“We needed a last minute sitter for a week long vacation and a friend recommended Rover. Having never used Rover before, we were nervous about leaving our pup with a “stranger”. Lovanna was very understanding and even agreed to meet with us before finalizing the booking. She took great care of Ruby, picked her up from our house the day we left and when our flight home was pushed back she even brought her back home - which wasn’t the original plan. We are new to the area and really appreciated finding such a caring, understanding and flexible sitter on such short notice.”
“It was my first time with a sitter and I am certain that it could not have been better. Oleksandra was very responsive, attentive and took really good care of Zeus. He had company of her own dog as well. We got daily updates, pictures and it was clear he was well tended to! I highly recommend Oleksandra. Thank you Oleksandra 🙏”
“Robyn & Joshua were great! This was our first time booking with them and they took excellent care of both our dog and cat together. Their kids were very sweet to our pets and they provided lots of photos and daily updates. 100% would recommend!”
“We had the best experience with Rachel! I could tell that our dog was looked after and loved by her. I would definitely use her again and will be recommending her to everyone I know. Thank you Rachel!”
“Apollo stayed for a week and had a fantastic experience and was happy when I picked him up. Aedan sent helpful picture and video updates during his stay, and Apollo was happy and well-cared for.”
“Namita took absolutely wonderful care of Coda while I was traveling for the holiday break and I couldn’t be more appreciative! This was Coda’s first time being left with a sitter since her adoption so she was rightfully nervous and anxious, but Namita made her feel right at home and did everything to comfort and soothe her. I was provided with updates consistently every day which helped ease my own anxiety. Coda will definitely be paying Namita another visit, highly recommend! 😁”
“Clyde and Nancy took great care of our pup. Our pup doesn't do great with other dogs, and takes time to warm up to people. It was the perfect set up with Clyde and Nancy as they only took care of one pet at a time and really knew how to take care of dogs. They sent me regular updates and had me at ease when my pup had settled in with them. Will be contacting Clyde and Nancy again for any future needs!”
“William and Marichu are so very sweet and accommodating and have a beautiful home. I can tell my Bella really enjoyed her stay and was well cared for - which put me at ease to enjoy my vacation. My return flight home was several hours delayed and they were so kind and understanding. I highly recommend and will definitely work with them in the future!!”
“Our dog had a great time and it was clear he was well taken care of during his stay. Plenty of walks and felt like he had time with the family not locked up very much. Highly recommend.”
“She was awesome at sending pictures and keeping us updated. Very quick to respond to texts. She was very nice and Moose seemed to love his stay and playing with her dog. I will be using Kayla in the future.”
“This was the first time I boarded my dog with Maria. She and her family are just awesome! They loved, cared and treated my boy so good. Maria sent me the pictures of my boy and updated me of his well being daily which gave me a piece of mind while we were away. I would highly recommend her and will definitely choose her whenever I need to board my boy. I am so grateful that I found her. Thank you Maria 🙏”
“Paige was great! Kept us up to date about how our babies were doing and we could tell how much she cared about our dogs and making sure they were healthy and happy!”
“This was Rocco first time away from home at someone he didn’t know house in it started out pretty rocky. But Yaldelie was very patient with him in she sent lots of pictures in keep me updated can’t think her enough. Yaldelia is highly recommended.”
“Margarita was very attentive to my dog’s needs. When I dropped off my fur baby, he had serious separation anxiety. Margarita kept me updated on his progress. I felt comfortable leaving my fur baby with Margarita because I could see that she genuinely cared. I will definitely choose Margarita the next time I need to board my fur baby.”
“Jessica was amazing. She communicated clearly and was flexible when my flight was delayed and I could not get my dog at his scheduled time. She’s very kind and my dog was well cared for.”
“From drop-off to pick up it was an all around great experience. Eric and his son provided top notch care for our doggy. Coco had plenty of space to run and play in his back yard. We appreciated the pictures he sent us while we were away and felt at ease knowing she was in good hands. We will definitely use his services in the future and will highly recommend to friends and family.”
“My dog Cookie is extremely attached to me, and I've been really anxious about leaving her with someone else (thought she might be too upset to handle being away and behave badly for the person watching her). Lisa did great helping Cookie feel confortable and took good care of her for the two days they were together, and Cookie was fine! M”
“We were so pleased with Jason! He sent us pictures of our dog who looked very happy and loved while he was boarded. His home and backyard are clean and a great set up for dogs. We will definitely use Jason again!”

“Aleona is such a great pet sitter! Our shy cate love her and feel very comfortable around her. Aleona goes above and beyond beyond and is a great communicator. Thanks Aleona!”
“Valerie is a really nice person & her huge love of animals is a big plus! From the initial meet & greet, our cats liked her and they’re typically shy towards strangers. I think they could tell she’s a true animal lover. She is very thorough and sent pics & updates to us while we were away. We felt very comfortable leaving our 2 cats to be checked on by her. Valerie is a wonderful pet sitter & we will definitely use her services again.”
“Ana was super responsive and reliable. She sent us pictures and gave us updates on any details worth noting. I will definitely book her again for future visits. My dogs loved the attention she gave them.”
“Lana took care and loved on our 2 cats for almost 2 weeks and we couldn’t ask for more of a sitter. We received multiple daily photos of the cats as well as photos of their litter boxes and food bowls. They were happy and content when we got home. Our “cat room” was swept and all litter trash and food cans were taken to our outside trash can. Lana went far beyond our expectations and would highly highly recommend her.”
About: I have a genuine love for caring for cats and have been around them from a young age. Over the years, I have taken in and cared for cats of different personalities and needs, which has given me a strong understanding of their behavior and routines. I have no allergies to cats and am comfortable providing daily care, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I am patient, attentive, and committed to making both cats and their owners feel comfortable and secure.
“Ashley was seriously the best with Kitty while I was out of town. She checked in, made sure Kitty was comfy, and kept me in the loop the whole time. Came home to a happy cat and zero stress on my end — 10/10 would trust her again!”
“Sarah was amazing. Got it all done handling our pride of kitties. So happy had someone to trust to take good care of them. Thanks Sarah will be using her for future care”
About: I’ve taken care of my weiner dog for 7 years now. I treat like she’s my real daughter and will take care of any furry animal the same. I have so much love I want to give to them! I have a lot of time that needs to be used up. I can do after 5pm on weekdays and ANY time during the weekends! On Mondays I can do earliest as 4pm! I walk a lot so if you need long walks for your energized dog, that is no problem! I also spend hours throwing the same toy and think of it as exercise for me AND the dog!
“Michael was wonderful and my girls loved spending time with him, the pictures started to make me question if they had a new favorite human haha. He was completely flexible when I changed my vacation dates just two days after confirming, and even on the last day of my booking when I came home early. I will absolutely look for Michael again during my next trip, he made it much easier to enjoy my time.”
“William and his wife are such kind and caring people. They really understand animals and their unique patterns and habits. My cat, Basil, is an interesting and funny cat with odd quirks and they made him feel so comfortable! I would absolutely recommend their home to anyone who wants their pet to be treated with special care!”
About: I’ve raised all kinds of pets from newborns, adopted, and elderly. They deserve attention and care just like humans and I strive to do just that. I work Sat-Tues 7a-5p and off during the week. I’m able to swap days with 48 hour notice. I look forward to caring for your fur baby! 🐾 I am not currently a pet parent so your animal(s) will have my full and undivided attention. I’m empathetic and know when I need a break, so do they!
“Stephen does an awesome job with communicating with us, and was very thorough in taking care of our cats. This is our second time booking with him and we will be sure to work with him again! Thanks so much Stephen!”
“Kayla watched our cats for the first time and I will definitely use her again. She truly loves cats and left me thorough notes and pics everyday. She was reliable and went above and beyond staying longer to give our younger cat the attention he craved. I felt confident that the cats were well cared for while we were out of town which provided much peace of mind. Thanks Kayla!!!”
“Elle is so attentive. Our cat was hidden and Elle asked about her favorite hiding spots and was able to put eyes on her… Dodo loves Elle. We’ve booked her three times and already have another stayed booked. Highly recommend!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter for Bella, Luna, and Charles. From the start, she was professional, attentive, and clearly cared deeply about my pets’ well-being—but what truly set her apart was how she handled an unexpected situation. One of my cats had a mishap while I was away, and she went completely above and beyond. She handled everything with such care, patience, and compassion, keeping me informed while also taking the initiative to make sure my pets were comfortable, clean, and safe. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing someone so capable and thoughtful was there. On top of that, Bella and Luna were happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved when I returned, and Charles was in great spirits too. It’s not easy to trust someone with your pets, but she made it effortless. I am incredibly grateful and would absolutely book her again without hesitation. Highly recommend!”
About: I have taken care of cats for others for about two years. I used to own a cat when I was little but don't anymore. I have done checks on cats for people which included changing litter boxes, filling up food and water bowls, and playing and loving their cats. I also have done overnight stays with cats before. I have dealt with cats that with try to bite and scratch me.
About: Hi, I’m Kaylee! I’m based in Rockwall and I offer drop-in visits and house sitting for cats, which means your kitty gets to stay exactly where they’re most comfortable: home. I’ll be honest, I’m primarily a dog person, but I have a genuine soft spot for cats and I’ve been around them my whole life. I know that every cat is completely different. Some want to be your best friend the second you walk in, and some need you to earn it. I read the room, respect their boundaries, and never force interaction, but I’m always ready with playtime and attention if they’re into it. I have a healthcare background and a graduate degree in nutrition, so detailed care instructions, medications, special diets, and specific routines are things I take seriously and follow to the letter. Your cat’s needs won’t get glossed over. For drop-ins I make sure food, water, litter, and any medications are handled, and I always stick around long enough to make sure they’re doing well before I leave. For house sitting, your home and your cat both get my full, unhurried attention. Expect photo updates so you can see for yourself that your independent little creature is thriving.
About: I’ve had my cat for almost a year, I also took care of cats/kittens my senior year at a vet clinic. I’ve learned how to love and care for every kind of cat! The scared, spicy, or super cuddly ones. I honestly love cats and the love they have to give!

“Margarita is AMAZING!! She is great with keeping me updated about Bruno throughout the day, I love getting picture and videos! I will definitely continue to use her. 10/10 Recommend.”
“Sandra sent us great pics throughout the day. He had friends to play with and socialize. He got his medicine and was fed during his stay. He was in good spirits when we picked up.”
About: I’ve loved and had pets my whole life! I have always had a hard time finding someone to help watch my own cats, so I figure I can help others that feel the same way! We currently have two kitties, Zoe Nugget and GirlCat (and yes, that’s her real name lol) . It’s been so fun to watch them interact with our daughter as she growsl. I swear she learned how to crawl by wanting to follow them around the house! Kitties are all so different and have special needs and personalities. Let me know how I can best help take care of your babes!! Meow! I was also foster mom for years to several dogs of all different breeds and ages! That experience made me understand why dogs are truly man's best friend and I quickly became a "foster failure" after adopting a deaf pitbull pup stole my heart forever! I even taught him sign language! Not having dogs now just gives me more time to help love on your pups! Let me know how I can provide them the best care for their specific needs! Woof woof! Update!!! Buddy, our two year old poodle, basically fell in our laps from God himself!! He was being mistreated and our friends were fostering him, but already had two large dogs and a toddler. I didn’t have any rover jobs booked at the time, so I offered to help watch him and we instantly fell in love! He’s the most gentle, sweet and calm dog I have EVER met! We just adopted him in the middle of February!! He does great with other dogs, cats, and kids! We’ve had no issues watching other rover pups and kitties since he joined the family!! I take pride in the fact that I do this job the way I would want someone to do it for me if I was going out of town or in need of a sitter! Thank you in advance for trusting me with your fur babes! I’m currently a stay at home mama, so I can be flexible to help take care of your pups and kitties whenever works best for their schedules! I can feed, give meds, brush, play and give all the pets and cuddles! I will treat them like they’re my own and follow any and all directions!
“I recently had the pleasure of utilizing the professional dog-sitting services provided by Iovanna B. From the moment I dropped off my dog, I was impressed by the level of care and attention they received. Iovanna's communication was prompt and informative, putting my mind at ease while I was away. Her professionalism and genuine love for animals were evident throughout the entire experience. I highly recommend Iovanna B's doggie sitting service to anyone seeking reliable and trustworthy care for their pet.”
About: I have owned dogs my entire life varying in all kinds of ages, breeds, and health issues. My dogs are my world and I will treat your dog as if they are my own. I have a flexible schedule being in real estate so that makes it easy for me to schedule these extra dog walkings or check in's for my neighbors. I personally have a dog door with a fenced yard for my two dogs and have spent a lot of time training them so I trust them with the dog door open when I leave the house. For other people's pets, I will of course follow their rules if they crate or leave them free roaming in the house.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I first learned to walk, from high-energy pups to mellow seniors. Whether your fur baby is a playful adventurer or a cozy couch potato, I tailor my care to their vibe. I treat every pet like my own—with love, patience, and way too many photos (you’ll get daily updates, promise 📸🐾). I offer in-home boarding in a calm, clean, dog-friendly space—think soft blankets, good energy, and lots of tail wags. If your dog is a little anxious, picky, or just needs that gentle feminine touch, you’ve found the right sitter. I have two sons that love dogs just as much as I do and I also have an old senior citizen grandpa named Hercules🐕. Don’t worry he sleeps all day and is impressed by food and food only! 😂 ✅I’m available for meet and greets always. ✅Special needs, shy and senior friendly! ✅Puppy friendly!! My vibe is grounded, nurturing, and detail-oriented—but also fun. I’ll send updates, stick to your dog’s routine, and make sure they feel totally loved while you're away. Let’s connect! Your pet deserves nothing less than intentional care from someone who adores what they do 💕 As a stay-at-home mom, my days naturally revolve around care, connection, and consistency—so adding pets into that rhythm feels seamless. I’m already tuned in to routines like morning walks, mealtimes, and keeping a calm, nurturing environment. Whether it’s letting a pup sunbathe while I sip coffee or sneaking in cuddles during nap time, animals easily become part of the flow. I love the energy they bring to the house—whether playful or peaceful—and I’m always present to notice what they need. Pets fit right into our home like family, and caring for them never feels like a chore—it’s just another way I get to show up with love and intention each day. When caring for pets, I focus on making them feel safe, loved, and right at home. I follow their routines closely—whether that’s specific feeding times, medications, or extra snuggles before bed. I have a secure, fully fenced-in yard where dogs can play, sniff, and stretch their legs freely under my supervision. Inside, they’ll find cozy spaces to relax and lots of attention throughout the day. I treat every pet like part of the family, tuning into their needs and making sure they’re comfortable, engaged, and always cared for with kindness and patience.
“Nubia was an amazing sitter! Our 5 month pup Zeke had so much fun staying with her. She let me know ahead of time what type of dogs would be staying while Zeke was there, how she would introduce them to Zeke, showed me where he would be playing, etc. I felt very comfortable and at ease that he was being taken care of with lots of love. She even let him sleep on her bed at night! She also sent lots of pictures and videos everyday beyond request. Highly recommend Nubia to anyone looking to board their little animal baby”
About: I have a deep love for animals and will ensure that your pets enjoy their stay!! 😁 It is an honor to serve you and to look after your pets. I am at home full time during the week so I am flexible to give the quality care and devotion that pets deserve. Feel free to ask about my schedule I have a nice fenced backyard and plenty of room indoors. I live in a quiet neighborhood that is perfect for walking dogs. There are parks close by as well.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have cared for them since I was a child. Growing up with dogs taught me how important patience, attention, and love are when caring for pets. I have experience taking care of dogs for family members and friends, including feeding, walking, playing, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I treat every pet like part of the family and always focus on providing a calm, caring, and dependable environment. Im a homemaker so my schedule is very flexible. I’am available any day of the week including weekends. Which ever time and day is more convenient for you. I have a fenced backyard and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I’ll make sure they have fun and enjoy their stay with us.
About: Hi! 🤗I am an animal person all the way! All my life, I've had dogs and cats as pets. Mom & I live in a log house that my dad built on 3 acres in McLendon Chisholm. So these house sits are my little stay-cations. :) On our farm we have 6 dogs, 3 cats & 28 goats that we rent out for goat yoga! I have a keen sense of intuition that assists me in meeting all your animals' & plants' requirements when you’re away. Animals always immediately feel at peace with me because I am a well balanced person emotionally and spiritually. I am a loyal, responsible Realtor that loves care-giving & world travel. I also foster animals with Dallas Animal Shelter & a local rescue. I will pamper your pets and love them like my own. When messaging me to meet and plan, please include the time of day you will be leaving & returning, any allergies your animals have, special requirements, & if they need to be crated when I’m not there. I don’t list boarding on my profile because I had a boarder dog almost kill my cat. But I may be open to bringing yours to my house if we all believe it will work. My pack is very accustomed to furry friend guests. Let’s make a play date! Pets find joy in being around humans who appreciate their companionship. I find that the animals in my life adapt to my schedule and a synchronicity is developed between us, even if it’s temporary for a housesit. I am open to interpreting the energy of the needs presented to me by pets and their humans. I am very free spirited and offer daily updates around 10:30AM each morning. However, some humans require more communication several times a day asking about their pets. I try to find a balance in enjoying the day and sending enough communication to the owners of all these sweet creatures! Sometimes when humans have cameras, I think they are watching us anytime they want, so there isn’t as much need for frequent updates.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old, this has ranged from small dogs to large dogs! I currently have 3 dogs myself, and they would love a temporary play mate! I have been working home for 10 years, and would love to watch over your sweet babies during my day! I have three minature dauchsunds at home who are happy to play! I have a large backyard that will allow you dog as much playtime and activity as they desire. I can also crate if needed with separate rooms to keep the dogs feeling safe if overwhelmed.
About: As a devoted dog owner for 12 years, I deeply understand the love, companionship, and joy our furry friends bring into our lives. After the passing of my beloved dog “Trouble” on August 6, 2023, I’ve found fulfillment in caring for other pets. I would be honored to walk, play with, and shower your pups with affection, ensuring they feel loved and cared for in your absence. I work from home full time and am a devoted mother to five children, all over the age of 8, who share my deep love for dogs. After losing our beloved family dog of 12 years in August 2023, we’ve felt a big void in our lives. We’re now in the process of adopting a new fur baby to bring that warmth back into our home. Caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine, and I truly look forward to giving your precious pets the love, attention, and companionship they deserve. I have a spacious, fully fenced backyard perfect for dogs to play safely. I will be the only person caring for pets during all bookings — no one else will assist with pet care. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.
About: I’ve loved animals ever since I was young. 2 years ago I got my veterinary assistant certification and I’ve recently worked in an emergency vet clinic and cared for all your lovely pets and would love to do so within my own home and/or the comfort of your pets. I love to do training walks, mental stimulation activities and of course lots of cuddling! I hope you see my desire in caring for your pet ! I am currently not working in person and would love to have tons of time to show care for you pets. I am currently available to do boarding in my own home, walks between 9am -3pm and drop ins! I have 6 acres of land that is completely fenced in and have a room just for dogs! I have 3 loving , friendly dogs that would love to have some new friends. They also have crates that could be used and a separate gated area if your pet is not so friendly with others!
About: My husband and I live in Rockwall, Texas with our pup and three kids. We are extreme pet lovers, and would love to take care of yours and love them like our own! We have a pup of our own, a yellow lab, who loves other dogs, and loves being active--so you can rest assured that your dog will be very well occupied with us. We have a 3 kids who also love dogs so much, and will love on your fur babies. We try to go to the dog park as often as we can, which is down the street from us. We're excited to watch your furry friends! I am a full time stay at home mom, so your animal will always be well attended to and love on. I am able to let them out into our fenced yard as often as they need and they will get lots of play time with our own dog and a dog park down the street from us. Our dog sleeps on a dog bed in our family, but we are able to accommodate whatever sleeping situation is needed for your animal (apart from them sleeping on our bed, which we don't allow :) ). We have a fenced yard, so know that your pup will be safe outside. The dog park is within walking distance of our neighborhood, and I will always take the animals on leash there until safely inside the park.

I feel so comfortable leaving them to her knowing they are taken care of like they’re their own babies. Ashley is always professional and flexible to my dogs’ needs. Love that they are so comfortable with her and her kids.”

About: I have a senior dog so he needs to be let out more often and I have to make sure he eats his food. I also have an aggressive dog but he loves our family and really dislikes other people so I have dealt with aggressive and sometimes timid dogs. I work at a restaurant but only 3-4 times a week so I am free whenever I am needed. I love dogs and animals I care for them like they are my own and give them lots of love so they don’t miss their owners to much when they are gone I make sure to do everything that I am told to do by the owners and also do it at the times that I am told to do it
About: Hi! My name is Ana, and I’m a lifelong animal lover who understands how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets. I treat every animal in my care like my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I have experience caring for dogs and cats. From energetic pups who love long walks and playtime, to independent cats who prefer a calm presence and gentle attention. I’m comfortable handling a variety of needs and routines. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow detailed instructions to keep your pets on their normal schedule. I know how hard it can be to leave them, so I prioritize communication and will always send updates and photos for peace of mind. My goal is simple: for you to feel confident and for your animals to feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for until you return home. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I’m a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to have a very flexible schedule and be available throughout the day. Because I don’t work a traditional 9–5 job, I’m able to provide consistent attention, regular potty breaks, feedings, and playtime. While my daily routine centers around my children, I do not have a rigid set schedule, which means I can easily accommodate drop-ins, and walks with advance notice. Your pets won’t be left alone for long stretches and will receive plenty of supervision, care, and affection. I’m happy to communicate about specific timing needs to make sure your pet’s routine stays as normal as possible. I provide detailed visit summaries so you always know exactly how your pet is doing while you’re away. After each visit, you’ll receive a thorough description of our time together, along with updates and photos for peace of mind. Each visit can include: • Walks tailored to your dog’s energy level • Playtime with their favorite toys • Potty breaks and routine check-ins • Fresh food and water as needed • Lots of love and attention My goal is to keep your pet’s routine consistent and make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and cared for every step of the way.

I have 6 acres of land that is completely fenced in and have a room just for dogs! I have 3 loving , friendly dogs that would love to have some new friends. They also have crates that could be used and a separate gated area if your pet is not so friendly with others!
About: I have owned dogs my entire life varying in all kinds of ages, breeds, and health issues. My dogs are my world and I will treat your dog as if they are my own. I have a flexible schedule being in real estate so that makes it easy for me to schedule these extra dog walkings or check in's for my neighbors. I personally have a dog door with a fenced yard for my two dogs and have spent a lot of time training them so I trust them with the dog door open when I leave the house. For other people's pets, I will of course follow their rules if they crate or leave them free roaming in the house.
About: Animals have always been a meaningful part of my life, not just a job or responsibility. What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my genuine connection with animals and my ability to understand their individual needs and personalities. I take the time to build trust, especially with pets who may be shy or anxious, and I care for every animal as if they were my own. I am attentive, patient, and reliable, and I understand how important it is for owners to feel confident and at ease while they’re away. My goal is to provide consistent, compassionate care that keeps pets happy and owners reassured. I am a senior in college with a lot of free time, I love to be around and care for animals so this is a good fit for me. When caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water at all times, receive plenty of attention and playtime, and get the rest they need. I pay close attention to their behavior and well-being, and I’m comfortable following specific instructions, including medication or special care needs. I also keep the home clean and secure, and I communicate regularly with owners to provide updates and peace of mind.
About: I have a deep love for animals and will ensure that your pets enjoy their stay!! 😁 It is an honor to serve you and to look after your pets. I am at home full time during the week so I am flexible to give the quality care and devotion that pets deserve. Feel free to ask about my schedule I have a nice fenced backyard and plenty of room indoors. I live in a quiet neighborhood that is perfect for walking dogs. There are parks close by as well.
“Michael is very helpful. He is aware of my dogs habits. He knew something was wrong with Bandit and I immediately booked an appointment with the vet. He also helped me clean up old moldy pumpkins.”
“Absolutely wonderful! She took Sugar out on a few walks while we were out of town and I felt absolutely safe having her come into my home. Sugar was well taken care of and I can’t wait to have her come back”
“Machinery was great with our pups! She was punctual and we had no issues with any of her visits. She was able to handle the energy of one dog and the strength of another with no problems. We will definitely be booking with her again in the near future and we highly recommend her to anyone else needs care for the fur babies.”
About: Hi! 🤗I am an animal person all the way! All my life, I've had dogs and cats as pets. Mom & I live in a log house that my dad built on 3 acres in McLendon Chisholm. So these house sits are my little stay-cations. :) On our farm we have 6 dogs, 3 cats & 28 goats that we rent out for goat yoga! I have a keen sense of intuition that assists me in meeting all your animals' & plants' requirements when you’re away. Animals always immediately feel at peace with me because I am a well balanced person emotionally and spiritually. I am a loyal, responsible Realtor that loves care-giving & world travel. I also foster animals with Dallas Animal Shelter & a local rescue. I will pamper your pets and love them like my own. When messaging me to meet and plan, please include the time of day you will be leaving & returning, any allergies your animals have, special requirements, & if they need to be crated when I’m not there. I don’t list boarding on my profile because I had a boarder dog almost kill my cat. But I may be open to bringing yours to my house if we all believe it will work. My pack is very accustomed to furry friend guests. Let’s make a play date! Pets find joy in being around humans who appreciate their companionship. I find that the animals in my life adapt to my schedule and a synchronicity is developed between us, even if it’s temporary for a housesit. I am open to interpreting the energy of the needs presented to me by pets and their humans. I am very free spirited and offer daily updates around 10:30AM each morning. However, some humans require more communication several times a day asking about their pets. I try to find a balance in enjoying the day and sending enough communication to the owners of all these sweet creatures! Sometimes when humans have cameras, I think they are watching us anytime they want, so there isn’t as much need for frequent updates.
About: What’s a home without furry friends! I’ve always had dogs in my home and currently have two fabulous rescues that I love and adore. I would love to help you out with your furry friends. Just let me know 😁 I am retired so I can be very flexible. I do have obligations on Wednesdays 10-6pm I have taken up Pickleball in my retirement so occasionally I do have commitments there but can be easily worked around. I’m sure we can work together to make our schedules work. I’m not offering daycare at this time but I do have a fully fenced yard with two happy dogs, ready if that at anytime becomes an option.
About: I’ve raised all kinds of pets from newborns, adopted, and elderly. They deserve attention and care just like humans and I strive to do just that. I work Sat-Tues 7a-5p and off during the week. I’m able to swap days with 48 hour notice. I look forward to caring for your fur baby! 🐾 I am not currently a pet parent so your animal(s) will have my full and undivided attention. I’m empathetic and know when I need a break, so do they!
About: I’ve had dogs and cats growing up my whole life. I love them all! I’m a hard worker who wants to make extra money for the family! I’m open for anytime I have in my profile of availability. Please let me know when you would need me and I’ll be there for you! I have one dog at home and he is fenced in and treated like a king! I love him so much and would do anything for him lol!
About: Hi, I’m Kaylee! I’m based in Rockwall and I live with four dogs, so I understand better than most what different personalities, energy levels, and quirks look like and I meet every pet exactly where they are. I have a background in healthcare and just finished my graduate degree in nutrition, so I’m not exaggerating when I say I take animal wellness seriously. I’m completely comfortable with medications, special feeding schedules, dietary needs, or any specific instructions you leave, following care protocols is genuinely second nature to me. I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life, and I know how much peace of mind matters when you hand your pet off to someone. My goal is always to send you home (or to work, or on your trip) feeling totally at ease. Walks are tailored to your dog’s energy and personality, not just a checkbox. Drop-ins are never rushed; I stay, I play, I make sure your pet feels loved. House sitting means your home and your pet both get my full attention and care. Expect photos, videos, and updates throughout every visit because you shouldn’t have to wonder how they’re doing. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I’m currently in a flexible period between positions, so I have a lot of availability right now, including weekends and most weekdays. I genuinely enjoy building relationships with regular clients and their pets, so don’t hesitate to reach out even if your needs are recurring or ongoing! Since I offer walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, I’m coming to your pet in their own space, which I think is one of the best things for an animal’s comfort and routine. I treat every client’s home with complete respect and care. I’m experienced with following detailed instructions, administering medications, and handling pets of varying temperaments. Your pet stays in their familiar environment, their routine stays intact, and you get someone with a healthcare background making sure everything runs smoothly while you’re away.
About: I have been around many animals throughout my whole life growing up. I enjoy getting to know every animal and understanding how they are emotionally. Pet care fits well into my daily routine because I recently graduated and have a lot of free time and a flexible schedule. I have experience caring for my own dog, including feeding, walking, playing, and making sure he feels comfortable and cared for. I enjoy being around dogs and giving them attention, so dog sitting is something I would be happy to make part of my daily routine. Whether at my place or yours, pet care is all about making them comfy and safe! At my home, I stick to their routine for feeding and walks, plus tons of playtime. If I'm at your place, I follow your lead, ensuring your pet feels secure and loved while you're away.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. Neighbors, family friends and family have relied on me to take care of their furry family members. As someone who has dogs of their own, I know how much your animals mean to you. I have had experience with puppies, all the way to older dogs. Although I work full-time, I still have plenty of time to care for your furry family members! I’m available for weekend drop-in visits and can stay in your home any day of the week to keep your pets comfortable and maintain their normal routine. I strive to make pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, provide plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, and ensure they always have a safe environment. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs and keep owners updated throughout my visits or stays.
About: I have over three years of hands-on pet care experience, caring for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities. My experience includes feeding, walking, cleaning up after pets, and ensuring that pets feel safe and comfortable while owners are away. I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time every day for walks, feeding schedules, and playtime. I’m available in the morning, afternoon, and evening! I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, preferences, and any special care instructions from their owner. I prioritize communication, safety, and trust. I also provide updates and check ins.

“We needed a last minute sitter for a week long vacation and a friend recommended Rover. Having never used Rover before, we were nervous about leaving our pup with a “stranger”. Lovanna was very understanding and even agreed to meet with us before finalizing the booking. She took great care of Ruby, picked her up from our house the day we left and when our flight home was pushed back she even brought her back home - which wasn’t the original plan. We are new to the area and really appreciated finding such a caring, understanding and flexible sitter on such short notice.”
“Apollo stayed for a week and had a fantastic experience and was happy when I picked him up. Aedan sent helpful picture and video updates during his stay, and Apollo was happy and well-cared for.”
“Namita took absolutely wonderful care of Coda while I was traveling for the holiday break and I couldn’t be more appreciative! This was Coda’s first time being left with a sitter since her adoption so she was rightfully nervous and anxious, but Namita made her feel right at home and did everything to comfort and soothe her. I was provided with updates consistently every day which helped ease my own anxiety. Coda will definitely be paying Namita another visit, highly recommend! 😁”
“William and Marichu are so very sweet and accommodating and have a beautiful home. I can tell my Bella really enjoyed her stay and was well cared for - which put me at ease to enjoy my vacation. My return flight home was several hours delayed and they were so kind and understanding. I highly recommend and will definitely work with them in the future!!”
“Our dog had a great time and it was clear he was well taken care of during his stay. Plenty of walks and felt like he had time with the family not locked up very much. Highly recommend.”
“She was awesome at sending pictures and keeping us updated. Very quick to respond to texts. She was very nice and Moose seemed to love his stay and playing with her dog. I will be using Kayla in the future.”
“Paige was great! Kept us up to date about how our babies were doing and we could tell how much she cared about our dogs and making sure they were healthy and happy!”
“Margarita was very attentive to my dog’s needs. When I dropped off my fur baby, he had serious separation anxiety. Margarita kept me updated on his progress. I felt comfortable leaving my fur baby with Margarita because I could see that she genuinely cared. I will definitely choose Margarita the next time I need to board my fur baby.”
“Jessica was amazing. She communicated clearly and was flexible when my flight was delayed and I could not get my dog at his scheduled time. She’s very kind and my dog was well cared for.”
“From drop-off to pick up it was an all around great experience. Eric and his son provided top notch care for our doggy. Coco had plenty of space to run and play in his back yard. We appreciated the pictures he sent us while we were away and felt at ease knowing she was in good hands. We will definitely use his services in the future and will highly recommend to friends and family.”
“We were so pleased with Jason! He sent us pictures of our dog who looked very happy and loved while he was boarded. His home and backyard are clean and a great set up for dogs. We will definitely use Jason again!”
“If I could give more than five stars, I absolutely would! From the very beginning, she exceeded every expectation and made me feel completely at ease leaving my pets in her care. She is truly one of the most caring, patient, trustworthy, and compassionate pet sitters I’ve ever met. Her communication was exceptional! she kept me updated throughout their stay with messages and photos, and it was obvious that she genuinely cared for my dogs as if they were her own. I will absolutely be booking with her again, and I would recommend her to anyone without hesitation.”
“Best dog sitter around! Doloris made sure our doggie was comfortable at the meet up. She was very patient and very attentive with our usually nervous doggie. We left for our trip with confidence, knowing our pup was in good hands. We will be using this sitter again. Definitely recommend!”
“Jade had an amazing time, came home very tired and happy. She made me nerves calm down with constant pictures and updates. I would defiantly use her for boarding again.”
“We had a wonderful experience boarding our dogs, Kona, Nellie, and Harvey, with this family. They sent frequent photos and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was easy to tell our dogs were having fun playing with the other dogs and receiving lots of love and affection. We also really appreciated their communication and transparency. When one of our dogs had a negative interaction with another dog, they informed us immediately and kept us updated. We felt that our dogs were genuinely cared for like part of the family. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy place for their pets.”
“I loved the daily updates and videos. She was soo sweet and kind. I knew yoshi was in good hands. I will definitely use her services again. Yoshi was sooo happy upon pick up❤️❤️”
