“Barbara always takes such good care of our dogs! She stayed at our house this time and did a wonderful job. We love receiving the regular updates she sends. We know Dixie and Cupid are in great hands with Barbara!”

“Sybil is hands down the most fantastic sitter we’ve ever used. The expectations for my little fur baby are high and she far exceeded them on every level. I felt completely at ease while I was away knowing my pup was in solid hands. Her communication and professionalism was top notch…and she has a killer sense of humor to boot! I cannot recommend her highly enough.”

“Kendra did a great job, even though there was a winter storm she still went thru all the trouble to make sure my dogs were taken care of, she’s very attentive, kind to our dogs and great communication with us, throughout the stay.”

“Jessica was AMAZING. Always communicated promptly, sent photos of my pup at each visit, and asked really good questions when setting up her appointment. So grateful for a positive experience. Will definitely use Jessica again.”

“Christy is a phenomenal sitter. She gave excellent details about what was going on and sent many pictures, which we were very grateful for! I would 100% recommend Christy to anyone needing a sitter, she’s the best!”

“Morgan was fantastic with my girl Jovi over the holidays! She was very accommodating about a few unexpected requests I had to make last minute, sent pics throughout her stay that showed Jovi was super comfortable & content with her, and left my place exactly as she found it. Will definitely rebook!”

“We decided to use Rover for our little one 'baby" because we were heading out on a 7 day cruise and needed a sitter for 9 days. We found Britney on Rover and she absolutely over exceeded our expectations! From the first day we did the meet and greet, she was so caring, loving, respectful and professional! As we flew to and from Orlando and cruised for 7 days, Britney never missed a beat. Britney actually drove all the way from work in Downtown Dallas to give our "baby" her 1pm snack! She kept everything clean, followed all the rules and even worked from home some days to just keep "baby" company. She sent us pics and reports daily. We felt super comfortable leaving Britney in our home the entire time. We truly found a God sent dog sitter and also just a really warm and wonderful person. We will be using her services again!”

“Nashi was phenomenal! One of our pups wasn’t feeling well right before we left, and it’s always difficult to leave when something like that is going on. Nashi stepped right in and took excellent care, provided updates, and calmed my worried mind. We absolutely recommend Nashi and will be requesting her care again in the future for our pups, too.”

“Amanda quickly accepted a last minute request after a different sitter cancelled on me. Luna was well cared for the entire week! I received several updates throughout the week and found the home just like we left it. I’m looking forward to booking Amanda again next time we travel. Luna, Aaron and I appreciate you!”

“We had such a great experience with Alyssa this weekend! She took wonderful care of Hank and Hugo, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. The boys were happy, well cared for, and even did better than usual with someone new. We’ll definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”


About: I've always been the go-to pet sitter for my friends and family. I don't have a dog of my own but I love that I can have them for short time. I always enjoy the companionship of any pet that comes my way! Note: Recently had family move in with their cats. The cats have no issues with other animals in the house. They pay no mind to dogs coming in. My weekend is Sundays and Mondays. I do work a regular 9 but can come home during my lunch break and have family members that work from home that can help out with potty breaks. I do live with my boyfriend that is able to help me out on weekends a bit since those are his days off also. I live in house with a spacious backyard so potty breaks are easy but I do enjoy going to dog parks or going on walking trails so the both of us can enjoy the outside and get our exercise in!

About: Hi I’m Jackie ✨ I love being active and hanging out with my friends! I've provided dog sitting and drop-in care 10-25+ times for friends and family, caring for both medium and small breeds. I previously owned a larger dog (Korean jindo) named Flash, which gave me hands on experience with high energy dogs! Providing daily walks, feeding schedules, and overall care. I've also cared for smaller breeds, including a schnauzer, so I'm comfortable adapting to different personalities, activity levels, and routines. As a former puppy to dog owner, I understand how important consistency, safety, and communication are. I treat every dog with patience, attentiveness, respect and genuine care. Use my link for $20 off your first Rover booking! https://www.rover.com/sit/jackiu18636 Pet care fits naturally into my flexible hybrid schedule. I’m available afternoon after 3:30pm and enjoy staying active with consistent walks and visits I prioritize safety and consistency, follow your pet’s routine carefully, provide structure walks, refresh water, and send photo updates for peace of mind. My goal is to increase safety and trust overtime
“Shawndreal was absolutely amazing!! I had a good feeling about her just from her profile. But once we met, I knew I had the perfect person for my dog. She kept up with sending lots of pictures of Riley and let me know when she gave him meds and was fed his meals. I knew from the pictures and text that Riley really enjoyed her also. We came home to a tidy house and a very happy dog. We are already planning our next trip and will for sure be calling Shawndreal ♥️”

“Emely watched my four dogs while me and my family traveled to Hawaii for ten days. I have never been able to leave my dogs or felt comfortable doing it til Emely came along. She’s a God send. She was patient with coming over to get to know them before the trip. My dogs had five star care and I will be a repeat customer. She followed my instructions and even asked me questions if I left something out. She sent plenty of pictures and videos for updates. It was a pleasure and my dogs love you so much and you are now family. Great Job we appreciate you !”

“Hailey was so good with both of our fur babies. She sent daily picture updates as well as any other updates that were needed. I know both our girls were happy to spend the weekend with her! She's great with both cats and dogs, and takes great care of the house. Even offered to stay longer when we thought we were going to have major flight delays.”

Dylia is our go-to dog/house sitter. She takes AMAZING care of our pets when we’re away. This time around we were out of the country for 10 days, she stayed with our pups day/night and made sure they didn’t feel lonely without our presence. Dylia has great communication and gave us daily updates and photos. She also goes above and beyond and leaves our home clean, just like she found it. 100/10 recommend. 🙂

Emily was a complete godsend to my pugs and me! I needed care at the last minute, and she was able to meet for a quick rundown of what would be needed while I was out of town and, of course, meet my precious pugs before I left. Not only was she able to make that last-minute meeting possible, but she knew exactly what questions to ask to be fully prepared to provide the best care possible! Her communication and updates were beyond top-notch, and she really went over and beyond for us the entire weekend! (She even went to the lengths of picking up the yard!) My pugs do not feel at ease with many people, which results in them not eating and even drinking while I’m away, but from the moment we met Emily, her energy was exactly what they needed! They felt comfortable eating both days I was away! I am so grateful for her, and she will definitely be the first call I make when planning my next trip!

Mady was amazing and took such amazing care of our old man. We were out of town during the freeze, and were so worried about getting home. She was so communicative and supportive throughout, she definitely made a bad situation feel more manageable. She dripped our faucets and turned on the pool as needed, and helped make sure our old guy was safe and comfortable on the ice. Our home was in amazing condition after she left, and we received updates and pictures while gone as well. Will definitely be using again :)

Kylee took care of our house and menagerie of pets for 10 days while we were traveling. We came home to a house in great shape, plants that are thriving, and pets who were happy to see us but didn't seem like they missed us at all. She communicated well and asked good questions about anything that came up. If we need help in the future, we won't hesitate to hire Kylee again.
