“Cecilia was more than Fantastic. She provided a great home for my dog to stay overnight for a few days. Cecilia first introduced hers dogs to mine and they all played great together.

“Thomas and Shelley did an amazing job looking after Zoe. Sent updates and pictures the whole time. Would absolutely love to have them take care of her again.”
“Lorena was the best decision I could’ve made to watch my senior dog Lilly while I was out of town for a week. She followed all my feeding instructions and even let her rule the couch lol. She took Lilly on multiple walks every day because Lilly requested them, so Lilly was very spoiled and entertained. Lorena also updated me at least twice daily with a bunch of pictures that I enjoyed looking through while on my trip. It felt like Lilly was part of her family, and I would highly recommend Lorena for any service she provides. You can tell she loves what she does.❤️”

“Priscilla was amazing!! We brought our bby Milo for a 4 day stay, and Milo had never been away from us so he was very nervous, scared when i left him. Priscilla was very reassuring by sending me pictures and updating me, first couple days he was sad 😞 but priscilla was able to let me FaceTime to let milo hear us and sure ebough after time he started warming up and would not leave priscillas side lol priscilla had alot of patience and did everything to make milo feel comfortable and she made it happen.

They sent us updates every day along with pictures and videos. We had a delay in our returning flight due to weather and Lili gave us no hassle to keep them an extra 6 hours. We will definitely be giving 5 stars and would love to make Lili our sitter for any future trips. Highly recommend. Thank you again Lili and Selena!”
“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.”
“Kathy has watched my dogs now for a little over a year, and I would be devastated if anyone else had to ever watch them. She's the hero of my dog boarding dreams!!! She is accommodating, fair, and most importantly my dogs LOVE her and her families. Which says everything. I have a pretty aggressive dog, and she has worked with her with such grace and patience, that I no longer feel scared or uncertain of what will happen when I leave her. Kathy wakes up early, stays late to accommodate my pick up and drop off schedule, couldn't have found a better family...”
“Mauricio and his family were amazing! He took our dogs on runs and has a great dog park right by his home and spent so much time out there with them. They came home exhausted and happy and very well cared for! Many, many thanks to Mauricio!!!”

“Veronica’s communication was great while she took care of our cat while we were away. She always sent pictures and an update on what our cat was doing during the visits.”
“My cat loves Marla, and I love that Marla is very attentive and on top of things. I have to travel a lot these days due to family circumstances, so this is a blessing. It's great to come home to find my cat is not desperate or distressed the way she has sometimes been when she had other sitters. She's a really social and smart/active cat who needs more than the bare minimum food and water that might work for some other cats. I'm thankful to have found someone who gives her the mental stimulation and affection she needs.”
About: I have a cat named Eevee she’s my bestie helping me get through college!🤭 I understand that some cats love cuddles whereas others just want to be alone. I take very serious any small behavior changes because that’s the way they tell us they’re not okay. I have experience giving medication to a cat and I also know how important it is to give it to them.

“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.

She took care of her like her own, she would walk her almost 4 times a day and she was the most lovely with Maya. I’m so thankful to her, she is simply the best! Thank you Lorena!! 🙏🏻 I know my puppy is a lot and you were so kind to her 🥰”

About: Hi! I’m Fernanda. I care for a maximum of two dogs per day to give each one my full attention and love. I spend 24 hours a day with them (yes, 24!) and take them to different parks so they can explore, sniff around, and have fun. Their walk schedule is pretty active: 5am, 10pm, 3pm, 7pm, and 11:30pm — because there's never a dull moment here! I also send two photos and one video daily, so you can feel at ease seeing how happy and comfortable your pup is. Is your dog shy or needs their own space? No problem! I can keep them separated from my own dogs. If they have trouble sleeping alone, I’ll stay close so they feel safe. They’re welcome on the couch, on the bed, and of course, they’ll receive all the love, patience, and cuddles they need to feel at home. Important: I speak only Spanish, but my husband speaks both Spanish and English — so if you need to communicate in English, we’ve got you covered! I provide 24/7 care for your dog, with daily walks to parks, regular updates, and lots of love and attention in a safe, homely environment. In my home, your dog will enjoy a safe, calm environment with plenty of space to play. I provide 24/7 supervision, daily walks, and constant updates.
“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!”
“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.”
“Look no further and contact Candace! Georgie is a special needs dog with a ridiculous amount of energy and separation anxiety. When Candace opened the door and got right on the ground to greet her, Georgie bounded in and never looked back. Candace and wonderful Jimmy and their family are pure dog people. Their home is dog heaven with outside access all the time, toys, cozy dog areas, soft couches and humans always available. Their adorable dogs are super friendly and welcoming. I can’t say enough how loving and sweet Candace and Jimmy are. Georgie loved them and I grew concerned she wouldn’t leave!!! Candace has a lifetime of experience and an unequaled passion for dogs. I loved her pictures, updates and instant responses. Georgie is just this second interrupting to ask if she could go back this week...”
“Chris is a great dog caregiver, he kept me posted with pictures and videos of my puppy. Chris is always understanding and caring. Definitely continue to request for his help anytime is needed.”
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 🤍
“Absolutely pleased with Lauren’s care! She took our Foxy last minute and it meant so much to us out of towners so our pup didn’t have to endure the storm as we explored!! She sent lots of pics and videos and kept us updated all evening. Bless you, Lauren!!”
“Love these guys and so do my puppies. Appreciate the regular communication and pictures during their stay. Our pups have stayed with Jennifer and David 3/4 times and will continue to do so!”

“Allison did amazing! She was so great walking Fenway and with excellent communication. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone who needed some trustworthy pet care:)”
“My husband and I couldn’t be happier with the care and attention our dog received from Mireya. This being her first time walking Harper, it was clear that she genuinely loves animals and takes her responsibility seriously. She was reliable, professional, and kept us updated throughout the walk, which gave us complete peace of mind. Our dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would trust Mireya with him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog walker.”

“Ryan was fantastic with Lalo! I was away on a retreat and came home to a very happy, well-cared-for pup. Ryan was incredibly diligent about walks, feeding, and making sure Lalo stayed hydrated and safe. It’s a huge relief to find a sitter who is this reliable and attentive. I highly recommend Ryan to anyone looking for top-tier care for their dog. Five stars!”
“Sam was very attentive and helped out greatly when we requested small details for the dogs. Definitely will be using him in the future and highly recommend him.”
“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: 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: I have always had a family dog (or two) around and know how important they are to you! Just recently we lost our two dogs (Conner—16 and Copper—13) and miss the love and energy they brought to our lives! I know the peace of mind having good help can bring to a pet owner and believe I can help whenever your furbaby needs me! I’m currently a stay-at-home mom, so I will have plenty of time to give your pet all the attention they need! I enjoy being outside so potty breaks and walks are no bother at all! My backyard is fully fenced in with grass in the majority of the yard. I am very good at recognizing when dogs need to burn off energy with play time or when they need extra attention. If you have a routine/schedule that works for your pet, I am happy to oblige!
About: I have 3+ Years of Dog Experience & Hands-On Experience with Canine Healthcare. I’m a pre-med student with over three years of experience caring for dogs and a genuine passion for their health and well-being. As a proud weenie dog parent, I’ve personally navigated my own puppy’s medical challenges alongside him, including trips to the Texas A&M Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital to help find solutions and get him the care he needed. These experiences have deepened my love for animals and strengthened my passion for canine healthcare. Your pup will always be treated with the same love, patience, and care I give my own!❤️ Here’s a polished version for your Rover profile: I work at a neurology clinic only two days a week and have plenty of availability for your pets! I’m available Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends, as well as Tuesdays and Thursdays after 6 PM. I’m also available for 24/7 potty breaks and care on my available days, excluding Tuesdays and Thursdays. Your pup will be staying in a safe, loving, and welcoming home with my friendly 6-month-old Dachshund, who is well-socialized with other dogs and regularly enjoys trips to the dog park!
“We love Marla, she takes such good care of our pup and she is very accommodating to our changing schedule! It puts our minds at ease to know someone comes to visit Layla while we are at work and we know she looks forward to Marla’s visits :)”
“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!”
“Will could not have been better! We really appreciated the pictures and updates in the report cards. Will really helped us out. I would highly recommend Will for anyone in need of a good friend for your pup!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting in homes and in my own home for 7 years! I’m responsible and great with dogs of all ages. I love watching new fur babies. I currently only work part time so my schedule is pretty open. I’m available to walk, board, or drop in home visits for your pets. I live in an apartment and have 2 pets of my own. I live 30 steps from the dog park and take my own there at least 3x a day.
About: I have 3 cats and thought this would be a great idea for making some extra money since I have a bit more free time lately! I’ve house sat for many friends and family and have always had a great time. My previous cat lived to be 20 so I would say I’m very experienced :) I’m currently very available so I can do drop in visits anytime right now! Drop ins for cat households only at this time. Thank you! Daily check ins on the kitties to make sure everyone is safe and happy. Even scaredy cats will be checked on and given love and treats.

“Excellent service! I plan to use Dave again for future trips for sure. He seems very knowledgeable about dog behavior. My dog has behaviors sometimes around other dogs so I really wanted someone trustworthy who could manage this behavior and Dave was a perfect fit. I also love that he has cameras in the home to watch the dogs if he ever leaves. I know my fur baby was safe while I was away.”
“Laila was amazing!! She took great care of my babies and sent me pictures and updated me every day. I had brought my dogs over to meet Laila before the date that I needed her, and we were able to talk all about my dogs and their needs. This meet and greet was a good chance for my dogs to get to know Laila and they loved her! When I dropped my dogs off before going on my trip they were so excited and I could tell they were already comfortable since they had been there before. She followed all of my instructions and gave my doggies lots of love and everything that they needed while I was on my trip. I highly recommend her and would definitely book with her again! Thanks Laila!”
“Lauren G was absolutely amazing!! I loved her enthusiasm and attention to job she is providing, making it more than worth the cost of just “ boarding”. Sending videos and pictures daily with updates and “social exposure “ to other dogs she cares for.”

“I had a good feeling about Blair right away from our meet and greet. By the time I picked up my girls from their first daycare with her, I knew that she had actually taken time to get to know and understand my dogs and didn’t just park them in her yard and call it a day. Thank you and highly recommend!”
