“Richard and Stephanie took such great care of our babies! They were loving, reliable, and made us feel at ease. We’d definitely have them watch our pups again!”
“First time boarding my grandpups Tobias and Franklin. Tabitha was awesome. Her videos, pictures. and updates made the experience perfect. Our babies had a great time and we were able to relax knowing they were in great hands.”
“Once again I can not thank Lisa enough! She is very professional and goes over and beyond to make sure you and your furbaby are comfortable. I highly recommend her to anyone needing boarding services.”
“Our Frenchie really enjoyed his stay with Nakeya. He had a little area dedicated for him to sleep and relax. His birthday was Christmas Day and Nakeya went above and beyond by throwing a birthday party. He was exhausted when he got home from all the activities. Great job.”
“Vimonluck was such a breathe of fresh air and gave me so much peace of mind when watching Hershey! She provided updates, pictures, and videos. Hershey was living her best life playing my hide and seek with Vimonluck’s dog Miso! I’d definitely recommend and rebook with Vimonluck on future occasions. Thank you so much!”
“Marci was GREAT! I had concerns leaving our dog with anyone as he can be a handful, not in a bad way but a bit anxious and high energy. Marci was very confident he would not be a problem. Her calmness and demeanor was a perfect fit for Robin Hood. Although she has multiple dogs and cats of her own, Robin was able to adjust and become part of the pack during his stay. When in need for a pet sitter again I’m checking in with Marci!”
“I appreciate Yvette’s prompt response to my boarding request. Upon meeting her it was obvious that she genuinely care about pets. The pictures, videos, and updates assured me that my fur baby was in good hands. I’m sure Coco loved the attention that she received. We will choose Yvette for boarding again.”
“Teena and her incredible family are so wonderful to my sweet Hadley!! She loves my big girl just like her own. It is so nice to not worry one second about Hadley while we are gone. Thank you Teena!!!❤️”
“This was my first time using this site and Trudie made my experience amazing and easy! She answered all of my questions and was very transparent! I will be using her and her husband’s services in the future!”
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Alexia! From the moment we met her, it was clear that she genuinely loves and cares for dogs. She was thoughtful, attentive, and treated our dog, Cosmo, like he was part of her own family. Knowing Cosmo was in such loving hands gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Alexia kept us updated, made sure he was well cared for, and went above and beyond to ensure he was happy and comfortable. We wholeheartedly recommend Alexia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter. We look forward to supporting her business again in the future—and we’re already excited to get Cosmo together with her sweet pup, George, for a playdate soon! Thank you, Alexia, for taking such wonderful care of our boy!”
“Lacy was very caring and loving with our pup! She made sure to inform us of his daily activities with pictures and updates. We would definitely recommend and will be rebooking for future stays.”
“My dog had a fantastic time over at Samantha and Ryan's place! I was sent photos and messages everyday giving me updates, and they were very accommodating to my dogs quirks, since she was adopted only recently and was very skittish. My pup got to run around playing with other dogs all day, then nap to re-energize for more fun. I was able to lend them my dog's crate to sleep in, along with leash/harness so she could be taken on walks. I definitely recommend Samantha and Ryan's services.”
“I’m always impressed with Leslie, she is absolutely the best and my pet Bella loves her and so do I. She is compassionate and kind hearted. Bella is happy in her care and that means the world to me.”
“Our Cici was very well cared for during her 9 day stay with Amanda. Amanda was so pleasant to work with and the communication was great! The environment with Amanda, her family, and dogs was ideal for our pup and our pup was comfortable and at ease with them. We easily recommend Amanda for pup sitting. She will be our first choice for future visits.”
“This was my first time using Rover and am so glad we found Amanda! Communication was great and she send us videos of Bella, which eased our worries since this was Bella’s first stay away from our family. It was overall a very good experience. We will definitely use Amanda again!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Teresa while we were away for 3 nights. Communication was excellent throughout our trip, and it was clear that our fur baby was well cared for and loved. Hatchie had a great time and even made some new friends! We appreciated the updates and the peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. Thank you for taking such great care of Hatchie—we would definitely recommend Teresa and look forward to using her services again! 🐾💕”
“Lauren and her family took wonderful care of my little Zelda. From the get go Lauren was understanding about my concerns working with a stranger. She facilitated a meet and greet for us and answered all my questions. When our vacation came she made sure to give me daily updates and pictures which helped me feel comfortable that my furbaby was being well cared for. I will definitely use her again!!!”

“Angela is an excellent pet sitter - responsible, reliable, always on time, and great at responding right away. My cat loved her and I could not have asked for a better helper. Will definitely reach out again. Highly recommend Angela!”

“Amanda was a great pet sitter for our cat Will! She checked on him once a day while we were away for the week. I really appreciated her daily updates and photos of our sweet boy. She was also very responsive whenever I had a question or forgot to ask something and messaged her on the Rover app or via text.”
“Amanda did an amazing job. She kept us updated with how everything was going and even sent us photos. The house was kept as clean as we had it and all of our boys were clearly well loved and taken care of while we were away. I highly recommend her for any of your needs to include house sitting! Very reliable and trustworthy!”
“Kamryn took care of our two cats for a week and was great about getting over there to see them. This was her first experience with cat sitting, which has some different requirements than dog sitting, obviously.She always sent pictures of our fuzzballs after she was done, which was great to see they were in good hands. Thank you so much!”
About: I’ve had my fur babies for 2 years, Bubus and dodge. Dodge is a rescue founded in a dodge charger (hence the name), I think is pretty fitting. I don’t have as much experience with cats as I have with dogs but I can assure you, your fur baby/babies will be caring hands
“Alexia was absolutely amazing! She was incredibly kind, responsive, and flexible with our schedule, which made everything so easy and stress-free. Most importantly, you could tell she genuinely cared about our pets and treated them like they were her own. She spent so much time playing with our cats and making sure they were happy and comfortable while we were away. She even went above and beyond by helping with the vacuum, water fountain, and Litter-Robot, which we really appreciated. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pets and home were in such great hands. We would absolutely recommend Alexia and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”
About: I’ve always had a special love for cats and grew up caring for cats and dogs that were a big part of my family. I’ve also cared for friends’ cats when they needed someone they could trust. One of my most meaningful experiences was caring for a former client’s cat for two years. I became very attached to her and was happy to provide her with love, companionship, feeding, playtime, and the attention she needed. I understand that every cat has their own personality and comfort level, and I’m patient and attentive to their individual needs. My goal is always to make sure each cat feels safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their family is away.
“This was our second time booking Kari and she did another phenomenal job! Our kitty got sick this time around while we were out of town. Kari sent thorough updates and photos, which put our minds at ease. She also cleaned up for us, which was so appreciated. Thank you, Kari! We will be booking with her again for sure.”
“Communicated everything that needed communicated, was prompt and gave updates, kept my pup and house safe and secure, top notch care, would recommend to any pet ow era needing some help!”
“Well aside from the initial visit which one tremendously well, I have had one visit with my dog Avalanche. He took to her really fast, she was very loving caring and sweet to him during the visit. I would highly recommend her to anybody else. She is great in communicating as well as very punctual. Thank you for watching my little guy makes me feel much better while I'm at work.”

“Meagan was fabulous. She even took the time to find my kitty that likes to hide. I came home to happy kitties and she sent great pictures. She was great with communication. Will definitely book again”
“Keasha was the absolute best. This is the first time we used Rover so we were a little skeptical but after Keasha took care of our cat we have no problem using it again. She communicated often, sent us pictures, our cat was so happy to the point where she didn’t wanna come back home to us :-) she was happy with all the attention. Thanks for taking care of Gypsy, Keasha.”

About: I have had a love for Animals since I was around 12:00 had my pet for 17 years until he recently passed. I am home work based so able to give full attention to the pet. I work from home and my pet has been with me for 17 years and working from home he has given me that company that I needed while at home working daily I have a very large backyard that is fenced in and that allows the pets to run freely or they can be tied on a Long Leash.

“Thanks a lot for caring for Xophi and ensuring her first day at daycare was enjoyable. She was cheerful and in high spirits when we picked her up. Looking forward to the next visit!”
About: Im a breeder and trainer of multiple breeds. My entire family takes part in the fun whether it’s just playing and walking to picking up poop and cleaning kennels. We love working with dogs and being a blessing to families. Pet care is a lifestyle for our family. It’s just what we do. Dogs are fed twice a day. Given playtime a couple of times a day while kennels are being cleaned. Smaller dogs that are house trained live as family members with us during their stay. We feed twice a day and clean pens during playtime. Dogs get morning and evening walks around the neighborhood areas and have access to water at all times. I must warn that the children spoil the dogs during their stay.

About: With working from home it allows me to give every animal in my care the attention and love they need as well as the flexibility to work with parents schedules. 10 years of experience working with dogs and cats both high energy, shy/nervous, needing extra attention, dogs who need separation from other dogs, both small and large! I have plenty of space in the back yard as well as toys both inside and out to make sure every fur baby is able to get their zoomies out, plenty of play time and comfort inside my home as well! I do not kennel any dogs unless the parents state that they need to be at any specific time for any reason. I want to provide a stress free experience where both fur babies and parents are taken care of. I want parents to feel confident in knowing their babies are safe and I will treat them as if they were my own babies, I taught my dog, to be able to go to the dog parks and be social nonaggressive. I specifically taught him to be gentle with cats and dogs growing up so he loves everyone. I do have extra space in my home so if someone needs to be separated or have a little bit of some space way while receiving the same quality care, they are able to have that! If I go into your home it is specifically to give the babies play times with any toys you allow me to use and just show them the same loving and petting I would for my babies. 🐾 😊 If you have a questions or concerns please don’t hesitate to ask I am here to help you have a peace of mind! ☺️ I work from home so I am actively able to provide daily outside playtime and potty time during the day and some much needed sun bathes for the sun bathers. I am able to provide a good feed schedule as well treat times! It is a pleasure to be able to work from home and effectively care to the needs of each furbaby! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. With my experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, I understand how important it is to have someone you can truly trust with your furry family members!❤️ I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and individual needs to ensure every pet receives personalized care, patience, and plenty of affection. I believe communication is extremely important, so I’m happy to provide regular updates, photos, and check ins for peace of mind. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, anxious, young, or senior, I strive to make them feel secure, loved, and at home in my care. 🐾
About: Fur babies are family! They need love and patience. Growing up I had a Pekingese for 13 years and then a poodle mix for 12 years. So I learned at an early age the responsibility of caring for the family pet. My first adult pet was a mini lob rabbit which I had for 10 years. It had some medical issues in which required regular care from the local vet. A few years ago I was introduced to Great Danes and immediately fell in love! Zoe, my twelve year old Dane lived her best life. She went to parks, family gatherings, car rides, camping. She passed away last year at the age of 12 1/2. I am not ready for another pet just yet and now that I have some free time I would love to give others the sense of security by playing, loving and caring for their pet. I'm recently retired and have a flexible schedule. With that flexibility I have the opportunity to check on your pets or provide over night care with short notices. I have a fenced yard with lots of room for your pet to lay in the sun, run, stretch and play! For over night stays a crate might be beneficial depending on your pets behavior and comfort. For day to day visits I will respect your property and pet and follow your guidelines to ensure our pet friendly visit is successful.

I am a teacher and my husband runs a business. He is able to come home during the day and let the pups outside to potty and check on them. I am home by 4:30 everyday. I also have all school breaks off- more time for me to spend with your pups. I have a fenced backyard with plenty of room for them to run and stretch their legs. We love to take nightly walks through the neighborhood. I play with the dogs as much as they want to play and snuggle them when they want to relax.

About: Hey there! I’ve been pet sitting for over a decade and have experience caring for animals of all kinds—whether they have fur, feathers, or scales. While I primarily care for dogs and cats, I’m also very comfortable with birds, reptiles, and other non-traditional pets. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy building trust with every animal I care for. If you have a unique pet or specific needs, I’d be happy to help! Though I work full time, I involve pet care in my every day routine. If I'm up, they're up, if I'm outside, they're outside. I live an active lifestyle. I incorporate them in my daily life, so if they are a dog that enjoys walking, I incorporate that into my routine. If they’re a couch potato then we will be couch potatoes together.
“Hillary is fantastic working with. Takes great care of the puppies, truly has a passion for what she does. Would recommend booking her and I plan to do so again in the future.”
About: My availability is very flexible. I work from home now and am finally able to love on your fur babies around the clock! I also offer house sitting at your home or at my house as well. I love taking the fur babies out for a walk. It’s good exercise for them and myself to get fresh air. Previously had two chihuahua’s that were escape artists so fully doggy proof. I also have experience on working with handicap fur babies. I currently worked with a fur baby that lost motion in his back legs prior to his visit to me and he was/is now able to balance on his back legs from the at home physical therapy we would do. And now he gets so excited when I drop by his home to check on him (we are actual best friends seriously.) I am available to walk your dogs or check in on your cats/dogs while you are away as well as make sure they are fed and have plenty of water and play time throughout the day if you have an extremely busy schedule. I have been house sitting dogs and cats previously for well over 15 years and have owned pets previously (before my parents moved overseas and kept the pack together) for well over 20 years. Would love to help with your fur babies! I work full time as a manager from home so I am able to fully utilize loving on your fur baby as well as take them out for walks and potty breaks consistently. When I am pet sitting the babies sleep in the bed with me and are on the couch getting all of the cuddles. It is a staycation.
About: I’ve had big AND small dogs my entire childhood! I’ve also taken care of horses, steers, pigs, chickens, birds (exotic), dogs, cats! After growing up with only dogs and small house pets (hamsters, crabs, fish, frogs, and lizards)In my adulthood, my husband and I have opened our home to several rescues through the six years we’ve been together. At our home we consider ourselves “last owners” animals come to us to live out the rest of their lives, comfortable and loved. We’ve been by the side of 6 rescue birds, a few kittens and one chameleon to watch them cross over the rainbow bridge, and complete their journey. Between Gage (my husband) and I we have 10 cats (willow, meadow, sushi, pumpkin, chai, jenny, lucifer, salem, peggy & naruto) 5 birds (blanca, bleezy, grim, puffer & mongo bongo - she’s a 46 year old scarlett macaw! - ) 1 dog, (chief) 1 chameleon (pascal) and 1 scalata tortoise (torchy) ! we are obviously big animal lovers!! In conclusion, We both have tons of experience around all species of animal and we want your trip to be focused on enjoying YOUR vacation plans, and not worried about if your fur babies were left in the wrong hands! Most of my clients do not have children and their pet is their child. I want to you as the parent of your sweet baby, to be confident when you walk out the door knowing i’ll be there I can not wait to care for all of your babies, fur or reptile! please feel free to reach out to me send ask about my process of meeting the baby and we can discuss pricing! (if it’s too expensive DONT PANIC! we can communicate and i will really take whatever you’d like to pay. I understand vacations are very expensive and I don’t want you to have to choose between a fun tour or activity with you family vs having adequate care for your baby while you’re away. If you think i’m perfect for your home and baby, please let me know what you can pay and i will always work it out! I AM WILLING TO DRIVE AND TRAVEL TO YOU (OUT OF STATE) MY MILAGE IS SET TO 100 MILES LETS TALK!) My husband and I currently have 5 birds, a dog, and a seven kittens, we also are thinking about getting a bearded dragon and we currently have a scalata tortoise! We’re big animal lovers and would love to take care of any your sweet babies! We’re pretty flexible, I’m a full time ROVER sitter!! He works at Total Wine in Cedar Hill. If I’m not available my husband definitely is! Currently my husband works at Total Wine & More in Cedar Hill. When I / we stay in your home I will most likely be there all day! Rover is my full time job so whatever care your baby needs I’ll make sure to be on top of it! Most bookings I would like to keep my husband with me wherever I am (just for safety reasons), BUT if you’re not comfortable with that I TOTALLY understand and I’m more than willing to stay without my husband!! I want to do whatever makes YOU AND YOUR BABIES safe, happy and comfortable!

“Richard and Stephanie took such great care of our babies! They were loving, reliable, and made us feel at ease. We’d definitely have them watch our pups again!”
“Vimonluck was such a breathe of fresh air and gave me so much peace of mind when watching Hershey! She provided updates, pictures, and videos. Hershey was living her best life playing my hide and seek with Vimonluck’s dog Miso! I’d definitely recommend and rebook with Vimonluck on future occasions. Thank you so much!”
“Marci was GREAT! I had concerns leaving our dog with anyone as he can be a handful, not in a bad way but a bit anxious and high energy. Marci was very confident he would not be a problem. Her calmness and demeanor was a perfect fit for Robin Hood. Although she has multiple dogs and cats of her own, Robin was able to adjust and become part of the pack during his stay. When in need for a pet sitter again I’m checking in with Marci!”
“I appreciate Yvette’s prompt response to my boarding request. Upon meeting her it was obvious that she genuinely care about pets. The pictures, videos, and updates assured me that my fur baby was in good hands. I’m sure Coco loved the attention that she received. We will choose Yvette for boarding again.”
“Teena and her incredible family are so wonderful to my sweet Hadley!! She loves my big girl just like her own. It is so nice to not worry one second about Hadley while we are gone. Thank you Teena!!!❤️”
“This was my first time using this site and Trudie made my experience amazing and easy! She answered all of my questions and was very transparent! I will be using her and her husband’s services in the future!”
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Alexia! From the moment we met her, it was clear that she genuinely loves and cares for dogs. She was thoughtful, attentive, and treated our dog, Cosmo, like he was part of her own family. Knowing Cosmo was in such loving hands gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Alexia kept us updated, made sure he was well cared for, and went above and beyond to ensure he was happy and comfortable. We wholeheartedly recommend Alexia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter. We look forward to supporting her business again in the future—and we’re already excited to get Cosmo together with her sweet pup, George, for a playdate soon! Thank you, Alexia, for taking such wonderful care of our boy!”
“My dog had a fantastic time over at Samantha and Ryan's place! I was sent photos and messages everyday giving me updates, and they were very accommodating to my dogs quirks, since she was adopted only recently and was very skittish. My pup got to run around playing with other dogs all day, then nap to re-energize for more fun. I was able to lend them my dog's crate to sleep in, along with leash/harness so she could be taken on walks. I definitely recommend Samantha and Ryan's services.”
“I’m always impressed with Leslie, she is absolutely the best and my pet Bella loves her and so do I. She is compassionate and kind hearted. Bella is happy in her care and that means the world to me.”
“Our Cici was very well cared for during her 9 day stay with Amanda. Amanda was so pleasant to work with and the communication was great! The environment with Amanda, her family, and dogs was ideal for our pup and our pup was comfortable and at ease with them. We easily recommend Amanda for pup sitting. She will be our first choice for future visits.”
“This was my first time using Rover and am so glad we found Amanda! Communication was great and she send us videos of Bella, which eased our worries since this was Bella’s first stay away from our family. It was overall a very good experience. We will definitely use Amanda again!”

“Mary was a great sitter! She really took care of my dogs while they were staying at her house. One of them kept escaping her crate and Mary let her use her own crate while they were staying at her house. Huge yard for the dogs to go run around, great environment.”
“Kalen and her daughter took excellent care of my dog Cookie. She has two dogs of her own for Cookie to play with. I recurved pictures of them olsying and chilling out. I highly recommend Kalen as a dog sitter.”

I was nervous, as this was the first time he stayed with a stranger and other dogs, but you made us feel comfortable with the updates. I felt that my Coco was well taken care of and definitely recommend you to others.”
