“My pups loved their stay with Michaella. She is very friendly and kept me updated on how they were doing with photos and was always quick to respond. Couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter! :)”

“Awesome stay for our Koko. Ariel was very friendly and responsive from the get go. She made me feel at ease the whole time Koko was there. It seems like they treated her as part of their family. We will definitely be taking Koko there again!”
“We have three pups. All three are extremely needy. We work from home and do not leave them often. Wendy was fabulous and so patient with them. She sent pictures throughout the almost 5 days of keeping them with her. The pups had a great time and were well taken care of. If she’ll take them again we will definitely trust her again 110%”


“Breanna is a top notch dog caregiver. She watched my annoying little dog during my last trip and I experienced zero issues. Would definitely recommend her if you are looking for a responsible and friendly person to care for your pets!!”

“Maggs was nothing short of AMAZING. She took such good care of my dogs!! She updated me regularly with photos and videos. Both my pups enjoyed running around and playing outside with her labs! She does a great job on catering to each dogs needs. I highly recommend Maggs!”

“Steve and Randi were wonderful care takers of my dog. Twice a day they would send pictures and report how well my Coco and their Mika got along playing and sleeping on the bed together. Randi told me how sweet Coco was and she'd be welcome back any time. I was very pleased with their care and will definitely use them again.”

“Pamela took great care of my dogs and was very communicative throughout the stay, sending daily pictures and updates. She gave extra attention to my dog who is usually nervous on walks, which I really appreciated. I would definitely book with her again!”

“Alan and Lynn took great care of my beagle. He has a bad case of anxiety with strorms, and they went out of their way to keep him as calm as possible. They were wonderful and I'll be using them again if needed in the future.”

“We are so fortunate to have found Celeste on Rover. She was extremely accommodating after the sitter we previously booked had to cancel. She provided regular updates of our fur babies and when we picked them up the were both very happy and looked well cared for. I cannot recommend her enough!!”

“Everything was great ! I even think our dog found his second home. We were able to enjoy our weekend thanks to the care and updates we received from Kristen. We are so thankful to have met such a caring person and supportive family. I highly recommend.”

“I recently boarded my dog with Mrs. Loretta and I couldn't be happier with the experience. She was friendly, professional, and took great care of my furry child. Mrs. Loretta also provided regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend Mrs. Loretta for anyone in need of a reliable and trustworthy boarding service.”


“Had a great first experience boarding with Joshua! Our dogs got along well and she seemed to have a great time. Would definitely recommend to friends and book again!”

“I'd give more than 5 stars if I could!! Tammy was great! We are truly blessed to have met her and to have had her watch our fur babies. We were able to enjoy our time with our family without any worries. She kept us informed of all the fun they were having with pictures and videos. One less worry for us to think about the next time we have to go out of town. Thank you Tammy for all you did for us!”

“Sophia is so sweet and thoughtful! We will continue to book her for our pups! She is kind, cares about our dogs, follows our instructions super well, and communicates with us throughout the time she is with them.”


“I was a repeat client of Jennifer's when she lived in Iowa and I wanted to leave one final review. She was amazing and we were very sad to see her move. She would drop in on my two senior aged cats who take daily medication. She is very good adjusting the rates for cats and was available on short notice a couple times. She went out of her way (helped once when we ran out of a medication), took great photos, and gave me thorough updates. I would highly recommend for any sitting you might need!”

“Kara did an amazing job caring for my cat while I was away for 4 days. She kept food, water, and litter clean and fresh, and spent time entertaining and interacting with my cat during each visit. I especially appreciated the detailed updates and photos she sent, which gave me peace of mind while I was on vacation. I would definitely recommend Kara to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”


“Shelli, thank you for accepting a last minute request for a drop-in when I had a cancelation the last 2 days. It looks like Leo enjoyed his time with you as well. Im so glad it all worked out. I appreciate you very very much! Leo is also very thankful for the hugs and treats! I would definitely love to book you again in the near future. :)”

“Katriana is amazing! She came by before our trip to meet all the fur babies, see where everything was that is needed to take care of the babies and to reassure me that my babies were in good hands. I felts 100% comfortable leaving all my babies in her hands and the stress that I was feeling was eliminated after meeting her. Our fur babies were loved and taken care of while we were out of town. Katriana is tentative, respectful, reassuring, and loving. I would recommend her to everyone that is looking for a wonderful pet sitter because she goes above and beyond.”


“Hayley did a great job with the drop-in visits for our two pups. She sends great pics of them enjoying some outside time and scratches. She's was flexible with their schedule and great with our specific instructions. Would recommend and will use Hayley again.”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for cats and currently care for my male cat, Dachi, on my property every day. Through caring for him, I’ve learned the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding each cat’s unique personality and routine. I know that cats require a calm and attentive approach, especially when they are away from their owners or adjusting to a new environment. I make sure cats have a clean, comfortable, and low-stress environment with fresh food and water, regular litter box maintenance, attention to behavior changes, and affection or space depending on their comfort level. Whether a cat is playful and social or more independent and reserved, I adapt my care to fit their needs and help them feel safe and comfortable. I take pride in being dependable, observant, and caring, and I understand how important trust is when someone leaves their pet in another person’s care. My goal is always to provide reliable care and peace of mind while making sure your cat feels comfortable, relaxed, and well looked after.

“Samantha was such a great cat sitter! She was friendly and experienced and clearly took very good care of our cat. She communicated great and sent awesome pictures. Can’t wait to use her services again!!!”

“This was my first time I used Rover for my dogs. I was extremely pleased with the care and communication that Jenika provided my girls while I was away for the holidays. She made the whole experience reassuringly being so far from home. My dogs seem to really love to see Jenika and she was really great with them and would send detailed visits and photos. I could see from my camera’s the girls were having a great time. I would definitely book with Jenika again or refer her.”

About: I’m a Certified Professional Dog Trainer with a lifelong passion for animals. I started working with them at age 12 through 4-H, where I learned hands-on animal care and training. Over the years, I’ve gained experience not only with dogs, but also with cats, rabbits, chickens, guinea pigs, and other small mammals. My first real job at 15 was as a dog groomer, and I later worked as a veterinary assistant before moving into professional dog training, something I’ve now been doing for more than 25 years. Since May 2011, I’ve fostered more than 200 dogs and puppies, and three of my current dogs are “foster fails” who never left. I currently share my home with five dogs, three cats, two pigs, and about 75 chickens, though don’t worry, the chickens and pigs don’t actually live inside! Pet care is woven into my daily life, both personally and professionally. As a Certified Professional Dog Trainer, I spend much of my week working hands-on with clients and their dogs, teaching good manners, healthy habits, and strong communication between pets and their families. At home, my own crew keeps me busy and happy, I care for five dogs, three cats, two pigs, and a large flock of chickens. Feeding, training, enrichment, and health check-ins are part of my regular routine, and I genuinely enjoy it. Animal care isn’t something I squeeze in; it’s part of who I am and how I live every day. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine as closely as possible so their pets feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of bathroom breaks, enjoy playtime and enrichment, and receive any training or behavioral support the owner requests. I pay close attention to their individual personalities and needs, whether that’s extra exercise, quiet reassurance, or structured training practice. Because I’m a professional dog trainer, I naturally reinforce good manners and healthy habits during my visits. I also keep the home tidy, monitor the pets for any signs of stress or illness, and send regular updates so owners feel completely at ease while they’re away. My goal is always to make their pets feel cared for, safe, and loved, just like I do with my own animals at home.

“Kristen is so amazing! She is so caring, knowledgeable, and flexable when it comes to taking care of our puppy Atlas, we appreciate Kristen so much.

About: Please note that Rover retains a 20% service fee from each booking, so my rates are set to remain fair while still reflecting the level of care and attention I provide. I prioritize creating a safe, loving, and attentive environment for every pet, and I take great pride in the quality of care I deliver. I have extensive experience caring for a wide range of animals—including dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, and reptiles—since a young age. Over the years, family members and friends have consistently trusted me to feed, bathe, and walk their pets, which has helped me build a strong foundation in reliable and compassionate animal care. I do have two young daughters, ages 4 and 3. They are very well-behaved around animals and understand the importance of being gentle and respectful—such as not pulling on tails or ears. I also work from home as a nail technician and run a small coffee/food business, which allows me to be present throughout the day. Because of this, your pet will receive consistent supervision, attention, and plenty of playtime. I’m very flexible and happy to work with you to accommodate scheduling needs, including times and dates. I offer a variety of toys and a spacious backyard where pets can safely roam and play. I also provide high-quality treats, including 100% beef or chicken options, as well as organic peanut butter cookies made specifically for dogs. In addition, I provide eye, ear, and paw wipes to help keep your pet clean and comfortable during their stay.
About: Hello everyone! My name is Morgan! I am a stay at home mom of 5 active children. We’re an active family but I homeschool so my children are home with me all day.

Pet care would fit right into our daily routine. I have many hands that can help with pet care and ensure that your pet is very spoiled and well loved while in my home. We will not board more than 2 pets at a time. If the two pets are from different homes they will not be left in the same room with each other when we leave our home. Your pets safety while in our care is of utmost importance to me. I can crate your pet as needed or not. Take your pet on walks and make sure they are given plenty of attention and love during their stay in our home.

“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: Hi there, my name’s Trinity! I’ve lived with pets my entire life, including cats, dogs, and the gerbils that I researched months for before presenting my findings to my parents (they caved). Before earning my BA in Psychology, I studied animal science at TTU for two years in hopes to become a veterinarian. While my career has changed drastically, I still love spending time with animals and frequently volunteer with local animal shelters. I currently work two part-time jobs, one during weekday afternoons and the other on weekend mornings. My pets get their meals and walks before I leave for work. I am no stranger to a commute as a recent UTSA grad and as someone who is constantly driving all over town for work/volunteer opportunities. In fact, it gives me more time to listen to music in the car! I have an acre of land with a fenced in backyard with plenty of open space for your favorite child to run around. Our community is in a quiet country neighborhood, perfect for low-risk dog-walking.
About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up around dogs — and raising my own Doberman, Skyla and Chihuahua, Bunny — I truly can’t imagine life without them! Caring for dogs isn’t just my job, it’s something I genuinely love. Dog care is my full-time business, so I’m home throughout the week to make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I do not kennel dogs unless requested by the owner, but if your dog is crate-trained or prefers their own kennel setup, I’m happy to accommodate that in my living room space. We have a fully fenced yard for supervised play, exercise, and lots of tail wags. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns — I’m always happy to chat and make sure you feel confident leaving your pup in my care!

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.

They're never left alone for long periods of time. We have routine potty breaks, snack breaks, and walks! Vitamin D is great for us all.

I love to know my dog is being taken care of the best he can be while I’m gone, I’d love to do the same as a dog sitter/ walker. I am open to care for small, medium and large dogs. I am very excited to meet your fur babies. I have an open schedule to help accommodate any special needs a dog might have during the time I’d care for them. I am also very patient and could possibly teach your dog some tricks! Would love to help introduce enrichment as well! Please let me know your preferences and any allergies your pet may have at our meet and greet. 😊 Portion of proceeds go to local animal rescues 🐾 I am currently in a career transition and have an ample amount of free time to check in on your pets when needed. Would love to meet more local furbabies. I am used to keeping pets in designated areas, as my mom has indoor cats & I am aware some dogs are escape artists waiting on their next adventure.
About: I have 6 plus years of experience when it comes to animals! I’ve always had a genuine love for animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. 🐾🤍 I’m patient, dependable, and understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. I’m comfortable caring for puppies who need extra playtime and consistency, as well as senior dogs who may need a slower pace and a little extra attention. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine closely and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away! I work full-time during the week, but I still have plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available on weekends and can also care for pets on weekdays when I get off work. I love spending time with animals and enjoy giving them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and lots of love while their owners are away. I’m happy to work with each pet’s routine and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for! Whether pets are staying in my home or I’m caring for them in their home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of attention and cuddles. I also keep their space clean and make sure they get lots of love and companionship while their owners are away. I treat every pet like they’re my own! 🐾🤍

“My pups loved their stay with Michaella. She is very friendly and kept me updated on how they were doing with photos and was always quick to respond. Couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter! :)”

“Awesome stay for our Koko. Ariel was very friendly and responsive from the get go. She made me feel at ease the whole time Koko was there. It seems like they treated her as part of their family. We will definitely be taking Koko there again!”
“We have three pups. All three are extremely needy. We work from home and do not leave them often. Wendy was fabulous and so patient with them. She sent pictures throughout the almost 5 days of keeping them with her. The pups had a great time and were well taken care of. If she’ll take them again we will definitely trust her again 110%”

“Steve and Randi were wonderful care takers of my dog. Twice a day they would send pictures and report how well my Coco and their Mika got along playing and sleeping on the bed together. Randi told me how sweet Coco was and she'd be welcome back any time. I was very pleased with their care and will definitely use them again.”

Mrs. Loretta also provided regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend Mrs. Loretta for anyone in need of a reliable and trustworthy boarding service.”

“I'd give more than 5 stars if I could!! Tammy was great! We are truly blessed to have met her and to have had her watch our fur babies. We were able to enjoy our time with our family without any worries. She kept us informed of all the fun they were having with pictures and videos. One less worry for us to think about the next time we have to go out of town. Thank you Tammy for all you did for us!”

“Isabel did such an amazing job watching my little girl! Great communication and lots of fun pictures and videos that made me feel happy she was having fun while I was gone.”

“Amazing experience! Michael was fantastic with my dog, Niko! He was very attentive and made sure Niko had his daily walks and two meals a day. Michael spent time playing with him and kept me updated 2–3 times a day with texts and videos, which really put my mind at ease. Niko looked happy and well cared for the whole time. I’ll definitely be bringing Niko back to Michael again—highly recommend!”

“Dawn was great with our pups! We did a meet and greet before we left for our trip and felt very comfortable leaving our dogs with her. Our pups can be a handful sometimes, but Dawn was so good with them. We really appreciated the daily pics and updates while we were away on a trip. Would definitely recommend!”
