“Erika did an excellent job watching after our Peppercorn. Regular photo and video updates and our dog had plenty of other dogs to play with throughout her stay.”
“Aimee was great as always with our little fluffball. She went above and beyond to take care of Coda as well as provide a fun, playful space for him to play with other fur pals who also joined him during the holiday. Coda is definitely missing his fun crew for sure! Until next time!”
“Christine & Colin were great! We got lots of pictures and updates, and and they took the time to get to know her personality and needs. All of which gave us great peace of mind!”
“Lilia is an amazing dog sitter! She sent tons of pictures of our pups playing, walking and cuddling. They looked so happy! When we got them back they were in great moods and we could tell they’d gotten enough exercise. We would have Lilia watch them again anytime!!! Thank you, Lilia!”
“This was my first time using Rui with our two dogs. This has been an overall great experience for her services. She was overly communicative and gave daily updates on the dogs. Would use her again in the future.”
“I always feel so comfortable leaving my dog with Marissa. I have a senior pup, and she is great about giving medication, texting me with updates, and providing the extra attention and care he needs.”
“Sarah is great! She was communicative and took great care of my dog. I got daily updates and photos of them playing, lounging and snuggling. Knowing my dog was safe and being cared for while I was away was great peace of mind.”
“Zoe and David are the best! They give my dog lots of TLC and keep me up to date of how he is doing. I always know Tucker is in the best of care whenever he stays with them.”
“Alice was amazing! She was very thorough, sent check ins throughout the day, and was very responsive! We had a brief playdate prior to make sure our pup Beaux got along well with her pup Corrah. The next day at drop off, Beaux happily went with Alice giving us a peace of mind that he felt happy and safe with her! Beaux clearly loved his time with Alice and Corrah. We will definitely be working with her again!”
“I had the best experience with Wilson and Jessica! They were super communicative, and made me feel great about leaving my dog with them for 5 days. I got tons of photos and felt reassured that she was cared for and loved. Highly recommend!”
“This was our 1st time booking with Jen. After our initial meet and greet, I could tell she was going to be a good fit. Jen was amazing with our little senior dog! She took such great care of him. She kept him active, curious and happy. Her photo and video updates were super cute and appreciated. He got along just fine with her small dogs and made new friends. Jen is such a dog lover and her attention and care for them are really impressive. I’m so glad we found her.”
“Barbara took the absolute best care of my dog. This was my first time using Rover and I was definitely a little apprehensive to leave my previous baby with her but she is an experienced dog sitter and made my dog feel right at home. I also greatly appreciated all the pics she sent me everyday. Highly recommend Barbara!”
“Denise was excellent! She took Waffles in last minute when I was in a pinch and sent me several photo updates. I was afraid Waffles wouldn’t want to come home! Highly recommend Denise!”
“The best Rovers in Austin. They always go above and beyond with their care, and I have absolute trust in letting them watch our pup. I will always choose Cassandra and Jason first, if they are available!”
“I haven’t used Rover in a while as I have a regular sitter now, but the rare time they are unavailable I was quite nervous coming back on Rover again. I’m SO glad I found Sam on here! He was so responsive, made sure to provide me consistent updates and followed my instructions perfectly. Petey (my dog) absolutely enjoyed staying with Sam, I could tell - so I will be using his services again.”
“Madeline was a great sitter. My little girl was nervous and not too happy with me for leaving her for a week but Madeline did everything she could to make Olive comfortable and happy. She was communicative and responsive. By the end of Olive’s stay she was feeling right at home! Thank you!”
“Super responsive during pre-booking. Great communication during boarding. Easy drop off and pick up. Convenient, central location, too. Our pup came back happy and healthy, couldn't ask for more!”
“Joel gave daily updates on my dogs and was sweet about doing slow introductions with my dogs and his cats. Very communicative and’s easy to work with for drop off and pick up. It also helps that he works from home because my dog can be quite anxious and I also appreciate that he only watched my dogs, so I didn’t have to be nervous about what may happen with other rover dogs as well. Will book again. Thank you Joel!”
“Kristina watched my dog while I was out of town for a few days. Her response time was quick and we set up a time for our pets to meet and make sure it was a good fit. Her and her dog are so sweet and friendly! She sent updates and pictures over the entire stay. It was an easy drop off/pick up. She took great care of my dog and he seemed to love his time with her. Highly recommend Kristina for your pet watching needs!”

“William was flexible and easy to communicate with when we booked him last minute for a holiday trip out of town. We had just moved back to Austin, so it was a relief to find someone close on such short notice. He was great with our 3 cats and sent plenty of updates. I will definitely book with him again!”
“Allie was great and responsive! She helped me out on a short notice and took good care of my fur baby. I’m very grateful for her and the work she did, would highly recommend!”
“Brandy was great! She played with our social kitty and our shy cat came out after a day which she normally takes way longer to warm up. Brandy was communicative and helpful and we will definitely be using her services again”
“As always, Rachel takes exceptional care of Mochi. She’s incredibly thoughtful and genuinely cares for our cat’s well-being. Her daily updates are meaningful and reassuring, and we truly value being able to count on her 🤩”
“This is our 2nd time booking Marsha for our kitty Richard Parker while we were out of town for the weekend, and she is wonderful! Richard Parker loves her and she takes care of him so well! As I mentioned in my last review, I will totally book her again!! Thank you so much Marsha!! ❤️❤️❤️”

“Mya was absolutely amazing with my cat! She communicated with me throughout the entire stay, followed every instruction perfectly, and gave me so much peace of mind while I was away.

I would recommend Maya to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you again, Mya—I truly appreciate everything you did!”
“Nina was wonderful with my pets! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure everything went smoothly. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for animals. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!”

“Joy was SO attentive with my cat. She was very communicative and send amazing photos everyday and kept mama happy and purring the whole time. 10/10 would definitely book again!”
“Natalie was awesome! Theo loved spending time with her while I was away for the holidays. She made sure to go above and beyond cleaning his food bowl so that he had a fresh dish to eat from while I was away. She also played with him daily and gave him extra snuggles and left a report card during the visit which I really appreciated as a pet parent away from home. We’d love to have Natalie back again to watch Theo in the future!”
“Julia is a pet expert. My cat loves interacting with her, and he has done all the tasks perfectly! Definitely recommend contacting her when you have travel plans and need someone to take care of your cat! 😻”
“Sydney was so wonderful to work with! She took care of my two kitties, one of which is an anxious girl & requires medicine twice a day. She took care of my anxious baby and administered the meds on time like a pro. Super communicative and made me feel so secure that my kitties were taken care of :) Will definitely book again!”
“Claire did an excellent job taking care of my cat! She was extremely communicative, friendly, and showed so much love to my pet! When I came home, the litter box was perfectly cleaned and my cat was calm and happy! Highly recommend her for cat care :)”

“Jen took great care of my little best friend! He was excited to arrive and meet the dogs of the house and they were excited to meet him! It is immediately obvious that Jen is a bone-a-fied (pun intended) Dog Person!”
“Elizabeth and Adrian were absolutely amazing with Nala! From the moment we dropped her off, we knew she was in great hands. They were caring, attentive, and made sure she felt comfortable and loved throughout her daycare stay. Nala had an absolute blast, especially making a new furry best friend, Niki! It was so heartwarming to see how much fun she had playing, socializing, and coming home happy and tired after a full day of adventures. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of our girl. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we’ll definitely be booking with you again. Highly recommend Elizabeth and Adrian to anyone looking for kind, trustworthy, and loving pet caregivers!”
“Great experience overall. Aimee is personable, communicative, and clearly cares about the dogs she watches. I feel safe leaving my dogs with her and will definitely be coming back!”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I have experience with a wide range of breeds, personalities, and energy levels — from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and comfort. I understand that every dog is different, and I always make it a priority to help them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their routine, I’ll make sure they get the attention and care they deserve. I am currently a college student with a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to focus on walks, drop-ins, play sessions, and quality care for your pets. I’m dependable, attentive, and always happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I’m especially mindful of dogs who may feel nervous in new environments or around new people. I take the time to learn each dog’s personality, routine, and needs so they can feel as relaxed and happy as possible during our time together. I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, and any special needs. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment, and I make sure pets are always supervised. I’m attentive to behavior and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you feel confident your pet is in good hands.
“Kristina took excellent care of both of my dogs, they came home happy and tired from playing! I would definitely trust Kristina with them again. Thank you so much for your care and attention to them.”
“Caroline did an amazing job caring for our puppy, Millie. She has a large yard space too that Millie enjoyed. Will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!”
“Willow had a great time playing with the other pups and was well taken care of by Erika. I got photo and video updates during her stay. Communication was great and response time was very fast. Erika was flexible for us even when our plans changed and we had to pick up Willow early.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have cared for over five dogs of different sizes, breeds, and ages with my family. From playful puppies to sweet senior dogs, I understand how to adapt to each dog’s unique needs and personality. I love spending time playing, walking, and giving dogs the attention they deserve. Whether it’s belly rubs, outdoor play, or quiet company, I’ll make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and happy! Besides dogs, I love all animals! I have had bunnies and birds before and know how to take care of them! I work remotely full-time, which which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout their stay. My daily routine is flexible, so I’m able to accommodate feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, cuddle time, medication routines, and regular check-ins. I like to keep each pet’s routine as close as possible to what they are used to at home. Whether they need active play, quiet company, extra patience, or a calm space to relax, I do my best to adjust my day around their comfort and needs! I live in a spacious apartment that offers plenty of room for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and well supervised! I got my two friendly American Shorthair cats at home, so I’m very mindful about introductions, boundaries, and each pet’s comfort level. I always take time to understand how each pet does around other animals! If a pet needs their own space, quiet time, or a slower introduction, I make sure they have a calm area where they can relax. I keep the environment clean, organized, and peaceful so every pet feels cared for during their stay!
About: I have experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I provide a safe, loving environment with a fully fenced backyard for supervised play and exercise. I follow each pet's routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and special care instructions. I treat every dog like family and provide regular photo updates so owners can feel confident and connected while they're away. Pet care fits well into my daily routine as I have a flexible schedule and spend a lot of time at home. I can provide regular attention, feeding, walks, and playtime throughout the day. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening care, and I make sure pets are never left alone for long periods. At my home, I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment, providing attentive supervision, consistent care, and respectful handling to ensure pets feel comfortable and secure
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I can remember. I have always been the go-to with friends and neighbors to take care over night, walk or drop ins. I grew up with 3 dogs at once and from there have always had one of my own until recently with my job! I travel time to time for work, so owning one now isn’t in the cards. Being on Rover is the best of both worlds for me. I currently work from home, and have the flexibility to leave when needed. I wake up early for the gym, or a run, so if your dog likes running or needs a walk early in the morning, I can definitely do that as well. I live in an apartment, and it is very dog friendly. There are areas where other dogs are, if you are okay with that. I can wash the dog as well.
About: I had an older dog for four years that I love to take care of. I am flexible with the activity levels of your pets. I work remotely. My job is flexible, so I work from my home or somewhere else. I also am flexible on weekends for pet care. My complex is in a safe area and has an accessible walking trail. I have reliable transportation to get me to and from client’s home.
About: I've taken care of friend's and family's dogs for years! Natural dog lover at heart but unfortunately haven't been able to adopt a fur-friend of my own. Experience with shy timid dogs that need a calm friendly companion to look after them! I currently WFH so have lots of time to spend with you pups! Available for day care and boarding week days and or weekends depending on need Live without any other pets so your pup will have a calm relaxing environment to stay and roam in (plus all the undivided attention!). Can easily crate your dog too if needed
“Jessica was an amazing dog sitter for us and we HIGHLY recommend anyone use her. She sent us photos and took amazing care of our dog while we were on vacation. We would be thrilled to book with Jessica in the future!”
About: Hi, I’m Ashley and I’ve been caring for dogs for over 14 years, starting with my two Maltipoos, whom I’ve had since high school. They’re now happily living with my parents, but caring for them from puppies through adulthood taught me a lot about providing consistent, loving care and understanding each dog’s individual personality and needs🐕❤️ I also recently fostered a 3–month-old puppy for two weeks, helping with his daily routine, care, and adjustment while finding him a loving forever home. I especially enjoy spending time together and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their families are away. I am a housewife so I’ll be spending most of the day with your dogs. I also don’t have children or pets at home, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m available throughout the day and can be flexible with different routines and schedules. I live in a secure apartment building with controlled access and security in the lobby. My balcony is always kept locked, so pets cannot access it. I’ll leave the house to run some errands for few hours, so if you dog uses a crate/kennel when left unattended, please provide one for the stay :)
About: Hi! I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and truly love having their playful, loving energy in my home. I have a friendly 2-year-old pup, Renni, who has never met a dog she didn’t become best friends with, so every visiting pup has a built-in playmate. I work a hybrid schedule and work from home on Mondays and Fridays, allowing me to provide plenty of supervision, attention, potty breaks, walks, and even trips to the dog park right outside my door. On Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, I work from the office during the day, so please keep that in mind if your pet requires constant daytime care. Pets staying with me on those days should be comfortable spending a few hours on their own before I return home to give them plenty of love and attention. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and loved—just like they're at their home away from home! My schedule allows me to provide lots of quality time with the pets in my care. In addition to weekends, I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, making the span of Friday to Monday perfect for dogs who enjoy extra companionship, frequent potty breaks, walks, and plenty of playtime. On Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, I work from the office during the day, so pets staying with me should be comfortable spending a few hours on their own before I return home for walks, playtime, and cuddles. No matter the day, I'll do my best to stick to your dog's usual routine so they feel happy, comfortable, and right at home. I have a dog park directly outside my building that I take my dog to several times a day! If dog parks aren’t the right fit, I also have a great neighborhood walking trail to stretch our legs. My dog sleeps in the crate some nights and on her bed in the living room other nights so however your dog is comfortable, I can accommodate!
“I was very happy and satisfied with the service I received from Alonso and his wife Eva. They treated my dog Charlie with compassion and affection and truly cared for him like he was part of their family. It gave me great peace of mind knowing Charlie was in such kind and attentive hands. I would definitely recommend their services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. Thank you both so much! If I ever need doggie daycare again, I will definitely use your services.”
“Marissa was very attentive to our puppy. She went out if her way to talke extra care of her, gave her medicine and always walked her and sent us picttires. She was very responsible and easy to work with”
“Ian - Deacon told us he very much enjoyed coming by and playing with Misty and the gang. He said they all made him feel right at home. He's bugging us already to get back over. Thank you Ian...he's a special little guy and you and your crew gave him a very special day.”

About: I’m a real estate agent so my schedule is super flexible! I just love spending my extra time with cute dogs and cats. Animals have been a huge part of my life since I got my first dog at six years old, and today my three cats happily run the household. Friends know me as the person who ends up spending more time with the pets than the people, usually on the floor doing what we jokingly call "pet yoga" with whichever dog or cat wants to join. I have a special soft spot for rescue animals, senior pets, and those who need a little extra patience and understanding. I've supported local rescue organizations for years and even helped transport animals for Austin Pets Alive during the Texas floods. Whether your pet wants adventure, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm companion, my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I’m a real estate agent so my schedule is flexible! I’m an early riser and as a life long Texan, I don’t mind the middle of the day summer heat. Having worked with rescue animals and senior pets, I'm comfortable moving at each animal's pace and paying attention to the little details that help them feel secure and stress-free.
“Amelia is great! She’s been prompt and great, we had some issues with the building elevator etc and was ready to accommodate and make sure my pup was taken care of. I couldn’t recommend her more, she’s been great and I look forward to rebooking with her in the future 🙂”
About: I've never met a dog or cat I can't win over. I meet them at their pace, never pushing unwanted interaction onto them. I have volunteered and fostered for multiple shelters. I have experience administering medicine, grooming, and bathing. Currently working part-time, so I'm relatively free to look after pets. I am also a morning person, and I don't mind getting up early to check in on and walk someone's baby, especially with how hot it is right now. I will follow your guidance on your dog or cat's care in your household to a T. I want to alleviate the stress an animal may feel meeting a new person by sticking to their usual routine.
“Very communicative and responsible with our young and vivacious puppy. Christian worked her flawlessly on walks, reinforcing some training we’ve been doing while adapting to any particular needs she had that day. I would highly recommend!”
About: I spent more than a decade loving a very large, very opinionated German Shepherd named Ruta through epilepsy, severe allergies, endless medication schedules, and his senior years, so “high-maintenance” pets don’t scare me. I tend to love them even harder. These days I’m supervised by Edwin, my mini Aussie rescue, who has strong opinions about other dogs, delivery trucks, and apparently several completely innocent squirrels. Living with him has made me very comfortable with boundaries, reactivity, slow introductions, and the fact that not every dog wants to be everybody’s friend. I’m also the person who genuinely wants the six-paragraph document explaining exactly how your dog likes breakfast. Give me the quirks, the routines, the medications, the weird little rules, the favorite toy, the thing they absolutely will not do unless you ask them in a very specific way. I want to know all of it. Basically: I take your pet seriously without taking myself too seriously. And yes, I will probably send you too many pictures. My schedule is pretty flexible, which means I can usually work around your pet’s normal routine. Walks, meals, potty breaks, meds, couch hangs; tell me what they’re used to and I’ll do my best to keep things consistent. Tell me everything. What’s their routine? What makes them nervous? Are they an escape artist? A sock eater? Do they lose their mind when a skateboard goes by? How are they on leash? I’m big on respecting a pet’s boundaries and keeping their routine as familiar as possible. I’d much rather know about a quirk or trigger ahead of time than be surprised by it later.
“John came through last minute when I came down with a bad cold, he was so kind to myself and Juno & took her on a nice long walk twice, the same day. I definitely recommend John!”
About: I've always had dogs in my life. I grew up with smaller dogs in my family, but when I moved off to college I didn't have as much time around them. It honestly took a minor toll on my mental health, because I actually believe dogs are the key to happiness. Once I moved to Arlington and my roommate had a dog (a medium sized), I knew I needed to surround myself with more. And what better way to get to know the community than to take care of the most important part of it! Working remotely gives me the incredible flexibility to make pet care a seamless part of my day. While I work a standard 9-to-5 schedule, my job allows me to easily step away from my desk whenever needed. Whether that means taking your dog out for a mid-day potty break, going on an afternoon walk to burn off some energy, or giving a cat some quality cuddle time, I can accommodate your pet’s exact routine without delay. When I take on a pet sitting commitment, that work becomes my top priority. My flexible remote setup means I’m present, attentive, and available throughout the day - giving your pets the companionship and supervision they need so you can have complete peace of mind while you're away. Whether I’m hosting your pet at my home or caring for them in yours, safety and trust are my top priorities. My own space is fully pet-proofed, safe, and secure for hosting, while in your home, I treat your property with absolute respect, adhering strictly to your house rules, routine, and security preferences. On walks and during yard play, I stay 100% focused on your pet - maintaining a secure grip on the leash, monitoring weather and pavement conditions, and actively avoiding potential hazards or unfamiliar dogs. Building trust starts with clear, reliable communication. I make a point to send frequent updates and photos so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. From double-checking fence latches to keeping strict safety routines, I take every precaution to give you complete peace of mind while you're away.

“Natalie did a great job walking my GSD Jansen. I got photos and updates. She was very considerate and good with communication. I will definitely book with her again.”
About: I don’t know a life without pets to care for! I was raised with both dogs and cats and currently have 2 big dogs of my own. I am regularly caring for friends, family, or friend of friends’ pets - both cats and dogs and including drop-ins or boarding at either their house or mine. For drop-ins and walks I am generally available weekdays from 11a - 6p for same-day notices. With a bit of notice I have weeknight availability. My two dogs have a large fenced backyard and a fenced front yard, and also get walks with my husband and I. My dogs are both 50-55 pounds and I can handle both simultaneously without issue. For both your dog and my safety, I don’t walk reactive dogs over 75 pounds unless my husband is available for assistance (limited availability and will require more advanced notice).
“Heather was the first dog walker I've ever hired to walk my dog Molasses. In the beginning I was pretty nervous since I didn't know how Lass would do with someone else walking her and having a new person in my apartment while I was gone. Heather was great because she offered to do a meet and great before out 1st scheduled walk to make Lass and myself feel comfortable. I'm so grateful for this meet up! Lass loves Heather and their walks. Between the super cute photos I get and the love that my dog receives, I couldn't ask for a better walker!”
About: I’ve grown up with and taken care of animals all my life. I have a 9 year old cat and 15 month old dog. They are my pride and joy. I also have experience with elderly dogs and cats. I am currently in between jobs and have plenty of time on my hands. I am available to pet sit all week and most weekends. I live in an apartment complex with a dog park. I also have a 15 month old pup who I take for walks at least 3 times a day. He’s great with other dogs both small and large and he lives with a cat. He’ll keep your pets company.
About: I am a cat owner, dog aunt, and have had pets my entire life. I would love the opportunity to meet and care for your fur babies! I love taking dogs on long walks and playing with both cats and dogs. I hope to find repeat clients so that I can fully get to know your pets and their unique needs, and create a safe, comfortable experience for them while you're away. I work fully remotely and have a decent amount of flexibility throughout the work day. I am also available in mornings and evenings for walks and play time! I only offer dog walks or cat/dog visits in your home. I love going on long walks with dogs, playing with dogs and cats, and developing a friendship with animals.
About: I had an older dog for four years that I love to take care of. I am flexible with the activity levels of your pets. I work remotely. My job is flexible, so I work from my home or somewhere else. I also am flexible on weekends for pet care. My complex is in a safe area and has an accessible walking trail. I have reliable transportation to get me to and from client’s home.
“Heidi walked our dog for 4 days while we were out of town. I absolutely recommend her because she genuinely cares for each furbaby as if they were her own. She asked a lot of questions during her initial meeting with us and even took down her own notes. She was on time for each walk, gave detailed updates and sent a picture for every walk. I can tell she really cares and really made the extra effort to make sure my baby was comfortable and happy while we were away.”
About: Ever since I was a kid I have always felt like I have been in tune with animals. I always had 2 dogs and a cat or 2 cats and a dog growing up. As an adult I have volunteered at Animal sanctuaries and shelters. I donate to these institutions regularly. I don’t ever remember (nor do I ever want to), have a a time in my life where I don’t have a fur baby! They enrich your life so much! I have rescued ALL my fur babies! They are my kids! My world! I just rescued a 10 month old kitten who is more like a dog than a cat, IMO. So, If I become your sitter, I will treat your pets as if they were my own!

“Erika did an excellent job watching after our Peppercorn. Regular photo and video updates and our dog had plenty of other dogs to play with throughout her stay.”
“Christine & Colin were great! We got lots of pictures and updates, and and they took the time to get to know her personality and needs. All of which gave us great peace of mind!”
“Sarah is great! She was communicative and took great care of my dog. I got daily updates and photos of them playing, lounging and snuggling. Knowing my dog was safe and being cared for while I was away was great peace of mind.”
“Zoe and David are the best! They give my dog lots of TLC and keep me up to date of how he is doing. I always know Tucker is in the best of care whenever he stays with them.”
“Alice was amazing! She was very thorough, sent check ins throughout the day, and was very responsive! We had a brief playdate prior to make sure our pup Beaux got along well with her pup Corrah. The next day at drop off, Beaux happily went with Alice giving us a peace of mind that he felt happy and safe with her! Beaux clearly loved his time with Alice and Corrah. We will definitely be working with her again!”
“I had the best experience with Wilson and Jessica! They were super communicative, and made me feel great about leaving my dog with them for 5 days. I got tons of photos and felt reassured that she was cared for and loved. Highly recommend!”
“The best Rovers in Austin. They always go above and beyond with their care, and I have absolute trust in letting them watch our pup. I will always choose Cassandra and Jason first, if they are available!”
“I haven’t used Rover in a while as I have a regular sitter now, but the rare time they are unavailable I was quite nervous coming back on Rover again. I’m SO glad I found Sam on here! He was so responsive, made sure to provide me consistent updates and followed my instructions perfectly. Petey (my dog) absolutely enjoyed staying with Sam, I could tell - so I will be using his services again.”
“Madeline was a great sitter. My little girl was nervous and not too happy with me for leaving her for a week but Madeline did everything she could to make Olive comfortable and happy. She was communicative and responsive. By the end of Olive’s stay she was feeling right at home! Thank you!”
“Super responsive during pre-booking. Great communication during boarding. Easy drop off and pick up. Convenient, central location, too. Our pup came back happy and healthy, couldn't ask for more!”
“Kristina watched my dog while I was out of town for a few days. Her response time was quick and we set up a time for our pets to meet and make sure it was a good fit. Her and her dog are so sweet and friendly! She sent updates and pictures over the entire stay. It was an easy drop off/pick up. She took great care of my dog and he seemed to love his time with her. Highly recommend Kristina for your pet watching needs!”
“Alison was very welcoming of my dog. Even after my dog was a bit of a bully to her sweet dog during the middle of my trip, Alison still had mine playing and having a wonderful time. She sent pictures and a video of the dogs playing while I was away. Great communication.”
“Hanna totally rocks! From the very start in booking, to picking up my dog, she was wonderful to work with. She is a great communicator and continually sent fun updates to keep me posted. I highly suggest Hanna for a 5-star experience :)”
“Eddie was phenomenal with Kai. Kai can be pretty high energy but Eddie was great about finding time to take him out on walks even during a Rainy weekend. Felt super comfortable having Kai stay at their house for the weekend with all the great pupdates. Would definitely book with Eddie again in the future”
“Cheyanne was amazing with my dog Courage. She was so kind and patient with him since it takes him awhile to be comfortable with people. They seemed like best buddies by the end of his stay. I can’t thank Cheyanne enough for taking such good care of him.”
“Priscila did such a great job with Milo! She was very communicative, sent photos, and made sure Milo felt right at home (he’s naturally a pretty anxious pup). Would absolutely recommend!”
“Aine communicated frequently and sent lots of pictures, videos and updates. Their dog is very friendly too and their home has a nice big yard for the dogs to play.”
“We left our handful of a pup Sophie with Lynne for almost 2 weeks. She had a blast playing with Lynne's dogs and other visitors too. Lynne kept us updated while we were away with messages, photos and even a short video of Sophie having a wonderful time. She was happy and healthy when we returned. Thanks so much Lynne! I'm sure we'll be asking you to watch Sophie again. ”
“Lee and Michael were just wonderful with Tobey! They were very communicative and did a lot with him during the day. We loved all of the pics they took and how much they kept us informed! Tobey was even sad to come home! I would recommend them any day! We will definitely use them again!”
