Personalized care for your dog or cat - Irving
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Irving
“Julia was super easy to coordinate with, and took good care of my dog Jillie for a couple of nights. There was another dog at her house, which isn’t a huge deal, but I hadn’t realized would be the case and would’ve been good to know in advance. Jillie came home very tuckered out, but overall seemed happy. Julia clearly loves animals!”
“Thank you for taking care of our baby while we were away. Especially with the last minute request. We appreciate the time and effort you put into making sure everything was handled. It gave us peace of mind knowing our dog was in your good care.”
“We can’t say enough good things! She was extremely responsive and an incredible home for Woody while we travelled for the long weekend. Brittani send us pictures throughout our time away, and Woody seemed to be having the best time. We are so lucky to have found Brittani.”
“This was our first time leaving our puppy with a pet sitter. We felt pretty confident going into it given Alan & Reagan’s stellar reviews, but even with high hopes, we were blown away by how well our girl was taken care of! In every photo they sent she appeared to be having the time of her life! I would 100% feel comfortable taking her back if/when we need a sitter again.”
“I had a great experience with the dog sitter! They kept me updated throughout my dog’s stay with regular messages and photos, which I really appreciated. It gave me peace of mind knowing how he was doing. Thank you for taking such good care of him!”
“This was my first time booking with Tainara, and I was hesitant since it was a last-minute holiday booking. Since most of the communication was done via chat before and during the stay, language was not an issue at all. She took great care of my dogs. They came home clean, smelling good, and happily tired, which tells me they were well cared for. I would book with her again when I am out of town.”
“Dane and Celeste were amazing with our timid dog! They offered us a meet and greet a couple days before we boarded our dog which helped get our dog acquainted. We also got so many photo and video updates of our dog having the best time and they made her feel so comfortable away from home. They also made sure to walk her frequently which was a huge bonus! I would definitely recommend booking with Dane and Celeste.”
“We had a great experience with David and his family caring for Dex! They were kind, attentive, and took great care of him throughout his stay. Dex seemed happy and comfortable when we picked him up, and we really appreciated knowing he was in good hands while we were away.”
“Patricia was amazing! She showed so much love to my 2 senior dogs that they didn’t even want to leave when I came to pick them up. Plenty of photos throughout the stay allowed me to see how well they were taken care of.”
“Melky and Jorge were fabulous! We left our 3 pups with them for a few days over the Christmas holiday. It was a last minute decision and our regular sitter was fully booked. Melky send a lot of photos every day showing the pups were having a good time, eating well, and having fun. When we got back, I went to pick them up. They were happy to see me but they kinda wanted to stay there longer. We will re-book with them for sure.”
“Peggy and her husband were absolutely amazing! Duke loved staying with them and I know they treated him as if he were their own. We didn’t worry about him at all the whole time we were gone because we knew he was in such good hands. Peggy will definitely be my go-to from now on anytime we need to board Duke!”
“Yadira was a wonderful sitter, very responsive. I had to make a last-minute change to the booking, and she was very accommodating and so gracious. I appreciated the many pictures through the stay and pup had a blast we will book again!”
“Marquette was the absolute best! I needed help taking care of my dog last minute and Marquette asked all the right questions before booking to make sure she understood my dogs needs and best way to take care. During the stay, she sent multiple pictures and videos (including slomo shots) and provided updates from neighborhood walks and her observations of Rumi as she explored new environments. All the updates helped me feel at ease. Will definitely be rebooking with her. I highly recommend booking Marquette!”
“Mirada was awesome! My furbaby is pretty timid and shy at first but she managed to warm him up to her within minutes! I loved how she sent updates along with videos and pictures of how my fur baby was doing. He looked like he was having a blast and I can tell he was very well taken care of. I would highly recommend Miranda to take care of your fur babies!! I will be booking with Miranda in the future!! 5/5 stars for me!!!!”
“Rebekah and her husband were very nice and welcoming. My pet is always so nervous when I leave him but by the time I picked him up he was so relaxed and I can tell he felt at home. I received updates and pictures the entire time I was away. I would definitely book with them again.”

Cat caregivers near you - Irving
“Regan was great! I was very nervous about leaving my cat alone for an extended period with just a daily visit for the first time since I adopted him, but Regan did an amazing job and was extremely accommodating. She did more than I asked of her, and I came home to a safe and happy cat!”
“Leah was very kind to my cat Tee Tee and Tee Tee immediately accepted her, took his medicine well (very unusual of him when administered by a stranger), played with her, was waiting for her near the door before the scheduled visit time. Leah was very professional in every aspect. She knows her job well. Being a first timer to book a pet sitter at home, the whole experience with Leah couldn't have been any better. I will surely rebook her in future!”
“Evan is AMAZING with our crew of orange tabbies. I love the photos he sends each visit…..and I swear they are smiling as he’s petting them! He’s very dependable and a great communicator. Highly recommend him!!”
“Valeria is amazing! After my original plan for my cat to be watched went south at the very last minute, Valeria came to my rescue! The same day I booked, she was able to come and do a site visit to see my space and to see my Romy! Each day she checked in on time and made sure my baby girl was okay. Valeria really helped put my mind at ease knowing my baby was home alone for 5 days. Thank you so much! I will absolutely use Valeria again!!!”
“John was able to watch our 3 cats on short notice. He followed complex feeding instructions to make sure that our cat with behavioral issues was fed on a regular schedule in a variety of special feeders. He was also very responsive and a pleasure to work with.”
“Haylee was absolutely amazing with my cat Toby while I was away. She was professional, kind, and clearly experienced. She followed all care instructions perfectly and kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. You can tell she genuinely cares and goes the extra mile. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter!”
“Robin seems to be very knowledgeable about cats. My cat, Hana, is extremely shy and timid, but by the second day of Robin’s visits, she was already showing her belly to her which made me surprise!!😮 I truly appreciated her care. I will definitely request her again next time. Thank you so much, Robin!”
“Chaka watched our two cats while we were travelling and she was absolutely wonderful with them! Getting her updates and pictures was a highlight of each day. She went above and beyond and we are so grateful!”
“Pratima Aunty was absolutely wonderful! She sent me updates every single day without me having to ask. Leo seemed to have a great time—he always looked calm and curious in the pictures and videos she shared. I highly recommend her and her family, and I will definitely use their services again if they’re willing to watch Leo in the future. Thank you so much! 🐾😊”
About: I've been caring for cats since I was 8, starting by helping my dad with our family cats. I had a cat of my own that I cared for over 13 years until she passed from cancer, so I understand feline needs at every life stage — from playful kittens to older cats with health needs. I've also pet sat kittens for friends, managing feeding schedules closely. Most notably, I regularly cared for a church friend's diabetic cat while he was on vacation, including administering insulin medication on schedule — on top of taking care of my own cat with her own health needs, so I'm confident and comfortable with cats who need ongoing medical care.
“Unapol took excellent care of my senior special needs pup while I was out of town for a family event :) I received regular updates and pictures and my dog was very comfortable with them. I highly recommend them to anyone!”
“Grace was very good with my two cats! She made sure to ask lots of questions beforehand and made sure they got plenty of play and quality time while I was out of town. Even as a self proclaimed “dog person” she took wonderful care of my kitties :) I would recommend Grace for any pet parent!”
“Mikayla did an amazing job cat sitting for us over our two week vacation. She provided really fun updates and photos over the two weeks and put us at ease that our cat was getting attention (and treats)! Everything went extremely smoothly, would highly recommend.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Irving
“We were driving through, stopping for the day....and Julia taking care of our dogs that day allowed us to have them on our trip. She was fantastic, updating and sending pictures of them relaxing at her home. She was also very flexible with drop off and pick up times, which was greatly appreciated. Thank you Julia!!”
“Hunter was a game saver when we planned an unscheduled Ranger’s game on our road trip. Fast response and we were able to enjoy the game knowing that my dog was being taken care of. Thank you again 🙏.”
“Tainara is wonderful with my dog. She is very flexible with pickup and drop-off times. Tainara always attaches pictures from each day. She loves the dogs like her own. Great communication. Would highly recommend Tainara.”
“Very nice people. Being a little skeptical about using the rover app for the first time, really went out the door. They took my worries out of ease and actually that and made me feel more comfortable of watching my dog. They sent me photos and videos all day, and my dog really enjoyed it.Thank you, wish I could give them a tip.”
About: Ever since I was a child, I have grown up around dogs. Our childhood house was always the house where dogs were always welcome. Fast forward to my own house, own pups, and it’s the same hospitality. Our house is the ultimate doggy day care and hotel with a yard, doggy door (for those smarter pups), and local park to walk and play at. Safety is a top priority for my pup, and those I watch. I treat every dog like my own and know our precious babies are irreplaceable. PS, I’m the guy who plays dog tv for Ari, my golden retriever. Currently work from home with my wife. Plenty of free time to walk, fetch and snuggle. I live near the airport so we are an easy drop off for travelers. Our home is in a quiet neighborhood. We have a fenced yard with a tall fence. We have dog sat dogs of all sizes and tempers and have a good sense of social skills and situations. We have hosted up to 5 dogs in our house at once and know to separate social time from rest time.
About: I've been around dogs my whole life, and my own dog Sammy loves meeting new ones. She's social with just about every type of dog, and her favorite park companions are shepherd breeds and high-energy pups who can keep up with her. Large dogs are no problem for me — I'm comfortable handling two or three 90-pounders at once, and Sammy holds her own right alongside them. To be upfront: I don't have much experience with young puppies or dogs with health issues. What I can promise is that I'm reliable with medication — if your dog is on a schedule, I'll stick to it. I am currently working from home and pretty much only leave to go to the gym or out to dinner. When I go out it's usually to a park and I bring Sammy with me. We have a dog door and large fenced in backyard. The fence is tall and inescapable by any dog bigger than 10lbs (a very small dog might be able to slip through). There are lots of toys outside and Sammy shares them.
“Jane is the sweetest and most attentive sitter! I feel so comfortable dropping our puppy off with her! My puppy is always SO excited when we pull up to her house which makes me happy.”
“Michael has been awesome with my dog. He is easy to communicate with to arrange drop off and pick up times. I get lots of picture and videos of my pup throughout the day.. it’s obvious she has a lot of fun playing with his dogs and she feels comfortable in his home.”
“Liz took wonderful care of my slightly anxious dog and made her feel safe throughout the stay. She also sent thoughtful updates with photos, which I really appreciated.”
“Friendly, attentive, excellent communication & care. This was my dogs first time being boarded and I was nervous about it due to her history of nervousness about changes to routine and familiarity. She LOVED her time with Sam and his wife and was excited to see them each morning while I was in town for a work training. This is a huge step in Almas development and training to be handled by someone else (she is originally a rescue with trauma). Thank you and I would highly recommend.”

I have hands-on experience with energetic puppies, including walks, playtime, feeding, and basic commands.

I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment and follow all instructions from pet parents.

About: I love all animals and have a passion for caring for them. I have been trusted to care for many types of animals and I always make sure treat each one as if they were my own because I now they are a cherished member of someone's family. I have experience with puppies, potty training, administering medications and caring senior animals. I work from home so I am able to give around the clock attention when caring for animals and accommodate specific pet routines with my schedule. I have a 2-story townhome with small gated backyard that leads to our community walking path. I also have 2 playful dogs that can be separated if needed. I also have a husband and 2 children with the same love of animals as me.
About: I've been around dogs and caring for them for more than 25 years, including my own dogs as well as the dogs of family, friends, and neighbors. I've always been the person people call when they need someone they can trust with their pets, and honestly, caring for animals has always felt like a bit of a secret calling in my life. I love getting to know each dog's personality, figuring out what makes them comfortable, and making sure they feel at home while their people are away. From puppies to older dogs, energetic playmates to dogs who are happiest curled up beside you, I've had the privilege of caring for all kinds of personalities over the years. Rover gives me a chance to finally share something I've genuinely loved doing for most of my life with more families who need someone they can trust. I work from home, so I'm around for my canine guests throughout the day and don't have to leave them home alone for hours while I'm at work. Caring for the dogs is a genuine part of my daily routine, with plenty of opportunities for potty breaks, play, attention, naps, and just hanging out together. Our fenced backyard makes it easy to get outside throughout the day, while the air-conditioned house gives everyone a comfortable place to play and relax, especially during the Texas heat. I keep my boarding numbers intentionally small, no more than three guest dogs at a time, so I can actually spend time with each one rather than trying to manage a house full of dogs. Whether your pup wants to play with Rosie, follow me around while I work, curl up on the sofa, or take a nap in their own bed, they'll have plenty of company and attention. I take your dog's safety seriously, but I also want them to feel like they're staying in a home, and not being put somewhere and simply watched. I limit boarding to three guest dogs at a time, which gives me the ability to keep an eye on everyone and pay attention to each dog's individual needs. Our backyard is surrounded by an 8-foot wooden fence and has a large tree that keeps most of the yard shaded, giving the dogs a secure place for supervised outdoor time and potty breaks. With the Texas heat, I don't believe dogs need to spend hours outside to have a good time. Most of their play and exercise can happen comfortably inside our air-conditioned home, with regular trips outside when the weather allows. Rosie, our 10-year-old Chiweenie/Corgi mix, is part of the household and absolutely loves having new friends around. She's happy to play with younger dogs, larger dogs, or dogs with plenty of energy, which makes her a great companion for our guests. Because the dogs will be sharing our home, I do look for dogs who are comfortable around other dogs; I don't want a guest spending their vacation separated from everyone else or stuck in a crate simply because they can't safely interact with the other dogs. I also like to keep things as familiar as possible for each dog. You're welcome to bring their own bed, crate, blanket, toys, food, or anything else that helps them settle in. Puppies are welcome, including those who are still working on house training, and puppy pads are perfectly fine for smaller dogs who aren't quite ready to rely on the backyard. If your dog has special needs or a particular routine, I'm happy to discuss what they require ahead of time and determine whether I can provide the right care. And while you're away, I don't want you wondering what your dog is up to. I send daily pictures and updates so you can see how they're settling in, playing, relaxing, and getting along with their new friends. At the end of the day, I want you to have the same feeling I'd want if I were leaving Rosie with someone: that she's safe, happy, comfortable, and genuinely being cared for.
“Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my puppyson! It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such loving and capable hands. I could tell he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I truly appreciate the updates, attention, and kindness you showed him.”

“Bregayle is great! I wasn’t sure how my pup would respond to a stranger coming in the house but Bregayle did it with ease! She sent me pictures of every step. I am looking forward to booking her again and again!”
“Great, my puppy really enjoy his walks with Rebecca, she is professional and keeps the communication with me , she is helpful and willing to meet my expectations”
“We were SO happy to find Evan! He is very soft-spoken and kind. I think our girls really enjoyed their walks with him. He was also very responsive via text! We look forward to using Evan again soon!”
About: Several years of experience with different type of pets. I love being outdoors and can handle longer walks with pets. I've done well training my own dog to do tricks. I am patient and compassionate. I'm currently pretty flexible on what times work. I'm reliable, consistent and great at communicating. Lets chat some more and see what works for you all. I plan on following the directions given to me upon booking. Paying attention to social cues from your pet and assessing how comfortable they feel.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for many years of all ages and sizes for friends and family. I’ve grown up with dogs and they are part of the family. I will treat your furry friend like my own giving you peace of mind. I’m currently a grad student, so I am pretty flexible with scheduling. Weekends are the most flexible. I will work with you to find a time that works best. I’m available for drop ins and walks and making sure that your furry friends are doing okay while you are away. I care for pets in clients' homes by following feeding schedules, providing fresh water, administering medications if needed, cleaning up, and ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own home. I will help them get their exercise in by going on walks and getting all their energy out.
About: I am fully retired and dogsitting is my only job. Therefore no distractions and your dog will get my full attention. You also get three pairs of eyes. I’m a mom and a wife! My husband and daughter stay at home. If your pet is okay with family vibes we would be a perfect fit! Growing up on a farm, I was surrounded by animals of all kinds—cows, goats, chickens, dogs, and more. Caring for them wasn’t just a chore; it was a way of life. Because of that, taking care of pets comes naturally to me. Whether it’s feeding, grooming, or just giving them the love and attention they need, I instinctively know how to handle animals with patience and care. Beyond basic pet sitting, I have experience training puppies, caring for senior pets, and handling animals with special needs. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, a structured routine, or gentle care in their older years, I’m here to make sure they’re comfortable, happy, and well cared for. We don’t do big dogs for boarding we focus on 0-15 lbs or something close. Pet care isn’t just something I do—it’s my main job and my passion. Since I grew up on a farm caring for animals every day, looking after pets feels like second nature to me. Now, as a professional pet sitter, my daily and weekly routine revolves around making sure every pet I care for is happy, healthy, and well looked after. From morning walks and feeding schedules to playtime, training, and even senior pet care, I tailor my days to fit each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s a midday check-in, an overnight stay, or specialized care, I’m fully dedicated to giving pets the love and attention they need while their owners are away.
“Katrina was prompt and professional and polite while walking my 35 lbs male golden doodle 🐶 . I recommend Rover.com and Katrina. Thank you 🙏 for your attention to this dog walking matter.”
About: Hi! I’m a stay at home human mom to one 5 month old and a mom to 3 furry babes! I’d love the opportunity to host your furry kids in my home and love them like my own. My dogs even have their own “room” in my home. I don’t have the biggest yard but we go on daily walks around my neighborhood and i have lots of dog treats! I’ll parent your fur kids the same way you do and keep up with their normal feeding and potty schedules. My baby has her own baby dedicated space to play so your dogs will never be left unsupervised with her and since I’m one full time it makes it very easy for me to keep an eye on everyone!
“Diana was truly a great help for me. Upon first meeting, I could tell that she cares deeply for animals and had an immediate connection with my dog Windsor. It was great that she provided multiple pictures for each walk that she did, as it let me know that everything was well while I was multiple states away. I highly recommend Diana and would definitely use her in the future.”

“Irina does a great job taking care of our baby, Simba. She walked him 16 times over the last two weeks and was on time every day and made sure our boy had a nice walk (not too long and not too short) despite the Texas heat. Irina is always our first call, she is the best!”

I always make time for play, walks, and care whenever I’m available. Understanding and learning your pets boundaries are key. All pets have certain personalities that dictate behavior and personal interest. I am a very flexible person and will take my time to make sure the pet is comfortable and trusting of me.

“Julia was super easy to coordinate with, and took good care of my dog Jillie for a couple of nights. There was another dog at her house, which isn’t a huge deal, but I hadn’t realized would be the case and would’ve been good to know in advance. Jillie came home very tuckered out, but overall seemed happy. Julia clearly loves animals!”
“Sabrina is flexible and communicates well. Buddy seems to enjoy himself while staying here and playing with their dogs. I will continue to book with these kind and caring individuals.”

“We can’t say enough good things! She was extremely responsive and an incredible home for Woody while we travelled for the long weekend. Brittani send us pictures throughout our time away, and Woody seemed to be having the best time. We are so lucky to have found Brittani.”
“This was our first time leaving our puppy with a pet sitter. We felt pretty confident going into it given Alan & Reagan’s stellar reviews, but even with high hopes, we were blown away by how well our girl was taken care of! In every photo they sent she appeared to be having the time of her life! I would 100% feel comfortable taking her back if/when we need a sitter again.”
“Thank You Elizabeth for taking such good care of our pup! Knowing that Brandi was well taken care of made our vacation so much easier. We appreciate the updates you sent and the pictures were great! We are glad you and Brandi got along so well and we will be reaching out to you the next time we travel. We highly recommend Elizabeth!”
“This was my first time booking with Tainara, and I was hesitant since it was a last-minute holiday booking. Since most of the communication was done via chat before and during the stay, language was not an issue at all. She took great care of my dogs. They came home clean, smelling good, and happily tired, which tells me they were well cared for. I would book with her again when I am out of town.”
“We are so incredibly grateful to have found Jane! From the very first meet and greet, she was warm, welcoming, and instantly put us at ease. Duke took to her right away, which spoke volumes to us. During the 10 days he stayed with her, Jane kept us consistently updated with plenty of pictures and videos each day. It was such a comfort to see how happy and well cared for he was. She truly treated Duke as if he were her own. He especially loved snuggling with her and playing with the other dogs in her care. Her backyard is fantastic, very secure, spacious, and completely dog-friendly. We also really appreciated how intentional she is about introducing dogs one at a time so they don’t feel overwhelmed. It’s clear she is thoughtful, experienced, and genuinely cares about each dog’s comfort and safety. You can truly tell Jane has the biggest heart for animals. She is such a sweetheart, and we feel so lucky to have found her. We will absolutely be booking with her again in the future!”

To be upfront: I don't have much experience with young puppies or dogs with health issues. What I can promise is that I'm reliable with medication — if your dog is on a schedule, I'll stick to it. I am currently working from home and pretty much only leave to go to the gym or out to dinner. When I go out it's usually to a park and I bring Sammy with me. We have a dog door and large fenced in backyard. The fence is tall and inescapable by any dog bigger than 10lbs (a very small dog might be able to slip through). There are lots of toys outside and Sammy shares them.
“Katia took great care of Memo during his first experience away from home. From the videos and pictures I saw, it seemed like he had a lot of fun with the other dogs, going on walks, and playing in the yard!”
“Dane and Celeste were amazing with our timid dog! They offered us a meet and greet a couple days before we boarded our dog which helped get our dog acquainted. We also got so many photo and video updates of our dog having the best time and they made her feel so comfortable away from home. They also made sure to walk her frequently which was a huge bonus! I would definitely recommend booking with Dane and Celeste.”
“Patricia was amazing! She showed so much love to my 2 senior dogs that they didn’t even want to leave when I came to pick them up. Plenty of photos throughout the stay allowed me to see how well they were taken care of.”
“Peggy and her husband were absolutely amazing! Duke loved staying with them and I know they treated him as if he were their own. We didn’t worry about him at all the whole time we were gone because we knew he was in such good hands. Peggy will definitely be my go-to from now on anytime we need to board Duke!”
“Yadira was a wonderful sitter, very responsive. I had to make a last-minute change to the booking, and she was very accommodating and so gracious. I appreciated the many pictures through the stay and pup had a blast we will book again!”
“Marquette was the absolute best! I needed help taking care of my dog last minute and Marquette asked all the right questions before booking to make sure she understood my dogs needs and best way to take care. During the stay, she sent multiple pictures and videos (including slomo shots) and provided updates from neighborhood walks and her observations of Rumi as she explored new environments. All the updates helped me feel at ease. Will definitely be rebooking with her. I highly recommend booking Marquette!”
“Mirada was awesome! My furbaby is pretty timid and shy at first but she managed to warm him up to her within minutes! I loved how she sent updates along with videos and pictures of how my fur baby was doing. He looked like he was having a blast and I can tell he was very well taken care of. I would highly recommend Miranda to take care of your fur babies!! I will be booking with Miranda in the future!! 5/5 stars for me!!!!”
“Excellent sitter. She was very welcoming to not only my dog but me as well, very kind spirited, and shared amazing and timely updates . 🩷 will be rebooking with her to keep my dog .”
About: I've been around dogs and caring for them for more than 25 years, including my own dogs as well as the dogs of family, friends, and neighbors. I've always been the person people call when they need someone they can trust with their pets, and honestly, caring for animals has always felt like a bit of a secret calling in my life. I love getting to know each dog's personality, figuring out what makes them comfortable, and making sure they feel at home while their people are away. From puppies to older dogs, energetic playmates to dogs who are happiest curled up beside you, I've had the privilege of caring for all kinds of personalities over the years. Rover gives me a chance to finally share something I've genuinely loved doing for most of my life with more families who need someone they can trust. I work from home, so I'm around for my canine guests throughout the day and don't have to leave them home alone for hours while I'm at work. Caring for the dogs is a genuine part of my daily routine, with plenty of opportunities for potty breaks, play, attention, naps, and just hanging out together. Our fenced backyard makes it easy to get outside throughout the day, while the air-conditioned house gives everyone a comfortable place to play and relax, especially during the Texas heat. I keep my boarding numbers intentionally small, no more than three guest dogs at a time, so I can actually spend time with each one rather than trying to manage a house full of dogs. Whether your pup wants to play with Rosie, follow me around while I work, curl up on the sofa, or take a nap in their own bed, they'll have plenty of company and attention. I take your dog's safety seriously, but I also want them to feel like they're staying in a home, and not being put somewhere and simply watched. I limit boarding to three guest dogs at a time, which gives me the ability to keep an eye on everyone and pay attention to each dog's individual needs. Our backyard is surrounded by an 8-foot wooden fence and has a large tree that keeps most of the yard shaded, giving the dogs a secure place for supervised outdoor time and potty breaks. With the Texas heat, I don't believe dogs need to spend hours outside to have a good time. Most of their play and exercise can happen comfortably inside our air-conditioned home, with regular trips outside when the weather allows. Rosie, our 10-year-old Chiweenie/Corgi mix, is part of the household and absolutely loves having new friends around. She's happy to play with younger dogs, larger dogs, or dogs with plenty of energy, which makes her a great companion for our guests. Because the dogs will be sharing our home, I do look for dogs who are comfortable around other dogs; I don't want a guest spending their vacation separated from everyone else or stuck in a crate simply because they can't safely interact with the other dogs. I also like to keep things as familiar as possible for each dog. You're welcome to bring their own bed, crate, blanket, toys, food, or anything else that helps them settle in. Puppies are welcome, including those who are still working on house training, and puppy pads are perfectly fine for smaller dogs who aren't quite ready to rely on the backyard. If your dog has special needs or a particular routine, I'm happy to discuss what they require ahead of time and determine whether I can provide the right care. And while you're away, I don't want you wondering what your dog is up to. I send daily pictures and updates so you can see how they're settling in, playing, relaxing, and getting along with their new friends. At the end of the day, I want you to have the same feeling I'd want if I were leaving Rosie with someone: that she's safe, happy, comfortable, and genuinely being cared for.
