So thoughtful! Can’t recommend her enough!”

“Alex was great, communicated with us throughout Chessy’s stay and clarified instructions on how to set our anxious girl up for success. Loved getting photos of her each morning and with other Rover friends!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats since birth and have lived with a dog all but 5 years of my life. Although I personally don’t have a furry friend, all of my friends do and often rely on me to provide their dog a fun vacation and safe stay while they are away. Anything from taking care of sick or older dogs to training puppies, I’ve been fortunate to watch a lot of dogs in my life and have earned their trust through care and treating them like family. Since I don’t have pets of my own, more of my day can be dedicated to yours. Whether dog or cat, my apartment offers space for both to roam and be outside. I also regularly walk on the Lady Bird trail located just steps from my home which allows me to be very active and your pet to do the same. I work in West Lake 3 days a week but am able to come home freely for lunch. The other 5 days of the week I am either working or hanging around my home, plenty of time to be dedicated to caring for your pets. I prefer not to crate animals while I am away if they don’t need to be. I want your pet to feel comfortable and safe in my home while also feeling like on vacation, with the trail and dog park nearby. I am a huge animal lover so of course they are invited on the furniture and in my bed, however will respect your rules if they differ. Your pet will be treated as if it were mine because all of my love and time will be solely dedicated to it when I am home. You can feel safe knowing your dog or cat won’t have to be forced to get along with another while at home, but also having the ability to play with other dogs/cats on the trail and in the dog park.
“Renada is amazing. She is caring, knowledgeable and very responsive. I get many pictures for Beasley everyday as if I’m reading his diary. Beas absolutely looking to stay with Renada again!”

About: Those that I have encountered with pets , constantly tell me how good I am with them. It’s almost a natural instinct. I’ve done extensive research on properly training dogs and cats, i’ve seen results on my own dog. I currently have a part-time job so this is something i’ve decided to do on my free time out of pure enjoyment, as well as getting some exercise in ! My number one priory will always be safety. I have a dog and cat of my own so i know how important it is to be safe as well as keep yourself in a calm and positive environment, as animals can read into you easily.
“Mya was great with my cat Jorge! She was considerate and kind and provided lots of updates to show that Jorge was doing well in her care ☺️ I also appreciated how Mya responded super quickly to the initial request and made time for my booking. I would def book again 😊🐈”
About: Beyond caring for my own two cats since kittenhood, I’ve provided weekend stays and drop-in visits for family and friends’ cats. I understand how important it is to maintain routines, keep things clean and consistent, and provide both companionship and space depending on the cat’s personality.
“Mara was awesome with our cats!! She was great at reaching out, and just generally checking in about the boys. She also was super attentive when we were teaching her how to administer mediation to one of our cats We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Julian was amazing with our two cats! He showed up everyday on time and left detailed descriptions of what he and the cats got up to! We looked forward to the fun pictures and videos he would send at the end of each visit. We know our cats were in great hands while we were away and we will be booking with him again in the future!”
About: Hello there! My name is Robin and I am so excited to be able to meet you and your pets! I have such a deep love and passion for animals and am eager to be able to connect with them. Your pet is your family, and i understand what it’s like to have to be away from them whether it’s for work or a trip, which is why i plan to give the upmost attention and love to your family. I am a responsible, responsive and outgoing dog lover. I love meeting new people, new animals and being outdoors. Hopefully i get the opportunity to connect with some of you and adventure with your fur babies! I am new to the Austin area and am open to bookings immediately! My schedule is flexible so i am open to last minute sittings or walks! Please reach out with any assistance you may need and I’ll be sure to respond quickly. For my pets, i love taking her to the dog park and just long walks in our community. We live in an apartment so it’s important she still gets to run freely.
“We left our kitties in Ashlynn’s care with much less notice or instruction that I would have normally wanted — and a historic rain storm even blew in! But she wonderful job making sure the kitties were cared for and cuddled for more than a week. She even cleaned cat barf off a comforter. We really appreciate her exceptional dependability & kindness!”
About: I’m a cat owner with experience caring for multiple cats with different personalities, routines, and comfort levels. I understand that cats need patience, consistency, and individualized attention to feel safe and comfortable. Whether your cat is playful and social or shy and independent, I make sure they receive attentive care, clean spaces, enrichment, and plenty of affection on their own terms. As someone who currently has 4 cats, I’m very familiar with multi-cat households and the importance of creating a calm, stress-free environment.

“Jen was great with my pup. Xena is a sweet and nervous around other dog; Jen was more than accommodating and took her time introducing her to the other dogs. On her second day she was fully part of the pack and I had a great time at puppy land. I would definitely recommend her services 10/10”

“Elizabeth and Adrian were absolutely amazing with Nala! From the moment we dropped her off, we knew she was in great hands. They were caring, attentive, and made sure she felt comfortable and loved throughout her daycare stay. Nala had an absolute blast, especially making a new furry best friend, Niki! It was so heartwarming to see how much fun she had playing, socializing, and coming home happy and tired after a full day of adventures. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of our girl. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we’ll definitely be booking with you again. Highly recommend Elizabeth and Adrian to anyone looking for kind, trustworthy, and loving pet caregivers!”
“Chris and Callan were absolutely wonderful. They helped me at the last minute with daycare and were friendly, flexible, and responsible. My dog, Sevi, seemed to feel immediately at home in their house, even venturing up the stairs on her own to explore minutes after I dropped her. She came back at the end of the day happily tired and calm.”
“Alice took great care of our two pups during their day care stay with her. She was communicative and sent regular updates and photos during their day care stay with her. She followed instructions in their care sheet and was flexible with pick up and drop off times. I would definitely recommend her!”
“I was very happy and satisfied with the service I received from Alonso and his wife Eva. They treated my dog Charlie with compassion and affection and truly cared for him like he was part of their family. It gave me great peace of mind knowing Charlie was in such kind and attentive hands. I would definitely recommend their services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. Thank you both so much! If I ever need doggie daycare again, I will definitely use your services.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have cared for over five dogs of different sizes, breeds, and ages with my family. From playful puppies to sweet senior dogs, I understand how to adapt to each dog’s unique needs and personality. I love spending time playing, walking, and giving dogs the attention they deserve. Whether it’s belly rubs, outdoor play, or quiet company, I’ll make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and happy! Besides dogs, I love all animals! I have had bunnies and birds before and know how to take care of them! I work remotely full-time, which which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout their stay. My daily routine is flexible, so I’m able to accommodate feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, cuddle time, medication routines, and regular check-ins. I like to keep each pet’s routine as close as possible to what they are used to at home. Whether they need active play, quiet company, extra patience, or a calm space to relax, I do my best to adjust my day around their comfort and needs! I live in a spacious apartment that offers plenty of room for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and well supervised! I got my two friendly American Shorthair cats at home, so I’m very mindful about introductions, boundaries, and each pet’s comfort level. I always take time to understand how each pet does around other animals! If a pet needs their own space, quiet time, or a slower introduction, I make sure they have a calm area where they can relax. I keep the environment clean, organized, and peaceful so every pet feels cared for during their stay!
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ She was amazing with Waffles! I received tons of pictures and updates, which made me feel so comfortable while I was away. Waffles came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. You can tell she genuinely loves dogs. I will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!”
About: I have experience watching dogs of all ages and sizes in NY and now Texas. I understand needs of dogs whether that be sensitive to noises, separation anxiety, etc - I’ve seen it all. Especially with my own six pound Chihuahua! Experience in administering medicine and training, I can help you and accommodate for anything you may need. I have tons of love to give and will provide an easy and calming experience for you and your family. I work from home and am able to give your pet 24/7 attention. Walks can be given every hour and the dog park at least once a day, if your dog likes dog parks. I am available every day and very flexible with scheduling. I live alone in a quiet house with a fenced backyard so there’s plenty of space for your furry friend to get comfortable. I also have a very friendly chihuahua that will be with me for any dog boarding. Your dog may sleep on the furniture or in a crate, whatever you prefer. I can administer medicine (no shots) and live within walking distance of a vet that I know personally, so this is the perfect place in case of any emergencies.

“Marissa was very attentive to our puppy. She went out if her way to talke extra care of her, gave her medicine and always walked her and sent us picttires. She was very responsible and easy to work with”
About: It is safe to say that I grew up with pets as a replacement for siblings. My mother has a love for animals that is over the moon - which made my household and childhood pretty close to living in a zoo! I spent years growing up taking care of all my pets, on top of caring for the number of foster animals that circulated in and out of our house. Over the years my mom and I accumulated a number of bonds with both cats and dogs that may not have had a chance at finding a new home if my mom hadn't come around. Overall, my love for animals is enough to make this kind of work both easy and extremely enjoyable for me! I live in an apartment with a fenced in yard, dog park, access to tons of trails, and stay very active with my own dog, London on a regular basis. We would love to help play with and care for your fur babies! I am currently a full time remote worker so my schedule is incredibly flexible. I am more than happy to travel to your home and work the hours that are most convenient for you! I have a lot of training in keeping an eye on animals / doors etcetera to ensure they are safe. Back home, my mother has 7 indoor/outdoor cats, on top of our pups, that we have to keep an eye on at all times! :)
“Lindsey was great. She was able to accommodate my schedule and sent photo and videos throughout the day. Cooper came back tired after all the fun he had!”
“Yujie is an incredibly responsible dog sitter. He made sure to take time to meet Monty beforehand, which helped us confirm they were a great fit and left us with a good feeling. During the visit, he took wonderful care of Monty and sent us pictures throughout the day! Monty clearly loved being with him and is eager to visit again soon.”

“Madeline was absolutely incredible with Frances! This was my first time using Rover and I am so happy that it was with someone as wonderful as Madeline. She was professional, kind, and provided me (a certified helicopter mom) with incredibly thorough updates. I would recommend her to all and will definitely be asking for her help again!”
About: Hello! My name is Hannah. I have a 2 year old professionally trained black lab/German shepherd mix named Ziggy that weighs about 50 lbs. He has been raised around children in our neighborhood and is very well socialized. I've had dogs growing up my entire life and prior to my current dog, I rescued a black lab/pit bull mix that lived 15 wonderful years. I feel passionately that my dog is my family and I understand wanting to leave your baby in the care of someone who will take care of them like you do. I'm the go-to person for my friends when they need someone to watch their animals. I've had experience with boxers, rottweilers, yorkies, chihuahuas, (puppy and senior) and everything in between. After many years, I decided to go back to school to get my Master's in Humanitarian Law. I'm currently on a break from studying because I need to make the money I need to finish my degree. My husband has recently retired and we have been enjoying spending our days with Ziggy in the interim. Taking care of animals allows me to work a flexible schedule and enjoy my time with my family before I go back to school. We frequently take Ziggy swimming, for hikes, and to play with his favorite toy (Chuck-It). Looking forward to hearing from you! I'm currently unemployed and have a very flexible schedule. Our days currently revolve around my husband and I's dog Ziggy. We typically work in our garden, are working on decluttering our house, and are enjoying trying new recipes. We take Ziggy to exercise for at least an hour every day (whether that's walking, swimming, or playing fetch). Our dog is part of our family - he is allowed on the furniture and has a large collection of well-loved toys. We typically work on maintenance training during exercise and meal times. Ziggy knows how to place, shake, sit, and lay down on command (most of the time). We use a gentle lead when walking Ziggy to avoid pulling. Ziggy can be a bit spoiled with his food and sometimes needs a treat in the mix to entice him to eat. In our neighborhood, my husband has known all our neighbors for over 20 years. We bought our home in 2019 to be close to those neighbors and to have a community. While we have a fence that closes off our front yard/street, we took down the fence separating us from our neighbors to encourage that sense of community. On a typical day, we will let Ziggy out in the backyard and look up to see him playing with the neighborhood children (around age 5) out in the backyard. My brother and best friend rent rooms in our house and also love Ziggy dearly. There is a 5 year old cat that is an indoor/outdoor cat. He mostly keeps to himself but is very comfortable around dogs. If watching a dog at your house, I'm comfortable with a long list of requests for care. I'm comfortable administering medication, following a special diet, and/or doing anything that's needed to follow your pet's routine and make them most comfortable. I'm happy to meet ahead of any pet sitting requests if you would like to meet me and introduce me to your pet ahead of your departure. I'm happy to send updates/pictures as often as needed. Although I have the list pretty much memorized, I do keep a list of all foods and essential oils that are toxic to dogs. I've been around a variety of dog personalities and don't mind being patient with dogs that may be more anxious or prone to separation anxiety.

“Lucia was EXHAUSTED after her walk! It was perfect. She is so sweet and even had an earlier time available to come which was amazing. 10/10 most definitely recommend her Lucia approved as well”
“Wow! What a great experience with Lakeisha! She was on time, Sat and talked to me about her history…very friendly, asked question about my dog, the whole 9 yards! My 90- pound dog really took to Keisha. She took him on a 30-minute walk and sent video while they walked. He was a well- behaved, happy to be on a walk dog!! I think she and my dog made an instant connect. He was happy when he got back and so was I. Lakeisha will be here 3 days a week and my pup and I look forward to it! I highly recommend Lakeisha!!”
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.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have experience caring for them at every stage, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. My own beloved dog recently passed away at 16 years old, so I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for a pet. While I’m not quite ready to have a dog of my own again, I truly miss having pets around and would love the opportunity to care for yours when you can’t be there. I’m reliable and committed to making sure every pet feels well cared for in my home. I love spending time with animals and can easily incorporate them into my daily routine. Them being well cared for is my prioritization. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, so I can provide attentive care, plenty of potty breaks, walks, and playtime throughout the day. I am also quite active, so if the pet needs long walks, they are perfect for my daily walks! Any type of pet fits in my life, from an energetic puppy who needs extra activity to a senior dog or cat who prefers a slower pace. My priority is always making pets feel comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine and any special care instructions so I can minimize stress.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life thanks to close friends and family with pets. Growing up, they jokingly called me "the dog whisperer" because I was loved by every dog I met. Whenever I’d visit someone’s house, I would immediately seek out the dogs and spend most of my time playing with them! I started pet sitting with my family 6 years ago, and independently 2.5 years ago. I consider myself a beginner-to-intermediate sitter; while I don't have the consistent lengthy experience of some full-time sitters, I am fully confident in my abilities to handle all of the essential care basics like walking, feeding, and waste clean-up. Currently, I care for a wonderful family's dog and cat whenever they go on vacation (usually for about a week at a time). During these drop-ins, I handle walks and feedings along with plenty of playtime and some litterbox maintenance. I also make it a priority to send frequent photo updates with a quick recap of our day, because I know just how much you miss your babies when you're away! I'm a new grad on summer break so I have a pretty open schedule! I work a part-time job, but if you're booking 2 weeks in advance or more it shouldn't be a problem. If less than 2 weeks still reach out because there's a good chance I'm still available! Safety is very important to me, so I make sure to double check any locks and doors. I know every situation is different, so we would go over any security concerns, house rules, and procedures beforehand.
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: I had an older dog for four years that I love to take care of. I am flexible with the activity levels of your pets. I work remotely. My job is flexible, so I work from my home or somewhere else. I also am flexible on weekends for pet care. My complex is in a safe area and has an accessible walking trail. I have reliable transportation to get me to and from client’s home.
About: Being honest, it has always been incredibly easy for me to connect with pets, especially dogs. I now have a 2 year old shihtzu who I absolutely adore and spoil every day. Sometimes I feel like he needs a little brother or a friend to play with, and even when I’m out with him, you’ll still catch me trying to pet every dog we pass. I simply love them deeply. Before having him, I had a Chihuahua for 13 years, and she taught me so much about unconditional love. I’ve also cared for family and friends’ dogs whenever they needed help. One moment that really showed me how naturally I bond with dogs was during a family beach trip, we found a big Boxer in the backyard who barked nonstop and scared everyone away. I was the only one who tried to approach him calmly and understand him. After spending time talking to him through the fence, he eventually trusted me enough to let me pet him. Soon after, I was able to go into the yard with him, and he turned out to be the sweetest dog. My family was shocked at how naturally and confidently I connected with him. That experience, among many others, made me realize how much I truly understand dogs, their fears, their excitement, their need for love, and how much joy it brings me to care for them. I am a person that love to exercise, love to go out in walks, hiking and also I love to wake up early. I think that a weekly pet routine would be like a peace time for me. I live in an apartment with my husband and our sweet shihtzu. I’m very flexible and always follow any rules or routines you have: feeding times, portions, walks, medication, anything your pet needs. I’m also happy to do a quick free meet-and-greet beforehand so you can feel completely comfortable and confident with me taking care of your treasure!
“Nancy is simply amazing — truly a beautiful soul. While we were away for three weeks, she took exceptional care of our German Shepherd and gave us complete peace of mind. She consistently went above and beyond, and even took the time to help my mother with our elderly dog as well. We feel incredibly fortunate and blessed to have found Nancy. I sincerely appreciate everything she has done for our family and cannot thank her enough. Highly recommended.”
About: As a dog mom to both a senior dog and a young pup, I understand that every dog has different needs and personalities. I have experience caring for senior dogs, including giving oral medications and providing extra patience and comfort, as well as keeping younger, energetic pups active and engaged. I'll care for your pets like they're my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I work from home 4 out of 5 weekdays and have weekends free. My schedule is pretty low-key, which gives me the flexibility to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, or cuddles or whatever your pup needs to feel comfortable and cared for. I do my best to keep your pet on their normal routine so they feel comfortable while you're away. Whether I'm caring for them in my home or yours, I'll follow their feeding schedule, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions. I'll also make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and updates, so you can have peace of mind knowing they're in good hands.
About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats for over seven years and currently share my home with two dogs and two cats, so I understand all the different personalities, quirks, and needs that come with each furry friend. I’ve cared for pets of all ages and energy levels and have five years of experience as a dog owner myself. I’m comfortable giving medications to both cats and dogs, keeping routines consistent, and adjusting my care style based on your pet’s unique character, whether they’re shy, playful, energetic, or a senior who prefers gentle company. Above all, I’m loving, patient, and attentive, and I treat every animal as if they’re my own. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I do my best to schedule them around my work meetings. I’m happy to follow your pet’s feeding, walk, and medication routines exactly as you prefer. I can’t host pets in my home due to roommates, so all of my care takes place in your pet’s own environment where they feel safest and most relaxed. I’m very mindful of routines and instructions, and I make sure doors, gates, and feeding schedules are always handled carefully. Since I work from home, I can coordinate visits around my work meetings and spend quality time with your pet, making sure they feel secure, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Adriana was fantastic. She communicated very well and was consistently keeping me posted on my pup. She also was very flexible with pickup and drop off and is in a super convenient location to the airport. Will definitely be re-booking!”
“Amy was fantastic with our 6 year old yellow lab. Angus (dog) was so happy (and CLEAN!) when we picked him up. She sent lots of pics and updates and we loved knowing he was well taken care of while we traveled. Would definitely recommend Amy and use her again in the future.”
“Kara took such great care of my kittens and was great with communication. It was so nice knowing I didn’t have to worry while my girls were boarded and away from home because I knew they were in great hands with Kara ❤️🥰. Highly recommend and I hope to book her again next time!”
“Highly recommend Mariana to watch your pups! She gave great updates and send pictures and videos multiple times a day. Our two pups came back happy and even bathed! Thanks for taking great care of them!”
“Ivette is amazing! I had an odd situation where I was on vacation for a wedding and needed new boarding mid vacation and Ivette was so flexible, positive and informative. Communication was honestly above and beyond and I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with her. She even used one of her own slow feeders for my dog when she noticed him eating too quickly! So thoughtful! Can’t recommend her enough!”
“I had Jehisson to sit our dog, Zira while we were out of town. She loved her stay at Jehisson’s. Jehisson kept me updated by sending pictures of Zira. I felt Zira is in safe hands. I would be happy to reconnect with Jehisson in future.”

“We had a meet and greet before leaving Sappho with Danielle and from the start this helped put us at ease knowing Sappho would be in good hands. Danielle kept us updated with some photos or videos. We would happily leave Sappho in Danielle’s care again.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats since birth and have lived with a dog all but 5 years of my life. Although I personally don’t have a furry friend, all of my friends do and often rely on me to provide their dog a fun vacation and safe stay while they are away. Anything from taking care of sick or older dogs to training puppies, I’ve been fortunate to watch a lot of dogs in my life and have earned their trust through care and treating them like family. Since I don’t have pets of my own, more of my day can be dedicated to yours. Whether dog or cat, my apartment offers space for both to roam and be outside. I also regularly walk on the Lady Bird trail located just steps from my home which allows me to be very active and your pet to do the same. I work in West Lake 3 days a week but am able to come home freely for lunch. The other 5 days of the week I am either working or hanging around my home, plenty of time to be dedicated to caring for your pets. I prefer not to crate animals while I am away if they don’t need to be. I want your pet to feel comfortable and safe in my home while also feeling like on vacation, with the trail and dog park nearby. I am a huge animal lover so of course they are invited on the furniture and in my bed, however will respect your rules if they differ. Your pet will be treated as if it were mine because all of my love and time will be solely dedicated to it when I am home. You can feel safe knowing your dog or cat won’t have to be forced to get along with another while at home, but also having the ability to play with other dogs/cats on the trail and in the dog park.
“Renada is amazing. She is caring, knowledgeable and very responsive. I get many pictures for Beasley everyday as if I’m reading his diary. Beas absolutely looking to stay with Renada again!”
“Addie and Frank were wonderful. Their huge fenced backyard was a great escape for our dogs, they followed all of our instruction, and most importantly kept the dogs safe. We would highly recommend them and use them again! Thanks again. MIZ”
“Cassidy was super great! Took off for Aspen for a night and left my big 'ol dog with her and they had a lot of fun! Definitely planning to go with her again if I need/want to be out of town without the four-leg amigo again soon.”
“Our dog was so happy with Cassandra and Jason! They sent us plenty of update pictures and make sure he had so much fun while we were out of town. We’ll definitely use them again!”
