“It is so amazing to find people in our community that will love on and take care of our boys as if they were their own. Ashley and her family spoiled our boys and they were worn out when they got home. Thank you so much for being amazing sitters.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a great experience with Andrea’s dog boarding service! My dog really enjoyed the stay. Andrea was very responsive and even accommodated an extra day on short notice, which we truly appreciated. Highly recommended—thank you, Andrea!”
“Wendy was absolutely fantastic with my our dog while I was away for a couple of days. She was incredibly communicative and sent frequent picture and video updates, which gave us total peace of mind. You can genuinely tell how much she loves dogs and cares for them like her own. I highly recommend booking with Wendy she's amazing!!!”
“Rover newbie here. Had an awesome first time experience. Lori was great and her 3 wiener dogs were adorable too. I think Pandak misses them ?. Appreciate the picture she sent during his stay. Highly recommended”
“I had an excellent experience with Johnny! He was incredibly friendly, kept me updated with great communication throughout my dog's stay, and made me feel completely at ease. It was clear my dog was well cared for and treated with kindness. The biggest sign of how wonderful the experience was? My dog came home happy, relaxed, and with absolutely no anxiety (like he usually does at other boarding places). I couldn't have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust him to care for my dog again. Highly recommend!”
“Dana took great care of my fur babies. One is blind and needs a little extra care. My dogs felt at home and found their place with a couple of hours. They enjoyed playing with Dana’s dogs, too. I’ll definitely book with her again. Thanks so very much Dana!”
“Susan was amazing with Cookie! 🐶❤️ This was my first time leaving him with a sitter, and she made me feel completely comfortable. She sent me lots of pictures and updates, and I could tell Cookie was happy and very well cared for. She was so sweet and attentive with my little baby. I’m so happy we found her and will definitely be using her again. I highly recommend Susan! 🐾”
“Angelo was very responsive and caring. Loved seeing the updates given from him, the dogs looked so happy in every photo received. Angelo also took his time in the beginning to ask questions about the dogs which I highly appreciated.”
“I absolutely love CJ staying with Thi, he loves it and you can see in his pics he is having a good time! It’s like a treat for him and a break for me ❤️ we’ll be back!!!”
“At the last minute Ali sustained an injury. I was afraid that Irma may not be equipped to or may not want to deal with it on such short notice but I was wrong. Irma assured me that it wasn’t a problem and she was true to her word, everything was perfect! She took care of my Ali like she would her own puppy. She sent me pictures all weekend as well as a report on how he was feeling a couple times a day. I truly appreciate the care she provided and will definitely use her again! Irma is the best! Additionally, her puppy and mine are now #Besties❤️”
“Silvia is actually 6 stars but that’s not an option. I’m hesitant to leave a review so she’s not booked when we need her :) She and her family are fantastic with our dog. She is extremely professional and goes to great lengths to make sure our dog is comfortable. She contacts us to ensure she has our blessing for any care or activity outside of what was discussed. Ex. If she has a particular treat for her pups, she’ll makes sure it’s ok with us before giving one to our dog. She sends photos and is a great communicator. I will use her every single time, no hesitation.”
“I recently had the pleasure of leaving my kitten in Ashley’s care for the weekend, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! She was incredibly accommodating from the start—allowing me to drop my kitten off the night before my trip due to an early morning flight. Ashley kept me updated throughout the weekend with regular pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My kitten was initially a bit of a challenge, hissing when we dropped her off, but Ashley was patient and kind, and by Saturday, they were cuddling and playing like old friends. She also noticed that my kitten had dirty ears and had been scratching at them. Not only did she let me know right away, but she also offered to clean them and apply a topical treatment. I truly appreciated her attentiveness and care. Ashley went above and beyond, and it’s clear she genuinely loves and understands animals. I’ll absolutely be booking with her again. She’s earned a repeat customer!”
“When we needed to board our dog, the decision was easy - Angela. Our dog is 15 years old and needs 3 daily meds. Angela handled this easily. If you want pictures of your dog, she is your sitter. There is no doubt that we will use Angela again.”
“Kathryn was wonderful with our dog while we were on vacation! Communication was great—she sent daily updates and lots of videos, which we really appreciated. Our dog has some separation anxiety and she was incredibly patient and caring with him. It was clear he was being well looked after. We’d absolutely book with her again.”
“This was the first time we've ever left our sweet Poppy for more than a couple of hours and so we were really nervous leaving her with a sitter. But meeting Carrie, my nerves melted away instantly!! She was SO wonderful, welcoming and patient with our pup when she displayed signs of being nervous herself. While we were gone, Carrie made it a priority to send me updates and photos throughout the day and I couldn't be more grateful!! We will DEFINITELY be using Carrie again in the future - she made this whole experience so amazing!!! Thank you, Carrie!! Love - The Torres Family”
“Michelle was perfect to watch my puppy all week! She was so kind and sweet to my dog. She would even send photos of her everyday while we were gone and is very communicative. 10/10!”
“Brandon is my new favorite dog sitter and I am thrilled. He and his partner Rhonda were wonderful to meet, very welcoming to Stella and me in their home. Brandon was noticeably helpful in my communications with him; easy-going during my search for a sitter and also at drop-off. He was especially excellent with daily contact to show me photos and to share notes about her status; it was a grand surprise to hear from him within just a few hours after drop-off. I have complete confidence in his professional skills and attitude. I’m crossing my fingers that he will be available each time Stella needs a pet-sitter in the future.”
“Finally, our pup Apawlo found a second home. Roland is awesome, we received regular updates and took care of Apawlo better than we would have taken care of him We will be regulars”

“Kristen was fantastic! She did an amazing job taking care of our furr-babies. She connected with our most timid and shy cat who hides from all strangers. She was so great about sharing her updates and photos with us, making sure our cats were well cared for while we were away. Would absolutely recommend her and would use her again in the future.”
“Madeline was a great sitter. She watched my cat and rabbit for 3 days and was perfect! I told her all she needed to do was feed them but she went out of her way every single visit to sit on the floor with my babies and make them feel loved. The care she gave them was excellent I could not recommend her enough.”
About: I nearly constantly had cats while growing up - our house never felt complete without a cat in it 😺 Until recently, I hadn't had a cat in many years for a variety of reasons and settled for feeding the outdoor cats wherever I lived and rescuing and re-homing any strays. However, I stumbled upon a sweet, stray, tortie kitten last Fall and won her trust. I was able to bring her home and she has wiggled and purred her way into the whole family's hearts 💖 I love cats with my entire heart and will do anything I possibly can to keep them happy, healthy and safe. A neighbor, whom I had never met before, flagged me down Spring of 2024 and asked if I could help her catch a Momma cat and two kittens in her bushes. I took on the job and spent the majority of the day out in the rain catching these babies. Caught the kittens that day and the Momma later on that night and reunited them all at Animal Control the next day. I confirmed beforehand that they had the space for the kitties and for them to please call if they weren't adopted after they were made available. This has been a bit long winded and all over the place, but the point is, I LOVE CATS and I would love to care for your cat or cats while you are away. They will be greatly loved 💖
“Wendy has been sitting for us our cats for quite sometime now. The cats like her and she does a good job of giving one of our cats his daily medication. She also takes the time to play with them and send photos and a detailed report from each check in to show how everything is.”
“Paige is a very nice person and so is her husband. From what I have experienced, she truly does love taking care of animals. My little lady took to her right away. I initially had hired Paige to house/pet sit for me but unfortunately had to cancel and she was very understanding and accommodating, which I really appreciated. I was also impressed with how prepared she was to ask all the right questions to prepare for the job. I have used her since and was nice to feel comfortable leaving my girl in her care. Highly recommend!”
About: I have over two years of hands-on experience working as a veterinary technician, caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, personalities, and medical needs. I’m comfortable with senior pets, nervous or anxious pets, medication administration, and recognizing when something may not be quite right. I treat every pet with patience and compassion and will make sure they receive the same level of attention and care I would want for my own pets.
“This was our first time to use Wendy and she is wonderful. She is so sweet with our cats. She sent several great pictures and went beyond to put our mail and packages on the porch. She's a keeper.”
“Jesika did a great job taking care of my two kitties. She was very easy to communicate with and was very detailed and thorough. I appreciated the pictures she sent and my cats were doing great when I came back!”
“Holly did a great job cat sitting! She was very responsive and concerned with providing the best care possible, and I felt very safe leaving her to watch over my cat! 10/10 would book again”
“Cierra was great! She accepted a last minute request to check in on my pups and did an excellent job making sure they were happy and cared for. Very happy with her sitting services!!!”
“Dana is prompt and checks in with us while caring for our kitties with drop-in visits. She even brought a package into our house that was left on the porch! We know our fur babies are in good hands with Dana.”
About: I grew up with cats my whole life. In recent years I’ve rehabilitated two cats & brought them from the brink of death to perfect health. I also have a good amount of experience with different cat-itudes as I used to volunteer with my sister at shelters.
“Excellent and professional provider. My dog was happy and she followed the schedule. I will be using her again this was so convenient and allowed my elder dog to stay in his home where he is more comfortable.”
“Tessa thank you so much for always taking care of Benny. He loves you! We appreciate the updates and cutest pictures you send. For anyone reading this, 100% recommend Tessa. She is THE BEST.”

About: I have had pets my whole life ranging from cats to birds to fish. I also love dogs and so does my 9 year old daughter and my husband. I have cared for family members, neighbors and friends animals (cats and dogs) for many years. My cat is 19 years old and I have also had to say goodbye to my baby, Daphnie who I had from the time she was a baby until she passed away, and my other baby Willow, who we rescued when we lived in Hawaii and was a part of our family for about 10 years. I am therefore familiar with senior care for animals. I’ve administered oral, topical and iv meds (yes I did that home with one of my cats near the end of her life). I love to walk and run and have always enjoyed taking dogs for a walk when I’ve cared for the pets of others. I have even cared for a few rowdy young dogs that were still in puppy training school. I have been pet sitting on River for about 3 years. I’ve done many drop in visits, boarding and dog walks for my clients. I am currently a home maker so I have a flexible schedule to care for your babies. Most weeks I am able to do mornings, mid day and evenings I have a fenced in yard. I have one cat, who has been around dogs, lived with a dog and is used to the occasional dog being boarded in our home. He is fine with dogs as long as the dogs are calm towards him. I would not be able to host in my home any very young dogs that may want to “play” with my cat as he is older and also has no interest in being friends with a dog. He is very non-aggressive and tends to mostly avoid them whenever I board.
“Beautiful fenced yard. Kids and family dog to play with. Perfect for our Houston Space Center outing. We will definitely use Ashley again if we’re ever in the area :)”
“Bear had so much fun and treats during her stay with Thi. Thi and her husband is such a lovely, caring and passionate couple. They took wonderful pictures of Bear that really impressed me. She updated me everything that happened during Bear’s stay, this proves her dedication for caring and loving Bear. I totally can trust my furbaby with Thi and her husband and will be a repeated client in the future.”
“Second time using Synamon and Christopher we absolutely love them! Miklos always has a blast and doesn't want to leave. Our sweet pup is already for his next visit with his second family.💗”
“Very lucky to have found this sweet family to care for our pups for the day! They sent me updates and pictures letting me know my boys were having a good time! Alexis and Sean are so friendly, patient and attentive. We highly recommend them and hope to see them again soon!”
“Mariah and her pups were fantastic. While I was nervous at first she put me at ease by sending updates with pictures throughout the day. When I picked him up he was very happy and I could tell he was loved. We will be goi g back for sure.”

“Johnny was extremely kind with Sam and us!! He was super responsive and understanding. Sam came back extremely happy from his time with Johnny :) he took well care of Sam and kept him safe when it was pouring rain. Definitely would recommend:)”
“Ashley was incredibly communicative right from the beginning.. Bentley is a very shy dog who takes a while to warm up, but to my surprise, he settled in and got comfortable with her very quickly. She was very clear and thorough with Bentley’s care. That says so much about her calm and caring nature. She truly put me at ease the entire time, making the whole experience completely stress-free.

About: Dogs have been part of my life since I got my first pup at age 5, and I’ve been raising and caring for them ever since. Our home includes a 7-year-old mini Frenchie who’s a pro at reading the room - she loves a good play session but also knows when to give other dogs their space. My 3.5-year-old is growing up with the same love for dogs and has learned to respect boundaries and recognize when it’s time to play or give pets their space. Your dog will be treated like family here, with plenty of love, attention, and a calm, dog-savvy household that understands every pup is unique. We have a fenced-in backyard for as much outdoor play your pup may require. I work full time from home with a very flexible schedule, which means I’m around throughout the day to provide attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. My routine naturally revolves around my own pup’s needs, so caring for your dog fits seamlessly into our daily flow. Whether it’s morning walks, midday play sessions, or just hanging out together while I work, your dog will have consistent supervision and plenty of quality time. We have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and explore. My 20-pound mini Frenchie is always up for a playmate when the vibe is right, but she’s equally content to let other pups do their own thing. For peace of mind, we’re just 8 minutes from the nearest emergency vet, so immediate care is readily accessible if ever needed.
About: I have been a dog owner for 8 plus years. Currently I have 4 rescue dogs. Dogs bring me joy and I love their different personalities. I enjoy playing with them, walking and having cuddle time. I currently have older kids that don’t require much time thus available during the week and weekends to help out with pets. My schedule is flexible. I have a large fenced in yard and a doggy door that allows my fur babies to go in and out as they please. I also watch the dogs as they are outside.
About: I have been with dogs my whole life. I have volunteered at shelters for many years. I can care for young and old dogs and all the ones in between. I have a 5 year old Boston who loves to play! I work full time from home. My job allows me to walk away whenever needed. I’m typically up by 5:30 am. I can accommodate any feeding time and any meds needed. My dog mainly naps during the day, but she’s also very playful. I have a fully fenced in private yard with plenty of room to frolic. I have beds of all sizes all over my house and dogs are always welcome in my bed and in furniture.
About: I have loved and cared for all kinds of pets my entire life, and have had both cats and dogs. I currently have three cats! I will love and care for your pets as my own. Pet care is already built into my daily routine, as I take care of my own three cats! I can easily work your pets routine into mine as well. I will love and care for your pets as my own! My household is not only animal friendly, my cats essentially run my household! They will be a part of our family.

About: I take on caring for sweet puppers in my spare time. I am a stay-at-home-mom to three sweet boys, 6 and under, and we love to play with pups and go on walks with them 💖 My partner, Travis, will help care for your furry friend if I must run an errand while your dog stays with us, but I will be the primary caregiver. It is very rare that we are all out of the home at the same time, and if so, it is never for long. I am comfortable administering medication as needed. I can care for any breed, however, some I cannot watch in my own home. I love tiny floofs, big lap dogs and everything in between. I have had a number of pets throughout my life and have loved every second of being around them. Pets are an important part to any family, big or small, and we look forward to looking after your pups and ensuring a safe, loving environment for them to thrive in while you are away. Thank you for your time, I look forward to hearing from you and your pup! 💖 -Tara I am currently a stay-at-home-mom to three boys, 6 and under, so I am almost always home to hang out with kids and pups! The boys LOVE to go for walks, so we have no shortage of outside time - weather permitting. Pups receive regular walks, water breaks and lots of love and pets. We will pay careful attention to things owners mention like putting trash cans high-up and keeping our furry friends away from other dogs.

About: I grew up helping take care of the family pets; we had cats, dogs, fish, & rabbits! I’ve always loved taking care of pets and will never say no to an opportunity to meet new ones :) I have experience taking care of: cats, dogs, fish, turtles, rabbits, ferrets, guinea pigs, & hamsters. I have experience medicating, feeding, and basic grooming. I routinely check for potential hazards and remove them from the environment. I’m currently unemployed due to the turbulent job market, so I have all the time in the world to care for your pets. When I’m not home taking care of my own animals, I’m out looking for work or a new place to volunteer. I’m always making sure there’s no choking hazards on my pets toys & making sure their water & food are always topped off. They always get extra love & brushing at the end of the day. (And maybe a couple extra treats if they’ve been good)

“I cannot recommend Neysha enough! She is SO wonderful and patient with my energetic puppy, Sandy. It was hard to leave Sandy to go back to work, but Neysha made it so much easier. She takes her for walks, runs, to dog park and even gives her a massage to calm her down when needed! If your pet is in need of a kind, knowledgeable, fun companion, Neysha is the right person for you. We just love her.”

About: ***I did just have a baby so I may not be taking certain bookings for reasons such as distance, time, and whether the animal is friendly with children. Thank you!!*** Hi there! I'm Paige, and my passion for animals has been with me for as long as I can remember. I've always been the one to befriend any creature, big or small – yes, even bugs! Over the years, I've been entrusted with the care of friends' beloved pets, and I've relished getting to know each one's unique personality. My experience is extensive, having worked in two reputable kennels and a lively doggie daycare. On top of that, I have regularly volunteered at a local farm, so I'm no stranger to getting my hands dirty in the name of furry friends. When you choose me, you're not just getting a pet sitter – you're getting someone who will go the extra mile to understand and meet your pet's needs. Your furry family member will feel right at home with me. Let's create a pawsitive experience for your pet together! I am currently staying at home raising my baby boy and trying to achieve my other main goal in life, caring for animals full time. I hope to one day open a facility of my own, most of my time is fully open for rover opportunities. I currently have three wonderful pets in my life: Sonny, my dashing 5-year-old cat, Night my handsome 1 yr old cat, and Lucky my energetic 1yr old pup (🌈 Abby, my lovely 13-year-old dog🌈). Caring for them is a central part of my daily routine. I'm always on the lookout for the well-being of my fur babies, just as I would be for yours. I find joy in interactive playtime with my kitty and enjoy taking my dog on exciting adventures, including trips to the dog park, long walks, and even hikes! My approach to pet care varies depending on the setting. When it comes to walking dogs, whether it's in my home or at a client's place, I prefer taking leisurely strolls around the block. My top priority is ensuring the comfort and happiness of my furry companions, both at home and with clients. I'm committed to going the extra mile to provide exceptional care for your beloved pets, just as I do for my own.
About: I have had animals my entire life from cats and dogs to horses and goats. I work in healthcare and can follow diet and medication instructions easily. I am currently available everyday. I can sit late afternoons or evenings as well. I also do overnights and weekends. If you need drop-ins or walks I can arrange that too. I have a 4 acre yard including a large fenced in area and also a smaller kennel area if needed for outside animals. Inside animals are welcome as I have an extra room with bedding, toys, leashes, and crates. If your animal does not use a crate for sleep that is fine also. They can sleep on their bed or pillow in the common area.
“Mia was great! I had never had someone walk my dog and was a little nervous. She made me feel super comfortable. She took some great pictures along the way! We will be using her again!”
About: i love dogs and especially my dogs i’ve always cared for them so much they’re my favorite animal and to be able to do this as a side hustle is a big blessing i currently work nights wednesday thursday and friday trying to save up for a new car and for school so i can finish paying off my classes i treat my dog how i would want mine to be treated i take her out every morning as soon as i wake up and make her food while she’s outside and usually take a little time to play with her outside
About: Animals have always been a passion of mine, and i’ve always found a way to be around them whether it’s volunteering at animal shelters to interning at wildlife refuges. In college I interned at a wildlife center in Texas where I was a caretaker for many exotic species such as ostriches, emus, lynxes, and pheasants, I’ve always been the go to person for taking care of pets within my community. It started with me taking care of my aunt’s dogs while she was away, to my aunt’s neighbor’s dogs, to dogs of my professors, and so on. However, I began to professionally pet sit in 2018 receiving most of my clients through word of mouth. Through moving to New York city, I lost the network that I built back home. Through pet sitting I gained experience for caring for dogs, cats, and even birds. I also have knowledge in caring for animals with special needs and administering medication to animalsof all ages and sizes. I love to play and run around with dogs, so they will definitely be in for a workout! I would love to be able to provide the love and care that your dog needs and deserves while you’re away from home. I’m currently working varied hours, so my schedule can be flexible to your pets! No time is too early for me to rise to ensure that your pet’s routine is maintained. My number one goal is to ensure that your pet is comfortable in their own home. This means maintaining their schedule, reassuring their social needs, and most of all giving them love. I will do safety checks throughout the day to ensure harmful objects are out of reach. As a pet sitter, it’s important to provide a trustworthy and reliable service. While you’re gone, your pet will be undergoing a stressful time. So although you may not be present, it's important that your pet’s day to day life remains the same.During this time they’ll also receive love and nurturing. Communication is key during your time away, so you should expect a daily update on how your pet is doing. Lastly, I only take one client at a time to ensure that I can spend ample time with your pet.

“It is so amazing to find people in our community that will love on and take care of our boys as if they were their own. Ashley and her family spoiled our boys and they were worn out when they got home. Thank you so much for being amazing sitters.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a great experience with Andrea’s dog boarding service! My dog really enjoyed the stay. Andrea was very responsive and even accommodated an extra day on short notice, which we truly appreciated. Highly recommended—thank you, Andrea!”
“Wendy was absolutely fantastic with my our dog while I was away for a couple of days. She was incredibly communicative and sent frequent picture and video updates, which gave us total peace of mind. You can genuinely tell how much she loves dogs and cares for them like her own. I highly recommend booking with Wendy she's amazing!!!”
“Mariah was such a sweet hostess for our pup! She was incredibly responsive, sent photos, and seemed to genuinely love on our dog. Our dog was also obsessed with Mariah’s dog. Such a great experience- we will be rebooking!”
“I had an excellent experience with Johnny! He was incredibly friendly, kept me updated with great communication throughout my dog's stay, and made me feel completely at ease. It was clear my dog was well cared for and treated with kindness. The biggest sign of how wonderful the experience was? My dog came home happy, relaxed, and with absolutely no anxiety (like he usually does at other boarding places). I couldn't have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust him to care for my dog again. Highly recommend!”
“Susan was amazing with Cookie! 🐶❤️ This was my first time leaving him with a sitter, and she made me feel completely comfortable. She sent me lots of pictures and updates, and I could tell Cookie was happy and very well cared for. She was so sweet and attentive with my little baby. I’m so happy we found her and will definitely be using her again. I highly recommend Susan! 🐾”
“Angelo was very responsive and caring. Loved seeing the updates given from him, the dogs looked so happy in every photo received. Angelo also took his time in the beginning to ask questions about the dogs which I highly appreciated.”
“I absolutely love CJ staying with Thi, he loves it and you can see in his pics he is having a good time! It’s like a treat for him and a break for me ❤️ we’ll be back!!!”
“At the last minute Ali sustained an injury. I was afraid that Irma may not be equipped to or may not want to deal with it on such short notice but I was wrong. Irma assured me that it wasn’t a problem and she was true to her word, everything was perfect! She took care of my Ali like she would her own puppy. She sent me pictures all weekend as well as a report on how he was feeling a couple times a day. I truly appreciate the care she provided and will definitely use her again! Irma is the best! Additionally, her puppy and mine are now #Besties❤️”
“I will definitely be a returning client with them! I work at an emergency animal hospital so you can imagine the horror stories I see of careless pet sitters. But Shawn and Alexis both gave me the closure and ensured that my babies would be cared for and while I was out of town, I alap appreciated all of the pictures and updates Alexis would send. I also loved how she would go outside with them and play instead of just leaving them out alone. My babies were well taken care of and if I need any other services they will definitely be my first choice!! Thank you again Shawn and Alexis for your amazing care!!!”
“Keliann was wonderful with our baby girl, Daella! We went on vacation and didn't want to leave our furbaby home alone in fear of her feeling lonesome. Thanks to Keliann and the way she boards, Daella got to socialize and get the attention she's been accustomed to. Highly recommended!”
“Kathryn was wonderful with our dog while we were on vacation! Communication was great—she sent daily updates and lots of videos, which we really appreciated. Our dog has some separation anxiety and she was incredibly patient and caring with him. It was clear he was being well looked after. We’d absolutely book with her again.”
“Brandon is my new favorite dog sitter and I am thrilled. He and his partner Rhonda were wonderful to meet, very welcoming to Stella and me in their home. Brandon was noticeably helpful in my communications with him; easy-going during my search for a sitter and also at drop-off. He was especially excellent with daily contact to show me photos and to share notes about her status; it was a grand surprise to hear from him within just a few hours after drop-off. I have complete confidence in his professional skills and attitude. I’m crossing my fingers that he will be available each time Stella needs a pet-sitter in the future.”
“Finally, our pup Apawlo found a second home. Roland is awesome, we received regular updates and took care of Apawlo better than we would have taken care of him We will be regulars”
