“Hubs and I travel full-time for work, so we have to find new dog care when we move around the country. So glad we found Rochelle and Tater for a week when I went for a getaway. We got lots of updates, pics and video. Grateful for Rochelle's great care. We'll definitely be back if we take another long weekend while we're in the area. 🤩”
“Patrick took amazing care of my dog Jäger. Jager is getting older and slowing down and Patrick made sure to keep an extra eye on him. Sent me plenty of updates throughout the stay. 5/5 Will be booking again.”
“I really appreciated the videos of the boys playing. It was nice to be able to see them when I was gone to visit family for Thanksgiving. If I’m in the area I would definitely use Sheila again. I recommend her wholeheartedly”
“5 stars! Luis is exceptional! I actually was worried that Coco wouldn't want to leave with us after the 2days we left her there. Communication was excellent, everything was just perfect. Thanks a lot”
“Marci was GREAT! I had concerns leaving our dog with anyone as he can be a handful, not in a bad way but a bit anxious and high energy. Marci was very confident he would not be a problem. Her calmness and demeanor was a perfect fit for Robin Hood. Although she has multiple dogs and cats of her own, Robin was able to adjust and become part of the pack during his stay. When in need for a pet sitter again I’m checking in with Marci!”
“I would highly recommend Anthony. From the beginning he was very responsive and thorough. He was flexible working around my schedule and did a great job with my dogs. 5 stars all around.”
“What a great weekend my dog had with Richard and Stephanie. They were very mindful of my sweet senior dog. So much love and tender care. He sent pictures and videos of her and her antics. This is the first time she hasn't lost weight or hasn't eaten the first day of her stay. I highly recommend Richard and Stephanie.”
“Our two pups had a great week with Nancy and came home happy and healthy. Nancy was quick to respond to my questions and sent pictures and videos occasionally. We are very thankful to have such a great sitter for Moxie and Scarlet!”
“Jill and her family were wonderful for our babies first stay. I felt very at ease and as if she treated them as her own. My little dogs definitely enjoyed their freedom and exploring time. We will be coming back!”
“We feel our pups are in the BEST hands with Blair. Our fur babies always come back with wagging tails after leaving. We love how she cares for them as if they’re her own. ❤️❤️❤️❤️”
“Perfect hosts for us and our dogs! It's the first time we've used Rover, but I'm so glad we did. From the very beginning, they made us feel completely at ease—great communication, very attentive, and clearly experienced with dogs. A special mention to Jessica, who has her own bakery/pastry business—she even gifted us some of her products, and they were absolutely delicious. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and genuinely caring hosts.”
“We found Dayna on short notice for a quick weekend in San Antonio. She kept us in the loop as we have two older english bulldogs, but they looked to have a ton of fun and seemed to enjoy themselves immensely. We would absolutely recommend Dayna to anyone and will be using her again if she has openings when we are looking for a dog sitter.”
“Natalia and her family were lovely with our dogs. I’m quite sure they were spoiled. Calm, with two well behaved dogs of their own. My dogs came back happy and relaxed. Thank you!”
“Thanks for providing such good care of my baby. I especially enjoyed the many photo updates you sent us. I was nervous, as this was the first time he stayed with a stranger and other dogs, but you made us feel comfortable with the updates. I felt that my Coco was well taken care of and definitely recommend you to others.”
“Our experience with Newana was amazing. She awesome with communicating and treated our Nova like her own. Nova had a blast with her family and we have the pictures to prove it. We will definitely be requesting Newana’s services again in the near future.”
“Melinda was great with our dog Beau! She was super easy to communicate with and kept us updated with pics and messages, which we really appreciated. Beau seemed really happy and comfortable the whole time. She followed all our instructions and clearly took good care of him. We came home to a happy pup 😊 Would definitely book with her again!”
“Thank you for looking after our girl Petra while we were out of town. The daily picture updates were much appreciated. I could tell she was having fun and not missing our absence as much. We’ll definitely be back. Thanks again!”
“I didn't get to meet Jennifer this time, but Justin was so nice. They took my energetic puppy with short notice, and he had a blast, he came back all played out lol. I would love for them to be Huck's sisters anytime I'm away”

In addition to her exceptional care, she has the best energy and we hope to continue scheduling Emma when we travel. Thank you Emma for being there for Kona & Aka!”

“Kasey did a great job watching my two cats on very short notice over the holidays! She was very good about sending me pictures and updates from her drop-in visits. I had never been away from my cats for this long before, but I was very comfortable knowing that Kasey was taking care of them. I know she made sure to give my cats some extra attention and love during her check-ins, and both cats warmed up to her very fast. Both my babies seemed very happy and content when I returned from my trip. I would ask Kasey to watch my cats again in the future!”

“Rico is a rescue puppy and was left alone in his early life making him a little needy and does not like leaving your side...Saying that, his furrrst stay with Sheila went great! She provided an update while playing and let him "hang" with her to assure him, it's going to be okay... We already have another date schedule and I know he's looking forward to seeing her and Skeeter again!”
About: Hi there! My name is Lauren. Some helpful things to know about me is that I have 5+ years experience in animal care. I've worked at animal shelters and as a manager at a pet daycare/boarding facility, I also have done pet sitting and dog walking on my own in the past. I've recently moved to the area and want to continue working with animals. I am responsible, reliable and will treat your pets as if they were my own. I love to send lots of updates and pictures so you know your pets are well taken care of. I have just recently moved to Alvarado and left my job at Operation Kindness Humane Society because the commute would of been too long. So my schedule is very open as of right now while I look for another job. I have a large yard, however it is not fully fenced. If you'd like for your pup to come to my house I would walk them to go potty. I also have 2 dogs that are dog friendly so if your pup likes to play they will get along great. My dogs are fully vaccinated and up to date all all shots and preventions. For your baby to stay with me I would need to see vaccination records, just to make sure everyone is safe and healthy. If you'd prefer me to pet sit at your home I am more than happy to do that as well and stay consistent with the daily routine you have with your animals. This is usually my preferred way, as it is less stressful for your animals to be in a familiar environment.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for multiple dogs of different breeds and personalities, including my four dogs at home — two dachshunds, a yorkie, and a schnauzer. Over the years, I’ve been responsible for many aspects of their daily care, from feeding and walking to bathing, grooming, and administering medication when needed. Caring for several dogs at once has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to recognize each dog’s unique needs and behavior. I genuinely love animals and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I also have experience helping family and friends with pet sitting, which has helped me become confident handling dogs in different environments and routines. My schedule is very flexible right now since I am home from college for the summer, so my availability is pretty wide open. I am available most days and can easily adjust to different pet care schedules, whether that’s daily visits, walks, feeding times, or overnight stays. The only times I am unavailable are Mondays and Wednesdays from 7:30–9:00 due to soccer practice. Outside of that, I have plenty of time and energy to dedicate to caring for pets and making sure they get the attention and care they need. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my everyday life. At home, I help take care of my four dogs and my cat by feeding them, walking them, bathing them, cleaning up after them, administering medication when needed, and making sure they always feel loved and comfortable. Having multiple pets has taught me how to manage different personalities, energy levels, and routines while still giving each pet the individual attention they deserve. I also have experience caring for other people’s pets in their homes through pet sitting for family and friends. I understand how important it is to keep pets comfortable in their own environment and to follow their normal routines as closely as possible. Whether it’s feeding schedules, playtime, walks, medication, or simply giving them company and affection, I make sure every pet feels safe, cared for, and happy while their owners are away

About: I grew up on a ranch caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, horses, goats, and cows, which taught me responsibility, patience, and compassion. I’ve always had pets in my home, so caring for animals is second nature to me. I have pet-sitting experience and take pride in providing the best care possible, as if it were my own. Above all, I have a deep passion for animals of all kinds, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away.

About: I don’t just take care of the family furry paw members. I watch over the whole house. I make sure everything is taken care of while they are away. They are my first priority and my last when I’m helping someone else out. I take care of them before leaving for work and visit them when I return from work. It also depends if I’m staying at the house or just making stops in between the days. I have a fenced yard with a patio that is separate from the grass area. I have a doggy door so they can go in and out if they know how to use one. If not they learn while I have them in my care. My fur babies love playing with other dogs. If I’m at the clients home, they get lots of love and attention. I make sure they get their playing time in multiple times a day before bed time. If it’s not to hot I do try to squeeze a walk in even if it’s a small one.
About: Since I was a child I have been in charge of caring for all of our families animals. This has given me experience in care of so many different animals.

I have no full time commitments so I am open to helping people and their animals any time it is needed. I would prefer morning daytime or evening. I have 3 cats and 2 small dogs. We also have a fenced in backyard. I also have no children so my animals are my babies.

I offer dog walking, house sitting, and other pet care services, and you can count on me to treat your pets as my own. I’m responsible, trustworthy, and committed to giving your dog the best care. I have a flexible schedule. I am the most available from 9am-4pm Monday-Friday, but I am available for evening and weekend visits, especially when house-sitting. I am an experienced house-sitter along with pet care, so I will be sure to be a cleanly and respectful guest in your home. My stays depend on each dog’s needs, but typically includes yard time, walks, and cuddles.
About: Being a country girl, I have pet sit anything from dogs to indoor pot belly pigs to even donkeys. I've had dogs my entire life (4 of my own currently) and love to make your worry less while away. I love to send pictures and videos so you can see first hand how much love they are receiving when you are away. If you have animals besides cats and dogs, I would love to help with them as well. I work part time for a local retailer and prefer to be with animals so, I can almost always move my schedule around to accommodate except the time line that I need to get in the school line for my kids I only pet sit in your home as I have 5 very spoiled dogs on my own. I do bring my 5 old and 9 year old with me if I can to help play ball and show your pups (or fellow animals as much affection as they need while you are away.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was twelve and have owned 3 Maltese dogs! I have also cared for stray dogs and cats in the neighborhood. My schedule is flexible, and I am available throughout the holidays! I am often free in the evenings so nightly pet bookings at my home are welcomed. Water. Food, Playtime, and Regular Potty Breaks! A dog bed can also be provided to accommodate your pet. Let me know of any special needs your pet may have, such as medication.
About: I have extensive experience caring for the animals of family and friends. With a great deal of patience, I can help even the shyest animals feel comfortable and secure. Over time, I build strong, trusting relationships with the animals I care for, ensuring they feel loved and well-taken care of. I'm a mom of one teenager who is an animal lover as well I'm always up at 6 am to see my daughter off to school on the bus and my husband to work I'm a stay-at-home mom I keep the house clean and other stuff around the house but I mostly love spending time with our 2 dogs and one cat When watching your loved one in my home I want your pets to feel at home and comfortable I want my house to be your pet's vacation away from Home my house is a big animal lover so your pets will get love and care with my family.
About: Dogs, cats, goats, rabbits, pigs, cattle, horses, lizards, axolotls- you name it, I've cared for it! A former 4H & FFA member, I've cared for my own animals as well as livestock at other ranches. I have experience administering medicine, and have cared for animals who were diabetic, blind, deaf, or had other special needs. I am a teacher on summer break. I drop off and pick up my child at daycare each day, but other than that my days are pretty flexible. I make it a priority to ensure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for in their own familiar environment. I follow your instructions closely and make sure to give them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection (if they want it!), so they feel loved and not alone while you're away. Each visit is tailored to your pet’s needs, whether they enjoy a quick game of fetch, a short walk around the yard, or simply some calm companionship. I always keep an eye on their behavior and well-being, and I provide updates and photos so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.

“Hubs and I travel full-time for work, so we have to find new dog care when we move around the country. So glad we found Rochelle and Tater for a week when I went for a getaway. We got lots of updates, pics and video. Grateful for Rochelle's great care. We'll definitely be back if we take another long weekend while we're in the area. 🤩”
“Patrick took amazing care of my dog Jäger. Jager is getting older and slowing down and Patrick made sure to keep an extra eye on him. Sent me plenty of updates throughout the stay. 5/5 Will be booking again.”
“I really appreciated the videos of the boys playing. It was nice to be able to see them when I was gone to visit family for Thanksgiving. If I’m in the area I would definitely use Sheila again. I recommend her wholeheartedly”
“5 stars! Luis is exceptional! I actually was worried that Coco wouldn't want to leave with us after the 2days we left her there. Communication was excellent, everything was just perfect. Thanks a lot”
“Marci was GREAT! I had concerns leaving our dog with anyone as he can be a handful, not in a bad way but a bit anxious and high energy. Marci was very confident he would not be a problem. Her calmness and demeanor was a perfect fit for Robin Hood. Although she has multiple dogs and cats of her own, Robin was able to adjust and become part of the pack during his stay. When in need for a pet sitter again I’m checking in with Marci!”
“I would highly recommend Anthony. From the beginning he was very responsive and thorough. He was flexible working around my schedule and did a great job with my dogs. 5 stars all around.”
“What a great weekend my dog had with Richard and Stephanie. They were very mindful of my sweet senior dog. So much love and tender care. He sent pictures and videos of her and her antics. This is the first time she hasn't lost weight or hasn't eaten the first day of her stay. I highly recommend Richard and Stephanie.”
“Jill and her family were wonderful for our babies first stay. I felt very at ease and as if she treated them as her own. My little dogs definitely enjoyed their freedom and exploring time. We will be coming back!”
“We feel our pups are in the BEST hands with Blair. Our fur babies always come back with wagging tails after leaving. We love how she cares for them as if they’re her own. ❤️❤️❤️❤️”
“Perfect hosts for us and our dogs! It's the first time we've used Rover, but I'm so glad we did. From the very beginning, they made us feel completely at ease—great communication, very attentive, and clearly experienced with dogs. A special mention to Jessica, who has her own bakery/pastry business—she even gifted us some of her products, and they were absolutely delicious. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and genuinely caring hosts.”
“We found Dayna on short notice for a quick weekend in San Antonio. She kept us in the loop as we have two older english bulldogs, but they looked to have a ton of fun and seemed to enjoy themselves immensely. We would absolutely recommend Dayna to anyone and will be using her again if she has openings when we are looking for a dog sitter.”
“Thanks for providing such good care of my baby. I especially enjoyed the many photo updates you sent us. I was nervous, as this was the first time he stayed with a stranger and other dogs, but you made us feel comfortable with the updates. I felt that my Coco was well taken care of and definitely recommend you to others.”
“Our experience with Newana was amazing. She awesome with communicating and treated our Nova like her own. Nova had a blast with her family and we have the pictures to prove it. We will definitely be requesting Newana’s services again in the near future.”
“Thank you for looking after our girl Petra while we were out of town. The daily picture updates were much appreciated. I could tell she was having fun and not missing our absence as much. We’ll definitely be back. Thanks again!”
“I didn't get to meet Jennifer this time, but Justin was so nice. They took my energetic puppy with short notice, and he had a blast, he came back all played out lol. I would love for them to be Huck's sisters anytime I'm away”
“Isis and Nas had their second stay with Lydia and her husband Emmanuel. They took great care of my fur babies. I will continue to use their services. I definitely recommend Lydia and Emmanuel to care for your pets.”
“Vimonluck was excellent. He sent a lot of pictures and updates. We having been struggling to get Zeus to walk on the leash without doing a military crawl he walked all the way to car last night on the leash without crawling so thank you. I would definitely recommend him and will definitely rebook.”
“This was the first time using Phil and Randa. They were really great about communicating and sending pictures. Our dog had an indecent with a skunk, and Phil and Randa gave her multiple baths and cared for her like she was their dog. We will definitely use them again!”
