“Brooke was so good with our pup. She even helped him get potty trained while we were on vacation. She sent us videos, pictures, daily updates and even tips on training our dog. She’s very responsive and trustworthy. We didn’t worry at all and knew our puppy was in great hands! I cannot recommend her enough for your dog sitting needs.”
“Dylan was great with my dog! Drop off and pick up was super easy, communication was fast, and Dylan helped us get to know Rover procedures since it was our first time. Scout got to socialize with other dogs and really seems to have had a good experience.”
“Ashleigh was great with all aspects of our dog's stay. Great communication before and during the stay along with pictures of how our dog was doing. Lucy was comfortable with Ashleigh and her home, and we look forward to using her again!”
“This was Kaycee’s 2nd stay with Amanda and her family, and it was just as wonderful as the first! 🐾 Amanda kept me updated with photos, videos and messages, and it was clear Kaycee felt right at home. She had plenty of playtime, attention, and love — I couldn’t ask for better care. Highly recommend!”
“Gretchen was great! She communicated with me daily and sent pics of my baby. It was my first time using Rover and I have a small dog (10 lbs) who is used to being at home with me. It was nice to know my fur baby was with other small dogs and the daily updates from Gretchen were comforting. I would recommend Gretchen, especially if you have a small dog. I will use her again.”
“Ashley was just absolutely amazing! If I could give her 10 stars, I 100% would! She really went above and beyond taking care of our girl! We really enjoyed the consistent check-ins and pictures and appreciate the extra time she took to let us know how Harley was doing while we were away! I was so thrilled that she actually seemed to take the time to get to know our fur baby and treated her like one of her own! This was our first time boarding Harley, but Ashley made it so smooth and stress-free! Would definitely recommend and will be booking with her again in the future!”
“Olivia was the perfect person for my senior dog! She knew I was nervous about leaving him and she sent pictures every day of our trip! He did so well and I will definitely be using her again!”
“Emma was fantastic with our pups! She sent us lots of “pupdates” with pics. Took the girls on several walks, on outings to the park and even tried to teach them tricks. She went above and beyond with everything. I couldn’t have asked for a better first time Rover experience.”
“Raelynn was the sweetest and took excellent care of our two senior rottweilers. We were sent an update daily along with pics and could tell they were having a good time with her. Would recommend again and again!”
“Kim was AMAZING! She took care of our dog Peppers in her home for several days and sent daily pictures and updates, which we SO appreciated! She was also very flexible and accommodating with our schedule as we were traveling. Our dog enjoyed playing with her dog and seemed to have a very fun time with personal attention while he was there. He came home very happy and tired! When my husband picked up our dog she had packed his things nicely and even gave us a treat bag and card. We are so thankful to have found her and look forward to booking with her again!”
“Sydney and her husband are amazing! They provided great updates while my dog was with them and were so flexible and understanding when I accidentally booked wrong, and they let my dog stay another night! I’m so grateful to them!”
“Mallory is amazing! She provides updates, makes sure she covers all the basics and questions and is so friendly! Maverick had so much fun and we will definitely be using her again in the future!😊”
“Kaitlin was amazing with my little Ricky. This was the first time I had boarded him in the 10 years I’ve had him, so I was worried about leaving him. She treated him like he was hers, and kept me informed with pictures and messages about how he was doing. I think he loved her too! She was great!”
“Mikala was amazing and anytime I need an overnight sitter she is the first person I will call on. My Gypsy was so taken care of over the thanksgiving holiday. I received regular pictures and updates with a smiling puppy with her new friends. A special thanks to Mikala and her husband for helping me with our puppy drop off as I was hospitalized a few hours after our meet and greet and wasn’t able to meet personally. That meant so much to me that these sweet people went out of their way to help me. I would absolutely recommend Mikala for any service with Rover. The apitamy of a puppy mom and no doubt your fur babies will be in good hands with Mikala.”
“We had a wonderful boarding experience with Lael. Communication was great, with just the right amount of pictures, videos, and check-ins. She truly treated our dog, Maddie, like one of the family. We could tell Maddie was happy and well cared for while she was there, which gave us so much peace of mind. Maddie loved playing outside with her 2 dogs! We would definitely book with her again!”
“Emily was a fantastic sitter for our pup. She kept us updated daily and I knew he was well looked after and that he was in great hands during his stay. She even sent him home with a little treat baggie! I would definitely book Emily again if I'm traveling back through the area.”

“My 2 cats were well taken care of by Paige! She stayed with them while they ate both times of day! She took care of cleaning up after them with a hair ball or two and kept up with their litter boxes! Lots of pics and updates!!”
“This was our third time having Sydney and Andrew drop in to check on our cat Felicia. They always go above and beyond to make sure she is doing well. The communication we receive, while we are away, is so reassuring. And she gets to remain in the comfort of her home. If you are trying to decide between a few sitters, pick Sydney and Andrew! They are the best!”
“Lisa is an outstanding pet sitter. She showered my elderly cat with attention and spent extra time comforting and playing with him. Lisa gave my cat multiple medications for his advanced age health conditions without any issues. I wholeheartedly recommend Lisa for your pet sitting needs!”

“Kyle is the perfect match for my Cane Corso. She’s a strong guardian breed and Kyle was knowledgeable throughout the process of meeting her to ensure a safe interaction. He is patient and kind. She looooooves him. I appreciate his thoroughness in ensuring her needs are met, Makes this dog mom’s heart smile to know she has a good caregiver.”
About: I volunteered with Patriot Paws of Aggieland where I helped to raise and train service dogs for veterans at no cost to those veterans! I have also worked at Sit Means Sit Dog Training. I am very well experienced with dogs! I work everyday but am free after and before work!! I'm excited to meet your babies! On weekends I can be flexible pending work. I do have my own fur babies to take care of but am capable of doing both! I make sure to not let the animals out of my sight for more than 2 minutes! I love to play with them or just lay around depending on what the animal prefers!
About: In addition to dogs, I also provide attentive and gentle care for cats. I understand that cats have their own unique personalities and preferences, and I respect their space while building trust at their pace. Whether your cat loves to play, cuddle, or simply have a calm, consistent presence, I make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and stress-free. I also keep litter boxes clean, follow feeding routines closely, and provide updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
“Meryk did a great job making sure Big Boy was happy and cared for while I was at work. He even stayed a few extra minutes extra to play with the cat wand and sent pictures! 10/10 will hire again.”
“I love the pictures and timely visits to my cats while away for christmas. She made sure they were fed and had clean water and took time to play with them even for a few minutes. This was beyond what we expected. I will hire her again if she is available when we go out of town again.”
“Our cat-kids love Breelyn! And we always appreciate Breelyn’s professionalism, punctuality, and friendliness! It’s nice to have someone we can trust to take care of them!”
About: My experience comes from helping others with house sitting and drop ins. I can assist with daily feeding(s), overnight care, and play time. I love animals and I will make sure they’re comfortable and cared for.

“Megan and Patrick did great with my cats! They were well fed and comfortable when I got home. I got picture updates of each cat every time they stopped by. They were also quick to respond to any messages.”
“Mickayla is absolutely fantastic. She clearly takes her responsibility very seriously. From the very first meeting to get the low down before her first care day through the actual visits while we were gone, Mickayla was very communicative and kept us in the loop with all pet related goings on. We received lots of fabulous pictures of our kitties and the one kitty that is the most hesitant around new people was coming all the way up to Mickayla for pets on their first meet. Animals know good people! Best of all, we had complete peace of mind while away from our pets. I highly recommend Mickayla!”
About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover and have owned my dog since he was a puppy, so I understand the patience, care, and attention dogs need at every stage. I’ve also helped train both my own dog and dogs for neighbors, which has given me experience with different personalities, routines, and behaviors. I’ll treat your pets like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away!

I’m available most weekdays and weekends and can work with your pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always make sure pets feel secure, loved, and well cared for in both my home and yours. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, walks, and any special instructions to create a safe and trusting environment.
About: know that every cat has its own personality, routine, and comfort level. My goal is to keep your cat’s routine as consistent and stress-free as possible while you’re away by following your instructions carefully and providing patient, attentive care. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to following your care instructions exactly as you provide them. Whether it’s feeding, refreshing water, scooping litter boxes, playtime, brushing, administering simple medications (if needed), or simply providing quiet companionship, I’ll make sure your cat receives the care and attention they deserve. You’ll receive regular photo updates and messages so you can relax knowing your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own.

About: I have always had pets (dogs mostly) and love them! I will love your babies as if they were my own! I hope you pick me! I have recently retired and am looking for something gratifying to help other Dog owners with the care of their pet! I know how stressful it can be when you have to leave your pet for any length of time and would love to relieve that stress for you! 😊 I have a fenced in yard with a senior dog, Bella. She is such a great dog and is so aloof, like nothing bothers her! I am unable to board certain breeds due to home insurance restrictions and my senior dog so may not be able to accept every request, however, I haven’t turned one down yet!
“Ashleigh was great with our 2 doggies! We can tell she has a very tender heart for animals. She kept us informed all during their stay and even sent pictures. We highly recommend her! Jay & Carol M”
“Brooke took wonderful care of Foster. We need a place for a few hours while we had a dog free activity. He came back sassy and happy. We will see her again when we are in the area.”
“Mickayla was amazing with my dog. She was very accommodating to my drop off and pick up times, sent many photos of my dog having a fantastic time and was wonderful to communicate with. Would recommend to anyone!”
“Sydney is great! I needed a sitter for my new puppy while I’m at work while she gets adjusted, and Sydney has been amazing. Love that my dog gets a chance to socialize with new people, visit with some cats, and get tired out and sleep through the night. Sydney has been a great communicator and very easy to get ahold of, with lots of flexibility with my schedule. Would absolutely recommend her!”
“Ashley's simply the best. You know someone knows dogs well when the dogs are happy and excited to go visit her. I can't say enough about how much thought and care she puts into everything her and her family do to help others out and their fur babies.”
About: I have owned dogs my entire life and trained them myself. Our home has also housed rescues including litters, pregnant, mamas, senior dogs, and everything in between for the last nine years. We truly thrive on helping animals feel safe in our space. We are a work from home family so we have very flexible schedules, which would allow us to give your pet our full attention for the duration of their stay. We have an oversized fenced in yard for our Personal dogs to enjoy via doggy door anytime they’d like. Our pets include one lemon beagle named Finn and a standard Aussie-Doodle named Niko.
“Jackie and Michael were so great with my high maintenance young doberman! Although we live hours away, I would make the drive and use them again in a heartbeat. I’ve never seen my dog so at home with someone else. I highly recommend them!”
“Gretchen took in our Xena for daycare at the last minute - for which we were very grateful! She and her husband were great - very communicative and kind. Xena was in good hands and had a good time with their dogs. Highly recommend!”
“Miss Heather was so awesome! She got my nervous Brandy to eat and played ball with her, which made Brandy feel right at home. I loved the pics she sent when I asked how Brandy was doing, and she got back to me right away. I will definitely ask for her again when I come through town!”
About: I have taken care of pets for over 33 years ever since getting my first dog at 7 years old. I’ve had dogs of all sizes and shapes including a Lhasa Apso, King Charles Spaniel, Golden Retrievers, Pitbull, Shihpoo, and Heeler/Daschund mix. They’ve ranged in ages from 8 week old puppy to 5 year old rescue when I brought them home and I nursed many through their senior years. Of course I love all pets so I’ve also had Bunnies, Fish, Cats, hermit crabs, frogs, and more. I love them all! Currently in my home I have a 1 year old Shihpoo name Mocha and a 5 year old Heeler/Dauschund mix named Luna. I promise to take care of your fur babies just as if they were mine! I am a single mother with lots of time on my hands to love on pets. I have a daughter in Junior High and a son in High School so I do run them back and forth to their activities but otherwise I’m ready to spend time with the fur babies. I have a fenced in backyard in a quiet neighborhood. I have a couple big trees for shade while pets are playing outdoors and a covered back porch for relaxing.
“Cortney was very friendly, and she took great care of our two energetic dogs! Her place is clean and she was able to care for multiple dogs very well. She communicated well and promptly returned messages and also sent multiple pictures and a video. Our pups were happy and relaxed when we picked them up.”
“Took elphie in super last minute and saved the day. Was so kind and loving to her and made me feel comfortable leaving her. She sent lots of photos and was very obviously enjoying the presence of my dog, which gives any dog mom peace of mind!”
About: With five years of pet-sitting experience and 18 years caring for my own dog, I offer dependable, respectful in-home care.

I follow your pet’s routine exactly and keep your home secure while you’re away. Clear communication, safety-first habits, and gentle handling are my priorities. Your pets stay comfortable, your home stays respected.

“I had a knee replacement and was unable to walk my dog. Brandi stepped right in and did a great job, taking care of my dog like he is her own. Friendly, personable, and reliable. Highly recommended!”
About: I've grown up with dogs all my life. I currently have one dog who I rescued, taken care of and trained into a well behaved Pup. I work weekends so I also rely on someone to help let her out for potty breaks. Looking to give back and help others. I work full time on the weekends and so I am fully open to help you with your pup Monday-Thursday most times of the day. I have a fenced in yard to keep your pup safe but give them space to run and play. I have 1 dog who loves to play with other pups. I can also crate if needed.
“Regina has been incredible. As our dog’s first walker, she worked with a very anxious pup who struggled with other dogs, people, and even environmental stimuli like leaves. Since Regina began walking her, we’ve seen significant progress—our dog is now more confident, enjoys her walks, and is more comfortable sharing space with others. We truly appreciate Regina’s patience and consistency.”

Our schedules work nicely together where if your pets are alone, it's for a very short period of time.

Communication was excellent, and it was clear my dog was well cared for and happy. I would absolutely book with her again!”
About: When I was in highschool I would watch and take the neighbors dogs on walks! I also have always had alot of dogs to care for growing up.

About: I love animals and have two dogs of my own, Honey & Daisy. Honey is a rescue Golden Retriever mix and Daisy is a lab mix. I have a house with a huge fenced in backyard. My dogs are very friendly and love to play with new dogs! I am very responsible, trustworthy and reliable. I have always grown up around dogs so I am experienced with taking care of them. I love seeing new dogs and that is what has interested me in being a dog sitter/walker. I have a special love for animals and I will treat every animal as my own and take very good care of them. I am currently available on Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday during the summer while my daughter is at school. If needed for other days, my daughter (1 year old) will more than likely be with me so please let me know if that is an issue. I have a fenced in backyard, with two friendly dogs ready to make some new friends. Your furry friend will always be in good hands.
About: I have grown up with a variety of pets and have come to consider them all a part of the family. From Geckos to Hermits, Fish to Frogs, and Cats to Dogs, I've housed a variety and have loved them all to the core! I am particularly familiar with Medium sized dogs, but I am no stranger to the big, the bad, or the snugly. For cats, I can be a bit squeamish when it comes to litter, but that is nothing a mask or a nose clip won't fix! As a full time college student, online classes allow my schedule to be very flexible. My grades are important, but nothing motivates me more than a happy pet and a satisfied customer! As someone who understands that home is a place to escape the daily riff raff, I am willing to keep visits as quick and simple as possible or as long and engaging as preferred. A meet and greet is encouraged so I can better understand the needs of your pet and so that the pet and I can become familiar.
About: Growing up, my family has always had animals. Dogs, cats, lizards, bunnies, guinea pigs... I love animals and making sure they are taken care of.

I only doordash as my income right now so anytime you need me I will be available. I have no restrictions when it comes to pets, just let me know anything to look out for when caring for them.

About: For over 10 years, I’ve been dedicated to caring for all types of cats and dogs, providing reliable and loving service to my family and neighbors. From playful puppies to calm senior cats, I’ve gained experience with pets of all breeds, sizes and personalities. My commitment to their well-being ensures they receive the best care, whether it’s feeding, walking, or simply offering companionship. I’ve built strong relationships with both pets and their owners, always prioritizing safety and happiness. I am very responsive and try to maintain clear, consistent communication. My availability is kept up to date on my calendar, and I am flexible throughout the day depending on bookings. I can come over for a quick feeding or to spend several hours with your pets, depending on what will benefit them the most. I work remotely, which allows me a lot of flexibility to provide care and attention throughout the day. On rare occasions, I may travel out of town, but I update my calendar well in advance to reflect any changes. I’m always open to coordinating schedules and finding arrangements that work well for both the pet owner and the pets. I’m looking forward to the opportunity to help and provide reliable care! I follow a consistent routine to make sure pets feel comfortable and well cared for. In my own home, my dogs are let out in the morning, midday, and evening, along with daily walks to keep them active and engaged. They are seniors, so I’m experienced with slower paced care and administering medication on a strict schedule, including daily medication for heart disease. I’ve also cared for high energy dogs and puppies! I enjoy keeping them active through walks and play, while always adjusting to their individual needs and energy levels. With cats, I focus on creating a calm, lower stress environments so they can feel safe and build trust at their own pace. I stay on top of litter box cleanliness and make sure they get regular playtime and attention based on their personality. I aim to provide consistent and attentive care for all the animals I take care of!
“Olivia is the sweetest! She is very responsive, sent me plenty of photos during the walks and made sure to keep me updated on everything that was happening! I will be using her in the future and would definitely recommend her to others!”

“Raelynn was the sweetest and took excellent care of our two senior rottweilers. We were sent an update daily along with pics and could tell they were having a good time with her. Would recommend again and again!”

“Mallory is amazing! She provides updates, makes sure she covers all the basics and questions and is so friendly! Maverick had so much fun and we will definitely be using her again in the future!😊”
“Kaitlin was amazing with my little Ricky. This was the first time I had boarded him in the 10 years I’ve had him, so I was worried about leaving him. She treated him like he was hers, and kept me informed with pictures and messages about how he was doing. I think he loved her too! She was great!”
“Mikala was amazing and anytime I need an overnight sitter she is the first person I will call on. My Gypsy was so taken care of over the thanksgiving holiday. I received regular pictures and updates with a smiling puppy with her new friends. A special thanks to Mikala and her husband for helping me with our puppy drop off as I was hospitalized a few hours after our meet and greet and wasn’t able to meet personally. That meant so much to me that these sweet people went out of their way to help me. I would absolutely recommend Mikala for any service with Rover. The apitamy of a puppy mom and no doubt your fur babies will be in good hands with Mikala.”
“We had a wonderful boarding experience with Lael. Communication was great, with just the right amount of pictures, videos, and check-ins. She truly treated our dog, Maddie, like one of the family. We could tell Maddie was happy and well cared for while she was there, which gave us so much peace of mind. Maddie loved playing outside with her 2 dogs! We would definitely book with her again!”
“Deserae was an awesome dog sitter for Wesley! She sent me pictures throughout the stay - which was so nice! It’s easy to tell that she has a huge heart for animals because she was really great to mine. We will definitely be using her again!! Thanks Deserae!”
“Mickayla is awesome! I knew from the time we met that we are in good hands! This was the first time I have left her with someone, I could not be more pleased! I loved the pictures she took and told me about Gracie’s day. I can tell she loves animals, and I am so thankful and will definitely pick her when I need someone to care for my pup.”
“Sabrina is fabulous! We were updated regularly on how our dog was doing while we were away, which I SO appreciated! Her attention to our "second child" allowed us to enjoy our vacation even more! We will for sure use her again and HIGHLY recommend!”
About: I have taken care of pets for over 33 years ever since getting my first dog at 7 years old. I’ve had dogs of all sizes and shapes including a Lhasa Apso, King Charles Spaniel, Golden Retrievers, Pitbull, Shihpoo, and Heeler/Daschund mix. They’ve ranged in ages from 8 week old puppy to 5 year old rescue when I brought them home and I nursed many through their senior years. Of course I love all pets so I’ve also had Bunnies, Fish, Cats, hermit crabs, frogs, and more. I love them all! Currently in my home I have a 1 year old Shihpoo name Mocha and a 5 year old Heeler/Dauschund mix named Luna. I promise to take care of your fur babies just as if they were mine! I am a single mother with lots of time on my hands to love on pets. I have a daughter in Junior High and a son in High School so I do run them back and forth to their activities but otherwise I’m ready to spend time with the fur babies. I have a fenced in backyard in a quiet neighborhood. I have a couple big trees for shade while pets are playing outdoors and a covered back porch for relaxing.
“Ashley was the best find for us and our dog. She has a great structure at her place, clearly experienced and was very understanding of our dog’s behavior challenges. I am very self conscious about our dog’s reactivity and we are so glad to have found someone we can trust to handle our very energetic and jumper pup, she is our top choice from now on.”
About: I’ve taken care of many kinds of dogs, cats, and horses from a young age. I also have experience in dog grooming, ranging from small to large dogs. I am fluent in American Sign Language. I am flexible as I work from home. I normally check pets at least two times a day, but more check in times are available upon request. I have a friendly dog who loves to play and make new friends. He will be very helpful in helping young dogs learn how to socialize.
