“Stephanie is a life saver! I truly feel comfortable with Milo staying with her and enjoy the pictures that seem to come at the right time. Milo runs to the door with excitement when we pull up to Stephanie’s house. Will definitely be back!!”
“We had a last-minute boarding request around Christmas, and Newana and her family were incredibly kind and accommodating in accepting my German Shepherd. From the start, the coordination was smooth and hassle-free. Newana kept us at ease by sending regular updates and photos, and she made sure my pup got his walks and plenty of care and attention. It was clear he was comfortable and well looked after in a friendly, family-like environment. We’re very thankful to Newana for stepping in during a busy holiday time and taking such good care of our German Shepherd. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and easy-to-work-with host on Rover!”
“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!”
“I can't thank Aldrin and Teresa enough for taking such excellent care of my baby, Alphy, on such short notice. I had to make a last-minute day trip to Dallas for a family emergency, and they made the entire process so easy and stress-free. I was a bit concerned that Alphy would be a handful since he’s such a high energy dog, but Aldrin and Teresa are incredibly kind, attentive, and accommodating, and Alphy had a blast playing and burning off all that energy! When I picked him up, he was happy, tired, and clearly well-loved. It’s evident that they truly care for the dogs they watch. I highly recommend Aldrin and Teresa to anyone looking for a reliable, loving place for their pet.”
“Being our first time leaving Milo, we were nervous how well it would go..but they were kind, patient, and reassuring. Milo was well taken care of, made friends, got to play and have fun. It was awesome to get pics of him having a great time while we were gone! Thank you!!”
“We were nervous considering this would have been the first time leaving our dog. Mark was wonderful; he allowed us to dona test visit with Gambit and see how thing would go. Our dog had a wonderful time and was very comfortable; maybe a little too comfortable I wasnt sure he’d want to come back. Definitely would recommend.”
“Randa and Phil were so great! We always hesitate leaving our sweet dog, and they loved him like family! He was so happy when we picked him up. And we really appreciated the pictures and communication while we were away. We will absolutely send our Gus to stay with Randa and Phil again!”
“Cecilia and her family were absolutely AMAZING! They treated Bailey like their own, sent lots of pictures, and were very communicative. I would rebook with her every single time I need as long as she’s available and would absolutely recommend her!”
“Patrick & Dusty were absolutely amazing with my girl Pup 🐾💛 From the moment I dropped her off, I could tell she was in great hands. They treated her like family, kept me updated, and made sure she was comfortable, happy, and loved the entire time. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was being cared for by people who genuinely love what they do. I highly recommend Patrick & Dusty to anyone looking for trustworthy, kind, and attentive sitters. I will definitely be booking with them again! 🐶✨”
“Lynda is THE BEST! I didn’t worry AT ALL with my Triplets being in the care of someone for the first time for two whole weeks! I think they didn’t want to leave her house!”
“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.”
“Maci was amazing! I just moved to town and was hesitant on having to find a new sitter for my baby, but she took all of those worries away. She truly cares about the well being of your fur baby, which is so comforting. Getting the updates and pictures was really reassuring. She will always be my go to person whenever I need a sitter!”
“Zachary and Khristien took care of my 2 babies this past weekend. At first I was nervous since my dogs haven't been around other dogs before and wasn't sure how they would react, but they handled it really well. Communication is key for me and they were on point with that. I received daily pictures and updates on my babies. I could tell they were well taken care for by they way they behaved when I picked them up and when we got home. Very pleasant people to work with. Will definetly rebook.”
“This was my first time using Rover and Krystin was amazing helping me every step of the way. I had several changes on my reservation and she was very flexible. She sent updates and pictures of joey. Thank you for all your help Krystin!”
“My dog seemed very happy and well cared for with Soma and her family. I am glad she only takes one client at a time and has one little dog of her own. I will definitely use her again.❤”
“Linda and her family are the best! She had my Roxie, whom I’ve never left with anyone other than family for 11 days while we went to Hawaii. Linda sent me updates everyday with photos keeping in mind the 5 hour time difference! She listened to all my absurd request and beyond while having Roxie as a guest in her home. I felt so comfortable on my trip knowing Roxie was in very capable hands. We will definitely be using Linda and her family again. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs someone to watch their fur babies.”
“Lili was very pleasant during our booking interaction and even more pleasant at our 1st meeting. My dog (Truffles) had never been away from home nor around other dogs; however, she ensured my dog had smooth transition to both her home and her pets. She greeted us each day with pictures of Truffles, which gave us more assurance that he was in a happy place. I would most definitely use her as a sitter again, and I highly recommend her services.”

“My two fur babies did great with Jessica! I had a lot of confidence in her, from the initial “meet and greet” to see how she interacted with my kitties and review expectations/her personality, to our follow-up communication, and with the pictures of my cats she included in her drop-in visit pet reports. My more skittish cat even did well by coming out to interact with her during visits, which helped to put my mind at ease. In addition to all these nice dog related reviews, I recommend her to watch your cat(s) and I would use her in the future :~D.”
“Stephanie did an impeccable job! She is very honest and trustworthy. She was on time and very dependable. She left detailed notes and took photos. I will definitely use her again!”
“Ariana is great. She is always very respectful of my home and great with my dogs while I'm at work. It gives me peace of mind that they get a chance to go outside and get some playtime.”
About: We always had cats as a family and have been lucky enough to have them live for long wonderful lives. We love kittens and adult cats and understand cats need time to trust. My son adores cats and understands to be gentle and slow. At this time we can come to your cats home for care.
“McKenzie was awesome. She was attentive, great with our cat and provided the care he needed while we were away. We would definitely recommend her and use her again.”
“Maci was wonderful! She is highly communicative and always let me know whenever she was on her way to my house. She followed all instructions perfectly and provided regular updates complete with text and photos, which gave me total peace of mind. My cats look like they were well taken care of while I was away. Highly recommended!”
“Gary was great with Lilith! I could tell that she had a really fun time playing with him. I got so many good pictures from Gary and he was very communicative and responsive. Definitely recommend him to anyone and will keep his contact for when we need him in the future.”
About: I have grown up in a house that always had animals in it, especially dogs and cats. I have a few clients that I have been watching houses for— for years, I believe in making connections with your clients pets so there is no worry or stress between the pet parent and pet! I have lots of open free time as I am a freelance artist that works from home! So, in other words, I have my availability mostly open just need to have time to schedule I would be more comfortable in house sitting than boarding animals but for my own pets they are always inside, free roaming, only going outside when the dogs need to go potty!
“It was the first time with Leslie. Leslie has been a beautiful surprise. She was always in time and her reports were complete whit a nice photos. I have felt calm whit her. We’ll choose Leslie again. Thank Leslie”
“Aimee did a great job caring for my cat, Mister. He turned out to be quite vocal when we left him, but she was very patient and kind to him. Thank you Aimee for giving us the opportunity to take our trip and not worry about him! We appreciate you (and your daughter) 😊!”
“Taylor was such a wonderful sitter for our kitties! She always left detailed reports and sent us lots of cute pictures of our babies. We are very grateful that she took the time to play with and love on our very snuggly/needy cats. Clearly they felt very safe with her! We highly recommend Taylor if you’re looking for a sitter who will really love your animals for you.”

Will absolutely call on Hannah again for help next time we’re out of town!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs since I was very young. Both our family pups have passed on through the rainbow bridge, while we miss them we are taking a break after 15 years of being dog owners. I love dogs and am a dog person. I have worked with the arlington animal shelter & search one rescue’s weekly training. One of life's greatest feelings is the love of an animal. I work for a nonprofit organization as a life coach within the Dallas school system, so my schedule closely follows school hours and holidays. This provides me with a consistent routine and flexibility outside of school times. I’m available most weekends and love incorporating daily outings and activities around the DFW area to keep pets active, engaged, and happy. I have a fenced in yard. Experience with dog crating. During the summer months I limit my personal pups’ time outdoors. We keep the animals in the first room from the front door with baby gates which is a large area we use for dining.
About: I’ve rescued my dog 15 years ago and fell in love with dogs ever since. My baby Galaxy recently passed from old age. I now have my brother’s dog named Bella. Please make sure your dogs are up-to-date on flee and tick meds to prevent it from being in my house and backyard. No cats due to allergies. Please provide food, bowls, leash, and beds. I can play with them in the backyard and take them for frequent walks. I have a house that is an open floor plan great for them to walk around. The house is fenced and can very well be perfect for dog sitting. The area is nice for walks. I do have 1 dog cage, if needed. I also have a bird. May as well be a zoo 😂
“Maci was great! Took really great care of my Trunks. She was so sweet even with I had to change his pick up time. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely want her to watch him again.”
“Cooper enjoyed his time with Joshua and his wife, he had fun with the pugs! Joshua was very quick in responding to messages and made us feel at ease leaving Cooper with them.”
“Kriystin was great! Good communication & knew our pup was in good care. Theo was excited to visit the 2nd time! This was a great sign on how much he enjoyed his first stay. We'll definitely be visiting Krystin again :)”
“Teresa was the sweetest person. I loved just how communicative she was and her quick responses whenever I needed to reach out or ask questions. I could tell just how much she loves dogs from her reaction when she saw Molly. Knew instantly Molly would be in good hands. I got to meet and interact with their two dogs Yuzu and Remy a little bit when I dropped Molly off and both were absolutely awesome. Very well behaved and sweet pups. Gave me full confidence they were great owners and treated their dogs very well. I had to book this last minute because something came up and Teresa was very receptive and understanding. No hassle at all needing to look after Molly on such short notice. Can't recommend them enough!”
“This was my first time leaving my puppy with a sitter. Mijo had a great time. I appreciate the photos and videos that were sent showing how well he was being taking care of. Mijo enjoyed running around in the spacious backyard with the other pups. Marc was very nice and very accommodating. I appreciate him taking such good care of Mijo. I would definitely use him again. Thanks Marc.”

“Sierra is amazing and so patient and caring! Even though my puppy is a tough cookie (very guarded and resistant to new connections), I can tell that she enjoyed herself and was warming up. The environment is very inviting and fun, both inside and out. I’m looking forward to her getting more comfortable. Will book again!”
“Lucyna was wonderful. My pup, Sophie, has plenty of experience with Rover hosts and Lucyna is tops! Sophie was excited to go back each morning during her four-day, doggy daycare stays.

I always treat other dogs and cats including stray animals as if they are my own. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets.

I have two friendly dogs of my own—an 8-year-old female and a 14-year-old male—who are calm and used to being around people and other pets. I keep my dogs’ vaccinations up to date and can provide that information for transparency and safety. For overnight stays or visits, I ask that owners provide their dog’s food, leash, bed, and any specific items their pet is used to, as well as shampoo if a bath is requested. For everyone’s safety, pets should be up-to-date on important vaccinations, especially rabies and routine deworming. Dogs in my care receive plenty of attention, walks, and playtime. Pets are welcome on the bed or couch as long as they are vaccinated, trained, and comfortable. I also send updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are safe and happy.

About: My name is Cecilia, aka Ceci. I've cared for animals most of my life. In early 2024, my pup crossed the rainbow bridge and has left an emptiness in our home and I'm hoping to honor him by caring and spoiling others pets just like him. I have a flexible schedule with my current occupation, therefore I'll be able to prioritize pets when come by for a visit or have them in my home. I have a fenced yard and lovely neighborhood for plenty of walks. They will be taken care of like family. Plenty of attention to give.
“Sadia was fabulous. I texted about setting up a meet & greet for my 3 year old pup & she got back to me on availability almost immediately! When she came over she was enthusiastic which my dog really enjoyed, she asked great questions & was 100% down to help out with little things like changing the water bowl. When I booked a walk she double checked with me on times & was willing to answer any extra questions I had. I know she is newer to ROVER, but she is a great candidate. Will book again!”
About: I love animals and interacting with them. I have experience with dogs as large as Great Danes and as small as Chihuahuas.

I can promise that your pet will be well taken care of I currently work from home and can do a house sitting at your home any day of the week with enough heads up. All I need is a private home WiFi and I am good to go. Happy to accommodate any needs of your pet like medications or extra cuddles to help with anxiety. At this time I cannot pet sit at my own home, but I am available most of the day besides occasional work meetings and doctors appointments

“We had a last-minute boarding request around Christmas, and Newana and her family were incredibly kind and accommodating in accepting my German Shepherd. From the start, the coordination was smooth and hassle-free. Newana kept us at ease by sending regular updates and photos, and she made sure my pup got his walks and plenty of care and attention. It was clear he was comfortable and well looked after in a friendly, family-like environment. We’re very thankful to Newana for stepping in during a busy holiday time and taking such good care of our German Shepherd. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and easy-to-work-with host on Rover!”
“I can't thank Aldrin and Teresa enough for taking such excellent care of my baby, Alphy, on such short notice. I had to make a last-minute day trip to Dallas for a family emergency, and they made the entire process so easy and stress-free. I was a bit concerned that Alphy would be a handful since he’s such a high energy dog, but Aldrin and Teresa are incredibly kind, attentive, and accommodating, and Alphy had a blast playing and burning off all that energy! When I picked him up, he was happy, tired, and clearly well-loved. It’s evident that they truly care for the dogs they watch. I highly recommend Aldrin and Teresa to anyone looking for a reliable, loving place for their pet.”
“Being our first time leaving Milo, we were nervous how well it would go..but they were kind, patient, and reassuring. Milo was well taken care of, made friends, got to play and have fun. It was awesome to get pics of him having a great time while we were gone! Thank you!!”
“We were nervous considering this would have been the first time leaving our dog. Mark was wonderful; he allowed us to dona test visit with Gambit and see how thing would go. Our dog had a wonderful time and was very comfortable; maybe a little too comfortable I wasnt sure he’d want to come back. Definitely would recommend.”
“Randa and Phil were so great! We always hesitate leaving our sweet dog, and they loved him like family! He was so happy when we picked him up. And we really appreciated the pictures and communication while we were away. We will absolutely send our Gus to stay with Randa and Phil again!”
“Cecilia and her family were absolutely AMAZING! They treated Bailey like their own, sent lots of pictures, and were very communicative. I would rebook with her every single time I need as long as she’s available and would absolutely recommend her!”
“Patrick & Dusty were absolutely amazing with my girl Pup 🐾💛 From the moment I dropped her off, I could tell she was in great hands. They treated her like family, kept me updated, and made sure she was comfortable, happy, and loved the entire time. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was being cared for by people who genuinely love what they do. I highly recommend Patrick & Dusty to anyone looking for trustworthy, kind, and attentive sitters. I will definitely be booking with them again! 🐶✨”
“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.”
“Maci was amazing! I just moved to town and was hesitant on having to find a new sitter for my baby, but she took all of those worries away. She truly cares about the well being of your fur baby, which is so comforting. Getting the updates and pictures was really reassuring. She will always be my go to person whenever I need a sitter!”
“Zachary and Khristien took care of my 2 babies this past weekend. At first I was nervous since my dogs haven't been around other dogs before and wasn't sure how they would react, but they handled it really well. Communication is key for me and they were on point with that. I received daily pictures and updates on my babies. I could tell they were well taken care for by they way they behaved when I picked them up and when we got home. Very pleasant people to work with. Will definetly rebook.”
“This was my first time using Rover and Krystin was amazing helping me every step of the way. I had several changes on my reservation and she was very flexible. She sent updates and pictures of joey. Thank you for all your help Krystin!”
“Yesenia is awesome! I let stay my dog at doggy-hotels before, but I could tell that she was not happy when I picked her up. Yesenia maintained communication with me throughout and took very good care of my dog. I could tell that my dog had a good time and was comfortable. Definitely, I recommend her to anybody!”
“We needed an extended stay for our dog because we were getting back into town later than expected, and Lucyna was very accommodating and great as usual!!! We LOVE having our dog stay with her and her dog, they mesh really well!! Upon pick up, our dog was so excited and looked really sad to leave at the same time!!!...when we were in the car to go home, she literally stared at Lucyna’s house for a good minute!! as if she was Not ready to come home yet haaah!! Lucyna!!! Cookie really Misses You All!!! We can’t Thank You Enough for caring for our dog the way you did!!! Oh btw, like you said, “she will be tired,” sure enough she got home and laid down to rest☺️! You’re the Best Lucyna!! See you when we need you again!!! Thank YOU!!!”
“Jonathan is AMAZING! He took such great care of my little ball of nervous energy, Lily. Such great communication…daily video updates and photos. Lil is very high strung in new environments and was accustomed to her previous sitter of 5 years. Jonathan handled her with ease. We definitely found our new go to person. Thank you Jonathan!”
About: We are your fur baby’s home away from home! This is an animal-loving, family home with an animal loving boy, a cuddle loving lazy old lady Pittie, a vibrant and playful lab mix, and a sweet old cat. We would love to care for your fur baby and treat them just like ours. Meets and greet are required before stay is booked so we both feel comfortable and can ensure our home is the perfect fit for your baby. My son would be a part of pet cat and accompany me to any pet visits or drop ins. My husband or I can provide pick up/drop off for an additional fee. ALL boarders are required to be on flea treatment and current on shots. Your fur baby will have a fenced in yard, an opportunity for walks and lots of playtime with our family and our dogs. Check us out! We have a mixed schedule working in and out of the home. We have a mix of crated and free roaming dogs. We have lots of play and walk time in the afternoons and evenings. We are able to schedule and devote time to visits in the afternoons and evenings during the week and are flexible on weekends. We are also open to caring for small caged animals for an additional fee (hamsters & guinea pigs). We have a fenced in yard, an animal love kid, and a playful young dog who loves to play with other dogs. She is a large dog but is gentle with dogs of all sizes (she has a pug bestie). Our older dog is not a huge player but is happy to zoom around the yard and coexist along side new dogs. We have one additional crate that can be used for a medium sized dog and have space to provide quiet spaces or spots in the middle of the action to our guests.
