“Jennifer was very kind and flexible, especially since I almost had a change of plans at the last minute due to family illness. It was a stressful weekend for me but Jennifer made me feel at ease, knowing that my doggo was in good hands”
“Very attentive care for our dogs, they took them on walks, played with them outside and ensured they were in a safe environment. We were provided pictures and video throughout our dogs stay. Drop off and pickup was a breeze, highly recommend.”
“Cindy, thank you so much for taking great care of Adam while we were out of town. And thank you for all of the great updates that I got each day. He looked very happy when I picked him up. Loreen Fields.”
“Rochelle was tireless in her care of my dog during an extra busy Thanksgiving holiday. She took him in on short notice, helped him socialize with other dogs, and gave him plenty of affection during his time with her. She definitely knows what she's doing in caring for multiple animals in her home, and her positive energy and guidance really made an impression on my pup. He had a great time.”
“Julie and her family were so sweet and phenomenal with our 4-year old golden retriever! They took her in and treated her like family and she was all smiles when we picked her up! You’re in amazing hands with this kind-hearted family… absolutely recommend!!!”
About: I’ve cared for animals since I was 10, including dogs, cats, and farm animals. I have experience administering medications and handling high-energy breeds, driven by my genuine love for animals. Since I work from home, I’m home all day, making it easy to provide attentive care. I can take pets on walks throughout the day and ensure they’re happy and well cared for. In my home, I ensure a safe and fun environment for all pets. I have a fenced in backyard for exercise and enrichment. My two friendly dogs make great companions for your fur baby, and I can crate your dog if needed. I’m very hands-on, spending time playing, interacting, and ensuring they feel loved and cared for.
“My dog loved being with Barbara. I’d never left him anywhere before. I felt very comfortable when he was with her. She responded quickly to any inquiry and sent me photos while I was away. Recommending Barbara is my pleasure!”
“Nancy was an MVP taking care of my dog. Nancy was super kind with my dog, she walked my dog as she needed, also my dog was able to stay in Nancy's furniture like the sofa and the bed, my dog enjoys those places. I highly recommend her to sit your pet.”
“Spencyr was so helpful watching Millie when we went out of town last minute. He was extremely responsive and made sure to send plenty of videos to ease our mind while we were away. I felt extremely grateful that we got lucky with how great Spencyr was while watching Millie.”
“I am so happy to have had my dog stay with Claire, Craig, Scarlette and Penny. Her home and yard are ideal for dogs and Jake had a great time. It’s the first time I’ve ever left him overnight and Claire sent me texts and pictures to let me know he was doing great. I’ll definitely be back.”
“This was our first time using Rover and Justyne was awesome. She answered all of our questions and kept us very well informed about the whole process. She does take care of several dogs at once however, when new dogs are brough into her house, she makes sure they are introduced to the other dogs one at a time so it is a calm stress-free process. Justyne is very calm and patient with each dog. Normally after we bring our dogs home from being boarded, they immediately rush to the water bowls then outside to do their business and are sleeping the rest of the day due to the stress. After we brought them home from being under Justyne’s care, they did not even go to the water bowl and were pretty much back to their normal routine as soon as we got home. This tells me they were very well taken care of and we will definitely be using Justyne next time we need a dog sitter.”
“Darlynh is the best and I'll recommend her over and over. She sent me pictures to see how my buddy was doing. Cooper was shy initially and, I felt bad leaving him. But before I made it home, I received a picture of him all settled in and comfortable. If I could give her 10 stars, I would.”
“Left Pancho in really good hands! I could tell he was comfortable right away. I also got multiple updates and pictures throughout the day which I appreciated a ton! Layla and Teddy were the best hosts.”
“Shawndra had my babies for about 11 days. They were spoiled, loved and so well taken care of. They loved their time with Shawndra. It was so nice to be able to go on vacation and not have to worry about them at all. She sent pictures and kept me updated throughout my trip. I will definitely use her again.”
“Anthony was very kind and made sure that our pup felt comfortable and at home. It was our dogs first time going to someone else and he was very understanding of that!”
“I had a good experience in boarding my 2 Rottweilers ages 9 and 11 months to Luis. My female pup is on her development age where she acts skittish and growls when approach by people she does not know. Because of this behavior and having a big pup, I requested a meet and greet to see if Luis can handle my dog. On the meet up, as expected my female pup acted nervous and growled to Luis but Luis was so patient and gentle to took away her fear and slowly earned her trust. During my dogs 3 night stay, Luis took care of my pups like as his own pet. My pups really had vacation of their own, enjoying to Luis’ beautiful dog resort while my family are out of town. Luis has perfect place for dogs where they can have fun for a lifetime.”
“Corina and her family were a Godsend. In the midst of a family emergency and really hard week, Corina was quick and easy to book with and sent loads of photos and videos of my pups. She has a large backyard for playing, was careful with them in the heat, and I could tell my dogs loved her. She let them be part of her family during their time together and that brought so much peace during a difficult time. I'd recommend her to anyone!”

“Kristen was wonderful cat sitting for my scaredy cats. She sent pictures everyday and cared for these furry babies, allowing me to enjoy my trip. I would ask her to cat sit again. Thank you Kristen!”
“Katherine did an amazing job watching my cat. He was excited to see her and felt comfortable with her right away, which gave me some peace of mind. She was easy to communicate with and always kept me updated, and sent me plenty of pictures and videos throughout his stay. It was clear that he was well cared for and happy. Safe to say, my cat would absolutely love for Katharine to watch him again. I highly recommend her.”

“Daniella is the best. She takes extra care with our cat who is not the most outgoing, and even has made friends with her, Daniella makes sure that everything is done, and goes above and beyond if something extra needs to be taken care of. Thanks Daniella!”
“Amber showed up on time from the initial meeting with my cat Tora and every subsequent visit. She made sure to ask about Tora's routine so that Tora was as comfortable as possible while I was away. Amber even left me a gift as I recently moved into the neighborhood. I recommend booking with Amber, you will have peace of mind while away from your pet.”

“My girls love Cole and Casey! Even my antisocial cat hangs out with them!!! They are great communicators and take such good care of my babies. I especially love the calming music they play for the cats :) it’s such a fun touch!”
“Karrington is the best cat sitter! We plan our vacations around her availability because our cats really seem to enjoy time with her. She is communicative, treats our kittens like they were her own, and I trust her with the house and the kitty babies. Our littlest is very shy, but always warms up to Karrington pretty quick and that’s a huge honor. Thanks Karrington! You’re the best!”
“Chantel did a great job and I am so glad she took care of my dog while I was away. Communication from start to finish was really good. I highly recommend Chantel!! Thanks for everything!”
About: I’ve had animals my whole life! I have a dog of my own, I watch my friends and family’s dogs all the time. I love animals and would take such good care of them!

I walk my dogs on leashes and harnesses. If I’m in your home I will do whatever yall ask me to. I love to give treats if yall are okay with that.
About: I was raised in a pet family and learned many skills that I use in my day to day life like responsibility, integrity, loyalty, patience, and kindness. My Uncle gave us his cat when I was in middle school and at first, I was weary, but I fell in love with her. I loved cuddling and holding her, listening to her purr, and hanging out. She was so kind and sweet, which made me want more cats in my future! I have cat-sat for others and it's been fun to learn each one's unique personality! Some are calm and some are so goofy/energetic. With owning and watching a cat, I feel confident in my skills of: cleaning out their litter box, spending time with them, playing with them, feeding them, and loving on them. I cannot wait to have the opportunity of meeting more cats in the future!

“Pat and Claudette were wonderful with our little Cannelle Claudette is real professional who has been taking care of dogs for many years. She doesn’t take on more than three dogs so that she can give them her full attention. I would definitely recommend them to take care of your pets.”

About: Growing up, my wife has taken care of many dogs both at home and professionally at vet offices. In 2019, She opened up an at home boarding services where we had experience with a wide variety of breeds and ages. We cared for a lot of older senior dogs as well as blind and hearing impaired canines. I am almost always available. Pet care just about naturally fits into my core daily routine. I'm an early riser and always have been, my cat rarely lets me sleep in. I have a large fenced yard and a shaded porch with a fan in the backyard. I am willing to allow trained and non-aggressive dogs stay in my home, if that's what the dog or the client might like or prefer. Your dogs will be free to roam but supervised. Free walks no matter the length of stay, just bring a leash and collar your dogs love.

“Carolyn was absolutely amazing with my dog. I just adopted her 2 1/2 weeks ago and she made sure that Zoey was absolutely comfortable and taken care of and always communicated with me while I was gone. Absolute five stars and I will be coming back and using her for all my needs!”
“Professionalism from the beginning. Lots of communication throughout the whole visit. He put my mind at ease and my pup had a BLAST. I will be booking again!”
“Norman seemed very content when I picked him up, no issues, he was in good spirits, this is a reflection that he was a good match for Cecilia and her family. We went home and had a yogurt cream cone, his favorite treat.”
“Laura was amazing with our sweet timid Dot, and was patient in letting her warm up. By the end of the day our girl was much more comfortable and even giving cuddles. Thank you so much Laura.”
“Absolutely delighted with the care provided by Kaylee! Our 8-year-old dog, who struggles with anxiety, and a list of other things was in the best hands. Kaylee took the time to understand his needs and created a comforting environment for him. Her patience, attentiveness, and genuine affection made a world of difference. Bruno was in the best care, and Kaylee sent photos to show that every step of the way. Some of the photos brought tears to my eyes because i could truly feel my Bruno was in the best care! This was my first time using a service like this, and i was probably more anxious then my boy because he would be gone for 9 days. We returned to a happy, well cared for, relaxed boy, and it’s clear that Kaylee went above and beyond. Kaylee has two other dogs and my boy got alone just fine with them even tho he is super shy. I highly recommend Kaylee for anyone seeking a compassionate and skilled dog sitter!”
“Alli and Monty enjoyed their day at Pam's with her and little Speedy. She said pictures frequently to let us know they were comfortable and relaxed. They have a lot of energy and she was able to handle them well. She was also very flexible in allowing us to expand the time period she watched our dogs because of last minute needs. Thank you for your help, Pam!”
About: Hi! I’m a passionate pet lover with over 14 years of experience caring for dogs. Originally from Colombia, I’ve raised dogs always making sure they feel comfortable and understood no matter what! I’ve been in Texas for 11 years and brought my own dogs along for the journey. Right now, I’m the proud owner of a 12-year-old West Highland Terrier, who’s a sweet senior pup. My other dog, a senior Chow Chow, sadly passed away a few months ago after battling cancer. Throughout her journey, I gained invaluable experience in caring for a senior dog and learned the deep commitment and compassion required to ensure their comfort and well-being. I truly believe pets are family and should be treated with the same love, care, and respect as any family member. I’ve helped neighbors and friends with boarding, daycare, and walks, and I’d love to do the same for your furry friend. Whether it’s a relaxing day at home or a fun walk, your pet will be in good hands with me!. I'm currently working from home so I can make sure take your pups for potty breaks often as needed and if I leave home, will be for couple hours to run errands. At home, we have a fenced backyard where they can roam freely and play, and we’ll make sure they have fresh water and food regularly.
About: We love your pets like they’re our own. We have been around pets most of our life and would love to help care for yours. I’m a Stay-at-home mom in the neighborhood and I have plenty of time to spend with your pets and love on them for you while you’re away. I can do whatever you need and care for your pet just like you would in your home or mine. I will take great care to keep them cozy and safe.
About: I have one small dog, Gizmo, who is 14 years old. He weighs 6 pounds, only has a few teeth left, and is spoiled rotten. I am a realtor and work out of my home, and I figured I could spend some of my time taking care of other's dogs too. I am a real estate agent and work from home, so I have a fairly open schedule to take care of your fur babies as needed. In my home I have a well fenced yard and a small doggy door which allows them to come and go as needed. I can also stay the night at your house instead and take care of your pets as needed, with walks, feeding, medicine, and lots of cuddles.
“Tammy and her husband were very sweet and took Bubs and for a daycare visit with last-minute notice when our previous sitter had to cancel. Bubs had a good visit and played with two other really sweet dogs that she was sitting. Tammy was flexible and very easy to get along with.”

“This is my second time using Jennifer and I’ve already booked her services again for the next time when I’m out of town. Her flexibility and availability to work with my schedule has been absolutely amazing. She is great at sending updates and notifying me when she’s on the way to my house and every important detail about my pets.”
About: Imagine having a stranger enter your house, then grab and kiss your face! Unfortunately, well meaning pet lovers assume your dog or cat wants to be pet, cuddled, and squished, all while unintentionally ignoring polite yet clear cut off signals from your pet that say "no thank you." Hanging out with a sitter for the day should be as low stress and fun for your pet as possible. That's where I come in. With over 12 years of animal care experience, including 3 years of working with and training behaviorally sensitive, fearful, and easily over-stimulated dogs, I understand the importance of moving at your pet's pace. I can quickly read and interpret canine body language to know if your dog is saying "more please" or "please give me some space." My experience includes 2 years working in specialized boarding for fearful, reactive, and sensitive dogs, 7 months of shelter canine behavioral modification, and a solid foundation in positive reinforcement dog training. When with me, your pet will enjoy enrichment through fun puzzles and/or basic training games. I hold my IAABC-ADT accreditation (International Association of Animal Behavior Consulting - Accredited Dog Trainer) and utilize low stress methods endorsed by FearFree Pets. Both FearFree Pets and IAABC hold their members to the highest animal treatment standards (viewable on their websites) so you can rest assured your pet is in safe and caring hands. My available hours for in-home pet care services are 8AM to 3PM Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Please contact me for additional availability on a case by case basis. My approach to animals is at their pace. I don't force them into anything they are uncomfortable with or fearful of, and I pair my presence with lots of delicious treats.
“Sam understands our Oreo. Moving into a new home and having to adjust to different schedules. Sam was patient in letting Oreo adjust to this situation. In time, they will be best buds.”
“Alanna did well for stepping in when we needed someone last minute. She showed up on time and our dog loved seeing her. I will definitely keep her in mind as a backup for future occasions”

“Spencer did a great job. He listened to my notes. He was friendly and affectionate with my buddy. My girl had a great time on the walk and there were plenty of notes and pictures!”
About: I’m new to Rover, but not new to dogs! I grew up in a 5-dog household, so chaos, cuddles, and constant tail wags have always been normal for me. I’ve also been dog sitting for my grandma since I was about 12 (22 now) whenever she travels, helping with feeding, walks, and general care. Now I live on a ranch with 3 dogs, plus horses & other animals. I’ve spent my whole life around animals and feel very comfortable caring for dogs of all personalities and energy levels. I genuinely enjoy spending time with them and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. As a business owner with a flexible schedule, I have the ability to adjust my routine to accommodate pet care on my days off. I take Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday off, and I’m available after 3 PM on Saturdays sometimes earlier upon request. This gives me plenty of time to provide reliable care, whether it’s walks, playtime, or overnight stays. I prioritize ensuring pets receive the attention and care they need during my available hours. When I’m watching pets at their home, I make sure to follow their normal routine as much as possible so they feel comfortable and at ease. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just hanging out, I keep them busy and happy while giving them some love and attention. I also take care to keep their space tidy and make sure everything is safe for the pets. My goal is to make them feel like they’re getting all the love and care they need while their owner is away.

“Jennifer was very kind and flexible, especially since I almost had a change of plans at the last minute due to family illness. It was a stressful weekend for me but Jennifer made me feel at ease, knowing that my doggo was in good hands”
“Cindy, thank you so much for taking great care of Adam while we were out of town. And thank you for all of the great updates that I got each day. He looked very happy when I picked him up. Loreen Fields.”
“Rochelle was tireless in her care of my dog during an extra busy Thanksgiving holiday. She took him in on short notice, helped him socialize with other dogs, and gave him plenty of affection during his time with her. She definitely knows what she's doing in caring for multiple animals in her home, and her positive energy and guidance really made an impression on my pup. He had a great time.”
“Blair was awesome to work with and made our first experience with DogVacay a great success. She was quick to reply, extremely flexible, and even went above and beyond by not only bathing our pup but also washing her bed/belongings. We will certainly utilize her services again in the future!”
“Julie and her family were so sweet and phenomenal with our 4-year old golden retriever! They took her in and treated her like family and she was all smiles when we picked her up! You’re in amazing hands with this kind-hearted family… absolutely recommend!!!”
About: I’ve cared for animals since I was 10, including dogs, cats, and farm animals. I have experience administering medications and handling high-energy breeds, driven by my genuine love for animals. Since I work from home, I’m home all day, making it easy to provide attentive care. I can take pets on walks throughout the day and ensure they’re happy and well cared for. In my home, I ensure a safe and fun environment for all pets. I have a fenced in backyard for exercise and enrichment. My two friendly dogs make great companions for your fur baby, and I can crate your dog if needed. I’m very hands-on, spending time playing, interacting, and ensuring they feel loved and cared for.
“Spencyr was so helpful watching Millie when we went out of town last minute. He was extremely responsive and made sure to send plenty of videos to ease our mind while we were away. I felt extremely grateful that we got lucky with how great Spencyr was while watching Millie.”
“Jeffrey and his family watched my dog for almost a week and kept me updated throughout his stay! My family and I would highly recommend them. I would use them again too! Thank you so much!!!!”
“I am so happy to have had my dog stay with Claire, Craig, Scarlette and Penny. Her home and yard are ideal for dogs and Jake had a great time. It’s the first time I’ve ever left him overnight and Claire sent me texts and pictures to let me know he was doing great. I’ll definitely be back.”
“This was our first time using Rover and Justyne was awesome. She answered all of our questions and kept us very well informed about the whole process. She does take care of several dogs at once however, when new dogs are brough into her house, she makes sure they are introduced to the other dogs one at a time so it is a calm stress-free process. Justyne is very calm and patient with each dog. Normally after we bring our dogs home from being boarded, they immediately rush to the water bowls then outside to do their business and are sleeping the rest of the day due to the stress. After we brought them home from being under Justyne’s care, they did not even go to the water bowl and were pretty much back to their normal routine as soon as we got home. This tells me they were very well taken care of and we will definitely be using Justyne next time we need a dog sitter.”
“Darlynh is the best and I'll recommend her over and over. She sent me pictures to see how my buddy was doing. Cooper was shy initially and, I felt bad leaving him. But before I made it home, I received a picture of him all settled in and comfortable. If I could give her 10 stars, I would.”
“Left Pancho in really good hands! I could tell he was comfortable right away. I also got multiple updates and pictures throughout the day which I appreciated a ton! Layla and Teddy were the best hosts.”
“Shawndra had my babies for about 11 days. They were spoiled, loved and so well taken care of. They loved their time with Shawndra. It was so nice to be able to go on vacation and not have to worry about them at all. She sent pictures and kept me updated throughout my trip. I will definitely use her again.”
“Anthony was very kind and made sure that our pup felt comfortable and at home. It was our dogs first time going to someone else and he was very understanding of that!”
“We can’t say enough good things about our experience with Dayna! From the moment we booked her, it was clear how knowledgeable, caring, and attentive she is. Our dog was so happy, comfortable, and well cared for, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. We loved the updates and could tell Dayna truly treats every dog like her own. Reliable, kind, and experienced—this is exactly the kind of sitter every pet parent hopes to find. We are so grateful!”
“I had a good experience in boarding my 2 Rottweilers ages 9 and 11 months to Luis. My female pup is on her development age where she acts skittish and growls when approach by people she does not know. Because of this behavior and having a big pup, I requested a meet and greet to see if Luis can handle my dog. On the meet up, as expected my female pup acted nervous and growled to Luis but Luis was so patient and gentle to took away her fear and slowly earned her trust. During my dogs 3 night stay, Luis took care of my pups like as his own pet. My pups really had vacation of their own, enjoying to Luis’ beautiful dog resort while my family are out of town. Luis has perfect place for dogs where they can have fun for a lifetime.”
“Corina and her family were a Godsend. In the midst of a family emergency and really hard week, Corina was quick and easy to book with and sent loads of photos and videos of my pups. She has a large backyard for playing, was careful with them in the heat, and I could tell my dogs loved her. She let them be part of her family during their time together and that brought so much peace during a difficult time. I'd recommend her to anyone!”
