“Our boy has stayed with Shaylonn & Richard a few times now. Great sitter! They took wonderful care of our dog and kept us updated with pictures and messages throughout his stay. It gave us peace of mind knowing our buddy was happy and well cared for. We would definitely book with them again!”
“This was my first time boarding my dog so I was super nervous! However, Patty was AMAZING from the beginning! I felt comfortable with her after our very first conversation. She invited me over to see her home and where my Ginger would sleep and play. Upon drop off I was still a little nervous since I had never left her for so long before but Patty assured me she would be fine. It warmed my heart when I received pictures and or videos of Ginger everyday. Patty was really great, we will definitely use her again!!”
“Saphire took wonderful care of our dogs while we were away, they were happy and worn out when we picked them up. She send lots of photo updates and responds quickly to any questions or messages.”
“This was my first time using Rover, I was nervous, but Namita & Sean made me feel comfortable when meeting and took a chance on watching my Lucky, he has never been around other dogs and Namita & Sean welcomed him and he did great with them and their fur babies. They sent me updates and pictures throughout the day. I couldn’t of been more happier for them to watch Lucky again!”
“Lindsey was amazing as a host for our dog Milo - she was very easy to work with and flexible and Milo had a great time interacting with other dogs there (which he wasn’t really used to previously). She took pictures and sent videos along the way which was great to see - highly recommended!”
About: I grew up in a home that always had dogs and cats. As I got older, we began fostering dogs and venturing into owning more exotic animals such as hedgehogs, tortoises, mini pigs, pygmy goats, and saltwater fish. Growing up we had a dog that had seizures. Since being an adult and living on my own since 2014, I have owned a French bulldog, two toy yorkies, saltwater fish, a Persian cat (who had a seizure condition), and two standard poodles. I absolutely adore any and all animal and love learning about new species and breeds. I briefly worked for a vet's office as a vet tech in 2015 and a doggy daycare (Planet Canine) from 2012-01/2014. Since 2015 I have dog sat periodically for family and friends. I enjoy taking my poodles on long walks in our neighborhood. I have experience with administering medications for my previously ill and senior dogs such as ear drops, oral tablets and liquid, and eye drops. I am reliable, detail oriented, and a lover of all beings big and small. I am a self-proclaimed helicopter dog-mom. I start my day by caring for my dogs before I get ready for the day. Either me or my husband comes home in the middle of the day and lets them free roam and play for a little while. My 9-5 is flexible which means I can normally leave during the day at any point if and I am typically available after 5 pm most weekdays. I like to be home by 9 pm at the latest. Weekends I am normally available 9am-9pm. Fridays are normally the most flexible day for me. I have a privacy fence, and both of our gates are locked on the inside. I closely watch my dogs when they are outside. I have ample spaces to allow for crates, big and small. When I care for pets in someone else's home, I will stay outside with them while they potty and stay near them when they eat. I typically will not leave pets alone with toys unless the parents specifically ask this of me.
“Celeste is a super sitter - 5 star plus plus. She took excellent care of our chocolate lab, a very senior member of our family who is 17+ people years old and needs a little extra help. We are very happy with the love and care shown our old girl, and have found our new sitter of choice.”

“Brittany was an excellent dog sitter. She was very responsive from the beginning of our communications and sent me frequent pictures and videos while my dog was there. Most importantly, it is obvious how much she loves dogs and she has a unique ability to quickly bond with them. I would most definitely use her again!”
About: I love to bond with pets. Dogs especially, they are like built in best friends. However, sadly I am not a fan of house cats. I work from 5am-2pm daily, and I have college on Tuesday evenings. I am free any other time. Just let me know what’s best for you. I treat them as if they were my own. Love them how they should be loved. They and friends.

I currently work full time from home, spend my free time fishing, crafting, or hanging out with my family.

“Amanda is the best cat sitter we’ve ever had! Our cat can be territorial and act out when we leave but not when Amanda visits. She goes above and beyond and helped us immensely when we needed to prep our house for unexpected below freezing temperatures in Texas. We can’t thank her enough for all she’s done while we’re away. I can stress less when I know she’s watching our cat!”
“Absolutely wonderful! I highly recommend Chestney! She was always on time and took great care of our pups while we were. She communicated everything that we asked. We will definitely be using her in the future.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 19. I have 4 doggies at home myself, so I know what I am dealing with! I love it! I am currently a college student at Lamar Institute of Technology going for dental hygiene. I also work part-time as a waitress at Tokyo Japanese Steakhouse here in Beaumont.

Depending on where I am at I would have to adapt to the place and making it work.
“Molly took very good care of our two cats. Thanks to her maintaining their litter box my house smelled nice and clean when we got home! She is a sweet young woman and very reliable and responsible. I was a little nervous about a stranger having access to my house but I realized quickly she was trustworthy. She communicates well and sent reports and photos of my cats which put my mind at ease. I will definitely use Molly again when I need a sitter.”
“Megan did a wonderful job caring for Barbi. I could not ask for a better experience with a sitter. I Will definitely use Rover again and hopefully Megan will be available.”
“Sherry did an outstanding job of taking care of our daughter's dog Abby over the long holiday weekend. Our daughter decided to join us just a few days before the trip and we were worried because our usual sitter was already booked. We were very grateful that Sherry was available and accepted our assignment with short notice. As soon as Sherry got there and was greeted at the door, it was apparent that Abby had maneuvered around the "barricade" my husband had created to keep her in a small area of our home. In doing this, she was cut off from her food and water. Sherry immediately called to alert us and the rest of the weekend went off without a hitch. Sherry was very prompt and consistent on keeping with Abby's schedule 3x a day and kept us updated with pictures as well. Being new to the area, we feel very fortunate to find someone reliable and trustworthy to care for our pet when needed. We highly recommend Sherry as a petsitter!”

“Baleigh went above and beyond for my cats. I had sudden plans change and she was extremely accommodating and kind to work with me. She kept my home clean, took plenty of pics of my cats for me, and gave them attention despite them being shy. I would recommend Baleigh for anybody!”
“Just returned from our trip to find our kitties all relaxed and content after being cared for by Anna. We really appreciated the updates and pictures. One of our babies has special needs and the other four each have their own little idiosyncrasies, and Anna handled them all wonderfully! Highly recommend!”

“Melanie is our go to gal for watching our fur babies! Not only is she professional, thorough, and sweet - she is also personable. Even though Rover notifies you when your sitter has arrived, Melanie sends her own personal message informing you she’s on-site. She also sends pictures/videos of your pets along with verbal updates. She likes to do a meet and greet before your actually booking which is nice. This is when you give her your notes/request/suggestions and overall routine of your pets. She immediately won over my pets and embraced their chaos - She is also armed and loaded with bite sized treats. Melanie is trustworthy and truly loves animals. Do yourself a favor and use her - we’re already booking her again!”
About: Growing up I always had dogs and would constantly watch dogs 101 and vet shows. I learned their language to better connect with them especially if they have anxiety. Right now I am raising 3 cats and caring for my elderly dog who has seizures so I know how to handle a situation when it come to it along with schedule medications. My dog also only chooses me to cuddle with during thunderstorms so if your pup has a fear of storms while you're gone you can rest assure I'm making them feel as safe as possible. I have pretty big gaps between my day schedule, between school and work. I have time for morning, afternoon and night visits. I usually get out of work 830 the latest so medication will be able to be given before too late in the night In the client's home I would normally make sure I can see their pet at all times to guarantee no accidents happen on my watch. I also depending on the breed and personality of the dog will walk them or give them enrichment more often as needed.

“I visited Houston from Austin for a day trip on short notice, and Saphire responded so quickly and was flexible with drop off and pick up times! There were plenty of dogs for my pup to play with and crates for when Harper needed space to eat. Her tail was wagging when we got there, when we left, and she slept the entire ride home :)”
“Reyna and Reina were absolutely amazing! They were able to come through for me last minute, and I truly appreciate them being so dependable. They took great care of my dog Chew Chew while we attended an engagement, and I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. They were kind, attentive, and made the whole process easy and stress-free. I highly recommend them and would definitely book with them again!”

“Safe Haven are the words that come to mind when thinking about how Melissa and Poppy (her sweet pup) were there for my sweet Brookie Cookie. My dog was extremely nervous about being left in an unfamiliar place, with an unfamiliar human and dog. She was trembling, but Melissa made her feel right at home, which in turn helped my family and I relax. Melissa was consistently communicative through messages and pictures, which further calmed our nerves and let us know Brooklyn was ok. All of her needs were met in an excellent manner. She had fun and made new friends. Melissa is a kind and caring soul. She was lovely to our pup and comforting to us. I highly recommend her!! When we are in town and need a safe haven for our pup, Melissa will be the one for us!!!”

“This was our first time using Rover and our first time leaving our dog with someone we didn’t know. As you can imagine we were a bit anxious. Namita and Sean did everything right to alleviate our concerns. They were super responsive to all communication, arranged a meet and greet so everyone (humans and dogs :)) could be introduced before the day of our trip, and sent great updates w/pictures while we were away. Great experience all around. We will definitely trust our dog with them in the future.”

About: Brand new to this site, but not new to pet care! Please consider giving my services a chance. I have my own dog training/pet care business outside of this site but figured I'd sign up here to get some more reach. I have had animals of all kinds throughout my life time. From cats and dogs to rats and snakes, I've cared for a large variety of pets. There was even a raccoon I pet sat at one point! My true passion though falls with dogs! I grew up wanting to be a veterinarian but changed my career path when I found my love and affinity for dog training in highschool. Ever since, I have studied and researched dog body language, training techniques, and other fun interactive activities and sports that can be done with dogs such as canicross or dock diving! Now my dream job is to become experienced enough to train service dogs for those in need, while also running a board and train facility. Outside of my own pets, I've also trained/cared for puppies and pet sat senior dogs and pregnant dogs. One pregnant dog actually went into labor during the time I was pet sitting, so I have experience handling dogs in labor. Additionally. I have experience administering medications and am knowledgeable on how to perform CPR and the Heimlich maneuver on dogs and cats. I have had to perform the heimlich once on one of my own dogs when she began to choke on a treat she'd been chewing on. I currently work a full time job at a local pet store, but I work around my retail work hours to provide care for both my pets and the pets of those who entrust me with them. I wake up early to care for pets before work, I use my hour lunch break to care for pets and after work I make my way out to care for pets before going back home to take care of my pets. My days consist of nothing but pet care around the clock! While I am adaptable to any schedule or routine set by a client, here is my own general routine for my own pets as an example of my care: My own pets are on a daily routine. My dogs get let out in the morning to potty and play while I prep breakfast for all my pets (3 cats, 2 dogs). After breakfast, my doberman lays down in her crate for an hour nap to avoid developing bloat and my corgi goes back outside to play with my mom's dog. My cats typically will take a nap after breakfast and lounge around. After an hour, my doberman goes back outside to play and I will go out to throw toys and play fetch or tug with them all. At 2pm, the dogs all come in for an hour or two nap time and then are let back outside to play. Around this time I will take one of my cats outside on a leash to let him explore. My cats are all indoor cats and typically don't show any interest in going outside, but he does so I felt this would be a safe way to let him do so. I also intend to build a little catio window unit for my bedroom to allow my cats a safe way to experience being "outside" without risk. Due to all my cats being 10+ years old, they spend most of their day relaxing, sitting in windows and watching the birds and squirrels outside. At about 8pm the dogs come inside and usually settle down and relax until dinner between 9:30pm and 10:30pm. After all my pets eat their dinner, the dogs will go to their crates to rest until I lay down for bed and let them out to join me. Typically I would not leave my dogs outside for such a long time, however I am currently living with my parents to help with my mom's disability and my dad prefers the dogs spend more time outside. Because of this I do try to find days to take my dogs out on walks in parks nearby. When I lived in Oklahoma, I would occasionally take them hiking as well. Thankfully, my parents do have a large enough fenced in back yard that the dogs have lots of room to run and play when I'm unable to take them out for an adventure. Once a month I give my dogs an oral flea and tick preventative. Every 2-3 months I will also fully groom my dogs. I shampoo and condition their fur, trim their nails, brush their teeth, clean their ears and moisturize their fur and paw pads. Nail trimmings are done more frequently, at least once a month if not twice, to ensure their nails don't grow too long. They do a lot of running outside, which helps manage the length between trimmings.
About: I have four dogs of my own - Avery (border collie), Lola (Maltese/Yorkie mix), Cooper (Bichon) and Ellie (Lab). I don’t have kids so my dogs are my world. I’m the friend and family member that gets to watch the dogs while everyone goes on vacation - yes, in other words, I’m the crazy dog lady. My husband says I’m not allowed to adopt anymore dogs so in the meantime, I’m open to watching yours. 😃 I am an educator so I am off for the summer. When school resumes, I’ll be available before 7 and after 4 - that’s if I don’t decide to become a stay at home dog mom. 🤷🏻♀️ My dogs are my family. I treat them like my children and would do the same for yours. I know what care I would expect for my dogs and will care for dogs the same way!
“I’ve had Melissa walk my dog a few times now. I can tell she really loves what she does and my dog is always so happy to see her! She sends plenty of photos and maintains an open line of communication. Book with her and your pup will be in great hands!”
About: I have a total of 4 years within veterinary medicine so I am specialized in both canines and felines. I am certified in most canine behavioral courses, and I do have certificates that were required by my day job at the Humane Society. I currently work part time for the humane society. My shifts are 8AM-3PM. My availability during the week is only limited to evenings but I do not have them listed on the app. Within my home we have a large property with 2 small dogs. Dogs will be leashed for walks just to ensure safety and not have any little wanderers in my neighborhood! At a client's home, I am there for the pets care. Once their needs are completed, I will do my best to make sure they are comfortable before I make my exit and especially devote time for love and attention!
About: I have always had dogs and had a several dogs growing up. I currently have two dogs that I love one of which has heartworms. So I have experience caring for dogs who need medicine and extra care. One of my dogs is also senior so I understand the requirements that come with caring for older dogs. This will be my first time working as a pet sitter but I have lots of experience around animals. I currently work full-time, but I am able normally completely free on the weekends. I also work near downtown Kingsport so I am able to leave on my lunch break to do dog walking. I do travel around the area a lot for my job and sometimes work late so I may not always be nearby or able to walk dogs very frequently through the weekday. I will be as attentive as possible when watching dogs in your home. I will also be respectful to your space and follow whatever rules I am given.
About: Iv taken care of different dogs and love playing with them. I've taken them out to walk, had them over for boarding and everday daycare. I'm currently not working and am available to give all the attention to your furry friend. Play days and walks are the best along with cuddles. I have a fenced home with plenty of yard to run and play. I have 2 dogs that are always willing to play all day.
“My schedule has been very hectic lately and I had to reschedule my walks with Megan several times. She was so understanding, kind, and helpful! I really appreciate that she made the process less stressful! I would definitely recommend her. Thank you Megan”
About: I have over 25 years experience as a bull breed breeder and dog shower. My family bred and showed Chows and Sharpei thru the 80's and 90's, and we bred and raised American Bulldogs until 2017. I also have done many rescues and have extensive knowledge of potty training, and am very well read on dog behavior and socialization. I would love to use my passion for dogs to help you and your family. Dogs and I have a very special understanding. I have cared for packs as large as 17, and as small as one. Every dog I have ever met holds a special place in my heart. I'll treat each dog like it is my very own, in my home or in yours. In my home, I have an old retired American Bulldog mama who is 9 years old. She is 120lbs of sassy mommy! I have two medical needs chihuahuas, and a french bulldog. I own my own pet transport business. We provide ground transportation and in cabin flight services for dogs and cats! I love everything about animals and they are my life! We do a slow introduction to my existing pack of four! Dogs are never left unattended when we have guests. Dogs eat as a pack and go out as a pack.
About: I’ve taken care of my pets as well as family pets since I got my first cat back in 2010 when I was 7 years old. I have my own cat that I take care of. I feed her and take out her litterbox every day. She’s an indoor cat so she remains close to me at all times. I’ll follow whatever instructions that are provided. I’m used to dealing with my indoor cat. However our neighbors have outdoor cats that roam around and I hang out with them all the time.
About: Growing up I always had dogs and would constantly watch dogs 101 and vet shows. I learned their language to better connect with them especially if they have anxiety. Right now I am raising 3 cats and caring for my elderly dog who has seizures so I know how to handle a situation when it come to it along with schedule medications. My dog also only chooses me to cuddle with during thunderstorms so if your pup has a fear of storms while you're gone you can rest assure I'm making them feel as safe as possible. I have pretty big gaps between my day schedule, between school and work. I have time for morning, afternoon and night visits. I usually get out of work 830 the latest so medication will be able to be given before too late in the night In the client's home I would normally make sure I can see their pet at all times to guarantee no accidents happen on my watch. I also depending on the breed and personality of the dog will walk them or give them enrichment more often as needed.
About: ‼️ Beginning January 1st, 2023 I will no longer be providing services through Rover‼️I will still be providing services, I will just be freelance, Rover keeps 20% of money earned and I understand their reasons but that's often a large chunk of money even though I've never needed the extra services these funds cover, however I'm just not comfortable raising my prices. I worked as a kennel technician in a veterinary clinic for 1 year before taking time away from work to be with my daughter. I have cared for pets inside my home since I was a child and have two dogs and three cats of my own. I have cared for pets as small as 3 lb all the way into the 200s and hold no breed biases. I'm currently a part-time online student at Lone Star college so my availability is wide open I will try my best to stick to your pets current schedule as much as possible to make their time away from you as easy on them as it can be. During my time at the clinic I became very familiar with harnessing, leashing, and collaring rambunctious dogs as well as coaxing reluctant animals into their kennels I use a fear free approach (lots of treats and toys!) and do not condone dragging pulling or pushing pets unless it is the safest course of action in an emergency situation. I am also experienced in giving medications and monitoring pets for signs of distress or illness.
About: I genuinely love dogs and grew up with at least 3+ dogs in the house. I have spent over 5 years caring for dogs of all personalities. I enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality, energy level, and routine so they feel safe and happy. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just extra attention and cuddles, I make sure every dog feels loved, cared for, and comfortable while you’re away. I am a personal trainer. Most days I’m finished with work around 10/11 AM and don’t return until 4 PM or later, which gives me a large midday window to focus fully on dog care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and attention during the day, as well as evenings and weekends. I love spending my free time with dogs and making sure they get plenty of exercise, affection, and consistency. I have a fully fenced yard and one very friendly dog who loves to play or nap providing a safe and social environment. I closely supervise all interactions and follow each dog’s routine carefully. I’m comfortable using crates if provided by the owner. My goal is always to create a calm, safe, and loving space where your dog feels comfortable and cared for.
“Brittany was very accommodating and did great with walking my dog! She even went out of her way to help me with different things that I needed. I would definitely reccommend her (:”
About: Being a versatile person and lifelong pet mom, I've experienced animals in all stages of life from bottle feeding kittens to teaching old dogs new tricks. It is possible. I currently have two senior cats, both since they were kittens. In 15 years they've had unique situations and varried interests that we as a family have adapted to such as traveling, fostering, and aging. Currently I am carrying for a senior dog that has weather anxiety and likes pillow forts in bad weather. Also with me is a 2 year old foster who loves the park and snuggles but is not good around some small dogs. I was able however to acclimate the large dogs to living peacefully with my two cats. It was a precarious situation at first. Both dogs love car rides as well as one of my cats. He might think he's a dog. I do my own pet bathing and grooming (trimming nails...polish, brushing, ECT.) I have also raised puppies and have worked with and house trained both cats and dogs. While walking the dogs we work on their social skills when encountering other people and animals. I have a flexible schedule, however, with a part time job I will need advanced notice to coordinate my schedule to meet the needs your pet. Short term and long term assignments accepted. I'm looking forward to meeting your pet! I would prefer to care for your pet in its home. My animals are still working on socializing. In time this may change however we currently can't have guests.

About: Whenever I was in highschool I spent the whole school year at the vets office for a class. I have always loved all animals, and made sure that they were always safe and well cared for. I have also rescued a few reptiles, I have some of my own. Rover is my summer job, most of the time I’m at home, so I’m available a lot. I’m starting college in fall so this money would go towards that. I have a fenced yard, no dogs, but I do have inside cats. When I did have a dog I treated her like a baby and I would do the same for yours.
