“5 stars for Margot!!! Our young basset hound Layla had the pleasure of spending several nights with Margot. It was Layla's first time ever staying away from us and it was truly a wonderful experience for Layla and my husband and I. She was very well taken care of. Margot's accommodations are just fantastic, she is exceptional, she loves dogs and her interactions with them is heartfelt. Layla felt right at home and we did not worry at all. Margot would send us pics throughout the day and a brief post about how Layla was getting along and her adventure of the day. Will definitely return!! Frances/Port Isabel, TX”
“Aron was great!!!! My girl Mona was well taken care of. Aron sent various pictures and I loved that he walked her during her stay. Five stars and would definitely book with him again.”
“We took a trip to South Padre Island and stayed at a condo that wasn’t pet friendly, so we found Alexis. She was great with our Bo. She sent daily pics of Bo, good mornings and good nights. We felt so comfortable because from the moment we were matched with her it was constant communication. The dropping off and picking up was quick and smooth. This was the first time Bo was left with a total stranger and he did very good, so that says a lot about how she cares about our pets. Thank you again, Alexis 💕”

“I was very nervous about leaving my 2 small rescue dogs who are very attached to me. But Alicia made me feel very confident with her kindness and love for her own animals. My dogs did fine, she sent me photos of them, and I was able to enjoy my trip away knowing they were in good hands!”
“Jessica was a great and accommodating host as we were in a rush to drop our dogs off on way to the airport and kind enough to allow a late night pick up when our return flight got in late. Our dogs seemed like they were happy and we will use her again! 🐾”

“THEY WERE SO AMAZING. Sent lot's of updates, photos, and videos. Even accommodated the fact that my flight was delayed causing me to miss my connection and was stuck in ATL overnight. Their dog is so playful and friendly which made my dog have the time of his life. They took amazing care of my dog and provided him with all his vitamins and any of his special needs were well monitored.”
“Brittany and Amber were terrific! They are close to BRO, so super convenient for drop offs, and they have enough room to keep visiting dogs separated from theirs (mine were pissy.). Brittany sent pictures and videos consistently and my Walter and Lilo got lots of attention and love. Came home 12 days later to happy puppers! Would use Brittany again in a heartbeat.”

When I picked him up he was looking even better than when I dropped him off and was settled into his new diet. Definitely recommend and would love to book with Samantha in the future.”
“Gabriela took very good care of my pup while I was away. She kept me updated throughout the weekend with pictures and updates on Theo. He also enjoyed his stay with her. I recommend booking with her when you need a dog sitter!!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience and genuine love for animals. I’ve had multiple dogs and cats my whole life, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of who I am. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I’m patient, attentive, and responsive to their individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for puppies who need extra attention, consistency, and basic training reinforcement, as well as senior pets who may require a slower pace, medication reminders, or gentle care. I’m very observant and make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Now that I’m away at college, I truly miss having animals around, so pet sitting is something that brings me joy in the meantime. I have a big heart for animals, and I treat every pet like they’re my own.
“Karla was amazing! She took care of our two cats, our playful 9-month-old kitten and 18-year-old senior cat, while we were in Europe for three weeks. I left detailed instructions, and she followed everything perfectly. We were kept updated with messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind. It was clear she genuinely cared about our cats and gave each of them the attention they needed. Knowing they were in such good hands made our trip so much less stressful. We’re thrilled to have found her and will definitely be booking her again for future trips. Highly recommended!”
About: As a cat owner myself, I understand the special care and patience that cats require. Whether I’m playing with a scrappy kitten or administering medicine to a senior kitty, I tailor the care to the mood of the cat trying to maintain a low stress environment.
“This was our first time using a sitter for our cat, so of course we were pretty nervous. When we met Pauline, we knew that Lulu would be in good hands. She fed our cat as expected, played with her daily, and followed our instructions. She is great at communicating and she truly wants to help in any way she can. So yeah, she was awesome!”

About: I may be new to rover, but I am not new to dog sitting! I have been watching dogs for over 10 years. I just moved to Washington in July and would love to have more dogs to watch! Message me with any questions and I’m happy to answer them. Currently, I am a stay at home, dog mom! My husband and I love spending time with dogs and feel capable to watch others dogs! I am looking to fill my time with more dog love! I have never felt that caring for a dog is a chore or a burden. I love getting to know each dogs personality, and giving them the care that they need. Growing up my family always had a dog and I was always the one that would walk and watch the neighborhoods dogs. I was a nanny for seven years while going to grad school and would often care for the families dogs during school vacations. My schedule is very open right now and I can confidently say that your dog will get a lot of attention, and it needs would be met. We live in a Laguna Vista that is in a wonderful community! Our home is dog friendly and caring for our dog and others dogs is a priority! While we do have a backyard, I do bring our pup for walks daily and do a lot of active play in the home. I do training a few times a day and believe that a positive reinforcement is the best form of training.
“Alicia truly loves pets and took great care of our precious Peanut. We are so grateful that she is available to help ease our nerves when we have to leave her behind. We recommend Alicia to any pet”

I have a big heart for animals, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. 🐾💛 Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine because I intentionally plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for. As a college student, I have structured class times, which allows me to create consistent morning, afternoon, and evening check-ins for walks, feeding, playtime, and any special care needs. I’m used to building my day around animals since I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. Whether it’s early morning walks, mid-day potty breaks, or evening cuddle time, I make sure pets receive attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. On weekends, I typically have even more flexibility, which allows for longer walks or extra playtime. Caring for pets isn’t something I squeeze in — it’s something I prioritize because I truly enjoy it. 🐾💛 When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their environment. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, medications, exercise routines, and any specific behavioral needs. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep everything clean and organized. I make sure pets stay on their normal routine to reduce stress while their owner is away. This includes walks, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of attention and affection. I also provide updates and photos so owners feel reassured. If caring for pets in my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with close supervision. I ensure they have a safe space to rest, regular potty breaks, structured playtime, and lots of companionship. Because I’ve had multiple dogs and cats my whole life, I’m very attentive to body language and behavior changes, especially for puppies or senior pets who may need extra care. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always aim to provide consistent, loving, and responsible care. 🐾💛

I decided to get Rover because I would like to earn some money to help with my school expenses & other things. I am currently 26 yrs old. I am a friendly and an easy going person. I would love and enjoy the opportunity to take care of your little fur friends and will do my absolute best of taking care of them. I love dogs and look forward to having fun with them! For dog walking & dog visit services, I am available early mornings to mid afternoons for both weekdays and weekends. I am excited to care of your pups! My dog Soda is an indoor dog but he really loves playing outside. When he wants to go outside, I walk him on his leash and playfully throw his ball for him to run, and take him to do his doggy business.
About: Hi there! I adopted my lab mix, Buddy, in 2019. I say we both rescued each other. I grew up on a horse farm and have always been a big animal lover — no matter the kind! Buddy is super friendly with both humans & dogs. I now live in a fenced in home and frequently go on walks & visit local dog parks. Feel free to message me about your preference, and we can get started! I work full-time M-F, fully remote. I have plenty of time during the day & after work to help out with whatever your pet may need. I have a big fenced in yard with plenty of space for your pet to exercise or stretch. I’m available to board your dog or cat, no matter the size or age. My dog loves everyone :)

“5 stars for Margot!!! Our young basset hound Layla had the pleasure of spending several nights with Margot. It was Layla's first time ever staying away from us and it was truly a wonderful experience for Layla and my husband and I. She was very well taken care of. Margot's accommodations are just fantastic, she is exceptional, she loves dogs and her interactions with them is heartfelt. Layla felt right at home and we did not worry at all. Margot would send us pics throughout the day and a brief post about how Layla was getting along and her adventure of the day. Will definitely return!! Frances/Port Isabel, TX”
“Aron was great!!!! My girl Mona was well taken care of. Aron sent various pictures and I loved that he walked her during her stay. Five stars and would definitely book with him again.”
“We took a trip to South Padre Island and stayed at a condo that wasn’t pet friendly, so we found Alexis. She was great with our Bo. She sent daily pics of Bo, good mornings and good nights. We felt so comfortable because from the moment we were matched with her it was constant communication. The dropping off and picking up was quick and smooth. This was the first time Bo was left with a total stranger and he did very good, so that says a lot about how she cares about our pets. Thank you again, Alexis 💕”
“Martie was wonderful! We left our 8yo lab with her for a long weekend, and he was well loved and looked after. We will definitely use her services again next time we go away!”
“Great sitter for my pet. Bo was constantly updating me by sending messages and pictures, and my pet loved it as he got to play and interact with his dogs. Overall I definitely recommend Bo as being your choice to trust your pets with.”
“I was very nervous about leaving my 2 small rescue dogs who are very attached to me. But Alicia made me feel very confident with her kindness and love for her own animals. My dogs did fine, she sent me photos of them, and I was able to enjoy my trip away knowing they were in good hands!”
“Jessica was a great and accommodating host as we were in a rush to drop our dogs off on way to the airport and kind enough to allow a late night pick up when our return flight got in late. Our dogs seemed like they were happy and we will use her again! 🐾”
“Alina was AMAZING! This was our first time leaving our fur baby with a sitter and it was a great experience! Alina sent us pictures and updates that eased my mind the entire time we were gone! Would recommend Alina and will use her again next time! A+++++++”
“Iysis is always professional, great at communicating, and very considerate of all pet parent needs! My pup loves the time she spends with Iysis, and leaving her in her care is always the best choice for me and my pup!”
About: Any breed any size is welcomed! Whether you’re looking for a safe place for your hairy child to stay while you’re out of town or you’re just looking to have a vacation from your fur baby, you’re always welcomed to board with me. Hello! My name is Frank Barcenas. I am 28 and live in an apartment located in Bayview, TX. I have 2 pets of my own 2 dogs that mean the world to me and are by my side every second of the day. Taking care of dogs is a passion more than anything. Interacting with different breeds and seeing their different personalities is very interesting to me. I have been experienced with caring for animals for 5+ years. I have taken care of animals ranging from reptiles all the way to donkeys and pigs. I have volunteered at multiple animal shelters in the valley and have worked at multiple kennels aswell. I enjoy every second of caring for the animals making sure they’re in a safe and lovable environment as if they were at home. I am experienced in clipping nails, bathings, giving medication, giving shots, and general training. Boarding at my apartment, you can expect that your pups will be cared for and given lots of love and attention. One of the biggest problems dogs have are experiencing extreme anxiety when being separated from their normal routine. Having plenty of toys and multiple distractions at my apartment will ensure that your pet baby has a smooth and wonderful experience when boarding. When boarding with me you can expect multiple photos and videos of your pets daily while boarding. Work a 9-5 job. Pups would be inside during the hot hours of the day with my wife and will have small time outside during peak heat hours. In the afternoon when the heat is not bad they will be able to be outside 3+ hours I have a fenced yard. 24/7 supervision of the pups. Away from any high traffic roads. I have 2 pups who do well with other dogs
“THEY WERE SO AMAZING. Sent lot's of updates, photos, and videos. Even accommodated the fact that my flight was delayed causing me to miss my connection and was stuck in ATL overnight. Their dog is so playful and friendly which made my dog have the time of his life. They took amazing care of my dog and provided him with all his vitamins and any of his special needs were well monitored.”
“Brittany and Amber were terrific! They are close to BRO, so super convenient for drop offs, and they have enough room to keep visiting dogs separated from theirs (mine were pissy.). Brittany sent pictures and videos consistently and my Walter and Lilo got lots of attention and love. Came home 12 days later to happy puppers! Would use Brittany again in a heartbeat.”
“We trusted Samantha with our dog and we are appreciative of the great care she provided him. It was our first time away from him and her daily pictures and comments during his stay reassured us that he was well. We will soon be glad to have him stay with her again .”
About: I have one dog myself. I love pets and will treat your fur babies like they are my own. I also have experience training 3 puppies in the past as well. I work from home, so I can attend to your fur babies most of the time throughout the day. I also enjoy going for walks on a daily basis. I have a fenced in yard with a lot of running space. I also have one dog who loves other pets, to keep them company.
“Very attentive and communicative!! She kept me updated with cute photos of my dog. I brought my dog with some newly diagnosed food allergies and newly switched food. When I picked him up he was looking even better than when I dropped him off and was settled into his new diet. Definitely recommend and would love to book with Samantha in the future.”
“Amazing with high-energy dogs! Our dog has endless energy and can sometimes be a handful, but Grace handled him like an absolute pro. She gave him plenty of exercise. Super communicative and professional. Thank you so much!☺️ highly recommend booking with her!!”
“I had a great experience with Claudia through Rover! She communicated really well and kept me updated with messages and pictures of my dog, Cecil. I was a little worried leaving him since he’s an older dog, but her experience with senior pets made me feel so much more comfortable. I could tell he was in good hands. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“He was AMAZIMG, I had a couple of inconveniences, and he was able to accommodate my babies. Thank you so much for keeping me posted, sending me pictures, and taking great care of my dogs. They had a blast playing with your babies and getting some walks and sun!!! Best dog sitter ever!!!!”
About: My family and friend's go-to dog sitter for over 10 years! I enjoy going for walks (even during the hot summer months). Happily will tire out your furry friends. I work from home most of the time and have flexible hours to accommodate multiple services. My wife and I were raising an OES recently, but she recently passed away due to surgery complications. We believe we treated her like a princess and would treat your pets the same way! I have a fenced backyard with plenty of space for your furry friends to run around and get tired. I will follow my client's instructions to the letter; rest assured that I will treat your pets as if they were part of my family.
