“Kristy was absolutely wonderful with our amstaff/lab mix, Coltrane. From the very beginning, she was incredibly communicative, responsive, and thoughtful. She sent us lots of photos and updates throughout his stay, and it was obvious from every picture that Coltrane was happy, relaxed, and genuinely enjoying himself with Kristy and her family. One of the things we appreciated most was seeing Coltrane interacting so naturally and comfortably in their home environment. It gave us complete peace of mind knowing he was being treated like part of the family instead of just being “watched.” Kristy clearly loves dogs and pays close attention to their comfort and well-being. We would absolutely trust her with Coltrane again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and communicative sitter.”
“Maura and her husband are super friendly and very knowledgeable when it comes to dogs. My two large dogs appeared to be well taken care of. Maura communicated well with updates and photos. I highly recommend her.”
“Our dog was taken good care of by Morgan. We were highly satisfied, esp it was our first time leaving our dog with someone else. We will definately take our dog back to her again anytime we need help. May God bless the works of her hands.”
“So happy with Alesha! Friendly, positive, good communication, and knew the right questions to ask for a safe and happy stay for both my dog and her home and family. We couldn’t be happier! We’ll definitely be booking with her again for future trips. :)”
“Sarah did a great job keeping my 2yr old mini aussie for 5 days while we went out of state. She kept me posted on how he was doing and she sent me pics on the regular. Highly recommend! She also has dogs herself and Rio loved it! I think he misses his friends ❤️”
“Stephen and his family were great with our dog (and family member) Rainey. So much better to have a loving family take care of her than boarding her. I highly recommend them. Scott”
“Jenny took great care of our dog. She gave us daily updates and photos on how she was doing which we greatly appreciated. Our dog loved spending time there and playing with Jenny’s dog!”
“Chloe was awesome with my pup Angus. She provided excellent services and communication throughout the sitting period. I will definitely be using her for future sittings! Thank you Chloe!”
“Kaitie was so welcoming to my dog and accommodating! My pup came back happy and worn out (haha thankfully). I absolutely recommend her and will to any of my friends who need pet sitting. Thank you Kaitie!”
About: We are a loving family with various animal experience. My husband has owned cattle and horses and I have owned a horse along with several family dogs. We house sat for an elderly dog earlier this year and would love to look after yours. We did a lot of training with our heeler and are familiar with training collars. On the days your pet is here we will be here to love on and let out as needed. On the occasion we need to leave the house we ask to either have your pet in the kitchen or crated. We have a fenced in yard, an energetic heeler, new lab puppy and 2 kiddos to love and play with your pet. If I'm coming to your house there's the chance I'll have my kiddos with me to walk and play.
“Daisy had a great time staying with Brittany, Max and their family. It’s obvious they love dogs and know how to welcome new pets to their home. Loved getting pics everyday too. Much thanks!”
“They did an amazing job with Nymeria. She was slow to warm up at first, but they kept me updated and reassured me that she was starting to come out of her shell and get comfortable. The communication they provided was very much appreciated and made me feel so much more comfortable knowing she was in a safe and loving environment. She is back home and sleeping soundly now, and I know she had a great time and received plenty of care and attention. It was such a relief knowing she was in good hands and not sitting in a cold kennel without much human interaction. I truly appreciated the care, patience, and communication throughout her stay. I will absolutely be using their services again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets.”

“Ashley was fantastic. I have a shedding and slobber hanging St Bernard Yogi. I knew she was the one for us when she didn't mind at all when he got her clothes covered in dog hair when she came for the initial meet amd greet. She came and checked on our to pets while we were gone on vacation. It was comforting to know that someone who didnt mind all the fur and slobber was there for them while we were gone. Thank you again for watching them. Michelle”
“Yvette was AWESOME with my two cats. She was thorough and did great giving my senior cat his medication even when he was being stubborn and spent the remaining time playing with the kitten and wearing her out.”
“Gracie has done a great job, she even made a friend of Linus our scaredy cat. He would run when people would come over and she got him to let her pet him. We will use her again!”
About: I've had my cat for a while, she came to my door in November so it was rainy and cold and I posted her and called the pound and nobody claimed her and the pound said to leave her outside and they'll see if they can come get her. I decided to keep her and she was mine from then.
“Jennipher did an awesome job taking care of our cat for a long week while we were on vacation. She was very communicative and even sent some photos while we were gone. Highly recommend her services!”
“Best cat sitter ever!! Our cats were well cared for while we were gone. Kylie sent pictures every day and several updates. Our cats were happy when we returned home. I highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve been around pets ever since I can remember and have always had at least 1 dog if not 2. I find genuine joy in spending time with animals and would love nothing more than to spoil your babies like my own! I work your normal M-F 8-5 so through the week I could do early morning and evening visits. On the weekends I can do sporadic visits through the day. I haven’t met a dog I don’t love. I will treat them as if they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of loves and mental stimulation!
About: Hello my name is Lauren. I have over twenty years experience in taking care of cats. I have had numerous cats over the years and have four cats currently. I have worked in a number of vet clinics as a doctor's assistant and kennel technician as well as working in pet resorts, taking care of kitties that are boarding and sick. Cats are one of my favorite animals. I love them so much.
“This was my first time using Rover, and my first time leaving my kitties. I was blown away at how wonderful Ashley was! She was so attentive and wonderful with them. She did perfect with the insulin injections for Pedro and made sure he ate, sent me pictures and I swear my house was cleaner than when I left it! I highly recommend her. 🩵”
“What a relief...so glad we had Gabby. Was happy not worry about my furbaby while out of town!! Gabby was a excellent pet sitter for my cat-She fed and comforted him until we returned. Followed all requests and instructions...will definately have her watch over him each time we leave town!”
About: Seven years ago, I welcomed my first cat into my life, and since then, my appreciation for these amazing creatures has only deepened. Currently, I share my home with two wonderful feline companions who bring endless joy and enrichment to my days. William, the elder of the two, came into my life during the COVID-19 pandemic and prefers a stable, unchanging environment. He dislikes disruptions like new cats or unexpected visitors. On the other paw, Sir Walter Mouselot, my younger boy, is more sociable and open to making new friends, although his grumpy older brother often puts a damper on his efforts. Because of my cats' unique personalities and needs, I've discovered a passion for caring for cats in their own homes. Whether it's providing company, playtime, or simply ensuring their comfort, I tailor my care to meet their individual requirements. My experience has taught me patience, understanding, and a deep respect for the unique bond between humans and felines. I couldn't imagine my life without these furry companions, and I look forward to continuing to enrich their lives as they enrich mine.

About: I’ve been around working dogs most of my life, breeding and raising high-drive dogs and learning how to properly handle different personalities and temperaments. I’ve worked with trainers across the country and have experience with obedience, structure, play, confidence building, and understanding dogs on more than just a basic level. Whether it’s a high-energy working dog or a laid-back family pet, I focus on making dogs feel comfortable, exercised, and cared for like they’re my own. I work with dogs full-time, so your dog will get plenty of attention, structure, and hands-on care throughout the day — not just quick check-ins. I have crates available in multiple sizes, four outdoor runs, and a fully fenced yard to give dogs plenty of safe space and exercise. I also have a very social, well-mannered dog that can interact and play with client dogs if wanted. If preferred, I can also easily keep dogs completely separate thanks to how my setup is designed — whatever makes the owner most comfortable.
About: I grew up on a farm with, cats, dogs, chickens, goats, ducks, geese. rabbits, horses, cattle, and a variety of household pets. I was a veterinary technician for 20 years.

I am currently 100% self-employed and can fit any schedule to work with the needs of your pet's health and safety. I also provide mail and package pickup, set trash out to the curb, water plants. Make your home look lived in while you are away. I do care for dogs in my home, it is a very relaxed environment. I live in the country and do not have a fenced in yard. They are walked on leashes and completely safe. Playpens also provided upon request for playtime outside.

About: Ive been doing Rover now for almost 2 years and it has brought me so much joy and new friends! I worked a summer at kc zoo and it was the most fun job I have ever had. I've had dogs and cats my whole life. Also around horses from my uncle. I have adopted all of my animals from shelters. I love my dogs and cats like they are family. I have a teenage son I have to keep out of petco or any other animal place otherwise he wants to bring all the animals home, joking but not completely untrue. It's how we ended up with our Kitty Maisey. We even took care of the class's bearded dragon over spring break during Covid. He will come along on visits if available as he is the animal whisperer and wants to be a vet. Our 2 dogs are Dottie (our adopted covid pointer mix pup who is the sweetest girl and loves to have visitors to play with), and Marley who is our very sweet, laid back senior dog. Both our pups were rescues. Marley is afraid of thunderstorms and fireworks so we sre familliar with giving medications and making dogs feel safe and comfortable. Dottie is allergic to something during the late summer and September month and takes medicine for that allergy at that time. We believe in treats but only rawhide free and dental bones. Please bring your own food and treats and let me know if you prefer not to share our treats. We also have 2 cats that are used to dogs and in fact think that each dog is their mommy since we got them as kittens and have an attachment to their respective dog mommy. You will even find cats and dogs snuggling together on the bed. Or Moose playing with Dottie in his tunnel. I have had animals with special needs from a diabetic cat that I gave insulin injections to treating animals with special needs. I live right down the street from a great dog park here in belton. We would love to take any new friends to visit. Please let me know if you prefer them not to go to the dog park and we can stay here and play. We have a fenced back yard but one side is only 4 ft. I work from home as a director so I have a very flexible schedule. My son does play competitive soccer so sometimes weekends have us at soccer field for about 2 hours. I have a fenced yard 3 sides are 6 foot privacy and one has a 4 foot chain link. I follow my client's care directions in their homes.

Our cats are out at all times and have no trouble with the dogs.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who understands how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Dogs have always been part of my family, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I work from home full-time, which means your pup will have plenty of attention, supervision, companionship, and outdoor breaks throughout the day — not long stretches alone. My home is in a quiet rural town with a securely fenced yard where dogs can safely explore, play, and relax. I love getting to know each dog’s personality, routines, and comfort needs so they feel right at home here. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers naps and cuddles, I’ll make sure they receive patient, loving care and lots of affection. I know leaving your pet with someone else requires trust, and I’ll do everything I can to give you peace of mind with updates, photos, and dependable communication during their stay. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family member! Pet care is a natural part of my daily life because I work from home and have been a lifelong dog owner. Pets get plenty of attention, outdoor time, playtime in my fenced yard, regular potty breaks, and lots of affection throughout the day. Because I’m home most of the time, dogs are rarely left alone and can enjoy a calm, comfortable environment where they’re treated like part of the family. I provide dogs a safe, secure place to be themselves with personal attention and mindful consideration of their needs. Because I have dogs of my own, any visiting dog will have playmates and socialization throughout their stay.
About: I’ve been around pets for as long as I can remember. We cared for multiple dogs and cats as I was growing up so I have a lot of experience. I currently have an Alaskan malamute and two kitties that I’ve raised since they were only weeks old so I have experience with puppies and kittens. I am currently between jobs so I have plenty of time to care for your pet :). I am available any day of the week and have some availability on select holidays as well. I have a lot of space for your pet to romp around! I have a crate available as well in case it’s necessary. I have two kitties and a dog of my own so your pet will never be lonely!

About: I worked at Summit Pet Care for four years. I worked in the daycare, front desk, and kennels department. I have made valuable relationships with several clients. For those clients I have pet sat for them while they have been out of town. I have also walked many of their pups during a busy for them. I work Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and the rest of the week make time to exercise my own dog. Along with getting online classes done for UCM.. I care for my pets by always getting them with a clam but happy energy. First thing I always do with any pup is take them outside making sure there are no accidents in the home. If I am just meeting the pup I always allow them time to get used to me and make sure I am a loving person.
About: I have a genuine love for animals and take great pride in providing reliable, caring pet-sitting services. Having grown up on a farm, I gained hands-on experience with a wide range of animals, from household pets to livestock. This background has taught me responsibility, patience, and how to care for animals of all kinds. I treat every pet as if it were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I attend school online, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This allows me to travel for pet-sitting jobs and even stay overnight when needed, as long as there’s Wi-Fi so I can keep up with my classes. Since I’m currently applying for more jobs, my availability is open and adaptable, making it easy for me to provide consistent, reliable care for pets whenever I’m needed. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routines as closely as possible so the pets feel comfortable and secure. I provide regular feeding, fresh water, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also take time to clean up after them, whether that’s refreshing litter boxes, wiping paws, or tidying up their spaces. If I’m staying overnight, I make sure the home stays neat and the pets get extra attention and companionship. My goal is always to create a safe, calm, and loving environment while keeping the owner’s home just as they left it.

“Kristy was absolutely wonderful with our amstaff/lab mix, Coltrane. From the very beginning, she was incredibly communicative, responsive, and thoughtful. She sent us lots of photos and updates throughout his stay, and it was obvious from every picture that Coltrane was happy, relaxed, and genuinely enjoying himself with Kristy and her family. One of the things we appreciated most was seeing Coltrane interacting so naturally and comfortably in their home environment. It gave us complete peace of mind knowing he was being treated like part of the family instead of just being “watched.” Kristy clearly loves dogs and pays close attention to their comfort and well-being. We would absolutely trust her with Coltrane again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and communicative sitter.”
“Maura and her husband are super friendly and very knowledgeable when it comes to dogs. My two large dogs appeared to be well taken care of. Maura communicated well with updates and photos. I highly recommend her.”
“Our dog was taken good care of by Morgan. We were highly satisfied, esp it was our first time leaving our dog with someone else. We will definately take our dog back to her again anytime we need help. May God bless the works of her hands.”
“I was nervous about leaving our dog for a 9-day stay, when the most we had ever been away from her was for 3 days. But Jenn took wonderful care of our dog, sent daily pictures and updates, and I soon realized our dog was having a vacation of her own. From other dogs to play with, a fenced backyard and doggy door, our dog lived her best life. Thanks Jenn for taking excellent care of Ellie!”
“So happy with Alesha! Friendly, positive, good communication, and knew the right questions to ask for a safe and happy stay for both my dog and her home and family. We couldn’t be happier! We’ll definitely be booking with her again for future trips. :)”
“Jenny took great care of our dog. She gave us daily updates and photos on how she was doing which we greatly appreciated. Our dog loved spending time there and playing with Jenny’s dog!”
“Chloe was awesome with my pup Angus. She provided excellent services and communication throughout the sitting period. I will definitely be using her for future sittings! Thank you Chloe!”
“I was so nervous to leave our overly hyper-active puppy with Susan; she is wild and still in the process of learning house behavior. Susan was more than accommodating and so patient with our Daisy dog! She was wonderful! Constant pictures and updates of Daisy; always keeping us in the loop and updated on her activities. I would HIGHLY recommend Susan for dog sitting, she was incredible with our puppy and went out of her way with her! Will be using again!”
“Kaitie was so welcoming to my dog and accommodating! My pup came back happy and worn out (haha thankfully). I absolutely recommend her and will to any of my friends who need pet sitting. Thank you Kaitie!”
About: We are a loving family with various animal experience. My husband has owned cattle and horses and I have owned a horse along with several family dogs. We house sat for an elderly dog earlier this year and would love to look after yours. We did a lot of training with our heeler and are familiar with training collars. On the days your pet is here we will be here to love on and let out as needed. On the occasion we need to leave the house we ask to either have your pet in the kitchen or crated. We have a fenced in yard, an energetic heeler, new lab puppy and 2 kiddos to love and play with your pet. If I'm coming to your house there's the chance I'll have my kiddos with me to walk and play.
“They did an amazing job with Nymeria. She was slow to warm up at first, but they kept me updated and reassured me that she was starting to come out of her shell and get comfortable. The communication they provided was very much appreciated and made me feel so much more comfortable knowing she was in a safe and loving environment. She is back home and sleeping soundly now, and I know she had a great time and received plenty of care and attention. It was such a relief knowing she was in good hands and not sitting in a cold kennel without much human interaction. I truly appreciated the care, patience, and communication throughout her stay. I will absolutely be using their services again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets.”
About: I have had dogs in my home since I was 5 years old. I love all types of dogs, and people have always called me the animal whisperer. I love and care about all animals and relish the opportunity to spoil your furry family member while you're away! I've cared for dogs of all sizes and ages, and I also have 10 years of experience as a vet tech, so I can handle anything from the day-to-day care of your pet to high-stress situations that require additional knowledge and attention. I work a fully remote job and I'm home all the time. I'm happy to work with you on a unique boarding schedule that works for you. Vacations are stressful enough, and I understand that plans change, so I'm happy to accommodate your schedule to the best of my ability. Please don't hesitate to reach out with additional questions about scheduling! I have one dog of my own and she loves to make new friends! I enjoy having companions for her in the house because they wear her out! She will be thrilled to keep your fur baby company and give them a fantastic vacation while you're enjoying your time away. I can accommodate a crate for your dog for meal times, sleeping, or training if needed. Please don't hesitate to reach out with additional questions about care!
About: I’ve been around working dogs most of my life, breeding and raising high-drive dogs and learning how to properly handle different personalities and temperaments. I’ve worked with trainers across the country and have experience with obedience, structure, play, confidence building, and understanding dogs on more than just a basic level. Whether it’s a high-energy working dog or a laid-back family pet, I focus on making dogs feel comfortable, exercised, and cared for like they’re my own. I work with dogs full-time, so your dog will get plenty of attention, structure, and hands-on care throughout the day — not just quick check-ins. I have crates available in multiple sizes, four outdoor runs, and a fully fenced yard to give dogs plenty of safe space and exercise. I also have a very social, well-mannered dog that can interact and play with client dogs if wanted. If preferred, I can also easily keep dogs completely separate thanks to how my setup is designed — whatever makes the owner most comfortable.
