I can go on & on about Carmen & how amazing she is. Highly recommend booking with her.”

She’s had so much fun and we can’t wait to visit our new friends soon!💕”

“Lori did great as always and was able to cover holidays for me. I am so lucky to have her and the kitties are always glad to see her. Mittie watches out the window when she leaves.”
“Amarantha was AMAZING. I had anxieties about leaving my Leo over a long weekend since he's my little baby. She was very punctual and would communicate with me if she was running late. She even came in a second time since she would be late to the scheduled time to feed Leo. The pictures sent to me were awesome, and Leo seemed very well taken care of when we came back!”
“Very professional and great with our dogs. She’s also very confident around our dogs, which is very important to us, because we have two active breeds. We definitely recommend Frances for all Rover services 👍.”
“Katie was amazing with my cat while I was on vacation! My cat absolutely loved her, and I felt so comfortable knowing she was being well taken care of. Katie visited twice a day, made sure she had fresh food and water, cleaned her litter box, played with her, and gave her plenty of attention and love. She also sent me updated photos every day, which I really appreciated and helped give me peace of mind while I was away. I would absolutely hire Katie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Kellie did a fantastic job caring for our two cats while we were away for 10 days. We were anxious because we had never left them for so long before. Kellie provided photos and updates daily which gave us confidence that the fur kids were well cared for. Kellie also went above and beyond when a pesky raccoon kept sabotaging the outside feeder. We will definitely use Kellie’s services again.”
“Amani took such great care of our cats! I received photos every day and great updates! I could tell they were well taken care of. The litter boxes were clean, and she even washed out their bowls and ensured that everything was neat before I returned!”
“Michelle was lovely! Looked after our sweet cat while we were gone for the holiday. We came back and Juni was happy and fed which is all I care about! She also left the house super clean and locked up when she left. Definitely will be rebooking!”
“Kaleigh is my go to cat sitter! My kitty Mousse loves having her around. She always takes great care of mousse, getting him fresh water, cleaning out his litter box, to even hanging out with him a little bit longer just to give him loves. So happy I can rely on her to always be there for mousse!”
“I’m so glad we went with Lizeth! She dropped in and checked on our two cats while we were away for a weekend trip. It was a last minute ask, and she pulled through! Even coming the day before to meet our littles. She has 4 cats of her own and I could tell she was comfortable with ours. Would recommend working with her and would hire again. ☺️”

About: Hello there! My name is Sofía, and I can’t wait to care of your pet! Here are some things you should know about me : I have one dog living with me. I have volunteered at animal shelters, wildlife rescue facilities, and animal therapy organizations. When volunteering at shelters, I bathed dogs, cleaned up their poop, played with, and walked them as well as played with cats. Additionally, I enjoy outdoor activities very much, so I am definitely in shape to walk your dogs and play with them. I hope I can be of service to you and your dog(s). My backyard is unfenced, except for the patio area and a room sized square for dogs to pee/poop in. Dogs are not allowed on furniture, but they can be on the bed if they stay on top of the blanket. If you know your dog won’t run away, we can play in the unfenced area of the backyard :) I do have a 30 ft leash that I normally use to play with my dog outside. I’m free most of the time. I just need more advanced notice if it is an overnight stay over just a drop in at your home. I will care for your pets however is needed and instructed. I have taken care of multiple senior dogs and dogs that take oral medication.
“Brianna took great care of our two Goldens for a whole week! It was our first time hiring a pet sitter so we were really nervous to have someone come to our home and care for our babies but after meeting Brianna, we immediately knew we were in good hands. We got daily pictures and updates, she was always on schedule and we didn't have to worry about a thing. It was clear that they were very well loved and cared for while we were away. I am so glad we found Brianna - we will definitely work with her again! Thank you, Brianna!!”

About: We wanna watch your sweet baby!!!!!! I love and understand dogs so that means I won’t derail your dog training. I trained my dog to be so polite that she now weaponizes it against me lol.

About: *10 minutes from Austin Bergstrom Airport* Hi there! I’m Stevie, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember.

About: As a pet owner myself, I know leaving an animal in the care of a stranger can be anxiety-ridden, but I can promise you that I will care for your animals as much as I care for mine. Their wellbeing is my number one priority and I will diligently watch them as though they are my own. You can also be assured I know how to properly watch over your animals as my years of fostering taught me how to care for dogs of all ages and personalities. Further, as a dog parent to seven rescues, I have seen and managed a variety of different behaviors. There is very little that I haven’t come across, so nothing surprises me at this point. I am also well-versed in the unique challenges that may come with caring for senior dogs as three of my own are above the age of 12 now. I am sensitive to the extra or unique care seniors may need, and am happy to do whatever is needed to make them comfortable. Outside of animal-specific experience, I work remotely full-time, which gives me the flexibility to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care—whether they’re staying with me or I’m staying with them. Additionally, as an attorney, I understand the importance of being timely, following instructions, and providing consistent communication. I will always be where you need me to be at the times you ask, I will always follow any instructions you provide, and I will always communicate and provide updates on your animals while they are in my care. For dogs staying with me, I’m home throughout the day for plenty of attention, supervision, and frequent potty and play breaks in our fenced yard. They’re welcome to hang out with me while I work or find a comfortable spot to relax and nap. When I’m house sitting, I can work remotely from your home so your pets can enjoy the same companionship while staying in their familiar environment. I’m happy to follow their usual schedule for meals, walks, potty breaks, medications, playtime, and downtime. Wherever I’m caring for your pet, I do my best to maintain their normal routine and make their time away from you feel as comfortable and familiar as possible. Whether I’m caring for your pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are my priority. I pay close attention to body language, behavior, and each pet’s individual needs, and I’m happy to follow their normal feeding, medication, exercise, and care routines. In my home, I have a fully fenced yard and plenty of space for dogs to play, relax, or take a break when they need one. I’m experienced with multi-dog households, different play styles, and recognizing when a dog needs some space. I also have gates to block access to stairs or separate areas of the home when needed, as well as multiple large crates for dogs who are crate-trained and feel most comfortable having their own space. When I’m house sitting, I’ll care for your pets and your home with the same attention I give my own. I’ll follow your instructions closely, maintain your pet’s usual routine, respect any household rules or safety precautions, and make sure your home is secure while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are safe and well cared for.
About: I have owned a dog my entire life, worked in a veterinary clinic, and was a service dog raiser for 3.5 years while getting my Animal Science degree. My friends and family also trust me to sit their dogs when they are away. I am currently unemployed so have a lot of availability during the week. I am usually busy on weekends but have some availabile at times. I will stay in a home with a pet, or bring a pet into my home. The home visits can include walking, feeding, playing, and other requests!

About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was a little boy and I age always loved all my pets. I love matching their energy and giving them the love they want and need. Currently, I'm going to school and I have a lot of time before and after school to hang out with any ones pets. I love getting up in the morning and hanging out with my cat so I believe that I would love to do the same with other pets. I love giving time to my cat. She's extremely curious and loving hiding in tiny areas of my apartment. I recently finish reorganized my room so that she has a bigger area to explore.
About: I’ve taken care of friends and neighbors animals since middle school but began taking it more seriously around 13-14. I’ve animal sat elderly dogs with special needs, puppies, and mostly small dogs! But I’ve also happily watched cats, rodents, birds, and fish so all animal friends are welcome! Excited to meet you and your best friends. I love animals and honestly any excuse to meet new ones is very exciting. I can always work Sundays and Fridays and I have time Tuesday and wednesday evenings to check in on them when needed or go on a little walk. My cat is fed 3 times a day for a total of 2/3 cup of food, he has a play routine before bed, is let on the balcony for fresh air with his harness and a line connected to the door so he cannot get to the edge of the concrete. He takes his flea meds every month, and goes to the vet every 6 for a little check in as he’s on a small weight loss journey. I work 6-8hrs a day 5 days a week but luckily he has a a cat roommate to nap and play with while I’m gone
About: I’m a huge animal lover and have two dogs of my own, so my house and life are always full of wagging tails and happy paws.

Whether it’s walks, playtime, or extra cuddles, I’ll make sure your pet feels right at home. Caring for animals is already a part of my everyday life since I have pets of my own. Walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure animals feel comfortable are all built into my routine. Pet sitting fits easily into my schedule, and I genuinely enjoy making time for animals so they get the attention, care, and cuddles they deserve while their owners are away. Whether pets are in my home or I’m caring for them in theirs, I try to keep their routine as close to normal as possible so they feel safe and relaxed. That means sticking to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure they get lots of love and attention. I pay attention to their personalities and comfort levels and always make sure they feel cared for and at ease while their owner is away.
About: I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and needs. That’s why I take the time to get to know them and create a comfortable, stress-free environment whether I’m walking, sitting, or dropping in. I’m also happy to administer medications, follow special diets, or keep up with training cues you’re working on. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. I’ve structured my schedule to be flexible so I can give each pet my full attention, whether that’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays. I’m usually up early and keep my calendar open for pet care bookings throughout the week, including weekends and holidays. What to Expect: ✅ Daily updates with photos and notes ✅ Flexible scheduling ✅ Clean, respectful care of your home ✅ Emergency preparedness & basic pet first aid knowledge ✅ Bonded & insured (if applicable) I know how important it is to feel confident and relaxed when leaving your pet in someone else’s care. Let’s set up a meet & greet—I’d love to learn more about your furry friend and how I can help.

About: From owning pets for over 10+ years, I've changed careers and learned new skills so that I would be able to properly take care of my pets by being as present as possible. I'm a dental hygienist, data analyst, web developer, and just an all around nerd - all license and certified, but my passion for animals never faded. One of the best things that I've learned about training pets is, instead of saying no and disciplining, we should guide them to what we want them to do and treat to reenforce the positive behavior rather than punish the negative (I promise, it takes longer, but it keeps them nice) I'm currently working part time and will be available to help with the little ones! I'm currently waiting on my paperwork to process to become a licensed dental hygienist, in the mean time I'm looking forward to diving into one of my passions, helping giving great care to your pet(s)! I would prefer to take care of pets in your home rather than my apartment (to save ourselves from any potential housing issues), and that way there's no extra stress for the little one having to learn a new place while they're getting familiar with a new face!
About: I'm Julian, a proud dog dad looking for more canine companions! I’ve had my dogs Lulu for over 13 years and Batman for over 1 year. They are members of my family, just like your dog is for you! I'd love to help you and your furry friend and we will both welcome them to our home. Lulu, Batman and I love going to the dog park to meet other dogs. When your dog is in my care, I will treat them like my own! There's nothing like seeing a wagging tail and happy smile on the face of a dog you're caring for. I promise to make sure that your dog is healthy, happy and comfortable while you're away. Exercise is important to me and I don't rest until the dog is worn out, making sure we both sleep great at night. When you book with me, you can rest assured that you're leaving your dog in the hands of someone both experienced and loving. Your dog will be begging for another visit once they meet me, my wife, Lulu and Batman! P.S. I have once lived with a cat for 4 years and am also comfortable taking care of your feline.

About: I grew up in a household with 3+ cats consistently combined with many other animals that I grew to love and take care of over the years. My parents have been in animal care almost my entire life so i’d be up to taking care of any furry friend! I am a full-time college student in the fall, lifeguard in the summer, and my work ethic is on-point! And never will I purposefully walk out on an opportunity to watch your animals! I will ensure clear communication with the owner throughout my entire care process! Making sure your furry friends are taken care of properly is my top priority!
About: Hi. Send me a message and let me know how I can help! I have had dogs all of my life and enjoy spending time with mans best friend. I currently have one lab/pit mix and would get a dozen more if I could! I have experience with many different types of pets and I’m happy to help out with whoever you have at home. In the past I’ve cared for: rabbits, chickens, fish, turtles, cats and dogs! I work from home some days so I have the flexibility to come walk, pet, feed, potty and watch after you pup as needed through the day. You tell me what would make your pet happy and I’ll do my best to accommodate! I work only with friendly dogs. High energy is fine as that is what I have at home! I am accepting bookings for boarding, drop-ins, and house sitting.

“Mariana is the best! This is our 3rd time booking with her. She always keeps us updated on our dog throughout his stay and responds so fast to any questions that we have.”
“Sarah is the best! I almost don’t want to write a review because I want to gate keep her for myself! My dog clearly loved her, he looked so comfortable and happy in all of the photos she sent me. She made my trip so stress free knowing he was in such great hands. She sent lots of photos and updates, I would definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone.”
“Thank you, Robyn & Desmond, for taking great care of our pups. We never worry about them while we have to be away. We appreciate you guys being a second home for them.”
“Kyle was INCREDIBLE!! it was my first time leaving my pup, and he eased all my nerves! He kept me updated with so many pics and videos throughout her stay, and I’m pretty sure she was more sad to see me because she knew she had to leave. She’s had so much fun and we can’t wait to visit our new friends soon!💕”
“Adriana was great! She sent frequent updates while I was away and continued to be flexible as my travel plans changed. She accommodated drop off and pick up late into the evening which was a big help… all around great experience!!”
“Cassandra and Jason are wonderful! Very communicative, quick to respond, and very sweet with my older pup. They were able to handle his glaucoma eye drops regimen with no issues. They shared so many cute photos! I feel very good about leaving my sweet pup with them and know I will reach out to them soon for another stay!”
“Cheyanne was great! She touched base with me at least twice a day. It’s been awhile since I’ve left Copper with someone we did not know, but she put me at ease. I also love that she only sits 1 dog at a time. Would definitely use her again!”
“Aine was such a wonderful sitter for our pup! She is extremely responsive and always sent great pictures. She was flexible when we had some last minute travel changes and helped us feel at ease during our entire trip. We would highly recommend Aine!!”
“My pup Sadie loved her stay with Marc and his pup. She got exercise and attention and I got regular updates throughout her stay. I highly recommend anyone who is interested in boarding their dog and not sure how they will do to try Marc and his pup. Marc was great and if needed again, I would be happy to use his services again.”
“Fern had a wonderful time playing with your dogs. She will definitely stay again in future. She got lots of snuggles and I received updates with photos during her stay.”
“Kayla is wonderful - always responsive and takes great care of Zag! We are sorry that she is moving out of state and will miss her! Highly recommend without reservation - your dog will be happy ;)”
“Alison was awesome! She took him on walks, played with him incessantly and sent lots of pictures. Super easy to communicate with and flexible. Our dog Max came home so happy! Would 100% recommend :)”
“Super sitter! Graciously accommodated a schedule change due to weather and took super care of my pup. Sent great pics showing mine and her dogs enjoying her spacious back yard. 10/10 will rover again!”
“Ryan was very detailed to Molly’s high energy and I appreciated his efforts in getting her numerous walks while she was in his care. Would certainly recommend him to anyone!!”
“Elizabeth was amazing with my doggies! Super communicative, flexible, and always quick to respond to any questions I had. I felt totally at ease knowing my pups were in great hands. I also appreciated the photo updates throughout the stay!!”
“Christine was extremely accommodating and absolutely fantastic with my pup. She kept him entertained and kept me up-to-date on all their adventures. Maverick is currently dreaming of his next stay with Christine!”
“Having Bourbon board with Giovanna was an absolute delight. They got to meet ahead of time and he took to her immediately. He can be anxious and he takes time getting comfortable with strangers, but within 20 minutes they were already bonding. She was very responsive and communicative throughout this experience. She sent the right amount of updates, so I was able to enjoy my time away without any worries. After 5 days with her, he barely wanted to come back home with me! I would highly recommend Giovanna as a boarder if you are looking for a safe and loving environment for your pups.”
“Jon and his partner were great! Very communicative and flexible. We’ve got a whole pack of dogs, each with their own personalities and medical cases, and they rolled with the punches no problem at all.”
