“She was wonderful and took great care of my dog while I was out of town. She was very kind, understanding, and kept me updated with lots of pictures, and updates.

“I left my chocolate lab with Molli as we were passing through her town on our way to our vacation. She had availability just 2 days in advance which was super convenient for us! I received lots of pictures and updates of my dog doing fun things and looking super happy, comfortable, and relaxed. Very happy with the entire experience!”

“Iris was very attentive to our Kitty’s care. She provided great communication throughout the process and sent many photos of our cat and kittens while we were away! Would recommend to others and will request again when needed!”

“IF I COULD GIVE HARLEY 10000 STARS I WOULD! We lost our other furbaby a few months ago and Reggie has been so lonely ever since so when i have to leave him i am a wreck. WHEW, I felt soooooo much peace with harley, she took such good care of my baby the five days we were gone and from the pics my boy LOVES her?. (I think he wanted to see harley walk in instead of us when we got back lol) The pictures and messages eased my mind and I’m just so thankful. He was well taken care of. I will absolutely book harley again! Harley- you’re a gift!! ?”

“Very communicative, sent pictures with her updates, very friendly and professional! Will definitely be having her back when we need our animals cared for or our pup Mrs. Daisy walked again!”


“Norma is phenomenal! She’s not just a dog walker—she made us feel comfortable especially my rescue pup. My pup Lenny absolutely adores her, and I can see why. She’s so caring, attentive, and always goes above and beyond. Not only does she give Lenny great walks, but she also shares helpful tips that show how much she truly understands dogs. I feel so lucky to have found someone so trustworthy and kind. Highly recommend! 🐾”
About: Hey there! A little bit about me: I’ve been with Rover since 2021, but I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. From growing up with a Dalmatian and a Chihuahua to now having my 10 year old Lola (she lives with my parents), dogs and animals have always been part of my life. As a kid, I was always bringing home stray dogs and cats, making sure they found safe, loving homes. I also volunteered at the Gladys Porter Zoo in Brownsville, Texas, where I cared for a variety of animals—from rabbits, guinea pigs, and ferrets to snakes, tortoises, parrots, and even raccoons. Over the years, I’ve pet-sat for countless dogs, cats, and reptiles (I even cared for a friend’s chameleon for two months!). I have extensive experience with senior pets and those with medical needs. I cared for my own senior dog, who lived a happy, full life to the age of 16 and passed away in May 2025. I’ve also cared for many other senior dogs, including pets needing special attention, medication, or extra patience. I truly love all animals—dogs, cats, and everything in between—and I especially adore pets who enjoy a good cuddle. My promise is to care for your pet with the same love, patience, and kindness I’d give my own. Safety and comfort always come first, and I value details and clear directions so that both you and your pet feel secure and stress-free. I’m respectful and very mindful of clients’ homes. I always aim to leave everything just as I found it and you’ll never have to worry about me raiding your favorite snacks! :) I have a flexible schedule, though I kindly ask for at least a week’s notice when booking if possible. I understand that things can come up last minute, and I’ll always do my best to accommodate. I prefer caring for pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable, and I tailor my care based on your specific instructions. No matter what, your pet will receive plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. Thank you for considering me—I look forward to meeting you and your furry, scaly, or feathered family members! I'm looking for owners and families that need a one time sitter or a reoccurring sitter. Pet sitting is my full time job so really whenever I can I like to pick up pet sitting jobs. I currently pet sit often for a friend of mine. So depending on what your pet's schedule is like or what your schedule is like I can be as flexible as I need to be to accommodate your needs. I will provide the best care possible to your home and your pet/s. I am very respectful of people's space, and I am courteous to leave the home exactly the way I arrived. The way I care for pets is of course with love and care. I am an animal lover to the core, so it's pretty easy for me to get along with any animal I come across, especially dogs and cats. I would love to know any special information about the client's pets so that I can care for them as much as I need to and to protect the dog/cat(s) I am caring for, as well as other dogs/cats they may encounter on a walk. The more detail and specifics, the better!
“Lillian is the BEST! We have used her many times for boarding and dog walking and she provides 10 out of 10 service. Ollie loves her and is super excited when he gets to see her. She also is great at accommodating late bookings. You will love her! Thank you Lillian”

About: Hey there, I am Michael! (I recently moved back to South Texas after nearly a decade in Ohio.) I am near Corpus Christi, and I rescued a border collie 12 years ago, she's now a teenager. I am passionate about multicultural and global affairs, truly believing that there is more that unites than divides us. I tell you this because I know when I am entrusting my girl with a stranger I want to know that she will be cared and loved by someone with good intentions. This is what you will get with me. I know the worries that accompany leaving your dog alone, believe me, and I'll be sure to make your time apart as worry-free as possible. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! Best, Michael After working in higher education for over a decade, I'm in the process of figuring out what's next. That in mind, I have time to focus on your furry friend! I don't care for pets in my home, I'm happy to visit your furry friend at your place, I find that they're most at ease and comfortable... at home.
