“William was fantastic! Very professional and I felt a genuine sincerity that reassured me he would take excellent care of my dog. I had a peace of mind also knowing William didn't have any of his own pets and that there's no chance of conflict with another dog or cat around. I went out of town due to a family emergency, and William was great with prompt communication and flexibility. I would absolutely recommend William for taking care of your pets, and he'll be my go to in the future. Thank you William!”
“Denise is great, this was our first time leaving our dog with anyone and felt comfortable since the moment we met! She really worked on getting our dog re accustomed to being kenneled and even put up with our dog waking her up in the middle of night! We will definitely be booking with Denise again for future needs!”
“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.”
“Blake was wonderful with our two dogs! He was so sweet, gentle, and patient with them, and it was clear that he truly cared about making them comfortable. He was also very responsive and easy to communicate with throughout their stay. We would definitely book with him 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.”
“Our pups were living their best lives with Ruth. She was always keeping us updated with photos and videos. We will definitely be booking with her again for any future needs. Would highly recommend😊❤️🐶🐾”
“This was our first time using Rover and let me just say, Alexus was a phenomenal sitter. She sent us picture and video updates everyday. This helped us not only build trust and confidence in her caring for our babies, but it ultimately helped us relax and have a great trip because we had nothing to worry about. We appreciated that so much and looked forward to the updates, seeing them so happy and content. We were almost afraid that when we came to pick them up they wouldn’t want to come home lol. All in all, this experience exceeded our expectations and we couldn’t be more happy with the way our babies were treated and cared for. 10/10 recommend! :)”
“Cathy is truly a blessing! She takes such amazing care of my Hulk, and the way he lights up around her says it all. She communicates so well and always makes me feel at ease when he’s with her. Even his Thanksgiving picture came out perfect he looked so happy and comfortable. Cathy has become our absolute favorite, and we’ll continue coming back to her every time. So grateful for her! 🐾❤️”
“Brenda took amazing care of our Maisel! She sent lots of photos and updates, made homemade treats, and was overall extremely professional! Would highly recommend Brenda to take care of your pets!”
“We highly recommend Elena for cat sitting! She was amazing with our 6 month old kitten Billy we left in her care for over a week. We received stellar communication and pictures daily. Including a couple of cute personalized digital postcards of him! He came back from his vacation very happy and well fed. Overall she went above and beyond with her services. We will definitely be booking with her in the future!”
“Ashley did so great with my Rocky boy! Seriously she kept me updated, sent photos of him! And just loved on my baby while my family and I went on our vacation! We will definitely be using her services again! God bless you Ashley and your care for animals! A true blessing to find you!”
“Mariah and her family are great!! I was going out of the country for a week and was able to contact her at the last moment to watch my 2 babies. My dogs loved their stay! My dogs are super sweet and friendly but can get a little anxious when meeting people or other dogs for the first time, but they immediately felt comfortable and safe in Mariah's home. She has 2 kids and a dog of her own that kept my pups playing every day. My dogs are super picky eaters too, but Mariah tried every tip I offered to get them to eat and eventually got them to eat using her own methods and food. Mariah's whole family loves dogs, and the love, care and patience she showed my 2 dogs allowed me to have a stress free vacation. I even enjoyed getting the daily pic updates while out of the country. I highly recommend Mariah to anyone who wants their dogs to recieve love and the best care when you have to go out of town for any period of time. As long as we're ij Vegas, I won't let my dogs stay anywhere else when I need to take a trip.”
“Karina did a great job keeping me informed on how my dog, Shadow, was doing while in her care. She sent daily pictures and a video. I plan on using her to watch Shadow again soon!”
“Lauren is absolutely fantastic! She took the best care of our pup and I would trust her with him every single time. We got regular updates and knew he was being taken care of every minute we were gone. Will definitely be using her again in the future! Thank you!!!”

I highly recommend Iovanna B's doggie sitting service to anyone seeking reliable and trustworthy care for their pet.”
About: I love pets. I have owned a dog my whole life. On top of owning a dog I also would dog sit for neighbors in my neighborhood. I start dog sitting around the age of 12. I have dog sat puppies who needed to go out a lot as well as play with them a lot to get energy out. I also have watched elderly dogs. I have no problem cleaning up dog messes that can happen in the house. I have dealt with a wide variety of dog fluid due to my own dog. I am one who will get there hands dirty. I also love playing with pets and getting on the floor to get their energy out. I have a dog of my own. I make sure to get her outside multiple times a day as well as getting a walk in once a day. During the week I take my dog to the dog park to get interactions with other dogs. I am a stay at home mom who has a very flexible schedule. I have experience with excited dogs who love seeing new people or just getting out to walk. I make sure when walking dogs to give them time to explore while still keeping them safe. When walking if other people or dogs walk past i make sure the dog I am walking is by my side opposite of those walking past for safety.

About: While I too enjoy traveling I know how it can be when you can’t take your 4 legged family member(s) with you. I have 2 of my own Lionhead )fluff ball) bunnies of my own. I love fur babies of all breeds, shapes and sizes. While I don't have a dog or cat due to my hubbies allergies. I do love them all. Most of my friends or family have dog(s)/cat(s) and they all seem to love me and want my attention when I visit family and friends. When I 1st moved to Dallas my friend needed someone to let her dog out a couple times of day due to her long work hours. I was there to let Jackie out to potty and socialize. I became his Auntie Robin. Now every time I go to visit my friend he thinks I'm there for him and walk and play time. Of course I do this as he is so loveable I'm happy to go for a walk and play with my fur friend while visiting with my friend. I recently cared for my neighbors large and small dogs, 2 cats and a bird on a last minute need while they went away for the holiday weekend. I did home visit twice a day as requested. I would spend 30-45 minutes at the home as the owners requested. The dogs knew me & I was like family. They were happy to see me. I feed them, played with them, let them out to potty and gave appropriate treats for good behavior. My last day they dogs laid on top of me like I was their family. The dogs also listened to me when it was time to kennel them even though they didn't want to go in they did. I currently volunteer for the past 12 years with a domestic rabbit rescue. I go out to the rescue when I can to help, feed, care for special needs bunnies, clean up them yard/x-pens where the bunnies are housed. I give medication when needed. Including medication by means of oral, drops and shots. Including helping with the rescue I also foster bunnies in my home in addition to my 2 fur babies of lionhead bunnies. One of which can be seen in my pictures. Pet sitting/house sitting is my primary job. I enjoy spoiling my pets along with my clients pets. This makes my clients able to enjoy holiday or work trips without worry. As I make sure to treat the clients pet like my own and give lots of love and care like their human.

“Margarita L. has watched my 75 lb basset mixed breed 3 times. She communicates well AND when we get to her house, my dog, who has seperation anxiety, walks right up to the door and walks on in, ignoring me. When we get home after his stay, he sleeps alot, like he was at a kids sleep over and had too much fun. I highly recommend her and will continue to use her services.”
“They took care of Curly while we were gone. They sent pictures every day, and it was nice seeing her having fun with the other dogs. They were also super understanding when our flight got delayed. We'd definitely book with them again!”
“Nubia was super responsive and amicable. My dog was really happy when we picked him up so can tell he had a good time. We were gone for the weekend so all the pictures Nubia shared were super helpful. Definitely recommend!”
“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.”
“Joanne and the family were absolutely amazing! They took so much care of are boy Romeo! This are definitely people you can trust to watch over your fur baby while you are away from home!”
“Brenda took amazing care of our Maisel! She sent lots of photos and updates, made homemade treats, and was overall extremely professional! Would highly recommend Brenda to take care of your pets!”
“Melissa and her family were fabulous! I have never left my puppy before, so I was a bit nervous, but Melissa made it soooo easy! She sent me lots of photos/videos/and updates in regards to my dog and how she was doing. She seemed like she had a wonderful time with Melissa and her kiddos! Will definitely be choosing Melissa again next time I need someone to watch my pup! Thank you so much, Melissa!”
“I loved how friendly Sian was and how relaxed myself and our dogs felt as soon as we walked in the door. This was our first stay and first time meeting Sian and her pup Travis. We will book with her again. One of my dogs never eats when momma is away, but he ate at Sian's house! They got lots of playtime and snuggles. Sian sent the right amount of photos and checkins so that we knew they were good but were not distracted during our vacation. She commuicated when one of our dogs threw up, which isn't unusual for his sensitive stomach.”
“We have never left our boy with anyone outside family. Shelby was great throughout the process. She kept our boy for a week while we were out of town. She sent pics and updates very regularly making the process much smoother and less anxious. Flash was happy and his usual self when we picked him up and we could easily tell he was well taken care of. I don’t think he wanted to leave at first lol. She was also very flexible with our drop off and pick up times. We will definitely use her again next time we need a sitter!”
“Jasmine was great! Very nice and very sweet to my dog. She sent pics and even took her to an event where my dog had fun! Will definitely use her services in the future if need be and I highly recommend. Thank you Jasmine!”
“We loved having Shannon watch our baby! She was so kind, sent regular updates, was super flexible when weather could have impacted our travel, and was just the best! We will absolutely use her again!”
“OH MY!! Kim is an angel! We took out Emma out to meet her and knew she would be the best for our Emma. Emma is a rescue so at times a lot to handle. She thrived with Kim. We couldn’t recommend her enough! The weather was horrible during her stay so Kim took her on excursions. She LOVED it! We were updated constantly with photos and texts! We couldn’t be happier!!”
About: With over 15 years of experience fostering for various rescues and organizations, our family knows exactly what it takes to make every pup feel safe, happy, and loved. My two boys and I adore dogs of all shapes, sizes, and ages—from energetic puppies to gentle senior dogs. Because of our deep rescue background, we’re well-versed in handling different temperaments, sticking to unique routines, and giving dogs the individual care they need to thrive. When your dog stays with us, they aren't just guest pets; they become part of our family. They’ll enjoy plenty of playtime, cozy cuddle sessions, structured routines, and nonstop attention in a warm, dog-loving home. You can travel stress-free knowing your pup is in experienced, affectionate hands, complete with daily photo updates and peace-of-mind check-ins! Caring for pets isn't just something we do—it’s an integral part of who we are as a family. We absolutely adore animals, and opening our hearts and home to support other families when they need a hand brings so much joy to our household. Whether we're giving a dog their daily dose of playtime or comforting a cat in their favorite spot, helping local pet parents care for their beloved companions enriches our lives as much as it does theirs. When pets stay in our home, they truly become a part of our family. We honor their regular routines to keep them feeling safe and comfortable, feeding them exactly as you would at home—whether that means strict mealtimes, special diets, or fun puzzle feeders. Our days are packed with engaging playtime, cozy cuddle sessions, and all the "fill-in family" warmth they need to never feel lonely while you're away. Above all, we believe every guest deserves to be spoiled rotten with extra love, undivided attention, and all the comfort of home!
