“My 14 year old dog's kidney disease rapidly progressed while we were away. Joe stayed with him at the vet and even went back a day later to transfered Bo to another vet, so he could receive care through the weekend. (Thankfully we made it back in time to say goodbye to Bo.) I highly recommend Joe as a petsitter. He made our dog's last days comfortable.”
“Tracy was amazing with our dog who can be very anxious. This was the first time ever that we have picked him up from boarding that he was completely calm and didn’t seem stressed at all. Tracy sent pictures and communicated all weekend. I would recommend Tracy to anyone. Our little guy was treated with care and love just like he was one of their own.”

“Brittany was great with Sorrel. He got lots of exercise, cuddles, and attention! I received several updates too, which was really lovely to get while I was away. Winstyn got along great with Sorrel as well :) 10/10 would recommend Brittany anyone looking for a dog care!”

About: I am retired. I will spend quality time with your dog! I have owned dogs all of my life. Our little Maddie went over the rainbow bridge November 2025 (at age 13 1/2). We miss her but have not taken the plunge for our next dog. Waiting on that special one to enter our lives! In the meantime, I am just pet sitting and enjoying other's dogs. When friends and relatives visit, their dogs are welcome too. Our home is totally dog friendly. We have a fenced in yard, as well as 7 acres to roam with a leash. If they enjoy riding in a side by side, we will go for rides. I am retired. I have plenty of time to play with your pup, and I will make sure they are well cared for, never left alone outdoors, and I have experience with giving medication too. Walking, playing and snuggling will be a part of each day. I have a fenced yard. I get up early to let them out to go potty. Potty breaks are as often as needed. I have experience with all size dogs.

“Britney was great at providing updates on our cat who receives medicine for his heart issue. I am so glad that we were able to book her to check on our 4 cats while we were away!”


About: Over the past 5 years we had cats come to our home, found them on roads, and found them around my old high school. We have 8 kitties, 1 outside , 7 inside. I have cleaned 6 of the 8 cats myself when we rescued them, I am currently in college so I was not around when we rescued the 2 newest kitties. I took 5 of them to the vet and administered flea and worm medicine to them. Some of them also had eye/ear problems and I would take care of them by giving them eye/ear drops with no problem (I gave them treats so they would feel better!)

“This girl is awesome! My parents are elderly and my mom was there for one of her visits and she still made sure to communicate everything necessary. She played with my younger hyper male and snuggled my senior when she felt he was missing us. I will definitely b rebooking her in the future.”


“Kim was amazing! She went above and beyond and I’m so grateful! She communicated wonderfully and sent plenty of pics while I was away. This was the first time I left my cats with a sitter and wasn’t sure what to expect, but Kim was so wonderful and made it such an easy process. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my girls were well taken care of! 💞”

“I am so grateful for Stefanie! I had to book her last-minute due to a cancelation from another sitter, and she did a great job learning the ropes despite us not having a meet and greet beforehand for her to get to know the cats and our setup at the house. She kept us updated and helped ensure that our cat got his heart medication. Highly recommend!”


“Kasie was wonderful and patient with my two kitties. She texted me every time she was come to and from the house. She sent pictures and updated me on their feedings. I highly recommend booking with her!”

“Wow! What an amazing, dedicated young woman! She went past above and beyond. Our dog is a Malinois mix, and extremely territorial. Mikalah is such a dog lover, she got dog kisses on her first visit. On top of that, our dog was on at least 6 different medications. Mikalah handled this flawlessly. To make matters even more challenging, there was a HUGE snowstorm. I almost didn’t go on my trip, but Mikalah reassured me she would be there rain or snow. Schools and businesses closed, but she made it morning and night to our dog. So grateful to have found her!!!”


About: I’ve taken care of multiple cats over the years! I’m always sure to be patient meeting new furry friends and giving them time to acclimate to me. I understand a cat’s trust needs to be earned and I’m willing to put in the work to care for them as they need! I’ve always loved cats and taking care of my own over the years has given me an appreciation for each kitty and their own distinct personalities. I can play with them or give them their space if that’s what they want. I’ll clean out litter boxes too. No one wants that smell lingering! If needed I can also deep clean the litter boxes. Which includes: dumping out the old litter, thoroughly rinsing and washing the box and cover, cleaning or changing top filters, and adding new litter. I understand that most cats have their own feeding schedule so I will be sure to keep to that as well! Also provide any treats when warranted. I’m so excited to meet, care for and love your fur babies! They will get nothing but the best from me!

About: I have always loved cats, and had always been around them in some capacity growing up; Had outside cats, inside cats, befriended neighborhood cats and fed strays. I knew at a very young age that cats were just different and you needed to earn their trust and respect at their pace. I started working professionally with cats at my first veterinary job back in 2008, and it made me love them so much more. My first cat I adopted as an adult was a 16 year old tabby named Lincoln who was about to be euthanized for being bullied by the other 9 young cats at home. I said "absolutely not!" And I took him home, loved him, learned so much more about cats and he lived to be about 20 years old. I started working with rescues, with TNR projects, raising litters of kittens. I am just passionate about them. I'm patient, I understand their behavior and their language. I'm comfortable administering medications in any form (oral, injectable, etc.). Im comfortable caring for healthy cats, as well as those with special needs, and of course hospice kitties as well. I'm also always happy and ready to help with kittens. I have a deep understanding of feline medicine and will always be passionate about feline health.
About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a teen. In my opinion they are all the "goodest" boys and girls and deserve the best life possible. I know how difficult it can be to trust a beloved pet with a stranger but you can rest assured that your baby is in the best hands! I have a pretty open schedule and would love nothing more than to devote some of my free time to your pets! Rest assured that your pet will be provided with undivided attention and receive the best of care. I care for your pet to the full extent of your instructions. Have a list that's longer than most books? That's fine, mine is probably longer when I have to leave my babies in someone else's care. Carefree and no list at all? That works too, I can go with the flow. Whatever instructions you give, no matter how silly you might think they are, I will follow to keep your pet in the routine they already know.
About: I love taking care of animals its been a passion since I was little :) i have always had animals inside and outside. I love having animals around it just makes life better in so many ways! I am a stay at home mom i will have plenty of time for your furbaby and lots of love!! All the Cuddles and walks a dog could dream for! I have a fenced in yard and animals that love guest! Your baby will never be bored or lonely! Lots of fun around here and never a dull moment.
“I'm so grateful that we were able to book Karra for a Sunday morning to check on our four cats and administer heart meds to one of them. We had an electronic door lock/keypad that stopped working unexpectedly while we were away and she handled it perfectly even when I wasn't available to respond to her immediately. She made sure to keep our front door locked and keep our back door unlocked (which is great because I'm not 100% sure we had a key on us at the time), and offered to go back to the house if we wanted her to do something different with the doors. I would book her again!”

“Caitlin was great. My old sick cat needed daily medication which is difficult to get her to take. Caitlin made sure she got it every day. She sent me photos and messages every day. Highly recommend her.”
About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life. I currently have a yellow lab named Blondie, a pit bull named Ronan, and two cats named River and Phoenix. They are my babies! I love working with animals and being around them. I'm very patient and easy to talk to! Your fur babies will always be loved with me! I have done many Rover jobs and ready to continue! Contact me for any questions or concerns. Thank you and I hope you have a wonderful and blessed day. I have a full time job currently but I’m pretty flexible on the weekends! On Fridays, anytime after 1pm and usually anytime on the weekends. Having dogs and cats of my own, I understand how to take care of them and watch out for odd behavior. I am patient and careful with any animal and my surroundings.
About: Potty breaks Walking I’m home care Out home care I can do anything for your pet and you won’t regret that you picked me for the job. Big or small and I can do the job, does it woof or meow? It doesn’t matter because I can do it. I have no allergies with any animal and I’m a very big animal lover of all sorts. I’m available all through the week and weekend and even some holidays. I had 2 little pups of my own before I moved to Lubbock but sadly we had to give them away because we were staying with a friend. I believe that your dogs and cats will fill the hole in my heart. Thank you so much for your time.

“Dena has a love for dogs i wish more people had! She took care of my puppy for his first visit to somewhere else besides his home and i couldn’t have asked for a better outcome. She should definitely be considered for any dog as a sitter”

The dogs have free roam of the house. There is always food and water down. Treats given daily. I also have a doggy door. I have a fenced in yard but they will only go out to potty then come in and have free roam of my house. I free feed so there is always food and water down in 2 different heights. I give treats in the am. They are a 5 ingredient all natural treat. I have toys but if ur fur baby has a special one they like to play with or sleep with, u are more than welcome to bring it.
“Amanda and her daughter were great! They took in my standard poodle and let her play. They sent me photos of her all day long. She behaved very well when I came to pick her up and they ask gave her a bath. I will be using them again in the future.”

“Bailee was great with my pug, Plum! We just moved to Tyler, and the move has been a little stressful for our lil social butterfly, so it was great for her to have a fun, relaxing play day with Bailee and her dogs. I could tell Plum had a great time and know Bailee gave her lots of attention and care - we'll be booking a daycare day again soon!”

“Shelby is a wonderful pet sitter who took great care of our furry girl. We had a great first impression when we met her. Amora is usually shy and doesn’t interact much, but I was surprised when I heard that she was playing with Shelby’s kids. I’m so glad that Amora’s first experience went smoothly. I will definitely use her services again.”

“This was our first day care date with Jerry. We have a trip upcoming and have booked Jerry to dog-sit. We wanted to have a test run before. It worked out fantastic. Bailey our dog did very well and loves to sit on Jerry's chair. 😊”

About: Hi! I’ve always had pets and love to spend my time with all kinds of dogs. I have a flexible work schedule so I spend most of my days at home and would love to have some pups to keep me company! I work most weekdays, but I make sure my dogs get plenty of outside time when I’m home. I also have a fenced in yard perfect for playing fetch and getting the zoomies out. I care for them as if they were my own. My dogs are friendly and love having new play mates! My cats are also good with dogs while giving them space!

About: Hi! My name is Lexie. i have two dogs, Astro and Stark. Those two boys are what got me into the pet care environment. Searching for a sitter or dog walker for them made me realize I would only want the BEST for my two boys. So I decided to become one myself. I have years of experience with dogs, cats, birds, horses, goats, chickens, exotics including hedgehogs, snakes, guinea pigs, fish and many more. I am a freelance dog trainer and groom my own dogs so if your pooch needs a little spiffy up while you’re gone don’t worry! I worked in animal rescue for many years and now do dog sports so I have experience with nearly every breed of dog imaginable. My own dogs are very high energy and need both mental stimulation and physical exercise so that’s why I also offer dog walking services. Contact me if you have ANY questions or want to meet me before booking an appointment. I’ll be happy to oblige. I am usually at home caring for the dogs! I am a dog trainer so I am available to play with the dogs and let them out most of the day. I have 1 acre fenced in. If your dog is an escape artist like mine, they will be leash walked or supervised in the backyard. I do utilize a crate if you provide it. If you prefer your dog to not be in one that is respected!
About: I have had dogs my entire life. I have watched other peoples dogs for years! We have a huge fenced back yard that’s perfect for fur babies! I am recently retired, so I have plenty of time at home to care for your pets. They will get a lot of attention and play time I have 2 friendly dogs if my own and a huge fence in and very secure back yard. Also Senior dogs and puppies are welcome
“Brittany is an exceptional pet sitter! She took wonderful care of our beloved Easter, and we couldn't be more grateful. Easter received the utmost attention and affection, and we received regular updates and photos to put our minds at ease. We highly recommend Brittany to anyone seeking trustworthy and compassionate pet care. She's a true gem!”

About: Howdy fellow pet lovers. I’m Keith, and along with my daughter, Karsyn, we just launched a friendly dog service called Haywood’s Happy Hounds. I’m a husband and father of four beautiful children. I have been the owner of two Rottweilers and a Yorkie in the past, but now, we are raising an energetic, sparky Chiweenie named Krew LeBark Haywood and a friendly, playful GoldenDoodle named Reese L. Haywood alongside our children. My youngest daughter really took a liking to Krew when we got him as a wee pup, so she’s going along on this doggie journey with me. Don’t want to be in the rain? We’ll walk your GreatDane! Late starting supper? We’ll gladly walk your pupper. Need someone to puppy sit? We’ll watch your lovely, fluffy ShihTzu. Friendly dog, but no one to watch her? I’ll come sit your boxer! Whatever your doggie needs, our Daddy&Daughter tandem can provide it, indeed! Rain, sleet, snow or hail, we offer our services like the postal mail! We’ll treat your furry friends like one of our own and return them happier than when they arrived. I’m available most days and weekends for sitting. Just contact us and let us know when you’d need our friendly services. We’re looking forward to it. We have a nice sized, fenced yard, where our own dogs AND children love roaming around and playing in. I’m sure your pups will too.
About: I've had dogs for 16 years. Dogs are my passion and always will be. I rescue, foster and am working towards opening my own non-profit to save as many of these babies as I can. I'd love to take care of your dog-children, and I will love them as my own as long as they're with me! I also provide overnights as I understand a lot of people are more comfortable with their dogs being in their own home. I just quit my full time job to focus more on fostering and rescue, so I'm fully flexible! I can take any dog big or small. I have a fenced in yard, crates, and plenty of dog friends ranging all sizes. Depending on your dogs needs we can accommodate any situation.
About: I have loved dogs and have taken care of them for various friends for many years. What sets me apart is that I treat them like you would treat them or better. I’m trying to make this my full time job. I really love dogs and cats and all kinds of animals that people have in their homes. I would keep your dog on a leash and close to me because unfortunately I do not have a fenced yard. They are free to roam in my home.
About: I have been a military working dog Handler and trainer for 12yrs. I worked in special forces and have a robust amount of experience with the care, upkeep and training of dogs.

About: When I was younger we had 3 dogs, they were my best girls! Over the years we had rescued 8 cats, one of our cats may have some autism but she is so gentle and just needed some love. The trick is to let them come to you so they see you as a safe space! I currently work part-time but I am not working as much this summer, I may have a few softball lessons since I play college softball. My morning and afternoons are mainly free, in the afternoon is when I workout but I am very flexible! We used to have a fenced in area in our backyard for our dogs and a pool deck (no pool) but had to tear down our deck and now we have a beautiful grassy green area with lots of plants! Our home inside is very pet friendly we have cat and dog toys as well as cat and dog food/treats!
“We were very pleased with Hannah and our first time using Rover! She handled our big bully like a pro!! Hate that it rained so much they didn’t get to enjoy the dog park!”

About: Experience: I have taken care of dogs, large and small, since I was born. I have experience from training puppies, all the way to tempermented and incontinent seniors. I also have experience with cats, beta fish, hamsters, hermit crabs, rabbits, goats, horses, cows, deer, and donkey. I am willing to walk, feed, brush your pets, and more. For pets I don't have prior experience with, I am a quick learner, good at following instructions, and always eager to branch out. (I will not work with snakes.) Let me know what your needs are, and I'll be more than happy to work with you. Schedule: I do work full time, Monday-Friday with occasional On-Call weekends. My schedule is flexible where it does not always have to be 8a-5p. My monthly schedule is half travel (near Longview), and half work-from-home. While house sitting, as long as I can connect to your wifi, I might not have to leave your pet at all. The dates/times I travel change each month, and I try to keep my Rover Calendar updated accordingly. View my rover calendar for my availability. Let me know what dates and times you're needing help, and I'll do my best to accommodate. Services: •House Sitting includes me staying at your house over night with my car in the driveway so no one thinks the house is empty while you're away. I will feed, play, and keep your pets on their normal routine as much as possible. I will also bring in your mail, water your plants, and take out the trash if it gets full. •Drop In Visits are great if you have something come up that day where you'll be gone for a longer time than usual. For example, if you're going to be gone for 12hrs, and you know your pet can't hold it more than 8hrs, I can drop in to check on them, let them out to potty, feed them, etc. This is a 30min visit. If you need more than one drop in per day, it's cheaper to book me over night, as it also saves me gas money. •View the Services Tab for pricing. •For out of town families, over 15 miles away from me, I will be charging a one time fee of $30 to accommodate for gas. (NOT a daily charge.) Depending on the location and amount of nights, I will also need to talk to you about my personal pets. I would love to discuss this in further detail at our initial meet-and-greet. Safety/Trust: Unfortunately I am unable to host cats, dogs, and other larger animals in my home. Living in a rental, it's too much of a liability. Plus, it puts my own pets at potential risk of a safety breech. However I am willing to keep your beta fish or other small animals here as needed while you are out of town. As far as tending to your fur babies in the safety of your home, where they are the most familiar and comfortable, I am trustworthy and a quick learner; I am great at following all safety instructions custom to your space and pets needs. (Ex. Don't leave the gate open, keep them on a leash when outside, etc.)

About: I've taken care of my mom's cats and dog everytime she's out on buisness trips, I have a cat of my own! I've pet sit before for family friends. I love animals so very much! I currently am unemployed and in homeschool so I'm pretty much always available! I take care of my family's animals frequently and can fit pretty much anything into my schedule. I have a fenced yard and a big dog so I may not be able to provide boarding, I have 4 cats aswell, but they're all very sweet. I can feed daily, frequent potty breaks and play with the babies as much as they'd like!

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with 6 years of hands-on pet sitting experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs. I’m also a proud dog mom to my three babies: Koda (Standard Goldendoodle), Bentley (Mini Goldendoodle), and Roxy (Mini Aussie), so caring for dogs is truly part of my everyday life. What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give every pet as if they were my own. I’m experienced with maintaining feeding schedules, administering basic medications, handling high-energy dogs, and making anxious pets feel comfortable and safe. I understand how important communication and trust are, so I always keep owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. My goal is to create a fun, loving, and stress-free environment where your pet feels happy, safe, and cared for while you’re away! 🐶✨ Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I’m home the majority of the day. I typically work out in the mornings, which allows me to dedicate the rest of my day to giving pets plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, walks, and companionship. I occasionally go to dinner with family or friends, but overall I have a very flexible schedule and enjoy making pets a priority in my day-to-day life. I care for every pet as if they were my own by creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment. In my home, pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, exercise, and a comfortable space to relax. I’m very mindful of maintaining their normal routines, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any special instructions from the owner. In a client’s home, I make sure pets feel comfortable by keeping their routine as consistent as possible while also respecting and caring for the home. I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so owners can feel confident their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while they’re away.

About: I have life long years of experience with dog care :) I love all dogs as they were my own and am willing to give whatever extra care they need ! I have a free schedule on weeknights and weekends. Mon-Fridays. I can service through drop-ins, walks or one-night stays if needed...I can do weekends for a small extra fee Currently I cannot board! I am open to house sitting weekends or weeknight stays. I am available for frequent drop-ins as needed. I am very respectful of my client's spaces and will leave it exactly how I found it. I'll even gladly take the trash out :)
About: Former zookeeper with 12 years of experience. I grew up riding horses before I could walk and having a variety of dogs and reptiles and birds as pets. I am comfortable taking care of most domestic, exotic and farm animals. I can give oral and basic injectable medications. I am currently working part time remotely so my schedule is very wide open. I am generally a night owl but I enjoy early morning walks as well. I currently live in an rv park close to Lake Cherokee.
