“Jacqueline and Todd are fantastic! They sent us multiple pictures and videos throughout the day, and we're very gracious when we requested a longer time than what was originally agreed upon. Will certainly board with them again!”
“Rebecca was AWESOME!! It was the first time ever our dog has ever stayed away from us.. she made sure to ask about her so she knew EVERYTHING about Remi.. we got updates with pictures about Remi through our days away! She is awesome and Remi will be staying with her again if she is available ❤️”
“My dogs loved their stay with Andrea! She is lovely and so is her family. They had a great time playing outside and relaxing indoors. She sent me photos throughout their stay as well, which I really appreciated.”
About: As a former veterinary clinic employee, I've developed a deep understanding of canine behavior, health, and well-being. My extensive knowledge allows me to provide personalized care tailored to your pet's unique needs. With my three lovable dogs of my own, I'm a seasoned "fur parent" who understands the importance of creating a loving, safe, and stimulating environment. My home dog park, where dogs can socialize, exercise, and play off-leash, is a unique feature that sets me apart from other sitters. Here, your furry friend will enjoy the freedom of playing with friends while you're away, knowing they're in good hands. My passion for dogs, combined with my professional experience and facilities, make me the perfect sitter for your beloved companion. I understand the importance of flexibility and reliability when it comes to pet care. My schedule allows me to accommodate a range of pet care needs, from daily visits to overnight or multi-day stays. I can visit your furry friend during the day, ensuring they receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need while also providing peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. We are a family-based boarding home, so your pet will receive plenty of love and attention throughout their stay. My husband works from home, which allows for extra supervision and care during the day, and my daughter also has experience with pet care and pet sitting. Together, we create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every pet in our care. Whether you’re away for a few hours, a full day, or several days, I’ll make sure your pet receives the care, comfort, and companionship they deserve. My flexible schedule allows me to adjust to your unique needs so you can feel confident that your pet will be well cared for like part of the family. Welcome to my home, where your furry friend will receive the ultimate pampering experience! You're welcome to bring their own bed to sleep in, or they can choose from one of my beds. But it's not just about sleeping - my in-home dog park is the real showstopper! This spacious yard is designed for pets to run wild, play fetch, and make new friends. And for those who love water, they can splash around in my inground pool. The yard is fully fenced and secure, so you can rest assured that your pet will be safe and happy. My home is a haven for pets, and I'm confident that they'll feel right at home.
“Jessica did an amazing job without boy Archie. She sent plenty of pics and kept us updated on him you could tell he got a lot of love. Will hopefully be using her again soon.”
“Whitney and family are great! They will make your pet feel nice and at home. She even has cats that will be nice to your pooch. I have been wanting mine to have a positive cat experience and hers delivered.”
“I could not have found a better sitter for Cleo. She was very good with my baby girl, and sent me pictures daily to let me know how well she was doing. I will definitely be using Starlet again. Thank you Starlet♥️”
“My very active spoiled puppies had a wonderful visit at Lacey's! I have only left them once before and was worried that they would be too much trouble but Lacey handled them better than I could have hoped!”
“Celeste took amazing care of our pets, Nero and Moose, while we were out of town. This was our first experience traveling and leaving our pets in someone else's care, so naturally we were a little nervous. Celeste immediately put us at ease with her kindness, professionalism, and genuine love for animals. Our travel schedule ended up being somewhat uncertain, and she was incredibly flexible and understanding throughout the entire process. She was so easygoing and accommodating, which made a stressful situation much easier for us. Knowing our pets were in good hands gave us tremendous peace of mind. Nero and Moose were both well cared for, and it was clear that Celeste treated them with the same attention and affection she would if they were her own pets. We truly couldn't have asked for a better experience. When we visit Waco again, we will absolutely be booking with Celeste, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate, and high-quality pet care!”
“Britney watched my 2 schnauzer puppies for 5 days. She offered a meet and greet beforehand which was a kind gesture. My puppies were not yet completely potty trained so I knew they would be a handful. I was a little nervous but she reassured me that they would be fine. She communicated with me daily. Ioriginally booked a late pickup but Our flight was late so I wasn't able to pick that evening. Britney kindly agreed to pick up the next morning. I won't hesitate to use her again.”
“Our other sitter canceled on us last minute and luckily Jessica responded to us right away even though it was so last minute on a holiday weekend. Her whole family was so sweet with our Roxy and we instantly felt at ease when we dropped her off. Highly recommend 👍”
“Dustin took good care of my dogs. Dustin was patient with my shy girl. His dogs were fun playmates. Plenty of room to run. Safe, fenced backyard. Dustin supervised them while they were outside with the pool. He was responsive and sent lots of pictures and videos. We will have him sit Luna and Nova again.”
“This was our first experience with Rover and it was AMAZING. Many thanks to Sarah V. BE-G was so well-cared for; she returned happy, healthy, and exhausted from all the fun she had. BE-G is already looking forward to her next stay. 😊”
“We had the best experience with Paulette! She sent regular photos and updates, bought our dog a cute bandana and even gave us a thank you gift with a handwritten thank you note. Can't recommend enough.”
“Bethany kept our GSP for a full week while we were on vacation. I can’t say enough good things about her. Gunner played in a kiddie pool and sprinkler, went on walks and took naps on the couch. In the many pictures she sent, it looked like he was just part of the family. So thankful to have found Bethany! We highly recommend her!”

“Allison did an amazing job taking care of my 4 fur babies while I was away! I received daily updates and cute pictures. I appreciate how responsive she was when booking with her, and that she accommodated a shorter notice booking. I will definitely be asking her to look after my cats again!”
“Rebecca was a great sitter for my cat, Tucker. She sent daily pictures that were precious and he was sad to leave his new friends. She took great care of Tuck and if I ever had a question, she was quick to respond. I definitely recommend her and would use her services again! Thanks, Rebecca!”

“Taylor is very professional and dependable on taking care of our cats, it’s a nice feeling to come home to a clean litter box and a full feeder and waterer. Will request her again for our next trip, thanks for all the pictures.”
“Laurinda has been amazing taking care of my precious kitty. She is so gentle with animals and really takes time to show them care and affection, which being from a family of animals lovers that treat them like children, means everything to me. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone that ever needed an animal cared for. Book with Laurinda! You won’t regret it!”
“Madison did a great job! Our cats are shy and because she stayed at the house they got more comfortable with her. She fed fish and misted the snake cage, too. Definitely recommend!”
About: I have taken care of dogs all of my life, including friends and family pets. I have a mini Australian shepherd who I adopted and have had the last two years. I have extensive experience with taking care of animals large or small and will love your pets as much as you do. Pet care fits into my current work schedule, but I am able to drop in to check on animals before or after work. If you have specific times or other requests, please let me know. I care for other people's pets exactly how I would care for my own dog. I follow instructions/ any other requests a client may make.
“Jadyn was excellent! She took great care of our cats, followed our schedule for them, and made sure they had the companionship they need while we were away. I hope to work with Jadyn again!”
About: With over 5 years of hands on experience in pet sitting, I’ve had the joy of caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, and small mammals. My services go beyond basic feeding and whatever needs. I schedule my day around the needs of the pets I care for, whether that means early morning walks, mid-day check-ins, or evening feedings and playtime. I carefully plan my week to ensure I can give each pet individual needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize trust, safety, and routine. I start by reviewing any care instructions provided feeding schedules, medication, behavior notes, and emergency contacts so I can follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible.
“Kim was amazing. I had no worries about my cats at all knowing that they were in such great hands. So easy to communicate with, and she updated me daily with a photo and a report. If you’re looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter, look no further. I will definitely be using Kim again in the future!”
“Again, another GREAT job by Britteny! Britteny has been a great sitter for our doodles. They love her! She is dependable, responsible.... and we are very grateful to her for watching our dogs and we don't worry about them when she is taking care of them.”
About: I have two pets at home, 1 cat and 1 dog, and I care for them daily. I have also done pet sitting for friends and family whenever they needed me to. I work part time so I am able to spend time with the fur babies and care for their daily needs as well as play time. Well for my dog I take her out multiple times a day to use the bathroom or play. I also feed her twice a day (along with treats) make sure her water bowl is always filled. For my cat I feed her twice a day and clean the litter box every day along cleaning up the mess made in that area. I make sure to spend plenty of time with her and give her lots of cuddles and treats.

My flexible evening schedule allows me to accommodate their needs, even with last-minute changes. As a passionate pet lover, I am dedicated to providing exceptional care and attention to your beloved pets. Trust me to treat them as if they were my own, ensuring their happiness, health, and well-being every step of the way.

“Very polite young lady. My cats are cautiously fearful of new and unfamiliar places. If a time arises that I need a sitter, I will consider Kiana in hopes that the familiarity will make for a calmer experience.”

“Rebecca and her family did a great job taking care of my Dot for the day so I could enjoy the bathhouse! My Dottie came back to me work out- a sign that she had a blast. Thank you Rebecca.”
“Jacquie and Todd were incredibly kind and accommodating with a family emergency. I trusted them with my precious baby and they did not disappoint me in anyway. They took wonderful care of her for many many hours every single day and were very flexible with my drop off and pick up times. My dog and I were staying in a hotel. She came home tired and happy every single day after her time with them. I really really appreciate everything they did for us.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my love for the Lord and my lifelong love of animals! I have cared for pets of all ages and personalities and currently have a sweet Pit-Lab mix who loves making new friends and playing. I take him on daily walks and enjoy exploring nearby parks and trails, giving pets plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. We have experience giving oral medications and can care for active or senior pets. We provide a loving, stress-free environment, follow routines closely, and keep owners updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident your fur baby is happy and safe. Thank you for the opportunity and to care for your pet while you’re away, they will be in great care! I have a flexible schedule, so your pet will receive constant love, attention, and care. Morning and evening walks are part of the routine, and if your furry friend needs to run and burn energy, trips to a nearby trail can be included for exercise and fun. There is a securely fenced yard where your dog can safely play and enjoy time in the sun, and my dog, Siffre, provides companionship and socialization. Crating can be accommodated if needed, and all playtime is supervised to ensure safety. When visiting public parks, dog parks, or trails, pets are kept leashed and closely monitored at all times. Plenty of love, attention, and mental stimulation are provided, and any special routines or instructions can be followed to help your pet feel comfortable and at home.
“Abbi is so intentional and caring with our dog! It has been a while since we tried a dog sitter because we needed someone who would understand our dog’s anxious tendencies and respond to her cues. I feel SO at peace leaving Ivy with Abbi!! :)”
“I highly recommend Jeannette! She was awesome with my pups, super prompt correspondence, sent pics, and just overall fantastic service! Thank you Jeannette for taking such great care of Sha and Louis!”
About: Long time dog lovers adopted by a pregnant stray cat shortly before our precious senior Brittanys passed. Our pet love has grown! 💜 I do miss the dog walks and silliness, and would be happy to share that again. I have a flexible schedule, and while our cats are mostly pretty chill, we have a separate space they can go if things feel tricky. At present I am a stay at home mom to one elementary aged child so my hours are flexible throughout the week. My husband frequently works from home and we are a pretty low key family of introverts. We have a large fenced yard for play and love to take walks on leashes. Our home is pet friendly and cozy. We have two cats who have their own space they can retreat to when needed. Our son is in kindergarten and has been around pets since birth.

“Dustin was more than accommodating and responsive when booking day care. His house and yard are very well suited for dogs. Murphy seemed to have enjoyed all the doggy and human interaction while we enjoyed the Waco area.”
“Whitney took great care of Foster. Her household of people and pets were welcoming and Foster ran with the pack. He's tired and smiling! I would bring him here again and highly recommend her to anyone.”

“I found Courtney via Rover and needed her services within a few days. She was very gracious and set up a meet & greet to see how my dog would get along with hers, and then took on the task of taking care of my furbaby the very next day! She always updates with pictures, so that I will have zero worries about how things are going. Her house has a nice size yard and she takes my dog, Ellie, on several walks throughout the day. Ellie is always really worn out when I get her home which is a feat on its own! I will be continuing to use Courtney's services. Highly recommend! ”
About: Hello! My name is Yazmin and I’ve loved all 4-legged creatures since I could walk on my own two. Ever since I was little I have been surrounded by animals. From horses and goats on grandma’s farm to parakeets and dogs in my own backyard. I currently have 2 furry friends, one siberian husky who loves a dramatic flare and one yorkshire terrier who, although smaller, is just as mischevious. These pooches are family so I can only make sure that they are well taken care of when I’m gone, which is what all fur parents want, expect and deserve. I hope to provide that same love and care for your own furry friends. I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes but am currently limited to only caring for dogs that are 20 lbs max. I have experience with puppies as well so no pup left behind! Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Thank you and I hope you and your pooches have a paw-some day! 🐾 Although I work full time, I dedicate as much time as I can to my own pups and you can expect for me to do the same with yours. However, I am available full time for boarding most holidays and summers so your furry friends can be taken care of no matter the event. I live in a large home with lots of yard space to walk your pup! I have two dogs, one outdoor who has his own fenced in area and one indoor who has just as much love as I to give. If need be, I can accommodate the indoor space so that your pooch may remain separate from my indoor dog. Your dog deserves to feel welcome, safe and protected so please feel free to express any concerns you may have. Crate and bed must be provided but fear not, more than enough space is available to accommodate your pup!
About: I’ve taken care of animal almost my whole life. I’ve experienced situations others might not know how to handle. I have gone from grooming pets, walking around parks, following precise rules pet owners have left me, and allowing lots of playtime. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, chickens, horses, sheep’s, ducks, fishes, lobsters, and any animals you can imagine on a farm. I am a full time college student, but always make sure to fit the pets needs/schedule into mine. I will let any owner know if for some reason it will not fit into my schedule allowing them to look for someone else. Pet care becomes a natural part of me. It involves feeding, walking, playtime, and grooming, all of which I try to incorporate consistently throughout the day. Weekly tasks might include vet check-ups, cleaning pet areas, and providing extra care like nail trimming or deep cleaning their bedding. It’s about creating a balance where pet care feels like an enjoyable part of the day, not a chore. In my home, I ensure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and any stimulation they need. This includes regular feeding, daily walks, playtime, and grooming sessions. I also focus on maintaining a clean environment for allowing pets to feel clean and smell well.
About: I graduated with my Associates of Applied Science in Veterinary Technology in 2018 while already working in a small animal hospital. I am a former Veterinary Technician with 10+ years of experience in handling, nutrition, and animal body language. I am comfortable administering oral and injectable medications to your pets on daily prescriptions, as well as experienced in senior pet care! I am currently a stay at home mom who is available on most week days, as well as some weekends for your pet care needs. I have two medium breed sized dogs, as well as an indoor cat. All of my animals are house trained and friendly with others! They are furniture loving creatures, with access to beds and couches as they please. I feed them healthy snacks/treats including carrots, apples, or blueberries!

“Sarah takes such good care of Sage with their daily walks and always gives me great notes about how he does on those walks! We love Sarah and will recommend her to everyone!”
About: I love all dogs, every shape size and personality. I have over 20 years experience taking care dogs cats and even farm animals. I would be very happy to help walk, feed and play with your animal. I specialize in caring for dogs with special needs such as epilepsy. I do work from home so my schedule is very open for feedings, walks, and play time. I am the proud "parent" of an 18 year old Long Haired dachshund mix who suffers from epilepsy so I know all the ins and outs of caring for a sick pup. I am also the mother two tow very energetic Aussie doodles. If your dog needs a little extra TLC I might be the girl to help. Please feel free to contact me for more information. I work from home and my schedule is flexible! I am an early riser and love walking. Taking care of dogs would only bring more joy to my day. I understand how stressful it can be for our animals when their owners are away. I am very patient with animals during this time as I know it can be overwhelming to have someone new taking care of them. I love to tailor the animals care to each specific animal based on their needs, emotional and physical.
About: Brady (husband) and I are happy to host your loved ones in our home, fenced-in backyard, and walkable neighborhood. We love animals, the outdoors, and going for looooong walks. We have a few fur friends of our own and are excited to cuddle and work with all the dogs (and cats or birds or lizards!) we can. We really like to get acquainted with our clients and make sure your pet will be as happy as can be while under our care. Feel free to message me about any of our services even if you are just curious about how Rover works! We have a four-bedroom house with space dedicated explicitly to our clients and a large fenced-in backyard. We work on training, socialization, and activities with all of our fur friends. I work remotely and will lecture a few days on Baylor campus with a flexible schedule and Brady works from home. Animals in our care will never be left alone for more than 2 hours at time. Communication is also incredibly important to us. If you do not feel comfortable communicating using the Rover app or dummy number Rover has provided, we cannot provide service for you. Please provide as much information about your pets as possible so we know if we can provide the service you require. This is absolutely in the best interest of you and your loving fur friends. I have a remote job and am a college lecturer with a flexible schedule and my husband works from home. Very rarely will an animal be left for more than 1 hour at a time. Animals are allowed in an out all day. We have fenced areas to keep everyone separate if needed. Please specify if your dog will need extra space.
“Brittany was awesome!! This was our first time using Rover and we were nervous about leaving our girls, but Brittany made it a great experience. She kept us up to date with pictures and comments. She even went above and beyond and brought our packages inside for us. 10/10 recommend. Will definitely be using her again!”
“Did a great job with Coco, was very patient with her. Coco was a little nervous the firstt time she met Lindsey by herself. By their second interaction coco ran out the door with excitement.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals all my life, always opening my heart and home to rescues. Dogs hold a special place in my life, and I take pride in giving them the same love and care I would my own. Friends and family often trust me with their pets, knowing they’ll be safe, happy, and well cared for. I am very flexible and I have open availability throughout the week and weekends. Please let me know what I can do to help in any way! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I follow each client’s care instructions closely, whether it’s diet, routines, or special needs, to ensure consistency and trust. Beyond that, your fur baby will enjoy a loving, safe, and healthy environment filled with attention, play, and plenty of pets.
About: With a lifetime of dedicated experience, I offer professional, reliable care for dogs and cats. My philosophy centers on prioritizing your pet's comfort and happiness by treating them as my own. I maintain a safe, stimulating, and consistent routine, including strict adherence to dietary needs and medication administration. My last 3 dogs lived to be 18 or more years old. I even had a Westin that had Addison Disease. I was told she would not live more than a couple of years, but with daily medication and lots of extra care, she lived to be 19 years old. Whether I am walking your dog or providing transportation, I remain vigilant for any signs of distress. I am trained in First Aid and CPR, and I always keep emergency plans ready to ensure your peace of mind. I find great joy in discovering each pet's unique personality and ensuring they feel loved in their own environment. My responsible and empathetic approach ensures your companions are in excellent hands. I look forward to meeting your furry, feathered, or hoofed family members and giving them the dedicated attention they deserve. NOTE: For animal sitting at your home, I will need the flexibility to tend to my own pets and my elderly mother at my home. They will be short visits and I can then return to your home. Im currently in between jobs and available any hours. Once I find a position to close out my career, ill still be available outside of my work schedule. I am open to caring for your pet in my home, depending on type and size. I also have experience with dogs that require medication.
About: I've lived in a house full of dogs for years so I feel more than qualified to handle a house full of your furry friends or a house with one. I've pet sat for friends and family so I know how important it is your dogs don't feel alone. Nowadays, even with the heat I'm a big fan of taking walks with my dogs. We're both fans of the exercise and I have a small wading pool as a treat after the walk. I normally take them early in the morning or later in the evening when the sun is not at its hottest to protect their feet. I only work part time early mornings so I have a wide open afternoon schedule that is available. I'm willing to be flexible with your schedule. I'm all about positive reinforcement and love to play with dogs. I understand dogs can get rough and I'm not afraid of their nibbles but I do know how to distract and redirect their attention in the case of extreme rough play. I'm a big fan of treats so I do include treats during my time with dogs. As long as there is a fenced in back yard, I don't like to rely too heavily on a leash but like for the dog to feel free to roam.
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs throughout my life of all ages. I’ve had a few dogs of my own that I’ve raised since they were puppies. I’ve had neighbors ask me to pet sit for them. I can bathe, feed, walk, and play with your animals! I am in Waco Texas and am available any weekend to look after your pets! I am only not available Sunday mornings because I’ll be at church! I can do most anything you ask of me. I will also do the basics: walking, feeding, keeping an eye on their health, entertaining, etc.
About: I have parented and fostered dogs for 15 years -- they bring me so much joy! I love working with Rover because I want to help families who are in search of great care for their furry family member while they are busy or away. I absolutely adore dogs and how much they are messengers of love and healing to humans in ways that people just can’t. I believe in being service to people and to animals in order to make a difference. In addition to being a foster mom for shelter dogs when time allows, I’m work as an elementary school teacher. I have been a mommy to a Beagle, Springer Spaniel and now a Boxer, Duffy, and 4-pound Chihuahua, Gizmo, who was a foster fail. Sadly, they have all passed the rainbow bridge. I have fostered and sat for many different breeds, large and small. I have worked for a professional dog walker and sitter in the past year prior to me going back to teaching full time and have experience with opening houses to retrieve dogs for walks as well as overnight sits at a client’s home. I also have experience caring for cats as well. In my spare time, I also like to get together with friends for game time, scuba dive and run. While I live in Woodway, TX I can only take overnight sits or drop in visits, at this time. I can also take in mail, water plants, and care for other smaller animals, such as a bunny, gerbil, or lizard, for no extra charge. While I’m caring for your pup, I make sure they are comfortable by giving them the space they need or spending playtime with them. Whatever your dog needs to feel at ease, I always respond in a loving, kind and confident way. My clients love it that I have a heart that cares deeply about animals -- especially dogs -- and I take the responsibility of being the caregiver of their pet very seriously because I know how much my dogs meant to me and my family. I think they also love my flexibility to do whatever it takes to make them and their fur babies comfortable about Rover’s process and services. I am a full time teacher so i am available during weekends and school breaks including parts of the summer. Depending on the need of the animal, I am also open to keeping an animal while i am at work, which is now about usually 9 hours a day. I have an outside kennel available for the backyard in that case if you would like or cats (out of kennel), birds, gerbils, etc..would be inside the house. I follow directions exactly as the client requests. I make sure that your home and pets are secure and cared for at all times, either in my home or yours. I will send you pictures as frequently as you like (usually once a day) and you are free to check in with me while you are away. I will contact you immediately if there are any issues or concerns while your furry family members are in my care!
About: What sets me apart is the calm, consistent care I provide. I have experience with both energetic puppies and gentle senior pets, and I always tailor my approach to meet each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s playtime, medication, or just quiet cuddles, I treat every animal like they’re my own. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine since I have two cats of my own. Every day includes feeding, fresh water, cleaning the litter box, playtime, and making sure my cat is happy and healthy. I also make time throughout the day to give pets attention, exercise, and lots of love. My work schedule allows me to plan ahead so I can provide dependable care and stick to each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I provide loving care by following each pet’s routine, offering playtime, meals, and cuddles, while keeping their space clean and comfortable, whether at home or theirs.
About: I consider myself a "mother of nature," because no matter what what kind of animal it is I am a natural at nurturing everything from fur-babies to feathered friends. I grew up with dogs, and I've always helped my disabled mom with her 4, now senior, dogs (two pitties, a rat terrier, and a chiweenie.) I love taking them on nature walks, and I even cook chicken or ground beef and rice for them, and use holistic remedies to keep them in top shape for their ages (15+). Animal rescue also comes naturally, because I feel humans are meant to be the keepers of the earth. Every night I feed a colony of stray cats and their neighbors (raccoons, opossums, and ducks.) 😁💖 It's a joy to me to help and have fun with cats and dogs, because I love animals. That's why I'm your fur-baby's favorite auntie! If you feel like I would be a great fit for your pet, let me know when you need me to be available. I'm an entrepreneur, so I can make exceptions and be flexible with scheduling. Currently, I don't have any pets in my household, besides two cats that I allow in for feeding and sometimes sleeping at night or when the weather is bad. They usually prefers to be outside. I take my disabled mom's dogs out every evening, so it's like I have 3 dogs. Although, they don't live with me.

About: I’ve worked with a local business for 5 1/2 years, and have received training over general knowledge about animals, providing pet aid, and knowledge about pet behavior. I love animals and I am familiar with all ranges of animals from domestic to live stock and reptiles. I am familiar with distributing oral and injection medications as well. I love my current job, and I am passionate about spending time with, and taking care of everyone’s babies! I have three dogs and two cats of my own, and I know how it important it is to have peace of mind when you are away from them! I look forward to helping you and your fur babies! I’m working part time at a local pet business, and would love to add some extra work and hours to my schedule for the week. I am familiar with what to look for when walking animals or letting animals outside. I also know what to look for when an animal is experiencing medical issues. All the while, distributing lots of love and attention!
About: I grew up on a farm so we had all sorts of animals, big and small. We were in 4H as well as had multiple pets throughout childhood. I love all animals and know how important it is for the owners to feel that their babies are safe and well cared for. I create my own schedule so I'm available for drop ins during the week as well as weekends. Daily feedings or over nights are easy to accommodate. I have a fenced yard and a young large mixed breed who loves to play. We have plenty of room inside and outside the house.

“Jacqueline and Todd are fantastic! They sent us multiple pictures and videos throughout the day, and we're very gracious when we requested a longer time than what was originally agreed upon. Will certainly board with them again!”
“My dogs loved their stay with Andrea! She is lovely and so is her family. They had a great time playing outside and relaxing indoors. She sent me photos throughout their stay as well, which I really appreciated.”
“Jessica did an amazing job without boy Archie. She sent plenty of pics and kept us updated on him you could tell he got a lot of love. Will hopefully be using her again soon.”
“Whitney and family are great! They will make your pet feel nice and at home. She even has cats that will be nice to your pooch. I have been wanting mine to have a positive cat experience and hers delivered.”
“I could not have found a better sitter for Cleo. She was very good with my baby girl, and sent me pictures daily to let me know how well she was doing. I will definitely be using Starlet again. Thank you Starlet♥️”
“My very active spoiled puppies had a wonderful visit at Lacey's! I have only left them once before and was worried that they would be too much trouble but Lacey handled them better than I could have hoped!”
“Celeste took amazing care of our pets, Nero and Moose, while we were out of town. This was our first experience traveling and leaving our pets in someone else's care, so naturally we were a little nervous. Celeste immediately put us at ease with her kindness, professionalism, and genuine love for animals. Our travel schedule ended up being somewhat uncertain, and she was incredibly flexible and understanding throughout the entire process. She was so easygoing and accommodating, which made a stressful situation much easier for us. Knowing our pets were in good hands gave us tremendous peace of mind. Nero and Moose were both well cared for, and it was clear that Celeste treated them with the same attention and affection she would if they were her own pets. We truly couldn't have asked for a better experience. When we visit Waco again, we will absolutely be booking with Celeste, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate, and high-quality pet care!”
“Our other sitter canceled on us last minute and luckily Jessica responded to us right away even though it was so last minute on a holiday weekend. Her whole family was so sweet with our Roxy and we instantly felt at ease when we dropped her off. Highly recommend 👍”
“Dustin took good care of my dogs. Dustin was patient with my shy girl. His dogs were fun playmates. Plenty of room to run. Safe, fenced backyard. Dustin supervised them while they were outside with the pool. He was responsive and sent lots of pictures and videos. We will have him sit Luna and Nova again.”
“This was our first experience with Rover and it was AMAZING. Many thanks to Sarah V. BE-G was so well-cared for; she returned happy, healthy, and exhausted from all the fun she had. BE-G is already looking forward to her next stay. 😊”
“Bethany kept our GSP for a full week while we were on vacation. I can’t say enough good things about her. Gunner played in a kiddie pool and sprinkler, went on walks and took naps on the couch. In the many pictures she sent, it looked like he was just part of the family. So thankful to have found Bethany! We highly recommend her!”
“Amazing sitter, My Zoey is very needy. Her and her family welcomed my baby with open arms. I received beautiful pictures daily and of her walks. Made my vacation so much easier to enjoy. Will certainly use her again.”
“My 2 dogs felt right at home at Kaylee’s place! I felt confident leaving them with her for over a week. You can tell Kaylee loves dogs and they cannot sense it. Kaylee kept me up to date on how they were doing and sent photos that assured me they were doing well. I plan on using Kaylee in the future - you can’t go wrong with hiring her to care for your pets!”
“Cynthia and her family kept Maggie and Benny for three nights, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the beginning until I picked them up, communication was easy and reassuring, and it was clear they truly enjoy caring for dogs. Maggie and Benny were happy, comfortable, and clearly well loved while they were there. Knowing they were in a safe, attentive, and family-centered home gave me complete peace of mind. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust Cynthia and her family with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for thoughtful, dependable dog care.”
