“Michelle was perfect to watch my puppy all week! She was so kind and sweet to my dog. She would even send photos of her everyday while we were gone and is very communicative. 10/10!”
“Amazing experience. I did not have any worries while I was away. I also think my dog’s experience here was way better and healthier than the big boarding facilities. Bella came home happy and tired from playing with all her new friends.”
“Dana is amazing. Scooter had a great time. They were very attentive and sent me lots of pictures. She also understood and worked around my busy work schedule. I give her 5 stars!”
“Heidi was excellent. She treated Gizmo like we was in his own home. They went for walks, played and in general she let Gizmo feel safe and secure as if he was home. Thank you Heidi as we were so worried to leave him for that many days.”
“This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t have had a better experience with Hunter. Brew came back from his 7 day fun-filled stay with Hunter, Sage and Shadow well behaved and exhausted! I received daily pictures and videos of their adventures, which were much appreciated ? She took such good care of him and loved him like her own. I will definitely be a repeat customer if she’s still willing to take puppies after a full week of Brew ? Thanks again Hunter!”
“Robin was amazing with my new puppy Teddy, He is only 9 weeks old, so I was really nervous leaving him. She made me feel so comfortable and took really good care of him while I was getting everything situated. I could tell he was getting a lot of love and attention, and it made me feel a lot better knowing he was in good hands. I’m really thankful for her and would definitely recommend as she treats each dog as her own. Me and Teddy will definitely see her again!”
“Very attentive, deeply appreciate Leon caring for our 2 dogs. One of our dogs needed an antibiotic every 12 hours and Leon administered on the dot following instructions as well as monitoring urinating to make sure our dog did not have bladder stones. Both dogs came home happy and tired. Highly recommend!!! Thank you!”
“Caitlin’s home was a wonderful place for our dog, Hazel, to stay while we were away! She has an amazing backyard and the home feels very safe and loving for dogs. Caitlin was accommodating of our schedule for dropoff and pickups and sent periodic updates and pictures of our senior pup that put our minds at ease. We feel lucky to have found such a great dogsitter in the area!”
“Our dog had an amazing time boarding with this family. We had a lot of updated pictures, she loved playing with Winnie, and we could tell that she was super comfortable with Aislyn and Carson as she was always cuddling with them. We really appreciated them allowing her on furniture including bed. It was like she never left home. 😊 Thank you!”
“Michelle is absolutely the best! She took amazing care of my fur baby and kept me updated with frequent messages and pictures. I could tell he was being loved and spoiled the entire time. He honestly didn’t even want to come home! I’d recommend Michelle to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pet. She’s truly one of a kind! 🐾❤️”
“Jennifer went above and beyond taking care of Daisy. We have never left her for more than a few days and she always gets anxious when we do, Jennifer made sure she felt right at home in her home. We will definitely use her afain when we travel.”
About: I’ve been pet sitting since middle school, and absolutely love taking care of other people’s pets! I recently graduated and live in an apartment, so I don’t have pets of my own right now, so caring for others pets has been a great way to get my fix of hanging out with sweet animals. My childhood dog is a 15 year old greyhound-lab mix, and he lives with my grandma, so I love visiting him :) I also fostered a tabby while I was in college, and loved having a cat to take care of in school! I work full time remotely, so I can hang out at your place all day with your pets while you’re away. Happy to stay overnight or pop in for the day, as well as take them on walks, clean litter, or whatever is needed. I have a full time job, but it’s work from home, so my availability is entirely flexible! I can stay over at your place during the day while I work, and take frequent breaks to play w your pets, take dogs on walks, etc. At your home, I will make sure to follow all steps provided by the client to ensure their pet is getting the best care. Since the client knows best, I will follow their instructions first, but if the pet needs special attention, I will let the client know first to give them a heads up and ensure the pet is taken care of in a safe and timely manner. All pets will receive plenty of cuddles across the board, though :)
“Synamon and her family did a fabulous job making my dog Candy feel like she was at home. They were all very sweet and genuine. I will definitely book them again in the future. They treat your pet as if she were part of their family.”
“I can't say enough for how wonderful she was this weekend for my family and our dog Samantha. I could not have asked for a better experience with leaving her some where and the peace of mind she gave us all was outstanding with pictures and videos throughout the whole stay. Elizabeth will always be my go to and first choice going forward.”
“Dottie is very hesitant around new people so I was anxious. Angela was very patient with Dottie and before I knew it Dottie felt comfortable. Angela kept in touch with pictures and videos of Dottie. I will be using Angela again.”
“Abby had great communication and sent me daily updates of our pups while I was out of time! Thank you for taking care of Paisley and Moose aka my monster (he’s sweet, but a high energy chocolate lab that can be a lot sometimes, especially if he thinks he can get away with murder 🙄).”

About: Hi there! My name is Haylie and I’m a nursing student at UTMB. I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud owner of nine amazing pups of all different breeds and sizes. Taking care of them every day has given me tons of experience with all kinds of personalities, routines, and special needs. I truly love spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy, loved, and well cared for. Since I was unable to bring my dogs to school with me, I’d love to help take care of others! Whether it’s playtime, walks, or snuggles, I’ll treat your pets like part of my own family! As a nursing student, I’ve learned how to balance responsibility, care, and time management — skills that carry over perfectly into pet sitting. I usually finish my classes around 4 p.m. most days, which gives me plenty of time in the afternoons and evenings to care for pets. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I make sure every pet is well looked after, loved, and secure while their owners are away
“Knowing we have somebody who takes such great care of our cats allows us to go on trips without worrying. We really appreciate Cathy. She puts up with all of our strange requests for our cats, and also takes great care of our plants and other things. She is fantastic. Highly recommended.”
“Hannah was great! Needed a sitter last minute due to issues with previous and she was quick to respond and take over. Very timely and diligent. Kitties loved her and would 1000% book her again.”

She cared for my cat that has just under gone surgery, and she did a great job giving medication on time and performing the prescribed massages and exercise with my cat.”
About: I grew up caring for my own cats and dogs and have also enjoyed being entrusted to care for the fur babies of others when they're unable to. This has included general companionship, playtime, walks, feeding, and administering topical and oral medications.

About: I’ve had cats, dogs, and fish since I was young. I also have previous veterinary and emergency veterinary assistant experience.

I do not have any pets of my own. I don’t have a fenced in yard but can take nice walks or drive to the park.
About: I am a PA by profession, working in both the state & federal systems. I have time & flexibility this summer to help with pet care! I've watched animals for years, helping my neighbors & friends with walking, feeding, bathing, related errands, etc. My schedule varies with my profession, but for the next few weeks I'm free during the week & on weekends, anytime!

“Jennifer was absolutely FABULOUS!! We will definitely be amongst her long list of returning customers! This was our firsts time using a dog sitting service and I was a little bit nervous to leave our two pups with a stranger but within moments of meeting Jennifer I knew our pups were in good hands.

About: Growing up, my home was filled with animals of all kinds from small to large dogs including Dachshund, Husky, and medium to large mixed breed dogs, as well as an outdoor cat, fish, hermit crabs, lizards, and birds. I have been a lifelong animal caretaker and feel very comfortable with a wide range of species and temperaments. One of my most meaningful experiences was caring for my cockatiel who lived to be over 14 1/2 years old under my care. In my teens, I also trained in horseback riding and learned foundational horse care. With dogs, I have experience in structured obedience training up to the intermediate level as well as introducing agility based skills and enrichment work. Currently, I provide consistent care for a senior 19 year old dog in my home alongside a younger high energy Dachshund. This has given me ongoing real world experience balancing senior comfort care with active dogs in a calm and stable home environment. My approach is calm, attentive, and highly individualized. I prioritize each pet’s emotional state, routine stability, and safety with an emphasis on low stress handling and clear communication. My goal is to provide care that feels grounded, consistent, and deeply trustworthy so you can feel fully at ease while you are away. I appreciate detailed information about each pet’s routine, preferences, and behavioral tendencies. This includes separation anxiety, reactivity including leash or sound, fear responses, or any sensitivities. These details allow me to provide the highest level of tailored care. Rates listed are general starting estimates and may vary depending on level of care required, number of pets, schedule, and travel distance. Premium or extended care needs including last minute bookings, extended radius travel, or continuous supervision up to about 8 hours can be accommodated and quoted based on your specific situation. My current schedule is pretty flexible. For drop-ins I'm typically available after 8 am until 9 pm in the evenings. I can do drop ins, walks, and/or doggy day/night sitting. I am happy to give your animals my undivided attention as I walk them or play with them at your residence. I'm very clean, considerate, and attuned to animals. I stay highly communicative and am happy to take lots of photos for updates.
About: I specialize in high maintenance furbabies. Whether you have a puppy that needs extra attention to reinforce training, a senior that needs a soft touch, or they are somewhere in the middle with regular separation anxiety, I will keep your pup on their routine and feeling secure until your return! I work from home part-time so I'm able to accommodate your dog's typical schedule. There are no other pets or children in the home competing for attention. I am able to truly enjoy my time with each pup. I have a fenced in backyard, but if there is a risk your pet will dig or jump , I will keep your explorer on a leash when we are outdoors. Generally, I avoid socializing dogs while in my care.
About: I have always loved dogs! I grew up with a king charles as my family dog. I now have a 3 year old golden retriever. I have worked with many trainers (classes and private) and feel confident in my dog training skills. I am informed on dog behaviors and signals. I care deeply about making sure a dog is comfortable and happy! I am currently in school where I have class for half a day, Monday - Thursday. This means I home quite a bit. My boyfriend is also in school, and he has close to an opposite schedule where he is gone in the afternoons but home in the morning. Our dog is rarely left for more than 2 hours by herself. We have a fenced in backyard. We have a golden retriever and super friendly cat to keep furbabies company. Both of them are good with other cats and dogs. We have plenty of dog toys, balls, ropes, frisbees, anything you could imagine. Our animals are welcome on our furniture with us, so lots of time for snuggles.
About: Hey Y’all! As a full time student in Galveston, work is hard to find but I would love the opportunity to care for your dog(s) while you are out of town enjoying summer! I have open availability just let me know what days you need help and I’ll be there! I am a full time physical therapy student. Pet care fits in my schedule when I am not in class. I have set my pricing to accommodate the various needs of owners. 30 minute walks/drop ins are priced at $20 an hour. This includes feeding/watering your pet if needed! This option is best if your pet can handle being home by themselves but still needs a few check-ins throughout your time away for feeding and potty breaks. (I have had previous clients do one morning and one night drop in, i have had clients do morning, after school, and night visits, and i have had clients request i visit their house every 4-5 hours- this gives you autonomy in how often you want your pets to be visited and the time frames in which i visit!) Overnight stays are priced at $100 per 24 hours. This price was determined based on my drop in price. When staying in your home, I will be providing your pet with ample attention to include 3-5 walks per day ($20x5). This pricing allows flexibility for those who want their pet to have my undivided attention while they are away, or for those who only need the necessities covered to still pay a reasonable price for their care needs. I am open to negotiation for non-busy weekdays/weekends but I do also have to value my time and effort! When I care for a pet in their home, I like to be consistent as possible with how their owner treats them. The pet is in the comfort of their own home, so they should be allowed to be comfortable and do the things they usually do. This involves talking with the owner about what is allowed (can dogs be on the couch, do dogs sleep in the bed) and what does the dog like to do for fun (bath time, fetch, walks, being petted).

I prefer to care for pets in the client’s home; however, if a visit to my home is necessary for periods of time longer than an hour, it is recommended that the client provide materials like food, leash, toys, pet bed, and a carrier/crate, if used.

I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and not stressed while you’re away. I pay attention to their behavior and needs so I can adjust and make them feel at ease. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, I try to keep things calm and familiar so they feel right at home. I treat every pet like my own and genuinely enjoy making sure they’re happy and well cared for.
“Kendra, was great with our Chico. She was very punctual and loving, which we and Chico really appreciated. We felt very comfortable with Kendra taking care of Chico, we will definitely use her again soon.”

“Amazing experience. I did not have any worries while I was away. I also think my dog’s experience here was way better and healthier than the big boarding facilities. Bella came home happy and tired from playing with all her new friends.”
“This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t have had a better experience with Hunter. Brew came back from his 7 day fun-filled stay with Hunter, Sage and Shadow well behaved and exhausted! I received daily pictures and videos of their adventures, which were much appreciated ? She took such good care of him and loved him like her own. I will definitely be a repeat customer if she’s still willing to take puppies after a full week of Brew ? Thanks again Hunter!”
“Very attentive, deeply appreciate Leon caring for our 2 dogs. One of our dogs needed an antibiotic every 12 hours and Leon administered on the dot following instructions as well as monitoring urinating to make sure our dog did not have bladder stones. Both dogs came home happy and tired. Highly recommend!!! Thank you!”
“Our dog had an amazing time boarding with this family. We had a lot of updated pictures, she loved playing with Winnie, and we could tell that she was super comfortable with Aislyn and Carson as she was always cuddling with them. We really appreciated them allowing her on furniture including bed. It was like she never left home. 😊 Thank you!”
“Michelle is absolutely the best! She took amazing care of my fur baby and kept me updated with frequent messages and pictures. I could tell he was being loved and spoiled the entire time. He honestly didn’t even want to come home! I’d recommend Michelle to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pet. She’s truly one of a kind! 🐾❤️”
“Jennifer went above and beyond taking care of Daisy. We have never left her for more than a few days and she always gets anxious when we do, Jennifer made sure she felt right at home in her home. We will definitely use her afain when we travel.”
“I can't say enough for how wonderful she was this weekend for my family and our dog Samantha. I could not have asked for a better experience with leaving her some where and the peace of mind she gave us all was outstanding with pictures and videos throughout the whole stay. Elizabeth will always be my go to and first choice going forward.”
“Abby had great communication and sent me daily updates of our pups while I was out of time! Thank you for taking care of Paisley and Moose aka my monster (he’s sweet, but a high energy chocolate lab that can be a lot sometimes, especially if he thinks he can get away with murder 🙄).”
“If you're looking for a sitter!! She is the one!! My fur babies loved it! She sent daily updates and pictures, and showed them soo much live!!! I will definitely be using her again. Thank you for taking such good care of my babies.”
“Chad was just amazing taking care of our 4 dogs while we went on our week long cruise. He is kind, reponsible and truly enjoyed taking care of our babies. His fenced back yard was perfect for play time and his home is cozy with dog beds and toys. Chad was even willing to cook our dogs' grilled chicken suppers every day. We are so thankful that we found Chad and would 100% recommend him to take care of your fur babies.”
“Ashley was an exceptional sitter. She kept us informed through daily updates and sent pictures of Marley. Marley always appeared happy, relaxed, and content. We are incredibly grateful to have found her.”
“Very good caregiver. My dog was well taken care of and calm. There was good communication, and responsibility was evident at all times. I would definitely trust them with my dog again. Thank you!”
“Angelo has become my first choice for a sitter for my boys. I don't worry about them at all when they stay with him. He is fantastic at staying in touch and I feel like he takes his responsibility seriously while enjoying the time he spends with his charges. Thank you, Angelo!!!”
“I keep forgetting to leave a review, but Susan and her family have really set a new bar for me on what to expect for a Rover stay. She takes care of my doggo like her own, writes down and records all her preferences and needs, and is very flexible. Won't leave my dog with anyone else if I can help it!”
“Skylar was great!! She was super accommodating, communicative, and sent daily updates of how my pup was doing. Everything went smoothly and I would recommend her to others!”
“Ariel was amazing! She communicated very well during Rambo’s stay and sent daily updates and pictures. This really helped us keep our mind at ease knowing Rambo was doing great! 💗 She even gave Rambo a bath before pick up time. We will definitely use her services again! ⭐️”
“This was our second time entrusting my beloved poodles, Coco and Pluto to the care of Emily and I cant express enough how delighted I am with the care they received. She is a true gem when it comes to looking after our furry babies. Communication is key and Emily consistently provided updates and photos during her time with Coco and Pluto. It was heartwarming to receive these messages and know that they were happy, healthy and well taken care of. I highly recommend Emily to anyone in need of a trustworthy, caring and reliable dog sitter and look forward to using her services again in the near future.”
