happy, healthy, and comfortable. Professional and attentive, she anticipated our needs, sent daily photo updates, and even left the house spotless - doing dishes, laundry, and more. We had complete peace of mind while across the country, which is truly priceless. Highly recommended!
Marina took excellent care of my fur babies! She sent pictures a couple times a day and kept me updated on how they were doing and when she was leaving for a bit with anticipated return time. There was an issue with the first day and she was not able to be on time, but I don’t believe it was in her control. I plan on using her again the next time I go out of town and don’t bring my dogs. She’s very sweet and has a heart for animals!
Clint was the best. He kept us updated daily about our very neurotic and needy hound and from everything we can tell kept him happy and calm while we were away for two weeks! Clint was always very responsive and we were always comfortable that everything was handled well and with care. Thank you very much Clint!
