“Erica and Ronald were amazing with our dog chip. They took him in tons of walks, went to the park, and gave him lots of love. They treated him as if he were their own. He LOVED Their dog turbo! They got along wonderfully. They sent picture updates multiple times a day which made us feel so comforted. We HIGHLY recommend!”
“Erica was amazing with my pups! We received pics and updates throughout their stay. My pups were well taken care of and comfy with Erica and her family. Thank you for taking care of my dogs on short notice too ❤️❤️❤️”
“Alicia and family were absolutely wonderful to Lily. Alicia consistently provided me with updates and photos. She could not have been more caring to Lily. I will absolutely use her services again! Thank you to Alicia and her family, again. Lily loved them!!”
“Matt and Kathryn are absolutely wonderful with our dogs. Never, in all our years of being pet owners, have we taken a vacation without our animals. But we just got back from a week abroad without any concerns for our pups because we knew they were in the very best care. Our dogs miss Matt and Kathryn and their dogs when they go too long between visits. It's so cute to see them get excited when we arrive. Can't recommend them enough.”
“Nazgul and her son are so kind and caring. She kept us updated throughout our cat’s stay with text messages and pictures of how our cat is doing. Thank you so much Nazgul for taking such a great care of our fur baby.”
“Lori is a natural caretaker. She provided so much love and attention to Zara, my standard poodle. I could see how much fun Zara was having through the photogenic pictures Lori sent each day. Lori's 1-acre of land is such a plus for the dogs to run and play. At the end of the stay, Zara and Lori were both sad to part. That speaks volumes about the wonderful level of care your pet will receive while staying with Lori. Book her now!”
“We were so pleased that we found Vadym for our Bella. Vadym and his family were very good with Bella and treated her like their own. They have a nice home with a good size backyard, and Vadym would play ball with Bella for break time. We got photos and videos from Vadym every day. I will definitely use Vadym again next time. Will also recommends his service to others too.”
“Tatyanah & Everardo did an awesome job with my Pup Isla!!! My Pup is very timid around other pups, but Tatyanah, Everardo, and their pups made Her feel very welcome. I received videos and pictures throughout the time Isla stayed at their home. I asked them for feedback and tips on how I can get Isla more comfortable around other pups. I would definitely recommend them. Isla will be seeing them soon as I plan to bring Isla back! Thank you Tatyanah and Everardo!”
“Anasteysha and her family were excellent! Our dog Cookie really enjoyed her stay and was able to play with other dogs. Anasteysha was very responsive and sent many pictures/videos while we were away. We will use their services again!”
“Tricia and her family treated Iko like part of the family. She sent me plenty of updates and pictures, Iko looked very comfortable and at home there. Having a senior dog, it’s very hard for me to leave him, but I felt at ease leaving him Tricia. Already planning on booking his next stay with her!”
“Acausha did an amazing job caring for our two little pups. I was so worried about leaving them fur eight days but I didn’t need to be. Acausha was very patient with our nervous older dog and did a great job with our energetic younger dog. She even sent pictures regularly throughout our trip. I highly recommend Acausha!”
“Sana did a fantastic job taking care of my puppy. She kept me updated throughout the day with timely photos and messages, which gave me great peace of mind. My pup seemed happy, well-cared-for and very comfortable with Sana and her family . Highly recommended for reliability, communication, and genuine care.”
“Our dog loved her stay with Shannon and her family! Shannon was very flexible and communicative while our dog stayed with her during our wedding weekend. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Shannon again in the future!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we were so lucky to find Brandy! She took great care of our super anxious dog, Kona. We especially appreciated all the daily pictures and updates which provided us with comfort knowing he was doing well without us. An added bonus was Kona meeting Winston and having a bestie for a few days. We couldn’t have been more pleased with his stay at Brandy’s home. Thank you Brandy and Lt. Dan so much!”
“Marta and her beautiful family took excellent care of our Yogi. We loved all the pictures and video. Seeing my dog happy and well while I’m away puts my mind and heart at ease. Thanks, Marta!”
“We could not be happier finding Robby and Eman! Louie was so happy and I really think he wanted to stay with them! :) They treated Louie like he belonged to them, what more could you ask for!? We are definitely using them again! Many Thanks!!!”

“We were very happy with Noemy, the cats are not used to us not being here and she actually sent pictures of them and they did not hide the entire time (this is huge!!!!!) Will definitely be a repeat customer”
“I had never used Rover or any service like it before and I was so nervous. I used the house sitting service and Anna was so sweet and took care of my two cats. Not only were the kitties taken care of and loved on, she kept the house all clean! She sent photos and when I reached out she replied in a very timely manner! Anna made my time away home a lot less stressful knowing she took care of everything so well. Any future trips, I’ll definitely be wanting Anna to watch the cats! Thank you ❤️”

About: Hey there! I’m a local college student currently studying to become an RN, and I’m home for the summer bringing fresh energy and a genuine passion for pet care. I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember and grew up on a family farm surrounded by animals of all kinds, from horses and donkeys to our beloved dogs, cats, and everything in between! Over the years, I’ve helped walk and care for dogs for many different families, including first responders and nurses with long or unpredictable work hours. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable and caring looking after your pets! My flexible schedule allows me to provide dependable care tailored to your pet’s needs, and my active lifestyle means your dogs will get plenty of exercise, attention, and playful energy. I treat every animal like family and would love the opportunity to care for your furry friends!
About: Growing up in the country, my environment was filled with dogs, which gave me hands-on experience with different breeds early on. I have cared for everything from small, high-energy breeds like Chihuahua's to larger, and stronger breeds like Rottweilers and Pit-bulls. This exposure taught me how to adapt to the unique needs of each dog, including their exercise routines, feeding habits, and personality quirks. My ability to connect with dogs of all sizes and temperaments ensures they feel secure and cared for under my supervision. Rounded up I have five years of experience caring for dogs of different temperaments, sizes, and breeds making knowledge, communication, and compassion key skills of mine! These skills have been used to care for all types of dogs, whether it be seniors, new borns, or behavior challenged dogs! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine, my flexible schedule allows me to prioritize the needs of the animals in my care. As a high school graduate, I have the freedom to manage my time efficiently, ensuring I can provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. I schedule feeding times, walks, medications, and potty breaks around my coursework, giving each pet the structure they need while staying on top of my responsibilities. My ability to balance these tasks ensures that pets always feel cared for, even during busy periods. Having free weekends also allows me to dedicate more time to pets, who need consistent attention or engagement. I use this time for exercise, mental stimulation, or grooming, depending on the dogs needs and abilities. My focus on time management ensures that each pet is always prioritized, with plenty of quality time and attention incorporated into their routine. My goal is to provide a calm, nurturing, and healthy environment. I can ensure that pet care will fit seamlessly into my routine, allowing me to meet the needs for every dog I meet! Caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home, revolves around creating a safe, nurturing, and comfortable environment that fosters trust and well being. Safety is my top priority, which includes securing the living space to prevent accidents, removing hazardous items, and ensuring pets have access to fresh water and appropriate food for their dietary needs. I carefully monitor their behavior to identify any signs of distress or illness and address them promptly. For outdoor activities, I use secure leashes or harnesses and supervise them, and monitor them while off leash closely. Building trust with pets is essential to providing effective care. I take time to understand their unique personalities, preferences, and routines. By approaching them gently, respecting their boundaries, and offering positive reinforcement, this creates a sense of security and reliability. Whether it’s maintaining consistency in feeding schedules, potty breaks, and spending quality time/playing, I strive to create a comfortable environment for each dog I meet. I can ensure they feel valued and cared for, the environment I provide is clean, stimulating, and adapted to their specific needs. I offer comfortable resting areas, engaging toys, and plenty of space to explore. If I’m in a client’s home, I respect their established routines and follow their care instructions precisely, maintaining a seamless transition for the pet. Ultimately, my approach combines attentiveness, compassion, and professionalism to ensure every pet thrives under my care.
“Marolyn was fantastic! She was on time for every appointment, sent me a photo at each drop in and took my last minute request and adjusted for my needs. I would recommend her 100%!”
About: A passionate caretaker with a lifetime of experience with love and understanding for all pups! Experience with professional caretaking, positive reinforcement dog training, and foster care. I usually do pet sitting around my work schedule and am always ready for dog sitting days 😸 My work started in San Diego and Los Angeles, most recently making the move to Boise where I’ve fallen in love with the area. In my clients home I always make sure I know I everything I need to know about the pup to make them feel as comfortable at safe as possible. New caretakers can be spooky to our pets sometimes and positive, proper introductions are very essential! I make sure to communicate with the owners about the dogs needs and make sure I am aware of any notes or concerns.
About: Growing up there was always some kind of pet wondering the halls. I've cared for dogs, cats, reptiles, ducks ginnipigs etc... I love all types of animals and making their day just that much better, either with a walk or some company. Right now I'm searching for new opportunities and thought I'd try Rover. I'm available for weekdays, weekends, holidays, when you need a vacation or some alone time. House and dog sitting are new for me there are some things I have to learn. I like to go on daily walks/run with my dog Sometimes we'll go to the beach she's a bit older so we take it easy.
About: I’ve been caring for cats since I was 12 years old. What started as helping neighbors with their feline companions quickly grew through word-of-mouth as they saw how responsible, patient, and dedicated I was with their pets. Over the years, I’ve built lasting relationships with both cats and their owners, and every cat has taught me something new. I understand that each feline has a unique personality, whether they’re playful, shy, independent, or affectionate, and I take the time to earn their trust while providing loving, attentive care. My goal is to make every cat feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away, giving pet parents peace of mind knowing their beloved companion is in compassionate and experienced hands. 🐾
About: I am extroverted and creative, and I have an affinity for people having unique inspirations and passions. I really love animals, but sadly, have none to call my own! I would love to be around them more, and offer my help and care to the community who may need it. I have been inconsistently house sitting and dog walking for years now, but I am now hoping to do it more often! I have a lack of reviews, but it’s not for lack of experience :) I am laid back and I have a very flexible schedule! My availability is almost entirely open. Let me know if you need care last minute! I enjoy giving them outdoor time, so they can run around, and let out all their excitement and energy. I also love giving them little treats, when they are allowed!

About: I recently took a break from dog sitting to focus on caring for my baby. Now that things have settled into a routine, I'm excited to start accepting bookings again! I have 6+ years dog-sitting experience with dogs of many different sizes and temperaments. Personally I have a 85 pound German Shepherd mix, Turbo, a 40 pound labradoodle, Maple, and an 80 pound Rottie/GSD mix named Tater. I thoroughly enjoy playing with them everyday and have learned many training techniques from raising them. I have a great deal of experience caring for a highly allergic and anxious dog. I understand the helplessness that can often come with trying to find a treatment that works. If your dog has allergies/skin issues, or any other special needs, I'm more than happy to help. Rest assured your dog will be given the love and attention they need to feel comfortable in my home. We do have 1 cat (named Sesame) who would prefer to be left alone. If your dog is very reactive around cats this will not be a good fit. I am a stay- at- home mom and my husband works from home, so we can offer a great amount of flexibility with drop-off and pick-up times. Your dog will be supervised 24/7 when in my care. I have a large (2.3 acre), fully-fenced backyard for optimal play! I have three friendly dogs who would love to show your dog all the best sniff spots. We also love going on walks, playing fetch, taking naps, and playing "find it." I've taken a dog CPR class to better understand the warning signs of a dog in distress, and what actions to take in an emergency. Being a pet parent myself, I greatly understand the peace of mind that comes from knowing your dog is safe and happy. Therefore, I will always send you multiple updates, with photos, every day throughout your dogs stay. Please let me know if you have any questions! I'd love to schedule a meet and greet. I can't wait to meet your pup!
“Nazgul and her family were exceptionally warm and attentive with Midnight. From the moment we arrived, I could tell she would settle in quickly and feel at home. Their updates and photos were thoughtful and reassuring, and it was clear she was genuinely cared for. I highly recommend Nazgul and her family to anyone seeking a safe, loving environment for their pet.”
“Shannon to the rescue and always takes good care of Sandy!! Would highly recommend Shannon for all your pet sitting needs. She’s caring and responds right away to any questions you may have.”
“She is amazing, send videos, pictures, and updates throughout the day and is a very kind person. This was our puppy’s first ever doggy daycare experience and im so happy I picked Acausha! I will definitely rebook with her next time I need it!”
“Trish and her family are the best. My dog gets all of the love when she is over and comes home exhausted and has happy dreams. Trish is a great communicator and sends fun pics through the day so my work day is that much better. Moving forward, I will be making arrangements for my dog to stay with Trish and fam when I am out of town so that I can travel assured my pup will have all of the love in my absence.”
“Kathryn & Matt Took great care of Charlie. Charlie was always excited when we pulled up to their house. They have a nice setup for your pet to play in the backyard or go on walks in a nice neighborhood.”
“My dog had an amazing day playing with them and their dogs. Great communication, friendly, available last minute. Thank you. I would recommend and absolutely use them again.”
“What a very nice booking! Great experience all the way around. I felt like I've known Eman and Robby for some time after just meeting the both of them. They are extremely nice and very caring sitters for my dog, Sasha. Thank you so much for all the photos and the video to keep in touch through the day. Sasha enjoyed her stay!”
About: I have been taking care of animals for almost 9 years. I have grown up knowing the responsibility of what animals need and how to take care of them. I also truly have a love for animals. I love playing with them. I love being near them, and because I’m so young, I have almost if not more energy to put into the animals. my pets have required special needs and care and knowing that care and experiencing it first hand, I know how to put that learning experiences other situations Currently i’m a high school student so my hours vary. So Monday- Friday i can only walk or care for animals from the times of 5-7am and 3-11pm. The weekends i’m always available and ready to be at your assistance. I love animals so much and always jumping at the opportunity to see one. I have 4 pets of my own and have been carrying the responsibility of keeping them safe for almost ten years. I’ve learned how to keep them safe from other animals and from escaping from home, With this experience in mind i can take what i know and use it with your animals. I know how to crate animals if needed and protected from any outside forces.
“Sierra was great with my dog. Took her on a last minute booking and was super flexible. My dog can be anxious with new settings and she immediately connected with sierra and settled right in at the little dog haven they have created.”
About: Hello! My name is Fidencio, (my family calls me John, and you can too). I am 32 years old and have a long history of caring for dogs in my family. In 2005, my Father rescued a puppy from war torn Iraq. He fell in love with Target, our Iraqi dog, while he was deployed there. I remember my dad calling my mom, begging her to please find a way to get Target home, to California, over 7000 miles away. We went to work as a family finding any possible way to get our small puppy back home. Long story short, because we love animals, we got Target shipped to LAX. Target was what we considered an animal refugee. I remember going on the drive to LAX as a 5th grader to go pick up Target, when I first saw him he was scared, being shipped across the globe and being separated from his owner on the journey. But as soon as we got in the car we broke the crate open, we instantly all fell in love. Dedication to protecting a caring for animals is something that runs deep for me. And opening up our home to do that for others is an honor. I’ve attached some photos of Target, our 1st family dog. Looking at these older photos is such a trip! Blast from the past if you will. My Dad is now retired from the USMC and has a service dog jack, who is pictured above. He loves to play with other dogs and is very friendly. Hope you meet you and your pet soon! I am home full time and will always be there for you and your pet! Can be contacted 24/7 and checkup anytime. I’m just a call away. I care for other pets the same I would care for my own. With love, patience, and care. These things come naturally as an animal lover!
About: I am a reliable and dedicated dog sitter with six years of experience. I genuinely enjoy what I do, and I understand that each dog has their own personality, needs, and routines. I take time to make sure each dog in my care feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you are away. I enjoy being surrounded by dogs and learning new things along the way, I strive to create a positive environment where pets can relax and feel secure as if they were at home. I know how important trust and communication are when leaving a pet with a sitter. That’s why I focus on being dependable, responsible, and respectful of both pets and their homes. I provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured that their dogs are happy, safe, and receiving the best care possible. Through my years of experience, I have cared for dogs of many different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I am comfortable working with energetic dogs that require frequent exercise as well as calmer or older dogs that need a slower pace and more patience. My responsibilities have included feeding schedules, administering basic medications if needed, maintaining secure spaces for puppies and seniors, ensuring clean water and bedding, daily walks, monitored playtime, leash training, kennel training, connecting with anxious or aggressive dogs, etc. I have also gained experience understanding dog body language and behavioral cues. This has helped me recognize when a dog may be stressed, excited, tired, or in need of attention. Being attentive to these signals allows me to respond appropriately and provide care that fits each dog’s personality and needs. My goal is to make sure every pet feels secure and relaxed while in my care. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, which is why I prioritize reliability, communication, and respect. I make sure to keep owners updated with messages and photos so they know their dog is being well cared for. Building trust with both pets and their owners is very important to me. Overall, my experience caring for animals has taught me patience, responsibility, and attention to detail. I genuinely enjoy spending time with the dogs I care for, and I strive to provide a safe, attentive, and positive environment where every dog feels comfortable and loved. Caring for dogs is a natural part of my daily routine. I structure my schedule so I have plenty of time to give dogs the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Because of this, I’m able to stay consistent with walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and constant supervision. Throughout the week, I intentionally set aside time for dog care activities such as walks, outdoor breaks, enrichment, and quality interaction. I enjoy being active and spending time outside, so taking dogs on walks or letting them explore safely is something that fits easily into my lifestyle. This allows me to provide pets with both physical activity and mental stimulation. In addition to basic care, I also make time to simply spend quality time with the pets I watch. Whether it’s playing, giving attention, or keeping them company, I believe dogs benefit from having someone present who is patient and engaged with them. I try to make sure every dog feels comfortable and cared for during their stay. I am used to maintaining structured care routines, which is important for helping dogs stay relaxed while their owners are away. I follow feeding schedules carefully, make sure pets always have fresh water, and ensure they get regular bathroom breaks and exercise. Sticking to their normal routine helps dogs feel safe and reduces unnecessary stress. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my main goal is to keep their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions for feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific care preferences. Maintaining a familiar routine helps pets feel safe and reduces stress while their owners are away. In terms of boarding in my home, I create a calm and safe environment where dogs have space to relax, play, and receive plenty of attention. I make sure they get regular potty breaks, daily walks, and time for exercise and mental stimulation. I also monitor them closely to ensure they are comfortable and adjusting well to the new environment. When house sitting in a client’s home, I focus on keeping the pet’s care exactly how they are used to it. I provide feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship while also keeping the home clean with respect to the owner’s space. Staying in the pet’s familiar environment often helps them feel more relaxed while their owner is away. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and body language to make sure they are comfortable and happy. If a dog is more energetic, I make sure they get enough activity. If they are older or more relaxed, I adjust the care to be calm and patient. Communication is very important to me while caring for pets. I provide regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are safe and happy. My goal is to give pets reliable and attentive care.

“Alicia and Christian were great with Rocco. You could tell he had a nice time. They were amazing at accommodating a relatively last minute booking request so super grateful. They were awesome! 🤍”
“Erin was great with our boy for daycare! He came back tired which means he had lots of fun! She was very careful knowing he has a lot of food allergies and made sure he wasn’t exposed to those foods!”
“They were amazing with Moose! We had a last minute need for dog sitting and they were able to accommodate within 30 minutes. We felt quite lucky. They even provided their own leash, water bowl, bed, and treats so we didn’t have to leave his stuff at all. Thank you both!!!”
About: I am currently home full-time while homeschooling my youngest child who is now in his teens. We ADORE all animals! Our schedule is extremely flexible, which allows us to work with whatever schedule needs you have. I have a huge heart and could not live without animals in my life. I am very active and look forward to the opportunity to walk, play and love on your pets! For the past 40+ years I have owned, fostered and cared for dogs, cats, bunnies, turtles, horses and more. I recently lost my Great Dane after a decade of getting to love him. He had DCM since he was a puppy so I have extensive knowledge of caring for that, giant breed needs and know how to track and administer many medications. Being a stay at home mom I've often thought about walking and caring for other animals while they're humans are away at work or vacay! I recently discovered Rover and know this is a perfect fit for me! I am very patient and have experience with all areas of pet care from walking to medication dosing and everything in between! I am currently home full-time while homeschooling my youngest child who is now in his teens. Our schedule is extremely flexible, which allows us to work with whatever schedule needs you have. I have a very large, completely fenced in yard with a locked gate. We are taking a break from pet ownership and would love to open our home to care for your animals. I have experience caring for dogs and other household pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, long or shorter walks, cuddles on the couch, or sticking to their usual routine, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special care requirements to ensure your pet feels happy and secure.
About: From a very young age I learned to care for pets and farm animals. In 4-H I studied animal husbandry. As an adult, I have had many dogs and cats. I love them as my family. My last two rescue dogs (American Pit Bull Terriers) made it to almost 13 years old before they crossed the rainbow bridge over the last few years. I am not ready for my own new family member, but I still miss the companionship of animals. So it just seems right to take care of yours. I am semi-retired, so I am free on most weekdays except Wednesdays. I get up early and do chores around the house in the morning, then go outside for a bit in the afernoons unless it is too hot. I live on 40 acres in the countryside. It's not fenced but I can take your pups for a great walk around the property on a leash. I have 3 spare bedrooms if they need quiet space. Or I have a kennel in my bedroom if they like to be with someone.
About: Your pet will be treated like my own ! I have 10+ years of experience caring for pets and have a genuine love for all animals. In addition to dogs and cats I have also cared for small mammals, reptiles, birds and fish. I recently lost my beloved dog after 18 years so look forward to the opportunity to care for your pet with the same love and care I gave my own. I know it can be stressful to trust someone else to care for your animals and to come into to your home, so I want to make you feel as comfortable as possible by understanding yours and your pet's needs. I also will always send consistent updates to my clients as well as pictures of their pets. My schedule is very flexible and I am able to accommodate most times and days needed. I do not have a set schedule aside from sometimes picking up my son from school so I can easily meet the needs of your pet. I believe in treating a client's home with the utmost respect and care. You will always come home to a clean house and happy pets. I am more than happy to water plants, assist with any home care needs, organization, etc.

I believe trust is important, so I communicate with pet owners to give them peace of mind. Your pet will get personal attention, lots of love, and fun activities, making their time with me enjoyable and stress-free. You can be confident that I will create a friendly and positive atmosphere for all pets!
“Jill has been great with my 3 dogs. My youngest dog, Marley, was a little stand-offish at first. Jill was patient and was able to take him on his walks. They all enjoy getting out with Jill. She is responsive, flexible, and professional. I highly recommend Jill to take care of and walk your pets.”

“Lety was amazing! She was so patient and kind with my pup who is a bit reactive. She was also very attentive and communicative. She let me know how sofie was doing each time she checked on her and gave her lots of love and cuddles while we were away. Really appreciated her help when we were out of town and will definitely be requesting her for future services. Thank you, Lety!”

About: ✨ Greetings, and welcome! I’m Eucalyptus—your Fur Godmother. 🧚🏽♀️🐾 Animals have been the greatest joy of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up caring for pets of all kinds, and for the past 8 years I’ve had the privilege of providing professional pet care for families who trust me with their beloved companions. My experience includes dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, rabbits, ferrets, farm animals, aquatic pets, and many other exotic species. I’ve also cared for senior pets, puppies and kittens, pets with special needs, and animals that require extra patience, medication, or individualized attention. What makes me different is the connection I build with each animal. Every pet has their own personality, routine, and way of communicating. I take the time to earn their trust, making sure they feel safe, understood, and genuinely loved while you’re away. Whether your companion is energetic, shy, anxious, or simply enjoys quiet company, I tailor my care to what makes them happiest. Over the years I’ve helped reinforce good manners, redirect unwanted behaviors through positive interactions, and create calm, enriching experiences that help pets feel comfortable in their own environment. Pet care isn’t just something I do—it’s my full-time passion. When your furry, feathered, or scaly family member is with me, they’re treated like one of my own.

“We had Kristen house sit for us and take care of our Golden Retriever. She was great - good communication in the planning stages and flexible with our plans. When we were gone she sent lots of photos and updates, which we appreciated. On our return, Kristen had stripped the bed and washed her bedding. Wow! We felt completely comfortable leaving our baby in her care and I wouldn't hesitate to use her again.”
About: As a lifelong dog lover, I've been caring for dogs since I was 9 years old and currently have a furry friend of my own. With years of experience, I've become the go-to dog sitter for family, friends, and neighbors, whether it's for a quick drop-in or an overnight stay. From playful pups to senior companions, I’m dedicated to giving each dog the attention, care, and love they deserve while their owners are away. Your pet will feel right at home with me! As a hairstylist and makeup artist working four days a week, I love balancing my creative work with my passion for caring for pets on my days off. With a flexible schedule, I can devote my free time to providing dedicated, reliable care for your furry friends. Whether it's a quick visit or an overnight stay, I ensure every pet feels loved and looked after while you're away. When caring for pets in my home or yours, I strictly follow every instruction provided by the pet parent. I understand how crucial it is to stick to routines and adhere to any dietary or health restrictions for your pet’s safety. Having a dog with strict dietary requirements myself, I know firsthand how stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone and worry if they will be cared for properly. That’s why I make it my priority to follow all rules and guidelines, so you can feel 100% confident that your pet is in good hands.
About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 14. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk and feed their dogs. My schedule is free right now. Currently this is my full time job so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your dog ! Establishing a routine. Regular feeding times, clean living space, proper exercise, providing fresh water , and following instructions from pet owner at all times !
About: I absolutely love dogs. My families dog passed away last year, and while I can’t take on a dog of my own I would love to help care for yours! My family had a chihuahua, but my extended family has had doodles, mixed breeds, beagles, and I have cared for friends larger mixed breeds, boxers, and even little weenie dogs! I am a great resource as I am reliable, I have a flexible schedule as I am an online college student, and access to parking downtown which makes walks around the lake easily accessible! I’d love to get to help care for your pups! As I mentioned above I am an online college student. Most of my courses are asynchronous, allowing me to set my own schedule! I have a barista job as well but with minimal hours on the weekends. With that I can tailor my pet sitting to whatever is needed for each family! I started pet sitting beyond my families pets in high school, and since then have cared for so many of my friends pets. I know how important these pets are to each of them, and I want to do whatever I can to make their dogs happy. Again with having a very flexible schedule I can accommodate for more hands on pets. I love quality time, so I’d be happy to just be there for your pets. I am also really excited anytime I get to be outdoors in the beautiful weather in Austin. I would be happy to prioritize getting pets out into the world and being active myself! Ultimately I have a lot of time and energy to provide exactly the care your pet needs!

“Erica and Ronald were amazing with our dog chip. They took him in tons of walks, went to the park, and gave him lots of love. They treated him as if he were their own. He LOVED Their dog turbo! They got along wonderfully. They sent picture updates multiple times a day which made us feel so comforted. We HIGHLY recommend!”
“Erica was amazing with my pups! We received pics and updates throughout their stay. My pups were well taken care of and comfy with Erica and her family. Thank you for taking care of my dogs on short notice too ❤️❤️❤️”
“Matt and Kathryn are absolutely wonderful with our dogs. Never, in all our years of being pet owners, have we taken a vacation without our animals. But we just got back from a week abroad without any concerns for our pups because we knew they were in the very best care. Our dogs miss Matt and Kathryn and their dogs when they go too long between visits. It's so cute to see them get excited when we arrive. Can't recommend them enough.”
“Lori is a natural caretaker. She provided so much love and attention to Zara, my standard poodle. I could see how much fun Zara was having through the photogenic pictures Lori sent each day. Lori's 1-acre of land is such a plus for the dogs to run and play. At the end of the stay, Zara and Lori were both sad to part. That speaks volumes about the wonderful level of care your pet will receive while staying with Lori. Book her now!”
“Tatyanah & Everardo did an awesome job with my Pup Isla!!! My Pup is very timid around other pups, but Tatyanah, Everardo, and their pups made Her feel very welcome. I received videos and pictures throughout the time Isla stayed at their home. I asked them for feedback and tips on how I can get Isla more comfortable around other pups. I would definitely recommend them. Isla will be seeing them soon as I plan to bring Isla back! Thank you Tatyanah and Everardo!”
“Tricia and her family treated Iko like part of the family. She sent me plenty of updates and pictures, Iko looked very comfortable and at home there. Having a senior dog, it’s very hard for me to leave him, but I felt at ease leaving him Tricia. Already planning on booking his next stay with her!”
“Acausha did an amazing job caring for our two little pups. I was so worried about leaving them fur eight days but I didn’t need to be. Acausha was very patient with our nervous older dog and did a great job with our energetic younger dog. She even sent pictures regularly throughout our trip. I highly recommend Acausha!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we were so lucky to find Brandy! She took great care of our super anxious dog, Kona. We especially appreciated all the daily pictures and updates which provided us with comfort knowing he was doing well without us. An added bonus was Kona meeting Winston and having a bestie for a few days. We couldn’t have been more pleased with his stay at Brandy’s home. Thank you Brandy and Lt. Dan so much!”
“Marta and her beautiful family took excellent care of our Yogi. We loved all the pictures and video. Seeing my dog happy and well while I’m away puts my mind and heart at ease. Thanks, Marta!”
“Amazing experience. I'm so glad we found David and Jeanette. Their family home is setup perfectly for pup sitting and everyone is properly experienced with dog care. Our three dogs (aged 2-13) loved their vacation with these Rovers.”
“Corinne and Christopher are great Rover sitters. They were very responsive to messages and most importantly took great care of my girl Busaba. I felt like she was in good hands. I would definitely recommend them and would use them again.”
“Sandra took care of my dog for almost 12 days. When we first visited Sandra and her dog Max for a meet and greet, my dog Wolfie immediately wanted to play with Max. They played very well together and I felt comfortable leaving my best buddy with Sandra and Max. Sandra kept me updated with photos and text messages. I would not hesitate to recommend Sandra as a responsible pet sitter.”
“We were so happy that Holly was able to stay with Angie and her lovely family while we were gone for 5 days. We are picky when it comes to finding the right place for Holly and we lucked out again. I felt like Angie showed as much love and excitement as we do and let Holly have all the same comforts of home, like letting her up on the bed with her son and even got a Thanksgiving dinner treat. Angie has a large yard for big dogs to move around and let her swim in her pool which Holly loves. Boo Radley may be large but he's the sweetest dog around and Holly enjoyed the company. Angie was also very understanding and accommodating with our schedule, which kept changing, and we appreciated that.”
“At first, I was hesitant because I’ve never left our fur baby with a petsitter before but my worries were put to rest. David is absolutely wonderful! He gives updates,very detailed in asking about Rocky’s routines. He’s highly recommended and we’ll definitely use his services again.”
“Dana was super great with my Pit Brewsky! He made himself right at home! She definitely has the magic touch when it came to trimming his nails; he is VERY sensitive to anyone touching his paws/nails and she was able to work with him successfully! She gave great feedback and advice based on his personality and needs as well. Dana will be our go to sitter from now on!! 🤍”
“Cecelia was such an amazing care taker for our Lily. We got daily video updates with Lily relaxed and having a good time with her. Highly recommend and I will be using her again. Thank you, Cecilia!”
“Michele is the best dog sitter! I could tell they were well taken care of by her and she gave them lots of love! She sent pictures every day and they looked so happy. I will definitely use her the next time I go out of town!”
