“I am so happy to have met Jackie and Todd. They love dogs. We left our doggy several times and she is so happy there with them. They have a great space for play time, they take the time to send photos, they gave feedback about care, and you can feel the genuine interest in the wellbeing of all the doggies they take care of. They are our friends now!”
“Our dogs had a wonderful time at Andrea's! They had access to a dog door that made it even special for my dogs who love to chase squirrels! We enjoyed her so much that I ended up booking more days with her! Highly recommend! Thank you!”
“Jamelah was patient with us and our Belgium Sheppard. This was our first time using Rover with this pet. By the time we returned, she had our guard dog playing with her pet. We were thrilled. I appreciate her flexibility with each pet. She didnt require a crate, and allowed our dog to sleep on a rug by the bed. Exactly like she sleeps at home. We received pics and she responded right away to needy dog parents :). We will aways use Jamelah if she is available.”
“My dogs had plenty of socialization with other dogs and people. They had room to run and chase outside. Dustin is very communicative and sent lots of photos and videos. Dogs had fun during their stay with Dustin.”
“The crazy freeze threw some scheduling issues at us and Lacey could not have been more kind and accommodating. And our pup was warm and safe by her fireplace! So grateful.”
“Jalen had a wonderful long weekend with Jessica! I was so appreciative of all of the updates (and photos/videos) throughout the weekend. It put my mind at ease knowing that Jalen had plenty of time outside, playing fetch and just enjoying the wonderful yard! He’s an anxious doggo and Jessica was so sweet to make sure all of his needs were met. Would definitely recommend!”
“Erin and her family were amazing and took great care of my dog. She updated me daily with pictures, videos and what was happening throughout the day. Erin and her family really cared about my dog, making sure she felt loved and comfortable in a new environment. I will absolutely be using them again in the future and highly recommend them!”
“We were very happy with Lucy’s stay with Jeanette. She sent us lots of pictures and updates during our trip. We have boarded Lucy before at a place with lots of other dogs. Lucy came home much more relaxed and happy after staying with Jeanette. We definitely would board Lucy with Jeanette in the future.”
About: Hello! My name is Yazmin and I’ve loved all 4-legged creatures since I could walk on my own two. Ever since I was little I have been surrounded by animals. From horses and goats on grandma’s farm to parakeets and dogs in my own backyard. I currently have 2 furry friends, one siberian husky who loves a dramatic flare and one yorkshire terrier who, although smaller, is just as mischevious. These pooches are family so I can only make sure that they are well taken care of when I’m gone, which is what all fur parents want, expect and deserve. I hope to provide that same love and care for your own furry friends. I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes but am currently limited to only caring for dogs that are 20 lbs max. I have experience with puppies as well so no pup left behind! Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Thank you and I hope you and your pooches have a paw-some day! 🐾 Although I work full time, I dedicate as much time as I can to my own pups and you can expect for me to do the same with yours. However, I am available full time for boarding most holidays and summers so your furry friends can be taken care of no matter the event. I live in a large home with lots of yard space to walk your pup! I have two dogs, one outdoor who has his own fenced in area and one indoor who has just as much love as I to give. If need be, I can accommodate the indoor space so that your pooch may remain separate from my indoor dog. Your dog deserves to feel welcome, safe and protected so please feel free to express any concerns you may have. Crate and bed must be provided but fear not, more than enough space is available to accommodate your pup!
“Britney watched my 2 schnauzer puppies for 5 days. She offered a meet and greet beforehand which was a kind gesture. My puppies were not yet completely potty trained so I knew they would be a handful. I was a little nervous but she reassured me that they would be fine. She communicated with me daily. Ioriginally booked a late pickup but Our flight was late so I wasn't able to pick that evening. Britney kindly agreed to pick up the next morning. I won't hesitate to use her again.”
“Celeste was very friendly and responsive when wanting an update on how Coco was doing. She was very thorough with questions about Coco's eating schedule, walking habits, and the little details on how she acts. She took her on walks plenty of walks. Also, can't thank her enough, she allowed me to extend Coco stay for an extra day due to my brother wanting to stay out of town longer.”
“Definitely recommend Whitney! She took good care of my dog, Romo, and even went beyond by spoiling him. Making him feel like he's at home. Romo definitely enjoyed his stay there.”
“Jessica offers excellent home away from home boarding services. Comfort & care were provided for both of the boys. If they had their way, they would have stayed. Thank you Jessica!”
About: I have always had a special place in my heart for animals. It is our responsibility as humans to take the best care of them. Every dog is special and deserves to be attended to appropriately. I am a Waco local and student at MCC studying to become a teacher. I’m currently working part time most weekdays until 6 pm. I can take appointments starting at 6:30 which is perfect during this Texas heat. I wouldn’t mind doing later walks when the weather is cooler. I will always make sure your pet is healthy and happy! My goal is to take extraordinary care of your pet and make sure it has everything it needs
“Dena is such a great dog sitter! Her genuine care for the well-being of our anxious dog was clear. When we picked up our dog, she was happy, smiling and looking at Dena as if she has known her forever. Thank you again!”
About: I don’t just pet‑sit — I love on your animals like they’re part of my own little pack. From belly rubs to long walks and cozy snuggles, your fur babies get all the care, attention, and heart they deserve. Kittens/Puppies/Elder/Special Needs Animals Morning: I start the day with your cat — breakfast, fresh water, gentle snuggles, and a little playtime to ease into the day. I check in on their mood, energy level, and any special needs so the rest of the day stays centered around them. Midday: I’m home for the most of the day, keeping your cat company, offering enrichment, supervising any outdoor time they enjoy, and maintaining their routine. If your cat is comfortable and settled, I may step out for essential errands, always making sure their needs are fully met before I leave and right when I return. Afternoon: More focused attention — play sessions, quiet companionship, grooming if they enjoy it, or simply being nearby so they feel safe and supported. Their comfort guides the pace of the day. Evening: Dinner, cozy wind‑down time, and extra affection. I stay home to ensure they feel secure, relaxed, and cared for as they settle in for the night. A day in my care is all about your cat — snuggles when they want closeness, playful moments to spark joy, supervised outdoor time for safe exploring, gentle walks or calming car rides if they enjoy them, and a routine built entirely around their needs. Whether they’re nursing, growing, aging, or require special attention, I make sure every moment feels comforting, enriching, and full of love.

“Michaela was incredibly helpful, communicative, and responsible. She did a great job watching my two cats for me and did everything I asked. Plus, she cared for my sick cat and kept me updated on how he was doing. I would highly recommend her for anyone wanting to leave their animals in good hands.”
“Brittany was a lifesaver for me last week! I messaged last minute needing a drop-in sitter for my cat while I was going to be out of town. She responded almost immediately and was extremely communicative, providing photos, and lots of love to Rodger while I was away. She filled up food, water and made sure he had all his needs met. He was a happy boy upon my return and I am so grateful!”
“Lacey is phenomenal! We needed some one to check on our cat daily for about 10 days and she sent beautiful pictures of the little tiger. I would definitely recommend her and will be using her again in the near future!”
“Sara did a fantastic job for us, as always. Our sweet senior kitty loves seeing her and is so happy and contented in the photo updates she provides, and when we get home. Sara also goes the extra mile in leaving things neat and tidy for us when we return. She really is the best! Genuinely caring and reliable. Highly recommend!”
“Erica once again saved the day! Taking time out of her schedule to check on our Cleo girl, she always makes sure to communicate and send lots of photos, perfect pet sitter! 💕”
“Max was great! This was my first time booking someone to house sit, and he was kind and patient while I asked all the questions. My cats loved him! They took to him immediately.”
“Excellent care for my diabetic pup and her golden retriever brother. Very thorough and kept in contact regarding real-time weather changes, etc. Monitored cat siblings and helped with little extras as needed.”
“Leaving my dogs is always tough for me because I worry so much, but Angela was an absolute lifesaver. From the moment I met her, I could tell she was caring, attentive, and truly loves animals. She followed all of my instructions perfectly and sent me the best photo updates throughout the day. The extra time spent throwing the ball and playing in the yard meant the world to us. It made being away so much easier knowing my dogs were in such great hands. Highly recommend!!”

“Kristy is amazing!! So thankful she was able to take care of my cat while I was gone. She was very attentive and loving. He doesn’t warm up easily to strangers but she had such a warm presence that he absolutely loved her!! Definitely will book again!! Thank you again Kristy!!”
“Jadyn was excellent! She took great care of our cats, followed our schedule for them, and made sure they had the companionship they need while we were away. I hope to work with Jadyn again!”
“Dustin has made my first time experience with Rover amazing. He made sure to keep me updated with how Bella responded to him and took pictures on their walk. He definitely treated her like his own. He made her really happy during his visits. I would definitely use him again. 10/10”
About: I've taken care of dogs (and other animals) since I was a 12, but they were mostly my own. While in my last years of college I started watching friend & family dogs as a part time gig and it has become fairly consistent ever since. I love all animals and I've had the joy to watch many different kinds over the years...even some farm animals! Some might call me nuts, but I have watched a total of 8 dogs at one time. I'm always up for a little bit of chaos when it comes to pet sitting and I really enjoy giving owners the peace of mind that their babies are in good care. I just started a hybrid job, my work schedule is very flexible. For younger dogs I'm able to be at home more should their typical schedule require it. I only offer in home pet sitting. Over the years I've learned that it works much better for the pets to be in their usual environment. I like to come into the home and adapt to their life so its as stress free as possible. By doing so this also gives me the opportunity to "house sit" and keep an eye on the place as well. If needed I will collect the mail/newspaper/packages, water the plants, assist with any maintenance appts etc. Before going to a new home, I insist on coming by for a meet and greet to meet the dog/s and get a lay of the land to make sure both parties are comfortable.

“J&T are terrific! They understood my pet's personality the first time they met him. They also put me and my husband at ease about leaving our pet there for several hours twice a week. My dog never really has been around other dogs on a regular basis, so we were a little nervous about his behavior but he was fine and I believe J&T had a lot to do with that. We look forward to having our pet stay with them in the future ❤️❤️❤️”
“Andrea was great! It was so much more personal than a typical large boarding facility. She was sweet with the pups and even sent videos! You can tell she loves what she does :) We will definitely book again!”
“Needed a last minute doggie day care and they were so great! So glad they had room and our girl looks to have had a fabulous time with her new friends. Would book again if we can bring her with us on another adventure to the Waco area. Got a lot of great pics of her playing too. Reassuring - and adorable! A nice gesture for sure.”
“Lou always has a blast when he goes to Dustin’s and gets so excited upon arrival. I always know he loves someone by the way he gives hugs, and he definitely gives Dustin big hugs. Thank you for caring for my baby!”
“I highly recommend Jeannette! She was awesome with my pups, super prompt correspondence, sent pics, and just overall fantastic service! Thank you Jeannette for taking such great care of Sha and Louis!”
“Abbi is so intentional and caring with our dog! It has been a while since we tried a dog sitter because we needed someone who would understand our dog’s anxious tendencies and respond to her cues. I feel SO at peace leaving Ivy with Abbi!! :)”
About: I have been helping take care of dogs since I was 9, growing up my neighbors and relatives would rely on me for pet support. I have experience with bigger dogs and smaller dogs. I’ve also helped with pregnant pups as well. I’m currently home all the time except for a few hours a day on Wednesdays. So I will have plenty of time for your pup and play time for your pup. I have a kennel set up in my bed room for any dogs I sit. Walks and potty breaks will be taken every few hours depending on pups age. I do have a fenced in back yard.

About: I grew up on a farm so we had all sorts of animals, big and small. We were in 4H as well as had multiple pets throughout childhood. I love all animals and know how important it is for the owners to feel that their babies are safe and well cared for. I create my own schedule so I'm available for drop ins during the week as well as weekends. Daily feedings or over nights are easy to accommodate. I have a fenced yard and a young large mixed breed who loves to play. We have plenty of room inside and outside the house.
“Jessica was absolutely amazing. This was my first time using Rover for my Australian Shepherds who are a lot to handle. I traveled to Texas for my wedding and needed someone to tire them out for a couple days leading up to it. Jessica did just that for them, and I could tell they had a BLAST running around her property. I’m so grateful for Jessica and making this an amazing experience, being flexible, responsive, and providing fun photos throughout the day to put me at ease. If I lived in Texas I would use her every day! Don’t let your dog miss out on the fun!”
“Whitney took great care of Foster. Her household of people and pets were welcoming and Foster ran with the pack. He's tired and smiling! I would bring him here again and highly recommend her to anyone.”
About: Hi there! My name is Ashley! I have always loved animals since I was a child and have had several years of professional experience as well. I am currently working as the Foster Supervisor at Williamson County Regional animal shelter. I’d love to take care of your fur baby for you! I work from home as an esthetician, so your baby won’t be left alone for more than a hour or so. We have a Airbnb style tiny home for our stays on our property! Fenced yard, no other animals or kids. We like to keep things stress free. Please let me know if you’d like to stop by beforehand!
About: Hey there! My name is Gabby and live out in McGregor Tx. Just down the highway from Woodway. My daycare services are perfect for dogs that are not great in a large dog setting and need more personal one to one setting in which they can relax and enjoy their day away from their owners without all the pressure and stress of a multi dog play setting. I have a private backyard with access to long country walks and private walking trails. You can expect your dog to receive a lunch, walk, play time and tons of cuddles upon every stay. Boarders recieve Breakfast and Dinner (owner provided) as well as a snack. I offer regular dog walks and drop ins for the dogs unable to come over personally or who may not be the best in a group. Doggy walks will always be a minimum mile (unless specified otherwise by the owner) and Drop-ins will include poop cleanups, play time and light housework if desired. I can also offer some quick obedience lessons if desired which just includes the basic doggy mind push-ups, sit, down, stay, come repeated a few times. I use positive reinforcement with treats and verbal cues. Please let me know if your dog has any medical requirements, a special diet or any allergies. I'm able to administer any medications as needed. Also am able to do basic grooming (nails, bathing, genital area clean up, matts). As well as light housework (dishes, laundry, ect.) I'm currently a full time pet mama so my days are spent caring for my own little flock of animals. I currently have my own dog I've trained to be a successful hunting dog as well as fancy chickens that live in the coop in the back. I also have a wide variety of tanked pets including a Leopard Gecko, Texas Rat Snake, Hamster and Betta fish so exotic pet care is also something I can provide for any herp and aquarium owners out there thinking about how they could manage a vacation. I wake up around 5am everyday to walk my Terrier cross and let him stretch his legs first thing. We walk at least a mile before I come home and check on my Chickens, Leopard Gecko, Hamster and Snake. I feed and clean water dishes. Then go and clean the fish tank and use the water to water the garden.
“My dog, Danji got a great care from his family. He sent the video of walking with her and throwing a ball for her. I can trust them, and will let him to take care of her again. Thank you so much, especially during this Thanksgiving break.”

“Lacey is very detail oriented. She was accommodating not only to my dates and times requested but offered to do the meet and greet via FaceTime while she was on vacation. I’ve dog sat myself (even on Rover) and find it difficult to find good dog sitters. Excited to have Lacey as a staple in our routine when I travel for work!”
“Sara was great with Sadie. Showed up on-time and walked Sadie for the proper amount of time. I had a last minute request and she handled it professionally and kindly. Looking forward to more visits!”
“Ray goes above and beyond to care for Cinder in our absence. I love the photos and updates he sends and I can enjoy our travels knowing Cinder is being looked after by Ray. He's the best!”
“Angela took great care of my little girl. She asked great questions to make sure she knew how to care for Quinn best and during the weekend sent lots of pictures and updates. You could tell by the photos how much fun Quinn was having. Definitely would love to have Angela watch Quinn again!”
“Kirsten is nothing of fantastic. I moved to Waco on 6/27 and started work on 6/29. I didn’t have a dog walker and found Kirsten on Rover - she has been a blessing. She how walks my dog 5 times a week and sometimes 2 walks a day. I highly recommend her to anyone that needs assistance with their pets. She professional, kind, reliable and accomodsting”
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.
“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’ve been caring for animals since I was five years old, and neighbors trusted me with their pets as early as age 16. I continue to help friends and family by providing walks, playtime, and plenty of comfort and companionship for their pet. I have experience with pets of all ages, from puppies to seniors, and with dogs who have disabilities. Also small animals such as mice, hamsters, bunnies all the way up to Salcuta tortoise , I truly treat every pet like family and believe animals bring peace and joy to our lives. As I write this, I’m sitting for six dogs happily curled up at my feet and in my lap right where they belong. I currently work a shift schedule where I would be available after 2 pm or after 5 am. Hope to make this more of a full time job. Your welcome to contact me and I can let you know my schedule for the week. If needed I can ask off should I be needed for multiple days. In my home, I have a fenced yard that is perfect for both my dogs and my tortoise. I spoil my tortoise with delicious treats and ensure he stays warm in the winter. My dogs are like my kids; I take them for walks, give them treats, and shower them with love. When caring for a client's pet, I strictly follow their instructions. I provide treats if permitted, take them for walks as needed, and offer plenty of affection to ensure they feel loved. My goal is to create a safe and nurturing environment, helping them feel comfortable and at ease while their owners are away.
About: I’ve been around animals for most of my life and genuinely enjoy caring for pets of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I currently have a Ragamuffin cat named Jimmy and an energetic German Shepherd named Cleo, so I’m comfortable caring for everything from laid-back cats to large, high-energy dogs. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets and your home. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible, and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide regular photo and video updates so you know how they’re doing. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m available most days of the week. I can often accommodate different times and schedules, including recurring visits and last-minute requests when my availability allows. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free while you’re away. Every animal is different, so I’m happy to follow your normal routine, feeding schedule, walking preferences, and any special instructions you provide.

About: I've lived in a house full of dogs for years so I feel more than qualified to handle a house full of your furry friends or a house with one. I've pet sat for friends and family so I know how important it is your dogs don't feel alone. Nowadays, even with the heat I'm a big fan of taking walks with my dogs. We're both fans of the exercise and I have a small wading pool as a treat after the walk. I normally take them early in the morning or later in the evening when the sun is not at its hottest to protect their feet. I only work part time early mornings so I have a wide open afternoon schedule that is available. I'm willing to be flexible with your schedule. My normal weekly schedule has me available Mondays and Tuesdays after 1pm and Wednesday through Friday I am available after 11am. I'm all about positive reinforcement and love to play with dogs. I understand dogs can get rough and I'm not afraid of their nibbles but I do know how to distract and redirect their attention in the case of extreme rough play. I'm a big fan of treats so I do include treats during my time with dogs. As long as there is a fenced in back yard, I don't like to rely too heavily on a leash but like for the dog to feel free to roam.
About: I have experience taking care of animals in and outside the vet. I went to school to be a vet assisting and have learned a lot on handling animals of all sizes and ages. I have also ad experience with watching pets for friends and others. All the animals I own are adopted from shelters. I’m all about saving the fur babies that need homes. I love helping owners feel better about leaving for work and nervous about how their pets are while they’re gone. I will gladly send messages and pictures to assure your pets are well taken care of. I won’t charge an and a leg because how how hard it is to find someone you trust to care for your 4 legged friends.
“thank you so so much!! kim was perfect with my dog! so nice and came on such short notice and my dog was in a huge smile when he came back. 100% recommend and altai can’t wait for his next walk with her already!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was a child. I lived on a farm and took care of every kind of animal there was! My neighbors and friends have relied on me to care for their fur babies while they were out of town. This included walking, brushing, cuddling, feeding, cleaning up after them and making sure they were happy while their favorite people were away! I truly love animals in all shapes and sizes and would consider it a blessing to be able to watch yours! I took care of a very elderly dog in the last stages of his life and was so happy to be able to be there to comfort him as he passed on. The rate listed on my site is for a 24 hour stay. I would only leave for a few short breaks. I sell Avon so I make my own schedule. This leaves me plenty of time to take care of your precious animals. I am able to go to your home as many times a day that you think is needed. I have a very elderly cat so I am unable to care for pets in my home until she passes. Once she does, then I can watch animals in my home. I am able to care for pets in their own homes.
About: Want a pet sitter that cares for your pet as much as you do? That’s me! I love animals of all shapes and sizes! Playing, walking, frisbee-ing... all the best parts of my job! I have tons of references and experience! I used to train horses professionally and pet sit on the side! Dog walking shouldn’t be a problem considering my background. I would love to take care of any and all of your pet’s needs! Big or small, I am available and ready to help. Let me know if you have any further questions and I’d be happy to answer them or just to chat and get to know me! Currently, I am a law student on summer break, so my hours are very flexible! School picks back up in September so my availability becomes less flexible for dog walking or drop in visits. Housesitting is flexible, especially if you’re around the Baylor area or Woodway. I do not offer pet services in my own home, however, for pet, sitting or housesitting on your property, I ensure that all instructions are followed, and ask for thorough instructions before taking on the job. It is vitally important for me to understand how you like your property treated as well as your pets.
“Thank you so much!! Jadyn was so accommodating to us and worked with our schedule. She had great response times, was extremely nice and polite. Can’t wait to keep working with her!”
“We have been using Victoria to watch our dogs while we are away and when we need afternoon walks. She is great with the dogs, always on time, and thoughtful (bringing in mail and putting out trash)!”

“I am so happy to have met Jackie and Todd. They love dogs. We left our doggy several times and she is so happy there with them. They have a great space for play time, they take the time to send photos, they gave feedback about care, and you can feel the genuine interest in the wellbeing of all the doggies they take care of. They are our friends now!”
“Our dogs had a wonderful time at Andrea's! They had access to a dog door that made it even special for my dogs who love to chase squirrels! We enjoyed her so much that I ended up booking more days with her! Highly recommend! Thank you!”
“Jamelah was patient with us and our Belgium Sheppard. This was our first time using Rover with this pet. By the time we returned, she had our guard dog playing with her pet. We were thrilled. I appreciate her flexibility with each pet. She didnt require a crate, and allowed our dog to sleep on a rug by the bed. Exactly like she sleeps at home. We received pics and she responded right away to needy dog parents :). We will aways use Jamelah if she is available.”
“My dogs had plenty of socialization with other dogs and people. They had room to run and chase outside. Dustin is very communicative and sent lots of photos and videos. Dogs had fun during their stay with Dustin.”
“The crazy freeze threw some scheduling issues at us and Lacey could not have been more kind and accommodating. And our pup was warm and safe by her fireplace! So grateful.”
“Jalen had a wonderful long weekend with Jessica! I was so appreciative of all of the updates (and photos/videos) throughout the weekend. It put my mind at ease knowing that Jalen had plenty of time outside, playing fetch and just enjoying the wonderful yard! He’s an anxious doggo and Jessica was so sweet to make sure all of his needs were met. Would definitely recommend!”
“Erin and her family were amazing and took great care of my dog. She updated me daily with pictures, videos and what was happening throughout the day. Erin and her family really cared about my dog, making sure she felt loved and comfortable in a new environment. I will absolutely be using them again in the future and highly recommend them!”
“Celeste was very friendly and responsive when wanting an update on how Coco was doing. She was very thorough with questions about Coco's eating schedule, walking habits, and the little details on how she acts. She took her on walks plenty of walks. Also, can't thank her enough, she allowed me to extend Coco stay for an extra day due to my brother wanting to stay out of town longer.”
“Definitely recommend Whitney! She took good care of my dog, Romo, and even went beyond by spoiling him. Making him feel like he's at home. Romo definitely enjoyed his stay there.”
“Jessica offers excellent home away from home boarding services. Comfort & care were provided for both of the boys. If they had their way, they would have stayed. Thank you Jessica!”
About: I have always had a special place in my heart for animals. It is our responsibility as humans to take the best care of them. Every dog is special and deserves to be attended to appropriately. I am a Waco local and student at MCC studying to become a teacher. I’m currently working part time most weekdays until 6 pm. I can take appointments starting at 6:30 which is perfect during this Texas heat. I wouldn’t mind doing later walks when the weather is cooler. I will always make sure your pet is healthy and happy! My goal is to take extraordinary care of your pet and make sure it has everything it needs
“Dena is such a great dog sitter! Her genuine care for the well-being of our anxious dog was clear. When we picked up our dog, she was happy, smiling and looking at Dena as if she has known her forever. Thank you again!”
About: I don’t just pet‑sit — I love on your animals like they’re part of my own little pack. From belly rubs to long walks and cozy snuggles, your fur babies get all the care, attention, and heart they deserve. Kittens/Puppies/Elder/Special Needs Animals Morning: I start the day with your cat — breakfast, fresh water, gentle snuggles, and a little playtime to ease into the day. I check in on their mood, energy level, and any special needs so the rest of the day stays centered around them. Midday: I’m home for the most of the day, keeping your cat company, offering enrichment, supervising any outdoor time they enjoy, and maintaining their routine. If your cat is comfortable and settled, I may step out for essential errands, always making sure their needs are fully met before I leave and right when I return. Afternoon: More focused attention — play sessions, quiet companionship, grooming if they enjoy it, or simply being nearby so they feel safe and supported. Their comfort guides the pace of the day. Evening: Dinner, cozy wind‑down time, and extra affection. I stay home to ensure they feel secure, relaxed, and cared for as they settle in for the night. A day in my care is all about your cat — snuggles when they want closeness, playful moments to spark joy, supervised outdoor time for safe exploring, gentle walks or calming car rides if they enjoy them, and a routine built entirely around their needs. Whether they’re nursing, growing, aging, or require special attention, I make sure every moment feels comforting, enriching, and full of love.
About: I’ve lived on a farm for 2 to 3 years so I was around a lot of animals. I’ve had dogs and cats throughout my childhood and as I got older, I’ve had my own pets. I’ve dog and cat sitter for a few friends, and I have a big passion and heart for animals and I think they all deserve the attention they need!<3 I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most days of the week. My regular unavailability is Wednesday evenings and Sundays. Any additional scheduling conflicts will be communicated in advance. I plan to begin college classes in late August, and once my class schedule is finalized, I will update my availability accordingly. I am dedicated to providing pets with the care, attention, and companionship they need while their owners are away. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind by ensuring their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.
About: Hey there! My name is Gabby and live out in McGregor Tx. Just down the highway from Woodway. My daycare services are perfect for dogs that are not great in a large dog setting and need more personal one to one setting in which they can relax and enjoy their day away from their owners without all the pressure and stress of a multi dog play setting. I have a private backyard with access to long country walks and private walking trails. You can expect your dog to receive a lunch, walk, play time and tons of cuddles upon every stay. Boarders recieve Breakfast and Dinner (owner provided) as well as a snack. I offer regular dog walks and drop ins for the dogs unable to come over personally or who may not be the best in a group. Doggy walks will always be a minimum mile (unless specified otherwise by the owner) and Drop-ins will include poop cleanups, play time and light housework if desired. I can also offer some quick obedience lessons if desired which just includes the basic doggy mind push-ups, sit, down, stay, come repeated a few times. I use positive reinforcement with treats and verbal cues. Please let me know if your dog has any medical requirements, a special diet or any allergies. I'm able to administer any medications as needed. Also am able to do basic grooming (nails, bathing, genital area clean up, matts). As well as light housework (dishes, laundry, ect.) I'm currently a full time pet mama so my days are spent caring for my own little flock of animals. I currently have my own dog I've trained to be a successful hunting dog as well as fancy chickens that live in the coop in the back. I also have a wide variety of tanked pets including a Leopard Gecko, Texas Rat Snake, Hamster and Betta fish so exotic pet care is also something I can provide for any herp and aquarium owners out there thinking about how they could manage a vacation. I wake up around 5am everyday to walk my Terrier cross and let him stretch his legs first thing. We walk at least a mile before I come home and check on my Chickens, Leopard Gecko, Hamster and Snake. I feed and clean water dishes. Then go and clean the fish tank and use the water to water the garden.
“Samuel was amazing with his communication and response time. Balti had a wonderful time. He was truly cared for like he was one of their own and I appreciate that type of love and care immensely. I highly recommend any stay with Samuel and his welcoming home.”
About: CPR Certified. I have worked with dogs for 15+ years. I am currently a professional canine behaviorist and trainer. I have been training for 4 years after attending Starmark Academy. I have worked in boarding/daycare facilities for 15 years. Luxury and plenty of attention is my specialty! I tried my hand at grooming but it wasn't my favorite. I do have different brushes for different coats so I am able to brush your pup. Hygiene is important! I have worked with hundreds of breeds of dogs along with special needs, seniors, and playful puppies as well. My days are nothing but dogs! I am home all the time. I wake up, let my dogs out, feed them, let them out again and then make sure they rest till their food digests. Then we have a 30-45 minute training session including play. They come inside and rest some more. I make pupsicles and let my dogs lick the spoon. We play some more. If there are no other dogs boarding with me, I love to take my dogs to the park, lake, or pet friendly store. It makes for excellent training, mental, and physical stimulation. We come home rest, eat, and the last few hours of the night they get their pupsicles and we go to bed. I have a fenced in backyard. If your dog can jump a 6 ft fence, I also have a 30ft and a 50ft long line to keep them on during outside time. This way they can still run around. I have 2 dogs myself and if your pup gets along with them they can play with 100% supervision from me, a certified professional trainer and behaviorist. If your dog isn't dog friendly, no problem! I do rotations with the dogs and if needed, will be walked through my house with a leash. Even if they are friendly, your dog still gets one on one time with me and time to take a break from my dogs. Your dog will always have a safe space, this is why I do require them to be kenneled in my house when I am gone or it's bedtime. It's their "bedroom," their space to decompress, and safety always comes first. For my senior dogs or dogs going through medical treatment, I do have a larger pen they can stay in if I have to leave the house to get groceries or do a private training session. I feed all dogs separately in their safe space and none of the dogs are allowed in each other's space. If you have two dogs, I do require them to be kenneled separately. They can be side by side but they must have their own kennel/crate.
About: I am a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet sitter who is new to Rover but not new to caring for dogs. I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. I also have experience administering medications and am comfortable following detailed feeding, medication, and care routines. My husband and I live on a farm with our 4-year-old female Standard Poodle, Maggie. She is friendly, well trained, and enjoys having other dogs around. Although our yard is not fenced, all dogs are closely supervised outdoors and taken on multiple leashed walks each day. Our property offers plenty of space for safe walks, exploring, and sniffing. I recently completed my PhD at Baylor University and bring responsibility, attention to detail, and reliability to everything I do. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I will treat your dog like part of our family while keeping you updated throughout their stay. I have cared for pets for friends, family, and others since high school, with more regular pet-sitting experience in recent years. Please note that dogs staying in our home must be comfortable using stairs. I work from home most days, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I am available throughout the day for regular potty breaks, companionship, feeding, medication, and plenty of attention. I already follow a consistent routine with my Standard Poodle, Maggie, including multiple leashed walks each day. Because we live on a farm, visiting dogs also have plenty of opportunities to walk, explore, and sniff while remaining safely supervised. I live in a cozy studio apartment above the garage on our farm, so the indoor space is modest, but dogs have plenty of opportunities for supervised outdoor time, walks, and exploring around the property. I follow each pet’s usual feeding, walking, medication, and sleep routine as closely as possible. I also provide regular photos and updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
