“We would absolutely book with Olivia again! She took such great care of our mini long haired dachshund, was very friendly and prompt with communication, and was great about sending updates and pictures of our pup. Definitely highly recommend!”
“Charlie had a wonderful time with Clarice. She took her for walks cuddled with her and even let her sleep in the bed which she is accustomed to. We wouldn't hesitate to have Charlie spend time with her again.”
About: I have been around dogs and cats since I was young. In high school I moved to a ranch and helped raise animals from horses to peacocks. Most recently, I have experience in healthcare and am comfortable with administering medications to your furry family members. My family moved to San Marcos and ready to open our home to your family. We do have a one year old girl and a baby on the way. So I ask to use your best judgement if your pet will be a good fit with us. My schedule is wide open at the moment, but can change quickly with a little one at home. I will be communicative of when I am not available and work to accommodate everyone. Our home has a good sized fenced yard. We also love to go on walks. If your pet has any favorite toys I would be happy to play until their heart is content.
“Iuliia watched my two mini dachshunds and they had a great time. She took great care of them, sent lots of pictures and I will definitely leave them with her the next time I’m out of town.”
“We can’t recommend Mags enough! This was our third stay with her, and every single experience has been wonderful. She goes above and beyond to make sure our girls are happy, comfortable, and well cared for, and it’s such a relief knowing they’re in such loving hands while we’re away.”
“Donna was great and I felt very comfortable leaving Charlie w her. She was in contract w us w pictures and updates. Charlie has no anxiety and seemed very happy while in Donna’s Care . Thank you Donna, hope to have you again. Lisa Laubach”
“My dog has stayed with Anthony three times now and I cannot recommend him enough! He’s flexible, great with communication, and his house is set up perfect for dogs! My dog can be anxious but he’s obviously comfortable with Anthony and excited when I drop him off for repeat visits!”
“Crystal and her family took great care of our dog over the holidays. Her dog is friendly, and her backyard has a nice tall fence and plenty of room to run around. We appreciated Crystal's responsiveness and the cute pictures she took of our dogs playing together. Our dog seemed happy, and we would book with Crystal again.”
“My fiancé and I had to leave for a few days to Houston for her niece’s baptism. Lisa watched our dog, Scout, for us and she did an amazing job. Her dog and Scout got along very well. She has a nice/big backyard that he was able to play in! She made sure to send us updates/photos everyday while we were away, which was so thoughtful and made us feel good knowing he was in good hands. We will definitely be calling Lisa again for sitting!”
“Our second time taking our dog to Lauren, she was available on short notice and is great at sending updates and pictures. Will be continuing to take our dog back to her!”
“Stephanie was wonderful! She kept us updated about Freya, played with her constantly & sent us many photos & videos, we felt really at peace of mind while traveling, also very knowledgeable & professional! Definitely recommend!”
“A million stars. Brigitte and Wrigley ( her dog) are the sweetest they welcomed Cooper In and made him family while we were put of town. She sent lots of pictures and updates and was super accommodating to our busy schedule for pick up and drop off time. I know who will be pur first call when we need someone to watch Cooper again!!”
“Angela made sure to update us daily with photos and texts. She truly made our dog feel at home and then some! We will definitely rebook with her for our next trip.”
“Anne & Sébastien are absolutely wonderful! They really keep me informed by sending updates and pictures throughout the day. I never have to worry about my little fur baby when he’s in their care!!❤️”
“This was our first time booking with rover and we were for sure nervous - but Edwin was FANTASTIC! I’m such a nervous dog mom and our pup, Cigar, got a little sick just before we left town. So we were extra worried we wouldn’t be able to find a place for her to stay for 10 days on such short notice. But after leaving Cig with Edwin and receiving updates about her settling in right away, we instantly felt like she was in good hands. He was thorough with her meds, asked questions when needed, and sent the perfect amount of updates. We know Cigar was being well loved and soaking up the attention and yard space! We were even a bit worried she would like his home more and not want to come back with us after her stay lol! Absolutely will be keeping Edwin in mind for our next trip.”

“Danielle is truly a cat whisperer. Somehow, she coaxed my shy kitten out to play on her very first visit! She spent so much time and attention with her, and the wonderful photos she sent gave me great peace of mind while I was away. It's such a relief to have a trusted partner helping care for my energetic little kitten. I am deeply grateful to have found someone so responsible, dedicated, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring. I couldn't recommend Danielle more highly.”

“No doubt about it, I’d pick Kaitlyn to catsit again in a heartbeat. I am so beyond thankful for all of Kaitlyn’s patience, kindness, warmth, and compassion. She bonded with both our cats right off the bat. Our shy male cat warmed up to her very quickly. The anxious girl kitty took a bit longer to come around, but Kaitlyn made sure to go at the pace of the kitty in question. She was able to medicate our male cat, and made sure they both felt loved and cared for while we were away for an extended period of time. She communicated as soon as anything came up, and was very flexible! It was such a relief knowing our cats were in such thoughtful & capable hands for the holidays. My girlfriend and I could not recommend her more highly! 🩵”

About: I fostered my baby girl, Alani, after she fell out of a moving car as a kitten, and was picked up by the head Vet and a clinic I was working at in highschool.

Along with caring for her daily, I care for the kitties at my current pet boarding job where I’m in charge of their feeding, watering, cleaning, and medicating. As well as boarding care, I also have experience bathing, grooming, and trimming cats nails, as part of my day as a full time groomer. Whatever your kitty needs, I can provide!

“Gina did an initial meet and greet to make sure Prince would be comfortable in her home. Gina did a wonderful job taking care of my maltipoo dog Prince. She fed him, made sure he had plenty of water and played with him. She also gave me an update during his visit. She is conveniently located to where I needed to be for an event. Thank you, Gina.”
“Grace and her husband were excellent! This is the first time my little 16 1/2 year old Dash has ever stayed in a home without either of his 2 mommas with him, and it looks like he felt at home with them. Grace was really good about keeping me updated and sending pictures throughout the day. I was never worried about him being safe and happy at all. Thanks to you, Grace, we were able to get through a very difficult day (my nephew's funeral service) without the added stress of having to worry about my Dash. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.”
“Amelia was an amazing sitter for my Kevin. She sent me photos and updates throughout the day. She was also flexible with my schedule and great about communication. I will definitely be using Amelia in the future!!”

About: I’m a dependable and caring pet sitter with a lifelong love for animals. I’ve been around animals since I was 5 years old, growing up caring for ranch animals, dogs, cats, and even ferrets. I understand that every animal has its own personality and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I live a very active lifestyle. I’m an avid runner and extremely into fitness, so staying consistent, disciplined, and energetic is already a huge part of who I am. Taking care of animals naturally goes hand in hand with that lifestyle because I genuinely enjoy being outdoors, going on walks, staying active, and keeping pets engaged and happy. I take animal safety and comfort very seriously both inside and outside of my home. I have a fully fenced patio area that provides pets with a secure outdoor space for fresh air, playtime, and exercise while staying safe at all times. I also have two dogs of my own who are very friendly, socialized, and used to being around other animals. However, I understand that every pet has different comfort levels and needs, so my dogs can always be safely crated or separated if necessary to ensure visiting pets feel comfortable and stress-free.

“Super caring and attentive pet sitter. I took my puppy to her three days a week so I could go to work. I could not stand thinking about leaving him at home alone when he was only eight weeks old. Elisa took him outside every couple of hours. She made sure he was loved and comfortable and did not have to cry it out. He is now 10 weeks old and strong enough to be on his own at home when I go to work but my doggie became good friends with her doggy and enjoys playing with other little doggies that come in for doggy daycare. So I’m going to continue bringing him to Elisa for as long as I possibly can. He lights up and gets so excited to see her when I drop him off. I know he is in good hands”

About: My life has been defined by a deep connection to animals, from growing up in a multi-pet household of dogs and cats to exploring the intricate world of aquarium keeping. This lifelong passion eventually evolved into a professional focus; I am currently a graduate student in Psychology and am personally training my own service dog, Disco. My experience goes beyond basic pet sitting; I understand canine behavior, the importance of positive reinforcement, and the necessity of a calm, structured environment. Whether I’m managing a high-energy dog, a senior pet with a strict medication schedule, or even a delicate aquatic setup, I bring a researcher's attention to detail and a lifelong lover's heart to every home. I’ve spent years caring for the pets of friends and family, and I look forward to providing that same expert, reliable care for your companions. Pet care is the foundation of my daily life. As a service dog handler, I live and breathe animal behavior and routine. My day is built around structured walks, training reinforcement, and clear communication. While I balance my graduate studies and work, my school breaks are dedicated to providing high-quality, attentive care for your pets. Because I am used to the responsibility of a working dog, I bring that same level of discipline and reliability to your pet’s schedule, ensuring they feel secure and cared for in a low-stress, organized environment. I provide a calm, supervised environment where your pet’s safety is the top priority. I am accompanied by my service dog, Disco, who is expertly trained to be neutral and respectful of other animals' space. This often provides a wonderful, stabilizing social environment for the pets I watch. I am meticulous about feeding and exercise schedules, and I am particularly mindful of safety—for example, avoiding noon-day heat to protect paws and prevent overheating. Whether we are in my home or yours, I maintain a 'safety-first' mentality, ensuring all environments are secure and all interactions are positive.
About: Throughout high school, I would take care of my neighbors dogs, my brothers family dogs, and many dogs owned by friends of the family. This would include walks, feeding, baths if needed, etc. I now have my own 6 month old puppy and a 15 year old senior cat who I have been working with! It fits into my pet care routine because I have had my own pets throughout the last few years. So, I have been able to start figuring out a routine both daily and weekly I always walk them daily, make sure they are well fed, and always give them lots of love and attention throughout the day when I see them.

“Andrew has been amazing! He’s so personable and reliable, and I have zero worries when he’s walking my dog. I’m definitely a very anxious dog mom, especially since my dog is 75 pounds and can pull hard on the leash, but Andrew is incredibly patient and handles him with no problem at all. Even when my dog decides to be a little stubborn and a jerk, Andrew is always calm, kind, and attentive. He truly puts me at ease and makes sure my dog is well taken care of. He’s also very flexible and accommodating, which I really appreciate. I’m so grateful to have found him!”

“Charlie had a wonderful time with Clarice. She took her for walks cuddled with her and even let her sleep in the bed which she is accustomed to. We wouldn't hesitate to have Charlie spend time with her again.”
About: I have been around dogs and cats since I was young. In high school I moved to a ranch and helped raise animals from horses to peacocks. Most recently, I have experience in healthcare and am comfortable with administering medications to your furry family members. My family moved to San Marcos and ready to open our home to your family. We do have a one year old girl and a baby on the way. So I ask to use your best judgement if your pet will be a good fit with us. My schedule is wide open at the moment, but can change quickly with a little one at home. I will be communicative of when I am not available and work to accommodate everyone. Our home has a good sized fenced yard. We also love to go on walks. If your pet has any favorite toys I would be happy to play until their heart is content.
“Iuliia watched my two mini dachshunds and they had a great time. She took great care of them, sent lots of pictures and I will definitely leave them with her the next time I’m out of town.”
“We can’t recommend Mags enough! This was our third stay with her, and every single experience has been wonderful. She goes above and beyond to make sure our girls are happy, comfortable, and well cared for, and it’s such a relief knowing they’re in such loving hands while we’re away.”
“My dog has stayed with Anthony three times now and I cannot recommend him enough! He’s flexible, great with communication, and his house is set up perfect for dogs! My dog can be anxious but he’s obviously comfortable with Anthony and excited when I drop him off for repeat visits!”
“Crystal and her family took great care of our dog over the holidays. Her dog is friendly, and her backyard has a nice tall fence and plenty of room to run around. We appreciated Crystal's responsiveness and the cute pictures she took of our dogs playing together. Our dog seemed happy, and we would book with Crystal again.”
“My fiancé and I had to leave for a few days to Houston for her niece’s baptism. Lisa watched our dog, Scout, for us and she did an amazing job. Her dog and Scout got along very well. She has a nice/big backyard that he was able to play in! She made sure to send us updates/photos everyday while we were away, which was so thoughtful and made us feel good knowing he was in good hands. We will definitely be calling Lisa again for sitting!”
“Stephanie was wonderful! She kept us updated about Freya, played with her constantly & sent us many photos & videos, we felt really at peace of mind while traveling, also very knowledgeable & professional! Definitely recommend!”
“A million stars. Brigitte and Wrigley ( her dog) are the sweetest they welcomed Cooper In and made him family while we were put of town. She sent lots of pictures and updates and was super accommodating to our busy schedule for pick up and drop off time. I know who will be pur first call when we need someone to watch Cooper again!!”
“Angela made sure to update us daily with photos and texts. She truly made our dog feel at home and then some! We will definitely rebook with her for our next trip.”
“Anne & Sébastien are absolutely wonderful! They really keep me informed by sending updates and pictures throughout the day. I never have to worry about my little fur baby when he’s in their care!!❤️”
“This was our first time booking with rover and we were for sure nervous - but Edwin was FANTASTIC! I’m such a nervous dog mom and our pup, Cigar, got a little sick just before we left town. So we were extra worried we wouldn’t be able to find a place for her to stay for 10 days on such short notice. But after leaving Cig with Edwin and receiving updates about her settling in right away, we instantly felt like she was in good hands. He was thorough with her meds, asked questions when needed, and sent the perfect amount of updates. We know Cigar was being well loved and soaking up the attention and yard space! We were even a bit worried she would like his home more and not want to come back with us after her stay lol! Absolutely will be keeping Edwin in mind for our next trip.”
“Our boy Shadow has stayed with Wendy twice and she’s great! I love getting pictures of him throughout the day and love that he gets to socialize with her animals. Great communication throughout each stay. Highly recommend!”
“Brianna is fantastic. She went above and beyond to take care of Hobbes. She sent pictures and status updates regularly. I am so grateful for her loving care of Hobbes while I was away. I will certainly use her services again. Full send recommendation. Thanks”
“Yan is truly amazing! And so sweet!! Super communicative and sent lots of photos (and great videos showing him happily gobbling up his food) of our little guy! We felt so happy and was able to rest assured during our trip knowing that our pup was in caring and loving hands!”
“I’m so happy to have found Sophia for our boy Maverick. She is patient and so caring with our boy. She always provides updates about his stay! He has such a blast and gets along with her dogs. I have a peace of mind knowing we left him with someone that will care for him like we do. 💙 10/10 Recommend!!”
“We love-love-love working with Robyn and Desmond for boarding our Zadie. They are so easy to work with, clearly love the dogs in their care, and send updates that show how much fun Zadie is having at their house. Highly recommend!”
