“This was our first time using Rover, and we were very happy we chose Jacquelyn and Todd to care for our girls! They kept us updated and sent pictures and both girls seemed very comfortable. If we are back in Waco and need care we would definitely use Jacqueline and Todd again!”
“My dogs were healthy, happy, and smelled so nice when I picked them up! Nicole took good care of them and even gave them treats for the road. Next time I need to board my dogs, I will be contacting Nicole!”
“10 out of 10 experience. Dustin sent multiple pictures and videos throughout the few days we’re on vacation. We never felt too far away or out of the loop from Roscoe(our dog). It was nice to also get a gauge prior to vacation to see how Roscoe would interact with them and their dogs as well via meet and greet! Roscoe came home bathed and even had a goodie bag. Thanks again Dustin!”
“My pug, Maggie, had a great time with Sarah and her family! Maggie stayed for a week while we were in vacation. I received regular updates and photos about how Maggie was doing. Maggie returned home well cared for and tired ? I will be using Sarah again whenever we go away!”
“Andrea was awesome! She sent us pictures and videos throughout pearl’s stay and accommodated for her! Our fur baby had a blast being with her. A weight has lifted from my shoulders knowing Pearl can stay with Andrea in the future and have an amazing time!”
“I could not have found a better sitter for Cleo. She was very good with my baby girl, and sent me pictures daily to let me know how well she was doing. I will definitely be using Starlet again. Thank you Starlet♥️”
“Celeste took amazing care of our pets, Nero and Moose, while we were out of town. This was our first experience traveling and leaving our pets in someone else's care, so naturally we were a little nervous. Celeste immediately put us at ease with her kindness, professionalism, and genuine love for animals. Our travel schedule ended up being somewhat uncertain, and she was incredibly flexible and understanding throughout the entire process. She was so easygoing and accommodating, which made a stressful situation much easier for us. Knowing our pets were in good hands gave us tremendous peace of mind. Nero and Moose were both well cared for, and it was clear that Celeste treated them with the same attention and affection she would if they were her own pets. We truly couldn't have asked for a better experience. When we visit Waco again, we will absolutely be booking with Celeste, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate, and high-quality pet care!”
“Amazing sitter, My Zoey is very needy. Her and her family welcomed my baby with open arms. I received beautiful pictures daily and of her walks. Made my vacation so much easier to enjoy. Will certainly use her again.”
About: Hello! My name is Yazmin and I’ve loved all 4-legged creatures since I could walk on my own two. Ever since I was little I have been surrounded by animals. From horses and goats on grandma’s farm to parakeets and dogs in my own backyard. I currently have 2 furry friends, one siberian husky who loves a dramatic flare and one yorkshire terrier who, although smaller, is just as mischevious. These pooches are family so I can only make sure that they are well taken care of when I’m gone, which is what all fur parents want, expect and deserve. I hope to provide that same love and care for your own furry friends. I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes but am currently limited to only caring for dogs that are 20 lbs max. I have experience with puppies as well so no pup left behind! Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Thank you and I hope you and your pooches have a paw-some day! 🐾 Although I work full time, I dedicate as much time as I can to my own pups and you can expect for me to do the same with yours. However, I am available full time for boarding most holidays and summers so your furry friends can be taken care of no matter the event. I live in a large home with lots of yard space to walk your pup! I have two dogs, one outdoor who has his own fenced in area and one indoor who has just as much love as I to give. If need be, I can accommodate the indoor space so that your pooch may remain separate from my indoor dog. Your dog deserves to feel welcome, safe and protected so please feel free to express any concerns you may have. Crate and bed must be provided but fear not, more than enough space is available to accommodate your pup!
“Dena did a great job with my Pepper! I live 3.4 miles from her and Pepper fell asleep on the way home. She sent me a couple pics and updates and she only had her for the day! Will definitely use her again!”
“Kayla is absolutely the sweetest. I went on vacation for a whole week and it was the first time I was away from my pup for that long. After our first meeting, I was 100% comfortable and knew my pup would feel right at home and loved at her home. Definitely recommend! Thank you Kayla! ❤️”

About: Growing up surrounded by animals, I was destined to pursue a career as a veterinary technician. Twenty years later, I've built a rich and varied experience, dividing my time between day and emergency practices. The day practices have given me a solid foundation in routine medical procedures, from drawing blood to conducting routine check-ups. In contrast, the emergency practices have taught me to think on my feet, remaining calm and focused in the face of urgency and uncertainty. Throughout my career, I've developed a special affinity for post-operative care, taking pride in helping animals recover from surgery and return to full health. I've also learned to recognize and address anxiety in animals, using a gentle and compassionate approach to alleviate their stress. Meanwhile, I've honed my technical skills, mastering the art of medication administration and injections with precision and care. Pursuing a PhD degree offers me the privilege of a highly flexible schedule. Unlike a traditional 9-to-5 job, my daily routine is not bound by specific hours. I can choose to work at times that suit me (and your fur babies) best. With a sprawling, fenced-in yard as their playground, my two energetic dogs are never short on adventure. As a fellow dog lover, I'm excited to offer pet care services that cater to your pet's individual needs. Whether you'd prefer me to care for your pet at my home, surrounded by my friendly dogs, or in the comfort of their own home, I'm happy to oblige. From crate-trained companions to free-spirited friends, I've got the experience and patience to make your pet feel at ease. My dogs, with their boundless energy and affectionate nature, are the perfect playmates for your furry friend.

About: I don’t just pet‑sit — I love on your animals like they’re part of my own little pack. From belly rubs to long walks and cozy snuggles, your fur babies get all the care, attention, and heart they deserve. Brachycephalic breed experience and understanding; cataract post-surgery care/boarding offered as well. Kittens/Puppies/Elder/Special Needs Animals Morning: I start the day with your cat — breakfast, fresh water, gentle snuggles, and a little playtime to ease into the day. I check in on their mood, energy level, and any special needs so the rest of the day stays centered around them. Midday: I’m home for the most of the day, keeping your cat company, offering enrichment, supervising any outdoor time they enjoy, and maintaining their routine. If your cat is comfortable and settled, I may step out for essential errands, always making sure their needs are fully met before I leave and right when I return. Afternoon: More focused attention — play sessions, quiet companionship, grooming if they enjoy it, or simply being nearby so they feel safe and supported. Their comfort guides the pace of the day. Evening: Dinner, cozy wind‑down time, and extra affection. I stay home to ensure they feel secure, relaxed, and cared for as they settle in for the night. A day in my care is all about your cat — snuggles when they want closeness, playful moments to spark joy, supervised outdoor time for safe exploring, gentle walks or calming car rides if they enjoy them, and a routine built entirely around their needs. Whether they’re nursing, growing, aging, or require special attention, I make sure every moment feels comforting, enriching, and full of love.

“What a treat my dogs had with the drop- in visits that Kayla made. She was very interactive and was playful with them, she even brought her kiddos out to join in the fun! My dogs loved the attention! I didn’t have to worry a thing! Don’t hesitate to reach out to Kayla, she is a terrific choice.”
“We are so grateful that we found Kayla to take care of our four kitties while we were on vacation. This was our first time using someone we did not know personally to take care of them, and she was wonderful. We will definitely use her services again!”
About: I have always had a special place in my heart for animals. It is our responsibility as humans to take the best care of them. Every dog is special and deserves to be attended to appropriately.

Since I work from home, your pet will enjoy constant supervision, regular potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day.

She loves coming with me and helps me feed the kitties and we always bring treats! She will play with your kitty and give gentle pets the whole time we are there to visit.
About: Reliable, active, and caring dog sitter who treats every pup like family.

My schedule is built around responsibility, consistency, and staying active, which makes pet care a natural fit. Whether it’s morning walks, playtime, feeding, or evening check-ins, I make sure every pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and care throughout the day.

Perfect for high energy dogs - McClanahan
“Dustin has been great with Louie both times he has been over for daycare! Louie always seems to have a wonderful time and is smiling in the pictures and when I pick him up. We will definitely be back. Thanks for the videos and pictures! They are very much appreciated and loved! 😀”
“Thank you for watching our baby, she was wore out on the ride home. We will definitely be in contact if we go back down to your area and highly recommend you to anyone we know looking for sitter around your area also.”
“Jeannette did an amazing job with our puppy! We were a little hesitant to leave our puppy with a sitter because he is only 3 months but Jeannette made us feel super comfortable and sent us a lot of pictures!! She was flexible and we would 10/10 recommend her!”
“Needed a last minute doggie day care and they were so great! So glad they had room and our girl looks to have had a fabulous time with her new friends. Would book again if we can bring her with us on another adventure to the Waco area. Got a lot of great pics of her playing too. Reassuring - and adorable! A nice gesture for sure.”
“Abbi is so intentional and caring with our dog! It has been a while since we tried a dog sitter because we needed someone who would understand our dog’s anxious tendencies and respond to her cues. I feel SO at peace leaving Ivy with Abbi!! :)”
About: My mother was a vet ❤️ I have loved on a variety of animals to include exotic pets and much more since a young kid. I’m retired and currently in progress of building a Rescue Ranch i have close to 40 outdoor animals currently. I live out in the country with plenty of room. If you prefer indoors sitting I am definitely willing to accommodate. I can vouch that your fur babies will be taken care of like they were my very own. I am retired and home all day. I am currently building a Rescue Ranch so my schedule is very flexible. The only days or hours not available are Sunday for Church. I allow most pets inside or out. I do have a fence in property, also plenty of pasture space for larger animals or grazing if needed.
“Andrea was great! It was so much more personal than a typical large boarding facility. She was sweet with the pups and even sent videos! You can tell she loves what she does :) We will definitely book again!”

About: I have been taking care of your pets for over 10 years. I have worked in everything from vet care to training so I have a unique look at the skills your pup needs to live a happy confident life. Our day starts at 6 am with a quick potty break before serving breakfast. From there we rotate playgroups and training throughout the day until 5 pm when dinner is served. Final potty breaks are typically around 8pm depending on the individual dogs needs. Puppies typically get a midnight potty break as needed. I have 2 large fenced in areas for monitored play groups. Dogs are never left unattended for any reason. Inside dogs are lounging with me or are in private kennels outfitted for their comfort and needs.

About: I have cared for pets and people for many years. I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits & chickens, and I dream of someday having my own homestead.

There is something so pure about the love of an animal. I have a daughter (3 years old now) who loves animals so much and gets so excited every time she gets to meet a doggie or kitty, so she truly loves coming along with me for these jobs!

I have worked in everything from vet care to training so I have a unique look at the skills your pup needs to live a happy confident life. Our day starts at 6 am with a quick potty break before serving breakfast. From there we rotate playgroups and training throughout the day until 5 pm when dinner is served. Final potty breaks are typically around 8pm depending on the individual dogs needs. Puppies typically get a midnight potty break as needed. I have 2 large fenced in areas for monitored play groups. Dogs are never left unattended for any reason. Inside dogs are lounging with me or are in private kennels outfitted for their comfort and needs.
“Delphi does a great job, is always super flexible with our time table and accommodates us. She does a great job with our pup! She sends pictures and communicates well. We will definitely book again in the future!”
About: My mother was a vet ❤️ I have loved on a variety of animals to include exotic pets and much more since a young kid. I’m retired and currently in progress of building a Rescue Ranch i have close to 40 outdoor animals currently. I live out in the country with plenty of room. If you prefer indoors sitting I am definitely willing to accommodate. I can vouch that your fur babies will be taken care of like they were my very own. I am retired and home all day. I am currently building a Rescue Ranch so my schedule is very flexible. The only days or hours not available are Sunday for Church. I allow most pets inside or out. I do have a fence in property, also plenty of pasture space for larger animals or grazing if needed.
About: I am a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet sitter who is new to Rover but not new to caring for dogs. I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. I also have experience administering medications and am comfortable following detailed feeding, medication, and care routines. My husband and I live on a farm with our 4-year-old female Standard Poodle, Maggie. She is friendly, well trained, and enjoys having other dogs around. Although our yard is not fenced, all dogs are closely supervised outdoors and taken on multiple leashed walks each day. Our property offers plenty of space for safe walks, exploring, and sniffing. I recently completed my PhD at Baylor University and bring responsibility, attention to detail, and reliability to everything I do. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I will treat your dog like part of our family while keeping you updated throughout their stay. I have cared for pets for friends, family, and others since high school, with more regular pet-sitting experience in recent years. Please note that dogs staying in our home must be comfortable using stairs. I work from home most days, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I am available throughout the day for regular potty breaks, companionship, feeding, medication, and plenty of attention. I already follow a consistent routine with my Standard Poodle, Maggie, including multiple leashed walks each day. Because we live on a farm, visiting dogs also have plenty of opportunities to walk, explore, and sniff while remaining safely supervised. I live in a cozy studio apartment above the garage on our farm, so the indoor space is modest, but dogs have plenty of opportunities for supervised outdoor time, walks, and exploring around the property. I follow each pet’s usual feeding, walking, medication, and sleep routine as closely as possible. I also provide regular photos and updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
