About: I’ve been a dog owner my entire life (50 years). I am a registered nurse and work from home. I have 1 dog of my own, Bailey, 6 year old Shih tzu. She loves to play and make new friends! I work from home and take my dog out to potty and walk every 2-3 hours. Your dogs will be welcome inside during the day, and supervised when in the back yard. I do have to limit my in home boarding to hypoallergenic dogs due to allergies. My yard is fenced. I always supervise my dog while outside, and always on leashes while in front and on walks. Your fur babies would be my fur babies… I’d love them as my own.
“This is the first time I have ever left pets with a sitter so I may have overwhelmed Jack with detailed instructions. When I dropped off my two dogs they took to both Jack and his family immediately. Gee, I thought they may not want to leave. Just kidding. He sent timely photos and that was reassuring. Would I book again? Definitely. Thanks Jack.”

“Karen and her Husband were so good to Harley!!! We were updated throughout his stay! He had a blast playing with her other dogs and exploring the property- will definitely book again in the future!! 10 stars!!!!!”

About: I've loved and cared for dogs for as long as I can remember. Their unique personalities, playful spirit, and quiet companionship have always held a special place in my heart. Whether your dog is outgoing or shy, I'll provide gentle, patient, loving care and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule, allowing me to provide dependable, attentive, and loving care while giving each pet the time, patience, and attention they deserve.

“This was the first time we’ve used the Rover app. From the moment we met Shelby we new this was the perfect person to sit our Pepper. She is an amazing person who went out of her way to make our experience as enjoyable & pleasant as possible. She is a very genuine & caring person , and we will definitely use her again if available Thanks Shelby!”

About: I have 30+ years of pet care experience not only with my own pets, but also friends & family that I have taken care of. I am very friendly to all animals and know how to interact with the most timid or aggressive dogs. When I meet a new animal, owners tell me that I must have a sixth sense because the animals never react so well to anyone. I tell the owners that they must know I am a dog lover and enjoy being with animals more than I do people. I work from home so will be with your furry child all day. I have two Black Labs of my own that love everyone! References available upon request.

“Emily is amazing and she takes excellent care of my cat and dogs. She always checks in and sends photos and goes over and beyond with my fur babies!! Thank you Emily!!”


“We absolutely loved Jailee! She was so easy to work with and communicated with us the entire time during our trip. She treated our cat like her own family and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to take care of our baby!”

“Kaitlyn has taken such good care of our cats on two occasions now. My husband and I love knowing that they are getting such good love & attention while we are away. Kaitlyn is communicative & trustworthy. We will definitely have Kaitlyn sit for our critters next time we are traveling!”

About: I always joke to friends that we have a zoo! I am truly an animal lover through and through! We currently own 2 horses, 3 Great Danes (“horse-lite” haha), 2 special needs cats with cerebellar hypoplasia (the wobbles), a green cheek conure and a ball python. In addition to dogs and cats, in the past I have also owned an iguana, hedgehog, ferret, red-eared slider turtle, goats, llamas and probably something else that I’ve forgotten. I mention this only to say that I am not scared of helping out with whatever animal that you have. I am comfortable administering medications or helping with special needs animals. I am also comfortable helping with horses and livestock in addition to household pets. Let me know how I can make your time away from home as worry-free as possible!! I am currently at home full-time and I am available to drop in to feed and interact with your animals multiple times throughout the day. I follow your instructions for how you’d like your pets contained during the times when I would not be at the house. I only walk animals at your instruction.

“Sherry took such great care of my boy. She really made me feel at ease leaving him and she made HIM feel relaxed and happy during their drop in visit. She played with him and spent extra time while I was out for an extended period. Plus she understood all my concerns and was flexible with my changing schedule. So happy we found her.”

“Rachel is amazing, I'm so glad I found her! She cared for my two fur babies like they're her own. They were very content at her place, and she kept me updated with texts and photos. I'll definitely be using her again!”


“We had a great experience with Moira! She took wonderful care of our senior kitty while we were on a family trip. She communicated with us daily and sent photos so we could always see how Nessa was doing. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our cat was in such caring and reliable hands. Moira was professional, attentive, and clearly loves animals. We highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again in the future.”

“Taylor was great with Sully. I booked with her very last minute. She came over on a Monday to meet Sully and Tuesday she walked him 3 times while I was away all day. She kept me updated and I came home to a very happy dog.”


“Kirsten is absolutely FABULOUS! She communicated with me every step of the way, sent lots of photos, and took extra special care of my dog while providing walking and feeding services. She went above and beyond! Highly recommend her for your pet care needs!”


“Ysla is great with our kitties & makes me feel at ease leaving them in her care. She's easy to communicate with, responds in a timely manner, punctual & a kind hearted person.”

“We are traveling in an RV and had a long day scheduled, and our pups really needed mid day walk. Kaitlyn came for a brief visit the day before to meet Copper and Penny and then came promptly as scheduled for their walk. Really appreciated the help, Thank you Kaitlyn.”

About: Hi there! I’m Jailee, and I’ve been caring for animals my whole life—from my own pets to those of friends, family, and clients. I have hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, and I’m confident handling everything from daily walks and potty breaks to feeding, administering medications, and providing lots of love and playtime. I’ve worked in veterinary clinics, fostered rescue pets, and even run my own small dachshund breeding program, so I know how to read animal body language and respond calmly in any situation. Whether your pup needs a high-energy walk or a quiet cuddle buddy, I tailor my care to meet their individual needs. You can count on me to treat your pet like one of my own—with patience, compassion, and attention to detail. I’m reliable, communicative, and always happy to send updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in great hands! I’m currently enrolled in college courses online, which gives me a super flexible schedule and allows me to spend most of my time at home with my animals. Since I work from home and don’t have to commute, I’m available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care. Your pets will never be left alone for long—I’m usually just a few steps away, whether I’m studying or relaxing with my own dogs. My routine revolves around animal care, so I’m happy to accommodate special feeding times, medication schedules, or extra play sessions. Weekdays and weekends are both open for bookings, and I’m especially available during mornings, afternoons, and early evenings. If you ever need last-minute help, feel free to reach out—I’ve got the flexibility to jump in when needed! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where your animal will feel secure, loved, and well cared for. I have experience handling pets with medical needs, behavioral quirks, and separation anxiety, so I always pay close attention to body language and individual routines. I never leave pets unattended outside and always use secure leashes, crates, or gates as needed for their safety. My home is free of hazards and is kept tidy and stress-free to create a relaxing space for animals to decompress. You can count on me to treat your pets like family—with patience, kindness, and constant supervision. I also send regular updates with photos or videos so you can stay connected and confident while you’re away. Trust and transparency matter to me, and I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your pets are in responsible, experienced hands.

“Our pup loves his mid-days walks with Ellie. She is very communicative and gives great feedback on each of his walks with pics and details. We can rest easy knowing he is in such good hands!”

About: I grew up with 3 big dogs who were truly my best friends <3 I loved to take care of them including walking, feeding, and bathing them. I now have a cat and dog of my own who are everything to me. I am currently in between jobs and will have all the time to dedicate to your animals. I have limited availability Sunday-Thursday before 12pm but can work about that if need be. I will fully respect your wishes for your pets as long as it is respectful to your pets. My dog loves her crate and I have an extra crate as well.
About: I have always had a conscientiousness and innate knowledge for dog care and connection. I treat and love every dog as if it were my own which means....they are family. Because of my lifelong love for pets, I worked for a pet nutrition company for years where I focused on pet care and well-being. I interacted and learned from trainers, groomers and pet professionals. I am comfortable with dogs that are big and small, young and old, and any breed. And...while I don't "own" a cat, I am happy to care for them too! I will care for your pets as if they were my own and I will do everything it takes to make sure every furry face has an ear-to-ear smile and everything they need to be healthy, safe and content. My doggo and I recently moved back to Texas from Colorado and are enjoying being back with family here. As we continue to settle in, I would love to help you and your family in your pet sitting and/or feeding and walking needs. My availability is flexible and wide and I'm here to help take care of your pups and kitties! I am extremely conscientious about pet safety and welfare so you can rest assured that your fur kids are in competent and capable hands. If there are emergencies or urgent situations, I have the maturity and confidence to remain calm and address the need quickly. Additionally, if you would like your dog to have a playmate during my visit, I have a very "dog-friendly" dog who loves to play and would be more than happy to offer her services. (This would only be per your request)
