“Once again, what a worry free vacation my husband and I had knowing Sunny was being spoiled, loved and cared for by Lilia. I enjoyed her daily photos of Sunny. Lilia is a good "dog photographer" she manages to get Sunny to pose for pictures everytime. Thank you Lilia.😁”
“Luna had a great time with Buddy, the pictures he sent of her showed how well she interacted with the other dogs in his huge backyard. He allowed her to sleep on the couch like she does at home with her blanket so she would feel more comfortable. I would use his services again.”
“Desmond and Robyn were great with our Luna! They sent pics/videos daily. This was our first time using the Rover app. We were pleased with the service we received. We will definitely schedule with Desmond and Robyn again if we need to.”
“Amy has watched my dog while I’m on vacation twice now, and has been a great Rover! Treats my dog like her own, provides daily updates, and is very flexible, accommodating and reliable. I will continue to use her whenever I travel or need a dog sitter!”
“She is absolutely amazing!! Linda was very caring with our fur baby. We made sure to always send picture updates each and every day. Linda was always on top of answering any of my questions about my dog while I was gone. I will be a repeat customer. I would highly recommend her, you will not be disappointed in all the love and care she gives to your babies.”
“Ziggy loved his stay Amane & her husband. They took him on lots of walks, and adventures in town. There happened to be another dog there and Ziggy seemed to enjoy having another dog to play with. Amane sent photos & detailed notes each day, which we appreciated. Ziggy was so calm when we picked him up. I think he truly enjoyed his stay! I highly recommend Amane and will book again.”
“From the meet and greet to the end of stay I felt reassured every step of the way. My senior dog is timid and shy to which Maura and Shawn were able to accommodate for with grace. Maura and Shawn treated my fur baby like she was their own. Maura and Shawn are amazing!!”
“Joel was great! He took such good care of Joey. It was my first time leaving him in the care of someone else as I was traveling overseas and his consistent updates and photos kept me at ease and I saw that my cat was really happy and thriving and having such a great time. I would certainly book him again and I highly recommend him. He’s so caring, attentive, detail oriented, and I would love to board Joey with him again!”
“Shannon and Ray took wonderful care of our dog with separation anxiety while we were away. They obviously made him feel right at home as evident from all the photos of him just relaxing without a care in the world. I think he would have been just fine moving in with them permanently! 😆. Communication with Shannon and Ray was excellent, they were very understanding and flexible in working with us on our pickup and dropoff times. Our pup didn’t need much of his anxiety medication at all while we were gone. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again in the future. Lovely people. Thank you so much Shannon and Ray!”

“Our Corgi, Koda, pretty much considers Paul and Karina his second family. They are so kind and Koda always comes back tired and happy. They send a ton of photos so I know he’s having a good time. They are definitely our first choice whenever we have to go out of town.”
“Stephanie is a godsend and I'm so grateful to have found her. I feel 100% confident that my dog is safe and happy in her care. Thank you for opening up your home and being so communicative.

“We are very happy with the Christopher's care for our girl Halo. Halo is a shy, timid and scared kind of girl, it takes her awhile to warm up. Christopher is patient and cares very much for the pets in his care. His flexibility to work with us helped tremendously to ensure we were able to attend a family trip. We truly appreciate his excellent communication, always quick to respond to our text message, sending pictures of our dog through the day, and proactively reaching out with updates. We highly recommend Christopher if you are seeking a great provider for your pet.”
About: I’ve always grown up with dogs, worked at a vet clinic when I was younger, and became a doggie foster as an adult. I have experience caring for senior pups as well. I'll treat your pup as a loved family member. Rest assured, your fur baby will be in good hands. I am mostly a stay a home mom. I take my dog to the dog park daily, and when the weather is nice we will walk Town Lake. I have cameras in my home and on the property. If I am not home I can take a look at how the dogs are doing. I also have a fenced in yard.
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!
“Etty and Arie are the most adorable dog lovers. They took in our shy little rescue pit bull for the day as if she was their own. They don’t have a dog anymore but you can tell dog sitting is a passion. They were so patient and understanding with her. They figured out quickly how to deal with her, treats! We will be back again. I really recommend them.”
“Caitlin was amazing! She was very communicative and kept me updated the entire time she was watching our pup Lucy! I could tell that Lucy was very well taken care of and got lots of love during her stay. She sent a ton of pictures and was very flexible with our pick up and drop off times. Will definitely be using her again! Thanks Caitlin!”
“Olof comes back nice and tired after a day with Priscilla. He can be a pretty lazy dog sometimes, but when he’s outside he’s super active-with my busy schedule I know he appreciates the extra stimulation to help with his anxiety. Hes happy to see her and drop off/pick up is always easy.”
“We love going to Eva’s house. She and her family are so loving and take excellent care of our pup, Cooper. My husband and I needed to find day care since I started a job in Round Rock and Eva has been a dream come true!”
“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!”
“Wonderful family! Our goldendoodle was comfortable and had a great time. They were very flexible with our plans and made it easy for us on our trip to Austin! Thanks so much!”
“We had a fantastic first experience! From the start, she was attentive and asked great questions to fully understand Rudy's needs. The constant updates with photos and videos made my day and gave me total peace of mind. I will definitely be using her services again and would recommend her to anyone!”
“First time using Rover. We feel very fortunate to have found Sinthiana. She took time to listen and understand both of our dogs different personalities and behaviors. She’s very knowledgeable and organized and her home is set up for pet care and with a nice sized backyard.”
“Baguette has only been with Linda a couple of days but I can already tell how much she loves it there. I’ve never seen her come home so happy and relaxed! Linda gives her so much love, attention, and playtime and I feel 100% at ease knowing she’s in such good hands. It means the world to know my lil baby is safe, cared for, and having fun while I’m at work. We’re so lucky to have found her! 💕🐾”

“Raven is absolutely PHENOMENAL!!! So far this is our second week with her walking Frankie and we wouldn’t have it any other way. Very professional, responsive and accommodating.”
“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!”
“Kate was amazing! Super communicative and was able to adjust my walk time when my schedule changed. Really appreciated all the info she provided about how the walks went and I’ll be checking her availability whenever I need a walker!”
About: I’ve cared for my own dogs and helped watch pets for friends and family for several years. I’m especially comfortable with high-energy and vocal dogs since I’ve owned a Husky and a Sheltie, so barking, excitement, and big personalities don’t bother me at all. I genuinely enjoy walking dogs (even for free while dog sitting) because it’s calming for both me and the dog (as long as the owner is okay with it). I also take pet safety seriously. One dog I was caring for had eaten something it shouldn’t have before the owners left town. While dog sitting, I noticed the dog was acting unusual and decided to take it to the emergency vet right away while keeping the owner updated throughout the process. The dog ended up being okay, and I always try to stay attentive, calm, and communicative when caring for a pet. I recently graduated and am currently searching for jobs, so I have plenty of free time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available every day of the week and have a very flexible schedule throughout the day! I always try to make pets feel comfortable, safe, and relaxed whether I’m in my home or the owner’s home. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, walks, medications, and anything else the owner wants done a specific way. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and bathroom breaks throughout the day. I’m very attentive to unusual behavior and believe in keeping owners updated if anything seems off. I also respect people’s homes and try to leave everything exactly how I found it.
About: I have loved and lived with animals my entire life, growing up with dogs since birth. I currently care for parents dog and cat, which gives me daily, hands-on experience managing different pet personalities, feeding schedules, and keeping both dogs and cats happy and safe. This summer, I am taking online classes from home and do not have a full-time job. This gives me a completely open, highly flexible schedule. I will be spending the vast majority of my day directly at your home, meaning your pets will have constant companionship, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of attention. Safety and respect are my top priorities. I treat your home with the utmost care, keeping everything clean, secure, and locked. I also send daily photo and text updates so you always know your pets are safe, happy, and thriving.
“Great took very good care of my senior dog. He gave a little extra love and care when she needed it. He is professional and is responsive. I highly recommend him. He was a terrific Dog Walker and will use him again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 15. I am my friend’s go to sitter, frequently taking their pets on walks and to the dog park. My experience ranges from caring for high energy weimaraners, to a senior beagle who required frequent bathing and medication, to a weenie dog who I would bring to a Saturday morning weenie dog meet up at a park near by. I work part time providing flexibility to prioritize the pet cate that you need. I am a highly active person and often outside, so pet sitting naturally fits into that. I am available for pet boarding and sitting most days with the exception of Sunday mornings. I live in a quiet low traffic part of Clarksville with a dog park only a block away. My complex is fenced in and your pet would go outside on a leash in a large yard directly out front to potty. I have a cat, Clancy, who is very used to dogs as I have boarded many in the past at my home. He is a friendly, curious little guy and enjoy the extra company. Additional, I have a crate if needed.
About: Heeyyy! I’m Nicci, a life long Austinite, I’m a Mom to two minions, two cats, and a dog. I’m an artist who enjoys going on long walks (hopefully with your dog…🤞) I’m really flexible schedule wise. I don’t mind administering medication if needed. I’m good with all stages of life - puppy/kitties to seniors and anyone in between. I would be happy to help you out with whatever companion care needs you may have. I’m a single mom working the hustle job life. So in some ways I’m a stay at home mom and in other ways I’m a never stop working kind of mom with the privilege of working around the clock when it works best for me. This means I’m home during the weekdays for a great majority of the day, weekends I work more during the days but nothing crazy and I’m home every night of the week. I walk my kids to school every morning and then I continue with a lengthy walk for myself. Your dog would love it! My apartments have a very large fenced in dog park and multiple designated dog potty areas. I’m a leashed walker unless in a fenced in area where they can run and play.
“Consistently wonderful each time I book. Birdie loves her and Maia is thorough and kind. Always happy to book with her and see how happy my pup is on her Rover card. Maia is flexible and goes above and beyond. 10/10!”
“Jessika is amazing! My dog is a bit nervous around strangers but she really won him over. She sends plenty of videos, pictures and text updates so you know your baby is having a great time. I will be rebooking she was superb!”
About: I grew up with a wide variety of animals but especially cats and dogs. I’ve been dog sitting and walking as a side hustle since freshman year of high school in 2016. I moved out and got certified as a wag walker in early 2023. It’s been a great side hustle over the years and I’ve picked up additional skills like training and grooming. I also have two cats as an adult. What has changed currently is leaving my full time job in hopes of connecting with things I love like animals. My parents no longer live in state and I miss my dog friends. I make my own schedule and most of my income is currently from pet care. Open to odd jobs and odd hours, genuinely love the work. I have diagnosed ocd so if you give me a list I will stick to it. I try to go above and beyond when it comes to care and that extra step. Bonding with the animal and understanding their specific personality is highly important to me.
About: My entire childhood (and adulthood) I grew up with animals. Cats, dogs, turtles, ducks, geese, rabbits, you name it. I used to work at a doggy day care and in college I nannied for a big family with a few dogs. I personally have 2 cats myself. I love animals so much and truly wanted to start pet sitting because I just wanted to spend time with animals. I’m totally good with giving medicine, walks, park time, car time, whatever your baby needs. I’m here for it all! I’m in field sales so my schedule is super flexible! I make my own schedule so can fit in any time to see your babies! I drive all over town so can make anything work. I love to make sure your pet gets the care they need - so if that’s outside time for 20 minutes then we will do that. If it’s playing around for 20 minutes then we will do that or if they just want pets, of course we can do that. I currently live in an apartment so all visits would have to be in your home.
