She was also extremely flexible and provided good communication. Thank you for watching Mr. Mellow!”
“Amazing! Not only did Lindsey have the perfect setup for my large dog's stay with a wonderful house and yard, but her care for my pup was amazing.

I wouldn’t hesitate to trust Cynthia and her family with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for thoughtful, dependable dog care.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals on my family’s farm over the past 8 years. I've helped take care of dogs, cats, horses, goats, and cows, which has taught me a strong sense of responsibility, patience, and how to handle animals with different needs and temperaments. As a college student home for the summer, I fit pet care into my daily routine by planning around my work schedule and training. I work as a lifeguard in Temple and I'm a college athlete so I must get my workout in each day. I make time for feeding, walking, or checking in on pets, depending on what's needed. My schedule is flexible in the summer months. I ensure they have a clean, safe, and comfortable environment, with fresh water, proper feeding schedules, and plenty of love and attention. I follow any specific instructions provided by the owner, including medication, dietary needs, or favorite toys and activities. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or simply offering companionship, I prioritize each pet’s well-being as if they were my own.
“We had a lovely experience booking Andrea. We got lots of updates, pictures, and videos of our kitties. Andrea was very thoughtful and gave our cat his medicine even when we were about to be home so we had one less thing to do after a hectic day. I would definitely book again if our cats needed watching ☺️”
About: I’ve worked at a boarding facility working with dogs and cats. I cleaned the kennels, fed, watered and played with the pets that was being boarded there as well as baths when they had an accident in their runs. I’m currently not working so I’m available at all hours and day! I’m looking to make this a full time job so I’m available whenever you need me! I have a small kennel currently but I have 4 dogs, 2 of which love other dogs but will crate the others for the safety of your pet!
About: Hi there! I’m a devoted cat mom of three and an experienced feline caregiver with over 6 years of hands-on cat care under my belt. 🐾 I first got into pet care through fostering — from tiny neonate kittens to nursing mama cats and even cats recovering from illness. Those years taught me how to give comfort, patience, and the right kind of care to cats with all different personalities and needs. Whether your cat is playful and energetic or shy and prefers quiet companionship, I know how to help them feel safe and loved. I’m happy to provide: ✨ Feeding & fresh water ✨ Litter scooping + cleanliness ✨ Playtime & enrichment ✨ Medication support (if needed) ✨ Nail trimming ✨ Plenty of cuddles and updates! I understand how nerve-wracking it can feel to leave your fur baby with someone new — but I’ll treat your pet like my own and keep you reassured with photos, messages, and attentive care every visit. Can’t wait to meet your furry friend! 🐱❤️

Perfect for high energy dogs - Durango
“They'd taken care of my dog very well as a family. They sent a lot of videos and a picture, and walk with her. I feel so comfortable during her stay. Thank you so much!”
“Dustin was more than accommodating and responsive when booking day care. His house and yard are very well suited for dogs. Murphy seemed to have enjoyed all the doggy and human interaction while we enjoyed the Waco area.”
“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.”
“I found Courtney via Rover and needed her services within a few days. She was very gracious and set up a meet & greet to see how my dog would get along with hers, and then took on the task of taking care of my furbaby the very next day! She always updates with pictures, so that I will have zero worries about how things are going. Her house has a nice size yard and she takes my dog, Ellie, on several walks throughout the day. Ellie is always really worn out when I get her home which is a feat on its own! I will be continuing to use Courtney's services. Highly recommend! ”
“She was very friendly, updated me multiple times with pictures on how my pup was doing! I was gonna be running very late for pickup and she was very accommodating!! Definitely will be reaching out to her again next time i have to go out of town!”
“Jessica was great with Moose! She sent me photos while I was gone and kept me updated throughout the entire time. Her puppy played so well with Moose. They had the best time together.”
“I needed doggy daycare while I visited Waco. I am so glad I found Andrea. She was great!! After talking when dropping him off I knew he was in good hands. Andrea gave me updates and was flexible with pick-up/drop-off times. She is very caring and I knew my dog was loved while I was away. Would definitely recommend to anyone in the area!”
“Noelle had a blast at Fuzzy Faces! She doesn't spend much time with other animals (other than backyard chickens), so we love that she gets the opportunity here to play with other friendly pets of all sizes. She definitely plans on coming back!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my love for the Lord and my lifelong love of animals!

I take him on daily walks and enjoy exploring nearby parks and trails, giving pets plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. We have experience giving oral medications and can care for active or senior pets. We provide a loving, stress-free environment, follow routines closely, and keep owners updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident your fur baby is happy and safe. Thank you for the opportunity and to care for your pet while you’re away, they will be in great care! I have a flexible schedule, so your pet will receive constant love, attention, and care. Morning and evening walks are part of the routine, and if your furry friend needs to run and burn energy, trips to a nearby trail can be included for exercise and fun. There is a securely fenced yard where your dog can safely play and enjoy time in the sun, and my dog, Siffre, provides companionship and socialization. Crating can be accommodated if needed, and all playtime is supervised to ensure safety. When visiting public parks, dog parks, or trails, pets are kept leashed and closely monitored at all times. Plenty of love, attention, and mental stimulation are provided, and any special routines or instructions can be followed to help your pet feel comfortable and at home.
About: I’m a dependable animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes and temperaments. I’ve spent a lot of time around dogs, cats, and other small animals, and I’m comfortable handling feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and basic care routines. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to watch their pets because I treat every animal like my own—making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. My goal is always to provide a calm, reliable environment where pets get plenty of attention, activity, and love.

I will have a crate if you want me to crate your dog. If not, they will be able to hangout with me or on a dog bed! 😊
About: Long time dog lovers adopted by a pregnant stray cat shortly before our precious senior Brittanys passed. Our pet love has grown! 💜 I do miss the dog walks and silliness, and would be happy to share that again. I have a flexible schedule, and while our cats are mostly pretty chill, we have a separate space they can go if things feel tricky. At present I am a stay at home mom to one elementary aged child so my hours are flexible throughout the week. My husband frequently works from home and we are a pretty low key family of introverts. We have a large fenced yard for play and love to take walks on leashes. Our home is pet friendly and cozy. We have two cats who have their own space they can retreat to when needed. Our son is in kindergarten and has been around pets since birth.

About: I am a stay at home homesteader that has three rescue doggos that live inside and a guardian livestock dog that spends her days taking care of the farm. We have hatched, raised and spend our days giving all the snacks to almost 50 chickens, 17 guineas, and 6 ducks. We have 2 goats one of which is about to give us a third. 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.
About: I have always had cats in my life since I can remember. Now I have 3 of my own. 2 inside and one outside. I know how to feed, clean and care for all pets needs. We also now have a dog in our family and he is spoiled rotten. He likes to go on walks, play fetch All of our animals are cared for in the mornings when we wake up. Everyone gets fresh water and food. My long haired cat gets combed daily, medicine in his eyes and eyes cleaned out. By that time it is time to feed everyone I have a fenced yard for my dog and my two cats stay in the house. My outside cat comes in and out all day, eating and playing with the other kitties.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was a child. I’ve had turtles, dogs, cats, a snake, geckos, ferrets, and rats! All of my animals have or have had play areas, toys, treats, and enrichment activities. Depending on the animal and their personal needs, they also get outside time. I’m currently working full-time on Rover, so I have ample time to take care of your furry companions and ensure they receive all the necessary care. I have a fenced-in yard and two friendly dogs. All my animals have or have had playrooms or designated areas where they can relax and enjoy themselves.

About: I have been pet sitting since I was 11 years old. My experience ranges from newborn puppies/kitties to senior animals as well. When I was 16, I was working at a ranch as a dog/puppy tech handler. I helped clean, groom, and train miniature Australian Shepherds. As well as I handled mama dogs and their babies! While there, I also fed a feral colony and acquainted myself with some of the barn animals (Horses, cows, bulls). Over the years, I have fostered and bottle-fed various litters of puppies and kittens. Now I own 5 cats and 2 dogs. I am comfortable with big or small animals! I look forward to caring for y'all! Currently, I am taking courses for medical coding/billing for AAPC. So my classes are every Tuesday and Thursday from 6 pm to 8 pm. But other than that timeframe, I am completely flexible! I do prefer to be able to go to the client's home as I feel that is what most pets are more comfortable with. Whether you have cameras or not, it is not a problem. Any type of special latches, gates, key codes, etc. Is not a problem either. Animals hold a very special place in my heart, so rest assured, your baby will be my baby.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats of every shape and size, i have experience with all health issues and can give meds as well as shots. i can also groom ( 4+ years experience with all breeds) as well as care for your fur babies in any aspect they need! I have a very flexible schedule and can fit any of your time needs. I also can stick to your normal schedule so your dog does not feel out of place. I put your pets as a priority. I have a fenced in yard, and offer leash walking potty breaks. I also have a few pups of mine inside that are friendly and ready to play. I can also offer a crate for your dogs and keep them comfy no matter what they need!
“Brittany was awesome!! This was our first time using Rover and we were nervous about leaving our girls, but Brittany made it a great experience. She kept us up to date with pictures and comments. She even went above and beyond and brought our packages inside for us. 10/10 recommend. Will definitely be using her again!”
About: I consider myself the perfect caregiver. Flexible schedule, lots of love, high energy. With references! I have been dog/house sitting for friends regularly for a few years, and a pet enthusiast/caregiver my entire life! I have experience with multiple types of animals. I am a part-time stylist looking to fill my extra time getting paid for something I love to do. My two Siamese cats, Pixie & Dusty, are pretty low maintenance. They have dry food/water dispensers and get wet food as a “treat” at dinner time. My Great Dane puppy, Memphis, needs a little bit more of my time. If I stay over at your house, I need to make sure my dog is kenneled by 8pm, and let out the next morning no later than 6:30am. My schedule is very flexible otherwise! At client’s homes I always follow instructions carefully. I prefer to have a few notes of written instructions to reference. Instructions can be printed out or sent to my phone. My animals are pretty low-maintenance, so if I end up sitting locally at a clients home, it’s not a lot of trouble. I don’t mind sleeping/cuddling with your furbaby at night. ❤️
About: I have had pets my whole life, coworkers and friends rely on me to help care for their pets while they’re gone. I have all kinds of experience with more than cats and dogs. I am a stay at home mom. I adjust to things as need be. Consistency is key but things happen sometimes. We have a fairly routine household. I keep pets on leashes at all times. Things can happen or other animals can come by. I am very easy going with the needs of each fur baby.

About: Hello, I’m Mallory and I have 3 dogs and a ferret that I adore! I am comfortable with almost any indoor pet, including rodents and reptiles. I was a member of FFA in high school and showed goats in youth fairs for several years. Throughout my childhood and adult life, there have been 2-5 pets in the household, as well as outdoor livestock. Rest assured the following will be provided during your pet’s stay: Fresh food and water, adequate indoor/outdoor playtime, neighborhood walks, baths, and several comfortable resting areas. I will make sure your furry companion feels safe and happy while you enjoy your time away! I work part-time from home and have plenty of time to attend to your pets needs. If I leave the house for any reason, I always return within 2-3 hours for potty breaks. I am able to pick up and drop off due to my flexible schedule. My dogs are nothing if not spoiled! However, they are supervised almost 24/7 and have ample opportunities to play or potty within my fully fenced yard. My 3 dogs will keep your furry friend company, if you so wish. My dogs have free rein to the furniture, living, kitchen and dining areas whether I am home or not. If you are more comfortable with your pet in a crate when I am away, that can be arranged. In addition, my dogs have access to their food and water all day, but it can be put away if your pet has a special feeding schedule. I am very flexible and understand all pets have different needs and personalities!
About: I love all dogs! I believe with my whole heart that dogs are special souls and they deserve to have all the love and attention! My top priority is to make sure your furbabies will be taken care of and feel safe with me. Play time, treats and snuggles are all important and your furbabies will have my attention 100% when they are with me. A little about myself, I am 34 and have an awesome husband who loves dogs as much as I do! We don't have children yet but have 4 dogs who we absolutely adore! They are our world! I look forward to getting to meet and make new friends here and mostly to meet new and precious dogs to help take care of! They will have my have all my attention while they are in my care. My husband and I love to keep our pups active and making sure they feel all the love from us! I can provide different activities depending on what yur furbaby likes.

About: Reliable, active, and caring dog sitter who treats every pup like family. I provide personalized attention, plenty of playtime, and a safe, loving environment so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I’ve always been the person friends and family trust with their pets because I’m calm, observant, and genuinely invested in their well-being. By trade I’m an ICU nurse, so I naturally pay close attention to routines, quirks and comfort levels, and I adjust my care to each pet’s needs rather than using a one-size-fits all approach. My goal is for you pet to feel secure, loved and happy and for you to feel confident that they’re in good hands. By trade, I’m an ICU nurse, and am currently taking some time away from the bedside to focus on something a little more peaceful, like taking care of pets. My schedule is wide open, which means I’m flexible with days and times I’m available. I used Rover when I worked 12 hour shifts in the hospital, so I know what I wanted in a dog walker for my dog. I want you to feel comfortable and carefree while you’re at work or away from home and I’m taking care of your most treasured companion. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When house sitting, I respect your home and your pet’s routine, keeping things consistent so they feel secure while you’re away. I’m attentive to details, follow care instructions closely and keep a calm, predictable environment. On walks, I prioritize safe routes, proper leash handling and awareness of surroundings and weather, I like to tailor walks to your pet’s energy level and needs I communicate clearly and provide thoughtful updates (with lots of pictures!) so you can feel comfortable with how your dog is doing.

“We boarded our often shy dog with Lacey this weekend and she took such great care of her. We got good reports and pictures of snuggling on the couch! Thank you, Lacey. We won’t hesitate to bring her back.”
“Sweet and enthusiastic sitter. Whole family loves dogs. They take great care of our girls. Luna and Nova had lots of fetch and snuggles. I was able to relax on our trip because I knew my dogs were taken care of.”
“Amazing communication and fantastic experience to work with. My dog had a wonderful time, and the sitter went above and beyond to provide pictures, videos, and updates on how he did. 100/10”
“Cynthia and her family kept Maggie and Benny for three nights, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the beginning until I picked them up, communication was easy and reassuring, and it was clear they truly enjoy caring for dogs. Maggie and Benny were happy, comfortable, and clearly well loved while they were there. Knowing they were in a safe, attentive, and family-centered home gave me complete peace of mind. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust Cynthia and her family with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for thoughtful, dependable dog care.”
“Our pup was def in good hands! She did a great job keeping me updated through the few days he was with her made me feel at ease. Great with communication as well and answering questions I may have had.”
“Absolutely amazing at communicating and my dog looked like he was having a blast in all the photos I got. Booked last minute before my trip and they were a miracle find especially since im new to the area”
“Whitney always takes first class care of our boys! She’s been so kind to us and is truly a wonderful person with an amazing family. Dizzy and Wilson look forward to their visits every time and that makes our lives much easier when we have to be away from them.”
