My wife and I left the country for about 10 days and were worried because we have never left our dog with strangers or in a kennel because he is older and adopted. He has a weird routine and glaucoma so he needed a little extra care but they handled him perfectly and he fit right into their routine. Melanie and her family saved us 100%! They constantly sent us pics and updates on him which made us feel better. They took care of him as if he was part of their family and we greatly appreciate it. 10/10!

This was my first time using Rover and I was pleased with Jessica’s quick response time and enthusiasm to meet and care for Blanca. The process was easy and drop off went smoothly. Jessica’s dog was in a kennel when we arrived to make drop off less stressful for both dogs. The pups were introduced after we left to get their sniffing done on neutral territory (on a walk out front). We received photos and updates during our whole time away and knew Blanca was happy and safe. We would be happy to use Jessica again in the future!

Lara took him took for long walks and to play with another pup, both of which he loves. We will definitely let him stay again!

Jessica took care of my dog Iommi for a long weekend while I traveled out of state for my brother's wedding. It was my first time leaving Iommi and Jessica was the perfect person to leave her with. I was admittedly anxious about leaving Iommi for the first time, but as soon as I arrived the morning of drop-off Jessica made me feel 100% at ease. She took care of Iommi like she was her own and I know Iommi had a great time staying with Jessica and her family and playing with her dog Rip. I highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for care for their pet! I will definitely be booking with Jessica again!

About: I've had animals almost my entire life. Right now, we have a 15 year old red tabby cat and a 5 1/2 year old American Bulldog. I have experience with all sizes of dogs and am comfortable around other animals. We moved to an acreage in rural Dallas County in 2017. If interested in boarding or daycare, please message me. We have an UNFENCED yard (1.7 acres) and we are next door to a cattle ranch operation, so please take those factors into consideration. I have had a pet sitter watch our animals in the past (and I can be picky). I would love to provide your pet with the utmost care, just as I would expect to receive from anyone watching my animals. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies!

I've worked in an animal shelter, a dog boarding and daycare facility, and a dog training facility, giving me experience with everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs and pets with unique needs. I'm currently earning my animal training certification, which continues to strengthen my understanding of animal behavior and positive, reward-based handling techniques. My goal is to provide every pet with safe, attentive, and compassionate care while making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and loved when you're away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, enrichment activities, or simply relaxing with a companion, I'll tailor my care to their individual personality and routine. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your best friend, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I provide pet care full-time, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide your pet with the attention and care they deserve. Whether you need weekday walks, weekend care, or holiday check-ins, I'll do my best to accommodate your schedule. I'm committed to being reliable, responsive, and ensuring your pet receives the time, attention, and companionship they need while you're away! When caring for pets in your home, my priority is keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible! I'll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any other routines that help your pet feel comfortable and secure. With over four years of professional experience in animal care, I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I treat every home with the same respect I would my own and every pet as if they were part of my family.

About: I'd love to be your professional pet sitter! When I'm with your fur baby, they are my full-time concern. I'll send you pictures of your happy pet while you are away. I know how animals miss their human, and I do everything I can to make their stay-cation with me enjoyable while you are away from home. My clients refer to my home as the Petz Carleton. It's my pleasure to care for them. Each of my clients goes home with a personalized toy. I'm retired, but I do some freelance writing work, which takes eight or nine hours a week. My writing never interferes with my focus on your fur baby. I walk every day in my beautiful neighborhood and would love to have your pet's company. My schedule is open. I go to Church on Sunday mornings, and feel free to reach out for more references to Mymemos. That is the Yahoo email address that I will respond to. The meet-and-greet we do will be very thorough. I will ask lots of questions about your pet and take notes. I'll also want contact information for you, your vet, and a trusted friend. Once I have that information, your pet will be cared for like you were there. I'll show you where your pet will sleep if they are used to sleeping with mom and dad.

Tamara is just fantastic. She was great and attentive to my dog and her dogs are so sweet and got along perfectly with him! She has a giant yard for them to play and he came home every time just so happy and relaxed! He slept like a baby both times! He clearly loved her, her kids, and her dogs! Such a wonderful family and home! She did such a great job at such a great price! I can’t recommend her enough! I will try and book her first when looking for anything regarding care for my dog! Thanks Tamara!

Melanie and family were so friendly that my dogs—a 4- and a 12- year-old Havanese—relaxed immediately. Melanie met us in the yard and the dogs trotted away with her without looking back. The dogs were with her for 6 hours and she sent multiple photos and status updates. We would definitely ask Melanie to watch our dogs again!

About: I've pet/house sat for multiple people in the past. Animals include dogs, cats, fish, and reptiles. I like to have a meet and greet before ever staying with your pets alone. If you have any special diets or quirks make sure we discuss them in advance! I don't mind staying for a few hours to watch your animals or just drop in, whatever is needed! I have a nighttime job so, your animals will need to be able to be alone at night a few days of the week! I will discuss meal plan, how often you walk them/let them outside, and if they have meds with you prior to caring for your animals.

About: I've had animals almost my entire life. Right now, we have a 15 year old red tabby cat and a 5 1/2 year old American Bulldog. I have experience with all sizes of dogs and am comfortable around other animals. We moved to an acreage in rural Dallas County in 2017. If interested in boarding or daycare, please message me. We have an UNFENCED yard (1.7 acres) and we are next door to a cattle ranch operation, so please take those factors into consideration. I have had a pet sitter watch our animals in the past (and I can be picky). I would love to provide your pet with the utmost care, just as I would expect to receive from anyone watching my animals. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies!

About: I found my first love for dogs when I was about 5, and begged my mom to rescue Burrito Bob. I then grew up always having a dog around. My junior year of high school I decided to buy my very own goldendoodle, Toby James. Toby is the best dog ever, and more so my child than my dog! I have 2 goldendoodle’s of my own, and they have learned very quickly what it’s like to be spoiled (we love drive through, the word pup-cup, and car rides! Of course we also love going on walks and runs! I have grown up living with 5 dogs at once of all different breeds! I’ve also recently learned how to groom my own doodles! Dogs hold a special place in my heart, and I’d love to care for your dogs like my own! I have 2 pups of my own that I treat like children! I enjoy taking my dogs for long walks and taking care of them! I will walk and let dogs out during the days! I have a 70 and 30 pound doodle that I walk at the same time! We recently welcomed our first non-fur baby into our home in October, and I am looking for a way to be the best mom I can be! What better way than daily walks and our absolute favorite thing - dogs?!

About: Hello there! My name is Coty and I am here to help provide exercise, care, and happiness to your beloved fury ones! I grew up with at least one, if not two dogs in the home at all times. I currently have two dogs and they mean the world to me! I have a 13 year old Terrier-Chihuahua mix. His name is Oliver, or Ollie for short. He is a rescue dog and is my absolute pride and joy. He’s slowed down quite a bit in the last year and his health has also declined. Fortunately, he still loves going on walks and getting cuddles! With that, I have experience caring for and providing medication to senior dogs. My other fur baby is a four year old Bernadoodle, named Gus. Gus has completed our little family with his playfulness and love for humans. If Gus could talk, he’d tell you that he’s a 70 pound lap dog! He absolutely loves his walks, catching his beloved football, snuggles, and any time outside! Dogs are such a huge part of my life and I truly wouldn’t have it any other way! I am currently working full time but am free during the week after 4:30pm and available any weekend I’m not marked as not available any time. I treat others homes and animals with the same respect that I treat mine with. To a lot of us, our pets are our fur babies. I treat them with care, patience, and compassion.

About: My mother runs my hometown's animal shelter; I built it with her from the ground up when I was eight. Ever since then I have continued to help when I visit home. I have worked with all personality types, breeds, and exceptional cases. I've done hands-on work with elderly pets to newborn puppies and kittens. In addition, I have house-sat for owners with many cats to one, a variety of dogs, and many with specific needs throughout the day. I myself have a dog and it's my top priority to give your pet everything it needs to be happy and healthy as if it were my own. I work weekdays from 9-5:30 pm but my calendar will be updated biweekly on weekends I’m available at this time. Feel free to reach out with any questions regarding scheduling! I always ask for a very detailed list of where the food and treats are kept, special medication, things they can and cannot have, etc. I also want to know their favorite toys, what their personality is like, do they like to play fetch, go on walks, or just to have some company indoors. If the animal has any health conditions I ask if I should be aware of anything other than medication when it comes to their health. If you pet is shy around strangers I ask to be shown the best way to approach them in your experience during the first meeting to ensure your pet feels safe.

I have some dogs I currently care for and get to go play outside with them and get some good belly rubs in. Whether you are wanting a mid day potty break or snuggles and care well at work or out of town, I’m here for it all.

This was my first time using Rover and I was pleased with Jessica’s quick response time and enthusiasm to meet and care for Blanca. The process was easy and drop off went smoothly. Jessica’s dog was in a kennel when we arrived to make drop off less stressful for both dogs. The pups were introduced after we left to get their sniffing done on neutral territory (on a walk out front). We received photos and updates during our whole time away and knew Blanca was happy and safe. We would be happy to use Jessica again in the future!

Jessica took care of my dog Iommi for a long weekend while I traveled out of state for my brother's wedding. It was my first time leaving Iommi and Jessica was the perfect person to leave her with. I was admittedly anxious about leaving Iommi for the first time, but as soon as I arrived the morning of drop-off Jessica made me feel 100% at ease. She took care of Iommi like she was her own and I know Iommi had a great time staying with Jessica and her family and playing with her dog Rip. I highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for care for their pet! I will definitely be booking with Jessica again!

Great experience with boarding our 3 year old, Goldendoodle, Mango for the first time! Tanya and fam were great and Mango was exhausted when she came home! We got daily picture updates and she really seemed to enjoy her time there!

Patricia is easily the best sitter I’ve worked with on Rover. She has great communication, been excellent at following tasks specific to our dogs needs, sends plenty of photos, and it is clear that our Boca absolutely adores her and her family. Drop off is a breeze when my dog is thrilled to be there! I highly recommend her to care for your pet!

Cory was very responsive and had great communication before and during Moose’s stay! When we picked up Moose after his stay he was happy and tired. He even got to meet new friends! Cory was easy going and handled my high energy dog well!

About: I grew up with dogs and now have 2 cats and 1 dog of my own. Our cats are both American Shorthair and our dog is a golden retriever! I’m currently a stay at home mom and we love watching some furry friends during our days! We can let them out multiple times, go on walks, and play. Our big fenced in backyard makes for a fun time! I have two very friendly cats who warm up quickly to other animals or hide until they feel comfortable! We also have a golden retriever who loves other animals and loves to play! I live in house with a fenced in backyard!
