I highly recommend Shawna and will be a repeat customer when needed!”

I will definitely use her over and over again as the occasions arise.”

“It isn’t my first time choosing Delaney to take care of my doggo, I actually ONLY use her. She is the BEST, every time we bring Kobe home he is a whole different dog in the best way possible. She always makes sure he’s exercised and taken care of which makes me very relieved. And we even notice that some of his behavior is getting better, his walks, he knows how to fetch now, it’s unbelievable! If you’re anxious about leaving your baby, Delaney will 100% ease all of those worries. 😊”

About: I currently have a Masters degree and work from home full time. I am finishing up another Bachelors degree in Animal Science Pre Vet. I have raised four dogs from puppies over the last 15 years. My first two passed from cancer. I currently have two fur babies that are my everything. I have many years of experience in handling and caring for major medical issues with dogs and cats. I work remotely from home so my schedule is extremely flexible. I can accommodate others schedules pretty easily. My two dogs are with me all day, every day.

About: I have cared for dogs for many years and have been a dog lover all of my life. I have three animals ( 2 cats and a dog) who are very loving and caring. If this so happens to be a problem for an owner I have the ability to move my animals in order to care for the owner's dog/dogs. I would walk them everyday because I understand the importance of having daily exercise. Along with this, dog owners will see how happy their dog will be after spending hours with me. There will be plenty of opportunities to have fun with toys and special treats would be in store for those who are well-behaved. I hope that dog owner's will allow me to love their pets just as much as they do. I usually work only four hours a day Monday-Friday which gives me plenty of flexibility to help you with any doggy needs like walks, daycare, etc. I don’t usually go out of town for holidays so I am available during those times. I have an apartment which has a dog park allowing them to roam freely. Also, I live in walking distant to several parks which is always a plus for any dog. In addition, I am a baker who does make organic dog treats for each time the dog is with me. This is dependent on if the owner allows this.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for years! I grew up with a black lab in my home, and have been taking care of other’s fur babies since I was 13. I have a very accessible home that has a huge dog park and lots of room to play. I am currently a college student who’s taking online courses. I am very flexible depending on your pet care needs, typically spending my day working on school. I work part time, sometimes during nights, but can work shifts depending on my schedule. My home is pet accessible, with a large living space and my bedroom being on the second floor. We have a large dog park, a lot of outdoor yardage, and my home is in a gated community. I have no roommates so I can limit the amount of people your fur baby would be around if need be!
About: I can't really think of a time I didn't have a dog, I've learned how to potty train puppies since I was little. Love dogs of all shapes and sizes. Know how to bowl and crate train, as well as all basic commands and care. We have a great shaded and fenced back yard with fresh water and a cool house with dog beds and crates. I've had lots of challenging dogs, and lots of sweet hearts. The two I have now are very good with other dogs, and I have two well behaved kids 2-4 that can be kept separate from the dogs if needed, as we have crates and a yard and multiple rooms (as well as experience in that). Recently got laid off from my blue collar job, so I have lots of free time on my hands rn. I usually let the dogs out as needed throughout the day as they want, or as the heat allows. I have a fenced backyard, and a secure home. Multiple dog crates and multiple spare rooms to separate/secure if needed. Plenty of fresh water and your food of choice only. Have basic care and medical knowledge for dogs, cats, and most pets.
About: I have taken care of dogs big and small for the past 7 years. I have also grown up around dogs and have been properly trained to care for the needs of different dogs. I work a hybrid scheduled job Monday through Friday from 8-4 so I have a flexible remote schedule. I am available for care on Mondays aftr 4:00PM, Tuesdays and Wednesdays all day, Thursdays and Fridays after 4:00PM. That includes feedings and walking as well. I do get an hour lunch break each day to leave work. During the weekends I am available all day to stay and watch dogs. I am very attentive to details when it comes to the safety of your pet. “I believe that one of the most important qualities of a successful pet sitter is compassion. You need to genuinely care about animals in order to do this job well. I love spending time with pets because they are so loving and affectionate. Another quality is patience. Pets can be unpredictable at times, which means you need to stay calm when things don’t go as planned. Patience also helps me communicate effectively with owners.
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated and compassionate pet sitter with a lifelong love for animals. I grew up around large dogs, so I’m very comfortable handling big breeds, energetic personalities, and strong walkers. From playful puppies to calm seniors, I understand that every pet has unique needs and deserves individualized care. I’m currently studying veterinary medicine, which gives me a strong foundation in animal behavior, health, and safety. I’m experienced with administering basic medications, recognizing signs of stress or illness, and providing calm, confident care in all situations. Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority. I believe pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs exercise, enrichment, medication, or just extra love and reassurance while you’re away, I’m happy to provide a safe, nurturing environment you can trust. I am an army veteran, a wife, a student and a mother. I own a small business therefore I have a lot of free time available as I al able to make my own schedule. Pets are treated like my own at home. (If you allow it) they are free to roam the home, they are allowed on furniture as well. They have a fully fenced backyard to run and play in. I have crates as well if you prefer for them to be caged. At your home I will follow and respect any of your routines to make sure both you and your pet have a pleasant experience. I will treat your home with respect just as if it were my own. I will tidy up as needed.
About: I have 6 years of hands-on experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, and pups with special needs. For many years, I fostered dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, giving me a great understanding of doggy behavior and care. In my free time, I volunteer at local rescues, continuing my love for helping animals feel safe, cared for, and happy. I currently work from home, and have a dog of my own that I take on multiple walks a day, and usually to the dog park once a day! My entire day is scheduled around the needs of the dogs I’m watching, as well as my own. I make every pet’s care and comfort my number one priority. Whether in my home or yours, I provide a calm environment, follow all care instructions, and give all of the love, exercise, and attention I can give. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel secure and happy while you’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of lots of different animals my whole life. I grew up on a farm with lots of animals and have used rover with my parents for the last couple years. I am now doing so on my own. I’m currently working part time and taking online classes while my boyfriend is looking for a job. We have a lot of time at home to spend caring and loving on our pets. I have a fenced yard as well as plenty of space for big and energetic dogs. I have personal experience in providing oral medication for my own dog everyday.

About: I have years of experience with in-home as well as drop-in pet sitting. I am reliable and dependable so you can be worry free when leaving for furry friends.

About: Available for initial meet up - to ensure a good match. I've had many pets throughout my life. Dogs, cats, lizards, birds, frogs, rabbits, an injured horned owl, raccoons, and fish! I currently share my apartment with one special cat - a rescue cat named Mogwai. I've had both inside and outside dogs. I have trained several of my dogs (small breeds) so I have a fair amount of knowledge. I'm a 36 year old working from home as a retirement financial investment manager during the day. I have a lot of flexibility to be able to also take care of your pet! I think Rover is a great way to meet some cool pups and cats and help people with the many responsibilities of pet ownership. I look forward to meeting you and your pet/pets! Pet care fits easily into my routine since I work from home. I have ample flexibility to care for your fur baby. I’m an active person who like to talk walks and be outside while also loving a good pet cuddle. I ensure it is a good match between me and the animal. Generally speaking, let’s usually like me. I’d give them plenty of attention and love while also ensuring their basic needs like food, water, relief and exercise are met.
About: I grew up training and showing dogs! I've also been a trusted volunteer dog walker/foster parent for local humane societies in the past, taking care of dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and ages! My family frequently fostered litters of puppies as young as 6 weeks. I also have plenty of experience with seniors and the specific health problems that come with that, after loving my cocker spaniels right up to the end. Life doesn't allow me to have a dog of my own at the moment, so I'll jump on any chance for some pupper love! I daylight as a professional wildlife biologist, but I am currently between jobs and so have all the time in the world to give your four-legged companions! My schedule is wide open. Safety is, of course, the highest priority, and reading animal body language is the key to maintaining a safe and enjoyable environment for your pet and avoiding stressful situations. This is a skill I feel very confident with after so many years of varied pet care. Second to safety is fun! Whether that looks like a brisk walk, a casual stroll, a laser pointer, a game of fetch, or just getting some relaxed quality time in is entirely up to your pet. Regardless, I'm happy to fulfill their needs.
About: I have a dog of my own and my sister has a cat. I've taken care of pets for family and friends. Both staying in house and dropping in for feeding and potty breaks. I firmly believe pets are members of the family, a friend and a companion not just an animal. I have very flexible hours. I will be returning to college in the fall but i will continue accepting bookings. Im typically available morning to late at night. For Drop-in visits or house sitting that require early morning care I am able to work it with my schedule with no issue. For drop-in visits I'll check in minimum 3 times daily for feeding, potty breaks, and short playtimes. For house sitting i am happy to stay overnight. In the event I need to leave for any reason, I'm happy to take your fluffy loved one on a car ride with me if acceptable and only if i am not getting out of the car.
About: I have absolutely adored animals of all kinds since I was young. I strive for pet sitting and care to be more than a passion but a career path. I’m more than willing to dedicate my time into making what can be a stressful time for both owners and pets alike enjoyable and rewarding! I have experience with furry friends who take time with new people, and with our over joyful and excited friends! Having the patience, time, energy and dedication needed for building a relationship with your pet thats lasting! I have cared for all sizes and personalities of furry pets for the past 15 years for many neighbors, family members, and friends growing up! It has remained my favorite job and past time for as long as I can remember, as it allows for me to be surrounded by a community of wonderful people and loving animals. Being a stay at home mom has allowed me to work with a flexible schedule. I’m able to provide last minute scheduling and holiday scheduling for pet owners! With minimal adjustments to hours and available days! I have a large fenced in yard for my two dogs, and have spent years learning how to play and interact with them in our space together! Even providing them with a separate space to cool off and relax away from the chaos of children, making sure they’re never to overwhelmed! Having pets has taught me some wonderful games such as tug of war, fetch, and keep away (a house favorite). I’ve learned with time that “animal lead play” is a wonderful way to get any fur baby to interact on a level they’re comfortable with. Offering opportunities for bonds and trust to form between us!
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for friends and family for many years. I have helped watch dogs for my friends’ business around the holidays and busy seasons, as well. I have a large dog and a cat of my own, and I have had pets since I was a kid. I love dogs and cats, and I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to check in whenever needed. I am currently working from home, so my schedule is very flexible, allowing me to check on your pets whenever needed. My weekends are typically free, as well, which could allow for an occasional overnight visit. I can drop in to feed your pets, let them out, give them love, and walk them if needed. Occasionally, I may be available for overnight visits for older or more anxious pets.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets of all personalities and needs. In addition to household pets, I’ve also raised cattle and goats through FFA, which has given me a strong foundation in responsibility, patience, and working with animals that require daily care and attention. This experience has taught me how to stay consistent, follow instructions closely, and notice small changes in animal behavior or health. What sets me apart is that I don’t just “watch” animals, I genuinely care for them and understand how to handle both calm and more challenging situations. Whether it’s feeding, cleaning, walking, or just spending time with them, I make sure every animal feels safe, comfortable, and cared for like they’re my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine since I’ve grown up around animals my whole life. I’m used to helping with feeding, cleaning, and general care for pets at home, and I also make time for walking, playing, and checking in on their needs regularly. I attend school from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., and I sometimes have a few responsibilities after school, but I’m pretty flexible and good at managing my time. Through FFA, I previously raised cattle and goats, which taught me responsibility, consistency, and how important it is to stick to a care routine and pay attention to animals’ needs. School will be ending soon, so I will be even more available and flexible during the summer, which will allow me to take on more pet sitting opportunities and give pets more consistent care and attention. In my client’s home, I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while their owner is away. I make sure to follow all instructions for feeding, fresh water, walks, litter box cleaning, and any medications if needed. I also spend time with the pets to give them attention, playtime, and companionship based on their personality and comfort level. I always make sure to keep their space clean, safe, and respected, and I check in on them consistently so they feel cared for and not alone. My goal is to treat every pet like my own and keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible.
About: I love animals and I would love to make yours feel loved and safe when you can’t be there yourself. You will not be disappointed! I can accommodate your schedule! Long term or short term, I can come to them while you are away. I can help ease your worries! I will stand in for you while you are away and do things your way! Trust me with your pets while you can’t be there
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and take care of my own dog who needs medication, so I’m used to sticking to routines and paying attention to the little things. I’ve also pet sat for friends before, so I’m comfortable with different dogs and their personalities. I always make sure they get walks, playtime, and feel cared for like they’re my own. I’m pretty flexible with my schedule, especially during mornings, afternoons, and evenings, so I can usually make time to stop by or stay with pets when needed. At a client’s home, I make sure to stick closely to your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and not stressed while you’re away. I follow all instructions exactly like feeding times, walks, playtime, and any medication schedules.I also spend time actually being with them, not just checking in, so they get attention and don’t feel lonely. I keep things clean and respect your space, making sure everything is left just how you had it. Most importantly, I try to make your pet feel safe, relaxed, and cared for in their own home.
About: I've owned many different pets including dogs, cats, rodents, rabbits, and ferrets over the past 14 years - young and older pets alike! I am a licensed veterinary technician here in Texas (I was previously licensed in Nevada before moving to the Lubbock area) and as such, I am able to provide services such as medicating furbabies that need medications and providing transport to the veterinarian if necessary (either my place of employment or your own preferred clinic). Some of my own pets are on medication, so making sure your furbaby gets any medication they need will be no problem at all! Some of my pets also have special dietary needs, so you can have complete confidence that if your pet needs the same, all needs will be met. I work full-time during the week at a fairly busy veterinary hospital. As far as drop-in visits go, I am able to make morning and evening visits any day, and midday visits on a case-by-case basis. Drop-ins will be performed at the time requested UNLESS they fall in a time range where I will be working. In those cases, visits will be either early in the morning and/or in the evening after work. Daily pet care is a staple in my household since I have my own pets, many of which require medical care including special diets and medications. Any care requested by clients will be performed to the best of my ability. Whether it be simple feeding instructions or something more in-depth, rest assured that your pet's care is in very capable hands.
About: Growing up with dogs—from my childhood Yellow Lab, Chili, to my German Shepherd, Jaylee—instilled in me a lifelong love and deep respect for pets. I’ve been dog sitting for family and friends for years, handling everything from daily walks to overnight care. As a college student, caring for dogs isn't just a side job for me; it’s something I truly enjoy. I take pride in providing a safe, attentive, and fun environment where your pup feels right at home. As a biochemistry major with a double minor in math and biology, I’m used to staying organized and focused. I intentionally manage my workload so I never take on pet care unless I can give your dog the full time and attention they deserve. My busiest day is Thursday during my lab, but because most of my coursework is online, I’m home study-buddy style with your pets during the week. Plus, I keep my Saturdays completely free for fun trips to the park or Starbucks pup cup runs! When caring for your pet in your home, trust and safety are my top priorities. I treat every home with respect and ensure your pet is kept supervised and out of harm’s way by keeping all hazardous items completely out of reach. I also believe that clear communication brings peace of mind, so I send frequent updates and photos throughout the visit to keep you connected with your pet every step of the way!
About: What sets me apart is that I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable and cared for. I’m attentive to details, follow instructions carefully, and make sure pets get plenty of love, exercise, and attention while you’re away. I’m also comfortable caring for puppies who need extra patience and consistency, as well as senior pets who may require a slower pace, medication, or additional care. My goal is to treat every pet like they’re part of my own family, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time with animals. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping pets company, I’m able to give them the attention and care they deserve. I make it a priority to follow each pet’s routine so they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away. I love to spend time with dogs and cats just playing with them or even cuddling. I have a big backyard in my house with a pool so I love to run around with my dog there

About: Hello I’m Ashton! I grew up in Central Texas and throughout my life I have had several pups all the way from a Great Dane named Samson to a Miniature Schnauzer named Roxi.

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kieryn! She was so incredibly sweet and attentive to my dog-child and took such great care of her.

I will definitely use her over and over again as the occasions arise.”
About: I am reliable and routine based. I will ensure the babies are fed,walked,bathed and receive the most love while in my care. Communication is very important to me and memories so I ensure that you will get FaceTime calls with the babies along with photos and videos and even some arts and crafts! I currently work from home so they furr babies will not be left alone. I have an SUV so car rides will be included if owner approved. I live in a two story loft apartment. It is Square Apartments ; so there is a beautiful walking trail on the complex and I also have a play area for the dogs inside of my home.

About: I’ve loved dogs since I was a little girl. I’ve had the joy of caring for my own dogs, a big pup for 9 years and a little pup for 5 years and they’ve taught me so much about love, patience, responsibility, and companionship. I truly enjoy spending time with dogs, whether it’s playing fetch, going on walks, cuddling, or simply keeping them company. Caring for dogs has also taught me what it means to be a mother to be patient, attentive, and always make sure they feel safe and loved.
