“Abel & Alisa took my booking last minute when I could find no one else. They went above and beyond my expectations. It was my first time leaving my pups with a strangers and in a city I wasn’t from. I would leave my children with them after seeing the level of care they provided. I was in shock and if I could give them 50 stars I would. They are the literal doggie whisperers. They eased my mind knowing my pups were so well taken care, I mean they even made homemade organic treats and had jazz music time. BOOK THEM!!!!”

“From the meet and greet to dropping off and picking up, Jorge was very accommodating and made the process super easy. Palmer clearly had plenty of fun as he more or less slept for a few days after we got home. We received plenty of updates and photos. I especially appreciate the extra care and attentiveness that was given to Palmer as Palmer found a way to cut on foot days before we were set to leave. Jorge said it was no problem and Palmer was treated well while the wound was healing. I will absolutely be happy to contact Jorge again next time we go out of town.”

“Robin was fantastic with our guys, the pictures she sent showed them relaxed and happy. It was our first time boarding them and we'd definitely work with Robin again!”

“The ONLY person I will ever trust to watch my pup! Period! I have left my frenchie with about 8 different puppy sitters in my area. Not a single one did what Amanda did to love, care, play with, send me pictures and video and included a bath upon pick up for my frenchie. There is nobody better! A+++ service from start to finish. My pup came home happy so thank you Amanda!”

“This is our first time booking through Rover and we are so glad to have found Fernando to take care of our Prince. Fernando is very sweet and took the time to do a meet and greet so we can see how Prince did before we confirmed as we were worried since Prince hasn’t had much interaction with other dogs or people His dogs were also very friendly. His house was very clean & safe and he also has a big fenced in yard. He kept us worry free by sending regular updates and pictures and took very good care of Prince. We plan to book Princes care with Fernando and definitely recommend him.”

“Jeremy was great! He was available for a last minute boarding request and kept consistent communication with pictures of my pup. Thank you, Jeremy! Looking forward to working with you again in the future”

“Our 11 years old canine friend Noah had a blast staying with Jenna and Robert! Their lovely home was quiet, perfectly clean and calm with beautiful back yard outdoor spaces. Noah won’t pass up on a great lounging spot, so I wasn’t surprised when Jenna sent a photo of Noah making himself right at home on their back porch. The regular photo updates were exceptionally awesome - I saved every one! When I picked him up I could tell he was comfortable and calm - Noah gave me all his happy signals to make sure I knew. ;) This was my first time using Rover, and I wish I could give Jenna and Robert a GALAXY of stars for taking such wonderful care of my favorite friend. Thank you!”

“Ariana was wonderful. Very flexible and laid back. I felt totally comfortable leaving my girls with her. They were well cared for, and I received pictures and updates to help my peace of mind. The girls were happy to see us, but have settle right into a contented calm when returning home. It makes it so much easier to leave them a few days knowing they are happy and in good hands while we are gone. We look forward to next time. Thank you so much, Ariana.”
“We absolutely loved boarding our furbabies with Rhoda & Erik! We were a bit nervous because one of our pups is older and hesitant about new places but they did great with him! They sent us pictures and were very responsive throughout the entire stay which put our minds at ease. We will definitely book with them for our next weekend getaway!”

“Jackie was such a great sitter for our golden retriever! She sent pictures and gave updates daily, which was so nice! Will definitely rebook in the future!!”

“Alexander and Taline were fantastic! They sent many pictures and videos per day and had great communication. Our pup got lots of cuddles and attention the entire stay! We will definitely book again!”

“Thank you Brian for caring for our boy on short notice. Brian was very helpful and responsive with sending daily photos and updates. Henry is an only fur child but instantly connected with Brian’s family after some patience and kindness. I couldn’t ask for anything more.”

“Lauren is a lifesaver! Truly the best pet sitter we have used."She and her family show genuine care for my pet frenchie Stella and treat her like their own. They send me pics/updates which eases my mind. Stella comes back calm and happy.”

“My family was very happy to find Kathy. Our two boys had never stayed with anyone for an extended time and we weren’t sure how they would do. Kathy and her family were very welcoming to them and helped all of us feel really good about their stay. I know they had a good time and were safe and well cared for. Kathy kept us updated on them and sent pictures as well. I highly recommend Kathy if you’re looking for a great pet sitter!”

“Martin was great, he sent pictures and videos of my pet the whole trip. He made us feel comfortable and that he truly showed love to my dog, would highly recommend him for anyone looking for a dog sitter.”


“I appreciate Eva's open communication. It seems as if she addressed Zuma's senior needs. She was also very accommodating. Thanks, Eva and family!”

“She's a very sweet girl. Very attentive and respectful. Did a great job taking care of our baby while we were out of town. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”

“Kelley was amazing and sent daily pictures and updates throughout the day. I was worried at first since I’ve never used rover before but I’m super happy that I did and I’m happy that I met Kelley!!!!”

“Mayra was amazing with our puppy! She provided daily status with pictures and videos. My pup was very relaxed and happy when I picked him up. Will definitely recommend her and use her services for future occasions. It’s such a relief to know someone that will take great care of your fur babies!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! She went above and beyond to make sure our pets were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She was incredibly kind, attentive, and thoughtful, and her communication throughout the stay gave us such peace of mind. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our pets and treated them as if they were her own. We’re so grateful for the wonderful care she provided and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitter!”


“Christine is amazing! She is punctual, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. She was able to accommodate my last-minute request while I was in town visiting family and unexpectedly needed someone to care for my dog. I’m always nervous about leaving my dogs with someone new, but Christine immediately put my mind at ease. It was clear that she genuinely cared for my dog and treated him like one of her own. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”


“We had a great experience with our Haley! She took such good care of our kitties while we were away and was always quick to reach out if anything came up, like when their automatic feeder stopped working. She even brought in a package and took out the litter trash for us, which was so thoughtful. We came home to happy cats and really appreciated all her help. We’d definitely book with her again!”


“This was a great first time experience with cat sitting my cat Bruno. I was in a hurry to find anybody in my time of emergency and I’m glad I was able to find Kylie. Bruno ended up liking her and they were a great match. I will be using the service again because I know that there will be more trips to come later and hopefully Kylie will be available to take care of Bruno again.”

“Danielle was wonderful to our baby boy! Open to schedule flexibility and showed up on time each day. She took Wonderful photos and kept his litter box area very clean! She even recorded a video of singing happy birthday to him while we out and it was so cute! Thanks Danielle!”


About: Much like with dogs, I've helped take care of family friends and neighbor's cats upon request. While they weren't the type of pet my parents keep in the house, I adore them and love to do whatever I can to make sure they're happy and well taken care of.
“We highly recommend skyler for her great care she provided our 2 dogs & cat. We had about 2 wk international trip, with Skyler help she took amazing care of our family pets. Morning & evening visits, giving them play time everyday. Out pets felt comfortable & safe with her, we will work definitely again in the future with skyler.”

“Chantal took great care of Legolas! He was so happy when I came home and not as stressed as when I have left him at other times. My first time using Rover with Chantal and I will definitely have her watch Lego again!”

“Brad is great! I set out to make a more comfortable experience for my dogs while I was away and Brad provided that. The pictures speak volumes! He's on time, tentative, and involved. My boys loved him. Thank you for keeping them safe and updating me with your visits!”


“I would highly recommend Gaby as a sitter on Rover. She is not only reliable and trustworthy but also genuinely cares about the pets she takes care of. Her dedication and passion for providing excellent pet care are truly commendable. I have complete confidence in leaving my furry friend in her capable hands. Thank you, Gaby, for being an amazing sitter!”

“Rose was very sweet and really took a vested interest in keeping Macie happy and comfortable. She sent check in pictures and I really appreciated it. I will use her again.”

“1st time user here. Steph responded quickly to my last minute request for daycare for the afternoon. I’m so thankful b/c I was able to spend time with my daughter at Lackland AFB, where I couldn’t take Noob. It was a great stay for him though, and he looked like he had fun playing in the water trough. He was zonked out the rest of the night, so it must’ve been a great time. Can’t wait to use this app/service again! I think him and I are both looking forward to it b/c it was such a positive experience. Thanks Steph!!”

“Always a wonderful time for my 2 doodles at Lauren’s! They always have such a great time playing with their boys and pups. She keeps me updated and I feel extremely safe and assured that my pups are getting the best love and care possible from her. Thanks Lauren!”

About: Home boarding with limited capacity. A calm, family-style environment with a structured routine and constant supervision. Ideal for dogs who thrive on stability, consistency, and a peaceful setting. Dogs are cared for in a structured home environment with planned rest periods. Crates are used positively for meals, sleep, and safety when needed. Overnight Boarding Home boarding in a calm, structured environment. Dogs are not kept in playgroups and are encouraged to rest between short, managed outings. Capacity is intentionally limited. Pricing • Overnight boarding: $50 per night (2-night minimum) Pricing reflects limited capacity, full-time supervision, and a structured, low-stimulation environment. Calm Day Boarding Calm day boarding for dogs who already do well here or as an initial assessment before overnight stays. This service is not traditional daycare. Dogs are not kept in playgroups or overstimulated throughout the day. Instead, they rotate through supervised indoor time, rest periods, and short outdoor breaks. Rate: $45 for the full day Availability is intentionally limited to maintain a calm, controlled environment. Assessment Stays New dogs may be asked to start with a calm day boarding or a short overnight stay before longer bookings are accepted. I’m home full-time, which allows me to maintain consistent routines and provide hands-on supervision throughout the day. Pet care is fully integrated into my daily schedule, not something I fit in between other commitments. This allows for predictable routines, timely breaks, and a calm, well-managed environment. Safety and structure are a top priority in my home. I intentionally keep capacity very limited so that each dog receives individual attention and proper supervision. Dogs are never left unsupervised during interactions. Rest periods are built into the day, and dogs are rotated as needed to maintain a calm and controlled environment. Meals are served separately, and all dogs follow a predictable routine to reduce stress and overstimulation. My home is set up to support calm boarding, with designated rest areas and clear boundaries to ensure comfort and safety for everyone.
“Just like last time, dogs loved their daycare with Abel and Alisa! One of them was shy at first but it's could tell she warmed up to them from the frequent updates they sent. The doggies enjoyed their enrichment like playing with the fetch machine and running in bubbles. Communication is great and I would recommend Abel and Alisa!”

“Bailey and Mia loves their stay with Rhoda and Erik. They even made a new friend! I truly appreciate the time they took to send pictures and updates on my babies. They made them both feel welcomed and comfortable.”


“Kristy is great and very helpful! I’m very skeptical about who I trust to watch my dog but right away, I felt that I wouldn’t have any issues with her and she would take good care of my Zeus and she definitely did. It’s also a plus that Zeus and her pup Zeus get a long and can play together throughout the day! Thanks so much!”

About: Your pet will feel right at home here. I have had dogs for many years so I am comfortable with all kinds of personalities and routines. Our home is full of warmth and friendly kids who love animals and understand how to be gentle and respectful. There’s plenty of space for playtime indoors and out and your pet will enjoy fun walks around our neighborhood, exploring new areas and getting plenty of exercise. Whether your pet loves snuggles, to play, or just a calm place to relax they’ll be treated like part of the family I currently work from home and I’m only out occasionally during the week. I am able to be available for potty breaks and walks throughout the day. I have a fully fenced backyard for dogs to play and have fun. I live in a quiet neighborhood where we can take quick walks to a park. I have three children who live here who love animals as well.

“Ann-Marie was amazing with our fur babies! Jersey is 2 and a little grouchy and temperamental, but he did really well, and Ann-Marie was patient with him. He was actually so happy in all of his pics having a good time. We will definitely be bringing our boys back to her!”

About: My wife and I are lifelong dog lovers who truly enjoy caring for dogs and making them feel safe, comfortable, and at home. We understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and we take that responsibility seriously. Dogs in our care are always supervised, have constant access to clean water, and are wiped clean whenever they get dirty from playing. Our yard is maintained and cleaned daily to ensure they have a clean space to enjoy outside, and inside the home they are free to roam. We share our home with our two friendly dogs, Kodak and Debbie, who are well socialized and used to having other dogs around. They help create a calm, welcoming environment and enjoy meeting new friends. I work from home, and my wife is a stay-at-home dog mom, so dogs in our care are rarely ever left alone. Your pup will receive constant supervision, attention, and affection throughout the day. We live in a clean, dog-friendly home with a secure, fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and enjoy fresh air throughout the day. Dogs are always supervised both indoors and outdoors. The fenced yard allows for frequent potty breaks and playtime in addition to walks and daily activity.
“Amanda was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of my sweet girls and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and comfortable. I’m so grateful for her care and attention. I’d trust her with my pets anytime and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.”

About: Hello! I’ve been in the care and love for dogs ever since I can say the word. I have grown up with dogs my entire life, from my own to taking care of others. I have the ability to love each pet as my own, from all types of breeds and sizes. I see pets as our babies and will take care of them with the same attention and love, as they are family and our important four legged babies. Hello!! My fiancé and I have flexible schedules that allow us to give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day. I work a hybrid schedule and have the flexibility to work from home whenever I have a pet staying with us. This allows me to be home for potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. Between the two of us, your pet will have plenty of company with Zoey and will be treated like part of our family!! We will provide a safe, comfortable, and loving home for every pet we care for. We have a spacious, fully fenced backyard where the dogs can safely play and enjoy plenty of outdoor time. We’re very attentive to their surroundings and always supervise them while outside. We also have our own friendly adorable Golden Retriever Zoey, who loves having company. We’re happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, house rules, feeding schedule, and any special instructions to make their stay feel as comfortable and familiar as possible!
“First time taking Ryder for daycare here. I can tell he had fun from the updates we received, and hes tired now. Haha. We will definitely use them again.”


About: I’ve been a devoted dog mom since 2006 and have had the privilege of sharing my life with three amazing dogs: Yoo Hoo, Toast, and Bunny. My husband and I don’t have children, so our dogs have always been our babies. They were cherished members of our family, and we built our lives around loving and caring for them. Over the years, I cared for my dogs through every stage of life, from playful puppyhood to their golden senior years. Yoo Hoo, Toast, and Bunny each lived long, happy lives and eventually each passed away from old age. Caring for puppies and senior dogs taught me patience, attentiveness, and the importance of adapting to each dog’s unique needs. One of the biggest benefits I can offer is time and attention. Both my husband and I work from home full-time, which means your dog won’t be left alone all day. We’ll be around to provide companionship, potty breaks, playtime, belly rubs, and plenty of love throughout the day. While our home is much quieter these days, our love for dogs remains as strong as ever. Opening our home through Rover is our way of sharing that love with other families. I understand that dogs are family, not just pets, and I will care for your dog with the same kindness, patience, and affection that I gave my own. My goal is simply to provide a safe, comfortable, loving home where you can leave with peace of mind, knowing your dog is being treated like family. Pet care fits very naturally into our daily routine because both my husband and I work from home full-time. This allows us to provide frequent potty breaks, regular exercise, playtime, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. We enjoy having dogs as part of our everyday lives and don’t view their care as a disruption to our routine. Rather, it’s something we genuinely enjoy. Your dog will have company throughout the day, plenty of attention, and a comfortable place to relax while we’re working nearby. Living in Texas, I’m especially mindful of the summer heat and hot pavement. For your dog’s safety, walks and outdoor play are scheduled during the cooler parts of the day, and outdoor time is adjusted based on weather conditions and your dog’s individual needs. Potty breaks are provided throughout the day, but I prioritize preventing overheating and protecting sensitive paw pads from hot surfaces. We understand that every dog has different needs and routines, so we’ll do our best to maintain the schedule they’re used to at home, including feeding times, medication schedules, exercise, and any special instructions you provide. Our goal is to help your dog feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home while you’re away. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. My husband and I have been caring for dogs for years, and because we don’t have children, our pets have always been cherished members of our family. We understand how important it is to know your dog is in a safe, loving environment while you’re away. Because we both work from home full-time, your dog will receive plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. We strive to create a calm, comfortable environment where dogs can relax, play, and feel at home. Our home features a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time, and we only accept one family’s pet at a time. This allows us to provide personalized care and helps create a calm environment without the chaos that can come from multiple unfamiliar dogs sharing a space. We currently do not have any pets in the home, so visiting dogs have the opportunity to settle in comfortably and receive our full attention. I know that every dog is unique, so I take the time to learn about your pet’s routine, preferences, personality, and any special needs before their stay. Whether that means administering medication, following a specific feeding schedule, providing extra cuddle time, or simply giving them a quiet place to rest, I’m committed to providing individualized care. I treat every dog as if they were my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind.

About: I’ve taken care of many pets, I’ve pet volunteered at the SAHS for about 6 months, and I’ve done pet sitting for my friends and family and neighbors for about a year or longer and I am currently working at Barkaritaville pet Resort! I always make sure that your pet(s) is happy and content while providing all the proper care for your pet(s) My availability will vary due to my job, I work 4 days a week most weeks from 7am - 6:30 pm. So on those days I unfortunately don’t have any availability, on my off days I will be happy do walk your dog or stop by for a drop in! I have 3 dogs in my own home, as soon as I wake up I make sure that they are fed and that they have gone outside. For my clients I arrive early, or at a set time they would like me to arrive, make sure that they have gone potty (I stand off to the side and watch if not distracting for the pet) and then I prepare their food and make sure that they eat before I leave. I do sometimes walk them if requested.
About: I have been around dogs my whole life! Ranging from miniature Schnauzer to Dobermens! I am great at playing with dogs and wearing them out(: Also I am available whenever! I am going to be home all summer and would love to walk and play with dogs. I hope you give me a chance to show you my love for dogs and how well I can take care of them. And like I said, I am free all summer and can come watch and take care of a dog when ever you need me too! I also can handle really big dogs, since my family has owned many Dobermens who have reached hundred pounds. I also have my own car so I can get to places on my own. I'm a teacher currently on summer break and I have plenty of time to kill during the week while my boyfriend is at work. I even can do weekends here and there! I will not be able to take care of any pets at my home since it is a rental. But I am more than willing to check on your pets throughout the day, to care for them, or stay with them.
About: I have always loved any and all animals and knew I wanted to work with and care for them. I have volunteered and worked for/at various zoos, aquariums, rescues, and animal hospitals. I am qualified and comfortable administering any types of medical treatments and medications. I also have experience with basic obedience and trick training so I can maintain and reinforce a well mannered and behaved pet. I am a SAHM with five kids, a dog, and cat. I embrace the chaos and have no problems making sure everyone is fed, exercised, and happy and I enjoy doing it! I am home most of the day as all my kids are either homeschooled or in online school.

I live in a safe neighborhood with a beautiful green space nearby for peaceful and exciting walks if requested.

About: I am a reliable and compassionate animal sitter with over 15 years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, fish, rats, and lizards. My long history working with different species has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, routines, and individual needs. In addition to caring for others’ pets, I also have two dogs of my own, which has deepened my sense of responsibility and attentiveness when it comes to animal care. I know how important it is for pet owners to feel confident that their animals are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they are away Currently have open availability for those last minute trips or trips that are planned in advanced. Able to do in home care and for long walks. I provide attentive, reliable care for pets both in my home and in their own homes, depending on what is most comfortable for them and their owners. In my home, I create a calm, safe, and welcoming environment where pets can feel relaxed and cared for, while maintaining their usual routines as much as possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their environment familiar and stress-free by following their normal feeding schedules, playtime routines, and any special instructions provided. I understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities, so I focus on providing patient, individualized care to ensure they feel secure, comfortable, and well looked after while their owners are away.
About: I truly treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m patient, gentle, and make sure each dog feels loved, safe, and understood. I have experience caring for pets with different personalities, from energetic puppies to older dogs who need a softer touch. I pay close attention to routines, body language, and comfort so your pet feels at home even while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine! I’m in school Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., and I also work part-time bartending with a flexible schedule. My evenings and weekends are open, which gives me plenty of time for walks, check-ins, and spending quality time with your pets when you need an extra hand. When caring for pets in your home, I always prioritize their comfort and safety. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel relaxed and secure while you’re away. I follow your instructions carefully, keep things clean and consistent, and always make sure your pets get the love, attention, and care they’re used to.
“Working with Catherine is my first time using this app and I couldn’t be happier! She took great care of my pup and was accommodating with my sporadic schedule for walks and potty breaks. Will continue to work with her!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 8 including my own, families and friends as well. My passion is to take care of animals. I am currently online school and home most days out of the week, I would like to be able to take dogs on walks, have play time and just have a company with me as I work I have a good sized house which I let my pets run free, a fenced in backyard for plenty of potty time, and a nice neighborhood for many walks. I have space for a cage if needed but I do like them to roam around. I’ll be at home to feed them throughout the day, take them outside and cater to their needs.

About: I am the person at the party that would rather hang out with the dog. Loves all furry friends. 10+ years of experience and ongoing I have plenty of time on my hands currently and would love to spend time with all the fur babies weather it be dogs or cats! I will make sure your pet is well cared for under your instructions and make sure they feel loved and enriched! All paws make my day!

“From the meet and greet to dropping off and picking up, Jorge was very accommodating and made the process super easy. Palmer clearly had plenty of fun as he more or less slept for a few days after we got home. We received plenty of updates and photos. I especially appreciate the extra care and attentiveness that was given to Palmer as Palmer found a way to cut on foot days before we were set to leave. Jorge said it was no problem and Palmer was treated well while the wound was healing. I will absolutely be happy to contact Jorge again next time we go out of town.”

“Robin was fantastic with our guys, the pictures she sent showed them relaxed and happy. It was our first time boarding them and we'd definitely work with Robin again!”

“The ONLY person I will ever trust to watch my pup! Period! I have left my frenchie with about 8 different puppy sitters in my area. Not a single one did what Amanda did to love, care, play with, send me pictures and video and included a bath upon pick up for my frenchie. There is nobody better! A+++ service from start to finish. My pup came home happy so thank you Amanda!”

“Jeremy was great! He was available for a last minute boarding request and kept consistent communication with pictures of my pup. Thank you, Jeremy! Looking forward to working with you again in the future”

“Our 11 years old canine friend Noah had a blast staying with Jenna and Robert! Their lovely home was quiet, perfectly clean and calm with beautiful back yard outdoor spaces. Noah won’t pass up on a great lounging spot, so I wasn’t surprised when Jenna sent a photo of Noah making himself right at home on their back porch. The regular photo updates were exceptionally awesome - I saved every one! When I picked him up I could tell he was comfortable and calm - Noah gave me all his happy signals to make sure I knew. ;) This was my first time using Rover, and I wish I could give Jenna and Robert a GALAXY of stars for taking such wonderful care of my favorite friend. Thank you!”

“Ariana was wonderful. Very flexible and laid back. I felt totally comfortable leaving my girls with her. They were well cared for, and I received pictures and updates to help my peace of mind. The girls were happy to see us, but have settle right into a contented calm when returning home. It makes it so much easier to leave them a few days knowing they are happy and in good hands while we are gone. We look forward to next time. Thank you so much, Ariana.”
“Alexander and Taline were fantastic! They sent many pictures and videos per day and had great communication. Our pup got lots of cuddles and attention the entire stay! We will definitely book again!”

“My family was very happy to find Kathy. Our two boys had never stayed with anyone for an extended time and we weren’t sure how they would do. Kathy and her family were very welcoming to them and helped all of us feel really good about their stay. I know they had a good time and were safe and well cared for. Kathy kept us updated on them and sent pictures as well. I highly recommend Kathy if you’re looking for a great pet sitter!”
