“Megan was great with our babies. Meeting her babies before being booked was awesome. Our last babysitter did not do that!! Will definitely use her again! Great communication. Thank you Megan!”
“Breanna and her husband did a wonderful job sitting for our Dax for the second time! They both were so communicative and sent lots of pictures! Dax got plenty of playtime while with Breanna!”
“Sydney took such great care of my two small dogs and my lab. They are a handful as they all have different personalities and she did awesome. She welcomed in to her home and gave them a big yard to play in and let them hang out with her and her family. I would definitely recommend Sydney to care for your pets. Great temperament with dogs!”
“I’m so grateful for you and your family! I don’t worry at all when I’m away. I know you are going to take good care of Edgar and even better I know he has a great time! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Only sitter we need!”
“Britnee was amazing with our little schnauzer. She sent pictures frequently and daily, which left us feeling comfortable knowing he was in good hands. He even looks happy in the photos! We are very thankful for her! She was great with our pet.”
“Rachel was absolutely fantastic with our dog, Hazel, while we were away for 5 days. From the beginning, she was kind, professional, and clearly experienced with dogs. She kept us updated with daily photos and messages, which gave us such peace of mind. Hazel looked so happy and comfortable in every update! When we picked her up, it was obvious she had been well cared for and loved. We’re so grateful to have found Rachel and will definitely be reaching out to her for future stays. Highly recommend!”
“My sweet girl Daisy is a paraplegic and requires extra care. Celeste took amazing care of her and made her feel at home. She sent pictures and updates everyday and made me feel comfortable being away from my girl. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone who needs someone to watch their pup!”
“This was my first time using rover.com and Max did not disappoint. He is very professional and I didn't have to worry about what our dogs were doing or if they were adjusting well while I was on vacation . I was updated regularly with pictures as well as what they were doing I highly recommend and will definitely reach out to Max again for future stays.”
“Our dogs have received such loving care and it is a whole family of love. These are two rescue dogs, both with some emotional insecurities, and they hav3 bonded, which shows that they sensed love and security. I would definitely go to you again!!”
“My pup, Archie, and I had a great meet-an-greet with Dawn. She took the time to let Archie wander through her lovely home and get to know the backyard (Archie's favorite place). We were both looking forward to Archie's scheduled visit. Unfortunately, my husband caught the flue and we had to cancel. Dawn was absolutely charming and understanding! She is so easy to communicate with answers text messages almost immediately. I'm looking forward to rescheduling.”
About: Animals have been a big part of my life for over 20 years. I currently have two dogs that I raised from puppies, so I understand the patience, consistency, and attention that great pet care requires. I treat every pet like family and always aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I currently work as a freelance software developer, so I have a flexible schedule with open availability for pet care. This gives me the ability to provide reliable, consistent care and be available for walks, drop-ins, and other pet care needs throughout the week. During walks and drop-ins, I prioritize safety by using secure leashing practices, monitoring the environment, and making sure pets have fresh water and plenty of attention. I also provide regular updates with photos so owners know their pets are being well cared for. My goal is to make each visit stress-free and enjoyable while treating every pet like my own.
“Mollie is an absolute gem! I have renamed her “the Dog Whisperer” as she has a special gift with dogs. She understands them and caters to their needs in a way no other pet sitter has. She will love and pamper your pet to ensure it feels comfortable while you are away. Mollie is honestly one of the best (if not the best) pet sitters we have ever encountered in several years of having people watch our dog(s). She will be watching our sweet pup again next month while we are away and we couldn’t be happier finding such a great Rover. She is reliable and communicates frequently assuring you how your pet is settling into their home away from home. Also, her dog is unbelievable. He is gentle and engaging but just to the level your dog is comfortable with. Our dog doesn’t love other dogs and did great with Chance. Chance and Mollie are a great team and will take the very best care of your pet! Highly recommend her. A+++++++++”
“Luke and Leia had another great stay with Karen. Thank you for watching them for us. We appreciate all the pictures and walks…. and the great care you take while they are with you.”
“Ashley was great! She sent several photos of my mini goldendoodle throughout the day and I could tell she was well taken care of and having a blast with her other dogs. Ashley was super responsive and made us feel comfortable, will definitely be rebooking!!!”
“Jackie was amazing! I had a family emergency and Jackie was able to watch Cooper last minute. I received multiple updates everyday. Great communication. I will be using Jackie again.”
“Loretta is fantastic! She was a real lifesaver when she agreed to keep my 3 pups last minute after my boarder ghosted me. I received a morning update with pictures that began my day great and seeing my pups happy was such a great feeling. I also received all their bedding, leashes w/ harnesses, and their bowls (cleaned❤️) back. Loretta truly turned a stressful situation into a calming one.”
“Our dog Astro was in great hands with Karynne! She spent quality time with him while we were away giving us the peace of mind that we needed while on vacation. He went on daily walks and had plenty of play time. She kept us updated daily with pictures and texts of how Astro was doing. We were so happy with her service and will be booking with her again!”
“Our dog had a great stay with Rebekah. She came home happy and healthy. Rebekah also sent lots of pictures, so we could see our dog while we were away. I would definitely use her again.”

“Shelby was great. I really appreciate that she was not fazed by Catalina’s medication or routine. Shelby was understanding of kitty nature and gave them their own time and space. They came back happy to be home but it was also evident that while I was away their routine had been taken care of and they had proper interactions.”
“My 2 year old cat Midnight warmed up to Taylor right away! She did an incredible job communicating. Midnight can be timid but they had incredible fun together. I'm sure Midnight is looking forward to seeing Taylor again. I haven't had to use a cat sitter before but it's definitely worth the happy pet and the peace of mind Taylor brought.”
“Diana was an excellent sitter to our two kitties. She arrived promptly, fed them wet and dry food, played with them, cleaned their litter and even brushed them for us. She even accommodated a last minute schedule change request. We truly felt like we left our kitties in good hands and she sent us plenty of pictures with each check-in. We will definitely be going back to Diana in the future.”
“Megan has babysat my critters a couple of times now, and she always does a great job. This time she went above and beyond when we found out I didn’t have enough food at the house. Being out of state, I had no way of getting her food, and she not only got them food but went out of her way to make sure they got exactly what they needed. She is fantastic! I’ll be using her for all of my trips, and I’d recommend Megan for anyone leaving town for the weekend or a long trip. She’s the best!”
About: I have ten years of pet sitting experience, a year of Kennel Tech experience, and have had pets of my own practically since birth. What can I say? I love animals! I have experience with puppies/kittens, elderly pets, and special needs animals, including diabetic and hearing/sight impaired animals. I am focused and pay attention to detail to ensure that your pet is taken care of the way they would if you were home. I have a regular daysitting client from 10am to 2pm every weekday, but I work from home, so I can be with your pet nearly 24/7 and ensure their full needs are met. Your pet will be cared for exactly the way you would if you were home! Instructions are meticulously followed and lots of love is given to ensure your fur baby is as comfortable and safe as possible.
About: Hi! I’m a reliable and detail-oriented pet sitter based in the Woodlake/Converse/Universal City area. I work full-time during the week, so I specialize in evening and weekend care, which is perfect for busy schedules or travel. I have my own dog and understand how important routine, safety, and consistency are. I’m comfortable with different temperaments and always take the time to make sure each pet feels secure and cared for. I offer: • evening drop-ins and walks • weekend check-ins (multiple visits per day if needed) • weekend pet sitting I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pet is comfortable and your routine is maintained as closely as possible. I have access to military bases- so I am capable of attending to pets on base! I’m especially available for last-minute weekend plans. I do my best to accommodate last-minute bookings when available. For house sitting, I appreciate at least 24 hours notice when possible so I can plan around my schedule and my own dog. I work fulltime during the week, so my availability is some evenings after 5pm during the weekdays, but flexible availability on the weekends. I tried reflecting that onto my Rover calendar- but please don't hesitate to reach out with questions regarding my availability. ***Please Note: I have military base access- for military clients as well! I do have a fenced in backyard and a custom dog door in my own place. For in home visits, I would ensure pets receive the appropriate amount of outside and potty time, playtime, attention, food, clean water, and additional care as required. I would follow instructions given by owners if dog walking is requested- as I know people have preferences for how their dog receives exercise. The same level of care is given to cats as well- of course their needs may differ. Any accidents or messes made by pets during my care, I will clean to the best of my abilities.
“I travel entensively for work and was in the middle of moving when I coordinated with Katie. She was very flexible and understanding even though I had a few problems with access for her that didn't get solved until about one day before I had to fly out of town. Katie was very communicative and shared lots of pictures and videos of Puddin. He was very happy with Katie's care. He looked surprised to see me when I got home from my trip! During one of the last visits, the apartment complex towed Katie's car, which was unexpected. She let me know what happened and how she dealt with it. I am reaching out to the rental company to find out how to avoid this in the future. Do not hesitate to use Katie's services. If the opportunity arises, I will definitely hire her again! She is Puddin approved!”
“Brianna was fantastic! She was very flexible and took great care of my cats while I was away on vacation! She took lots of photos and was very professional! I felt very relieved that my cats had someone taking good care of them. 10/10”
About: My family has had dogs almost my entire life. My mom thought I would become a veterinarian or a zoo keeper because I loved being around animals so much. As an adult, I have gained experience caring for several dogs simultaneously as a volunteer at animal shelters. Friends and family have relied on me to care for their fur-babies on many occasions. If necessary, I am able to administer special care for elderly dogs, and potty train puppies. My favorite part about dog sitting would of course be wet kisses, cuddling, and play time! I have been affiliated with Rover.com for several years with many satisfied pups! I work a regular job full-time as a veterinary nurse. I am completely devoted to caring for the pups in my charge before and after work. I'm a total home body on my off days. I treat your home and your fur-babies as if they were my own. I promise to adhere to their schedule as directed by the parents.
“Brianna was such a life saver. I know it can be overwhelming with my pit bulls but she handled everything so gracefully. One of my pups had an accident in her cage which is so unusual but Brianna went above and beyond to clean her and the cage out for me. I’m blessed to have had an amazing Rover helper. She is awesome! She adjusted to the pups so well. I’m sure they miss her already! Will definitely recommend her services!”
“Melisa came by my house everyday for 12 days to check on my kitty. I appreciated the daily report card and photos. I never felt anxious and knew my cat was in good hands! I will definitely use her again! Don't hesitate to give her a try.”
About: I love animals! I've worked and volunteered as a kennel tech. I'm experienced in bathing, administering medicine and dog walking. I am also experienced in nail trimming and will gladly do so upon request. I can also provide enrichment activities like a baby pool during the hot months or simple yet classic fun like a game of fetch. I also have two loving dogs at home so while your dog is here he/she will be getting lots of socialization and play time! I've always had pets growing up, they are apart of the family so I understand how important their care is while you are away. I'm home full time so my schedule is very flexible and you can reach me at any time to check in on the status of your pet or to add on extra services while they are in my care.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Kirby
“Megan took the best care of my little girl. She even continued her care after my baby broke her leg. Megan gave her the pain medication as needed and on schedule, and most importantly, I was put at ease with her texts and videos giving me updates confirming she was giving plenty of TLC. I will definitely ask Megan to watch my furbaby in the future!!!!”
“Debe was amazing! She was caring from the moment Codey and I met her at the door. She sent me some updates via photos and one video that kept me reassured the entire time I was away from my beloved pet. I definitely would use her services again and highly recommend her.”
About: Hi my name is Kayla, I’ve lived here in San Antonio for 8 years before that I lived in Laredo with a family of Pitbulls. Mom, dad, and all of their babies. I have had a lot of experience owning many different animals including dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, and turtles. I currently have a Pitbull named Pitlet, a Chiewennie named weenie and another weenie named Preicess. They are my entire world. Don’t hesitate to message me and ask any questions at any time I’m always available and :) I hope to meet your fur babies one day I’ve recently been let go from work meaning, I will be available for your fur babies when the sun comes up till it goes down. I have a routine when meeting other dogs with mine. Involves with meeting each other one on one with them alone. Work great for them🫶🏼
“Snowflake was well taken care of for the day while we got to explore the not so dog friendly parts of San Antonio. Breanna was very responsive, friendly, and flexible making it a great experience for us out of towners!”
“Cindy is so great to work with! She made both Archie and I feel comfortable right away. Her home is well fenced and dog friendly. I think Archie knew right away that she is a dog lover. :) We will definitely be returning. PS: She sent me an adorable photo of my pup enjoying his play day.”
“I am so beyond thankful I have found Melody to watch my pup. Pyper is a rescue pup and has some fears with new people and loud spaces. Before Melody, Pyper was terrified to go to sitters and leaving her was always a struggle. After day 2 of daycare with Melody, Pyper would run into her house, tail wagging, and get right to playing with her dogs. I cannot recommend her enough!”
“Jackie is our favorite sitter. Highly recommend!! She takes great care of our pups, and I appreciate the updates during their visit. I feel peace of mind knowing they're with her when they can't be with us ❤️”
“Katie, her wife, and their three four-legged assistants are such an amazing team! I can be a helicopter pawrent but I knew that my pup was in safe, knowledgeable, and loving hands off the bat. Katie sent photos throughout the service and my pup was having tons of fun all the way until pick-up. They have a large yard for the pups to sunbathe in and run around. We spoke at the end of the service and they gave me a run down of how everything went and I greatly appreciated that especially since it helps me get to know how my pup is while I’m away. Overall, my pup had a great time and I had a peace of mind while I was away from him. They are the sweetest humans and pups!”
About: I have cared for many animals at once. Big and small. Spastic and calm. Very young and very old. Although, no two pets are just the same so I will take the time to ensure all the effort is correctly put into caring for your pet's needs. It helps that I grew up on a farm and my Dad was an Animal Control Officer my whole life who constantly used everyday life as a learning opportunity. He taught me from a very young age how to have a meaningful bond with all animals through trust- a two way street. I am currently making time for pet care every day. I am flexible so just send me a chat to get started with your pet's care. My girl goes for a couple walks a day starting at 7 in the morning. She has lots of enriching and brain developing activities through the day and of course lots of play! I recently registered Roly-Poly, my girl in the pictures, as my therapy animal and started training her according to the US Service Animal standard. There is plenty of room to play inside, in the shaded yard, and a park within walking distance. Have any questions at all, just ask!
About: Hi there! I work from home and recently lost my soul dog to cancer. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and now I’d love to open my home and heart to your furry family members. Whether you’re out of town or working long hours, I’ll make sure your pup gets the love, attention, and playtime they deserve. I have a fully fenced yard that’s perfect for safe outdoor fun, and dogs are always welcome on the furniture because they’re family here! I also share my space with a friendly outdoor tortoise who enjoys soaking up the sun in the backyard. To help provide the best care for every guest, if you’d like your pup to enjoy a dedicated 30 minute walk in addition to their regular potty breaks and backyard playtime, I also offer walks for $10. I’d be honored to care for your pet and make them feel right at home while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! ❤️ I work from home, so pets fit perfectly into my day! We start with morning outdoor time, then lots of play breaks and cuddles throughout the day. I’m around for regular potty breaks, attention, and love your pets will feel right at home with me. In my home, pets are treated like family! They can relax on the furniture, play in the fenced yard, and get plenty of love and attention all day. When caring for pets in your home, I will try and follow your routine to keep them happy, comfortable, and stress-free.
“The host was absolutely wonderful—super friendly, warm, and easy to communicate with from the very first message. She made everything feel seamless and stress-free. Even with my dog Reese and her cats, there were no issues at all. I’d highly recommend her and would happily stay again! Thank you so much!”
About: I've been working with animals for almost 10 years. I was a veterinary technician in private practice and currently work at an animal shelter. I'm fear free certified and have a range of experience from healthy, medical needs, and seniors. I'm comfortable administering medications and providing medical care. I work well with scared and nervous pets and make sure their time is stress free as possible. I also have personal and professional experience with pocket pets and aquarium pets. I work full-time but I make sure to plan accordingly for your pets needs. I have an extra bedroom that they can stay in, if not comfortable having them around other pets. I also have a kennel if they need down time or like to have a safe space to decompress in. I have 3 days off during the week and those days will be filled with multiple walks, play sessions, and anything else that will make their stay comfortable. I have a fenced yard and my 3 dogs love playing and taking walks throughout the neighborhood. I have a separate room and/or a kennel for any pet that's not comfortable or needs additional time to decompress.

About: I have a lifelong passion for animals and grew up surrounded by dogs, which taught me the responsibility and patience required to be a great caregiver. My experience ranges from energetic small breeds to powerful large dogs, so I am comfortable and confident handling pets of all sizes. I also have a soft spot for senior dogs and understand the gentle touch and extra attention they often need to feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pet needs a high-energy walk to burn off steam or a calm presence to sit and play with them at home, I prioritize their safety and happiness above all else. I pride myself on being reliable and attentive to each dog’s unique personality and routine. I’m excited to provide your pets with the same love and care I’ve given my own throughout my life! I have a very pet-friendly schedule! I work from home, which allows me to provide your pet with constant companionship and potty breaks throughout the day. Your pet will rarely be alone. I am always up front about any doctors appointments that may overlap with booked days. And I am always communicative when I need to step away for any other reason. I try my best to stay put as I enjoy giving the most care and attention to your fur babies. Because I don’t currently have pets of my own, your pet becomes my sole priority and receives my 100% undivided attention. In your home, I focus on maintaining their established routine to keep them stress-free. Whether it’s high-energy walks and active play or simply hanging out in their space to provide a calm presence, I adapt to their vibe. I’m happy to offer a 'hands-on' approach for cuddlers or a hands-off approach for more independent pets, and I am always flexible with special accommodations to ensure they feel safe and cared for.
“I needed to get out for the day and saw Jenika. She watched Rico for the day. I felt comfortable leaving him with her after we had meet and greet the day before. Which I felt comfortable with. I would definitely leave him with her again.”
“Max is absolutely wonderful! He is super kind, super responsive and simply put, awesome! Our pup came back super happy from her time with him! He sent lots of pics of their day together so it made us feel closer to her :) We are SO HAPPY that we have found such a great person! He has a great set up for the doggos, he is attentive to individual needs and requests and we are confident that whenever we are away, our puppy will be loved and cared for! YAY!!!! Gracias, Max!!!! Y Benito y Camila y todos los new frens!!!”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life- dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, rats, hedgehogs, etc. Anyone who knows me knows I have such a big heart for animals and am truly amazed by them. I am currently in school to get my degree in biology to use to work at the San Antonio Zoo in animal conservation. I am trusted by all friends, family and coworkers to pet sit- I even have experience in administering medication to pets and experience in caring for senior animals. I believe all animals deserve love and respect no matter their size, and I promise to take care of your pet like my own. I currently work as a manager at a coffee shop, so I don’t mind getting up early or staying up late to take care of your pet. I am not on a fixed schedule, so week by week it may change but I will always have time to care for your pet. I am a very aware person, and I know how much pets are part of the family. I will ensure that no animal gets out and that their routine is accounted for at all times. I believe in making sure animals are well taken care of- physically and emotionally.
About: I’m a retired dog/cat groomer with 12 years of experience. During those 12 years of grooming I specialized in creating a safe, comfortable and trusting environment for all pets, specifically anxious and senior ones. Being around animals my entire life both personally and professionally has made animal behavior second nature to me. I hope to meet your pups and/or kitties! Other services: I offer bathing, brushing and nails for dogs under 25lbs (at clients home). Brushing is only available for dogs who are not matted, moderate compaction from double coated dogs is okay. Prices for bathing, brushing and nails are based on size, coat condition and temperaments. I have an 8 year old Aussie/Heeler mix and my family has 2 dogs (german shepherd and a poodle mix), chickens and geese that we all chip in to take care of. I provide care based on the pets needs but always provide safety and comfort. In order to provide the best care in your home I will ask several questions to know what your pets preferences are
About: I grew up on a small farm taking care of various animals and I have loved animals ever since. When I got my own home I got my first indoor pets and cherish them as part of the family. I’m a teacher who will be free most of the day starting in June. I prefer walking in the mornings before the sun gets to strong but I am free to do drop ins most of the day. Getting to know the individual personalities and needs of each pet is vital to giving proper care. Their unique personalities is what makes pets so fun.

I'm available anytime on weekends, after 12pm on Mondays & Wednesdays, before 12pm and after 3pm on Tuesdays & Thursdays, and anytime after 11am on Fridays. Your pet always comes first!

About: *Back on Rover after taking a little break* We have two dogs of our own, so our home is full of toys, cozy beds, and a laid-back vibe. We both work from home and love having extra pups to cuddle and care for! Our dogs—Lu (an 11-year-old Aussie/Lab mix) and Austen (a 3-year-old pit mix)—are relaxed, social, and non-aggressive. That said, if your dog isn’t dog-friendly, no worries, we’re happy to keep them separate. I have a dedicated training room, and the dogs are given shifts throughout the day for outdoor time, play, and rest. Everyone gets space to decompress without stress, while my dogs enjoy their naps. I’ve been a professional dog trainer for over 5 years and have worked with dogs my whole life. I’m confident handling all breeds and sizes, and your pup’s safety and well-being are always my top priority. Feel free to reach out with any questions or special requests, I’m happy to help! I work from home full-time, so I’m home and available most of the day! Dogs in my care get a balanced routine with plenty of playtime, outdoor breaks, and rest time throughout the day. I always keep an eye on the weather and adjust outside time based on safe temperatures, so everyone stays happy, healthy, and comfortable. Your pup will never feel rushed or ignored, they’re part of the daily rhythm here! Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or mine, I treat them like family. In client homes, I’m respectful, communicative, and always leave things just how I found them (plus one happy dog!). I love going on long walks or just hanging out with a pup who needs a potty break and some cuddles. At my house, things are really set up for daycare and boarding. The guest room is a cozy little doggy space - air-conditioned, comfy, and honestly kind of like a mini hotel. Dogs get a great mix of playtime, outside time, and rest, always with safety and comfort in mind.
“Megan was amazing. She was so patient with my dog and was so accommodating when my schedule changed last minute! We will definitely use her again. Thank you for loving our pup Megan!”
About: I have had pets all my life and love to be around animals, and they love to be around me! If given the opportunity to care for your pets I would treat them like my own. I have a flexible schedule and can likely accommodate your needs. I am free to pet sit overnight, come over for walks, and make multiple trips a day. In my home I do not use crates for the animals. They use the doggy-door to let themselves out during the day to use the restroom and I walk them in the morning and at night.
About: Hi! My name is Victoria, and caring for animals has always been something I’m deeply passionate about. I have over 5 years of hands-on experience working with both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I also have professional experience working at a doggy daycare, where I learned how to safely handle multiple dogs, understand animal behavior, maintain clean environments, and provide attentive care in fast-paced settings. In addition to daycare experience, I’ve fostered kittens and cared for animals with a variety of needs, including administering medications through pills, liquids, and injections. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, meal prep, litter box cleaning, accident clean-up, dog walking, enrichment activities, and trips to dog parks. I understand that every pet has their own personality, comfort level, and routine, and I always do my best to make them feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and needs patience, I’m happy to adapt to their needs. I know pets are family, so I’ll care for yours with the same love, attention, and respect I would want for my own. I also love keeping owners updated with messages and photos so you can feel reassured while you’re away! Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work part-time only 3 days a week and have a very flexible schedule outside of that, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. Because I don’t have many outside commitments, I’m able to be reliable, attentive, and flexible with visits, walks, feedings, playtime, medication schedules, and check-ins. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I make it a priority in my routine rather than just treating it like a job. I’m able to provide pets with lots of attention, companionship, and consistency throughout the day, and I always make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my main priority is to keep their routine as consistent, comfortable, and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk times, litter box cleaning, medication needs, and any special care routines each pet requires. For cats, I make sure their environment stays clean and calm by scooping litter boxes regularly, refreshing food and water, and giving them attention based on their personality—whether that means interactive play, gentle companionship, or simply respecting their space. I also monitor their behavior and wellbeing to make sure they’re eating, using the litter box normally, and staying comfortable while their owners are away. For dogs, I focus on maintaining their routine through regular walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and enrichment activities. I also make sure they are safe on walks, properly exercised based on their energy level, and given plenty of attention and affection. In every visit, I treat the home with respect, keep everything clean and organized, and provide updates with messages and photos so owners feel reassured. My goal is always to make pets feel secure in their own environment while giving owners peace of mind knowing their pets are being cared for with attention, patience, and love.
About: I’ve cared for dogs since middle school. My dogs, my family's dogs, and my friend's dogs. Large or small, young or senior, I’ve worked with them all. In my professional life, I’ve spent over 10 years delivering great experiences for customers, and I bring that same level of care and attention to both your pet and your overall experience. I’m a stay-at-home father who also works app-based contract jobs, which gives me flexibility throughout the day. I’m available from morning through night based on your pet’s needs. I also have a dog at home who regularly joins my child and me on walks around the neighborhood or at a local park. I have experience caring for pets both indoors and outdoors, and I adjust my care based on each dog’s environment and personality. Whether your pet prefers relaxing at home or staying active on walks and outings, I make sure they are safe, engaged, and well cared for. I take the time to understand their needs so they feel comfortable and happy.
About: Growing up my house looked like a zoo at some points having dogs, cats, birds, turtles, rabbits and more. I took on the role of caregiver to my furry and non furry friends from a young age, having been born with a love for animals. I mainly have experience working with the standard dog and cat, feeding, bathing, walking, and administering oral medications for both. Along with my personal experience I also have professional experience as a Kennel Technician for an animal clinic and boarding facility taking care of animals staying overnight. I have experience and am comfortable with working with all dog sizes and breeds, including elderly pups or young puppies. The same goes for cats any size, shape, breed, or age am I comfortable and confident in caring for your four legged friend. I currently am not working full time, so my schedule is very flexible in being able to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I am working towards finishing my Bachelors degree, so some classes are online leaving my schedule flexible. I understand leaving your baby in the care of someone else can be scary and nerve racking, however as a pet parent myself strive to create an environment that is safe and secure for both your fur baby and you. All animals deserve patience and gentleness as I extend my high standard of care onto any animal I encounter. I have lived my life as a vegan/vegetarian in dedication to not harming animals in my moral representation of my respect toward other living beings. I hope I can be given the opportunity to show respect and kindness to your fur baby.

“Megan was great with our babies. Meeting her babies before being booked was awesome. Our last babysitter did not do that!! Will definitely use her again! Great communication. Thank you Megan!”
“Breanna and her husband did a wonderful job sitting for our Dax for the second time! They both were so communicative and sent lots of pictures! Dax got plenty of playtime while with Breanna!”
“Sydney took such great care of my two small dogs and my lab. They are a handful as they all have different personalities and she did awesome. She welcomed in to her home and gave them a big yard to play in and let them hang out with her and her family. I would definitely recommend Sydney to care for your pets. Great temperament with dogs!”
“I’m so grateful for you and your family! I don’t worry at all when I’m away. I know you are going to take good care of Edgar and even better I know he has a great time! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Only sitter we need!”
“Britnee was amazing with our little schnauzer. She sent pictures frequently and daily, which left us feeling comfortable knowing he was in good hands. He even looks happy in the photos! We are very thankful for her! She was great with our pet.”
“Rachel was absolutely fantastic with our dog, Hazel, while we were away for 5 days. From the beginning, she was kind, professional, and clearly experienced with dogs. She kept us updated with daily photos and messages, which gave us such peace of mind. Hazel looked so happy and comfortable in every update! When we picked her up, it was obvious she had been well cared for and loved. We’re so grateful to have found Rachel and will definitely be reaching out to her for future stays. Highly recommend!”
“Our dogs have received such loving care and it is a whole family of love. These are two rescue dogs, both with some emotional insecurities, and they hav3 bonded, which shows that they sensed love and security. I would definitely go to you again!!”
“My pup, Archie, and I had a great meet-an-greet with Dawn. She took the time to let Archie wander through her lovely home and get to know the backyard (Archie's favorite place). We were both looking forward to Archie's scheduled visit. Unfortunately, my husband caught the flue and we had to cancel. Dawn was absolutely charming and understanding! She is so easy to communicate with answers text messages almost immediately. I'm looking forward to rescheduling.”
About: Animals have been a big part of my life for over 20 years. I currently have two dogs that I raised from puppies, so I understand the patience, consistency, and attention that great pet care requires. I treat every pet like family and always aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I currently work as a freelance software developer, so I have a flexible schedule with open availability for pet care. This gives me the ability to provide reliable, consistent care and be available for walks, drop-ins, and other pet care needs throughout the week. During walks and drop-ins, I prioritize safety by using secure leashing practices, monitoring the environment, and making sure pets have fresh water and plenty of attention. I also provide regular updates with photos so owners know their pets are being well cared for. My goal is to make each visit stress-free and enjoyable while treating every pet like my own.
“Mollie is an absolute gem! I have renamed her “the Dog Whisperer” as she has a special gift with dogs. She understands them and caters to their needs in a way no other pet sitter has. She will love and pamper your pet to ensure it feels comfortable while you are away. Mollie is honestly one of the best (if not the best) pet sitters we have ever encountered in several years of having people watch our dog(s). She will be watching our sweet pup again next month while we are away and we couldn’t be happier finding such a great Rover. She is reliable and communicates frequently assuring you how your pet is settling into their home away from home. Also, her dog is unbelievable. He is gentle and engaging but just to the level your dog is comfortable with. Our dog doesn’t love other dogs and did great with Chance. Chance and Mollie are a great team and will take the very best care of your pet! Highly recommend her. A+++++++++”
“Ashley was great! She sent several photos of my mini goldendoodle throughout the day and I could tell she was well taken care of and having a blast with her other dogs. Ashley was super responsive and made us feel comfortable, will definitely be rebooking!!!”
“Loretta is fantastic! She was a real lifesaver when she agreed to keep my 3 pups last minute after my boarder ghosted me. I received a morning update with pictures that began my day great and seeing my pups happy was such a great feeling. I also received all their bedding, leashes w/ harnesses, and their bowls (cleaned❤️) back. Loretta truly turned a stressful situation into a calming one.”
“Cindy is an amazing fur baby care taker! I will continue to use her as long as she allows me to. I received updates daily with pictures. I will recommend Cindy to everyone who needs a loving, caring fur baby caregiver!”
“We had a fantastic experience with Randi and Steven, who treated our dog as if she were their own. They provided us with regular updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely book with them again.”
“Daniela took such good care of my dog for a few days. She even dropped her off and my doggy was smiling! She kept me updated with pictures and video a few time a day everyday. Don’t let one bad review discourage you! My dog is spoiled rotten like any other dog that is loved. She loved my dog like her own! Will use her again.”
“Juan did an amazing job caring for Nova while I was away for five nights. First he had me bring her over to meet his dog Frenchie to make sure they would get along well. He was accommodating for her drop off and pick up, and sent frequent photos and video of Nova at play and walking. I was able to enjoy my trip assured she was being cared for by a loving family. I highly recommend Juan for your pet sitting needs.”
“Pamela can watch my baby anytime! While I was gone I barely had reception but whenever I got one, there were updates about Chase. Pics and comforting words so that I wouldn't worry too much. Chase came back happy to see us but not disengaged or traumatized. You can see she truly has a love for pets. Whenever I need a sitter, I'm looking for Pamela as my 1st option. Thank you so much for putting my family at ease.”
“Alana was super sweet and took great care of our Riley Roo!! She communicated with us in the morning and evening with cute pics of our pup and was very accommodating to our wishes. It’s clear she’s a dog lover through and through. Highly recommend her :)”
