“Alina took such great care of our American Bully, Bruno! It was our first time using Rover and Alina made sure to answer all questions, concerns, and was very communicative throughout Bruno's stay. She sent videos and pictures throughout the day and our buddy had lots of fun and made new friends! We will definitely book again when traveling out of town. I am very grateful to have found Alina on Rover. Many thanks!”
“Jessica was a great and accommodating host as we were in a rush to drop our dogs off on way to the airport and kind enough to allow a late night pick up when our return flight got in late. Our dogs seemed like they were happy and we will use her again! 🐾”
“Mayra put me at ease from the warm welcome the moment we met to the way she greeted my precious golden doodle. Mayra was attentive to details, sent pics to inform me —-AND has an awesome loving mom who helps out! Look no further, Mayra is the kind of responsible and caring person who you can count on. Thank you, Mayra & Mom!!”
“Melissa took amazing care of our 2 dogs and she kept me up to date on everything that went on. Every feed and medication, she reached out when she gave it to them. She even offered to feed my dog a science diet because he was having an upset stomach and wasn’t eating. I would recommend her to any owner looking to board and I will continue to use her on my many future travel plans. 10/10”

“Stephanie was absolutely fantastic with our dog, Bailey! She sent us daily photo updates where she took her walking, riding and playing with her lovely dogs which completely put our minds at ease while we were away.

About: I take the time to learn each pet’s personality so they feel safe and understood. I focus on keeping pets calm, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m currently working full time but will still have time to walk or care for your pets after 4pm on weekdays and all day weekends In my home, pets get a calm, clean, and safe environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and routine. I stick closely to their normal feeding, potty, and exercise schedules to help them feel comfortable and secure.

I will also try regular updates and photos of your pup so you always know what they are doing :)
“Alicia is absolutely amazing! This is the first time that I have used Rover and I am so glad that I did. Alicia met me very early in the morning to accommodate my work schedule and was so nice when I was running late to pick up my Max. She did so well with him and I could tell that he really liked her when I picked him up. I was nervous about leaving him since we are still working on his socialization but she said he did so well. I will definitely book with her again when she is available. I could not recommend her enough. Thank you so much!!”
“This was our second time boarding our dog with April, and this was for a long trip in November. April is fantastic and we will definitely keep April as our go-to dog sitter! She sent daily photos/videos and was communicative with us, and we knew our dog Suri was well cared for. Her dog Polly is a very cute corgi and since both our dogs are on the chiller side, they were a good match for each other.”
“Tami was an amazing dog sitter for my dog, Luke, this past weekend. From the moment we met, I felt confident in her ability to take care of him. She was friendly, professional, and clearly has a great love for dogs. Throughout the weekend, she kept me updated with photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease. Luke seemed so happy and relaxed in her care. I could tell he was getting plenty of attention, playtime, and love. When I picked him up, he was calm and content, which is a sure sign that he had a great time with Tami. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. Thank you, Tami, for taking such good care of Luke!”
About: What sets me apart is the level of personal care, attention, and space I provide for every dog. As a full-time homemaker and dedicated dog mom, I have the time to give each guest the supervision, companionship, and affection they deserve instead of leaving them alone for long periods. I have hands-on experience caring for my own two Cane Corsos, a large working breed that requires consistency, patience, and confident handling. This experience has taught me how to understand different personalities, recognize body language, and create a calm, safe environment for dogs of different sizes and energy levels. My home offers a fully fenced 2.41-acre country property, giving dogs plenty of room to safely run, explore, and play. I also understand that not every dog enjoys group play, so I can separate dogs when needed to ensure everyone stays comfortable, relaxed, and safe. I believe every dog is unique. I take the time to follow each owner’s care instructions, feeding schedule, exercise routine, and preferences so your pet feels as close to home as possible. I also provide regular updates and photos, giving you peace of mind while you’re away.

Pet care is a natural part of my daily life because I’m a full-time homemaker and devoted dog mom. Being home throughout the day allows me to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, feeding on schedule, playtime, exercise, and plenty of love and attention for every dog in my care. Each day includes supervised outdoor time on our fully fenced 2.41-acre property, enrichment activities, cuddle time, and a comfortable place to rest indoors. I also make sure every guest follows their owner’s routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe, relaxed, and at home. As a furry parent myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your beloved companion. I treat every dog as if they were my own, giving them patience, kindness, and personalized care throughout their stay. My goal is to provide a calm, clean, and loving environment where dogs can enjoy themselves while their owners have complete peace of mind. At Country Paws Retreat, your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I provide a peaceful, loving home where every dog is treated like family.

That’s why I provide attentive, personalized care, regular potty breaks, supervised playtime, fresh water, and lots of love and affection throughout the day.

As a proud owner of two friendly Cane Corsos, I have experience caring for large breeds and understand that every dog has a unique personality.

About: Hello! I take dog sitting seriously and safety is my number one priority. Your dog will always have someone around to give it lots of attention and affection. I do everything I can to to meet the needs of your dog to assure they are safe, comfortable, and having fun. I live alone and have a pretty big house where the puppers or kitties won’t get bored, I have a fenced back yard where they can go to town! Besides that I am just a very patient individual who loves animals. I work from home so I have a very flexible schedule. I make my own schedule in accordance to what is best for my service. IMPORTANT INFORMATION: HOUSE SITTING: I would just like to clarify the services that I am to provide to you (according to ROVER guidelines) when I’m HOUSE SITTING. A lot of people get a bit confused regarding the actual service we are to provide because rover does not do a very good job defining each service. House sitting is essentially OVER NIGHT sitting, a sitter comes and stays over night to watch over your pup/pups/pet and leaves in the morning. I usually take an over night sitting as an 8hr shift, so if I come at 10PM, I leave at 6-7AM. Unfortunately, house sitting is not a service where the sitter stays at your home over night and comes to check on your pet several times a day, those would be “drop-in visits” and you would need to book those :). I understand it could get expensive, so In cases where the client lives really close to me, I am willing to work with you, just contact me :). I usually take care of pets the same way I do with my family dog. With kindness patience and attentiveness. Snacks as well, unless instructed other wise.

About: My dogs are my best friends and my whole world! When I’m your pet sitter, your pet will be mine too! My love for dogs stems from the time I spent caring for my childhood poodles growing up.

As an adult, I care for my Dalmatian and my Basset hound mix just the same. In caring for my dogs, I have successfully been able to kennel train, potty train and house train both of them. I’m a teacher who unfortunately just went back to work. However, I’m still available in the evenings and on weekends! Even though I’m back at work, I will still make sure to prioritize you and your fur baby’s needs! At my home, I have a fenced back yard where my 2 dogs love to run around and play all day long. When it’s time for them to rest, they sleep in their kennels inside the house.

I’m very flexible when it comes to you and your pets schedule so i work around you guys! I provide around the clock care when it comes to playtime, walks, and feedings! I have a large fenced yard with lots of green lush grass and a covered patio where your dog can play with my own pups. I keep my dogs indoors in a secured playpen and my cats have their own cat room away from everyone. One of my senior dogs is diabetic and receives insulin injections twice a day. I am professionally prepared and comfortable to take care of any of your pets needs. I work closely with doctors which means easy access for any on the spot care if needed or for future needs/advice! I'm currently working as a veterinary nurse some days of the week and am a college student thats fully remote. I'm actively trying to occupy my free days by helping fellow pet owners with their pet care needs 7 days a week. Growing up on a ranch and working in veterinary medicine it was kinda hard to refrain from owning so many animals. My fur babies goes as follows. I have a goat, a cockatiel, indoor cats, dogs, peacocks and cattle. Although I have help with my outdoor animals, I fully tend to all our indoor animals. Each pet has a strict diet and bathroom regime that I follow prior to my shifts and post shifts. I'm structured to say the least, especially when it comes to animals and you can expect nothing less when it comes to your pets.
About: Hello my name is Amanda :) I am from Harlingen and currently attending UTRGV to major in Marine Biology. Me and my family have a six year old chihuahua named Soda who is super loved!! I decided to get Rover because I would like to earn some money to help with my school expenses & other things. I am currently 26 yrs old. I am a friendly and an easy going person. I would love and enjoy the opportunity to take care of your little fur friends and will do my absolute best of taking care of them. I love dogs and look forward to having fun with them! For dog walking & dog visit services, I am available early mornings to mid afternoons for both weekdays and weekends. I am excited to care of your pups! My dog Soda is an indoor dog but he really loves playing outside. When he wants to go outside, I walk him on his leash and playfully throw his ball for him to run, and take him to do his doggy business.
About: I have been in the game of pet/house sitting since 2020. I have done most of my pet/house sits through TrustedHouseSitters but I’m happy to be here now. I am happy to provide any and all references, as well as chatting with you to answer any questions or concerns you may have. I will work around your schedule and whatever works best for you and your pet(s). We can communicate and strategize to see how we can best achieve this. Safety is my main my priority. I want to ensure your home and pets are safe and comfortable while under my care. I will follow every rule and guideline and any actions that need to be taken to ensure a safe but fun environment. I will always treat your home and pet(s) with respect and as if they were my own.
About: I've taken care of animals since i was about 8. I love them all. I've had both cats and dogs so I have experience with both. I've even bottle fed and raised kittens from 1 week old. I make my own schedule for work so I am able to make time for this, whatever fits your fur babies schedule I am able to do. I love all animals so I will care for your fur babies with any instructions you give me with love and care. Treating them as I do my own. I'll always give you updates on how your fur baby is doing. Me and my husband currently have one dog (Bandita) and one cat (Cheetah) both indoors. They're both super friendly with other animals. Fur babies are allowed on the sofa with me to be sure and have pleanty of cuddle time but I also have dog beds for them if they want some space. I have an acre yard that is fenced but I still do not leave dogs unattended outside. Your fur babies will feel happy and loved with me.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience and genuine love for animals. I’ve had multiple dogs and cats my whole life, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of who I am. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I’m patient, attentive, and responsive to their individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for puppies who need extra attention, consistency, and basic training reinforcement, as well as senior pets who may require a slower pace, medication reminders, or gentle care. I’m very observant and make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Now that I’m away at college, I truly miss having animals around, so pet sitting is something that brings me joy in the meantime. I have a big heart for animals, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. 🐾💛 Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine because I intentionally plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for. As a college student, I have structured class times, which allows me to create consistent morning, afternoon, and evening check-ins for walks, feeding, playtime, and any special care needs. I’m used to building my day around animals since I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. Whether it’s early morning walks, mid-day potty breaks, or evening cuddle time, I make sure pets receive attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. On weekends, I typically have even more flexibility, which allows for longer walks or extra playtime. Caring for pets isn’t something I squeeze in — it’s something I prioritize because I truly enjoy it. 🐾💛 When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their environment. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, medications, exercise routines, and any specific behavioral needs. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep everything clean and organized. I make sure pets stay on their normal routine to reduce stress while their owner is away. This includes walks, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of attention and affection. I also provide updates and photos so owners feel reassured. If caring for pets in my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with close supervision. I ensure they have a safe space to rest, regular potty breaks, structured playtime, and lots of companionship. Because I’ve had multiple dogs and cats my whole life, I’m very attentive to body language and behavior changes, especially for puppies or senior pets who may need extra care. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always aim to provide consistent, loving, and responsible care. 🐾💛
About: I personally trained my own Puppy Snowflake, and in the process I got trained myself on how to train them. I love playing with them, spending time with them. I am currently not doing a typical 9 to 5 job and that gives me the flexibility to do what I love the most, which is spending time with pets. I would play with them, keep them active. Take them out for walks and feed them based on requirement. I will keep a constant watch to ensure they are safe.
About: I've been a dog owner for 15 years now and there is nothing more that I love to spend time on than taking them on walking and hiking adventures all around the town and surrounding areas. And I would love to do the same with your dogs if you give me that opportunity. Your dogs will create a new space in my heart and together we will create some fun and healthy adventures with all the joy and sweetness that your dog deserves. I will be available full time at anytime of the day 7 days a week. Dogs are my life and I went to make this job my life as well. I will give every possible effort to be the best care taker for your beloved dog. Dogs are my world and I will care for your dogs as if they were my world with utmost love and sweetness and with the highest degree of kindness.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and have 3 of my own. Once I got my own place I adopted a dog and 3 cats. I love animals and would love to take care of yours as my own. I have plenty of time for your pets. I would love to make this my full time job. I have pets of my own and would love to care for yours. I walk my dogs every day for 45 minutes at a golf course. Would love to take care of your animals and walk them. My life revolves around my pets so I’ll definitely treat yours as my own.
“My dog absolutely adores Marcy! She is reliable and takes excellent care of my pup, and always keeps me updated on his well-being. I can definitely relay on Marcy and her pup to provide a caring and great time for my dog ❤️”
About: Hey there! A little bit about me: I’ve been with Rover since 2021, but I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. From growing up with a Dalmatian and a Chihuahua to now having my 10 year old Lola (she lives with my parents), dogs and animals have always been part of my life. As a kid, I was always bringing home stray dogs and cats, making sure they found safe, loving homes. I also volunteered at the Gladys Porter Zoo in Brownsville, Texas, where I cared for a variety of animals—from rabbits, guinea pigs, and ferrets to snakes, tortoises, parrots, and even raccoons. Over the years, I’ve pet-sat for countless dogs, cats, and reptiles (I even cared for a friend’s chameleon for two months!). I have extensive experience with senior pets and those with medical needs. I cared for my own senior dog, who lived a happy, full life to the age of 16 and passed away in May 2025. I’ve also cared for many other senior dogs, including pets needing special attention, medication, or extra patience. I truly love all animals—dogs, cats, and everything in between—and I especially adore pets who enjoy a good cuddle. My promise is to care for your pet with the same love, patience, and kindness I’d give my own. Safety and comfort always come first, and I value details and clear directions so that both you and your pet feel secure and stress-free. I’m respectful and very mindful of clients’ homes. I always aim to leave everything just as I found it and you’ll never have to worry about me raiding your favorite snacks! :) I have a flexible schedule, though I kindly ask for at least a week’s notice when booking if possible. I understand that things can come up last minute, and I’ll always do my best to accommodate. I prefer caring for pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable, and I tailor my care based on your specific instructions. No matter what, your pet will receive plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. Thank you for considering me—I look forward to meeting you and your furry, scaly, or feathered family members! I'm looking for owners and families that need a one time sitter or a reoccurring sitter. Pet sitting is my full time job so really whenever I can I like to pick up pet sitting jobs. I currently pet sit often for a friend of mine. So depending on what your pet's schedule is like or what your schedule is like I can be as flexible as I need to be to accommodate your needs. I will provide the best care possible to your home and your pet/s. I am very respectful of people's space, and I am courteous to leave the home exactly the way I arrived. The way I care for pets is of course with love and care. I am an animal lover to the core, so it's pretty easy for me to get along with any animal I come across, especially dogs and cats. I would love to know any special information about the client's pets so that I can care for them as much as I need to and to protect the dog/cat(s) I am caring for, as well as other dogs/cats they may encounter on a walk. The more detail and specifics, the better!

“Contacted Martie and she quickly responded, coordinated the drop off and pick up time. She sent me several photos of my dog, enjoying herself while I was gone. I couldn’t ask anymore, and I would recommend her to anybody in the area.”
“Alina took such great care of our American Bully, Bruno! It was our first time using Rover and Alina made sure to answer all questions, concerns, and was very communicative throughout Bruno's stay. She sent videos and pictures throughout the day and our buddy had lots of fun and made new friends! We will definitely book again when traveling out of town. I am very grateful to have found Alina on Rover. Many thanks!”
“Jessica was a great and accommodating host as we were in a rush to drop our dogs off on way to the airport and kind enough to allow a late night pick up when our return flight got in late. Our dogs seemed like they were happy and we will use her again! 🐾”
“Melissa took amazing care of our 2 dogs and she kept me up to date on everything that went on. Every feed and medication, she reached out when she gave it to them. She even offered to feed my dog a science diet because he was having an upset stomach and wasn’t eating. I would recommend her to any owner looking to board and I will continue to use her on my many future travel plans. 10/10”

About: What sets me apart is the space and care I provide. I live on 2.5 acres, giving dogs plenty of room to safely explore, play, and burn off energy. As both a lifelong dog and horse lover, I’m comfortable caring for animals of all sizes and personalities. I understand that every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their routine, energy level, and preferences to help them feel at home. I treat every dog like they’re part of the family, providing lots of attention, playtime, and affection while keeping owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. Whether your dog loves to run, relax, or just wants extra cuddles, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care in a safe, country setting. Pet care fits naturally into my daily schedule because I’m a stay-at-home mom to my toddler. Being home throughout the day allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, regular exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. Your pet won’t be left alone for long periods and will receive lots of love and supervision in a calm, family-oriented environment. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, and I love incorporating them into our daily routine!

“Amazing! Reynaldo sent videos and pictures and gave our puppy his medications. He even gave my husband and I some tips on how to care for our new puppy which we are very thankful for!”
“Stephanie was absolutely fantastic with our dog, Bailey! She sent us daily photo updates where she took her walking, riding and playing with her lovely dogs which completely put our minds at ease while we were away. When we got back, Bailey was happy, calm, and well-exercised. We would book her again in a heartbeat!"”
“Alicia is absolutely amazing! This is the first time that I have used Rover and I am so glad that I did. Alicia met me very early in the morning to accommodate my work schedule and was so nice when I was running late to pick up my Max. She did so well with him and I could tell that he really liked her when I picked him up. I was nervous about leaving him since we are still working on his socialization but she said he did so well. I will definitely book with her again when she is available. I could not recommend her enough. Thank you so much!!”
“This was our second time boarding our dog with April, and this was for a long trip in November. April is fantastic and we will definitely keep April as our go-to dog sitter! She sent daily photos/videos and was communicative with us, and we knew our dog Suri was well cared for. Her dog Polly is a very cute corgi and since both our dogs are on the chiller side, they were a good match for each other.”
About: What sets me apart is the level of personal care, attention, and space I provide for every dog. As a full-time homemaker and dedicated dog mom, I have the time to give each guest the supervision, companionship, and affection they deserve instead of leaving them alone for long periods. I have hands-on experience caring for my own two Cane Corsos, a large working breed that requires consistency, patience, and confident handling. This experience has taught me how to understand different personalities, recognize body language, and create a calm, safe environment for dogs of different sizes and energy levels. My home offers a fully fenced 2.41-acre country property, giving dogs plenty of room to safely run, explore, and play. I also understand that not every dog enjoys group play, so I can separate dogs when needed to ensure everyone stays comfortable, relaxed, and safe. I believe every dog is unique. I take the time to follow each owner’s care instructions, feeding schedule, exercise routine, and preferences so your pet feels as close to home as possible. I also provide regular updates and photos, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. For me, this isn’t just pet sitting—it’s providing a loving, trustworthy home where your furry family member is treated with the same care and respect I give my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life because I’m a full-time homemaker and devoted dog mom. Being home throughout the day allows me to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, feeding on schedule, playtime, exercise, and plenty of love and attention for every dog in my care. Each day includes supervised outdoor time on our fully fenced 2.41-acre property, enrichment activities, cuddle time, and a comfortable place to rest indoors. I also make sure every guest follows their owner’s routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe, relaxed, and at home. As a furry parent myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your beloved companion. I treat every dog as if they were my own, giving them patience, kindness, and personalized care throughout their stay. My goal is to provide a calm, clean, and loving environment where dogs can enjoy themselves while their owners have complete peace of mind. At Country Paws Retreat, your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I provide a peaceful, loving home where every dog is treated like family. My 2.41-acre fully fenced property offers plenty of secure space to run, play, explore, and relax in a safe country setting. I understand that leaving your furry family member with someone new takes trust. That’s why I provide attentive, personalized care, regular potty breaks, supervised playtime, fresh water, and lots of love and affection throughout the day. I keep a close eye on every dog to ensure they are safe, comfortable, and enjoying their stay. As a proud owner of two friendly Cane Corsos, I have experience caring for large breeds and understand that every dog has a unique personality. If needed, dogs can be separated during playtime or rest periods to ensure everyone’s comfort and safety. Whether your pup is here for daycare or an extended stay, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing they’re in a clean, secure, and caring environment where they’ll receive the attention they deserve. My goal is for every guest to leave happy, relaxed, and excited to come back!

I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
