“Ashley is the best sitter you guys. My Cali is such a baby and to make me feel better she sent countless pictures and videos showing me her progress as in getting settled amd even when she begun to play..she also changed her diapers for me since Inhaven’t potty trained my 5 month Cali yet. I really want to send gratitude galore”
“Hannah was amazing with my little Taz. She heard every request I had about protecting her with her arthritis so I was very appreciative of that! Dolly is also so sweet! Will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Cassandra was wonderful with both me and my dog. She was very responsive and did a great job keeping me updated each day with photos. I would definitely book with her again!”
“I can’t thank Jamie enough for taking care of my dogs, Duke and Dave, while I was out of town for Thanksgiving! From start to finish, she was fantastic. Communication was a breeze—she responded quickly and helped arrange convenient drop-off and pick-up times. While I was away, Jamie sent me plenty of photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pups were happy and well cared for. To top it off, my flight was delayed until the next day, and Jamie was incredibly kind and flexible in keeping Duke and Dave longer than planned. I truly appreciate her patience and understanding. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I’ll definitely reach out to Jamie again the next time I need a sitter! Highly recommend!”
“Diana was great watching Chewie. I received videos and pictures of him so I knew he was doing well away from home. He came back happy, and was even well settled on her couch when I came to pick him up! Her communication was clear and I would happily use Diana again.”
“Laurie did a wonderful job taking care of my dog for two weeks. We had used the same dog sitter for 10 years and she had recently moved. I was nervous to find someone new as my dog is 13 and also very anxious. We met Laurie and I knew she would be perfect. She kept us updated and sent pics, so I never had to worry. I am so thankful we found her.”
About: I grew up with cats and dogs in the family. I have experience with senior dog care and administering medications. I also have some experience with younger dogs and potty training. I'm currently in graduate school earning my master's degree in speech language pathology. I go to school online so I have lots of flexibility in my routine to make room for your pets. I live in an apartment so I am unable to board pets at my residence. I am able to stay in the pet's home if needed.
“On meeting Gabi, I was immediately comfortable leaving my pup with her for a couple of nights. She took great care of him and sent regular updates through text. Highly recommended.”
About: I’ve always had a huge love for dogs and truly believe they deserve all the love, attention, and affection in the world! I had a dog of my own who passed away a couple of years ago, and I still miss having that special companionship in my life. I’m ready to share that love with another pup and treat yours like my own! Whether it’s going on walks, playing, cuddling on the couch, or simply keeping your dog company, I want to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and so loved while you’re away. I know how much our pets mean to us, and I would treat your fur baby with the same care and affection I would want someone to give my own. I can’t wait to meet your pup and give them lots of love! 🐾❤️ I work from home, which gives me some flexibility throughout the day to give your pup extra love and attention! I have a lunch break when I can take dogs out for a walk or potty break, and I’m off work at 5 p.m., so I can head straight out for an evening walk or spend time with your dog at home. I love being active and getting outside, so having a furry friend to join me would make my day even better! My goal is to make sure your pup feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. I have a fenced-in backyard where your pup can safely play, explore, and get some fresh air! I also live in a safe, dog-friendly neighborhood with great walking areas, perfect for getting outside and enjoying some exercise. Whether your dog loves running around in the backyard, going on walks, or relaxing at home, I want to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved during their stay!
About: I have been around dogs of all sizes and ages since I was 9 years old. I am comfortable with all animals and love to run around and play with them, as much as cuddling with them. No matter how young or old, or energetic or tame, I promise to care for your animal as if they were my own. I work full time remotely from home and am able to provide all the love, attention, walks, and potty breaks needed for your fur baby! I have a fenced patio for them to get some fresh air and watch all the squirrel, birds, and people through out the day as well! I let all the pets roam freely in the house when I am home and only have then kenneled when I am gone which is about 2 hours as most when I have practice I have to go coach! We have a fenced in balcony as well as a fenced in yard for animals to play in. There is also a great trail system for good walks.
“She was great, I received updates around 3 times a day and the pictures and videos made me confident my dog was comfortable and happy! Very communicative and friendly!!”
“We loved having Shannon watch our baby! She was so kind, sent regular updates, was super flexible when weather could have impacted our travel, and was just the best! We will absolutely use her again!”
“Stephanie was very attentive to our Prince, who acts like a prince! She took the time to understand his unique, quiet demeanor, and calm, snuggly needs. I have to admit, he typically comes home extremely tired and overwhelmed from other sitters, taking days to recoup from his adventure, but he actually was his normal silly, playful self when he returned home. Thanks Stephanie for taking care of our precious fur baby!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - University Park
We’re so grateful we found Jennifer and her wonderful family! ❤️ They treated Kai and Yuzu like their own. Even on their first stay, both pups felt so happy, relaxed, and right at home! 🥰 Jennifer was quick to respond, and communication was excellent. We couldn’t have asked for better care! We’ve already booked their next stay and highly recommend her family 🐾🧡 🐾
Amanda was absolutely wonderful with our sweet Belle! 🐾❤️ Attentive, loving, and incredibly responsible, she went above and beyond to ensure Belle felt comfortable and happy throughout her stay. We feel so fortunate to have found her! Amanda is the kind of sitter every pet parent hopes to find—and every fur baby deserves. Belle gives her four paws up, and we wholeheartedly recommend her! 🐶
Megan is a lifesaver! From the moment we met her, we knew she was hands down the best sitter we had found in Dallas (and believe me, we tried daycare with so many different people!). After dealing with inconsistent updates, missing pictures, and sitters who claimed to have walked Remy when they clearly hadn’t, finding someone we can truly trust has been such a relief. Megan is reliable, caring, and gives us the peace of mind we were looking for. We’re so grateful to have found her and hope she’ll be part of Remy’s life for a long time to come!
Tyler (and Jordan) were so lovely!!! Great communication, kind, and easy going. Mazie had a BLAST staying with them and was smiling in every single picture and video! I always feel better knowing im leaving her with true dog lovers, and it’s clear that’s what you’re getting with them. Mazie will absolutely be back 🤩🦴
Andrew did a wonderful job watching my baby Pepper!!!! He took her on multiple long walks every day, tired her out, and I can tell she was in great care which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. He was very responsive and provided photos and updates. Pepper can’t wait for her next stay!
Jirah was absolutely wonderful! She was super responsive and kept amazing communication the entire time, which made a huge difference with my chaotic schedule. Her dog Gilligan is an absolute gem and was the perfect companion for Paco. I felt so at ease knowing they were in such caring, reliable hands. Highly recommend—can’t wait to book with her again!
