“Thank you Todd and Jackie for taking such wonderful care of Lucky, Peanut, and Milo while we were away. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in your kind, capable hands—especially with Milo still adjusting to his new home. Your gentle approach and attention to detail, from feeding to playtime, made all the difference. We loved the updates and photos—it was clear they felt safe, loved, and happy. We’re so grateful for the care you gave. We’d love to have you watch our furry crew again!”
“Thank you so much for hosting our little Duke this weekend! Great service, we were greeted kindly at drop off. The updates keep my family with peace of mind while we were away from our fur baby! Would definitely recommend Hotel for Dogs!”
“Andrea was wonderful and Quigley was right at home quickly. Andrea checked in occasionally to reassure us our pup was all good but I knew he was in great hands and didn’t have to worry about him!”
“Jamelah was patient with us and our Belgium Sheppard. This was our first time using Rover with this pet. By the time we returned, she had our guard dog playing with her pet. We were thrilled. I appreciate her flexibility with each pet. She didnt require a crate, and allowed our dog to sleep on a rug by the bed. Exactly like she sleeps at home. We received pics and she responded right away to needy dog parents :). We will aways use Jamelah if she is available.”
“5 stars. Responded very quick, very nice and attentive, took amazing care of my 8month old puppy and my 10 year old lab they had a back yard to play in and bone marrow for lunch and he sent me multiple videos. 10/10 would recommend to anyone”
“Our first time boarding with Dustin, and it was great! They’re super attentive to your dog’s needs and very hands on with care. Dustin really treats your dog like his own! Couldn’t have asked for a better Rover experience”
“Jeannette is fantastic! She is incredibly kind and patient with Ace. Her dog Theo is a sweetheart and Ace loves playing with him! Ace always comes back home very happy. It is very evident he is loved and taken care of!”
“Celeste was very friendly and responsive when wanting an update on how Coco was doing. She was very thorough with questions about Coco's eating schedule, walking habits, and the little details on how she acts. She took her on walks plenty of walks. Also, can't thank her enough, she allowed me to extend Coco stay for an extra day due to my brother wanting to stay out of town longer.”
“Amazing sitter, My Zoey is very needy. Her and her family welcomed my baby with open arms. I received beautiful pictures daily and of her walks. Made my vacation so much easier to enjoy. Will certainly use her again.”

About: With over 20 years of experience caring for dogs, I bring more than just pet sitting—I bring genuine love, patience, and a deep understanding of canine behavior. Dogs in my care enjoy a safe, comfortable, home-like environment where they can relax, play, and feel like part of the family. I specialize in dog training and behavior and have experience raising puppies, caring for senior dogs, and working with trained service dogs. I understand that every dog has different needs, routines, personalities, and comfort levels. Your peace of mind matters too. I provide regular photo updates, check-in calls, and FaceTime when requested, so you can see your dog, stay connected, and feel confident they’re being well cared for while you’re away. My goal is simple: treat your dog like family and give you the peace of mind that they’re in good hands. As a retired Army veteran who works from home, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have the flexibility to give pets consistent attention throughout the day rather than leaving them alone for long periods. My routine includes regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, training, and plenty of companionship. I also make time to monitor each dog’s behavior and comfort level, especially with puppies, seniors, and dogs with specific routines or needs. Because I work from home, I’m able to provide a calm, home-like environment with frequent supervision and individualized care. I treat every dog in my home like family and make their safety, comfort, and happiness a priority. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, dog-friendly home environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. Dogs receive plenty of supervision, attention, playtime, walks, and affection throughout the day rather than being left alone for extended periods. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications when appropriate, exercise, training, and special care instructions. I’m especially comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with specific behavioral or training needs. I also understand how important it is for owners to feel connected while they’re away. I provide regular photo updates and am happy to offer check-in calls or FaceTime so you can see how your pet is doing. Whether your pet stays in my home or I care for them in yours, my goal is to create a safe, respectful, and stress-free experience for both you and your pet.
About: As a former veterinary clinic employee, I've developed a deep understanding of canine behavior, health, and well-being. My extensive knowledge allows me to provide personalized care tailored to your pet's unique needs. With my three lovable dogs of my own, I'm a seasoned "fur parent" who understands the importance of creating a loving, safe, and stimulating environment. My home dog park, where dogs can socialize, exercise, and play off-leash, is a unique feature that sets me apart from other sitters. Here, your furry friend will enjoy the freedom of playing with friends while you're away, knowing they're in good hands. My passion for dogs, combined with my professional experience and facilities, make me the perfect sitter for your beloved companion. I understand the importance of flexibility and reliability when it comes to pet care. My schedule allows me to accommodate a range of pet care needs, from daily visits to overnight or multi-day stays. I can visit your furry friend during the day, ensuring they receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need while also providing peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. We are a family-based boarding home, so your pet will receive plenty of love and attention throughout their stay. My husband works from home, which allows for extra supervision and care during the day, and my daughter also has experience with pet care and pet sitting. Together, we create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every pet in our care. Whether you’re away for a few hours, a full day, or several days, I’ll make sure your pet receives the care, comfort, and companionship they deserve. My flexible schedule allows me to adjust to your unique needs so you can feel confident that your pet will be well cared for like part of the family. Welcome to my home, where your furry friend will receive the ultimate pampering experience! You're welcome to bring their own bed to sleep in, or they can choose from one of my beds. But it's not just about sleeping - my in-home dog park is the real showstopper! This spacious yard is designed for pets to run wild, play fetch, and make new friends. And for those who love water, they can splash around in my inground pool. The yard is fully fenced and secure, so you can rest assured that your pet will be safe and happy. My home is a haven for pets, and I'm confident that they'll feel right at home.
“Britney watched my 2 schnauzer puppies for 5 days. She offered a meet and greet beforehand which was a kind gesture. My puppies were not yet completely potty trained so I knew they would be a handful. I was a little nervous but she reassured me that they would be fine. She communicated with me daily. Ioriginally booked a late pickup but Our flight was late so I wasn't able to pick that evening. Britney kindly agreed to pick up the next morning. I won't hesitate to use her again.”
“Kaitlyn did a fantastic job! I will not hesitate to use her again next time we go out of town and highly recommend her! My 15 lb dachshund mix had a great time, was treated like a princess, and enjoyed playing with her two dogs of similar size...she was sad to leave her new friends!”
About: I am a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet sitter who is new to Rover but not new to caring for dogs. I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. I also have experience administering medications and am comfortable following detailed feeding, medication, and care routines. My husband and I live on a farm with our 4-year-old female Standard Poodle, Maggie. She is friendly, well trained, and enjoys having other dogs around. Although our yard is not fenced, all dogs are closely supervised outdoors and taken on multiple leashed walks each day. Our property offers plenty of space for safe walks, exploring, and sniffing. I recently completed my PhD at Baylor University and bring responsibility, attention to detail, and reliability to everything I do. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I will treat your dog like part of our family while keeping you updated throughout their stay. I have cared for pets for friends, family, and others since high school, with more regular pet-sitting experience in recent years. Please note that dogs staying in our home must be comfortable using stairs. I work from home most days, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I am available throughout the day for regular potty breaks, companionship, feeding, medication, and plenty of attention. I already follow a consistent routine with my Standard Poodle, Maggie, including multiple leashed walks each day. Because we live on a farm, visiting dogs also have plenty of opportunities to walk, explore, and sniff while remaining safely supervised. I live in a cozy studio apartment above the garage on our farm, so the indoor space is modest, but dogs have plenty of opportunities for supervised outdoor time, walks, and exploring around the property. I follow each pet’s usual feeding, walking, medication, and sleep routine as closely as possible. I also provide regular photos and updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

About: I have cared for pets and people for many years. I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits & chickens, and I dream of someday having my own homestead. I have years of experience as a care taker for children & the elderly, but if I'm being honest I much prefer the company of pets over people! I've fostered feral cats and rescued runaway dogs. There is something so pure about the love of an animal. I have a daughter (3 years old now) who loves animals so much and gets so excited every time she gets to meet a doggie or kitty, so she truly loves coming along with me for these jobs! My schedule is very flexible at this time: I'm available for daytime visits and overnight care to spend time with and love on your fur-babies! 😻 I have a great deal of respect when visiting others homes. I always take special care to leave it cleaner than I found it and tidy up any messes as needed. A clean home is a happy home! Bedding in the crate needs to be laundered or litter box needs to be cleaned out? No problem! I can also water plants, take in the mail, put trash cans out, pickup packages from the porch, load the dishwasher or whatever may be needed! I want to be of service to you and your pet as much as I can during my time in your home. References available upon request.

About: I grew up on a farm so we had all sorts of animals, big and small. We were in 4H as well as had multiple pets throughout childhood.

I create my own schedule so I'm available for drop ins during the week as well as weekends. Daily feedings or over nights are easy to accommodate. I have a fenced yard and a young large mixed breed who loves to play. We have plenty of room inside and outside the house.
About: I’ve taken care of animal almost my whole life. I’ve experienced situations others might not know how to handle. I have gone from grooming pets, walking around parks, following precise rules pet owners have left me, and allowing lots of playtime. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, chickens, horses, sheep’s, ducks, fishes, lobsters, and any animals you can imagine on a farm. I am a full time college student, but always make sure to fit the pets needs/schedule into mine. I will let any owner know if for some reason it will not fit into my schedule allowing them to look for someone else. Pet care becomes a natural part of me. It involves feeding, walking, playtime, and grooming, all of which I try to incorporate consistently throughout the day. Weekly tasks might include vet check-ups, cleaning pet areas, and providing extra care like nail trimming or deep cleaning their bedding. It’s about creating a balance where pet care feels like an enjoyable part of the day, not a chore. In my home, I ensure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and any stimulation they need. This includes regular feeding, daily walks, playtime, and grooming sessions. I also focus on maintaining a clean environment for allowing pets to feel clean and smell well.

“We have been using Victoria to watch our dogs while we are away and when we need afternoon walks. She is great with the dogs, always on time, and thoughtful (bringing in mail and putting out trash)!”
About: I have cared for pets and people for many years. I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits & chickens, and I dream of someday having my own homestead. I have years of experience as a care taker for children & the elderly, but if I'm being honest I much prefer the company of pets over people! I've fostered feral cats and rescued runaway dogs. There is something so pure about the love of an animal. I have a daughter (3 years old now) who loves animals so much and gets so excited every time she gets to meet a doggie or kitty, so she truly loves coming along with me for these jobs! My schedule is very flexible at this time: I'm available for daytime visits and overnight care to spend time with and love on your fur-babies! 😻 I have a great deal of respect when visiting others homes. I always take special care to leave it cleaner than I found it and tidy up any messes as needed. A clean home is a happy home! Bedding in the crate needs to be laundered or litter box needs to be cleaned out? No problem! I can also water plants, take in the mail, put trash cans out, pickup packages from the porch, load the dishwasher or whatever may be needed! I want to be of service to you and your pet as much as I can during my time in your home. References available upon request.

“Thank you Todd and Jackie for taking such wonderful care of Lucky, Peanut, and Milo while we were away. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in your kind, capable hands—especially with Milo still adjusting to his new home. Your gentle approach and attention to detail, from feeding to playtime, made all the difference. We loved the updates and photos—it was clear they felt safe, loved, and happy. We’re so grateful for the care you gave. We’d love to have you watch our furry crew again!”
“Andrea was wonderful and Quigley was right at home quickly. Andrea checked in occasionally to reassure us our pup was all good but I knew he was in great hands and didn’t have to worry about him!”
“Jamelah was patient with us and our Belgium Sheppard. This was our first time using Rover with this pet. By the time we returned, she had our guard dog playing with her pet. We were thrilled. I appreciate her flexibility with each pet. She didnt require a crate, and allowed our dog to sleep on a rug by the bed. Exactly like she sleeps at home. We received pics and she responded right away to needy dog parents :). We will aways use Jamelah if she is available.”

She was very thorough with questions about Coco's eating schedule, walking habits, and the little details on how she acts. She took her on walks plenty of walks. Also, can't thank her enough, she allowed me to extend Coco stay for an extra day due to my brother wanting to stay out of town longer.”

About: With over 20 years of experience caring for dogs, I bring more than just pet sitting—I bring genuine love, patience, and a deep understanding of canine behavior. Dogs in my care enjoy a safe, comfortable, home-like environment where they can relax, play, and feel like part of the family. I specialize in dog training and behavior and have experience raising puppies, caring for senior dogs, and working with trained service dogs. I understand that every dog has different needs, routines, personalities, and comfort levels. Your peace of mind matters too. I provide regular photo updates, check-in calls, and FaceTime when requested, so you can see your dog, stay connected, and feel confident they’re being well cared for while you’re away. My goal is simple: treat your dog like family and give you the peace of mind that they’re in good hands. As a retired Army veteran who works from home, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have the flexibility to give pets consistent attention throughout the day rather than leaving them alone for long periods. My routine includes regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, training, and plenty of companionship. I also make time to monitor each dog’s behavior and comfort level, especially with puppies, seniors, and dogs with specific routines or needs. Because I work from home, I’m able to provide a calm, home-like environment with frequent supervision and individualized care. I treat every dog in my home like family and make their safety, comfort, and happiness a priority. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, dog-friendly home environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. Dogs receive plenty of supervision, attention, playtime, walks, and affection throughout the day rather than being left alone for extended periods. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications when appropriate, exercise, training, and special care instructions. I’m especially comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with specific behavioral or training needs. I also understand how important it is for owners to feel connected while they’re away. I provide regular photo updates and am happy to offer check-in calls or FaceTime so you can see how your pet is doing. Whether your pet stays in my home or I care for them in yours, my goal is to create a safe, respectful, and stress-free experience for both you and your pet.
About: I am a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet sitter who is new to Rover but not new to caring for dogs. I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. I also have experience administering medications and am comfortable following detailed feeding, medication, and care routines. My husband and I live on a farm with our 4-year-old female Standard Poodle, Maggie. She is friendly, well trained, and enjoys having other dogs around. Although our yard is not fenced, all dogs are closely supervised outdoors and taken on multiple leashed walks each day. Our property offers plenty of space for safe walks, exploring, and sniffing. I recently completed my PhD at Baylor University and bring responsibility, attention to detail, and reliability to everything I do. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I will treat your dog like part of our family while keeping you updated throughout their stay. I have cared for pets for friends, family, and others since high school, with more regular pet-sitting experience in recent years. Please note that dogs staying in our home must be comfortable using stairs. I work from home most days, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I am available throughout the day for regular potty breaks, companionship, feeding, medication, and plenty of attention. I already follow a consistent routine with my Standard Poodle, Maggie, including multiple leashed walks each day. Because we live on a farm, visiting dogs also have plenty of opportunities to walk, explore, and sniff while remaining safely supervised. I live in a cozy studio apartment above the garage on our farm, so the indoor space is modest, but dogs have plenty of opportunities for supervised outdoor time, walks, and exploring around the property. I follow each pet’s usual feeding, walking, medication, and sleep routine as closely as possible. I also provide regular photos and updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
About: I have always had a special place in my heart for animals. It is our responsibility as humans to take the best care of them. Every dog is special and deserves to be attended to appropriately. I am a Waco local and student at MCC studying to become a teacher. I’m currently working part time most weekdays until 6 pm. I can take appointments starting at 6:30 which is perfect during this Texas heat. I wouldn’t mind doing later walks when the weather is cooler. I will always make sure your pet is healthy and happy! My goal is to take extraordinary care of your pet and make sure it has everything it needs

I’m currently working part-time on furthering my education online so I will be available to walk your fur babies Monday- Friday from 8:00am-2:00pm. I care for my own fur babies a tremendous amount and yours will be cared for the same. I am very much a giver, and they will receive happiness.
About: I have dog sat my whole life or lived with dogs. I love animals, especially dogs and I want to spend more time with some! I love taking my friend’s dogs on walks or just playing with them! I am willing to walk, play, bathe, feed, and cuddle your dog! I am free in the morning and evenings. Free most weekends! I work 8-5 but flexible to leave during the day if needed!

About: CPR Certified. I have worked with dogs for 15+ years. I am currently a professional canine behaviorist and trainer. I have been training for 4 years after attending Starmark Academy. I have worked in boarding/daycare facilities for 15 years. Luxury and plenty of attention is my specialty! I tried my hand at grooming but it wasn't my favorite. I do have different brushes for different coats so I am able to brush your pup. Hygiene is important! I have worked with hundreds of breeds of dogs along with special needs, seniors, and playful puppies as well. My days are nothing but dogs! I am home all the time. I wake up, let my dogs out, feed them, let them out again and then make sure they rest till their food digests. Then we have a 30-45 minute training session including play. They come inside and rest some more. I make pupsicles and let my dogs lick the spoon. We play some more. If there are no other dogs boarding with me, I love to take my dogs to the park, lake, or pet friendly store. It makes for excellent training, mental, and physical stimulation. We come home rest, eat, and the last few hours of the night they get their pupsicles and we go to bed. I have a fenced in backyard. If your dog can jump a 6 ft fence, I also have a 30ft and a 50ft long line to keep them on during outside time. This way they can still run around. I have 2 dogs myself and if your pup gets along with them they can play with 100% supervision from me, a certified professional trainer and behaviorist. If your dog isn't dog friendly, no problem! I do rotations with the dogs and if needed, will be walked through my house with a leash. Even if they are friendly, your dog still gets one on one time with me and time to take a break from my dogs. Your dog will always have a safe space, this is why I do require them to be kenneled in my house when I am gone or it's bedtime. It's their "bedroom," their space to decompress, and safety always comes first. For my senior dogs or dogs going through medical treatment, I do have a larger pen they can stay in if I have to leave the house to get groceries or do a private training session. I feed all dogs separately in their safe space and none of the dogs are allowed in each other's space. If you have two dogs, I do require them to be kenneled separately. They can be side by side but they must have their own kennel/crate.
