“Leslie was wonderful with my old girl! Super friendly, communicative, and clearly knows and loves dogs. She kept me updated with lots of wonderful photos and let me know how my pup was doing. This was my first time using a pet sitter on Rover and she made the entire experience great for both myself and Winnie! Would absolutely recommend!”

About: Genuine love for pets. I naturally care for their well-being and love the affection I get from all animals. My family and I have 5 dogs of our own and recently we were adopted by our newly stray cat, Carey. We have been fostering dogs since Thanksgiving of 2017 and we have learned a lot how all pets deserve second chances and how each one of them heals at their own time. My dog walks are tailored to your pet needs, I will focus on the safety of your pet and myself during my service. You can trust that your pet will always be in loving and caring hands. Dog walking would be my primary activity next to my English classes. I will work with you to make sure that your pets needs are met in a timely manner. At home we have a fenced backyard and at my customers' homes I make sure that safety is a priority during my service. That means that I would make sure that your pet is properly secured and that is happy while we are together.
“My little guy excitedly jumped out the car to greet Randy when he saw him again. It’s extremely comforting to know that he’s being well cared for. Thank you!!”
“Elena has confirmed a wonderful sitter. I left my Frida again to her for >1 week, and I couldn’t be more happy for how she took care of her. She pays attention to details and she is always able to understand dogs behavior and put them in their own comfort zone. Every day she sent me uodates and picture of Frida. Frida was happy to see her again, and this shows how good she has been at Elena’s house. I would definitely recommend Elena, as I will reach out to her again when I will need.”
“Shu was amazing with our cat, she took such good care and he really enjoyed the time spent with her. She went way above and beyond, keeping us informed and even checking if he had fleas and applying the treatment. Thank you so much and for sure will come back next time we need a cat sitter!”

“Steven is nice and calm gentlemen, he took great and loving care of my babies. I found them sound and safe, tired of playing with other dogs what to ask more? I would recommend Steven to everyone who wants to have peaceful holiday with no worries what is happening back home.”
“I am very happy to have had Kim's help. An issue came up during the stay and I had to extend the time, and Kim helped me out. Toby was well cared for and she took him for a walk to burn off some energy. If I need help again, I wouldn't hesitate for a second to contact her.”

They’re very kind and professional and you can tell they truly love dogs and aren’t doing this just for money! God Bless them! I’m definitely coming back to them as soon as I need it. 100% recommended !”

“Our experience with Natalie was truly spectacular. This was our first time hiring a pet sitter, and naturally, leaving your pets in someone else’s care can be a little concerning. However, Natalie put us at ease right away—she was incredibly communicative throughout the entire time and showed up promptly for every scheduled visit. We felt completely comfortable knowing our pets were in her hands. We could not recommend her more highly!”
“She is the absolute best. She is my regular sitter for my two kitties and they love her. She always sends photos and updates whenever I ask. She’s very responsive and thorough. Couldn’t ask for a better and more reliable sitter! Book with Heaven.”
“Ms. Heather was such a delight! She came through in a crunch time of mine. She’s super sweet and very responsive. She took GREAT care of my fur baby. My little Amirah loves her! She was so supportive and detail oriented when it came to my dog. I definitely recommend her and I will be using her in the future!”
“Cameron provides detailed updates and pictures after each visit. My cat looked like she was having a great time playing with her. I will definitely rebook in the future!”
“Bailee was wonderful! She dropped in every other day to check on my cat Remi. She sent pictures and notes every day. Bailee even watered my outside plants for me. Bailee is dependable and punctual and Remi was comfortable with her. Highly recommended!”
“Jacquelyn was timely and professional throughout. At the beginning there were some issues getting into my unit and she was very patient and did all that was needed to work through the issue. She would send thoughtful updates about my cats daily, which I appreciated. I would recommend Jackie any time and will absolutely work with her again!”
“Nupur was great! I needed a last minute drop in for my kitty and she completed the tasks I had on my fridge! She also sent me photos during her check in which was appreciated.”
“Trinity did a GREAT job watching my cats when I was out of town. She communicated well and followed instructions for both my cats. They loved her! Definitely recommend and would book again in the future :)”
“Yuriko was wonderful (as usual) and was even able to graciously accommodate us last minute! She treats our Garbo with respect and care and she takes the best pictures of her.”
“Allison is amazing with my cats! she picks up on their quirks quickly and is incredibly attentive to their health. I always feel confident and safe leaving them in her care”
“Joe was awesome! I was overseas for 20 days and he watched my sweet cat Roz every 3 days. He sent a lot of photos and updates. Roz clearly loved him and he clearly loved Roz. Joe's passion for animals transpires and he was super sweet with Roz. Highly recommend!”
“Tim was fantastic with our cats. The freezing weather threw a wrench in things, and Tim agreed to come earlier than we had him scheduled. This really helped out the sitter he was relieving since she doesn’t drive and needed to arrange transportation. Tim ensured the outside cats were warm enough and got them fresh water when it froze. He sent us photos of the cats to us and let us know all was well which we appreciated.”
“Mikayla took EXCELLENT care of our cat while we were out of town. 100% recommend. We were anxious to leave him, but she sent us multiple photos everyday and gave him lots of love. We will definitely use her in the future.”
“Darren was the best cat sitters I’ve ever had. He was responsive, accommodating, and provided daily updates. He even checked on items that I didn’t instruct him to check such as the litter box and food level of my automatic feeder. Definitely goes above and beyond. I will be booking again with him in the future.”

“I was a bit anxious about leaving Harper while I had some tests run at MDA. I received photos and encouragement that he was doing just fine! (I should have known he wouldn’t miss me as much as I missed him.) What a great resource for any MDA patients from out of town! Harper will definitely be staying with Tommie and Jeffrey in the future.”
“Steven is the best doggie daycare on the Rover. He is caring, responsive, attentive and understanding. He took special care of my Yorkie and sent me pictures Parson during the day. I can’t wait to use him again and I’ve already referred him to my friends.”
About: I tailor each walk to your dog’s needs and energy level. Whether your pup enjoys a relaxed stroll or an active run, I’m happy to match their pace and help them get the exercise they need. You can count on me to be dependable, communicative, and a consistent part of your pet’s routine, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for every time we’re together. As a full-time student with a very flexible summer schedule, I have plenty of availability to provide reliable and consistent pet care. I’m an active person who enjoys daily walks and runs, so dog walking naturally fits into my routine. I love spending time outdoors, and I’m committed to making sure every dog gets the exercise, attention, and care they deserve. I always follow your instructions and make your pet’s safety my top priority. I’ll make sure your dog gets the right amount of exercise based on their age, energy level, and needs while keeping them comfortable and happy throughout the walk. I pay close attention to leash safety, avoid situations that could be stressful or unsafe, and will always treat your pet as if they were my own. You can also expect regular updates and photos, so you’ll know your dog is having a great time while you’re away.
“Jessica was great! She clearly loves animals and my pup bonded with her. It is always hard to leave a pup with someone new, but Jessica was very thoughtful in introducing my Bonni to her pets, and she held Bonni to give her comfort at drop off and kept me updated with pictures. I will not hesitate to drop Bonni off with her again.”
“I’m a first time dog owner and I was beyond impressed with Chelsie with our 6 month old puppy. She would send pictures and kept us updated. She was even willing to come pick up our puppy instead of us having to meet her at her place once. We will continue to use Chelsie in the future.”
“Keith and Rachel were super welcoming to our dog, they walked her even during the day, gave her lots of attention and care, and sent frequent photos. We felt completely at easy and would happily book with them again.”
“I’m so happy I found Jayla! I was a bit nervous about having someone I didn’t know keep my fur baby, but after our Meet & Greet I knew this would be a match! Jayla is pleasant, flexible with her schedule and communicates very well. My pup also took to her instantly, so that pretty much sealed the deal :-). I’ll definitely return as a customer and recommend to others!!”
“Lily loved Adrian right away 🥰 Adrian was very easy going and cordial. His time and service gave our visit to MD Anderson some relief knowing Lily was being well taken care of.”
“I recently moved from Austin to Houston and the hardest part is always looking for a new place to board my dog. My dog is completely blind and really is clingy to me. She’s dared to me, so I am always cautious about where I have her say. But this daycare day was amazing for her. I got lots of photos which always makes me feel better. Because I can see that she’s OK! The report cards are also very thorough, which is amazing! The ladies are so kind and let me come in and see the space. I love that they are crate free minus meal times! I’m so relieved to have found this Dogsitter and lemon will be coming often as I travel!”
“Burak took the best care of Kai! He was so accommodating to our schedule and made this trip super easy! Can’t wait to be back in Houston and see him again! Thank you Burak!”
“Chant was very friendly and had a few other dogs staying at her place the day my doggo stayed with her. They had a great time together and it was nice to get some photo updates that Chant sent during the day. Communication was great!”
“My dog had his first visit with Stephanie and it was great. Stephanie sends pictures without being prompted. She explained everything to me as a first timer and my dog really enjoyed being loved on by Stephanie. I will rebook.”
About: Dogs are treated like family in my home! ❤️ I work from home, which allows me to be with your pup throughout the day and provide plenty of attention, affection, potty breaks, playtime, walks, and snuggles. I have 10 years of experience caring for dogs and understand that every pup has their own personality and routine. Whether your dog is energetic and loves to play, prefers relaxing and cuddling on the couch, or needs a little extra patience while adjusting to a new environment, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I live in a house with a backyard, giving your pup plenty of opportunities to get outside throughout the day for fresh air, potty breaks, playtime, and some extra room to stretch their legs. 🐾 I also enjoy taking dogs on walks and keeping them active based on their normal routine and energy level. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, breeds, and energy levels, and I’m happy to follow your feeding, sleeping, medication, and daily routines as closely as possible. I know leaving your dog with someone new can be stressful, so communication is important to me. You can expect regular photo and video updates so you can see how your pup is doing and enjoy your time away knowing they’re being well cared for. My goal is for your dog to feel safe, loved, comfortable, and cared for while they’re here, their own little home away from home. ❤️🐶 I work from home, so your pup will have plenty of company, attention, and care throughout the day! 🐾 My flexible schedule allows for frequent potty breaks, backyard time, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of cuddles. I’m available for both weekday and weekend boarding and can follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I have a backyard for supervised potty breaks and playtime, and plenty of space inside my home to relax and get comfortable. I follow each owner’s instructions for feeding, medications, routines, sleeping arrangements, and any special needs. I can also crate your pup if that is part of their normal routine. I want every dog to feel safe, comfortable, and at home while staying with me. ❤️
About: I grew up on a farm in Indiana and we were known as a place folks could dump big dogs. At one point we had 5 adult St Bernards - so I do love big dogs. However, even though I’m on the first floor, there are stairs and elevators to get to the outside. If you big dog struggles with stairs this might not be the happiest place for them. Overall, I have been around dogs are all sizes all my life. My only request is that they like cats as I have 3 boys who are not brave. I’m a healthcare analyst who works 99% of the time remote. My complex as a lovely dog park and I live in a highly walkable part of Midtown/Montrose. I’m in a complex with a lovely dog park and will require the use of a leash when the dog isn’t in my home or in a fenced dog park.

“Bailee was kind enough to stop by and meet Cooper before her first official walk! She took the time to navigate the building and to learn about Cooper’s quirks and needs. We are so excited to book with her and I’m relieved to know he’ll be in good hands!”
“We were out of town and our grandma was staying at our house who is unable to walk our dog. Tony did an excellent job taking care of our dog coming over to walk once a day for two weeks. He is very dependable and has excellent communication! Would recommend.”
“Cameron was great! Arrived on time to take my boy out, took great pictures, and even stayed a little bit to play with him since he didn't walk the whole time! Would hire her again to walk my dog anytime!”

“Sarah was heaven-sent this last week while my husband was in the hospital, and I was unable to do our daily walks. We have a VERY strong Great Dane who is dog reactive, and she handled him beautifully. Our other dog is a Chihuahua mix and is also dog reactive, so walking them together can be a challenge. Sarah came over for a meet and greet and that went so well I had no concerns about her ability to take over for the rest of the week. Plus they LOVE her! Thank you Sarah- Happy Holidays and see you in 2026!”
“Sama is an absolutely fantastic pet sitter! She is incredibly reliable, always on time, and communicates regularly with updates, which gives me great peace of mind. My dog adores her, and it’s clear she has a natural way with animals. She also handles all pets with care and professionalism. I highly recommend Sama to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving caregiver for their pets!”
About: I have been surrounded by animals my whole life. My mom was a pet sitter when I was young, and she has taught me how to be a responsible, respectful, patient, and fun care taker for any type of pet. I have also volunteered in animal shelters, working with timid dogs who need a special type of attention. I have 4 dogs of my own, and have owned 3 cats, 3 guinea pigs, and a fish previously. I am love animals and would be thrilled to take care of your furry friends. ❤️ I work fully remotely so my schedule is fairly flexible. I would prefer morning, evening, or lunchtime visits. I’m happy to work around your schedule! In order to ensure trust and safety for your pets, I will carefully and strictly follow any and all criteria set. Creating a comfortable environment for you, me, and the furry friend is the most important part of the job!
About: My name is Jennifer, I’m a big animal lover and I’ve been pet sitting for the last 8yrs. I have an alaskan malamute and 3 guinea pigs of my own but I’ve taken care of many other pets. I’m willing to walk, feed, bathe and play with your furry friends. I’m the owner of my own petsitting business, I love taking care of animals and available at anytime when needed depending on my schedule. I always make sure to respond and communicate with pet parents I’m a big animal lover so when I take care of pets, I get excited just getting to know and take care of them. It’s always my #1 concern that the pets i’m sitting are fully taken care of and safe.
About: I’ve cared for companion, sport, and service dogs for most of my life. I’m currently raising my fourth dog, a beautiful German Shepherd named Pancake. She behaves politely in busy coffee shops, streets, and crowds. I love that I can take her anywhere with me without worrying how she’ll react to unfamiliar dogs and people—she loves just about anyone! Getting Pancake from a rambunctious eight-week-old puppy to the well-mannered adult she is now took tremendous effort. Just like you, I know first-hand how much time, energy, and care it takes to raise our pets. Rest assured, I will care for your family as I care for mine. I work my main job from home and set my own schedule, so I can fit a wide range of times. Please don’t hesitate to reach out about any scheduling details. One thing worth knowing up front: I never rush a visit. If your dog needs a few extra minutes, those are on me at no extra charge, and I give every client the same courtesy. Because a visit now and then runs long, I keep some flexibility around start times. I always aim for your booked time, but please allow up to 30 minutes on either side. For a 2:00 PM booking, that means I may arrive anytime between 1:30 PM and 2:30 PM. Your pet’s safety and well-being always comes first. They’ll have my full attention the whole time we’re together. I’m constantly reading their mood, behavior, and surroundings, so I can catch anything that seems off early and keep them comfortable and happy.
