“Lilia was great with my dog while I went on vacation! Attentive and communicative and sent updates with pics! Would highly recommend and will be using her again!”
“Patches was the absolute best watching our Gomi for 2 weeks! She was gracious to allow Gomi to stay a little earlier after I realized there was a timing mistake. She kept us updated regularly and had no problem taking care of our very anxious boy. Gomi also isn’t usually the type to hang around other dogs so I was pleasantly surprised to see he was doing just fine with the other dogs boarded or in residence ! Definitely will be taking Gomi back to patches again!!”
“We are so grateful for Rockie’s stay with Mariana and her mom. They took such great care of him, gave him Christmas bandanas, lots of playtime and love. We highly recommend them for your pets!😊”

“Another amazing stay! Thank you for taking care of cholula again and sending me lots of photo/video updates she was so happy with you! Highly recommend!”
“Always a great stay with Sossi! We’re repeat guests and always look forward to leaving our dogs in her care. It gives us peace of mind knowing they’re well cared for, and we can truly relax while we’re away. Sossi sends us daily updates with photos, which is always a treat too!”
“Bassam is the best! He will love and take care of your pups during their stay. My trip got unexpectedly extended a day and Bassam was so understanding. I knew my pups were safe and happy while I was detailing with travel details. I can not recommend him enough!”
“I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Sarah! From the moment we met, I knew my dog was in great hands. Sarah was so welcoming, and her setup was perfect—my dog felt right at home and barely noticed I was gone! It’s such a relief to find someone who genuinely cares about your pet’s comfort and happiness. Highly recommend Sarah on for anyone looking for peace of mind while they’re away.”
“Paige and Harold were fantastic!! This was our first time boarding our dog, who has dealt with past trauma. They were extremely attentive to his and our needs, and went above and beyond to ensure he was comfortable. They gave us multiple pics every day, which settled our nerves. My husband and I joked that our dog was having a spa weekend - it was clear in all his updates that he was getting spoiled! I would highly recommend booking with Paige - they are so kind and caring!”
“super sweet people. they made me feel super safe about leaving my pup with them and she sent me photo updates every day. and their pup fionn is such a sweet dog”
“Nancy was a lifesaver and total sweetheart to my dog! When my previous sitter changed her mind while I was on my way to the airport already Nancy was able to pick him up saving me a heart attack before boarding my plane.”
“Marissa was a wonderful host to my girl. I get frequent updates, pictures, and videos of my pup playing and looking happy as a clam. I felt very fortunate to have had such an awesome sitter for my dog and peace of mind while I was away. Would definitely recommend Marissa for a short or long term stay!”
“She has gone above and beyond for my cat’s entire stay. She was incredibly helpful with schedule changes, dealt with daily medication, and even went so far as to make my cat a sweater so she wouldn’t be cold. By far the best sitter I’ve ever experienced.”
“Marc was great! We met at a dog park before the booking to see how my two dogs got along with sweet Floof. You can tell Marc really loves dogs. He sent lots of photos each day I was gone and it was clear my two pups had a great time! Thanks Marc! Will book again!”
“Elijah was amazing! He took excellent care of my pups, ensuring their special diet and medication needs were met. When I picked them up, they were happy and looked fantastic. Thank you again for taking such great care of them!”
“Raquel was so great with our two dogs! She was flexible in working with our pick up/drop off times, and very communicative by sending multiple picture updates for us throughout their stay. This is the second time my dogs have stayed with Raquel and we definitely will be booking her again soon. Thanks Raquel!”
“As an anxious dog mom who had never left my dog with sitters before (and a former Rover sitter myself), I couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Savannah and Gabriel! They were incredibly communicative and responsive, and sent daily photos and updates that gave me so much peace of mind. Churro is still a puppy and potty training, and they were so understanding and even helped continue working with her. She had the best time playing with Kona and the other small dogs. I was able to fully enjoy my trip knowing she was in such great hands. We’ll absolutely book with them again!”

“Sierra was an amazing sitter! My cat, who is normally terrified of people, came out of hiding to hang out with her! I was so frazzled during my trip, but Sierra took care of my animals very well and it helped me relax a little. I would definitely book with her again!”
“James has been such a great sitter for my baby girl, Reese. I’ve moved around a lot in recent years, and I’ve found it’s a challenge to find someone who 1) shows up on time and 2) respects my home (takes off their shoes without me asking. Finding someone who does both AND cares for my animal as if she were their own is a real bonus, and James definitely exemplifies this rare trio. Very grateful for him!”

“Luciana did such a wonderful job with my cat Harley! She played with her a ton, sent so many great photos and videos, and gave her a lot of love.

“I am writing this after the first week of daycare for my young lab and could not be more pleased with the care and attention she is receiving. Lola has “endless energy” and came home exhausted every day! Ashley has provided great communication throughout and I would recommend highly.”
“Mariana took tons of photos of our puppy and took her on a walk. Her two dogs were nice as well. However, she did have like 6-7 dogs total at the house when we dropped our puppy off, which she hadn't told us about beforehand (tbf, we didn't ask). I would have appreciated a heads up as we thought it was just going to be her dogs and ours.”
“Highly recommend! My dog has dementia which means he's constantly having his brains turn more and more into mash potatoes. Patches was able to provide exceptional care with all his special needs and I never worried about him bc he was in such good hands! 😻 Meow!”
About: *10 minutes from Austin Bergstrom Airport* Hi there! I’m Stevie, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. My partner Brandon and I make a great team and we love opening our home to pets and making sure they feel safe, loved, and completely at ease while you’re away. Your pup will stay in a clean, cozy environment where routines are followed, needs are met, and cuddles are always available. We treat every dog like our own (which means spoiled in the best way). You’ll receive regular photo/video updates so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy and in good hands. Whether your pet needs special accommodations, extra attention, or just a comfortable place to nap, we’re here to make sure their stay is pleasant. When your dog stays with us, they become part of our little family. Thank you for taking the time to read our profile and we’d love to meet your fur baby soon! Brandon and I both work from home, so your pup will always have someone around for company, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of love. We already have two dogs of our own, so caring for additional pups fits naturally into our daily routine. Our clean home and fully fenced backyard make it easy to keep everyone safe, comfortable, and happy throughout the day. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. In our home, Brandon and I maintain a clean, supervised, and pet-friendly environment where your dog can relax and feel secure.

Unlike a noisy boarding facility, your dog will enjoy a calm home setting with regular potty breaks, personalized attention, and a fenced backyard for safe outdoor time. We treat every dog like part of our family and make sure they always feel seen, valued, and cared for. Please feel free to schedule a meet and greet!
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
About: Hi, I’m Derik. I’m a former professional, full-time dog walker (2011–2016) with extensive experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’ve handled multi-dog packs (up to 6 at a time), so I’m very comfortable managing energy, behavior, and group dynamics safely. Today, I offer a more personalized, structured experience—whether that’s walks, drop-ins, or small-group boarding. Your dog won’t just be “watched”—they’ll be engaged, exercised, and cared for with intention. I live an active lifestyle and prioritize: • Daily walks and outdoor time • Structured routines and calm environments • Safe, attentive supervision at all times For boarding, I keep things limited (2 dogs max plus my dog) and controlled to ensure every dog gets proper attention and an stress-free experience. This isn’t a free-for-all environment—it’s thoughtful, balanced care. I’m confident with: • High-energy dogs • Larger breeds • Dogs that need structure and guidance ⸻ 🐶 What You Can Expect: • Consistent communication and updates • A clean, safe, and calm environment • Dogs treated like part of the pack (with structure, not chaos) ⸻ ⚖️ Good Fit: I do best with dogs that are: • Social or neutral with other dogs • Comfortable in a home environment • Used to walks and basic structure ⸻ 🚫 Not the Best Fit: • Dogs with severe aggression • Dogs with extreme separation anxiety requiring constant 24/7 attention ⸻ If you’re looking for reliable, experienced, and structured care, I’d love to connect. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I’m home the majority of the day, allowing for consistent supervision and attention. I structure my day around morning, mid-day, and evening walks, along with regular outdoor time and balanced downtime. Because I’m home often, dogs in my care are rarely left alone and receive consistent interaction throughout the day. For high-energy dogs, I can also incorporate light runs or extended walks when appropriate. For boarding, I accept no more than 2 guest dogs at a time (including my own) to maintain a calm, controlled environment and ensure each dog gets proper attention and space. I’m also happy to schedule a meet & greet beforehand to make sure it’s a great fit. Safety and structure are my top priorities in both my home and my client’s home. With my background as a former professional dog walker, I’m very aware of how quickly situations can change—so I stay proactive, not reactive. In my home: • Dogs are always supervised and introduced slowly and intentionally • I maintain a calm, structured environment—no overcrowding or chaotic play • I only accept a limited number of dogs to ensure safety and individual attention • Separate spaces are available if a dog needs time to decompress During walks and drop-ins: • Dogs are always kept on secure leashes (unless in a safely enclosed area) • I stay aware of surroundings, other dogs, and potential triggers • I adjust pace, distance, and activity based on each dog’s needs and temperament I take the time to understand each dog’s routine, personality, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. Clear communication and consistency are key to keeping dogs comfortable and stress-free.
“Sossi really helped me with a last minute booking for my 2 dogs! I was sent pictures and updates throughout the day. One of my dogs gets anxiety staying in new places and Sossi made sure to make him feel comfortable and taken care of with treats and pets. Definitely booking again!”

“Mahya accompanied my early schedule and was reliable for doggie day care! By the end of the week Olof knew where he was and was wagging his tail on the walk to her apartment.

About: I live in Easton Park and have a sweet 3 year old flat coat retriever at home named Snax. He is VERY dog friendly and neutered. I’ve never known him to have an issue with any animals. I am just looking to help out others in the neighborhood since my boyfriend and I work from home. Happy to walk your furry friend or take care of them while you’re away. I’ve been taking care of dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up with two corgis and have personally raised a Labrador retriever and my flat coat retriever. Otherwise I have always been the go-to dog sitter for friends and family while they are away. My day revolves around animals ❤️ We both work from home and have a dog so I am constantly going on walks with him or running around with him in our fenced in backyard. We have a 4 bedroom home and a big backyard with plenty of space for the dogs to roam. As a lifelong dog owner and animal lover, I prioritize safety, comfort, and trust in every pet I care for—whether in my home or a client’s. I take the time to understand each pet's needs, routines, and personalities so I can create a calm, familiar environment for them. In my home, I ensure all spaces are pet-proofed, secure, and free from hazards. I maintain a clean, cozy space with plenty of supervised outdoor time, mental stimulation, and affection. If I’m in a client’s home, I always respect their space and follow their instructions closely. I double-check things like leash fit, food portions, and any special needs, and I provide regular updates with photos so they feel reassured. Whether walking, boarding, or drop-in visits, I approach each pet with patience, love, and the same level of care I give my own dog

I love a good couch cuddle moment with your pet, walks of any distance or length, and am happy to interact with them using whatever toys or things they may have to use or play with. Mental stimulation is very important for pets, especially while you’re away to help their minds and bodies relax. I can use puzzle games, slow feeders, lick mats, or any other things you have for your pet to give them mental stimulation.

About: Hello there! If you’re on my page, thank you so much for considering me to care for your pets! ❤️ A little about me — I lived in Austin for 12 years and have two dogs of my own. I have adopted and cared for dogs most of my life and have pet sat for friends & family for many years. Caring for animals is one of my passions in life, my dream someday would be to own an animal farm one day! *wouldn’t that be nice* I work remote, so I have the flexibility to do Rover on the side and have been on the platform (as a sitter) since 2020. I’m punctual, animal sensitive meaning I am aware of animal emotions and behavior, and warning — will send lots of videos and photos of your furry ones! If you decide to book me, I’ll work with you to ensure you’re 100% comfortable with the schedule, any accommodations as needed, and respect any wishes you may have. I ask for my clients to write out a list for any medications, specific requests, etc before the stay. My goal is to make sure your furry ones are safe and looked after and for my clients to have the best experience with Rover ☺️ ~ 2025 ~ I try to be available for all services on Thanksgiving/Christmas Day/majority of holidays with the exception of Christmas Day/New Year’s. Please note that these hours assume that your fur babies can be left alone for 2-4 hours at a time. Sometimes, I like to check in on my own dogs, run errands, complete chores at home. The number of hours away can be discussed on a case-by-case basis. ~ Safety ~ I prefer meeting my new client pets at their home or a dog park since that seems the most convenient for clients and comfortable for the pets. As per Rover’s terms & conditions, I prefer to keep communication via the Rover app, for my safety and the clients! Of course, once a booking has been confirmed, my clients can pass along their cell phone # for emergencies.

I like to treat them as if they are my own pet! Lot’s of cuddles and access to the couch and bed! *Currently not accepting boarding*
