“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.”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter for Bella, Luna, and Charles. From the start, she was professional, attentive, and clearly cared deeply about my pets’ well-being—but what truly set her apart was how she handled an unexpected situation. One of my cats had a mishap while I was away, and she went completely above and beyond. She handled everything with such care, patience, and compassion, keeping me informed while also taking the initiative to make sure my pets were comfortable, clean, and safe. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing someone so capable and thoughtful was there. On top of that, Bella and Luna were happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved when I returned, and Charles was in great spirits too. It’s not easy to trust someone with your pets, but she made it effortless. I am incredibly grateful and would absolutely book her again without hesitation. Highly recommend!”

About: My parents adopted a 3 month old kitten when I was 18, about to turn 19 years old. I was the one who helped my mom pick the right supplies. She didn’t know about kitten food, the difference between wet and dry food, or the best kind of litter to get. I helped walk her through it, till she could do it on her own. I knew thanks to my experience working at a pet store, and having extended family members who owned cats. I knew all those one’s my entire life. I also kept a cat fed for a neighbor. Just regular pop ins.
“Jennifer is amazing! She has a gift with cats. I have rather shy cats, 4 out of 6 will hide with strangers. She was able to win 5 out of 6 over immediately. Even with the one that stayed hidden she would keep in contact with me to make sure she is OK as I have cameras up to make sure they are good. She did everything we asked and made sure our Gnomio had his diabetic medicine every day. This was the first time I was able to go on vacation and relax knowing my babies were well taken care of. I will definitely be a repeat customer.”
About: Hi, I’m Kaylee! I’m based in Rockwall and I offer drop-in visits and house sitting for cats, which means your kitty gets to stay exactly where they’re most comfortable: home. I’ll be honest, I’m primarily a dog person, but I have a genuine soft spot for cats and I’ve been around them my whole life. I know that every cat is completely different. Some want to be your best friend the second you walk in, and some need you to earn it. I read the room, respect their boundaries, and never force interaction, but I’m always ready with playtime and attention if they’re into it. I have a healthcare background and a graduate degree in nutrition, so detailed care instructions, medications, special diets, and specific routines are things I take seriously and follow to the letter. Your cat’s needs won’t get glossed over. For drop-ins I make sure food, water, litter, and any medications are handled, and I always stick around long enough to make sure they’re doing well before I leave. For house sitting, your home and your cat both get my full, unhurried attention. Expect photo updates so you can see for yourself that your independent little creature is thriving.
“This was the first time I used Rover, and I was so nervous. The second Ella set foot in my house I felt at ease (which not an easy thing to do). I love the photos from every visit. Already booking my trip with Ella.”
“Kayleigh did an amazing job taking care of my 5 month old kitten while we were out of town on vacation. She played with her and gave her lots of love and attention. She sent me so many great photos of Mia too while we were away. I highly recommend her!”
“OMG...Trinity is awesome!! If you need a reliable and caring dog sitter...look no further! I could not have asked for a better sitter for our Chloe! Trinity followed our directions to a tee. She even took the initiative to handle certain matters on her own for the benefit and comfort of our pet! Trinity kept me updated daily and sent pictures of Chloe so I didn't have to wonder how she was doing. I will definitely use Trinity again...and, so should you!! Thanks, again, Trinity...”
About: As a lifelong cat lover and devoted cat parent, I know that every feline has their own unique personality—and I’m here to celebrate it! Whether your cat is a energetic playful pouncer, a shy hide-and-seek champion, or a vocal cuddle bug, I give them the space, patience, and love to be their true quirky selves. Having cared for my own cat for years, I understand feline body language, routine maintenance, and the subtle cues that mean a cat needs space versus extra affection. You can count on reliable feedings, pristine litter box maintenance, engaging playtime, and plenty of cozy companionship while you're away. I'll also keep you updated with daily photos and notes so you can enjoy your trip with total peace of mind

About: I have owned dogs my entire life varying in all kinds of ages, breeds, and health issues. My dogs are my world and I will treat your dog as if they are my own. I have a flexible schedule being in real estate so that makes it easy for me to schedule these extra dog walkings or check in's for my neighbors. I personally have a dog door with a fenced yard for my two dogs and have spent a lot of time training them so I trust them with the dog door open when I leave the house. For other people's pets, I will of course follow their rules if they crate or leave them free roaming in the house.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I first learned to walk, from high-energy pups to mellow seniors. Whether your fur baby is a playful adventurer or a cozy couch potato, I tailor my care to their vibe. I treat every pet like my own—with love, patience, and way too many photos (you’ll get daily updates, promise 📸🐾). I offer in-home boarding in a calm, clean, dog-friendly space—think soft blankets, good energy, and lots of tail wags. If your dog is a little anxious, picky, or just needs that gentle feminine touch, you’ve found the right sitter. I have two sons that love dogs just as much as I do and I also have an old senior citizen grandpa named Hercules🐕. Don’t worry he sleeps all day and is impressed by food and food only! 😂 ✅I’m available for meet and greets always. ✅Special needs, shy and senior friendly! ✅Puppy friendly!! My vibe is grounded, nurturing, and detail-oriented—but also fun. I’ll send updates, stick to your dog’s routine, and make sure they feel totally loved while you're away. Let’s connect! Your pet deserves nothing less than intentional care from someone who adores what they do 💕 As a stay-at-home mom, my days naturally revolve around care, connection, and consistency—so adding pets into that rhythm feels seamless. I’m already tuned in to routines like morning walks, mealtimes, and keeping a calm, nurturing environment. Whether it’s letting a pup sunbathe while I sip coffee or sneaking in cuddles during nap time, animals easily become part of the flow. I love the energy they bring to the house—whether playful or peaceful—and I’m always present to notice what they need. Pets fit right into our home like family, and caring for them never feels like a chore—it’s just another way I get to show up with love and intention each day. When caring for pets, I focus on making them feel safe, loved, and right at home. I follow their routines closely—whether that’s specific feeding times, medications, or extra snuggles before bed. I have a secure, fully fenced-in yard where dogs can play, sniff, and stretch their legs freely under my supervision. Inside, they’ll find cozy spaces to relax and lots of attention throughout the day. I treat every pet like part of the family, tuning into their needs and making sure they’re comfortable, engaged, and always cared for with kindness and patience.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give every pet. I understand that each pet has its own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m dependable, patient, and committed to following each owner’s instructions carefully. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or simply keeping a pet company, I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to provide a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I start classes at UTD on August 24, but I’ll still have time to provide dependable care before and after classes, as well as on many weekends. I also attend church on Thursdays and Sundays, so I plan my schedule around those commitments. I keep my availability updated and only accept bookings I can fully commit to, so every pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medications (if needed), and any special care requests. I take time to help pets feel comfortable and make sure they always have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a safe environment. During walks, I keep dogs securely leashed and stay aware of our surroundings. In a client’s home, I treat both the home and pets with respect, keep everything clean and secure, and provide regular updates with photos so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.

About: I have worked at Petsmart before. At Petsmart we are required to know what makes a dog comfortable while at a public place or somewhere other than home. I have watched over puppies 2 and 3 months old for my in laws a couple times now. My parents got a kitten that I helped take care of till I moved out about 10 months later. I own a chinchilla which is an exotic small animal. I’ve had her for a year. I’ve been fascinated by pets since I was a child and always do my research before taking care of an animal. I look forward to being of assistance. I fluctuate between part time and full time. I’m usually free tuesdays, wednesdays, and thursdays. I can schedule the time off if it’s 3 or 4 weeks in advance. I usually work mornings except for mondays, when I work evenings. I can always visit the pup or kitty during break and then spend the rest of the day with them after work. This will most likely be temporary until I can get a solid schedule here or at Home Depot. My apartment complex is very pet friendly. My building is only a few steps away from a dog park inside of the complex. The clubhouse has dog treats and I can provide as well based on age and diet. I will always ask any questions about what you would prefer for your fur baby. I have a chinchilla that stays in a cage as long as your pet is around. She is curious and will not hurt your pet even if they stick a paw in between the bars, which is hard to do anyways. My living room is a large space for any pet. I’m currently working part time, but I’m willing to do weekly stays with 2-3 weeks in advance notice. I also will require meet ups before every service in a public place. This is not going to be required for existing clients. I live in an apartment so I don’t currently own any pets, but everyone in my direct and extended family either has, or has had one that I’ve grown up with. I’m very familiar with animal routines and attributes. If something is bothering your pet, I will notice. I always keep in constant contact with whoever I petsit or help take care of for anything I may notice. Most of the time it’s things owners are already aware of, but I’ve always found it never hurts to ask and inform.

My goal is to make your pets as comfortable as possible while you are away, even with their quirks. Need me to sing your dog a song to get them to eat? You got it! Your cat needs to snuggle with their favorite toy to fall asleep? Say no more!
About: I have worked with animals my whole life. I absolutely adore animals, any animals! I use to work with my aunt at the clinic she works at helping her care, feed, water, clean and play with the animals that would board there. I also help her with the animals that she fosters. I do lots of research on animals and learn how to handle them and care for them. I am pretty acknowledged with animals. I know different types of breeds and their behaviors and the care they need. I would be an awesome candidate to care for your animals because I would love and treat them as my own and put their needs above mine, it would be a dream to care for any and all of your animals! Please don't hesitate to ask me anything! I am available anytime to help you and your animals! I absolutely love caring for animals and it’s all I want to do! I have a pretty flexible schedule at the moment. I live in an apartment that is fenced in and on the bottom floor so your pet will be very safe! I do home visits as well!
About: Hi, I’m Kaylee! I’m based in Rockwall and I live with four dogs, so I understand better than most what different personalities, energy levels, and quirks look like and I meet every pet exactly where they are. I have a background in healthcare and just finished my graduate degree in nutrition, so I’m not exaggerating when I say I take animal wellness seriously. I’m completely comfortable with medications, special feeding schedules, dietary needs, or any specific instructions you leave, following care protocols is genuinely second nature to me. I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life, and I know how much peace of mind matters when you hand your pet off to someone. My goal is always to send you home (or to work, or on your trip) feeling totally at ease. Walks are tailored to your dog’s energy and personality, not just a checkbox. Drop-ins are never rushed; I stay, I play, I make sure your pet feels loved. House sitting means your home and your pet both get my full attention and care. Expect photos, videos, and updates throughout every visit because you shouldn’t have to wonder how they’re doing. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I’m currently in a flexible period between positions, so I have a lot of availability right now, including weekends and most weekdays. I genuinely enjoy building relationships with regular clients and their pets, so don’t hesitate to reach out even if your needs are recurring or ongoing! Since I offer walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, I’m coming to your pet in their own space, which I think is one of the best things for an animal’s comfort and routine. I treat every client’s home with complete respect and care. I’m experienced with following detailed instructions, administering medications, and handling pets of varying temperaments. Your pet stays in their familiar environment, their routine stays intact, and you get someone with a healthcare background making sure everything runs smoothly while you’re away.
About: I graduated from Texas Tech with a BS Animal Science and I am currently attending KSU for my Masters of Biomedical Sciences! I worked at a veterinary clinic for 3 years before moving here to Manhattan! I have loads of experience with working with animals and veterinary services. I love all animals- from fur to scales. My class schedule is everyday, but I am out of class by 3 pm (daily class schedule changes depending on the day) I can drop in early morning and afternoons I make sure they stay safe and always have an eye on them. I feed properly, administer any medications, and provide any enrichment or excercise!

“Namita and her family are great! I am so grateful for them and how they cared for Major when I was away! They are officially my go to sitters! While I was away, I got pictures/videos every day! Such amazing people!”
“What can I say about William except my Barney came back a calm and well taken care of pooch!! Thank you for watching him over Christmas!! We will be using William for our next vacay!!”
“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.”
“Denise sent pictures every day! She made it so much easier being away from my boys. They also looked very happy in every photo. We will definitely use Denise again in the future. 💗”
“Paige and her husband were so great with my pups. They made my dogs Demo and Cas feel so comfortable and you can tell they had the best time! I am so glad I found them and will definitely use their services in the future!”
“Eric was amazing! He was very responsive and accommodating. Noodles warmed up quickly and I could tell he had a great time. We will definitely use Eric anytime we travel in the future. Thank you Eric!”
“Aeden was wonderful with our girl Kona! He is a great communicator and Kona seemed happy to be there! We are already scheduled to leave Kona and our other dog with Aeden and know they will be well cared for!”
“Great experience! We were able to enjoy our trip without worrying about our dog. They sent updates and videos throughout the stay, which gave us peace of mind knowing our dog was well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Madison watched our cat and dog for a week, and they came back healthy and happy. I forgot to send my husband with bowls for the cat and Madison used some of hers thankfully! I received pictures and videos of my pets while I was away, and it was nice knowing they were getting lots of attention while we were out of town.”
“Professional and friendly. I had to extend my stay for a business trip and Haley was able to take Bailey on an extra day. So grateful for that! It helped not to worry about her, and able to focus on work. Haley and her family gave Bailey love and attention as if she never left home. Thank you! Will be using Haley again in the future.”
“She was so awesome! We are so grateful and recommend Kathryn to others. We will definitely want to get her service again in the future. Thank you, Kathryn!”
“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.”
“Jason and his wife took wonderful care of my 2 pups! It is difficult finding a dog sitter willing to administer insulin for my geriatric pup but they were more than willing!”
“I am quite convinced that Rupert loves Mychelle more than he loves us. Mychelle similarly adores him and sends us frequent pictures and videos so this anxious millennial pet parents feels better about leaving him with her for literal weeks this year. I drive an hour round trip each time to drop Rupert with her that’s how obsessed our family is with her!”
“Ariel is our go to anytime we have to leave Mochi. She's loving, dilligent with sending pictures of our fur baby (our toddler is so happy to see him when we're gone) and she takes phenomenal care of him. He adores Ariel and her family, as do we. Mochi always looks happy and healthy when we return and we have peace of mind knowing he's in good hands. Thank you Ariel!!”
