“Delaney did an excellent job caring for my dog Boots! He had the best time playing and going for walks. This was a great experience for Boots and I will definitely call on Delaney again!”

“Arianna is awesome. We've had a couple dozen different dog sitters in the several cities we've lived in and Arianna really stands out as especially caring, thoughtful and communicative. I think it was the first time our dog Piper hesitated about leaving to come home. haha. Anyway, highly recommend!”

“Great experience! My dogs were so happy after their stay and we were out. Got lots of playtime with other dogs. Frequent updates and sent lots authentic pictures.!! it was very kind and caring about my babies and they loved her!!!”

“Victoria took in Seymour on short notice over the 4th of July weekend which was a huge life saver. He had such a good time he didn’t even want to leave Victoria and Maverick!”

“Sarah is awesome!! Bandy has stayed with her three times now and has absolutely loved it. She always keeps me updated and sends photos and my dog always looks like he’s having fun. Whenever we pick him up he is so happy and tired from all the play and walks. She has a great routine and takes such good care of him. No anxiety or worries at all when leaving him. 100% Recommend!”

“Jennifer was amazing with my dog! As was her whole family! Harley can be very shy and alittle feisty sometimes towards people she doesn’t know but the moment I brought her over she was so comfortable with Jennifer and that’s a huge positive when your dog is automatically comfortable with someone also imo! Jennifer updated us daily with texts or pics and the whole experience was just a pleasure overall!! I would definitely recommend this home for any and all pet sitting needs and if I ever need someone to watch Harley again, Jennifer will be the first person I book with! Thank you guys again!!! I appreciate you so much!”

“Amanda took amazing care of our baby. She took him for walks, was patient with his high energy, and even gave him lots of snuggles! Most importantly, she made me feel so at ease about leaving my pup with someone besides family for the first time. I would recommend her over and over again!”
“Nadia took such good care of our girl Bella! She kept up updated on her daily routine, sent photos and made sure Bellzy had lots of treats. We did not worry once about our girl. She was in good hands and we will use Nadia in the future! 😊”

“Great communicator. Ranger felt right at home. He ate everything, every meal which means he was not stressed at all. They did a great job of making him feel safe and welcome.”


“She was incredible and took great care of my dog and even helped with a situation beyond that. I would absolutely recommend anybody to her and I personally think extremely highly of her integrity, compassion, care of animals, and the people that own them.”

“I was nervous leaving my dog with a sitter because I had never left him with anybody before and wasn’t sure how his behavior would be. Shawna did a fantastic job keeping him for me. He was with her for four nights and she sent me photos and updates on how he was doing. I never had to worry about him because I knew he was safe and taken care of. I highly recommend Shawna and will be a repeat customer when needed!”

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kieryn! She was so incredibly sweet and attentive to my dog-child and took such great care of her. I rarely leave my dog with anyone but I had no qualms with Kieryn. She was responsible, communicative, and very understanding of my dog’s special little quirks. I will definitely use her over and over again as the occasions arise.”

“Jillian took the best care of Whitney!! I felt so confident that Whitney was having the best time and getting the best care while we were away! I loved all the pictures & I will definitely use Jillian again! (:”

“They have been amazing to us! Not only have they watched my dog Cooper twice on short notice while fully following his care instructions but they let me keep my car parked at their house during our trip due to car troubles while trying to get to the airport. They have been the best and Cooper loves them!!!”

“Ciera (and her partner) took care of our kitties when we were travelling and did an amazing job! They were very punctual and sent us frequent updates of the cats, including photos and videos. They made sure to give every kitty attention and even got Nomnom to come out of hiding! Ciera was easy to communicate with and replied to messages promptly. Above all, she and her partner are very nice people and we would definitely have them look after our cats again. :)”

About: Available for initial meet up - to ensure a good match. I've had many pets throughout my life. Dogs, cats, lizards, birds, frogs, rabbits, an injured horned owl, raccoons, and fish! I currently share my apartment with one special cat - a rescue cat named Mogwai. I've had both inside and outside dogs. I have trained several of my dogs (small breeds) so I have a fair amount of knowledge. I'm a 36 year old working from home as a retirement financial investment manager during the day. I have a lot of flexibility to be able to also take care of your pet! I think Rover is a great way to meet some cool pups and cats and help people with the many responsibilities of pet ownership. I look forward to meeting you and your pet/pets! Pet care fits easily into my routine since I work from home. I have ample flexibility to care for your fur baby. I’m an active person who like to talk walks and be outside while also loving a good pet cuddle. I ensure it is a good match between me and the animal. Generally speaking, let’s usually like me. I’d give them plenty of attention and love while also ensuring their basic needs like food, water, relief and exercise are met.

About: I’ve pay attention to dogs personalities and enjoy surrounding myself with animals. Nothing more brings me joy than a happy pet! I can teach dogs tricks especially if they’re food motivated it’s fun to see how clever they are. I’m working part-time unfortunately right now I can’t house any dogs unless they are smaller/lapdogs. I am willing to housesit and have a vehicle to provide guaranteed transport. I live next to a park that’s friendly for dogs and I’m available to walk them just about anytime. To care in your home I’m willing to go to dog parks or long walks in the neighbor to reach their needs.

About: While I have not been able to have my own pet cat yet, I have lived with friends in college who had cats, and have taken care of other people’s cats multiple times! I know how to clean a litter box and have no problem doing a deep clean of the box or area if asked. I know cats can be picky around new people and won’t do anything to cause your baby anxiety. Playing with cats is super fun and they have so much energy, but I also enjoy chilling with them if that’s what they prefer!
“Mercedes took great care of my kitty while we were away. She can be very skittish and warmed up to Mercedes quickly. Mercedes also took great care of our house and all the plants while it was very hot out. Thank you!!”


About: I have had pets my whole life and have experience taking care of them and other pets. I am now in college majoring in veterinary medicine I am currently in college but I am from Las Vegas and right now I have a very flexible schedule before I go back to school. I always make sure to do meet and greets so my clients' pets can get to know me in a familiar environment. This also allows clients to show me where things are (food, leash, medications, etc.) and anything else I may need to know to take care of their animals.

About: I’ve been an animal lover since as early as I can remember! My fiancé and I have fostered and cared for homeless dogs that we’ve found, and have even adopted one! I have a cat and two dogs that I love and treat like my babies, just like I would any other pets. I have experience house sitting and caring for animals for 10 consecutive years, between family and friends. I will always care for, and treat your pet like my own! I would love to start to build my clients so I can do this more! I am a SAHM, so my schedule is very flexible to meet the needs of you, and your fur babies, to provide them with exactly what they need. I am very dependable and always thorough in making sure your pets are fully taken care and will strictly follow any routine/schedule that is provided. I will make sure they get all of their energy out during check-ins, walks, and playtime! I will always offer as much time they need to have that interaction they deserve!

“My little one gets nervous with strangers and Gabriela made her feel comfortable and welcoming. She kept me updated every hour. I appreciate it her efforts on making my little one comfortable.”

About: Hi! I'm Kalee and dogs have been a part of my life since I was a kid. I have done several dog training classes over the years, and am currently taking my daughter to classes with her dog and we are learning about all the dog sports and starting to participate in those as well. We have cared for dogs from puppies to seniors both our of own and those we dogsit for. We are a homeschool family, so we are home most of the day to give your dog plenty of attention and playtime. Your dog will be part of the family. We have a very large fenced in yard where we love to sit out with the dogs and toss a ball or frisbee for dogs that like to play. Our dogs stay in a crate when we are not home and at night.

About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and have experience with pets of different sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s needs, including feeding, exercise, medication, and companionship. I provide a safe, loving environment and treat every pet with the same care I would my own. I just graduated college and am unemployed. Needless to say I have plenty of time to dedicate to your fur babies. I have a puppy who would love to keep your dog company and I also have a crate if need be. I have a fully fenced in back yard with plenty of room to run around. I have one puppy who would love to play and keep your dog company. My mornings begin around 6 am with outside potty time. I let my dog out frequently throughout the day and play frequently. I do a final outside potty and play time before bed around 9pm.
“Great dog sitter!! Took amazing care of Storm while I was gone and kept me updated the whole time. Storm came is healthy, happy, and worn out from playing. Definitely someone I trust with my dog and would recommend to anybody needing a reliable sitter. 5 stars. ⭐️”


“Amy was such an amazing sitter who was willing to to take my fur babies last minute! I was nervous since they had never met her or her dogs before but she made me feel super comfortable! In all the pics she sent, the dogs look super happy! I will definitely be using in the future.”

About: I currently have a Masters degree and work from home full time. I am finishing up another Bachelors degree in Animal Science Pre Vet. I have raised four dogs from puppies over the last 15 years. My first two passed from cancer. I currently have two fur babies that are my everything. I have many years of experience in handling and caring for major medical issues with dogs and cats. I work remotely from home so my schedule is extremely flexible. I can accommodate others schedules pretty easily. My two dogs are with me all day, every day. They get all of the love and attention that they could possibly want and then some. 🙂 I have a large yard with a privacy fence for them to run and play in. I will stick to your desired schedule for your pets and all of their needs. I am able to accommodate whatever need or desire you have for your pet care. I am going to love and care for your fur babies just like I do my own.

About: I’ve taken care of lots of different animals my whole life. I grew up on a farm with lots of animals and have used rover with my parents for the last couple years. I am now doing so on my own. I’m currently working part time and taking online classes while my boyfriend is looking for a job. We have a lot of time at home to spend caring and loving on our pets. I have a fenced yard as well as plenty of space for big and energetic dogs. I have personal experience in providing oral medication for my own dog everyday. We also have space to separate dogs if needed.
“Debbie was really great with our girl. Heather was a little nervous and standoffish with the other dogs but relaxed during the day and seemed pretty happy when we picked her up. We will definitely use Debbie in the future!”

About: We have been doing Rover for a decade, and we love hosting your pets in our home! We have always had pets in our home, they’ve always been part of our life! When families are out of town we think it is very important for pets to be taken care of by someone who will treat them like their families do. We want to provide them with love and care while their families are away and help them stick to their routine so they will transition easily back when their family returns home. We have 1 loving pup in our home. She is very well mannered and loves to have furry friends over! Ellie, our dachshund, lost both her dog siblings over the last couple years. So she is always excited to have playmates to spend time with. One of us is home full-time five days a week and we work part time the other two days. So we will have lots of time to give attention and love to your pets. We will provide exercise and play time as well as snuggle and rest time. We have a fenced in yard with a dog run if dogs need some outside time. We also have a gated area in the house so dogs can have their own personal space to eat as well as sleep at night if needed. We also have a spare bedrooms if your kitties are shy and need their own hotel room!
“Leslie has been so great with my anxious little puppy. She is so kind and extremely patient with him. I appreciate the frequent updates and photos that she provides. And I am most grateful for her flexibility with my work schedule. I 100% recommend Leslie of all your doggy sitting needs!”

About: I have taken care multiple breeds of dogs and cats since a young age. I have 3 dogs which are all potty trained and well taken care of! Also, I have 2 calico cats that get along great with the dogs. Friends, family, and neighbors have all relied on me to love and care for there animals I’ve recently just got done playing basketball here at Texas Tech, so I will have plenty of time to take care of your animals. I have a fenced in yard and two furry friends to keep your dog company if you would like. I can also crate your dog if that’s what you prefer!
About: I have cared for dogs for many years and have been a dog lover all of my life. I have three animals ( 2 cats and a dog) who are very loving and caring. If this so happens to be a problem for an owner I have the ability to move my animals in order to care for the owner's dog/dogs. I would walk them everyday because I understand the importance of having daily exercise. Along with this, dog owners will see how happy their dog will be after spending hours with me. There will be plenty of opportunities to have fun with toys and special treats would be in store for those who are well-behaved. I hope that dog owner's will allow me to love their pets just as much as they do. I usually work only four hours a day Monday-Friday which gives me plenty of flexibility to help you with any doggy needs like walks, daycare, etc. I don’t usually go out of town for holidays so I am available during those times. I have an apartment which has a dog park allowing them to roam freely. Also, I live in walking distant to several parks which is always a plus for any dog. In addition, I am a baker who does make organic dog treats for each time the dog is with me. This is dependent on if the owner allows this.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for years! I grew up with a black lab in my home, and have been taking care of other’s fur babies since I was 13. I have a very accessible home that has a huge dog park and lots of room to play. I am currently a college student who’s taking online courses. I am very flexible depending on your pet care needs, typically spending my day working on school. I work part time, sometimes during nights, but can work shifts depending on my schedule. My home is pet accessible, with a large living space and my bedroom being on the second floor. We have a large dog park, a lot of outdoor yardage, and my home is in a gated community. I have no roommates so I can limit the amount of people your fur baby would be around if need be!
About: I can't really think of a time I didn't have a dog, I've learned how to potty train puppies since I was little. Love dogs of all shapes and sizes. Know how to bowl and crate train, as well as all basic commands and care. We have a great shaded and fenced back yard with fresh water and a cool house with dog beds and crates. I've had lots of challenging dogs, and lots of sweet hearts. The two I have now are very good with other dogs, and I have two well behaved kids 2-4 that can be kept separate from the dogs if needed, as we have crates and a yard and multiple rooms (as well as experience in that). Recently got laid off from my blue collar job, so I have lots of free time on my hands rn. I usually let the dogs out as needed throughout the day as they want, or as the heat allows. I have a fenced backyard, and a secure home. Multiple dog crates and multiple spare rooms to separate/secure if needed. Plenty of fresh water and your food of choice only. Have basic care and medical knowledge for dogs, cats, and most pets.
About: I’m one of those people who if I won the lottery I’d buy a giant property so I could extend my love for animals even more! Friends and family often choose me to take care of their fur babies because I treat them like my own with lots of love and care. I can care for any age and size pup, and I have a knack for the seniors and/or those requiring special medical care due to their age or certain circumstances. Don’t be surprised if I watch your fur baby and send you some fancy pics of them because I’m a nerd for photography too! Please note: For house sitting, I have my senior pup that would need to accompany me. If you’re open to that and your dog(s) get along with small dogs, then we can set up a meet and greet. I work from home and I’m a home body in general so having pups over work well as I can give them lots of attention and care. I have a fenced yard and a friendly lovable pup of my own to keep your fur baby company and play with. I let the pups come in and out of the home as much as they need to get potty breaks and sunshine. My home is very dog friendly with various toys to play with, I also have a dog stroller for small senior pups that may need fresh air but not strain their little bodies too much. I can also go on long walks for the pups that have extra energy too!
“Haley was awesome! I asked her to dog sit with very little notice and she was quick to reply and super sweet. Her apartment is nice and quiet and she has a nice area to play with them outside. Would totally recommend!”

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life! I used to work for a dog trainer and learned so much about caring for and understanding different breeds. Since moving to Lubbock five years ago, I’ve done regular dog walking and housesitting for local families, it’s truly something I love to do. I have a flexible schedule, which means your pup gets my full attention and care. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I have two friendly dogs of my own who love having new friends around. My home has a fully fenced backyard where pups can play and stretch their legs safely. I’m also able to crate dogs if needed or if that’s what they’re used to at home, whatever makes them most comfortable!

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and currently have three of my own at home. My grandma breeds dogs, so I’ve had a lot of experience caring for dogs of all ages, including puppies and senior dogs. I also pet sat for many families throughout high school and cared for different breeds and personalities. I truly love being around animals and treat every dog like my own. As a college student, I’m looking for a fun and reliable way to spend time with dogs while helping owners feel confident their pets are in great hands. I am currently just a full time college student so I have plenty of time to care and spend time with pets. I often only have classes 2 times a week so my other days are perfect for spending time caring for your pets needs! I have 3 pets at home that I feed, walk, and play with, so I am very used to spending lots of times with dogs!

A golden retriever, Shiba Inu, French bulldog and my 3 cats. I’ve read them since they were newborn puppies/kittens, so I’m experienced in caring for all ages, from the tiniest to the largest. I’m also well versed in handling various temperaments. One of my cats as special and requires special care so if your pet needs any medication given I can make sure those needs are met. I’ll ensure your pet gets plenty of exercise and playtime while you’re away. I absolutely love taking dogs on walks around the neighborhood.

About: Growing up with dogs—from my childhood Yellow Lab, Chili, to my German Shepherd, Jaylee—instilled in me a lifelong love and deep respect for pets. I’ve been dog sitting for family and friends for years, handling everything from daily walks to overnight care. As a college student, caring for dogs isn't just a side job for me; it’s something I truly enjoy. I take pride in providing a safe, attentive, and fun environment where your pup feels right at home. As a biochemistry major with a double minor in math and biology, I’m used to staying organized and focused. I intentionally manage my workload so I never take on pet care unless I can give your dog the full time and attention they deserve. My busiest day is Thursday during my lab, but because most of my coursework is online, I’m home study-buddy style with your pets during the week. Plus, I keep my Saturdays completely free for fun trips to the park or Starbucks pup cup runs! When caring for your pet in your home, trust and safety are my top priorities. I treat every home with respect and ensure your pet is kept supervised and out of harm’s way by keeping all hazardous items completely out of reach. I also believe that clear communication brings peace of mind, so I send frequent updates and photos throughout the visit to keep you connected with your pet every step of the way!

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life along with cats and horses. I have been taking care of friends and family’s pets for about 4 or more years now.

About: What sets me apart is that I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable and cared for. I’m attentive to details, follow instructions carefully, and make sure pets get plenty of love, exercise, and attention while you’re away. I’m also comfortable caring for puppies who need extra patience and consistency, as well as senior pets who may require a slower pace, medication, or additional care. My goal is to treat every pet like they’re part of my own family, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time with animals. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping pets company, I’m able to give them the attention and care they deserve. I make it a priority to follow each pet’s routine so they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away. I love to spend time with dogs and cats just playing with them or even cuddling. I have a big backyard in my house with a pool so I love to run around with my dog there
About: I have been around dogs my entire life. I have owned all shapes and sizes. I currently have a whippit-pitbull mix who is my child. I know how precious pets are to a family and offer the same care I would offer to a person. I love going to shelters to play with the dogs and give them love. If I could adopt every dog in the world I would, until them I will give them love and care while their parents are away. I work full-time during the week, but I am 100% free to stop in on weekend and holidays and walk or love on the dog. My schedule is a little tight Monday through Friday as I have my own baby to get home, but I am happy to stop in after work. I do not offer services in my home as I live with roommates who also have a dog. I am more than willing to do stop in visits in the dogs home.

He was with her for four nights and she sent me photos and updates on how he was doing. I never had to worry about him because I knew he was safe and taken care of. I highly recommend Shawna and will be a repeat customer when needed!”

I will definitely use her over and over again as the occasions arise.”

They have been the best and Cooper loves them!!!”

“This was my second time asking Paul to board Jadie, and my experience was as great as the first time. He shared videos and pictures throughout the day, and Jadie was always having a good time.
