“We are so lucky to have found Rachel!!!! She clearly loves dogs and we felt instantly comfortable with both her and Richard. They are a lovely couple who inspire confidence in the care they will give your fur baby. Rachel sent us pictures showing us a happy, comfortable Sangi. We can vacation with ease now knowing he'll be well cared for and loved.”

“As a first time Rover customer, I was so nervous about leaving Conor with anyone other than the 3 people who have ever watched any of my dogs. Lisa was calm and very kind, with her 4 years of Rover experience and countless dogs that have stayed at her home being of comfort to me. I received regular updates of photos so I knew he was quite content at her home. She was also very flexible on my quick turnaround request, and slightly unpredictable return schedule, which was a huge weight off my shoulders. Conor said he had a great time with Lisa and even got to meet her boyfriend and also a puppy during his stay! A bonus is that Lisa makes and uses her own candles, which means Conor came back smelling really good.”

“Maria and her family. Words cannot express how grateful i am. They were so loving and caring. Maria sent pictures, notes Letting me know how she was doing. Several times while I was away. Even gave fancy a bath before I picked her up. I love Maria and her family. THE BEST OF THE BEST. Sincerely ,THANK YOU,Maria and to your family.”

“Karissa was great, took the appointment last minute. Excellent communication and treated our puppy with love and care. I would recommend her to other owners looking for someone to care for their dogs. Will definitely use Karissa again, 5 star!!”

“Maria was great, and our dog seems like he had a good time. Maria was so accommodating and flexible when we needed to pick him up an hour late because our kid overslept. We will definitely be booking with her again next time we need a sitter!”

“Sara was amazing with my two dogs. She sent daily pictures of them playing or being loved on by her daughter. But when I picked them up they were so calm. This was my first time to use her service. I was very nervous to leave them with a stranger but I can tell she loved them as her own. Her home and yard were perfect for their needs. I have already made a second reservation with Sara.”

“Yulia is the best dog sitter I’ve ever had! My dog is skittish and frequently feels unsafe in unknown places. Surprisingly, he wiggled his tale and went straight to her on arrival. Upon pick up, he didn’t even want to leave! I’ve also received updates and photos of my fur baby during the stay and he looked soo happy. Looking forward to future bookings!”
“Lauren is always the best! Our dog loves staying there, I think more than his own home! She takes great care of him while he’s there, loves the huge backyard, and is spoiled the entire time! Thank you so much for the great care you always provide!”


“We were a little apprehensive about leaving Namjoon with a sitter but when we met Nubia she made us feel good. When we were on vacation (we were 17 hours ahead) it was nice to wake up to pictures of Nammy and a report of how she was doing. We love Nubia and Nammy also loves her. She will be our official sitter from now on. She is an amazing person. Thank you for taking such good care of Nammy.”
“Absolutely excellent couple. My dig is a bit shy and by the end of his time he was really loving it there. I will definitely board with Clyde and Nancy again. I appreciate them greatly.”

“Amazing, amazing, amazing. She was so sweet and caring to my puppy and cat. Sent me pics and updates. Can't say enough good things about her. Am definitely going to use her whenever I go on vacation again!”


“First time our dog was boarded with a non-family member. I was nervous, but Jason too great care of our dog. He listened to our concerns and remedied them. I will definitely use Jason again in the future!”

“Aedan is the absolute best dog sitter! Daily pictures and updates along with easy communication. My dog loved staying with him and from the pictures felt right at home. Thanks for everything!”

“I cannot speak highly enough about Rachel. This was my first time ever using the Rover app— And trusting a stranger with my anxiety ridden dog was crazy. However, this experience completely exceeded my expectations. There wasn’t even a second guess when I met her. She greeted my dog before me. He immediately made her house a home and she welcomed him in with open arms. She was attentive to his needs, showed him so much love, and sent me so many pictures, videos and updates— that I already knew his safety and my worries weren’t even in question. Her and her beautiful family are so thoughtful and so fur baby friendly. My boy came home so relaxed and so tuckered out. That speaks volumes in itself for a dog like him. 1000/10 would rebook. Rachel is absolutely amazing. She truly cares about what she does and all the babies she takes in.”
“Lindsay was really responsive and provided us with lots of pictures and even videos of our baby. She was really flexible and accommodating. Our baby came home happy and it seems like he had his own vacation while boarding with Lindsay. Highly recommend her and will be using her again.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life and have a deep passion for providing safe, loving environments for pets of all kinds. As a dedicated animal lover, I’ve personally rescued and fostered animals, which has given me hands‑on experience with pets of different temperaments, needs, and backgrounds. At home, I care for my two friendly dogs, Rose and Oreo, along with our four cats, Binx, Frodo, Samwise, and our foster kitty Ying. Because of this, I’m very comfortable managing multi‑pet households and ensuring everyone feels comfortable, safe, and included. All of my pets are well‑socialized and get along, creating a calm and welcoming environment for visiting animals. Since I work from home, I’m able to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and attention throughout the day—whether that means playtime, walks, feeding routines, or just making sure your pet feels loved and secure. My long‑term goal is to open my own animal rescue, and every pet I care for is treated like part of the family. I work full time from home. I have flexibility in my schedule to care for pets such as feeding, medicine, frequent potty breaks and walks. I have a fenced in yard, dog gates for the stairs and master bedroom to keep the dogs out of areas they should not be in. I have crates for my dogs to sleep in or to stay in when I leave the house.
“Alexus is great and very reliable! My baby is always excited to go with her and always happy when I pick her up. Communication is great and I always get picture/video updates! Would definitely recommend”

“Brittany and her family are exceptional, loved by our family and by our pit mix, Tennason. Brittany is great in communicating, sending pictures and messages, and reaching out when there is a concern. We so appreciate knowing we can get away and that Tenny is in good hands!”

“Alyssa took such good care of our bunnies and cat! She sent detailed descriptions of how things went during each drop-in and included lots of photos. She was incredibly thorough in making sure she had all the info she needed to provide the best possible care. I was very impressed and happy to see how well she cared for and loved our pets! Thank you so much Alyssa!”
About: Over the years, I have house sat for numerous friends and family while they were away on vacation or business trips. I genuinely love getting to play and take care of other peoples animals. You can be at ease knowing your fur baby will be happily waiting for you to return home. I also worked at a vet clinic for about two years taking care of small and large animals. Therefore, I am very comfortable with a wide array of animals. I do work a 40 hour per week job as a landscape estimator. Monday, Wednesday, & Friday I work from 7am-4pm. Tuesday & Thursday I work 9am - 5pm. Any time outside of these hours is flexible. I currently live in an apartment with my 50lb Labrador named Gus. This is why I am not offering in house pet care haha. He is definitely spoiled, but is crated during the day while I am at work so he does not eat my furniture. I drive home every day at lunch and let him outside to use the restroom. While I am walking your dogs I would like to also walk my dog. He is super friendly with other dogs and is honestly a big goof ball. If you request for me to take care of your animals in your own home I always care for them as instructed. Being, gentle, friendly, and loving with them is obviously apart of the job, but the specifics for feeding, potty breaks, etc is dependent on the situation.
“Our two cats were so happy with Bianca’s visit. She played with them, gave them fresh food and water, plus scooped the litter boxes. They were so chill when we arrived home, so we know they were happy. Already booking Bianca for a future visit.”

“My boys had so much fun with Alexis. I loved seeing their photos! This was the first time leaving my pups with anyone besides family and Alexis made me feel so at ease the whole time! ?”


“She is absolutely amazing and she takes such good care of my animals and she communicates and keeps me updated so well I really think my animal is progressing and being so wonderfully handled”

About: I started out taking care of animals for family friends. I've been taking care of animals through Rover for about a year or so now. I also had an internship in a vet clinic for a few months. I will be starting school at ETAMU in the fall and will have classes Monday-Friday. I will be at school all day on Mondays but done around noon on the other days. I'm usually very open on the weekends but can make during the week work if your pets can be left alone for a few hours. Or if you need an evening sitter only. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping them comfortable and safe in their familiar environment. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely regarding feeding, walks, playtime, and any special routines. I make sure doors and gates are secure, keep a clean space, and give plenty of love and attention so pets feel relaxed and cared for. My goal is to build trust with both pets and owners by treating every animal as if they were my own.

If wet outside I will let them out to go to the bathroom then dry their fur before letting them enter the home.

About: What sets me apart is the level of attention and care I give to every pet. Since I work from home, I’m able to be very present and flexible, which means your pet won’t be left alone for long periods and can stick to their usual routine. I’m patient and attentive with all dogs, including puppies who need consistency and basic reinforcement, as well as senior dogs who may need a slower pace, extra care, or medication reminders. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality so they feel comfortable, safe, and happy. I also make sure to keep mom or dad updated with messages and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing. :) Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine since I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m able to plan my day around walks, visits, feeding times, and playtime without feeling rushed. This flexibility allows me to accommodate different schedules, including morning, midday, and evening visits. I can also provide consistent attention throughout the day, which is especially helpful for pets that need more interaction, supervision, or companionship. When caring for pets, I always try to follow their usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. This includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. In a client’s home, I respect the space and make sure your pet feels secure in their familiar environment while giving them plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment where they can relax and feel at home. I supervise them closely, ensure they get enough activity and attention, and adjust care based on their energy level and needs. My goal is always to make your baby feel loved and cared for, just like they would with their family.

She is extremely professional and very responsive and provided a report afterward with pictures and details of how often he went potty and specific mannerisms that made her laugh.

About: I've had dogs in my life since my infancy and love dogs. I don't have a favorite breed since I think all dogs are special in their own right but I'm a big fan of chihuahuas and bulldogs. I am a freelance artist so I have plenty of time to devote to animal care. I am able to bring my setup for overnight stays so my schedule won't be impacted during pet care. I have a shared two bedroom apartment that is surrounded by plenty of grassy walking areas and a fenced in dog park, so if your pets stay with me, we'll have lots to do. I also don't mind traveling to or staying overnight at a client's house as I have my own vehicle and no other outside obligations.
“Samantha was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Pumpkin! She walked Pumpkin and made sure he was fed while I was away, giving me total peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares about pets, and I appreciated her reliability and communication. Highly recommend her for anyone needing a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember. My pets are my children so I love them fiercely. I have worked with and volunteered with animals for the last 15 years. I’ve spent time with pets in a clinic environment as a vet tech, a shelter environment as a kennel tech and dog walker, and a rescue environment as a volunteer. My volunteer time has included transporting pets, walking dogs, helping mamas who just had puppies, and loving on new puppies too! I have flexibility and freedom with my schedule. I can do drop ins, stay and visit with your pet for a bit, and do feedings or give meds if need be. Because my own dogs can be knuckleheads, I can take care of your pets in your home. It might help make their time away from you easier for them anyhow. I can take them for walks, play with them in your yard, take them for car rides, and just hang out with them. My goal would be to make your pets as happy and comfortable as possible. When they’re happy, you’re happy…and then you can enjoy your time away.

She's a great choice if you're looking for reliability!”

About: I love caring for dogs! I have years of experience looking after different dog breeds and personalities for my family and friends. I'm good at teaching puppies basic obedience and making sure they start off with great habits. I create a safe and loving environment for dogs, giving them all the attention and care they need to be happy and healthy. My friends always count on me because I'm reliable and I genuinely adore animals. I treat every dog as if they were my own. Although I haven't had much experience with senior dogs, I'm dedicated to learning and adjusting to meet their specific needs. Pet care seamlessly fits into my daily and weekly routine. I work part-time, allowing me to be highly flexible and responsive to the needs of pet owners. I am available for boarding on weekends, providing a reliable option for those weekend getaways. During weekdays, I am available before 11 AM and after 5 PM. With prior notice, I can also take time off work to care for dogs during the day. This flexibility ensures that I can provide consistent, loving care tailored to each pet's schedule and needs. When I take care of pets in my home, I make sure to create a safe and cozy environment for them. My medium-sized backyard is fully enclosed with a gated fence, providing a secure space for dogs to play and roam. Inside, I maintain a pet-friendly, clean, and peaceful atmosphere where dogs can unwind and feel right at home. In clients' homes, I always maintain high standards of care and give them plenty of attention. I'll follow any specific instructions you provide to keep your pets' routines consistent and stress-free. Whether your pets are with me or in your home, their safety and well-being are my top priority. I treat them with the same love and respect as I would my own pets.
About: I’ve taken care and have had my own dogs since I was little. I have experience with all different breeds, sizes, and ages. I worked at a vet clinic and can administer any medications if need be. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I make time each day for walks, feeding, playtime, and giving dogs the attention and care they deserve. I have a flexible schedule, so I can provide consistent care, regular potty breaks, exercise, and lots of love throughout the day. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always make their safety, comfort, and happiness my top priorities. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their normal routine consistent. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications (if needed), and any other special care your pet requires. I make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, affection, and exercise while keeping your home clean, secure, and respected. My goal is to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

About: Hi to all! My name is Amby, and I would love to take care of your fur baby! I have been dog-sitting for about 2 years now, and have worked with puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs. I have experience with administering medications, picking up dogs from daycare, staying overnight, assisting dogs with physical needs, and dog walking/drop-ins. I also used to be a day-foster at Operation Kindness, where I got my wonderful dog, Huey! I would love to have the privilege to meet your fur baby. Please message me if you have any questions- my schedule is flexible. My schedule is fairly flexible, as I work at a school during the year and am currently off for the summer! Please message me if you have any questions or concerns. I care for your pets by ensuring every walk is a structured, personalized adventure tailored to your pet's breed and needs. For example, high-energy breeds may prefer a jog to a local park, while calmer breeds may prefer a small trot around the block. Focused on safety and reliability, I watch your pets very closely to ensure they don't grow too tired, and I provide detailed updates and photos after every session!
About: I am a military spouse and mother of three who previously worked in retail. I got a certification for Veterinary assistant a few years ago. Now I'm hoping to continue my education and become a certified pet nutritionist. In between time I am currently just looking forward to working with and caring for all different pets. I've always loved animals and cared for many different pets growing up. My availability at this time is open due to me being a full-time stay a home parent now. Have skills working with older dogs, large dogs, cats, lizards, turtles, and birds. I'm also willing to work with pets with special needs only if willing to give specific instructions on their needs. I will care for your pet like he/she is my own. I am currently full time at home unless I have others to drop in on throughout the day. The weekends I am fully available to care for pets. I have a fully fenced on yard, baby gates located at the bottom of the stairs and to the laundry room which are the main two places our cat likes to be.

I treat every animal in my care like my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I have experience caring for dogs and cats.

“Maria was great, and our dog seems like he had a good time. Maria was so accommodating and flexible when we needed to pick him up an hour late because our kid overslept. We will definitely be booking with her again next time we need a sitter!”


“We were a little apprehensive about leaving Namjoon with a sitter but when we met Nubia she made us feel good. When we were on vacation (we were 17 hours ahead) it was nice to wake up to pictures of Nammy and a report of how she was doing. We love Nubia and Nammy also loves her. She will be our official sitter from now on. She is an amazing person. Thank you for taking such good care of Nammy.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life and have a deep passion for providing safe, loving environments for pets of all kinds. As a dedicated animal lover, I’ve personally rescued and fostered animals, which has given me hands‑on experience with pets of different temperaments, needs, and backgrounds. At home, I care for my two friendly dogs, Rose and Oreo, along with our four cats, Binx, Frodo, Samwise, and our foster kitty Ying. Because of this, I’m very comfortable managing multi‑pet households and ensuring everyone feels comfortable, safe, and included. All of my pets are well‑socialized and get along, creating a calm and welcoming environment for visiting animals. Since I work from home, I’m able to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and attention throughout the day—whether that means playtime, walks, feeding routines, or just making sure your pet feels loved and secure. My long‑term goal is to open my own animal rescue, and every pet I care for is treated like part of the family. I work full time from home. I have flexibility in my schedule to care for pets such as feeding, medicine, frequent potty breaks and walks. I have a fenced in yard, dog gates for the stairs and master bedroom to keep the dogs out of areas they should not be in. I have crates for my dogs to sleep in or to stay in when I leave the house.

“We needed a last minute sitter for a week long vacation and a friend recommended Rover. Having never used Rover before, we were nervous about leaving our pup with a “stranger”. Lovanna was very understanding and even agreed to meet with us before finalizing the booking. She took great care of Ruby, picked her up from our house the day we left and when our flight home was pushed back she even brought her back home - which wasn’t the original plan. We are new to the area and really appreciated finding such a caring, understanding and flexible sitter on such short notice.”
