“Highly recommend Bart and Radha for your fur baby. They took excellent care of our dog and gave frequent updates with pictures and videos of what he is up to. Our dog returned home well rested and happy. They accommodate all your request sand make sure to give you dog a at home feel.”
“Andrew is a great sitter! He sends videos and pictures constantly which helped when I was missing my puppies! He followed the instructions I left perfectly, and I will definitely use him again in the future!”
“This was my first experience using Rover, I was a bit nervous about leaving my baby with a stranger. Rodnie quickly put those concerns to rest. My pup was treated as part of the family. He was well loved and cared for. I will definitely book with Rodnie in the future. She is communicative, kind, and most of all, a dog lover. Do not hesitate to book with her!”
“Had to find a dog sitter last minute and Amber was so accommodating and took such good care of our dog! She was super communicative and sent lots of photos and gave updates. You can tell she really loves the animals she cares for 💖”
“Absolutely loved working with Chad! He was really patient and took such special care of my sweet boy. I got tons of pictures and updates throughout the stay, which really helped ease my mind. I also appreciated getting to do a meet and greet beforehand so I could see where my dog would be staying. It made a huge difference. I’d definitely recommend Chad if your dog has separation anxiety or doesn’t do well in crates. He doesn’t take on too many overnighters at once, so I knew my dog wouldn’t just be a number. Great experience all around!”
“We had such a great experience with Bekah! We ended up having a day trip we knew would be longer than we wanted to leave our dog home for and she took such great care of him and sent us a perfect amount of updates. She responded super timely and was just great! Our dog came home super happy. Highly recommend.”
“Natalee is great. She took care of my dogs on short notice and treated them like her own. I appreciated the updates from her and how responsive she is concerning individual dog care institutions. Highly recommend her to anyone.”
“One thousand percent would recommend!! They clearly spent time and care ensuring our dogs were 100% comfortable and cared for, and they gave us consistent updates on how they were doing the entire week we were gone. Absolutely will rebook in the future!”
“Second time leaving our babies with Leslie and she was as awesome as ever! Our girls are pretty high maintenance and she is so caring and great with them. Our pups have so much fun with her dog Junie, that it doesn’t feel like we are leaving our pups behind, but rather at Dog Disney :) cannot recommend Leslie enough!”
“Zora took amazing care of our dog Kona. She provided lots of pictures, videos and updates and we knew he was in good hands. He got along well with her dog, Zara, too. Would definitely rebook!”
“Mina was absolutely wonderful in taking care of our Teddy! She went above and beyond, constantly sending us pictures and videos, which made us feel connected and reassured the entire time. Thanks to her updates, we never had the chance to miss him too much. Teddy was clearly happy and well-loved in her care. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter — highly recommended! We are going back to her again and again ! :)”
“Megan and her family did an amazing job watching our sweet pup! She was always quick to respond to messages and gave daily updates along with pictures. Our dog was so happy staying with them and he got all the love and attention he could want. I would strongly recommend her to anyone in the area.”
“Shevell is very responsive to messages/texts and the great communication helped me with planning the boarding, ensuring she knew our dogs Taylor and Charli's normal routines and behavior, etc., and just overall made me feel comfortable and at ease with her watching our pups. At drop-off, I met her oldest son who was going to help and he was sweet and great with Taylor and Charli. My dogs seemed to feel comfortable right when I dropped them off (our more nervous dog took longer, but even she started exploring right away lol)! Shevell sent me adorable updates during our trip and when I picked them up, Taylor and Charli seemed happy as could be. Shevell let me know that all went well, and they got along her dog - I couldn't be happier and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Cathrin was wonderful! She took great care of Wylie and kept me updated throughout his stay. Despite his neediness, she made sure he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It gave me so much peace of mind while I was away, and I would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Elisa was available in short notice. She was very quick in replying to my messages. I loved that she sent me pictures of Roky playing with her family and kept me updated. Roky seemed very happy and loved by Elisa and her family. Thank you Elisa!”

About: I have cared for many different kinds of cat and I’ve loved every one of them. I’m writing this with a grumpy cat snuggled up on my lap. I’m happy to arrange overnight sits without my dog (he can have a play date at a friend’s house) if your pets are not fans of dogs.
“We had a lovely experience booking Andrea. We got lots of updates, pictures, and videos of our kitties. Andrea was very thoughtful and gave our cat his medicine even when we were about to be home so we had one less thing to do after a hectic day. I would definitely book again if our cats needed watching ☺️”
“Beth is excellent with the dogs and easy to communicate with. We've trusted Beth with watching our dogs on a routine basis, and we are excited to continue working with her. Highly recommend!”
“Kellie was absolutely phenomenal. The moment Kellie came over to meet my pets, a good two weeks before my travel, I knew my fur babies would be in trustworthy, caring and knowledgeable hands. Kellie made sure she understood the needs of both my animals and understood what was needed to make sure they felt safe and loved in my absence. Kelli checked in with me multiples times a day, letting me know what was going on. She also went above and beyond what was required of her, from making sure my garbage cans were on the curb for pick-up day to watering my plants. If you are on the fence with using Rover to care for your pets while you are traveling or at work, I get it. I was too, but rest assured that will Kellie your cherished fur babies are safe and taken care of, and your home is not at risk.”
“Tinisha was great with our pups for drop in visits in our home. We had to be away from the house for the day last minute and I was so relieved to know they were well taken care of with the great updates and pics. Thank you!”
About: I have enjoyed my life around numerous animals of all backgrounds. Growing up in the north granted me the privilege of owning huskies and training them for years! Stubbornness is no problem with me. I have experience with working through territorial aggression and severe medical needs. I have been through obedience training with all of my dogs. I love being around cats as well and have owned cats my entire life! I am available any day, anytime! No morning is too early for a check in or walk and no night is too late. Your pet’s schedule is my schedule! I respect security and privacy! The care of another persons home is sacred and I would only want someone else respecting my space as well. Let me know if you have any concerns about the environment your pet will be in!
About: I have owned 2 cats over the years. They were both indoor and outdoor cats. They were litter trained and very friendly. I’m a part-time remotely working licensed realtor so I’ve been fingerprinted and FBI background checked for your safety and peace of mind.
“Despite Monet watching our cat over the holidays and not being around as much as we had hoped, she took good care of our boy. Our cat needs attention 24/7 and when she was there, we knew he was looked after and given love, treats and attention. She did a great job updating us with pictures and videos and even got the best pictures of them snugging in bed every night!”

“Lillian was fantastic! She was an excellent fit for us, and extremely flexible! She took care of our pets like they were her own. We will definitely use her again! Too bad we can’t give her 10 stars!!!”

“Jax seemed to have had a fun time spending the day with Jordan and her pets. Jordan was great at sending me updates and pictures. Jax will be staying a few days with Jordan in the near future so it was great for them to spend a full day together getting to know each other.”
“I left my Australian Shepard with Isabelle for daycare for two days, as I was dropping him off for the second day he was so excited to see Isabelle which I knew it meant he was in good hands. Isabelle was always responsive and gave me updates while he was with her. She also took him along for their daily walk which I appreciated. Thank you again Isabelle!”
About: I'm an animal lover! I always had animals growing up; having cats & dogs. Also had a guinea pig, a chinchilla, several birds, a turtle, bunnies and bearded dragons. Our furbabies are like our children! I am a professional petsitter, fostering dogs & cats, training them and rescuing animals. Currently, I have 4 cats (mine) & 2 bearded dragons and 1 small dog (mom's). I have experiences with seniors and blind furbabies. I also have experiences dealing with flight risk, severe anxiety pets and oral medication as well as injections. **DROP-IN VISIT** I live in Taylor, I can travel to Hutto, Granger, southeast of GT, East of Round Rock, Thorndale and Coupland. **BOARDING - Requirements: * Non-aggressive/low/medium energy (must be ok with other pets) * 100% house-trained includes trained to not chew on household items * Current on all vaccinations and flea prevention * Male felines must be neutered I ask you to provide food and bedding for your furbabies because every pet is different, has different lifestyles and eating/sleeping habits, toys. I have plenty of bowls and plenty of crates (XS, S, M, L, XL & XXL) including a 3 tier crate (for cats) if needed. My schedule is flexible, I'm almost always home. If weather permits, I enjoy going out for long hikes or going to parks/neighborhood for walks. ** Boarding & Housesitting - I'm available 7 days a week. The potty break/meal schedule is flexible on my end. They can go out often for potty breaks, to explore, fetch, and enjoy the sun as they please. Also, will provide outdoor play with engagement of other pups and can do some training as well. ** Housesitting - I will spend the nights with them. Sometimes I will be away for a few hours unless you instruct me for a specific time, such as how long it is ok to leave your pets alone, I will follow your preference. They are welcome to tag along for the ride if they enjoy car rides. -- During my free time I volunteer as a pet rescue member with Trapping, Rescue and Pet Recovery Service (TRAPRS), a non-profit organization. I have been with TRAPRS since they were founded in 2019. When I'm scheduled to pet sit, I will not be available to do a rescue. Only time I'll be away is if someone is able to secure an animal, Ill be out for a quick scan for microchip or if I'm scheduled to drop-in to visit other clients' homes. (I want to be transparent about what I do). I know it can be stressful leaving your family member with a stranger, but you can be confident that your furbaby/ies will be treated as one of the family; given plenty of love, hugs, belly scratches, treats, play time and walks during their stay. I have a fenced yard for your pup(s) to explore, do their business, enjoy the fresh air & flirt with the sun, and play fetch. I will send photos and videos of your furbaby having a great time! You are welcome to reach out to check on them at any time. They will be in good paws!

“We took our two boys for a day outing, as we are leaving them with Candi for a week while we are out of town here in a couple weeks and wanted to make sure they were familiar with her and her place before we leave them for that long. They had a blast…I know because they were pooped when they got home! We are looking forward to knowing that they will be loved and well taken care of for our future trip and I know they will be excited to go back! Candi was also VERY responsive to my messages, which I highly appreciate! Definitely the best doggie resort!”
“Skia who doesn't like to stay away from us and with other humans and dogs in our absence, loves to hangout with Mark and she is super happy to be with him and his dog (like a second home). Mark takes great care of the dogs and even feeds them when he feels they are hungry without a second thought. Great experience sending our pup to Mark's place !”
“Amanda was absolutely amazing!! She took great care of Bentley and sent some awesome photos of Bentley!! He looked so happy and came home exhausted so I know he had an awesome time! Thank you so much for watching our pup while we were out! I recommend her and will definitely book again next time we are in the area!!”
“What a wonderful first time experience having Cheyenne sit our Pluto. Pluto had very little interaction with other dogs and no interaction with cats before, so obviously we were very nervous in leaving him. Cheyenne not only assured us that she will take good care of Pluto, she went above and beyond our expectations. She posted regular pictures throughout the day, kept us updated on his feeding patterns as well as on his playtime with other dogs.”
“Some of the best doggie sitters out there! Our older little Paco has had a wonderful experience staying with Radha and Bart. Very professional and super attentive! Lovely people who sincerely look after our dog, and send lots of pictures and updates, which we appreciate so much. Highly recommended!!”
“Brandon watched my 4 month old pup for the day and did a great job. As soon as I dropped her off she was running and playing. Brandon was easy to communicate with and the drop off and pick up was super simple. I’d definitely book Brandon again when I’m looking for someone to watch my husky pup.”
About: I’ve had pets since I was child and absolutely love animals. My kids have developed the same passion. We love taking care of animals as a family and have a few rescues of our own. Tito is our chihuahua who loves other small dogs. Our cats, Binx and Lizzie are tolerant of dogs and are use to having them around. I’m a stay at home mom to three kids. Except for the occasional outing or trip to the grocery store, we are just about always home. We have a very large fenced in back yard, so your pup will have plenty of room to play. Feel free to reach out with any questions, and I hope that you consider us to care for your fur babies. ❤️ Pickup and drop off is by appointment only. You can make an appointment for between the hours of 8am-6pm. Your appointment window cannot be greater than one hour. If you miss your drop off window by more than 15 minutes, the booking will be cancelled, and no refund given. If you are more than 15 minutes late picking up, you will have to reschedule your pickup time, if that means your pet stays another night, then you will be charged for an additional night plus a $30 inconvenience fee. I understand that things happen, and will work with you when unexpected events arise, but I’ve had too many people not respecting my time. I thank you for understanding. (: I follow care instructions completely. I give each animal one on one attention throughout the day. I treat them like they’re one of my kids. My children are very respectful of animals and are never left unsupervised with them.
“We have a 5 month old Golden Retriever puppy who had never been around other people or dogs thanks to COVID. I had a last minute opportunity to get the vaccine but needed a place for the puppy. Sara was great and open to my unknown schedule since I had no idea how long I’d have to wait. Puppy had a good time. I’d definitely use Sara again.”
About: I've taken care of dogs for about 7 years now. years now. Friends and family have relied on me to care for their pets (cats, dogs, hedgehogs). I've been known to be an animal person and we normally get comfortable with each other very quickly. I promise you, I'll love them like they're my own! :) I work from home which means I am a great person to sit with them all day or take them out on walks around the neighborhood! :) If I’m coming to you, I do my very best to respect your baby’s space and preferences. As much as I want to jump in and give them all the lovins’, I will wait until they are comfortable with me so they're not afraid. If you’re coming to me, we live in a first floor apartment right by the dog park, so, we have easy access for potty time! We also have lots of space to set up beds/food/toys/etc. Dogs are allowed on the couch and, depending on size, we don't mind them in the bed. I do have a dog of my own. Her name is Cleo and she is a small poodle mix. We will also bring her to the meet and greet so that she can be familiar. She can be a little shy, but never mean. She warms up fairly quickly and she's great at making people and other doggos feel welcome and comfortable. In a past life, she was a mama so she is very loving and gentle with puppies.
About: For the last 4 years I’ve had the honor of taking care of my own as well as my parents dog since they were puppies. Whenever my friends and family need a sitter, they trust that I’ll maintain walking and feeding schedules as though they never left, and as an added bonus, their dogs will be treated like little prince and princesses. I’m comfortable with dogs that might need to take oral medication due to being ill, as well as dogs who just like to be cuddled or played with. I currently work 4 days a week for my full time job that can be a bit overwhelming. Finding my fur baby brought me so much joy in a time when I needed it. Allowing me to care for your extended family member would be an honor. I ensure that pets are properly groomed, paws and butts wiped if needed. I ensure pets are fed based off of proportions given, and also make sure that they adhere to a schedule that includes, outside time both on and off leash to help with boredom and behavioral concerns.

About: Hello! My name is Jordan and I've been passionate towards all animals my entire life and have experience with a variety of different species. I've worked as an animal care intern at a wildlife rehab and as a kennel technician where my primary duties were to work closely with veterinary staff to provide care for animals of all shapes and sizes. This experience plus a life long history with animals has allowed me to recognize each pet's individual personalities so that I may tailor my care to fit their exact needs. My goal is to treat your pets with respect and warmth in order to ensure their happiness while you’re away. I'm sensitive, flexible and empathetic to the individual needs of your pet so that their time apart from you is happy and stress free. I'm communicative and open so that you can rest assured knowing how much fun your pet is having under my care. As a pet parent of many different species myself, I understand the dedication and love you have for your pets and I understand the desire for an accountable, kind caregiver. I am also able to accommodate any special requests, such as if you would prefer your dog be crated during certain times, if your pet needs medications administered during the day and much more. Additionally, I have experience with invertebrates, reptiles, birds, small mammals, dogs and cats. I live on 20 acres of mowed and maintained land with a secure fence that will give your babies plenty of space to run around and explore. In addition, I provide a cozy, peaceful home environment where your pet is welcome to explore, settle in, and relax at their own pace. With plenty of comfortable spaces to lounge, play, and feel secure, I strive to create an stress-free atmosphere that helps every pet feel right at home during their stay. If I’m going to your home, I will be respectful and courteous to any rules and maintain the standard of care you treat your animals with. Being a stay-at-home mom gives me the flexibility to care for pets in a way that truly fits their individual needs. Because I’m home throughout the day, I can adjust feeding times, walks, play, and quiet moments based on each pet’s personality, age, and energy level. This flexibility means my care isn’t one-size-fits-all. If your pet needs more frequent bathroom breaks, extra exercise, or just a little reassurance and companionship, I’m able to respond right away instead of sticking to a strict timetable and I can easily monitor changes in behavior or health. My daily routine may be full, but it’s adaptable—and that makes all the difference in giving pets the individualized attention they deserve. In my home, pets are welcomed into a calm, supervised environment where they can relax and follow a consistent routine. When caring for your pets at your home, I focus on maintaining their familiar routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs—so they feel comfortable and secure. My hands-on experience working with many types of animals—different species, breeds, ages and temperaments—gives me the confidence to handle everything. Whether you need me to care for your scaly, feathered, or furry friends, my goal is always the same: to make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while their family is away.
About: I’ve always loved taking care of animals, my own and others, since I was very young. I am comfortable around all dogs- I’m happy to take care of puppies, as well as older pups, who need their own TLC. If you entrust me with the privilege of looking after your fur baby, I will love them as if they are my own! I am happy to make drop ins/potty breaks/walks with your pup as needed. I am mostly available weekdays from 7-5pm but if needed, we can work together to find a schedule that works for your fur baby, as I can be flexible. I can work according to your needs. When caring for an animal in your home or mine, I will always be extra careful with opening and closing doors, to make sure no dog becomes an escape artist! I can feed, bathe, give medication, etc, as needed. Any special instructions, I am more than happy to adapt and learn how best to take care of your animal. When I come to care for your animal, I devote my time to loving them.
About: I’m new to the rover app but, I’m not new to taking care of fur babies! While growing up we always had pets. When I left for college I got a puppy because of how much I missed my pups at home. I potty trained him all on my own while also juggling being a student athlete. I want to help out the best I can, so put me to work:) I am a part time hitting coach in the evenings so, I will have plenty of time to help you with your fur babies. I am off every weekend. I can take your pets on walks or play fetch to get them moving. I also can sit and just love on your pups whenever you are at work or away for a bit.
“My dog absolutely LOVED Kimmie from the very first meeting. And my pup can be somewhat reserved around new people so that told me all I needed to know about Kimmie’s ability to connect to pets. Kimmie is very professional, reliable and trustworthy. I would highly recommend her.”
About: I have been working part time with Rover for several years. I recently had to put my 13-year-old lab down, so I do not currently have any pets. Animals are the brightest part of our world and nothing makes me happier than spending time with doggies and kitties. I currently volunteer for PALS, a program under Meals on Wheels, that provides food for animals in senior homes. I loved to walk my dog and would be more than happy to provide dog walking services to others on the weekends. I work weekdays, but am available after 5 pm and will work Saturdays, and Sundays. I cannot wait to get started and meet all the sweet babies! I currently work weekdays, but can devote time after work and weekends. I can utilize lunch breaks to check on pets and nights and weekends for more one on one time. I own a home with a fenced in yard for my dog. I will do anything and everything to ensure your animal’s safety and happiness.
About: I’ve been a big dog lover since I was practically born! I love all kinds of the dogs, the big, the small, the crazy, and the shy ones! I’m good with medicine and scheduled feeding sessions! I’ve taken care of dogs that have medical issues, such as seizures or joint issues. I can handle the hyper puppies and cuddle the lazy senior dogs❤️ I’m ready to treat your dog with love and patience! Hi! My name is Faith and i’m 20 years old. I work part time right now so i’m free to care for any animal during the day and night! I work at a horse ranch between 3-6 pm during the weekday, so I can be with your dog all day! I do have dogs of my own but they will always stay home! When house sitting or drop in visits, I will make sure everything is safe during visits or outside time! I’m good with crating dogs or doing whatever they need to feel safe around me
About: I love working with all cats and dogs. Some love to play, others love to cuddle, a lot love both! If the pet is happy then everyone's happy! I am available mainly weekends. I am a teacher so a perfect scenario for your weekend getaway! After May 24th, I'll be available all days of the week. I make sure the pet is happy! If they have everything they need and stay on their regular schedule, we can have a lot of fun! I enjoy taking dogs to the park, going on walks, and helping training for new tricks.
About: I have worked with small dogs and big dogs and nervous dogs- I have owned my own doggo (a shih tzu bichon mix for 10 years) since I rescued her from a poodle shelter. I have worked as an assistant training emotional support animals at a rehabilitation facility (: I would love to hang out with your doggo babies when you need me! I am an early riser and work part-time in pet care. It is my primary job- I have regular clients that are my own aside of rover so my calendar on app may be inaccurate. In the clients home- your pet(s) are my first priority and my second priority is your home. Boarding at my home- your pet is still my first priority! We have 1 budgie, 2 cockatiels, 3 dogs, and 2 kittens!
About: I've had animals since I was a girl and haven't been without a pet since I was 10 years of age. Have had multiple dogs and cats at one time but now down to one 13-yr old male. Will always love and have pets as they are an integral part of my life. I derive much joy from their presence. Daily walks and attention to my own dog and look in on friend's dogs when they're away. My dog has his own bed for daytime but sleeps in my bed at night. I have a good sense about animals and will follow the routine they're used to. I love to connect with any animal if they want it and will give cuddles and rubs for comfort and love ❤️
About: I have extensive experience with a diverse range of animals, including longhorns, horses, dogs, cats, . Additionally, I volunteer at the Williamson County Regional Animal Shelter, where I have gained significant experience in dog walking and working in various cat areas. My training primarily focuses on dog walking, ensuring that I provide the best care and attention to the animals. Currently, my regular engagements primarily involve overnight stays at the owner's house, although these are quite sporadic. Additionally, I volunteer at the shelter, and I maintain a flexible schedule to accommodate various needs. I prefer not to bring pets to my home because they feel more comfortable in their own environment. It's healthier for them to stay in a familiar place, especially for foster or shelter dogs with difficult pasts. Additionally, my dogs wouldn't welcome other dogs on our property.

“Brooke is amazing! She is so good with my pups. They are young and maybe a little wild, but Brooke is so patient with them. I have absolutely no worries when they are with her. I think they may enjoy walking with her even more than me! :) Brooke has been flexible and is very dependable. So glad we found her!”
About: I’ve been fostering animals and volunteering at shelters since I was a kid, so I’m really comfortable around animals and enjoy being with them. I have fostered pregnant cats, kittens who required medical care, and dog sat for friends and family, too. People always describe me as gentle and caring with animals! I’m a college student with a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets! I’m available most afternoons after 4 PM and on weekends, so I’m a great option for evening walks, drop-ins, or weekend care. I primarily care for pets in my clients’ homes, where they feel most comfortable and can stay in their normal routine. For dogs, I provide walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention based on their energy level and needs. For cats, I handle feeding, litter box cleaning, and give them as much interaction (or space) as they prefer. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely to keep things consistent for your pet. I make sure they get plenty of care, attention, and a calm, safe environment while you’re away.
About: *Currently looking for gigs near for July 25-Aug 2nd this month** Hello! I am a recent Wellesley College graduate but I come from a big family in Austin, Texas. I've looked after dogs, cats, plants, and plenty of farm animals. I adore animals and have two dogs of my own back home. I have great communication and I am willing to send regular updates and photos to give owners peace of mind. I read and respond to signals that animals give attentively so your pets will be in great hands! I am looking forward to caring for your homes and pets. I am currently looking for jobs before starting grad school in the fall. I babysit occasionally, but I am often not away for more than 3-5 hours. My home is currently being renovated so I will not be hosting any pets there at the moment. I am happy to consider in home pet care after renovations are finished.

“Absolutely loved working with Chad! He was really patient and took such special care of my sweet boy. I got tons of pictures and updates throughout the stay, which really helped ease my mind. I also appreciated getting to do a meet and greet beforehand so I could see where my dog would be staying. It made a huge difference. I’d definitely recommend Chad if your dog has separation anxiety or doesn’t do well in crates. He doesn’t take on too many overnighters at once, so I knew my dog wouldn’t just be a number. Great experience all around!”
“Natalee is great. She took care of my dogs on short notice and treated them like her own. I appreciated the updates from her and how responsive she is concerning individual dog care institutions. Highly recommend her to anyone.”
“One thousand percent would recommend!! They clearly spent time and care ensuring our dogs were 100% comfortable and cared for, and they gave us consistent updates on how they were doing the entire week we were gone. Absolutely will rebook in the future!”
“Second time leaving our babies with Leslie and she was as awesome as ever! Our girls are pretty high maintenance and she is so caring and great with them. Our pups have so much fun with her dog Junie, that it doesn’t feel like we are leaving our pups behind, but rather at Dog Disney :) cannot recommend Leslie enough!”
“Mina was absolutely wonderful in taking care of our Teddy! She went above and beyond, constantly sending us pictures and videos, which made us feel connected and reassured the entire time. Thanks to her updates, we never had the chance to miss him too much. Teddy was clearly happy and well-loved in her care. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter — highly recommended! We are going back to her again and again ! :)”
“Candi took amazing care of Thunder man! We booked the boarding very last minute and I was unprepared. She was understanding and has such a warm personality. I knew my Thunder was in great hands. Thank you so much!”
“Brandon took great care of our girl CoCo! He communicated and sent pictures throughout her stay which was great. Would definitely board with him again. Thank you so much!”
“Jordan came through last minute for us and was awesome! She has an awesome house for dogs and it was well worth the drive from Austin to drop my pups off. Provided lots of pictures and updated. Will definitely book again when needed!”
“Jerica was wonderful! It's been a while since I have boarded my dogs somewhere and I really wanted a more personal & homey space for them this time. Communication was excellent, she was able to tell me exactly what they liked and didn't like which was good to know. Was also very patient and kind to them. Will definitely be using Jerica's services in the future. 10/10 recommend!”
“Princie is great with my dog. Princie was so accommodating and patient to my questions and inquiries. My dog is very comfortable there with boarding as she gets anxious and nervous in new environments and people. Princie ensured she was comfortable and able to settle in well, along with their dog as well. Clean and tidy home. So glad to have found her. Will definitely be using Princie again very soon!”
“Miho is an amazing caring and trustable dog sitter. Our Ella loved spending time with Miho and her wonderful Arden, felt welcoming and had so much fun. Also the daily updates and pictures made the time away from our baby much easier. Thank you so much :)”
“The family is amazing. Chester was so lucky to have 4 new little friends who really cherish and take good care of him. They offered to take him on extra walks and even washed his bedding. We found a lovely note days after he’s back. It’s really precious to have sitters like Kari’s family.”
“Star responded immediately to my request for a dog sitter, on short notice. She had a nice big room for Willow and nearby dog park. Willow is an older dog on meds twice a day, she handled this with no problem. She sent me photos every day of Willow doing dog stuff, it helped set my mind at ease. I would definitely recommend her.”
“Jehisson was amazing! He provided lots of updates with photos of my happy pup. It is obvious he had a lot of outdoor fun on his pup vacation. He was outside daily doing walks and playing. Walter came home happy and healthy. I would definitely book with Jehisson again! Thank you so much for taking care of Walter.”
“Cynthia was very kind with me and my pup. She sent photos and updates which I really appreciated, since it was our 1st time booking. We will definitely be book again my Quincey loves it over there.”
“Jamie and her family were very accommodating, last-minute request for two female pit bulls. They brought Zoey and Zepplin in to their family and treated them like one of their own pets. Very much appreciated.”
