“We are repeat clients of Ms. Lori's and it's so funny watching my pups walk into her house like they live there! They immediately get comfortable and I can tell they are looked after very well with Ms. Lori!”

“Amy is amazing with our fur baby. She loves her like her own. Our baby is always excited when she sees Amy which puts my heart at ease while we are away. Amy is wonderful about sending out pictures and updates which I love because you don’t get that from a boarding place. Our baby feels very much at home when she spends time with Amy!”
“Susan and her husband were great! My dogs both loved staying there and had a great time with their sweet dog, Zoey. It truly was a home away from home for them! Susan sent lots of photos and kept me updated on my pups through the whole visit. I would definitely recommend Susan. You won't find anyone better to care for your pups!”


“Selma did a great job with Saar. Puppies are so full of energy and Saar has been no exception. Thank you so much for taking care of my girl. We look forward to being a regular overnighter”

“Jordan was great. She put my mind at ease during our meet and greet. My dogs had an amazing time and definitely felt right at home. We will definitely rebook.”

“I couldn't be happier with the care and love Lacinda shared with my Mel. I'm glad I found Lacinda on Rover. All the photos and videos she shared daily help us spend our holiday in peace, knowing that my Poppy was cared for and happy. I'm sure Mel will miss the time she spent playing with her friends. We'll be back soon for sure.”

“Gina and her family were amazing and taking excellent care of Bailey for almost 3 days. Bailey was happy, and excited and had much cuddle time during his stay. I love it so much when Gina lets him stay on her couch with her and her dog throughout the day. And Gina sent me updates on Bailey's activities very frequently. We will be back to Gina for Bailey's boarding in the future!”

“Ryan, Lisa, and the family were great. Super easy to work with and the 1st time our dog has eaten all his food while being boarded. Very happy and will definitely use again.”

“Katherine was absolutely amazing. This was our first time leaving our precious boy with anyone for a trip. So, this was our first time using Rover, also. After, much research, we felt Katherine would be a great fit. Thank God, we were right. She was super responsive from the very beginning. She kept us comfortable and reassured that our boy was doing well by sending several updates and pictures. We will definitely use Katherine for future trips! Highly recommend.”

“We had a great experience! She took care of Harley and Davidson for four days and treated them like her own. We got regular updates and pictures the whole time, which really gave us peace of mind while we were away. Both dogs were happy, well cared for, and clearly got plenty of attention. We’ll definitely be using her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

“Amazing fur baby care provider!!! Michael initiated communication with me as this was Jenifers first time with him. Jenifers came home and jumped in her bed, slept for hours which is a sign that she played and stayed busy all week. I’ve definitely found my caretaker.”

“Elena watch my girl for a weekend. She was great! She sent me updates throughout the weekend, and was great to Communicate with. Was so nice to have peace of mind knowing my furbaby was safe and was being cared for really well. Will def book with her again!”


“Michele did a great job taking care of our dog! She was also very quick in responding to any questions even before the actual vacay. It sounded like our dog had a great time with Michele and her dogs and they all got along very well!”
“Our Yorkie loved staying with Stella- I was afraid she wouldn’t want to come home! I felt so comfortable leaving her in responsible, caring hands. The daily pictures w/ updates were fun and appreciated!! Despite a finicky appetite, daily meds and very “stuck in her way” habits our dog thrived. Before we never left home b/c of the dog… now thanks to Stella we have a world of opportunities! 💕”

“Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Bella. The care you gave her, the attention to detail and updates relieved my mind when I had to leave town on short notice.”

She was attentive to every detail, and kept us updated with photos and notes that gave us total peace of mind. We wholeheartedly recommend Christin to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.”


About: I understand that cats thrive on comfort, routine, and a calm presence. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or needs special care, I take the time to connect on their terms—providing gentle, attentive companionship so they feel safe and loved while you're away.
“Emma has house-sat my cats twice for extended periods. She keeps me updated with photos and asks questions if needed. She’s easy to communicate with and responds promptly. My cats always have a blast with her and are well cared for and loved. On top of that, she leaves my place in the same or even better condition than when I left. As an anxious person and loving pet parent, I usually stress about leaving my kitties. However, when Emma is watching my babies, I’m not even worried because I know they’re in excellent hands!”

“Delys’s exceptional service helped us feel reassured during our first vacation since getting our cat, Clover. She is professional, friendly, and very thorough following instructions. Plus, Clover loved her! We’ll definitely book Delys again next time”


“Catherine was very professional. We hired her to do a drop in visit for our cat while we were away. She listened to our needs and followed instructions closely. We were very satisfied and would not hesitate to book her again.”


“Darby was an absolute lifesaver, I got a work notice last minute and she stopped by the do a Meet and Greet and then dropped in the next day. She went above and beyond and was super understanding of all their idiosyncrasies. This was their first time having a stranger drop-in and they absolutely adored her!”

“Haley took good care of my cats and followed all the care instructions. Haley also gave my cats lots of pets and play with them which means she treats my cats like her own pets.”


“Keri is INCREDIBLE! I have 10 cats at my house and that is not an easy job. She went above and beyond with everything! It was my first time to leave my babies with someone, and I will definitely be hiring her again next time! They were so happy with her and they adored her! I highly recommend her to anyone! Again, she’s AMAZING y’all!!”

“First time using Rover, Chee did an a wonderful job looking out for my cat, sending pictures and being there on time all the time! Thank you Chee for taking such a great care of Kimchi!”

“Kristen & Jeff always go above and beyond!! They shared a few concerns about our cats’ food potentially not dispensing and added an extra check in last minute. They also cleaned up several pet messes. Highly recommend their services!”

“Krystal is absolutely wonderful. Our Dobby took to her right away and she was very responsible about coming on time and doing the things we had requested. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend her. We are very happy that we met Krystal and give her many thanks.”


“My regular sitter was away and I was in a bind. Mika stepped in , on Easter no less and saved the day! She is very communicative and asked questions to make sure everything was perfect, and it was! I highly recommend Mika to watch your babies.”

“Abby was great with our cat, Harley! She was super patient at the start and gave Harley space when she was a little scared. By the last day, Harley was already rubbing up against her and even showing her belly! Really appreciate her care—would definitely book again!”

“Emma is great. Good communication. I had concerns about my cat eating his soft food while at a sitter. Emma noted my concerns and regularly updated me on his eating. I will use her again.”

About: I’ve grown up around a variety of pets, from dogs to bunnies, so I’m very comfortable reading their behavior and making them feel at ease. I’m patient, attentive, and used to working in homes where pets are part of the family. My experience with house cleaning also means I’m respectful of your space and detail-oriented. I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind. I’m currently in school part time and also work part time, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I have plenty of availability throughout the week to dedicate to pet care, whether it’s walks, check-ins, or overnight stays. I’m able to adjust my routine to meet your pet’s specific needs and make sure they get consistent, reliable care. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by sticking to their usual routine as much as possible. In a client’s home, I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of exercise, and have lots of attention and care. I also keep the space clean and respect your home.

About: I have had cats since I was born (maybe 9 now?) along with sitting several. I know all the different personalities and quirks and love them. I can do low energy, high energy, group dynamics, medications, baths and more. Still, while being attentive to boundaries and building trust besides just petting them. (& I love cleaning!)

“Lacinda is AMAZING. She truly takes the time to not only get to know the pup but also us the owners. She goes above and beyond to ensure you have a very happy pup at the end of the visit. Would definitely recommend her to everyone I know and I will personally continue to book with her!! Thank you for being the best, Lacinda!!☺️”

“My dog thinks going to see Lori is like going on vacation. She loves the energy of the household and visiting with other dogs. I feel such gratitude that my dog is so well taken care of...she literally bolts out of the car to see Lori!”


“Selma was a great sitter! We were worried about our little pup adjusting to a new place with strangers, but Selma ensured us a welcoming, fun, and safe environment. Selma answered all our questions and sent us pictures throughout the day. She asked questions to fulfill our puppy’s needs and was mindful of our schedule. She will definitely work with you! Our pup had so much fun, she immediately missed her new friends! We look forward to more of her services!”

“Katherine was absolutely great in every aspect. She sent updates throughout the day with pictures, took our boy to play outside multiple times, and was willing to work with us on our weird schedule. We will definitely continue to use Katherine in the future!”

“This was a repeat visit with Mark and Claudia and sweet Hazel!! Mark and Claudia are fabulous and very caring dog sitters!! I will definitely request more dog sitting from them in the future.”

About: I have had pets for 45 years, mostly dogs. I love walking and playing with them! I have been a private sitter for family friends. I work full-time from home so can provide around the clock care in my home. I am flexible with my availability and can drive to you. I have a large fenced yard. I have 1 medium sized dog if your pets like play dates. Or I can provide private care or walks for your pet.
About: Hi my name is Meaghan! For 15 years I had a pug/jack russell. Due to old age, I lost my girl in 2020 and have been devastated. I thought about adopting another dog, but not quite ready for it. That’s why I thought this would be a great opportunity to not only make extra cash, but also just get a chance at hanging out with a bunch of dogs. As someone who was always scramming last minute for a sitter, I know what it’s like to need help but make sure it’s with someone trustworthy. I’m patient and I understand that all dogs are different. I just want to make sure they are loved at all times of the day. I think of my service like vacation - I play by their rules and we just try to have as much fun as possible! From letting dogs on furniture, having accidents, or just wanting to play around all day - I’m okay with anything. It’s truly their world and I’m just living in it. Right now, I work from home so I can provide a lot of attention and lots of works during boarding or house sitting. For drop-in’s and walks, it is all dependent on distance and time so that will vary. Just let me know exactly what you’re looking for and I can accommodate as best as I can. I treat animals as if they were my own. I understand things happen and it’s usually not their fault. So if an accident happens, that’s okay. Again, as long as there’s communication on what to expect, that’s what matters. I just want animals to be safe and feel loved.
“Elena was great! I would highly recommend her. Max seemed to be really happy staying with her, and playing with her sweet dog, Ginger. We also enjoyed the great photos she took of Max during his stay.”

“Sonia and Luis did a fantastic job taking care of my dogs while I was away. They are friendly and welcoming. They sent me pictures and videos to keep me updated of their day. I highly appreciate their care!!”

“Jackie is so good to our boy dipstick! He loves going to her house for doggy day care. He loves to play with her golden retriever Sasha! We highly recommend Jackie! She loves all dogs and really has a passion for caring and loving dogs!”

About: We have many years of experience taking care of fur babies, including those with special needs! We will walk, feed, and care of them as if they were part of our family. As I am retired and my oldest child has completed high school, there is ALWAYS someone here to take care of your furriest family members that stay with us. My daughter is interested in veterinary medicine, and is starting classes for that soon, so you'll have the best care we can provide! We live in a nice family neighborhood, with one dog of our own. She keeps to herself usually, but can be very friendly when engaged. There is a dog park nearby that we can take your fur baby to for exercise and fun.

“Heather was absolutely amazing! She took Neptune in last minute and was so accommodating with a meet-and-greet beforehand, which made me feel super comfortable. Throughout his three-day stay, she was incredibly communicative and so sweet — keeping me updated and making sure Neptune was happy and settled. When I dropped him off and picked him up, he seemed so excited to be there, especially with the other pup she was sitting and her kids (he loves playing with children!). I’m really thankful for how well she cared for him, and if I ever bring Neptune back to Houston, I’ll definitely be reaching out to Heather again. Highly recommend! 🐾💛”

About: I have always had a special place in my heart for dogs! I was a pet sitter for 10+ years, but recently took a short break after moving to a different part of the great state of Texas! I’ve also been a foster and greatly enjoyed and will hopefully get back into that soon as well. Now that we are settled, we are ready to welcome your sweet pet into our home and will love and care for them as if they were our very own! We are a no cat household, so sorry!! I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from puppy to seniors! Our dog pretty much has free rein in the house, however, if you have rules that need to be followed, I will be sure to keep their routine for you! We hope to welcome your sweet pet into our home soon so we can love on them for you while you enjoy your travels, and I will be sure to send you LOTS of pictures! Working from home allows me to be present for your pet for most of the day. Most days I am home 24/7. There may be times that I will run an errand or two, but I will never be away for more than 2 hours. I also have cameras in the house that I use to check on them if I am away, even for a short period of time. Your pets' well being is my priority during their entire stay. With a fenced yard, your dog will be able to enjoy outdoor time as often as they like. My dog, Lukka, loves to play and have fun with other dogs. He’s been around puppies and giant dogs alike. He’s a gentle boy and will let your dog be as playful with him as they like. Our main living areas are carpet free, so if there are any accidents, it’s very easy to clean up! As previously mentioned, your pets are welcome to be as free as they like in our home. We have dog beds in just about every room in our home, but you are welcome to bring your own as well. Please let me know your pets daily routine, dietary preferences, any medical conditions or medications, their temperament around other animals, and any specific training commands they respond to. Your pet will be treated as our very own. Unless you have specific rules, they will be allowed on our furniture and beds. We will, however, stick to your pets schedule and rules as requested.
“Couldn’t be more happier with my experience with Emeshako! She kept me updated daily throughout the day with the cutest photos and I will definitely say it kept me from worrying considering this is my first time using rover and she has set the bar for my first time! More then happy with my choice for a sitter! Very caring and thoughtful and gave me such positive energy! I felt extremely comfortable leaving my puppy in her arms! I will definitely be rebooking with Emeshako I don’t think I could trust anyone else more!”

And now I mostly foster abused or abandon dogs and find them loving families. So far I have saved 127 dogs from euthanasia. That’s a labor of love.

About: I started dog walking and pet sitting at 18 as a way to pay rent during COVID. Like anyone learning on the job, I made some mistakes in the beginning, but over the past 6 years, I’ve made a complete 180 — gaining valuable knowledge and refining my skills to care for animals the right way. Now at 24 and working toward becoming a veterinarian, this has grown from a job into a true passion. I combine experience, education, and genuine love for animals to provide the best care possible for your furry friends. My schedule varies weekly, so I update my calendar regularly to ensure you can easily book dog walking and sitting services whenever you need it. When walking dogs, I always bring a water dispenser and doggy bags, so you don’t have to worry about a thing. For dog boarding, your dog will feel right at home! Dogs are welcome on the furniture unless you prefer otherwise, following your training guidelines. I provide potty breaks every 2–4 hours and extra walks for energetic pups to burn off energy. Bedtime is at 8 PM, with the last walk of the day to help your dog settle in comfortably.

“Tori has been a God send for us! She was able to help us out over the Thanksgiving holiday, which was amazing. She is a great communicator, prompt, and she handled out two labs with love and care. She didn’t mind that our 3.5 year old has not learned to stop jumping up on people when he is excited. She was loving and went if her to help us, even with the morning feeding. We will call on Tori again!!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and started dog sitting for friends, neighbors, and family when I was 12. Over the years I’ve cared for many different breeds, sizes, and personalities, which has helped me learn how to quickly make dogs feel comfortable and secure. I’m especially passionate about dog psychology and training, so I pay close attention to body language, routines, and what helps each dog feel calm and confident. I always aim to create a positive, low-stress environment and adapt to each dog’s individual needs—whether that means playtime, exercise, or a more relaxed pace. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every dog with patience, care, and attention like they’re my own. My goal is always for both you and your dog to feel completely comfortable while you’re away. 🐾 Because pet sitting is my full-time job, I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate my time and attention fully to pet care. This allows me to be available throughout the day for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship.

Whether your pet needs early morning care, midday check-ins, evening walks, or overnight attention, I can easily accommodate their schedule and give them plenty of supervision and interaction during the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is always creating a calm, safe, and familiar environment for them. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, routines, medications, and house rules so your pet’s normal schedule stays consistent.

I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care I would expect for my own, and I’m always happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. 🐾

About: I’ve taken care of pets of every kind since I was 12. Over the years, I’ve dog sat for neighbors, friends, and family members, caring for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I also volunteer at an animal shelter, where I’ve gained experience working with animals that may be shy, energetic, or need extra patience and attention.

I'm sure to make certain your fur babies have plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh water, and a safe environment at all times. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs, since some animals love lots of activity while others need a calmer and quieter approach. Safety is very important to me, so I am careful during walks, outdoor time, feeding, and interactions with other animals. I also make sure owners receive updates and photos so they can feel reassured while they’re away. My goal is always to create a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment where pets feel happy and cared for.

“I couldn't be happier with the care and love Lacinda shared with my Mel. I'm glad I found Lacinda on Rover. All the photos and videos she shared daily help us spend our holiday in peace, knowing that my Poppy was cared for and happy. I'm sure Mel will miss the time she spent playing with her friends. We'll be back soon for sure.”

“Gina and her family were amazing and taking excellent care of Bailey for almost 3 days. Bailey was happy, and excited and had much cuddle time during his stay. I love it so much when Gina lets him stay on her couch with her and her dog throughout the day. And Gina sent me updates on Bailey's activities very frequently. We will be back to Gina for Bailey's boarding in the future!”

“Ryan, Lisa, and the family were great. Super easy to work with and the 1st time our dog has eaten all his food while being boarded. Very happy and will definitely use again.”

“Katherine was absolutely amazing. This was our first time leaving our precious boy with anyone for a trip. So, this was our first time using Rover, also. After, much research, we felt Katherine would be a great fit. Thank God, we were right. She was super responsive from the very beginning. She kept us comfortable and reassured that our boy was doing well by sending several updates and pictures. We will definitely use Katherine for future trips! Highly recommend.”

“Amazing fur baby care provider!!! Michael initiated communication with me as this was Jenifers first time with him. Jenifers came home and jumped in her bed, slept for hours which is a sign that she played and stayed busy all week. I’ve definitely found my caretaker.”

“Elena watch my girl for a weekend. She was great! She sent me updates throughout the weekend, and was great to Communicate with. Was so nice to have peace of mind knowing my furbaby was safe and was being cared for really well. Will def book with her again!”


“Michele did a great job taking care of our dog! She was also very quick in responding to any questions even before the actual vacay. It sounded like our dog had a great time with Michele and her dogs and they all got along very well!”
“Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Bella. The care you gave her, the attention to detail and updates relieved my mind when I had to leave town on short notice.”

“Aiden was wonderful! He took good care of my pup and I was really happy my dog had little friends to play with- Aiden has 2 sweet little pups of his own. I was very happy with Aiden and plan on booking with him in the future. Highly recommend! :)”

“I cannot say enough good things about Sonia and Luis. They were lifesavers when I got called into work and had nobody to watch my fur babies. I also have insane work hours and they were so accomodating, it was amazing! They also sent a ton of photos and videos throughout the day to show your baby is having a great time and being well taken care of. I trust them 100% with my babies for any future needs. I highly recommend them!”

“Schutz had the best time visiting his pup friends while boarding with Kristen and Jeff! We felt so blessed to get such sweet updates while we were away. Kristen and Jeff are hands down the best dog sitters!”

“Elizabeth was able to watch our dog last minute when alternative plans fell through. She sent us pictures and updates, which helped to ease our anxiety of leaving our sweet boy.”

“Kristina and her husband were wonderful to work with and they took amazing care of Arthur. Easy drop of and pick up. Clear communications and no confusion. Great updates throughout his stay. He was loved and treated as one of their own dogs. And it showed. I will definitely be using this family again for my boardings in the future.”
