About: I have cared for many dogs in my life. I have cared for friends' and family's dogs, as well as my own, ranging from chihuahuas to great danes. I have yet to meet a pooch who doesn't like me. I will provide individual quality care to each pup and will willingly help with any extra pup related requests (Baths, brushing, and medications). I am also always available by phone if you would like to ask any questions about me or how I will help take care of your precious pup. I know that each pup is an important member of the family, and assure that I will take the best of care of the pup or pups. I'm Alexis and I will be your pup's best friend! I'm a college student so my schedule is pretty open and flexible. Perfect for all your dog's needs! I always open and honest about my schedule and will never cancel last minute. My goal is to keep your pet happy and maintain their routine. I'll always have my eyes on your dog whether it's at home, on a walk, or at a dog park. I also strive to keep your home how you left it though if you need a few chores done I don't mind helping out.
About: I focus on making dogs feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while their owners are away. Whether I’m providing drop-in visits, walks, or house sitting, I stick closely to each dog’s normal routine. This can include walks, playtime, feeding schedules, potty breaks, cuddle time, and simply keeping them company so they feel relaxed and secure in their own environment. I’m dependable, attentive, and provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. As a proud dog mom to a husky, caring for dogs is already a big part of my daily life. Beyond caring for my own dog, I’ve helped family and friends by looking after their pets while they travel or have busy schedules. These experiences have taught me how important consistency, patience, and trust are when caring for someone else’s furry family member. I work full-time as a manager, but pet care fits naturally into my routine. I carefully manage my schedule to ensure pets receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need during my visits. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care and give pet parents peace of mind while they’re away. Because I have a dog at home, I do not offer boarding services. While my husky is friendly, I believe being realistic about the services I can provide helps ensure the best experience and safety for every pet in my care. Dog mom to a husky, caring for dogs is already part of my routine — through walks, care, and helping my family pets feel loved Because of the dog I have at home, I do not offer the boarding service. Although friendly, it just is not a realistic service for me.
About: We have had pets for as long as I can remember. Caring for animals brings me so much peace and joy, I am definitely the type of girl to pick up any dog or cat from the side of the road and take care of it!! I currently work part-time as a Licensed Esthetician. I just started in January, so my books aren’t quite as full as I need them to be, but I know that comes with time. I’m wanting to start dog/cat sitting to help me with my financial struggles and fill any extra time I have in my schedule! My dogs aren’t very sweet when it comes to meeting strangers pups, but when I’m watching puppers at clients houses I allow them to run their little tails off for a good amount of time outside (if there is a fenced in yard of course). I am definitely an outside girl so I love to just grab a book and sit outside with them, no matter the weather. If walks are needed, all I need is my Crime Junkie podcast and I’m good to go!
About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. As a registered nurse, I’m highly attentive, dependable, and comfortable monitoring for changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, or overall well-being. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, senior pets, and animals that need extra patience and attention. Whether it’s walks, playtime, medication administration, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. I know how important peace of mind is when you’re away, so I provide regular updates, photos, and plenty of love and attention. My schedule is flexible and allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits depending on your needs. I understand the importance of consistency for pets and strive to maintain their normal routines while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a quick drop-in visit, extended care, or overnight attention, I’m committed to providing dependable and compassionate care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a registered nurse, I pay close attention to details and am experienced in recognizing changes in health or behavior. I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and household routines. I believe in building trust with both pets and owners through clear communication, reliability, and respect for your home. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs every chance I’ve gotten. At my church every knows I’m up for a dog watching gig at their house or my own at any time. I really love animals :) I’m a student and tennis player at Howard Payne university home for the summer and would love the opportunity to get to know you and your dogs and have a little buddy to hang out with! My goal isn’t just to take great care of your dogs, but to give them the time of their life! Lots of cuddles, walks, and attention! I’ll feed them, play with them, take them on walks, and out to use the bathroom whenever needed of course.
About: Hey everyone! I'm back after taking some time off and super excited to meet all of you! Sense I am unable to foster or adopt another dog, seeing as I have 1 already, I thought this was the next best thing. I've had pets since I was in the womb and they are my life. I work from home, so I can spend plenty of time loving on your babies! I have grown up with big and little dogs, so I have no preference. I can't wait to meet you all! I work from home so I'm just looking to add some more activities to get out and smell the fresh air and meet some new fur babies!! My work is flexible, so I'm available mostly according to your schedule! A typical visit with me includes meeting before the initial start of the job so we can get acquaintanted, and you can introduce your babies and give me a run down on how you like things done! Typically, I feed them and give them fresh water, then take them for a good walk and when we come back I like to get a little play time in. If feeding isn't involved, we just go out and play for a bit!
About: I have been around animals all my life! I currently have 5 babies! My little boy, 2 dogs (a lab mix & a chi-weenie) and 2 cats (a tortie queen & a maine-coon mix). From the time I was a young girl through my college years I helped my grandparents take care of cows and chickens. I currently work part time and I'm a delivery driver as well so it fits perfectly into my schedule! Currently I am able to look after pets on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, but I'm hoping to expand into the work week soon. I'll look after your babies as if they were my own! I have a fenced in inner back yard as well as a fenced in outer yard. Inside I have two litter boxes for the kitties.
About: I’ve owned my own dog since I was 8 years old and I have worked at 2 boarding facilities as a caregiver. I’m currently in college to become a veterinarian technician. I am available all days during the week and my classes that I take are online so your pet would be well taken care of. I have an 4 acre fenced in yard and a friendly dog to keep your pet company while they stay. They will have plenty of room to run and play.
About: Great with puppy training, walking, and playing! I Own 3 dogs and love all the different personalities and fun dogs bring! I’m patient and willing to work with anything from potty training to tricks. Will walk, care for, and cuddle your fluffs! My availability is pretty open for the summer (I’m a teacher). Starting in August, I will be limited to evenings and weekends. We can work together to find a time that works, or even a weekly occurrence for care or walks! I am more than willing to follow instructions for care in your home. I’m very familiar with being cautious with letting pets out, feeding, etc and will pay close attention to your pet and our surroundings at all times.
“Kayla has watched our two dogs while we were out of town for the last year. Our dogs love her and we loved that she was always super communicative with us. One of our dogs is a senior on a lot of medication and Kayla always followed our instructions which was super important for our dog’s health. We definitely recommend Kayla to anyone looking for dog care.”
“Only did a couple drop in visits but was very very quick to all of my messages! Especially since I was a little worried about them being left alone for the first time! My pups also seemed very happy and calm in the photos I received!”
About: I have been so fortunate to care for and love on many dogs from puppy age to senior, both big and small! My soul dog of 16 years dealt with heart issues the last few years of his life which gave me the skills to track, administer, and monitor his schedule as needed. I have also had pups who've dealt with stomach and skin issues, so i am experienced in that aspect as well. I have a very flexible daily schedule as I work from home and spend the day taking care of furry friends. This gives me ample opportunity to give your pets all of the love and care that they need while you are away! When caring for pets in your home, I always ensure that they stick as close to their normal routine as possible to ease their stress. It is important to create a stress-free environment and a calm relationship between myself and your furry fam!
“Relocating from Los Angeles to Tyler for my residency at UT Tyler was stressful, and I was especially worried about leaving my fur babies, Luna P and Washington, with a sitter during the holidays for a whole week. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found Raul. He kept me updated throughout the week with pictures and thoughtful texts, even asking for specific details to ensure he was meeting my pets' needs. Raul was on top of everything, and it was clear he truly cared about my bbs. Washington, who is very shy and nervous around strangers, warmed up to Raul by day three and was even playing with him! Knowing my pets were in such good hands allowed me to fully enjoy my time with family, without any worries. I highly recommend Raul. He is trustworthy, responsible, and reliable—qualities I truly appreciated during such a busy and stressful time.”
“Aleisa is such a pleasure to work with. Friendly and engaging. Puts Wendy’s timid personality first when interacting. Definitely makes time to make us feel comfortable with leaving and Wendy feel safe when we are gone. So grateful to have found her.”
About: I’ve been an animal lover since birth! I was always surrounded by at least two, and couldn’t wait to have my own. I was obsessed with “The Dog Whisperer” at an early age and fully planned to become a dog trainer at 18 (seriously!). In HS, I acquired over 500+ hours at my local animal shelter. I’ve owned and trained 4 dogs in the last 10 years! I have the most experience with herding breeds (shelties, border collies, aussies, etc), but I have been around all kinds of dogs, big or small. I also have a VERY high energy BC myself, so I understand the kind of work it takes to make sure they’ve worked off their excess energy. I bike with my pup and have a lot of experience biking with two at the same time, so rest assured your dog will be good and tired staying with me ☺️ I’d love the opportunity to take care of your pets when you need an extra hand! If you’re in the area and think we’d be a good fit, let me know! I recently moved to the Tyler area to do my master's online! I’m a serious homebody and have a flexible schedule. Mondays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays are typically pretty open! I have a fenced yard and a doggie door for total access! My pup can teach them how to use it if they’re unfamiliar. The backyard is very safe and clean.
“Kimberly was punctual. She sent pics of our fur babies smiling and playing! And she even checked for a package delivery we were expecting! We’ve already booked her for another drop in visit!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 255 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Troup. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Troup 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Troup. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
