“Our other sitter canceled on us last minute and luckily Jessica responded to us right away even though it was so last minute on a holiday weekend. Her whole family was so sweet with our Roxy and we instantly felt at ease when we dropped her off. Highly recommend 👍”
“They were fantastic! They sent pictures and a video and kept me updated as to how Heidi was doing. She had a great time and was thoroughly exhausted when she came home.”
“My dog Svedka had a great time at Andrea’s for the weekend !! I know she loved playing with the other dogs ! Once we got home she went straight to the couch for a nap 😂 will definitely use her again !”
“Dustin took good care of my dogs. Dustin was patient with my shy girl. His dogs were fun playmates. Plenty of room to run. Safe, fenced backyard. Dustin supervised them while they were outside with the pool. He was responsive and sent lots of pictures and videos. We will have him sit Luna and Nova again.”
“Cynthia and her family kept Maggie and Benny for three nights, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the beginning until I picked them up, communication was easy and reassuring, and it was clear they truly enjoy caring for dogs. Maggie and Benny were happy, comfortable, and clearly well loved while they were there. Knowing they were in a safe, attentive, and family-centered home gave me complete peace of mind. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust Cynthia and her family with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for thoughtful, dependable dog care.”
“This was our first experience with Rover and it was AMAZING. Many thanks to Sarah V. BE-G was so well-cared for; she returned happy, healthy, and exhausted from all the fun she had. BE-G is already looking forward to her next stay. 😊”
“Absolutely amazing at communicating and my dog looked like he was having a blast in all the photos I got. Booked last minute before my trip and they were a miracle find especially since im new to the area”
“Celeste was very friendly and responsive when wanting an update on how Coco was doing. She was very thorough with questions about Coco's eating schedule, walking habits, and the little details on how she acts. She took her on walks plenty of walks. Also, can't thank her enough, she allowed me to extend Coco stay for an extra day due to my brother wanting to stay out of town longer.”
“Britney watched my 2 schnauzer puppies for 5 days. She offered a meet and greet beforehand which was a kind gesture. My puppies were not yet completely potty trained so I knew they would be a handful. I was a little nervous but she reassured me that they would be fine. She communicated with me daily. Ioriginally booked a late pickup but Our flight was late so I wasn't able to pick that evening. Britney kindly agreed to pick up the next morning. I won't hesitate to use her again.”
“Courtney was absolutely amazing! She stepped in last minute to watch Potato, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment I dropped him off, I could tell he was in great hands. She treated him like one of her own, and it was clear that both she and her family gave him lots of love and attention. Potato came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s such a relief knowing there’s someone I can trust with my pup, especially on short notice. I would absolutely recommend Courtney to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Potato!”
“The crazy freeze threw some scheduling issues at us and Lacey could not have been more kind and accommodating. And our pup was warm and safe by her fireplace! So grateful.”
“Whitney and family are great! They will make your pet feel nice and at home. She even has cats that will be nice to your pooch. I have been wanting mine to have a positive cat experience and hers delivered.”
“We appreciate Brady and Rebecca watching our new little puppy, Pippin. They were very accommodating, and their other pets were accepting of having a newcomer in their house and interacted well with him.”
“Mell completed another great stay with Tony. He came back home very happy and ready to go to bed. I’m appreciate the feedback Tony provides regarding Mell throughout his stay, and I’m grateful he takes such good care of my boy!”
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!

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. I am a Waco local and student at MCC studying to become a teacher. I’m currently working part time most weekdays until 6 pm. I can take appointments starting at 6:30 which is perfect during this Texas heat. I wouldn’t mind doing later walks when the weather is cooler. I will always make sure your pet is healthy and happy! My goal is to take extraordinary care of your pet and make sure it has everything it needs
“Very polite young lady. My cats are cautiously fearful of new and unfamiliar places. If a time arises that I need a sitter, I will consider Kiana in hopes that the familiarity will make for a calmer experience.”
“Kim was amazing. I had no worries about my cats at all knowing that they were in such great hands. So easy to communicate with, and she updated me daily with a photo and a report. If you’re looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter, look no further. I will definitely be using Kim again in the future!”

“Jessica was great with Moose! She sent me photos while I was gone and kept me updated throughout the entire time. Her puppy played so well with Moose. They had the best time together.”
“Lou always has a blast when he goes to Dustin’s and gets so excited upon arrival. I always know he loves someone by the way he gives hugs, and he definitely gives Dustin big hugs. Thank you for caring for my baby!”
“Courtney is wonderful and her love of animals is apparent as soon as you meet her. During our meet and greet, she was so patient and loving with my crazy fur kid, Frankie. I got such a great feeling watching her introduce her two cute pups to mine. She really knows what she's doing and doesn't rush the meeting process to ensure all the dogs are properly introduced. Once everyone was comfortable with each other they were able to play in the backyard together. Frankie had his first day of doggy daycare today with Courtney, Maia and Odin. She kept me updated with texts, pictures and a video of the doggies playing. When I went to scoop him up I could tell he had tons of fun and got lots of love! As soon as he got home he took a huge nap. I will be recommending Courtney to anyone looking for a great pet sitter. I can't wait to set up another stay with her ASAP?”
“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!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my love for the Lord and my lifelong love of animals! I have cared for pets of all ages and personalities and currently have a sweet Pit-Lab mix who loves making new friends and playing. I take him on daily walks and enjoy exploring nearby parks and trails, giving pets plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. We have experience giving oral medications and can care for active or senior pets. We provide a loving, stress-free environment, follow routines closely, and keep owners updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident your fur baby is happy and safe. Thank you for the opportunity and to care for your pet while you’re away, they will be in great care! I have a flexible schedule, so your pet will receive constant love, attention, and care. Morning and evening walks are part of the routine, and if your furry friend needs to run and burn energy, trips to a nearby trail can be included for exercise and fun.

Crating can be accommodated if needed, and all playtime is supervised to ensure safety. When visiting public parks, dog parks, or trails, pets are kept leashed and closely monitored at all times. Plenty of love, attention, and mental stimulation are provided, and any special routines or instructions can be followed to help your pet feel comfortable and at home.

About: Long time dog lovers adopted by a pregnant stray cat shortly before our precious senior Brittanys passed. Our pet love has grown! 💜 I do miss the dog walks and silliness, and would be happy to share that again. I have a flexible schedule, and while our cats are mostly pretty chill, we have a separate space they can go if things feel tricky. At present I am a stay at home mom to one elementary aged child so my hours are flexible throughout the week. My husband frequently works from home and we are a pretty low key family of introverts. We have a large fenced yard for play and love to take walks on leashes. Our home is pet friendly and cozy. We have two cats who have their own space they can retreat to when needed. Our son is in kindergarten and has been around pets since birth.
“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: I have always had cats in my life since I can remember. Now I have 3 of my own. 2 inside and one outside. I know how to feed, clean and care for all pets needs. We also now have a dog in our family and he is spoiled rotten. He likes to go on walks, play fetch All of our animals are cared for in the mornings when we wake up. Everyone gets fresh water and food. My long haired cat gets combed daily, medicine in his eyes and eyes cleaned out. By that time it is time to feed everyone I have a fenced yard for my dog and my two cats stay in the house. My outside cat comes in and out all day, eating and playing with the other kitties.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats of every shape and size, i have experience with all health issues and can give meds as well as shots. i can also groom ( 4+ years experience with all breeds) as well as care for your fur babies in any aspect they need! I have a very flexible schedule and can fit any of your time needs. I also can stick to your normal schedule so your dog does not feel out of place. I put your pets as a priority. I have a fenced in yard, and offer leash walking potty breaks. I also have a few pups of mine inside that are friendly and ready to play. I can also offer a crate for your dogs and keep them comfy no matter what they need!
About: I've lived in a house full of dogs for years so I feel more than qualified to handle a house full of your furry friends or a house with one. I've pet sat for friends and family so I know how important it is your dogs don't feel alone. Nowadays, even with the heat I'm a big fan of taking walks with my dogs. We're both fans of the exercise and I have a small wading pool as a treat after the walk. I normally take them early in the morning or later in the evening when the sun is not at its hottest to protect their feet. I only work part time early mornings so I have a wide open afternoon schedule that is available. I'm willing to be flexible with your schedule. I'm all about positive reinforcement and love to play with dogs. I understand dogs can get rough and I'm not afraid of their nibbles but I do know how to distract and redirect their attention in the case of extreme rough play. I'm a big fan of treats so I do include treats during my time with dogs. As long as there is a fenced in back yard, I don't like to rely too heavily on a leash but like for the dog to feel free to roam.
“thank you so so much!! kim was perfect with my dog! so nice and came on such short notice and my dog was in a huge smile when he came back. 100% recommend and altai can’t wait for his next walk with her already!”
About: I have had pets my whole life, coworkers and friends rely on me to help care for their pets while they’re gone. I have all kinds of experience with more than cats and dogs. I am a stay at home mom. I adjust to things as need be. Consistency is key but things happen sometimes. We have a fairly routine household. I keep pets on leashes at all times. Things can happen or other animals can come by. I am very easy going with the needs of each fur baby.
About: Every dog is different, requiring different types of care; lazing about, long play times, or simply just having a stroll through the neighborhood. I ensure all of these needs are met regardless of the type of dog. Open availability Wednesday thru Friday, if you would like to book any other days, I am open for the conversation! Weekdays, weekends or even holidays. If you have specific requirements of me, I will do everything to meet them, from your home to your pets needs. From every mess they make.
“We have been using Victoria to watch our dogs while we are away and when we need afternoon walks. She is great with the dogs, always on time, and thoughtful (bringing in mail and putting out trash)!”
About: I love all dogs, every shape size and personality. I have over 20 years experience taking care dogs cats and even farm animals. I would be very happy to help walk, feed and play with your animal. I specialize in caring for dogs with special needs such as epilepsy. I do work from home so my schedule is very open for feedings, walks, and play time. I am the proud "parent" of an 18 year old Long Haired dachshund mix who suffers from epilepsy so I know all the ins and outs of caring for a sick pup. I am also the mother two tow very energetic Aussie doodles. If your dog needs a little extra TLC I might be the girl to help. Please feel free to contact me for more information. I work from home and my schedule is flexible! I am an early riser and love walking. Taking care of dogs would only bring more joy to my day. I understand how stressful it can be for our animals when their owners are away. I am very patient with animals during this time as I know it can be overwhelming to have someone new taking care of them. I love to tailor the animals care to each specific animal based on their needs, emotional and physical.
“Brittany was awesome!! This was our first time using Rover and we were nervous about leaving our girls, but Brittany made it a great experience. She kept us up to date with pictures and comments. She even went above and beyond and brought our packages inside for us. 10/10 recommend. Will definitely be using her again!”
About: I am a stay at home homesteader that has three rescue doggos that live inside and a guardian livestock dog that spends her days taking care of the farm. We have hatched, raised and spend our days giving all the snacks to almost 50 chickens, 17 guineas, and 6 ducks. We have 2 goats one of which is about to give us a third. I know how hard it can be the travel with peace of mind without your babies with you, and I’d love to be able to help people enjoy your time away from home. Being able to set my own schedule while caring for other animals will allow me the ability to still care for my own animals without pulling time from them. I will do my very best to keep your fur babies routines exactly the same, and love and care for them like I love and care for my own babies.
About: I’ve worked with a local business for 5 1/2 years, and have received training over general knowledge about animals, providing pet aid, and knowledge about pet behavior. I love animals and I am familiar with all ranges of animals from domestic to live stock and reptiles. I am familiar with distributing oral and injection medications as well. I love my current job, and I am passionate about spending time with, and taking care of everyone’s babies! I have three dogs and two cats of my own, and I know how it important it is to have peace of mind when you are away from them! I look forward to helping you and your fur babies! I’m working part time at a local pet business, and would love to add some extra work and hours to my schedule for the week. I am familiar with what to look for when walking animals or letting animals outside. I also know what to look for when an animal is experiencing medical issues. All the while, distributing lots of love and attention!
About: Hi! I'm a dependable and caring pet lover who understands that every pet deserves patience, attention, and lots of love. Whether it's a drop-in visit, feeding, playtime, walks, or just keeping your pet company, I'll treat them like they're my own. I know how important it is to feel confident while you're away, so I'll provide regular updates, photos, and quick communication throughout every visit. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable in their own home. I myself have 3 dogs and they are basically like my children 😂. I keep my schedule organized so I can provide dependable pet care throughout the week. Whether it's morning, afternoon, or evening drop-in visits, I make sure every pet receives plenty of attention, playtime, fresh water, meals, and lots of care. During every drop-in visit, I make sure pets have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, playtime, and potty breaks as needed. I'll follow your pet's normal routine to help them feel comfortable and reduce stress while you're away. I also make sure your home is left just as I found it and will provide photo updates and messages so you know how your pet is doing. My goal is to give every pet a safe, fun, and caring experience while you're away. Also If your pet enjoys walks, I'll make sure they get safe, enjoyable exercise at a pace that's comfortable for them.
About: I consider myself a "mother of nature," because no matter what what kind of animal it is I am a natural at nurturing everything from fur-babies to feathered friends. I grew up with dogs, and I've always helped my disabled mom with her 4, now senior, dogs (two pitties, a rat terrier, and a chiweenie.) I love taking them on nature walks, and I even cook chicken or ground beef and rice for them, and use holistic remedies to keep them in top shape for their ages (15+). Animal rescue also comes naturally, because I feel humans are meant to be the keepers of the earth. Every night I feed a colony of stray cats and their neighbors (raccoons, opossums, and ducks.) 😁💖 It's a joy to me to help and have fun with cats and dogs, because I love animals. That's why I'm your fur-baby's favorite auntie! If you feel like I would be a great fit for your pet, let me know when you need me to be available. I'm an entrepreneur, so I can make exceptions and be flexible with scheduling. Currently, I don't have any pets in my household, besides two cats that I allow in for feeding and sometimes sleeping at night or when the weather is bad. They usually prefers to be outside. I take my disabled mom's dogs out every evening, so it's like I have 3 dogs. Although, they don't live with me.
“Did a great job with Coco, was very patient with her. Coco was a little nervous the firstt time she met Lindsey by herself. By their second interaction coco ran out the door with excitement.”
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was five years old, and neighbors trusted me with their pets as early as age 16. I continue to help friends and family by providing walks, playtime, and plenty of comfort and companionship for their pet. I have experience with pets of all ages, from puppies to seniors, and with dogs who have disabilities. Also small animals such as mice, hamsters, bunnies all the way up to Salcuta tortoise , I truly treat every pet like family and believe animals bring peace and joy to our lives. As I write this, I’m sitting for six dogs happily curled up at my feet and in my lap right where they belong. I currently work a shift schedule where I would be available after 2 pm or after 5 am. Hope to make this more of a full time job. Your welcome to contact me and I can let you know my schedule for the week. If needed I can ask off should I be needed for multiple days. In my home, I have a fenced yard that is perfect for both my dogs and my tortoise. I spoil my tortoise with delicious treats and ensure he stays warm in the winter. My dogs are like my kids; I take them for walks, give them treats, and shower them with love. When caring for a client's pet, I strictly follow their instructions. I provide treats if permitted, take them for walks as needed, and offer plenty of affection to ensure they feel loved. My goal is to create a safe and nurturing environment, helping them feel comfortable and at ease while their owners are away.
About: I love all dogs! I believe with my whole heart that dogs are special souls and they deserve to have all the love and attention! My top priority is to make sure your furbabies will be taken care of and feel safe with me. Play time, treats and snuggles are all important and your furbabies will have my attention 100% when they are with me. A little about myself, I am 34 and have an awesome husband who loves dogs as much as I do! We don't have children yet but have 4 dogs who we absolutely adore! They are our world! I look forward to getting to meet and make new friends here and mostly to meet new and precious dogs to help take care of! They will have my have all my attention while they are in my care. My husband and I love to keep our pups active and making sure they feel all the love from us! I can provide different activities depending on what yur furbaby likes. We have a park close to our house, a friendly neighborhood to go on walks or we can always just hang in my home. We have a good sized back yard and lots of blankets and toys they can play with under my supervision! There will always be water in their bowls, they will get their proper meals and treats as well.
About: I’ve always been the person friends and family trust with their pets because I’m calm, observant, and genuinely invested in their well-being. By trade I’m an ICU nurse, so I naturally pay close attention to routines, quirks and comfort levels, and I adjust my care to each pet’s needs rather than using a one-size-fits all approach. My goal is for you pet to feel secure, loved and happy and for you to feel confident that they’re in good hands. By trade, I’m an ICU nurse, and am currently taking some time away from the bedside to focus on something a little more peaceful, like taking care of pets. My schedule is wide open, which means I’m flexible with days and times I’m available. I used Rover when I worked 12 hour shifts in the hospital, so I know what I wanted in a dog walker for my dog. I want you to feel comfortable and carefree while you’re at work or away from home and I’m taking care of your most treasured companion. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When house sitting, I respect your home and your pet’s routine, keeping things consistent so they feel secure while you’re away. I’m attentive to details, follow care instructions closely and keep a calm, predictable environment. On walks, I prioritize safe routes, proper leash handling and awareness of surroundings and weather, I like to tailor walks to your pet’s energy level and needs I communicate clearly and provide thoughtful updates (with lots of pictures!) so you can feel comfortable with how your dog is doing.
About: I have parented and fostered dogs for 15 years -- they bring me so much joy! I love working with Rover because I want to help families who are in search of great care for their furry family member while they are busy or away. I absolutely adore dogs and how much they are messengers of love and healing to humans in ways that people just can’t. I believe in being service to people and to animals in order to make a difference. In addition to being a foster mom for shelter dogs when time allows, I’m work as an elementary school teacher. I have been a mommy to a Beagle, Springer Spaniel and now a Boxer, Duffy, and 4-pound Chihuahua, Gizmo, who was a foster fail. Sadly, they have all passed the rainbow bridge. I have fostered and sat for many different breeds, large and small. I have worked for a professional dog walker and sitter in the past year prior to me going back to teaching full time and have experience with opening houses to retrieve dogs for walks as well as overnight sits at a client’s home. I also have experience caring for cats as well. In my spare time, I also like to get together with friends for game time, scuba dive and run. While I live in Woodway, TX I can only take overnight sits or drop in visits, at this time. I can also take in mail, water plants, and care for other smaller animals, such as a bunny, gerbil, or lizard, for no extra charge. While I’m caring for your pup, I make sure they are comfortable by giving them the space they need or spending playtime with them. Whatever your dog needs to feel at ease, I always respond in a loving, kind and confident way. My clients love it that I have a heart that cares deeply about animals -- especially dogs -- and I take the responsibility of being the caregiver of their pet very seriously because I know how much my dogs meant to me and my family. I think they also love my flexibility to do whatever it takes to make them and their fur babies comfortable about Rover’s process and services. I am a full time teacher so i am available during weekends and school breaks including parts of the summer. Depending on the need of the animal, I am also open to keeping an animal while i am at work, which is now about usually 9 hours a day. I have an outside kennel available for the backyard in that case if you would like or cats (out of kennel), birds, gerbils, etc..would be inside the house. I follow directions exactly as the client requests. I make sure that your home and pets are secure and cared for at all times, either in my home or yours. I will send you pictures as frequently as you like (usually once a day) and you are free to check in with me while you are away. I will contact you immediately if there are any issues or concerns while your furry family members are in my care!

“Dustin took good care of my dogs. Dustin was patient with my shy girl. His dogs were fun playmates. Plenty of room to run. Safe, fenced backyard. Dustin supervised them while they were outside with the pool. He was responsive and sent lots of pictures and videos. We will have him sit Luna and Nova again.”
“Cynthia and her family kept Maggie and Benny for three nights, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the beginning until I picked them up, communication was easy and reassuring, and it was clear they truly enjoy caring for dogs. Maggie and Benny were happy, comfortable, and clearly well loved while they were there. Knowing they were in a safe, attentive, and family-centered home gave me complete peace of mind. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust Cynthia and her family with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for thoughtful, dependable dog care.”
