“Kimberly is wonderful!! She was patient and so sweet with my shy cats. She also sent me detailed notes with lots of pictures, so I was comfortable knowing they were well taken care of!”
“Lauren is so wonderful! She was very accommodating and made my 2 cats feel very loved while I was away. She was easily able to follow my very detailed care instructions for my older cat, and was very patient with my aloof yet feisty newer cat. I would highly recommend her to care of your pets.”
“We recently moved to Texas and finding a good pet sitter was one of my biggest worries. I have 2 cats, one of which needs daily medication. We had our first out of town trip this weekend and Bethany was able to ensure that Mia got her medicine and sent some lovely pictures / updates. Would highly recommend!”
“Loki looked super at ease with Katie from the pictures I received. Loved the updates from her and very much appreciated that she took the time to let him explore outside a bit on the porch. :)”
“Devorah is great! She stepped in at the last minute to cover a schedule change and was able to quickly pick up on our cat's needs. Toby seemed to really like her.”
“Mikinze was amazing! She kept me updated the whole time, and gave me piece of mind when leaving my kitty home! I would definitely work with her again 🫶🏻”
“It was a last minute booking and Carrin responded and confirmed immediately, which I am super grateful for! She went above and beyond and gave me updates during the drop-in visit. I will definitely have her care for my dogs again!”
“Claudia was incredible! She jumped in and saved the day after my original Rover didn’t show up. She was timely and sent tons of photos and videos to give me peace of mind during my travel. I would hire her again in a heart beat.”
“Jerri was amazing! We will be using her moving forward for sure. She is very good with dogs and Ollie loved her. Also she has a great attention to details in the instructions we gave her. 10/10 recommend using her to take care of your fur babies, especially if yours is particular.”
“Amazing sitter! Responsive, communicative, caring, and she can somehow get my cat (who is normally terrified of anyone I bring home) to come out and explore.”
“Eileen was amazing! Very communicative and sent pictures from every drop in visit. Gave me peace of mind on my trip! Will be a return customer for sure.”

“Emma is so incredibly sweet with my senior dog, she did an amazing job handling his medications and schedule- even on short notice! We appreciate the time she took to get to know our little guy, definitely recommend booking Emma for your furry friends needs.”
“Kyle was amazing! He was extra attentive to Kenzie while I was away and had no problem doing all the extra steps for her senior care. He takes amazing pictures too! He even programmed my TV to help her have some background noise. I know she enjoyed his visits. He also has fantastic communication and is a very honest human! I will definitely use him again!”
“Kalyn was so communicative and patient with my shy cat. As the parent to a cat that is usually terrified to meet new people, it was such a relief to see him warm up to her and to see pictures of him on her lap and playing. I HIGHLY recommend Kalyn’s services to anyone seeking at home care for their pet!!”
About: I understand how important it is to have someone dependable you can trust to keep your pets happy, safe, and cared for—while sticking to the routine they know and love. I currently have one playful and sweet kitty, and I grew up caring for three golden Labradors and two guinea pigs, so animals have always been a big part of my life. Over the years, I’ve also regularly looked after pets for friends and family, whether they’re traveling or just need a little extra help with day-to-day care. I have a flexible schedule and am available for drop-in visits during mornings, lunch hours, and evenings, with occasional weekend availability as well. Whether your pet needs feeding, enrichment, a walk, or just some extra love and attention, I’m here to help. I'm experienced with many types of pets, but I especially enjoy caring for cats. From quick check-ins to longer hangouts or walks around the block, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for. You can also expect lots of photo updates to help you feel connected and reassured while you're away. I’m happy to meet ahead of time to get to know you and your pet, answer any questions, and make sure everything feels right before a scheduled visit. Looking forward to meeting your furry family members soon!
“Madi and Abby were amazing! Our two young cats were so comfortable around Abby and that shows how great she was with them! She followed all instructions, sent tons of pictures that made us so happy while away, and even was extremely patient and communicative during a situation where our electric front door locked wouldn’t open! Would absolutely recommend and book again! So happy we found them!”
“Emma is fantastic!! She was great with my two cats and I felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. Extremely communicative, kind, and very easy to work with. I would definitely book with her again!!”
About: Hi!! I have a Aussie doodle and he’s the cutest thing!! I just move to Dallas in January without him though so I miss walking fur babies! Message me!! I currently work every day until 4 but am available to let doggies out on lunch or even walk them after I get off! I also can do over night! I live right next to highland park and when my family comes to visit we take my doodle to Williams park to walk and play!
“Today was our first meet & greet with Storm, and I’m so glad we connected! He was kind, calm, and very professional. I immediately felt comfortable talking to him, and he really took the time to get to know my dog, Coco. It was great to see how quickly Coco connected with him and also with his sweet dog, Harley! They got along right away, which made me feel even more confident. I’ll definitely be continuing with Storm for walks and care, and I absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a caring, responsible dog walker.”

University Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sasha took care of our girls while we were away for two weeks, part of which we didn’t have access to the Internet but still kept us updated with Rover cards, sending us videos and pictures that put our mind at ease that they were well taken of.
Olivia is awesome - I cannot even count anymore how many times Olivia cared wonderfully for Lola & Lou! Fantastic!
Kelly was very patient with my dog who does not like strangers! She came for a pre-visit and took so much time to let willow warm up to her and went above and beyond. Thanks again kelly!
Katie did an amazing job! She gave great updates every day and took really good care of my cat Luke.
Mikinze is a great petsitter! She is personable, communicative, reliable and punctual. I’m so glad she was able to drop in on my cats while I was out of town and give them lots of love and cuddles. I felt they were in great care with her watching them, which makes traveling a lot less stressful. Thank you, Mikinze!
Eileen was amazing! Very communicative and sent pictures from every drop in visit. Gave me peace of mind on my trip! Will be a return customer for sure.
Savannah was AMAZING!! She’s incredibly sweet, was always prompt, sent lots of photos and videos, and even asked if she could take our dog to a pool party (which he loved and I was so happy to know he was getting out of the house). She also made sure to give our cat lots of love. Highly highly recommend and will be (hopefully) using her the next time we’re out of town!
Joseph was outstanding with my 2 year old ball of energy black lab. 10/10. No notes. Lots of photos of my widdle man given every visit! I could tell my boy had a great time with Joseph. He swooped in and booked at the last minute without any conflicts or confusion. Arrived on time for each drop in session and walk. He went the extra mile and really made coming home from a sudden trip out of town enjoyable. He found my robot vacuum when it got tangled up in charging cords, ran and emptied my dishwasher, and even took out the trash…100% will book with him again every chance I can.
Carol is awesome!! Very responsive and gives great updates during and after visits! Goose warmed up to her right away, such peace of mind knowing he is in good hands while we are at work! Book with her!!
James is wonderful! He took such great care of my three cats and sent pics every day. Thank you, James!
We adore Holly and continue coming back to her anytime we’re out of town! She always sends lots of pictures and spends extra quality time with our kitty!
Nova was exceptional in how she cared for my 2 dogs and in her communication with me when I was out of state for 3 days! She went over and above. She has pets herself and understands what pets need. I highly recommend her!
