“Lorena was absolutely exceptional! She watched my dog, Gizmo, for 17 days and cared for him like he was her own family. She sent multiple photo updates every day, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear from the photos and messages that Gizmo was happy, comfortable, and well loved. Lorena is attentive, reliable, and genuinely caring! I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I would trust her with Gizmo again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-notch care.”
“They were great with my fur babies and very patient with them. My dogs have separation anxiety and like to be near people all the time. They handled them with care, patience and understanding. Very nice couple, overall really good people.”
“Our dog Franny had a wonderful stay with Tom while we were out of town! He sent us pictures of her adventures everyday, which was so comforting to see her having fun while we were away. She enjoyed spending time outside in their large backyard and really loved going on those long daily walks. Franny is already looking forward to the next time she can go back to stay there! 🐾”
“Juan and his family took excellent care of our dogs while we went away for the weekend. The pictures and videos showed them eating well, having fun, being cuddled, and we were happy to hear our Max was given his meds right on schedule. We highly recommend Juan!”
“Ann took great care of Boba! She was incredibly patient and understanding, especially since Boba was in heat at the time and can be a little shy when adjusting to new environments. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. We truly appreciated her attentiveness and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“She took great care of my cat suki and sent me photos and videos of her which was really nice! It’s my first time doing this so I was nervous but will definitely rebook if I need to again!”
“This was a great first experience for me using Rover! I chose Sabrina because of her location and if I take a trip again she will automatically be the first one I contact again for future bookings. She kept me updated on Katsu multiple times a day and sent me pictures as well. Katsu can be a bit high energy and she worked great with him and told me she would like to have him over again. We've found our go-to dog sitter!”
“Amazing care of our dogs, as always! I know they’re getting great attention, lots of love and plenty of cuddles from Mauricio’s kiddos. Sometimes I think they like being with him more than being home!”
“I don’t trust anyone else with my Princess but David and Jennifer!! Any last minute plans of me having to leave on a trip they are there to help and the pictures and videos they send me while I am away of princess just puts a smile on my face! Thank you David & Jennifer ?”
“Elizabeth has watched Sassy multiple times for me. I took Sassy over for this last visit and Sassy was whining at the door to go inside! She loves going over there! I always get cute photos or videos & Elizabeth is so nice and flexible when my flight home got delayed. Thank you again!”
“Rocio is absolutely wonderful! This is the second time that she has watched my pug, and she took such good care of him, again! She sent me videos once or twice a day so I always felt comfortable and updated. If you are looking for a kind and trustworthy sitter, Rocio will be perfect for you!”
“I could not have asked for a better sitter for Rosie. I got multiple texts with images and updates. Esther is also very accomodating with answering any questions or addressing any concerns. Her dedication and care and her countless photos put my mind at ease. My dog is older and she has her quirks but Esther provided a safe environment for Rosie. I felt a peace of mind and I will not hesitate to work with Esther again.”
“Olivia was fantastic with Bunny. I got regular updates, pics, and videos to let me know how she was doing, and it was a great opportunity to get Bunny socialized with Olivia’s dogs and cats. Olivia and her husband were super friendly and easy to work with, and I know Bunny had a great time making new friends! I’ll def be bringing her back 🩵”
“Snehal was so gracious taking my needy kiddo. She welcomed Lila with open arms. Daily Snehal sent many videos and pictures with many updates. Knowing that your kiddo is being cared for like one of her was the most comforting gesture while we were on vacation. Snehal even sacrificed her sleep so she could let my kiddo out every few hours. I would absolutely let her and her family care for Lila again to be back with Lila’s other “family.””

“Karen was amazing with my kitties. She always sent pictures of the food, water, and clean box along with pictures of the kitties playing and cuddling. One of my cats needed to be in an e-collar, and every picture of him that she sent showed him wearing the e-collar. Her detailed visit summaries were correct and accurate descriptions of the kitties’ personalities, showing she actually spent time with them and kept them company during her visits. I am so grateful she took great care of them during the holiday season. Thank you Karen!”

She was very communicative, trustworthy, and sent SO MANY pictures, which made it easier to be away from our boys for so long 💖”
“Eric is definitely my No.1 sitter choice! He was caring and followed all the instructions we left for him. He communicated throughout his visits. I would highly recommend Eric to watch your fur buddies!!!!”
“Faith took amazing care of my dogs while I was away! I had her pop in twice a day to let the dogs out and feed them, and she was punctual for every visit. The dogs were happy in every photo that she sent to me. Overall would definitely rebook with Faith when I go out of town again.”

About: While I don’t have tons of cat care experience yet, I’ve taken care of my neighbor’s cats every now and then, making sure they’re fed, have clean litter, and get some playtime and attention.

“Lola had a wonderful day with Karen. She treated Lola just like family, giving her so much love, affection, and attention. Karen was able to send updates and pictures of Lola throughout the day. I know Karen will be my first go-to person to care for my little angel. I recommend Karen wholeheartedly! She’s wonderful!”
“Lorena is a gem! Super a fun personality! We were a bit nervous to leave our dog, but upon meeting Lorena, our minds were put at ease. She is sweet, caring, and most importantly, passionate! Your dog will go on so many walks with her! Highly recommend.”
“I really appreciate Juan for being able to take my dog for a day of day care at the last possible minute. We had came in from out of town which added to my nerves about leaving him in someone's care but Juan sent me constant updates of Clue playing and enjoying himself while in his care. If we are ever in town again and need services, we will definitely reach out! Thanks again!!”
“Honey had an amazing time. She was well taken care of and happy. I recieved multiple updates throughout the entire day letting me know she was doing well. She had all the attention and breaks she needed. All of the family and dogs were very welcoming which made Honey's first stay away from home even more successful. In just one visit this has become Honey's second home. Breanna and her family make sure all dogs needs are met and go above and beyond to ensure the dogs are happy and owners are at ease with updates. Honey will be back and I would recommend Breanna and her family to anyone looking for daycare or even a long stay.”
“Couldn't imagine leaving our dog with anyone else! This was our first time leaving our dog with anyone and was nervous to leave him but she was great with him and glad we chose the right person for us! If you want someone who is loving and cares about what they do I would use her any day”
“Wen was wonderful with our whoodle! Our dog enjoyed playing with her dogs and running around her backyard. Wen was very accommodating with our schedule. We will definitely be calling on her again whenever we need day camp!”
“Christopher sensed my hesitation from day 1 and he reassured me that Zeno would be in the right hands. He certainly was. Christophers professionalism and kindness made for a great week for Zeno. He provided regular updates and made sure that Zeno had everything he needed, food, water, trips outside. Would definitely highly recommend him!”
“The dog sitter was friendly and attentive, providing great care for my dog, Gigi. They took her on regular walks and made sure she had plenty of playtime, including with their own dog. Gigi seemed to have a wonderful time and was well looked after during her stay. Highly recommended!”
“Sabrina did a great job taking care of Prince. Everything went smoothly, and my dog was well looked after and comfortable. Communication was clear, and I appreciated knowing my dog was in good hands. I’d definitely be happy to use her again and would recommend Sabrina to others!”
“This was Shaggy’s first day of doggy daycare, so I was understandably a little anxious. Alexis was wonderful from start to finish. She took the time to answer my questions, helped me feel comfortable, and treated Shaggy with kindness and care throughout the day. I really appreciated the updates and photos, and it was clear that she was attentive to his needs and focused on making sure he had a positive experience. Shaggy came home happy, and I came away feeling very confident in Alexis’s care. I’m grateful for the peace of mind she gave me and would happily book with her again.”
“Hector was phenomenal in caring for our very large baby, who gets anxious when first departing from us. She was wonderfully cared for and it was incredibly easy to get in and out for drop off and pick up.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for animals of all shapes, sizes, types and breeds. Whether your pup needs a walk, some playtime, or loving care while you’re away, I’m here to help! I provide reliable, caring, and personalized attention to make sure your furry friend feel and are safe and happy. Pet Owner Pet & WildLife Rescuer Volunteer Foster Addition references included in photos. I Love All “My” Doggies 🐶 & Kitties 🐱!! 🥰 I also have experience with bunnies, birds, aquatics, and reptiles. I have a flexible schedule and am home often with the exception of errands, appointments or other Rover (and non~Rover side jobs), throughout the day and week. Any exceptions to my availability is regularly updated on my Rover calendar. House/pet sitting; I am available to discuss this option, but as a pet parent, can be challenging to accept but I definitely will work with you on the details, to make sure everybody’s taken care of in a timely manner, ie potty breaks. I have done pet care in my home along with overnight stays at client’s homes. I have also done dog/puppy and kitten fostering for local area shelters since 2019, as well as on my own, rescuing countless pets and reuniting lost pets with their owners, for decades. I treat all animals the same way I would want mine treated. Your beloved pet becomes THE VIPet, in my home. My pets are fully vaccinated and on monthly flea and tick preventative. I am relatively new to Rover as a pet care provider. True to my nature and love for animals I fall in love and care for each, and every one, I care for in and outside of my home. For dog walking services: Summertime: I prefer before 11 AM or after 7 PM, to avoid excessive overheating of your pet and the ground and when there is normally shade throughout the typical neighborhood in which they can be walked.
“Jennafer was absolutely amazing with my dog, Gary! He had such a great time playing with her dog Duke, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. She even gave Gary a bath, which was such a thoughtful extra touch. I really appreciated how caring, reliable, and accommodating she was, especially on short notice. I highly recommend Jennafer — 10/10 whether you need a quick last-minute sitter or regular Monday through Friday care. Gary came home happy, clean, and well cared for!”
“Gaby was very communicative and accommodating. Lady got to meet the family and even had a photo shoot. Loved getting pictures throughout my shift. It made me smile.”
“Christopher was an amazing choice for me and my family when we needed a dog sitter as we visited Six Flags. Great communication and updates during his care for our fur baby.”
About: Hey yall! My name is Dorothy and I'm a Florida transplant enjoying my time exploring Texas! I'm a lifelong animal lover with plenty of experience caring for pets, including fostering animals in need. At home, I have a sweet cat named Cairo and an energetic puppy named Pharaoh, who loves making new friends. I treat every pet as if they're my own, providing lots of love, playtime, and attention. Whether your furry family member needs care, cuddles, or a playmate, I'm here to help and make them feel at home! I've decided to take pet sitting on as I'm saving up to go back to school this year! After losing my mom to cancer back in April 25, I've found myself reignited to go back to school and complete the nursing program. I'd love to reach my goals in my favorite way, being surrounded by loving furry babies who I can pour attention and love into. Excited to work with you 💕🥰 Looking forward to meeting your pets! I work full time from home so I have plenty of time and attention to give to your sweet babies 🤍 They'll get plenty of walks and potty breaks! I make dog park runs twice a day as there is a park right next to my home. My community has a dog park, walking trail 6 mins away, and I have a fenced in porch area to hang out outside when the weather is nice! I don't have any kids and my home is kept clean so no chances of your babies eating something or getting hurt 🤍
“Ann was amazing. She was consistently in communication with me about Vader and how he was doing. Very active in responding and took very great care of Vader. Thank you so much Ann ♥️”
“WOW ! Andrea is AWESOME. my first time using Rover. My first time raising a puppy. Andrea gave me great piece of mind. Over 10 videos throughout the day. Adira (my pup) appeared super happy and WAS super happy when I picked her up. Not to mention this was a last min. need. Andrea is hands down the best. Highly Recommended and the only sitter I will consider in the future. Oh, in 1 day, Andrea taught Adira to sit on command. Priceless!!!!”
“Candance is amazing! Very accommodating, responses quickly, explains questions & my favorite is she updates you with photos and videos. Rhett Butler had a super fun filled day of playing with her pup! Will book again! High recommended!”

“Andres was awesome and very polite! Excellent communication with both Ryan and Andres, showed up right on time and was great with my very energetic Husky and was able to tire him out enough for him to relax in his kennel for a couple of hrs until I returned home. He took the cutest pictures of him too while on their walk, which I appreciate so much. 🥹 I felt very comfortable leaving my pup with him and hoping to be able to book w him again!”
“Thanks for always being available to help us out even on short notice! Will is great with our pup. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great Rover! All the best Will.”
“Eric was quick to reply and genuinely cared about making my dog’s day. He took my Dalmatian on a nice long walk and also played with him in the backyard on both days I booked. Eric was great about keeping me in the loop and making me feel included while I was away, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. He’s an awesome person, clearly loves what he does, and I’ll absolutely be rebooking with Eric.”
About: When I was little we always had dogs in our home. My parents showed me how to take care of them as if they were oir babies. My most loving memories are with our dogs throughout the years. In the last 8 yars I have helped friends take care of their little ones when they have to travel or work long hours and I have loved it. My furry friends have brought very happy moments and days to my life and i find a lot of joy in caring for them. I work at a foster care agency and i have brought some of the dogs to work and seeing how they make other people's days by running around and playing with them makes my day. I'm currently working from home and have availability throughout the day to go out for walks. I myself walk my own dog during my breaks. I currently live in an apartment and work from home. I am able to watch my dog and visiting furry friends while being at home.
“Wonderful dog walker — my pup’s absolute favorite! My pup loves her so much! In fact he eagerly waits by the door every day for her. She shows up on time with great energy, genuine care, and a consistently positive attitude. Even my neighbors have commented on how fantastic she is with my pup during their walks. Truly reliable, trustworthy, kind, and a bright spot in my dog’s routine. The pics prove he is happy! Highly recommend.”
“100% recommend, was in time. Even waited for me while I couldn’t respond. My girl is so shy but happily went on a walk with her. Would definitely contact her again for macy!”
About: I took care of my dog, Luna, since the first day she was born because her mom didn’t want her. I’d wake up every 2 hours to make sure she ate while she was little because I didn’t want anything to happen to her. Now she’s 4 years old running around with her parents and siblings. I have a cat, she recently turned one. I take her everywhere with me, she loves car rides now. At home I have dogs who I’d always look forward going to play with after work. Pets have been a part of my life for a while now and I enjoy it. When it comes to dogs, puppies, I know that most of the time all they want to do is play and I’m okay with that. I think it’s an important part of their life to keep them healthy and happy.I know some pets don’t like being alone and it’s makes me sad to see pets waiting by the door for their owners to show up. So I look forward to being with them whether it’s playing with them or just keeping them company while you’re out working or running errands.
About: Hello, I am Deanna I am 22 years old and have always had a love for animals. I have cared for my own dog for 16 years, since I was 5 years old, who recently passed. This lifelong experience has given me a deep understanding of pet care, from taking care of a little puppy to providing care for a senior dog. On top of my personal experience, I have also been a dog sitter for dogs with anxiety which required special attention. I am passionate about making sure every pet feels loved and well-cared for. I'm currently working part-time and a full time biomedical college student, but will always make time for your pups! I'm available for boarding on weekdays and weekends at a time we can agree on! I like to keep a calm environment so that your pets feel comfortable. I will always make sure your pups are safe, feel cared for, and not put in any harms way! :)

Don't hesitate with amber she's very nice, kind, and attentive thank you so much. 10/10”

My pup is heading back for my next out of town trip, because she liked staying there.”
