This is a 5-Wag doggie hotel! Seriously, the accommodations are clean and homey, with individual decks in the runs and a resort pool to splash in. Daily walks within the fenced acreage make it a great place for dogs who like the great outdoors. The kennel clubhouse is air conditioned and very comfy. Beds are provided but Julie was flexible and welcomed the favored blankies and toys we brought. My very skittish dog Missy actually allowed some petting during the stay, a real testament to Julie’s sincere affection for the dogs in her care. I can heartily recommend her services and will use her again!

Jennifer & her family have been amazing with looking after our girl Yara, and making her feel right at home in their house. She has been flexible with drop off & pick up times, and also keeping us well informed with pics and videos. She has also been accommodating to our dog’s particular behavior needs (food aggression) and adjusted so everyone stays safe and comfortable! We already have more dates on the calendar with her and will be booking more!

Our Sheltie, Buddy, stayed with Christina for two nights while we were out of town and he received excellent and loving care during his stay with her! She has two sweet dogs and Buddy thoroughly enjoyed have a couple of friends to hang out with while he was there :) Christina has a beautiful home with lots of outdoor space for the dogs to play. During Buddy's stay, Christina kept me updated with texts and pictures and she even sent an adorable video of Buddy playing with her dogs. I highly recommend Christina and will definitely book her for dog boarding in the future. Buddy gives her four paws up :)

Erica was amazing! She kindly took on Bruce with no complaints even though he was a puppy. She kept me updated everyday and sent numerous photos for me to view which helped us stress less about leaving Bruce after just welcoming him into our family not too long ago. Erica is well prepped with toys, snacks, and play areas for any cat or dog and I highly recommend her for your pup or kitty!

We could not be more happy with our puppy's stay with Heather!! She kept us up to date with pictures and messages the whole time Ivy was in her care and treated her as if she was her own dog! Very flexible with drop off and pick up which was extremely helpful to us as we were traveling and our plans changed a little bit. I could not imagine a better experience!

About: I am an animal lover. I have three dogs of my own, all small rescues. I love big dogs but can’t have them in our tiny house. I am a full time nurse practitioner but take care of animals on my days off. I know how hard it is to find loyal and trustworthy people to care for my animals. That is why I wanted to provide this service. Also, walking and playing with dogs and cats is fun. We also travel and are interested in keeping dogs during travel. My husband and I work together to make sure our dogs are outside regularly throughout the day. I will only be taking appointments on my days off, so my schedule is a little sporadic. For overnight stays, I need to have walked your dogs at least 4-5 times and/or completed a trial of doggy day care to make sure your dog gets along with my personal animals.

Zorro's time with Sarah was incredible! He had a wonderful time. She was very conscientious to make him feel loved and comfortable. Sarah knew this was his first experience with a new sitter and sent pictures and videos to show how happy and content he was. His appetite was good and he slept well through each night. I highly recommend Sarah and will schedule with her again when needed.

They sent regular updates and photos, which put my mind at ease knowing my fur baby was in good hands. I highly recommend Charlene anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. I'll definitely be booking again in the future!

Charlene is terrific! So patient and kind with my two crazy dogs. Couldn’t ask for a better, more loving person to check in on them. She has been more than willing to spend time with my large dog who has terrible anxiety and isn’t great with strangers but he took to her immediately which is how I knew I made the right choice when choosing her as a sitter. So thankful we found her!

About: I'm a lover of all animals, willing to accommodate special hours or instructions, if medications are needed I'm comfortable doing that as well. Have been pet sitting for 10+ years and have yet to meet a dog/pet I don't adore? I'm willing to work with anyone's pet and meet them beforehand to make sure they feel comfortable with me. A pet should always come first so I would want to make sure I can accommodate their needs. I'm a firm believer in in also having a healthy relationship with pet parents and most certainly encourage any questions to make sure your pet and I both be comfortable each other before accepting any job. Please feel free to contact me, I'll answer any questions about myself and background as well as provide references. I am currently a part-time student so my schedule can work around yours. I set my school hours accordingly, therefore it doesn't interfere with the care of your pet. Patience goes a long way when it comes to establishing a connection with a pet. Pets are attached to their owners and some can become sensitive or withdrawn to new people. It's up to me to form a bond with all pets. Most pets I have come across form relationships easily, however there are cases where pets may come with a past. Such as being rescues whose previous owners didn't treat them well . In such cases lots of love, attention and patience would be given on my part to ensure that your pet feels safe.

Her name is Pickles and she is my entire world and I could never see my life without her. I am experienced with more feisty cats because I’ve been clawed many times with my cat so it does not phase me. With more shy cats I like to give them their space and let them come to me if they choose!

About: My journey with pets began at the age of 8 when I welcomed my first furbaby, Fifi, a miniature schnauzer, into my life. Over the past 13 years, she's been my constant companion, now a cherished senior at 13. A dozen years later, I welcomed Letty, an energetic American bully, into our family. Letty's love for play contrasts beautifully with Fifi's penchant for sleep, offering the best of both worlds. My experience extends beyond pet ownership; having worked at an animal clinic, I'm adept at a range of caregiving tasks from cleaning and feeding to administering medication, injections, and grooming needs like nail clipping and anal gland care. I currently work for Amazon in the HR department, I work 4 days out of the week (SUN-WED) from 6:30am to 5:00pm. I am flexible so please let me know what is needed so we could work something out. I offer pet sitting services with a fenced yard and two furry companions to keep your pets company. I am flexible and can accommodate any special needs your pets may have. Prior to their stay, I request a list of your pet's likes and dislikes to ensure their comfort. Additionally, I prioritize exercise, provide nail trims if necessary, and ensure they always have access to water and a comfortable environment. I use to work in an animal clinic for 2 years so if any medication is needed to be given or injections, I am more than happy to do it. Your pet's well-being is my top priority.

This was our first time using Rover. We used him for a daycare day at his home. Ian came to our house for a meet and greet, then we brought Sadie there for a 15 minute meet and greet and then the next day she stayed with him for the day. Seemed like it went well. I was very impressed with Ian’s explanation of the process and his experience in the field. We will try him again, perhaps for an overnight or multi day.

Reliable care, happy pets, and peace of mind for you—that’s my promise.

About: I've always had a deep love for animals, and caring for pets has been a big part of my life. From dogs and cats to chickens and rabbits, I have experience providing attentive care, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, administering medication, or simply offering snuggles, I treat every pet as if they were my own. As a pet-mom to 3 senior dogs, a calico cat as well as chickens, I understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities. I take the time to provide personalized care that keeps tails wagging and purrs coming!! As of right now, I have plenty of availability for petsitting with no other conflicts in my schedule. I am available at short notice as well. I have several unfenced acres for pets to play and explore on! My pets stay on our property but always have leashes for the babies that need it! Our dogs and cat are free to go indoors or outdoors at their leisure. I also have a room available to separate pets if needed. I have the room to bring in crates if your baby uses one.

About: Hi! I’m a dependable, caring pet sitter who treats every pet as if they were my own. I offer drop-in visits, house sitting, and dog walking, and I’m happy to tailor each visit to your pet’s unique needs. Whether that means long walks, playtime, feeding, administering medications, litter box cleaning, or simply keeping your pet company, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs of all ages, temperaments, and energy levels. From playful puppies and active dogs to senior pets and shy or independent cats, I understand that every animal needs a different approach. I’m patient, attentive, and respectful of routines, which helps pets feel at ease in their own home. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. I’m able to provide consistent check-ins, unrushed walks, and attentive in-home care. Because I plan my day around my Rover commitments, I’m reliable with timing, communication, and updates. I always send photos and notes so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.

About: My journey with pets began at the age of 8 when I welcomed my first furbaby, Fifi, a miniature schnauzer, into my life. Over the past 13 years, she's been my constant companion, now a cherished senior at 13. A dozen years later, I welcomed Letty, an energetic American bully, into our family. Letty's love for play contrasts beautifully with Fifi's penchant for sleep, offering the best of both worlds. My experience extends beyond pet ownership; having worked at an animal clinic, I'm adept at a range of caregiving tasks from cleaning and feeding to administering medication, injections, and grooming needs like nail clipping and anal gland care. I currently work for Amazon in the HR department, I work 4 days out of the week (SUN-WED) from 6:30am to 5:00pm. I am flexible so please let me know what is needed so we could work something out. I offer pet sitting services with a fenced yard and two furry companions to keep your pets company. I am flexible and can accommodate any special needs your pets may have. Prior to their stay, I request a list of your pet's likes and dislikes to ensure their comfort. Additionally, I prioritize exercise, provide nail trims if necessary, and ensure they always have access to water and a comfortable environment. I use to work in an animal clinic for 2 years so if any medication is needed to be given or injections, I am more than happy to do it. Your pet's well-being is my top priority.

About: Most of my experience comes from dog-sitting and I have dog sat different ages and breeds! Dogs are such lovable companions and I love taking care of someone’s best friend. Nothing in the world means more to me than a pet’s care and happiness and it definitely shows with who an animal is with! I aspire to be someone your companion(s) Trust and are comfortable with being around! I also wouldn’t mind watering plants if needed 😊 Pet care would be my entire week because I would be doing this full time! Weeks, weekends and sometimes holidays will definitely work for me. I know how it feels to have to trust someone with your baby or babies and the anxiety of if they’re in good hands. My goal is to give you the confidence that they are in the best care and your home is better than you left it!

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was about 10, I’m 21 now. My major is Pre-Veterinary because I’ve had a love for animals and dream of being a vet since I was 7. I have a cat of my own, Luna, and she’s my world. I treat her like a baby so I would love to share the same love to your fur babies! I work full-time as a manager at Walmart, and I’m a full time college student (online). I’m pretty fair and understanding with scheduling, as long as you reach out in advance. If my schedule doesn’t fit for you, I do not mind adjusting to accommodate you and your fur babies! I also don’t have an issue with last minute planning, just be mindful of scheduling issues or certain questions I asks in regards of the service you’ve requested! When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, and get plenty of exercise and attention throughout the day. I also monitor their behavior to make sure they are happy, healthy, and not feeling stressed while their owner is away. As well as in a clients home, I respect your space and specific instructions on pet care! Ensuring your pets and home’s safety is never an issue.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for the almost 7 years. My husband-who also works with me- has been taking care and sitting pets for the last 12 years. We have a beautiful, and energetic kelpie mix named Biscuit, and British shorthair named Eggs. Health and safety are a main priority to both of us. We like to make sure that all dogs in our care are well hydrated, and that no dog is in a situation that makes them nervous. We always make sure to provide the best care for each individual, because this isn’t just an animal, it’s a member of your family, and we know that you would want the best care for your family like we would. Currently I work part time. I am able to look after your wonderful pets full time all days of the week if given a 7 days notice of when services are needed. By ensuring that all equipment is properly secured with taking walks or engaging outdoors with environment or other animals, and that any messes are cleaned, whether it be on the animal or the places they are staying in.

About: Hey! My name is Stefanie and I have been taking care of animals for almost my entire life. I have experience with both cats and dogs and would love to watch your pets for you. I hold myself to the same standards that I would expect from my own pet sitters. I can handle animals of all shapes and sizes, even your giant breeds! I have experience in the veterinary field and have cared for pets with all types of dietary restrictions, medical needs, and temperaments - so if your pet needs some special attention, I'm your gal! I have had dogs for almost my entire life. As a child my family had a Lhasa Apso, and he lived a long and happy life with us. I have had pets of my own since 2014, and all my pups are seniors now - they have a special place in my heart! I also have two sweet young cats and would love to check on your feline kiddos. I am a full time mother so I am readily available for drop in visits, overnights, and walks. Please note that my infant son will be with me during all visits. I will of course assume responsibility for my kiddo being safe around your pets, but please be mindful of your pets' temperament with children when booking! My ideal scenario when caring for your pets is to adopt their current routine - I find that keeps them the happiest while their people are away. I'm happy to visit on whatever schedule is best for you, and I'm happy to do overnights as needed.

About: As a child, my siblings and I raised dogs and cats at our country house. Therein, I spent a large portion of my childhood with animals, where I learned to respect them and appreciate how unique and loveable they can be. I am working part-time, which gives me plenty of time to either check in on your pets, walk them, or spend time with them. I love cats and dogs equally. I have three dogs at home, two of them are big dogs and one of them is small. The first two I mentioned, were rescued as puppies-and so I have a deep appreciation for all types of dogs and cats, despite their pasts. I also have a history with cats, the number of them I cannot say, but I love taking care of them too.

About: While I too enjoy traveling I know how it can be when you can’t take your 4 legged family member(s) with you. I have 2 of my own Lionhead )fluff ball) bunnies of my own. I love fur babies of all breeds, shapes and sizes. While I don't have a dog or cat due to my hubbies allergies. I do love them all. Most of my friends or family have dog(s)/cat(s) and they all seem to love me and want my attention when I visit family and friends. When I 1st moved to Dallas my friend needed someone to let her dog out a couple times of day due to her long work hours. I was there to let Jackie out to potty and socialize. I became his Auntie Robin. Now every time I go to visit my friend he thinks I'm there for him and walk and play time. Of course I do this as he is so loveable I'm happy to go for a walk and play with my fur friend while visiting with my friend. I recently cared for my neighbors large and small dogs, 2 cats and a bird on a last minute need while they went away for the holiday weekend. I did home visit twice a day as requested. I would spend 30-45 minutes at the home as the owners requested. The dogs knew me & I was like family. They were happy to see me. I feed them, played with them, let them out to potty and gave appropriate treats for good behavior. My last day they dogs laid on top of me like I was their family. The dogs also listened to me when it was time to kennel them even though they didn't want to go in they did. I currently volunteer for the past 12 years with a domestic rabbit rescue. I go out to the rescue when I can to help, feed, care for special needs bunnies, clean up them yard/x-pens where the bunnies are housed. I give medication when needed. Including medication by means of oral, drops and shots. Including helping with the rescue I also foster bunnies in my home in addition to my 2 fur babies of lionhead bunnies. One of which can be seen in my pictures. Pet sitting/house sitting is my primary job. I enjoy spoiling my pets along with my clients pets. This makes my clients able to enjoy holiday or work trips without worry. As I make sure to treat the clients pet like my own and give lots of love and care like their human. Every pet not matter if my pet, friends, family or a client is an important part of my life when I’m with them. I make sure they know I’m there for them and I will love and care for them at all times.

About: I'm a lover of all animals, willing to accommodate special hours or instructions, if medications are needed I'm comfortable doing that as well. Have been pet sitting for 10+ years and have yet to meet a dog/pet I don't adore? I'm willing to work with anyone's pet and meet them beforehand to make sure they feel comfortable with me. A pet should always come first so I would want to make sure I can accommodate their needs. I'm a firm believer in in also having a healthy relationship with pet parents and most certainly encourage any questions to make sure your pet and I both be comfortable each other before accepting any job. Please feel free to contact me, I'll answer any questions about myself and background as well as provide references. I am currently a part-time student so my schedule can work around yours. I set my school hours accordingly, therefore it doesn't interfere with the care of your pet. Patience goes a long way when it comes to establishing a connection with a pet. Pets are attached to their owners and some can become sensitive or withdrawn to new people. It's up to me to form a bond with all pets. Most pets I have come across form relationships easily, however there are cases where pets may come with a past. Such as being rescues whose previous owners didn't treat them well . In such cases lots of love, attention and patience would be given on my part to ensure that your pet feels safe.

I’ve been entrusted to walk, feed, play, & groom pets of friends and neighbors, and Lola got along with all of them. Keeping them on a routine was fine. I was able to teach Lola many commands using verbal and hand gestures. Discipline and routine is something I enforce so that the pups don’t get restless energy with new changes.❤️ Lola has recently passed away, so my availability has opened much more. I am a personal chef and build my own schedule. I recently moved back to Corsicana area and am happy to meet new pets & clients. I make sure to be on time and keeping the dog in routine and discipline that has been established by you and yours. I can crate your pet. I can cuddle with them too! I’m a super affectionate care taker.

About: I've been around dogs my whole life. From large breeds such as Great Pyrenees, to small but mighty dogs like Chihuahua's and Jack Russells. I've helped in training our German Shepherd through his fear based reactivity, and raised a Labrador puppy all on my own. I specialize in using positive training, so I don't mind if your dog doesn't have the best leash manners. I may be small in stature, but I can handle large dogs too! I am not currently employed outside of Rover, so i am available almost 24/7. I love dogs and want to spend as much time with them as possible! I have three crazy, hyper, but smart dogs who love to play fetch and tug! They all have been trained using positive training methods, and all of them are lovers.

Lainey was happy and well taken care of! She was kind of pooped from all the play with Bobbi's other dogs, which is great! I definitely recommend Bobbi!

This is a 5-Wag doggie hotel! Seriously, the accommodations are clean and homey, with individual decks in the runs and a resort pool to splash in. Daily walks within the fenced acreage make it a great place for dogs who like the great outdoors. The kennel clubhouse is air conditioned and very comfy. Beds are provided but Julie was flexible and welcomed the favored blankies and toys we brought. My very skittish dog Missy actually allowed some petting during the stay, a real testament to Julie’s sincere affection for the dogs in her care. I can heartily recommend her services and will use her again!

Our Sheltie, Buddy, stayed with Christina for two nights while we were out of town and he received excellent and loving care during his stay with her! She has two sweet dogs and Buddy thoroughly enjoyed have a couple of friends to hang out with while he was there :) Christina has a beautiful home with lots of outdoor space for the dogs to play. During Buddy's stay, Christina kept me updated with texts and pictures and she even sent an adorable video of Buddy playing with her dogs. I highly recommend Christina and will definitely book her for dog boarding in the future. Buddy gives her four paws up :)

We could not be more happy with our puppy's stay with Heather!! She kept us up to date with pictures and messages the whole time Ivy was in her care and treated her as if she was her own dog! Very flexible with drop off and pick up which was extremely helpful to us as we were traveling and our plans changed a little bit. I could not imagine a better experience!

Zorro's time with Sarah was incredible! He had a wonderful time. She was very conscientious to make him feel loved and comfortable. Sarah knew this was his first experience with a new sitter and sent pictures and videos to show how happy and content he was. His appetite was good and he slept well through each night. I highly recommend Sarah and will schedule with her again when needed.

Charlene took great care of our puppy, Lola, while I was away. It's clear that they have a genuine love for animals, and Lola seemed so happy and comfortable in their care. They sent regular updates and photos, which put my mind at ease knowing my fur baby was in good hands. I highly recommend Charlene anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. I'll definitely be booking again in the future!

I cannot wait to meet and take care of your fur babies :) I am currently in nursing school only taking up 2 to 3 days a week. I am now available for boarding at my home so feel free to look into that as well!! I make sure that the bowls are always full, or their food has been given on time along with medication if needed. I also make sure they are getting as much outside time as they can get.
