“We feel so lucky to have found Lacey! She was very responsive and sent us lots of sweet pictures of our dog cuddling with her and playing with other dogs. We get worried leaving our dog due to some medical issues, but she let us come over and meet her and her dog beforehand so our dog could get used to her home. It was clear our dog was well taken care of care of and had a great time at her house! I highly recommend her.”
“Sabrina was awesome with our dog and he seemed to really enjoy his time with Sabrina and her family. I would highly recommend Sabrina and I will definitely be using her services in the future.”
“I’m over the moon happy that we found Allison & Nicholas! I am very emotional when it comes to my dog but they kept me updated on how he was doing and sent me picture and videos of him having the best time! Made it easier for me to leave him knowing he was at home away from home!! Ziggy had the best time and I know when we do a longer stay next time he’s in the best hands!!”
“John & Erika were amazing! They took such good care of our dog. Thank you so much for all the updates and photos. It gave us a sense of peace knowing she was safe.”
“Terry took care of my dog (again) during a last minute booking. He’s one of the only dog sitters I trust with my dog. If you’re ever concerned with your dog being around others, he has an amazing system in place to make sure incompatible dogs stay separate and happy.”
“I highly recommend her! I had to travel out of state for an entire week, and this was a very last-minute booking that I made just a day before leaving. She was incredibly accommodating and helped me out when I was in a difficult spot. Throughout the week, she sent me daily photos and updates of my dogs, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. It was such a relief to see them happy, comfortable, and having a great time. She also has a huge backyard where the dogs could run around and play. Every photo she sent showed them enjoying themselves, and they always looked happy and well cared for. She is kind, reliable, and genuinely cares about the animals she watches. Leaving your pets behind can be stressful, but she made the entire experience easy and worry-free. I would absolutely trust her with my dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter.”
“We used Kelli to board our puppy for the first time and she made it so easy! We got pictures and videos with updates every day which made it so much easier to be away from him. Would highly recommend!”
“Lauren and Holden did an amazing job watching our two dogs Essie and Chloe. It was Essie’s first time boarding and we were nervous but Lauren was so accommodating and kind. It was clear that the dogs felt at home and were well taken care of. We received plenty of photos of the dogs playing together outside and they had a great time! We will be booking with Lauren and Holden again in the future.”
“April is an awesome pet parent! We get several pictures each day along with a summary of her daily activities. Plus, she is super flexible when plans change. Molly always pulls us up to the house when we go to drop her off, so we KNOW she is well cared for!!”
“Leslie & Johnathan were awesome! We had an emergency and needed to drop our dog off for a few nights while we were in the hospital. After all of our usual boarders were unavailable, they quickly responded and took our dog in with short notice. Truly lifesavers, and he had a super fun time!”
“Bethany was incredibly kind and generous in her care of our fur baby while we were traveling over the holiday. She provided regular updates throughout. She was extremely dependable and responsive when we had questions. Our Sophie was extremely happy when we picked her up…. She’d clearly bonded with Bethany and felt very comfortable in her home. Thank you Bethany! We sincerely appreciate your help.”
“Maria is a great and loving pet mom! I will definetely ask her next time I need a warm house to take care of my babies!!! She sent us photos and notes on how they were doing. Thanks a lot Maria!!!”
“Best dogsitters EVER! My little Havanese, Mocha, loves to visit Anita and Earlex. She was rescued from a breeder situation and boarding her here has really helped her get used to having other dogs around in her space. I really feel like they love Mocha and she loves them back.”
“Jessica was a great sitter for my Leo. Her entire family embraced him and he was in really great care. She kept us updated with pics the entire weekend to put our minds at ease. Highly recommend her.”
“Autumn was the best! Her and her family took care of both of my pups for a couple days and I would highly recommend + bring them again. We did a meet and great where I got to meet the family and they met the pups so that was great to do beforehand. Thanks again for loving on the pups!”

“I had to go out of town for the first time since my kitty had to start taking medication twice a day and I needed someone to give her meds to her. I was very nervous about hiring someone kitty didn’t know but Kim handled it with great care and professionalism and I was so relieved to have found her. She was punctual, thorough, and left detailed status updates for every drop in she made. I will be remembering Kim for any trips I have to take in the future!”
“Hilda did a great job taking care of our cats over the Holiday! We were nervous leaving them for a whole week, but she offered a meet and greet and made us feel much more comfortable leaving them. She took plenty of pictures and ensured she left our house cleaner than it was left. Will be rebooking for other times we are gone!”

“We can't recommend Casandra enough—she is absolutely amazing! We trusted her with our babies, and she exceeded all expectations. She’s incredibly attentive to instructions, patient, and shows so much love to our cats. She truly cared for them as if they were her own.”
“Highly Recommended! Shiru and her husband are just awesome. I always have cat sitter come to our house to check on the boys. So this is my first time to board my boys. My husband and I were a little apprehensive. However, after meeting them, our apprehension were gone. Through the series of pictures Shiru sent everyday, we were assured that Pinky and Parker were doing very good and very happy. I will surely board my boys with them again. To Shiru and her husband - thank you very much for taking care of my boys.”

I have a fenced backyard and alot of inside square footage. I am home and available for feedings, walking and play time. Nice neighborhood with parks nearby as well.
“Clare was very sweet, friendly, and professional. From the moment I saw her profile on Rover, I felt like my dog would be in good hands with her. That was confirmed after our meet and greet. She made me feel safe leaving my girl with her which is the most important thing to me and I knew she would care about her well-being just as I do. Additionally, her pricing is amazing for the service, which is helpful for a student like me. If I ever need pet sitting services again, I will definitely come back!”
“Captain loves going to stay with Crystal! My velcro puppy sticks to me like glue everywhere we go, except when running up to Crystal's door for doggie daycare! It makes me feel at ease knowing he is so well loved!”
“Terry is an awesome Rover sitter! He took care of our dog Roxie several days while we were in town from WA visiting family in Texas. He treated Roxie as if she was one of his regulars, and sent us updates each day he had her. We were able to enjoy day trips around the Denton area knowing Roxie was having her own play days at Terry's! We will definitely contact Terry again anytime we return to the area.”
“Cary and Paul are the BEST! Topper is always so excited to visit- he runs to the their door! I am so thankful to have found such kind and caring people to take care of Topper. Wendy is a super sweet pup and Topper enjoys her company.”

About: What sets me apart is my combination of hands on experience, patience, and a genuine commitment to understanding each pet’s individual needs. I’ve worked with a wide range of animals, including energetic puppies who need structure and training, as well as senior pets who require gentler, slower-paced care and close attention to comfort and mobility. I’m confident handling feeding routines, administering basic medications, and managing pets with anxiety or special quirks. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, create a calm environment, and communicate consistently with owners so they feel fully at ease while they’re away. Whether it’s reinforcing positive training for puppies, offering mobility support and extra patience for seniors, or giving plenty of love and playtime to pets of any age, I’m committed to providing reliable, compassionate care that feels like an extension of your own home. For all pet care needs a child will be with me at all times. Your dogs MUST be child friendly. For dog sitting requests in the home, I do not stay the night. If you are nearby to Denton, TX, I can do 3-4 visits drop by daily. Father away will be 1-2 times for a drop by visit. Please be aware before booking a house sitting request. Pet care is a natural part of my routine, and I build my schedule around providing consistent attention and support. I’m used to planning my mornings and evenings around feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins. I keep a flexible schedule so I can accommodate pets who need mid-day visits or a little extra time. Throughout the week, I make sure each pet gets the right balance of exercise, companionship, and calm downtime. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze in. It is something I prioritize and enjoy as part of my everyday rhythm especially having 3 dogs of my own! When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as familiar and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding instructions, walk schedules, and training preferences exactly as given. I also make sure to keep their environment clean, safe, and comfortable! I do that by having refreshing water, tidying up food areas, and giving plenty of playtime or quiet time depending on what the pet needs. I stay attentive to their behavior and well-being. I also send regular updates so their owners feel confident and connected. When caring for pets in my own home, I create a calm and welcoming space that’s pet-friendly and supervised. Having three dogs of my own plus accommodating for others will be fun! I provide structured play, exercise, and rest. I make sure pets feel secure, whether that means cozy spots to relax or engaging activities to burn energy. I treat every pet like part of the family by being patient, promoting safety, and with lots of love and consistency. For all pet care needs a child will be with me at all times. Your dogs MUST be child friendly. For dog sitting requests in the home, I do not stay the night. If you are nearby to Denton, TX, I can do 3-4 visits drop by daily.

“I was initially very anxious to leave my 3 yr old Shih tzu but at Vishnu Priya's place my Ginger was very relaxed and carefree. She ensured my pet was comfortable and at ease. I will definitely use her services again .Thank you .”
About: I’ve worked and lived with animals my entire life. I’ve taken dog training classes and absolutely love dogs. This gives me the opportunity to do what I love without owning more than one dog and being able to stay home the days I need to. I’ll send updates and promise to make it an enjoyable and loved experience for everyone 🤍 Nice Clean and Safe environment. This job allows me to enjoy your pets on the days I’m free, home alone and able to give your pet all the attention he or she needs. I have a pretty large open space indoors. I don’t have the biggest yard but really enjoy walks. Quiet and clean environment. I allow pets to roam freely and give all the love and attention.
“Mary and Kelly have been amazing with our old lady dog the past few months. They are kind and gentle with her. Thank you so much for letting her hang out with you.”
“Janish was great with my Oreo! I had just gotten him and wasn’t completely sure how he’d respond to certain things and she was very understanding of that. She kept me very updated with how and what he was doing along with photos and videos throughout his stay. Her pets were also great with Oreo and he loved playing with them. I would highly recommend her to watch your pet as she will take great care of them and love them like her own!”
“Chelsea was great with our young german shepherd. We were able to leave her all day without worry, and pick up/drop off was super easy. She was very friendly and we would be happy to have her watch our dog again!”
About: I’m a loving dog and reptile mom who enjoys spending time outdoors. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, offering gentle, patient walks filled with love and care. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate morning, afternoon, or early evening walks. I’ll always do my best to work around your pup’s routine! I have a large fenced yard and a friendly fur baby to keep yours company! As well as a large home to relax in !
“My dog Hampton had a blast at Bree's house! I know he especially loved playing with all of her other pups! Made for an exciting day out and he was pretty wore out when he came home! We're glad he had fun and know he's looking forward to staying overnight soon!”
“I would give Tiffany 10 Stars if I could! I recently tried putting Big Boy in doggie daycare. It did not end well. He got scared and was crying and they put him in what they called "time out". I later learned time out meant that he spent the entire day by himself. My son told me about this app and I decided to give it a shot. I could not be happier. Tiffany is not only the nicest person ever, but she also genuinely loves dogs. When I took big boy back the morning after his first visit, he was actually excited to be there which is a huge milestone for a dog that's got separation anxiety. Big boy and Tiffany's dog played together all day. She sent numerous photos and gave me great rundowns of the events of each day. She is amazing and I give you my word, she will not disappoint!”

“Hilda is great! She did a meet and great the night before! She treated my sweet girl with so much love and went above and beyond! Definitely a 10/10!! Will be calling her again for sure! 🙂”
“Caitlyn did very good with Oreo! It was our first time trying to see if he’d do good with a dog walker and with no fault to Caitlyn, he did not. He was shy and very scared and not a fan of the idea. However, Caitlyn tried very hard to slowly work with him and kept me updated on the experience. I found it best to just leave him be as it was just a trial run and it helped me realize it is not for him! But I am very thankful for Caitlyn’s patience and kindness towards him and would recommend her for your pet!! She really cares about the animals she is working with.”
“We had a great experience with Savannah! She was very communicative, reliable, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. I always felt updated and knew Mocha was in good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring with their pets!”
“Had a very last minute booking and Madison was very flexible and awesome in coordinating everything. She was great with my pup Milo and was awesome with her communication. Will be booking again for sure!”
“Great with my 80 lb, strong willed boy! Friendly and puppy comes home happy and worn out. Everything I could ask for! Will hire Richard again for sure. So glad we got connected with him!”
“Ashley is very good with dogs and it didn't take more than a second to see Gunner's positive and friendly reaction when he met her. Your pet will be taken good care of from this Rover provider!! Ashley also was a last minute substitution due to my May 4th surgery being bumped up sooner to April 27th, and another Rover provider unable to be in town April 27-28. We really appreciate Ashley for being there for us this week!!”
“Lindsay was the first person we have hired through Rover, and she was absolutely incredible! So helpful, communicative, and very considerate/thoughtful. We usually have a friend do it so we were a bit nervous, but we will never hesitate to hire Lindsay again. She really loves dogs and our pooch was excited to see her everyday. A wonder to work with!”
About: I love all pets! I am currently working towards becoming a veterinarian. I work at a doggy daycare. I also have 2 years of experience volunteering with animals. I have two dogs, a Husky and a Doberman who I love dearly. My cat is the leader of the house as she should be. I can handle all pets big or small barks or meows! I am constantly taking care of furry friends. let it be my own or the loving pets at the doggy day care. I am also a pooper scooper machine I don't mind cleaning up as long as the pets are happy. I can easily follow pet parent instructions. I know if my fur baby was in someone else's care I would like to be able to trust they would be taken care of the same way they are when I'm home. That is what I strive for at work as well, making all pets feel like its home and making it the most exciting day ever!
About: Hi Y'all, We are Meranda and Josh !! We WANT ALL THE FURRBABIES!!! We have 4 pooches of our own! All of which we have raised from puppies and are sweet and gentle. We have a 7 year old husky named Jager who is so sweet and gentle as well as the head of my lil pack. He is smart and obedient. He is friendly from strangers to puppies alike. He has been the "Father Figure" to our other pups. Obedience, non-aggressive, affectionate are the qualities he has passed on to his siblings. Next up is Bosley. He is a pitbull. The reputation of his breed is completely eliminated upon first impression with him. While he appears to be the strongest, most in-charge of the pack, he is the most submissive and kind. He is afraid of thunderstorms, loud noises, and demands to be cuddled on a daily basis. Koko is actually Bosley's cousin. She has all of the wonderful attributes Bosley does as far as being submissive and kind, but she isn't afraid of thunderstorms and loud noises. Her first response toward other dogs is to be the greeter. She longs to have puppies of her own and that is expressed in her loving, caring nature shown in her love for new friends--especially submissive ones. She has never met a stranger. Last is Whiskey. She is our puppy--An 8 month Belgian German Shepherd. She is playful and fun as any puppy should be. She is a social butterfly. She is still in training and doing great! She is smart as can be and her active instincts make her a very playful companion. She is the "Life of the Party" most of the time. Completely non-aggressive. 100% play, fun and games. Our dogs get all of our attention. They are our children. All of our dogs are kennel trained, but all of them are accustomed to being spoiled one-on-one including sleeping with us as needed when they are needy or scared. Your pup would be no different depending on his/her needs. If we could home all the world's needful dogs we would! If you are looking to socialize your pup in a loving, safe, non-aggressive environment with a variety of dogs then we are your Rover family!
About: I’ve watched my friends/family dogs for awhile now. I enjoy their company & take very good care of them. They’re fun to be around. I go to the gym at 7-8 am Mon-Thursday. So the rest of my day is free. Fri-Sun is my alone time. I have a big fenced backyard for the dogs to run, play, and potty. I also have a park down the street from my house.
About: Hi animal lovers! I’d love to assist you with your pet care for when life gets busy. I have 18 years of pet care experience and over 2 years of professional, paid experience in dog walking/sitting and cat sitting. I have experience with dogs, to cats, to aquatic creatures, to guinea pigs! If you are in need of anything else beyond walking and sitting, feel free to reach out and we can work together :) I’m currently as an English teacher, but am going back to school next year and would love to care for your furry friends during my free time and breaks! I’m available all day on weekends and weekday nights and midday breaks! I had a 17 year old dog at my family home, but he passed away this past July and miss caring for dogs, so I’d love to spend time getting to help others care with theirs :) I also have 3 of my own cats so I am more than experienced there! I have a nice sized space for cats and dogs of many sizes. I also have great sized neighborhood/complex for long walks in order to ensure your furry friend receives their daily exercise and potty breaks!
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was very young. I grew up with 3 big dogs. I would feed, water, walk and play with them everyday. Since they’ve gotten older I can’t play with them as much, but I walk them all the time. I adopted a puppy in 2022. He has been a challenge but I wouldn’t change him for the world. I’m currently working part-time but your pets are my number one priority. Their needs come before my job. I stay with the dogs most of the day. I go home for about an hour or two then come straight back. As soon as I get there I let them outside to go to the bathroom, and depending on the time I either play with them or I feed and water them.
“Emma did a great job taking care of our two dogs. She sent plenty of photos and some commentary on their outing that gave me a good idea of their daily walk encounters and other things going on like the weather, the ground conditions and how successfully the dogs finished their usual business. Emma demonstrates a good knowledge of and rapport with animals and reported that even my shy dog Harper warmed up to her during their time together. The dogs were happy and well upon our return so we are pleased with Emma's service while we were away. We would happily rebook Emma for any future animal care needs.”
“I can’t recommend Aurellia enough. She’s been walking my dog for a while now, and she’s hands-down the best. My dog absolutely loves her and gets excited every time she shows up. You can tell she genuinely cares and takes her time to make sure the dogs are happy and well looked after. She’s reliable, easy to communicate with, and always sends quick updates after walks, which I really appreciate. It’s great knowing my dog’s in good hands when I’m busy or out for the day. If you need a trustworthy, caring, and all-around great dog walker — Aurellia’s the one to call.”
About: I have taken care of my dog since I was 6. From walks and feeding, then eventually to giving meds, cleaning teeth, and taking him to the vet. He is almost 15 years old so I am very experienced with the care of older dogs. I often take care of family members and friends dogs and love to learn the personality’s of each dog to determine what they need in their day to day routines. I am currently home from college for the summer so I can spend almost all day with pets and give them my undivided attention. I go on walks with my dog in the late afternoon so the hot concrete does not bother his paws. I have large fenced in yard, with a very friendly older dog who loves nap time. We do not keep crates in the home but can do so if one is provided. Dogs are given free rein and are welcome on the beds and couches. We also have very comfortable dog beds they can choose from.
“Isabel was wonderful and Haley was so happy to be at home and not being boarded. Isabel let me know via text message every day the length of the walk and added a photo. Thank you again Isabel and thank goodness I found Rover!!”

“I’m over the moon happy that we found Allison & Nicholas! I am very emotional when it comes to my dog but they kept me updated on how he was doing and sent me picture and videos of him having the best time! Made it easier for me to leave him knowing he was at home away from home!! Ziggy had the best time and I know when we do a longer stay next time he’s in the best hands!!”
“Terry took care of my dog (again) during a last minute booking. He’s one of the only dog sitters I trust with my dog. If you’re ever concerned with your dog being around others, he has an amazing system in place to make sure incompatible dogs stay separate and happy.”
“I highly recommend her! I had to travel out of state for an entire week, and this was a very last-minute booking that I made just a day before leaving. She was incredibly accommodating and helped me out when I was in a difficult spot. Throughout the week, she sent me daily photos and updates of my dogs, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. It was such a relief to see them happy, comfortable, and having a great time. She also has a huge backyard where the dogs could run around and play. Every photo she sent showed them enjoying themselves, and they always looked happy and well cared for. She is kind, reliable, and genuinely cares about the animals she watches. Leaving your pets behind can be stressful, but she made the entire experience easy and worry-free. I would absolutely trust her with my dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter.”
“We used Kelli to board our puppy for the first time and she made it so easy! We got pictures and videos with updates every day which made it so much easier to be away from him. Would highly recommend!”
“Lauren and Holden did an amazing job watching our two dogs Essie and Chloe. It was Essie’s first time boarding and we were nervous but Lauren was so accommodating and kind. It was clear that the dogs felt at home and were well taken care of. We received plenty of photos of the dogs playing together outside and they had a great time! We will be booking with Lauren and Holden again in the future.”
“Leslie & Johnathan were awesome! We had an emergency and needed to drop our dog off for a few nights while we were in the hospital. After all of our usual boarders were unavailable, they quickly responded and took our dog in with short notice. Truly lifesavers, and he had a super fun time!”
“Jessica was a great sitter for my Leo. Her entire family embraced him and he was in really great care. She kept us updated with pics the entire weekend to put our minds at ease. Highly recommend her.”
“Autumn was the best! Her and her family took care of both of my pups for a couple days and I would highly recommend + bring them again. We did a meet and great where I got to meet the family and they met the pups so that was great to do beforehand. Thanks again for loving on the pups!”
“I have trusted Jessica & Nathaniel to care for my dog, Sunshine, while I was out of town a couple times now. They have consistently been very communicative/quick to respond, flexible and understanding when I had to do late pickups due to travel delays, and attentive to Sunshine’s medication schedule. Most importantly, I could tell Sunshine enjoyed her stay in their very dog friendly home. She remembered their house and was ready to jump out of the car as soon as we pulled up for her second visit!”
“It was obvious that Ashley loves dogs and she loved my 2 bandits. She got to know them and their traits rather quickly. I can recommend Ashley to give the best of care and attention to anyone's pet.”
“Leaving our dog mocha with Chris was a good call. He was very accommodating and welcoming, and our dog came back spoilt. We would want to avail his services again, any day.”
“Jessica is very caring of our pups and treats them so well. They can be mischievous and yet she still seems to love on them and provide exactly what they need. Thank you for being caring, loving, and patient with them.”
“My girls had so much fun and love while staying with Michael and his family. Michael sent me picture and text updates every day! I was able to enjoy my trip more knowing my girls were in great hands. Kona and Mavis will be staying with them again!”
