Highly-rated overnight sitters - Buckholts
“Madison and Wesley were great with Cow overnight. Especially a huge thank you for the short notice pick up. We also really liked the updates we got showing Cow getting to hang out with new friends. We really appreciate it. Thank you!”
“Dorothy was amazing! I loved how informative and flexible she was with me as well as how kind she was with Mabel (my dog). She sent me so many adorable pictures throughout the stay and frequent updates about how things were going. She watched Mabel for five nights and I received something every day, which I extremely appreciated. It’s always a little stressful and worrisome to have to leave your furry friend alone, but honestly I think Mabel had her own little vacation 😂 She seemed to enjoy playing in the big yard and making friends. I would absolutely rebook and recommend Dorothy!”
“Isabella was fantastic with our big nervous Great Dane! We loved the pictures and updates as he braved being around her own fur babies. I would absolutely trust her with your own, and will definitely be rebooking!”
“It was a wonderful experience. Shane was very flexible with my drop off and pick up times, and he sent me daily updates with pictures and videos. I think if I pulled up in front of their house right now, my dog would jump out of the car and run to Shane's front door.”
“The pups had a fantastic stay! Megan took great care of them and kept in touch with us. It was their first stay with a sitter so it was a learning experience and we’re so grateful.”
“Toni was great with our pup, he provided pictures and videos which we greatly appreciated. He communicated well with me and I can tell that my pup was safe and loved on by his smiling faces in the pictures and videos. Thank you Toni for loving on our Ace while we were away.”
“My mini Aussie stayed with Jormary for 8 days, normally my dog is quite nervous in new surroundings, Jormary took such great care of her, gave extra attention so she would feel less anxious. I was getting daily updates and pictures. Jormary followed instructions to the t, I am very happy with the care Jormary provided for my pet. Would definitely recommend and I am certain I will book again!”
“My Mei was well taken care of Joel and his wife took very good care communicated every single day sent photos the show progress that they were making with my baby and I was very satisfied with her. She was very well behaved when she came home and I would definitely rebook with them again. it was like she was being taken care of by family.”
“Krysta was absolutely wonderful! We did a meet and greet beforehand and our pup immediately took to her. She was very communicative and flexible and kept us up to date with photos and videos. Our pup can be a Velcro dog but it didn’t bother her and it was very obvious our pup had a great time with her. We will not hesitate to reach out to Krysta again for our pet sitting needs.”
“Excellent job watching my dog. I could tell he had been very well taken care of and rested well. When I picked him up he was full of energy and was happy. Harley will definitely be back. Five stars!”
“I feel so blessed to have found Jordan last minute. She was so patient and sweet to our Aussie who is super timid and anxious. She sent pictures every day to keep us reassured. Coco loved her!”
“Lindsey was absolutely awesome with watching our dog Ace. She’s super responsive, attentive, and accommodating. Ace always has an absolute blast when he stays with her and he always get excited when I pull up in the driveway. Whether its playing with other dogs, fetch, walking or going on runs… Lindsey and her family will make sure your dog never has a dull day and plenty of stimulation.”
“My second time having Kristi and her family keep Tucker, she’s always flexible with my time, responds promptly, and most importantly Tucker is in good hands, I really appreciate all that she does to make the visit effortless”

About: Hello my name is Cayla. I’m from Houston, Tx and I've been an animal lover my whole life. I’ve raised other animals in FFA for my high school years while alson having other house hold pets within the years ( rabbit, turtle, dogs, and fish). I’m choosing to do Rover so I can build clientele and so I can expand my knowledge on dogs outside my pit bull and a few other breeds I’ve dealt with within my family and friends. Hopefully I’m someone you’ll love and trust around your home and your four-legged best friend. I do work from home and only work 4 days out the week so it's no hassle making sure everything and everyone is doing great. During the booking process I do ask for a routine so I can keep everything consistent. I do have doggie treats, extra blankets, training pads, and doggie toys I keep on stand by. In the morning I will open cages and let them move around freely aslong as im home and awake. If they need medication I have no problem giving it to them aswell, I do work from home so that will not be an issue.
“Kaila was ana amazing choice and I would highly recommend. From letting me know about any issues with the house, to making sure the house was secure everythime she left, but mainly for taking such amazing care of Annie! I was really nervous about this sort of arrangement for something so important to me, but her updates and consistent communication about any issues really put me at ease. Whenever I go out of town I will definitely reach out to Kaila first and see if she is available to take care of my girl. Like I said I was VERY hesitant about this whole thing but after my experience with Kaila I would highly recommend her with confidence to anyone in need of a pet sitter. Thanks again Kaila!”
“My boy is usually scared around strangers but Kristen was able to pet him on one of her first visits. In addition she was able to get him inside. She left him with my tv onto a channel with birds. Thank you Kristen!”
“I appreciate the help I have received since July 2025 with the drop ins for my fur babies to go potty. With out Tinisha's acceptance I would not have been able to start my new job. Lots of hugs and thank you!”
“Jasmine was an amazing care taker! She took the time to make sure my cats were well taken care of and provided great communication. Titan and Aspen were so happy to have her come by”
About: I have always had several dogs in my home growing up, am a dog lover at heart, and miss my pups. I work in Waco so I am available anywhere between Waco and temple! Like I said, I work remote 100% of the time, so I don’t have any time or day restrictions really. I am also available weekends, etc. I have lots of love to give& great bully rubs!!

About: Hey there! Taking care of animals is a passion of mine. The unconditional love they give us is just a great feeling. So a little about me, I went to Tarleton State for Animal Science. I want the animals to be comfortable with me and in the environment. Animals deserve extra love and attention, specially when you’re busy all day or going out of town. I’ve worked as a veterinary technician with animals for 8+ years, as well as taking care of animals outside of work. I love all sorts of animals and think they deserve the same care as humans get! Dogs have feelings too! I believe animals need to go out a lot and get exercise as well as socializing. Dogs need just as much love as we need! I will always try to accommodate my schedule to make sure the fur babies have plenty of time to get some fresh air, potty break and some love during the day! When I care of clients fur babies, I always make sure to follow your guidelines with your babies. That being if they needed to be leash walked or they get to run free in the yard.
About: Pet sitting is a rewarding and fulfilling job that requires patience, compassion and a love for animals. I started pet walking and house sitting for family friends and neighbors at 12 years old. This helped me develop a strong bond with animals and taught me the importance of responsible pet care. With two years of experience working at a boarding/grooming facility and currently working at a vet clinic, I have expanded my skill set to include giving pets medication, dealing with and overcoming scared/aggressive behaviors, providing extra care for old/disabled pets. I was also a cross country runner for 6 years so your babies will get plenty of exercise! I understand the value of trust and reliability when it comes to taking care of someone’s beloved pets, and I take pride in providing top-notch care for furry friend that comes my way! Pet sitting is my primary occupation! I’m so grateful to be able to provide around the clock care for your pets, so they can be checked in on as frequently as needed. I offer top-quality care for your pets. Every day, I start with a 3 mile run with my baby, followed by a mix of training, playtime with toys, and leisurely walks filled with exploration. My fur baby is crated during bedtime occasionally but he also enjoy lounging on the furniture during the day. I firmly believe in positive reinforcement and redirection using treats and toys! Rest assured, your pets will receive the utmost attention and care under my watch.
“Jordan went above and beyond to make our cats and parrots comfortable. It was such a relief to know someone was looking in on them and giving them some attention while we were gone!”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, growing up on a farm where caring for a variety of animals was part of everyday life. My experience also includes working as a wrangler out West, where I handled and cared for horses and livestock in a professional setting. From puppies and dogs to larger animals, I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. At home, I have an energetic English Springer Spaniel puppy who loves making new friends and playing with other dogs. We have a fully fenced yard with plenty of room to run, play, and explore safely. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, active playtime, or just extra attention and affection, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and treated like part of the family while they’re with me. Daily updates and photos are always included so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I work outside the home from typically 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM on weekdays and am typically home the rest of the day. This allows me to spend plenty of quality time with pets in my care, including walks, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention. My evenings and weekends are largely spent at home, ensuring your pet receives plenty of companionship and care throughout their stay. Pets are cared for in a safe, calm home with a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. When I’m away at work, all pets stay safely inside. I maintain a structured, secure environment and provide attentive care based on lifelong animal experience, ensuring your pet feels comfortable and well cared for while you’re away.

About: My genuine interest and love for my own babies coupled with their happy, carefree, and free-roam attitudes makes me a prime & the right candidate to be your pet's new friend. I have two furbabies that I absolutely love & adore. I understand the importance and severity of wanting them to go... unfortunately, they simply can't for whatever reason. So, you do the next best thing, you hire me. Give me the opportunity to extend my love, adoration and safe environment to your furbaby (canine or feline). If you hire me, worrying about your pet will be the least of your worries, as it should be. Help me to help you give your pet a vacation-like stay while you're away. You'll be glad you did. I'm retired so I'm home all day. I have lots of time to hang, lounge and play with your furbaby(ies) and I'll enjoy every minute In my home and client's home, the treatment is basically the same. Furbabies are given cuddles, hugs, and attention. They are fed, walked and allowed to run around and squabble in the back yard.
“Dorothy is great! Zoey is a timid, slightly anxious pup, but looked right at home during her first day of doggy daycare. She had a blast playing and lounging with the other pups. Dorothy is patient and very caring, and it shows. I know Zoey looks forward to going back!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs for friends and family, including walks, feeding, and playtime. As a mom, I’m naturally patient, attentive, and nurturing, I treat every dog like part of my own family. I keep you updated, follow instructions carefully, and make sure your pet gets the best care every time. As a full-time student and stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule and enjoy getting outside. I’d love to spend that time walking and caring for dogs and cats I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from the owner. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away.

“I left my Australian Shepard with Isabelle for daycare for two days, as I was dropping him off for the second day he was so excited to see Isabelle which I knew it meant he was in good hands. Isabelle was always responsive and gave me updates while he was with her. She also took him along for their daily walk which I appreciated. Thank you again Isabelle!”
“Jax seemed to have had a fun time spending the day with Jordan and her pets. Jordan was great at sending me updates and pictures. Jax will be staying a few days with Jordan in the near future so it was great for them to spend a full day together getting to know each other.”
About: I'm an animal lover! I always had animals growing up; having cats & dogs. Also had a guinea pig, a chinchilla, several birds, a turtle, bunnies and bearded dragons. Our furbabies are like our children! I am a professional petsitter, fostering dogs & cats, training them and rescuing animals. Currently, I have 4 cats (mine) & 2 bearded dragons and 1 small dog (mom's). I have experiences with seniors and blind furbabies. I also have experiences dealing with flight risk, severe anxiety pets and oral medication as well as injections. **DROP-IN VISIT** I live in Taylor, I can travel to Hutto, Granger, southeast of GT, East of Round Rock, Thorndale and Coupland. **BOARDING - Requirements: * Non-aggressive/low/medium energy (must be ok with other pets) * 100% house-trained includes trained to not chew on household items * Current on all vaccinations and flea prevention * Male felines must be neutered I ask you to provide food and bedding for your furbabies because every pet is different, has different lifestyles and eating/sleeping habits, toys. I have plenty of bowls and plenty of crates (XS, S, M, L, XL & XXL) including a 3 tier crate (for cats) if needed. My schedule is flexible, I'm almost always home. If weather permits, I enjoy going out for long hikes or going to parks/neighborhood for walks. ** Boarding & Housesitting - I'm available 7 days a week. The potty break/meal schedule is flexible on my end. They can go out often for potty breaks, to explore, fetch, and enjoy the sun as they please. Also, will provide outdoor play with engagement of other pups and can do some training as well. ** Housesitting - I will spend the nights with them. Sometimes I will be away for a few hours unless you instruct me for a specific time, such as how long it is ok to leave your pets alone, I will follow your preference. They are welcome to tag along for the ride if they enjoy car rides. -- During my free time I volunteer as a pet rescue member with Trapping, Rescue and Pet Recovery Service (TRAPRS), a non-profit organization. I have been with TRAPRS since they were founded in 2019. When I'm scheduled to pet sit, I will not be available to do a rescue. Only time I'll be away is if someone is able to secure an animal, Ill be out for a quick scan for microchip or if I'm scheduled to drop-in to visit other clients' homes. (I want to be transparent about what I do). I know it can be stressful leaving your family member with a stranger, but you can be confident that your furbaby/ies will be treated as one of the family; given plenty of love, hugs, belly scratches, treats, play time and walks during their stay. I have a fenced yard for your pup(s) to explore, do their business, enjoy the fresh air & flirt with the sun, and play fetch. I will send photos and videos of your furbaby having a great time! You are welcome to reach out to check on them at any time. They will be in good paws!
“My dog takes a long time to warm up to men, hates peanut butter, and isn’t food motivated. Within the first 5 minutes of our meet and greet my dog was eating peanut butter treats out of his hand and happily getting all the scratches. I have no idea how he did it but my dog instantly loved him. When it came time for the booking my dog jumped out of the car and ran straight for his door with out waiting for me. I got a ton of photos and my dog was very relaxed in all of them. I highly recommend Joshua.”
About: While I’ve been around dogs for over 10 years, most of my hands-on care experience comes from being a full-time mama—which means I’m no stranger to routines, messes, or giving lots of love and attention! I also work full-time from home, so your pup won’t be left alone and will get plenty of care, playtime, and snuggles throughout the day. What really sets me apart is that we live a low-tox lifestyle—so my home is a clean, pet-safe space free of harsh chemicals and full of love. Your dog will be treated like family here, surrounded by sweet kids, fresh air, and a relaxed, playful environment. Whether they need a walk, a nap buddy, or a consistent routine, I’ve got it covered—just like I do for my own little crew. I work full-time from home, so I’m able to be with your pup all day.

Safety and trust are top priorities, and we do everything we can to make your dog feel safe, happy, and right at home.
“Krysta and her family were great with my pups. They seemed to have had a good time there and didn’t seem to want to go home with me. I would recommend her and will book with her again.”
About: We have raised 3 different dogs together. Two of those furr babies required medical care and special diets, so we are always very attentive and careful with all pets needs! We recently lost our precious boy River, due to his liver disease and we miss his presence tremendously. So having other pets over truly helps keep us going and having a boost of morale. With that being said, we will give your pet 100% of our attention at all times. You can trust your pet will be supervised and cared for all day. At least one of us is always home to supervise when we are dog sitting so your pet is never alone. We have a small dog park at our complex for some outdoor fun time, and can provide daily walks as well to ensure they get more exercise! We have made our home safe for your dog keeping certain things out of reach. I can update you regularly with picture updates as well!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for quite a while! It started with trick training which turned into completely 6 months at a dog training school and earning a certificate in canine training and behavioral specialist. I am confident in handling and caring for the most difficult pups! From nervous and anxious dogs to high energy working dogs, I am willing to create a safe and effective boarding/care experience for them. My whole life revolves around my dogs so your pups will be loved and cared for during their stay. I have a schedule that allows me to fit any pet care needs. My dogs get tons of outside times, walks, and potty breaks throughout the day so whatever plan your pup needs we can accommodate! I am flexible on creating a system that works best for you pets. I can house dogs that are not good in crates and well as dogs that need to be crated. I have pet cameras throughout the home so I can keep watch at all times! We can come up with a system that works best for you pets! Whether that be multiple walks per day or a special feeding plan!

I also have a dependable car if in-home animal sitting if that is what you are more comfortable with.

I know how hard it can be the travel with peace of mind without your babies with you, and I’d love to be able to help people enjoy your time away from home. Being able to set my own schedule while caring for other animals will allow me the ability to still care for my own animals without pulling time from them. I will do my very best to keep your fur babies routines exactly the same, and love and care for them like I love and care for my own babies.

I have the ability to work evenings and weekends when needed. I will make sure to follow all the instructions given to me to properly care for your pet. I have extreme attention to detail and am able to recognize if there might be a problem with an animal because my job has been to have an awareness about how an animal is acting for the past 10 years. I also have extensive experience with my own pets and different issues they have had through my life.

About: I would love to take care of your pet! I can accommodate whatever care requests needed! I have a comfy home and a golden doodle that would love a friend! I work from home so I have plenty of time to watch your pet, feed them on a schedule, walk them, and give them potty breaks. I have a fenced in backyard they can play in, and a very comfy house where I let animals on the furniture and there’s also plenty of toys for them to play with!
About: I’ve always had a dog involved in my life at such a young age. After I moved out on my own, I got my own fur babies. My dogs have been all over the USA with me. I am a retired truck driver. I love to give as much love & time as I can to my fur babies because we only have them for a limited time. I have a very flexible schedule since I am a self employed. I block off my schedule well in advance so there are no complications when booking. I love to take Coda on a walk in the evening, as we have a decent back yard and she enjoys roaming around it and laying in the sun. I have a huge basket of toys to allow for playing as well as give treats as seen fit.

I am available during the week and most weekends to take care of your babies😊 I have a fenced in backyard that your pet will be able to use anytime! I also have two dog parks in my apartment complex that can be used to get some exercise as well as a long walking trail!
About: I grew up on a 100-acre ranch with 13 dogs, so caring for animals has been part of my daily life for as long as I can remember. I helped raise numerous litters of puppies, which taught me everything from feeding schedules and socialization to house training and keeping a close eye on the little ones. Today I regularly watch my friends’ pets and care for my grandparents’ two dogs — feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. Dogs are my favorite people, and I treat every one like my own. I can’t wait to meet your best friend! I’m a stay-at-home mom, so I’m home the majority of the day and your pup will rarely be left alone. My schedule is flexible, which means plenty of time for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and sticking to whatever routine your dog is used to. The house is quiet and calm, which works well for dogs who prefer a low-key environment. My home is a safe, pet-friendly space where your dog is treated like family. We have a large fully fenced backyard with plenty of room to run, play, and sniff around safely. I have a mini blue heeler of my own who’s great company for social dogs, and I’m happy to keep visiting pets separated if yours does better solo (only have her occasionally). I stick closely to the feeding, medication, and walking routine you provide, keep dogs leashed on every outing, and send photo and video updates so you always know how your best friend is doing. If your dog is crate-trained, I’m comfortable using one for rest or bedtime.
“Kaila was so great!!! With only a days notice she kindly came and took excellent care of our 6 month old puppy. She did exactly what I would have, and even took the most beautiful pictures of him (literally better than any I’ve taken myself?) and I will certainly rebook with her!”
About: I have always had several dogs in my home growing up, am a dog lover at heart, and miss my pups. I work in Waco so I am available anywhere between Waco and temple!

I am very mindful of making sure they have water, etc. I love dogs of all shapes and sizes, can’t wait to meet yours.

“Madison and Wesley were great with Cow overnight. Especially a huge thank you for the short notice pick up. We also really liked the updates we got showing Cow getting to hang out with new friends. We really appreciate it. Thank you!”
“Dorothy was amazing! I loved how informative and flexible she was with me as well as how kind she was with Mabel (my dog). She sent me so many adorable pictures throughout the stay and frequent updates about how things were going. She watched Mabel for five nights and I received something every day, which I extremely appreciated. It’s always a little stressful and worrisome to have to leave your furry friend alone, but honestly I think Mabel had her own little vacation 😂 She seemed to enjoy playing in the big yard and making friends. I would absolutely rebook and recommend Dorothy!”
“Isabella was fantastic with our big nervous Great Dane! We loved the pictures and updates as he braved being around her own fur babies. I would absolutely trust her with your own, and will definitely be rebooking!”
“It was a wonderful experience. Shane was very flexible with my drop off and pick up times, and he sent me daily updates with pictures and videos. I think if I pulled up in front of their house right now, my dog would jump out of the car and run to Shane's front door.”
“The pups had a fantastic stay! Megan took great care of them and kept in touch with us. It was their first stay with a sitter so it was a learning experience and we’re so grateful.”
“Toni was great with our pup, he provided pictures and videos which we greatly appreciated. He communicated well with me and I can tell that my pup was safe and loved on by his smiling faces in the pictures and videos. Thank you Toni for loving on our Ace while we were away.”
“My mini Aussie stayed with Jormary for 8 days, normally my dog is quite nervous in new surroundings, Jormary took such great care of her, gave extra attention so she would feel less anxious. I was getting daily updates and pictures. Jormary followed instructions to the t, I am very happy with the care Jormary provided for my pet. Would definitely recommend and I am certain I will book again!”
“My Mei was well taken care of Joel and his wife took very good care communicated every single day sent photos the show progress that they were making with my baby and I was very satisfied with her. She was very well behaved when she came home and I would definitely rebook with them again. it was like she was being taken care of by family.”
“Krysta was absolutely wonderful! We did a meet and greet beforehand and our pup immediately took to her. She was very communicative and flexible and kept us up to date with photos and videos. Our pup can be a Velcro dog but it didn’t bother her and it was very obvious our pup had a great time with her. We will not hesitate to reach out to Krysta again for our pet sitting needs.”
“I feel so blessed to have found Jordan last minute. She was so patient and sweet to our Aussie who is super timid and anxious. She sent pictures every day to keep us reassured. Coco loved her!”
“Lindsey was absolutely awesome with watching our dog Ace. She’s super responsive, attentive, and accommodating. Ace always has an absolute blast when he stays with her and he always get excited when I pull up in the driveway. Whether its playing with other dogs, fetch, walking or going on runs… Lindsey and her family will make sure your dog never has a dull day and plenty of stimulation.”
“We were so pleased with the care our dog Marley received at Jennifer's home. She was very well cared for and received a lot of love and attention. Jennifer is really good about sending photos regularly 😊. Marley came home happy and healthy. So nice to be able to go on vacation and not have to worry.”
“Katrina was awesome! We had to book last minute to take care of a family emergency out of state and she was friendly and communitive the whole time. Bacon and Bani enjoyed all the cuddles and playing with her sweet dog.”
“Josh is always awesome! Takes great care of my 2 labs and he even took my Coosa to vet due to blood in her urine while I was out of town. Made sure my girl was taken care of. Josh is super awesome with his animals and treats mine like one of his own. Couldn’t recommend him anymore!”
