Our dog had a great time at Kimberlee's house and got along with her other two dogs. She went above and beyond and relieved my anxiety about leaving my dog for the first time with a Rover sitter. We'll be sure to book with her again in the future!

Pam is by far THE BEST sitter we have ever had. She dedicates the majority of her time to the fur babies. She actually enjoys what she does, it shows in our fur babies behavior, they absolutely love her. She keep us informed on their day to day activity. Our minds are at ease when we travel knowing our 3 loves are getting the love and attention they are used to getting at home. Book her, you won’t be disappointed. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

It’s obvious why Jacob is a star sitter! This was the first time I left my dog with anyone other than family or close friends, so naturally, I was very nervous to leave him. Jacob was very thorough, communicative, and caring. My Doberman LOVED the attention he received from Jacob, his wife, and his two kiddos. Thank you so much, we’ll be back super soon!!

Very easy to deal with. He sent pictures and updates during the visit. Our puppy was returned happy, healthy, and clean (he gives all the dogs a bath if they are there on Friday). Would happily use his services again if we need to board our dog.

About: I've taken care of family dogs for ~12years, and have my own ~80lb gentle giant Pyrenees who has taught me alot about how a calm presence influences a dogs demeanor!! I will provide a safe, fun, playful space & treat your dog as my own!! My dog LOVES little kids, small dogs, and big dogs. She is a protector dog & will be gentle with the little ones & love to play rough w the big ones 🥰 Although my dog is spayed, I only accept uneuetered male dogs on a case by case basis (though I am sure they are sweet 🫶) I am free nearly every weekend!! I work Monday through Friday every week, and spend my evenings and weekends at home with my pup! Would love to have yours join us! I can provide separate spaces as needed, crate time, quiet time, or 1-one-1 play. Fenced in yard or a quiet space on the couch, we'll make it work!

Abigail is amazing! She took such great care of my dog and treated him as if he were her pet. She was very responsive and communicative, sharing photos and updates while I was away. She is so kind, and it’s no wonder my dog was sad to leave when I picked him up! I can’t say enough good things about Abigail, and how comfortable I felt knowing my pet was in great hands.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always been a natural part of my daily routine. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies who need lots of playtime, attention, and consistency, to senior dogs who require a little extra patience and care. I’ve had two senior dogs who needed medication administration, frequent bathroom breaks, transportation, and close monitoring to keep them comfortable and happy. I also currently help care for my miniature dachshund, Maxwell, who is completely blind, so I understand the importance of adapting to a dog’s individual needs and creating a safe, supportive environment. Whether your pet needs a long walk, a game of fetch, extra cuddles, a consistent feeding schedule, or simply someone to keep them company, I’m happy to provide the love, attention, and care they deserve. I know that every pet is different, and I take the time to get to know their personality and routine so they feel comfortable while you’re away. My goal is to treat every pet like family and give owners peace of mind knowing their furry friend is in caring and capable hands. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule. I recently relocated to spend time with my boyfriend while he serves in the Air Force, and after leaving my full-time job back home, I have plenty of availability throughout the day. This allows me to give pets my full attention rather than trying to fit them into an already busy schedule. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, feeding times, play sessions, or overnight care, I can easily adjust my day to meet your pet’s needs. I understand that life can get hectic, and my goal is to make things a little easier for pet owners by providing reliable, attentive care when they need it most. You can have peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and individualized care while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly neighborhood that is great for walks, and I have a fenced-in yard that allows dogs to safely spend time outdoors. My home is air-conditioned, which is especially important during the Texas summer months to ensure pets stay comfortable and cool. I also have reliable transportation, making it easy to accommodate pick-ups, drop-offs, or other pet-related needs if necessary. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and personalities, including my own pets as well as those of family, friends, neighbors, and members of my community. This experience has taught me that every pet is different and deserves individualized care. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, senior and slowing down, or requires a little extra patience and attention, I will take the time to learn their routine and make them feel safe and comfortable. My goal is to provide a calm, loving environment where your pet feels at home while giving you peace of mind knowing they are being cared for as if they were my own.

Heather was an excellent pet sitter for my two kitties. This was my first time having someone watch my cats for me, I was anxious and nervous from hearing about other’s pet sitting nightmares. All of that instantly went away on her first check in! Not only did she comply with their feeding tasks, she also stayed and gave them pets/lovings and made sure their litter box and automatic water/feeder was good. I enjoyed every single update and picture she attached to the check in. Upon arrival my kitties were happy and in good health as I left them and I couldn’t have been happier with Heather’s service. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Alexis did a great job taking care of Bear, I received photos and feedback from every visit and she cleaned up any debris around his area. I returned to a clean environment, it was kept as if I had been home and not left. Bear really enjoyed her visits, she cared for him as though he was her personal pet. If she is available, I would book her again for house visits for my Bear.

About: Leave your pets with someone that cares! Our family of four love all animals. I have had several animals in my family growing up. I have a strong understanding for pets and their behavior because of raising them when I was young. I will take them at any age and I am very flexible with the schedule. I have a medium size backyard and two parks to take walks right beside me. I will be your pet’s favorite sitter. I have a flexible job and kids that love to play with pets. If you are looking to have a sitter that loves pets, that would be me! I have a fenced yard and the ability to have pets sleep inside each night. I am home during the day and night time so your pet will remain safe.

I cannot praise Alyssa enough! There are no words to express my overwhelming gratitude for the level of care that Mia received. I was in CA and got a call from my fiancé that Mia was not eating and having frequent accidents. Alyssa brought Mia chicken, broth and her favorite treats to try and encourage her to eat ...thinking it was emotional due to my absence. But then she was getting worse and Alyssa took Mia to the vet and stayed on the phone with me until I could speak with the Vet staff because my fiancé could not leave work. She even made sure to be on call in case we needed her to pick up Mia if I couldn't get back to TX on time. Mia had emergency surgery and is doing great! Alyssa made sure that Mia and I had everything we needed during this scary situation. Thank you Alyssa!!!

About: I have sat pets and homes for almost 8 years now. I always make sure that the pets get any medication or exercise necessary while their loved ones are away. I am a school teacher, so from Monday-Friday I am not at home most of the day. As soon as I get off work I would be with the pets all the time and on the weekends as well. I do like to meet the pet(s) before the family wants to leave so the animal can trust me in a 1 on 1 setting.

Jordan is the BEST doggo sitter! We exchanged information via email, and she made (is still making) it happen for our sweet girl who would otherwise have a very long day in her crate. Jordan is quick to respond, takes her care-giving seriously, and treats our space with respect. I'd say everyone should hire her, but if they did, I would have to elbow our way back into her schedule.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We can’t say enough good things about Alexis! My husband works out of town, and since we’re brand new to the area, it can be hard to trust someone with our puppy. But Alexis immediately made us feel so comfortable and confident in our decision. She treated our dog with so much love and care, just like her own. We could tell he was happy, well looked after, and truly enjoyed his time with her. We’re so thankful for the peace of mind she gave us — highly recommend Alexis to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and caring sitter!

About: I've owned dogs my entire life - up to three at once. From puppies to their last moments 🫶🏻, I have experience with care at all stages of life. Currently have two labs (5 and 7, male and female) who are friendly with other dogs. I work from home and we have a fenced yard. I work full time from home and am here all day for their care/entertainment. We have a good sized fenced yard for play and lots of toys to play with. We have a large shaded grassy back yard as well as two large indoor kennels and two large soft travel kennels if your pup finds comfort in a kennel. Our five year old golden lab loves to play with everyone. Our seven year old black lab is laid back and chill. My dogs spend the day as my office buddies and prefer their kennels at night, but our visitors can roam free at night if not crate trained.

About: My rates reflect the level of care and experience I provide. I’ve worked in both an animal hospital and a boarding facility, and I have over 10 years of hands on experience with dogs of all ages. I’m trained to administer medications (including injections) and I’m currently studying to become a veterinary technician. Your dog isn’t staying in a kennel they’re getting personalized attention in a safe home environment, along with knowledgeable care you won’t find in standard boarding. I’m also able to provide nail trims and ear cleanings for a small additional charge. My goal is to make sure your furbaby feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away😊 Pet care blends naturally into my everyday life because I’m home all day with my baby. We spend most of our time in the living room or outside, so having dogs around just feels like adding more family to our routine. I’m able to give them plenty of attention, snuggles, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day. Since I’m always home, I can really focus on making sure each pup feels safe, loved, and comfortable, just like they would with their own family! In my home, pets have plenty of space to relax and play. I have a fully fenced yard and a friendly, playful Labrador who loves having company. I also have a cat who thinks he’s a dog himself and adapts to other animals very fast! I focus on creating a calm, welcoming environment where each pet feels like part of the family. Dogs get regular potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day. I keep routines consistent so they feel secure, and I always monitor interactions to make sure every pet is happy and comfortable.

About: I’ve grown up with exceptional dogs all my life. Small, medium, large, you name it I’ve fed it! All jokes aside, I am a reliable caretaker for your fur babies needs. Walking, cleaning, play time, feeding, or bathing is absolutely no problem! I am currently a stay-at home mom, which means I’ll have loads of time to relax, lounge, and play with your babies while you’re away on business or vacation! My family has 2 dogs: a black lab and a German Shepard mix. We use to have a cat, her name was Floof, and she was sweet yet feisty! We play in the backyard a lot and they enjoy meeting and playing with other dogs, big and small!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always been a natural part of my daily routine. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies who need lots of playtime, attention, and consistency, to senior dogs who require a little extra patience and care. I’ve had two senior dogs who needed medication administration, frequent bathroom breaks, transportation, and close monitoring to keep them comfortable and happy. I also currently help care for my miniature dachshund, Maxwell, who is completely blind, so I understand the importance of adapting to a dog’s individual needs and creating a safe, supportive environment. Whether your pet needs a long walk, a game of fetch, extra cuddles, a consistent feeding schedule, or simply someone to keep them company, I’m happy to provide the love, attention, and care they deserve. I know that every pet is different, and I take the time to get to know their personality and routine so they feel comfortable while you’re away. My goal is to treat every pet like family and give owners peace of mind knowing their furry friend is in caring and capable hands. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule. I recently relocated to spend time with my boyfriend while he serves in the Air Force, and after leaving my full-time job back home, I have plenty of availability throughout the day. This allows me to give pets my full attention rather than trying to fit them into an already busy schedule. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, feeding times, play sessions, or overnight care, I can easily adjust my day to meet your pet’s needs. I understand that life can get hectic, and my goal is to make things a little easier for pet owners by providing reliable, attentive care when they need it most. You can have peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and individualized care while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly neighborhood that is great for walks, and I have a fenced-in yard that allows dogs to safely spend time outdoors. My home is air-conditioned, which is especially important during the Texas summer months to ensure pets stay comfortable and cool. I also have reliable transportation, making it easy to accommodate pick-ups, drop-offs, or other pet-related needs if necessary. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and personalities, including my own pets as well as those of family, friends, neighbors, and members of my community. This experience has taught me that every pet is different and deserves individualized care. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, senior and slowing down, or requires a little extra patience and attention, I will take the time to learn their routine and make them feel safe and comfortable. My goal is to provide a calm, loving environment where your pet feels at home while giving you peace of mind knowing they are being cared for as if they were my own.

About: Around my hometown neighborhood I had many friends and family. This made it easy to book certain days and times to care for their animals. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I’ve also had the amazing opportunity to foster kittens for 12 years with Feline Network. When I schedule appointments with someone and their animal they’re a priority. Love is more than a word, it’s a connection you can’t deny. Animals everywhere deserve love just as much as people do. Your dog is important, that’s why I want you to feel your dog is safe, loved, and cared for properly. I’m here to put my time, love, and energy into your lovely dog. I’ve fostered kittens and cared for many animals since I was seven years old. I was fortunate enough to learn about keeping an animal healthy and safe. Through the years I learned giving dogs their medication(s) can either be easy or difficult, but if you really care you’ll be patient and think outside the box. I have also learned to vaccinate dogs, cats, and pigs. I was also a member of 4-H for three years, I learned hard work, commitment, and giving an animal the attention and care it needs. When I know I can give an animal love, why wouldn’t I do it. Currently I’m doing online schooling from home. I love to schedule dates and times, but I’m very flexible when needed. I’m available all weekdays and weekends. You can contact me those days at 8:30am through 8:00pm. If you need to reschedule don’t hesitate to ask. When I’m taking care of a dog in it’s needed environment I will assess their needs and wants. I will make sure said dog gets everything they need to be successful.

About: From an early age I have been surrounded by animals. I learned they will never let you down and they always have your back. Growing up my passion for such loving creatures has only grown stronger. Animals do not have a voice so we must stand up and be the voice for them as they comfort us in our times of need. I have been sitting for years as it is a passion of mine. I hope to continue my passion with you and your fur babies. I am flexible and willing to work with pets and their owners to find something suitable for both parties. Please feel free to ask me any questions you may have. I currently have an open and flexible schedule, but we do own two Greyhounds and a new kitten that adopted us. My husband does work overnight hours as a Paramedic so I would not be available to stay overnight while he is on shift. I am an open book so questions are welcome! I live close to several dog parks, we have a fenced in yard for potty breaks and play time. I also have the ability for daily walks (assuming it’s not too hot outside).

About: I've been caring for family and friends' dogs since I was 15. Currently, I help train future service dogs with canine companions. I also have two fur babies of my own whom I love. I'm currently working full-time at the Omaha Country Club as a pool service lead. My schedule changes from week to week, but I am available for most of the day during the week and all day on Sundays. I do not have a fenced yard, but I do have yard chains available. I currently crate my dogs when they are not at home; otherwise, they have free rein of the house. I want to keep overnight visits in the dogs' home, as I do not want to disrupt anyone's safe space.

About: I have extensive experience working with a wide range of animals, including wild, domestic, and farm species. My passion for animals runs deep, and I am genuinely dedicated to understanding their unique needs and providing them with the highest level of care. Whether it’s ensuring the well-being of pets, assisting with the rehabilitation of wild animals, or managing the health and safety of farm animals, I am committed to giving each one the attention and love they deserve. Caring for animals is not just a job for me; it’s a calling that I approach with great enthusiasm and responsibility. I love visiting other people’s pets and caring for them!

With clients though I make sure they give me a list of directions so I do not miss any specifics.

About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover and proud dog and cat mom to 2 dogs and 5 cats. They are truly my fur babies, so I completely understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for yours. I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs. I raised my youngest from a puppy and handled all of his training myself, so I’m comfortable reinforcing routines and training. My oldest dog takes medication and is a little slower these days, so I’m experienced with senior care and administering medications when needed. I do work short 4-hour shifts on some days. I am still available for overnight stays and house sitting, but during those bookings I would need to step away for up to 4 hours at a time for work. I will always return promptly and make sure your dog is let out, fed, walked, and given plenty of attention and love in between. Your pet’s comfort and care will always be a priority. If a booking is made at least two weeks in advance, I’m happy to request time off so I can be fully present and stay with your dog full-time, day and night. If you trust me with your babies, I promise to treat them like family. I have a full time work from home job so my schedule is very flexible. I can make myself available almost any time. Week days or weekends. I have leashes, harnesses, treats, dog poop bags. I can bring whatever you need to watch your babies. I will care for your baby as my own and follow any instructions you give.

About: I grew up with animals of all kinds, so I am no stranger to the amount of responsibility that it requires to take care of them. Your pets are in good hands with me. My services include drop-in care for feeding and playing as well as walks. I am good at getting out that extra energy they have built up from being stuck at home. I currently work full-time as a nurse on the weekends, so I’m free during the week for your pet care needs. I have open availability four days out of the week and can come multiple times per day if needed. I live in a dog friendly apartment community. I have a fenced yard and live near a dog park as well as a lot of walkable areas. I will abide by your instructions and preferences. Just let me know what is best for your pets.

About: I have personal experience caring for both dogs and cats. I helped care for a small family dog for about 3 years, assisting with feeding, daily care, and attention. I also independently cared for my own cat for several months, managing feeding, cleaning, and overall care. Pet care has been part of my daily routine. I would come home during lunch breaks to check on and care for my pet, and after work I handled feeding, cleaning, and attention. I’m also generally free on weekends for consistent pet care and supervision. I make sure pets are cared for in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment while following any instructions provided by the owner. I focus on keeping pets supervised, maintaining their routines, providing attention and care, and making sure they feel comfortable and secure at all times.

About: I was raised on a farm and have been working as a veterinary Technician for 10+ years. I have also shown dogs in obedience since I was 8 yrs old and was very successful in the show ring. I work at an animal hospital Monday through Friday. I would be taking care of your loved one before I go to work, during my lunch break and when I get off work, then before I go to bed. Since I work at a animal hospital I only get an hour lunch break and have room for only visit during my lunch break. Because of this I charge $15 for a drop in visit, $26 for morning and evening care, $36 for morning, lunch and evening care. Because I have my own animals to tend to as well, I charge $50 a night to stay at your house. I have shown and trained dogs in obedience and I’m not scared of a barking dog that is nervous because the owner is not home. I know how to safely approach a dog and gain it’s trust. I also know what to do if your dog goes off it’s food or gets to stressed because the owner is away. I offer quality service with experience in many different situations from being a vet tech at an animal hospital and working at an emergency clinic.

Pam is by far THE BEST sitter we have ever had. She dedicates the majority of her time to the fur babies. She actually enjoys what she does, it shows in our fur babies behavior, they absolutely love her. She keep us informed on their day to day activity. Our minds are at ease when we travel knowing our 3 loves are getting the love and attention they are used to getting at home. Book her, you won’t be disappointed. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

It’s obvious why Jacob is a star sitter! This was the first time I left my dog with anyone other than family or close friends, so naturally, I was very nervous to leave him. Jacob was very thorough, communicative, and caring. My Doberman LOVED the attention he received from Jacob, his wife, and his two kiddos. Thank you so much, we’ll be back super soon!!

He took such great care of my puppy. It was hard leaving him for the first time but I loved getting pictures of him while he was there. I’m so glad to have found a great dog sitter to care for my little Teddy.

So thankful we found Terra for our Rey! She is completely spoiled when she stays at Terra’s & that makes it so much easier to leave her when we have to.

Jeremy was amazing with my sweet Benji. He carved a space into his home and family where Benji fit right in! Jeremy kept me well updated and as a dog mom who has had to be away from her son the past few months, his updates illuminated my days. Thank you so much, Jeremy!!

About: I've taken care of family dogs for ~12years, and have my own ~80lb gentle giant Pyrenees who has taught me alot about how a calm presence influences a dogs demeanor!! I will provide a safe, fun, playful space & treat your dog as my own!! My dog LOVES little kids, small dogs, and big dogs. She is a protector dog & will be gentle with the little ones & love to play rough w the big ones 🥰 Although my dog is spayed, I only accept uneuetered male dogs on a case by case basis (though I am sure they are sweet 🫶) I am free nearly every weekend!! I work Monday through Friday every week, and spend my evenings and weekends at home with my pup! Would love to have yours join us! I can provide separate spaces as needed, crate time, quiet time, or 1-one-1 play. Fenced in yard or a quiet space on the couch, we'll make it work!

Abigail is amazing! She took such great care of my dog and treated him as if he were her pet. She was very responsive and communicative, sharing photos and updates while I was away. She is so kind, and it’s no wonder my dog was sad to leave when I picked him up! I can’t say enough good things about Abigail, and how comfortable I felt knowing my pet was in great hands.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always been a natural part of my daily routine. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies who need lots of playtime, attention, and consistency, to senior dogs who require a little extra patience and care. I’ve had two senior dogs who needed medication administration, frequent bathroom breaks, transportation, and close monitoring to keep them comfortable and happy. I also currently help care for my miniature dachshund, Maxwell, who is completely blind, so I understand the importance of adapting to a dog’s individual needs and creating a safe, supportive environment. Whether your pet needs a long walk, a game of fetch, extra cuddles, a consistent feeding schedule, or simply someone to keep them company, I’m happy to provide the love, attention, and care they deserve. I know that every pet is different, and I take the time to get to know their personality and routine so they feel comfortable while you’re away. My goal is to treat every pet like family and give owners peace of mind knowing their furry friend is in caring and capable hands. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule. I recently relocated to spend time with my boyfriend while he serves in the Air Force, and after leaving my full-time job back home, I have plenty of availability throughout the day. This allows me to give pets my full attention rather than trying to fit them into an already busy schedule. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, feeding times, play sessions, or overnight care, I can easily adjust my day to meet your pet’s needs. I understand that life can get hectic, and my goal is to make things a little easier for pet owners by providing reliable, attentive care when they need it most. You can have peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and individualized care while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly neighborhood that is great for walks, and I have a fenced-in yard that allows dogs to safely spend time outdoors. My home is air-conditioned, which is especially important during the Texas summer months to ensure pets stay comfortable and cool. I also have reliable transportation, making it easy to accommodate pick-ups, drop-offs, or other pet-related needs if necessary. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and personalities, including my own pets as well as those of family, friends, neighbors, and members of my community. This experience has taught me that every pet is different and deserves individualized care. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, senior and slowing down, or requires a little extra patience and attention, I will take the time to learn their routine and make them feel safe and comfortable. My goal is to provide a calm, loving environment where your pet feels at home while giving you peace of mind knowing they are being cared for as if they were my own.

About: We have had animals our entire life, my mother made us start being responsible for them at an early age. Around 7 or 8 years old. Whether it was dogs or cats, if we wanted them she said we had to take care of them. As I got older I started getting animals of my own. I absolutely love dogs though and I have been a breeder of malamutes. That means we've had lots of puppies around the house. Lots of potty training lots of outdoor training. I have had cats but not as often as dogs lol. I am not working at all right now so I have an open schedule for the most part. And to be honest with you I think that I probably should have reached out to Rover a long time ago . I do have two dogs of my own at home with me. I have an eight-year-old dog and a dog that's about to be 11 years old At my home I do have a fenced-in yard, and I can get additional dog food bowls if needed, I do not have any cats at this time.So I don't have a cat box here.

About: Hi my name is jenifer and I’ve been taking care of fur babies since I was 8. From family members to friends and ofc my own. Dog walking is an activity that brings me immense joy and fulfillment. The opportunity to spend time outdoors, interact with adorable canines, and contribute to their well-being is an experience like no other. I Recently got some free time and would love to walk all kinds of breeds from cats to dogs just seeing them happy makes me happy. I have 1 fur babie of my own. Bella my pitbull mix she’s 5 months old and a goofball that loves kisses and playing fetch. I care a lot about a dogs routine, safety and mental/physical stimulation because they all deserve the love and appreciation for being our companions.
