“Andrew was so good with Huck and I was kept in the loop during his entire stay. He is so attentive and really shows a true love for animals, especially the ones he is watching. Keeps them safe and you know they are comfortable, fed and happy. Will be booking with Andrew again!”
“This was my first experience using Rover, I was a bit nervous about leaving my baby with a stranger. Rodnie quickly put those concerns to rest. My pup was treated as part of the family. He was well loved and cared for. I will definitely book with Rodnie in the future. She is communicative, kind, and most of all, a dog lover. Do not hesitate to book with her!”
“Mary has a great set-up with large, fenced yard. My dog Nova can get separation anxiety, but she was a happy pup when I picked her up after a week of boarding - this tells me her needs were met and she felt comfortable. Great service and daily pics!”
“Jeff & Jirapun were amazing sitters! They were incredibly attentive to our dogs’ needs and took such great care of them during their stay. We really appreciated all the photos and updates they sent, it was so reassuring to see how happy our pups were. They even took them on a little adventure to HEB, which we loved! Overall, they were fantastic sitters, and we could clearly tell our dogs were happy and well taken care of. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring and reliable sitters. 😊”
“Natalee is great. She took care of my dogs on short notice and treated them like her own. I appreciated the updates from her and how responsive she is concerning individual dog care institutions. Highly recommend her to anyone.”
“I have two big high energy dogs and Mark did great with both of them. Both my babies have two very different personalities but Mark was able to keep them both happy and comfortable which keeps me at ease when traveling out of town. Thank you Mark for your help!”
“Elisa suggested a meet and greet before confirming booking which we appreciated getting to meet her and her sweet daughter who adored Tucker. Elisa did an awesome job communicating and sending pictures to us during Tucker’s stay with her. It helped give us peace of mind while out of town. I will definitely be booking again.”
“Great experience with Brandon and his wife! They sent pictures and were so flexible with drop off and pick up. I will definitely reach out to them again to watch my pup!”
“Shane took care of my two dogs for 2 weeks while I was out of the country. He sent me pictures and updates of the puppies every single day. He was just amazing and my dogs love him now. I highly recommend his service. He is great!”
About: I'm a veterinary technician, I have 20 yrs experience in taking care of dogs and cats. I am CPR certified and I can administer medications if needed. Besides my medical background as a animal lover, I can offer great companionship to your best friend while your gone. I currently have a 7 month old Australian shepherd who loves to play and can also offer friendship. I've been taking care of my friends and family's pets while they go on vacation since I was 19 yrs old. I'm confident in my ability to take care of dogs. I'm currently not working and staying home with our kids and animals. I walk our dog in the morning then hang out the rest of the day, my kids play with our dog. I live on 5 acres but we have fenced off an area behind our house for our dog and goats. I have a plastic kid pool to help them stay cool in the summer. I typically feed my pets twice a day and a treat mid-day. My house can get pretty loud with my kids yell and screaming when then play. My kids are 10 yr (son) and 9 yrs(daughter) old, I have a husband who loves to play with the kids and dog, it can get a little crazy at our house. I also have a 7 month old mini Australian shepherd, she is a shy girl at first but then gets crazy when she decides she likes you. I have 5 cats some like dogs and some tolerate them and just judge. I also have 2 goats in the backyard, they are very nice but will give a warning if something happens that they don't like. All my pets have vaccines and have been dewormed.
“My mini Aussie stayed with Jormary for 8 days, normally my dog is quite nervous in new surroundings, Jormary took such great care of her, gave extra attention so she would feel less anxious. I was getting daily updates and pictures. Jormary followed instructions to the t, I am very happy with the care Jormary provided for my pet. Would definitely recommend and I am certain I will book again!”
“Brad was very responsive when I would text to check on the dogs. I received multiple photos during their stay and they always looked happy. When we picked them up they looked like they had made themselves at home with Brad. Will definitely use him as our dog sitter again!”
“Cheyenne was amazing with my dog. Clearly passionate for animals and a great dog watcher! She's very communicative and makes sure you know your pooch is doing well and having fun.”
“Jordan came through last minute for us and was awesome! She has an awesome house for dogs and it was well worth the drive from Austin to drop my pups off. Provided lots of pictures and updated. Will definitely book again when needed!”
“Kari and the entire family were amazing, as always! Our senior cat, Bella, got lots of love and attention. She also came home well fed, which says a lot at her age! She is clearly very comfortable and well cared for in their home. Highly recommend!”

We know it can be difficult trusting your fur baby with someone new or just not having them by your side but we would love to do anything to help you and your fur baby feel comfortable with their stay. We have a park right by our house to walk and intact with other dogs. You dog would have the opportunity to run around play on our property where we would take your dog for a walk and play. Although we both work full time we would make your fur babies our top priority. Our house is puppy/ dog proof. We want you to feel comfortable with us as well as allowing us to take care of your baby.
“We had a lovely experience booking Andrea. We got lots of updates, pictures, and videos of our kitties. Andrea was very thoughtful and gave our cat his medicine even when we were about to be home so we had one less thing to do after a hectic day. I would definitely book again if our cats needed watching ☺️”
“Lily was by far one of the BEST sitters we’ve ever had for our cats! She’s a very gentle and sweet individual who has a natural ability to identify our cats’ needs. We were impressed with her consistent daily reporting on our cats, especially with her breathings with our more antisocial furbaby. We couldn’t have been more fortunate in finding Lily to trust our cats with over the holidays.”
“I appreciate the help I have received since July 2025 with the drop ins for my fur babies to go potty. With out Tinisha's acceptance I would not have been able to start my new job. Lots of hugs and thank you!”
About: I’ve owned and taken care of cats for 20+ years. I’ve worked with a wide range of cat personalities from feral to super friendly. I can understand the social cues from cats and can notice most medical issues early on due to my vet/med background. I have experience administering medications/injections/fluids, and have learned calming methods.
“Tamaria kindly checked in on my cat when I needed someone very last minute over the holidays. She is extremely fast to respond and sends regular updates, including plenty of pictures. My cat is very shy around new people but warmed up quickly to Tamaria with a few treats of encouragement! I recommend Tamaria and will certainly reach out to her in the future.”
“Cheyenne was great. I was so nervous about leaving my fur baby for a few extra days but Cheyenne was attentive to her needs and helped to reassure me during my time away. Recommended again.”
“Lillian was fantastic! She was an excellent fit for us, and extremely flexible! She took care of our pets like they were her own. We will definitely use her again! Too bad we can’t give her 10 stars!!!”
About: Hey there! Taking care of animals is a passion of mine. The unconditional love they give us is just a great feeling. So a little about me, I went to Tarleton State for Animal Science. I want the animals to be comfortable with me and in the environment. Animals deserve extra love and attention, specially when you’re busy all day or going out of town. I’ve worked as a veterinary technician with animals for 8+ years, as well as taking care of animals outside of work. I love all sorts of animals and think they deserve the same care as humans get! Dogs have feelings too! I believe animals need to go out a lot and get exercise as well as socializing. Dogs need just as much love as we need! I will always try to accommodate my schedule to make sure the fur babies have plenty of time to get some fresh air, potty break and some love during the day! When I care of clients fur babies, I always make sure to follow your guidelines with your babies. That being if they needed to be leash walked or they get to run free in the yard.
About: I I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels. My background includes daily feeding routines, administering basic medications, leash walks, playtime, and providing lots of affection and attention. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, so I take the time to learn their habits, preferences, and comfort levels. I work a remote full time job. If I’m needed more frequently, all I’d ask is to be allowed to work from your location. Otherwise, I’m on a 9-5 work schedule and can be available for one hour, typically between 11am and 1pm, and every evening. Pet care fits smoothly into my daily and weekly routine. I am available after 3:30 pm daily, which allows me to reliably focus on feeding times, walks, okay sessions, and quality one-on-one care in the afternoons and evenings.
About: I have dogs and cats of my own, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. For about four years, I have consistently house-sat and pet-sat for family and friends, often caring for multiple dogs and cats at the same time. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, playtime, walks, litter boxes, giving pets attention, and keeping homes tidy while owners are away. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable caring for your pets, and I always treat them like they are my own.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Sharp
About: Hello my name is Cayla. I’m from Houston, Tx and I've been an animal lover my whole life. I’ve raised other animals in FFA for my high school years while alson having other house hold pets within the years ( rabbit, turtle, dogs, and fish). I’m choosing to do Rover so I can build clientele and so I can expand my knowledge on dogs outside my pit bull and a few other breeds I’ve dealt with within my family and friends. Hopefully I’m someone you’ll love and trust around your home and your four-legged best friend. I do work from home and only work 4 days out the week so it's no hassle making sure everything and everyone is doing great. During the booking process I do ask for a routine so I can keep everything consistent. I do have doggie treats, extra blankets, training pads, and doggie toys I keep on stand by. In the morning I will open cages and let them move around freely aslong as im home and awake. If they need medication I have no problem giving it to them aswell, I do work from home so that will not be an issue.
“Jax seemed to have had a fun time spending the day with Jordan and her pets. Jordan was great at sending me updates and pictures. Jax will be staying a few days with Jordan in the near future so it was great for them to spend a full day together getting to know each other.”
“I left my Australian Shepard with Isabelle for daycare for two days, as I was dropping him off for the second day he was so excited to see Isabelle which I knew it meant he was in good hands. Isabelle was always responsive and gave me updates while he was with her. She also took him along for their daily walk which I appreciated. Thank you again Isabelle!”
About: I'm an animal lover! I always had animals growing up; having cats & dogs. Also had a guinea pig, a chinchilla, several birds, a turtle, bunnies and bearded dragons. Our furbabies are like our children! I am a professional petsitter, fostering dogs & cats, training them and rescuing animals. Currently, I have 4 cats (mine) & 2 bearded dragons and 1 small dog (mom's). I have experiences with seniors and blind furbabies. I also have experiences dealing with flight risk, severe anxiety pets and oral medication as well as injections. **DROP-IN VISIT** I live in Taylor, I can travel to Hutto, Granger, southeast of GT, East of Round Rock, Thorndale and Coupland. **BOARDING - Requirements: * Non-aggressive/low/medium energy (must be ok with other pets) * 100% house-trained includes trained to not chew on household items * Current on all vaccinations and flea prevention * Male felines must be neutered I ask you to provide food and bedding for your furbabies because every pet is different, has different lifestyles and eating/sleeping habits, toys. I have plenty of bowls and plenty of crates (XS, S, M, L, XL & XXL) including a 3 tier crate (for cats) if needed. My schedule is flexible, I'm almost always home. If weather permits, I enjoy going out for long hikes or going to parks/neighborhood for walks. ** Boarding & Housesitting - I'm available 7 days a week. The potty break/meal schedule is flexible on my end. They can go out often for potty breaks, to explore, fetch, and enjoy the sun as they please. Also, will provide outdoor play with engagement of other pups and can do some training as well. ** Housesitting - I will spend the nights with them. Sometimes I will be away for a few hours unless you instruct me for a specific time, such as how long it is ok to leave your pets alone, I will follow your preference. They are welcome to tag along for the ride if they enjoy car rides. -- During my free time I volunteer as a pet rescue member with Trapping, Rescue and Pet Recovery Service (TRAPRS), a non-profit organization. I have been with TRAPRS since they were founded in 2019. When I'm scheduled to pet sit, I will not be available to do a rescue. Only time I'll be away is if someone is able to secure an animal, Ill be out for a quick scan for microchip or if I'm scheduled to drop-in to visit other clients' homes. (I want to be transparent about what I do). I know it can be stressful leaving your family member with a stranger, but you can be confident that your furbaby/ies will be treated as one of the family; given plenty of love, hugs, belly scratches, treats, play time and walks during their stay. I have a fenced yard for your pup(s) to explore, do their business, enjoy the fresh air & flirt with the sun, and play fetch. I will send photos and videos of your furbaby having a great time! You are welcome to reach out to check on them at any time. They will be in good paws!
About: What could be better than a dog vacay at a real ranch? 2 ponds with bass and catfish to sniff out! Plenty of space to run and play with the other pups! There is a secure fence that surrounds the main house and another perimeter fence, that way the pups can only say hello to the cattle from a far. :) A special notice: there are cats and chickens on the property that roam around with the ranch dogs. Please keep this in mind as we love our chickens and cats as much as our dogs. I highly suggest a meet and greet for the newcomers before confirming a reservation at the ranch. The pups living the sweet life at the Sweet Ranch give it a unanimous "all paws up"!
About: Hello, I’m Brad! I cannot wait to spoil and pamper your dog. I am a small business owner who works 100% of the time from my home office. Additionally, my mother, who is retired, is home all day too. Dogs visiting my house will be treated as family members. Home full time, I will be able to provide your dog with the care and attention he deserves while staying with me. Take a look at my photos to check out my home and fully fenced-in yard to see where your dog would be spending his doggy vacation. My home, near Hutto Elementary and Middle Schools, is in a new, quiet neighborhood with plenty of walking trails nearby. My yard is spacious with new grass and a covered patio to provide both sunny and shaded play areas. The price listed is for a 24 hour stay for a dog weighing up to 44 lbs. It would be $35 for a dog weighing 45-94 lbs. Having undergone advanced screening, I have been met face-to-face and my home has been inspected. I look forward to meeting you and your dog(s)!

Mark takes great care of the dogs and even feeds them when he feels they are hungry without a second thought. Great experience sending our pup to Mark's place !”
“Noodles had so much fun playing at Josh’s house! Communication was great and I always felt super comfortable. Loved getting the report card of how she did with lots more pics!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for quite a while! It started with trick training which turned into completely 6 months at a dog training school and earning a certificate in canine training and behavioral specialist. I am confident in handling and caring for the most difficult pups!

We can come up with a system that works best for you pets! Whether that be multiple walks per day or a special feeding plan!
About: We have raised 3 different dogs together. Two of those furr babies required medical care and special diets, so we are always very attentive and careful with all pets needs! We recently lost our precious boy River, due to his liver disease and we miss his presence tremendously. So having other pets over truly helps keep us going and having a boost of morale. With that being said, we will give your pet 100% of our attention at all times. You can trust your pet will be supervised and cared for all day. At least one of us is always home to supervise when we are dog sitting so your pet is never alone. We have a small dog park at our complex for some outdoor fun time, and can provide daily walks as well to ensure they get more exercise! We have made our home safe for your dog keeping certain things out of reach. I can update you regularly with picture updates as well!
About: I've taken care of dogs for about 7 years now. years now. Friends and family have relied on me to care for their pets (cats, dogs, hedgehogs). I've been known to be an animal person and we normally get comfortable with each other very quickly. I promise you, I'll love them like they're my own! :) I work from home which means I am a great person to sit with them all day or take them out on walks around the neighborhood! :) If I’m coming to you, I do my very best to respect your baby’s space and preferences. As much as I want to jump in and give them all the lovins’, I will wait until they are comfortable with me so they're not afraid. If you’re coming to me, we live in a first floor apartment right by the dog park, so, we have easy access for potty time! We also have lots of space to set up beds/food/toys/etc. Dogs are allowed on the couch and, depending on size, we don't mind them in the bed. I do have a dog of my own. Her name is Cleo and she is a small poodle mix. We will also bring her to the meet and greet so that she can be familiar. She can be a little shy, but never mean. She warms up fairly quickly and she's great at making people and other doggos feel welcome and comfortable. In a past life, she was a mama so she is very loving and gentle with puppies.

I can handle the hyper puppies and cuddle the lazy senior dogs❤️ I’m ready to treat your dog with love and patience! Hi! My name is Faith and i’m 20 years old. I work part time right now so i’m free to care for any animal during the day and night! I work at a horse ranch between 3-6 pm during the weekday, so I can be with your dog all day! I do have dogs of my own but they will always stay home! When house sitting or drop in visits, I will make sure everything is safe during visits or outside time! I’m good with crating dogs or doing whatever they need to feel safe around me
About: I've always had dogs growing up and have 3 now. I have watched my family and friends' while they're out of town. I'm familiar with small and large dogs, giving medication, hyper dogs, and slightly aggressive dogs. I don't work so my schedule is very open! I am available for both weekdays and weekends and can work with whatever your schedule is. My boyfriend is able to watch our pets which allows me to stay as long as you'll need. I have 3 large dogs and a cat so I'm not able to watch your pets at my house but can make sure they're happy at home while you're away.
About: Hello! My name is Jordan and I've been passionate towards all animals my entire life and have experience with a variety of different species. I've worked as an animal care intern at a wildlife rehab and as a kennel technician where my primary duties were to work closely with veterinary staff to provide care for animals of all shapes and sizes. This experience plus a life long history with animals has allowed me to recognize each pet's individual personalities so that I may tailor my care to fit their exact needs. My goal is to treat your pets with respect and warmth in order to ensure their happiness while you’re away. I'm sensitive, flexible and empathetic to the individual needs of your pet so that their time apart from you is happy and stress free. I'm communicative and open so that you can rest assured knowing how much fun your pet is having under my care. As a pet parent of many different species myself, I understand the dedication and love you have for your pets and I understand the desire for an accountable, kind caregiver. I am also able to accommodate any special requests, such as if you would prefer your dog be crated during certain times, if your pet needs medications administered during the day and much more. Additionally, I have experience with invertebrates, reptiles, birds, small mammals, dogs and cats. I live on 20 acres of mowed and maintained land with a secure fence that will give your babies plenty of space to run around and explore. In addition, I provide a cozy, peaceful home environment where your pet is welcome to explore, settle in, and relax at their own pace. With plenty of comfortable spaces to lounge, play, and feel secure, I strive to create an stress-free atmosphere that helps every pet feel right at home during their stay. If I’m going to your home, I will be respectful and courteous to any rules and maintain the standard of care you treat your animals with. Being a stay-at-home mom gives me the flexibility to care for pets in a way that truly fits their individual needs. Because I’m home throughout the day, I can adjust feeding times, walks, play, and quiet moments based on each pet’s personality, age, and energy level. This flexibility means my care isn’t one-size-fits-all. If your pet needs more frequent bathroom breaks, extra exercise, or just a little reassurance and companionship, I’m able to respond right away instead of sticking to a strict timetable and I can easily monitor changes in behavior or health. My daily routine may be full, but it’s adaptable—and that makes all the difference in giving pets the individualized attention they deserve. In my home, pets are welcomed into a calm, supervised environment where they can relax and follow a consistent routine. When caring for your pets at your home, I focus on maintaining their familiar routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs—so they feel comfortable and secure. My hands-on experience working with many types of animals—different species, breeds, ages and temperaments—gives me the confidence to handle everything. Whether you need me to care for your scaly, feathered, or furry friends, my goal is always the same: to make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while their family is away.

About: I have watched people's animals before and have had background in dog and cat sitting. I ensure that your animals are in the best care and that they will stay safe and happy when I am caring for them. I’m currently a student at the University of Texas A&M-Corpus Christi, with a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time each day to caring for pets. I fit dog and cat sitting into my routine by planning walks, feeding times, and play sessions around my classes. It’s a responsibility I take seriously, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals—it keeps me grounded and active. You can count on me to provide consistent, attentive care and make sure your pet feels safe and loved while you're away. I will care for pets by ensuring they get regular playtime, access to fresh, cold water, and food either at all times or according to their specific needs. I’ll also make sure they get outside safety whether that means keeping them on a leash or checking that the yard is secure to prevent them from wandering off. Their comfort and safety will always be my top priority.
“Kimmie was amazing from the beginning, easy to communicate with, kept me updated, and helped me out when my usual dog walker was out of town. Will rebook when I need a walker again! Thanks Kimmie!”
About: I grew up in an animal shelter. Sounds crazy right? Well, it's true. My mom has always worked around animals(and still does) so I was always right by her side. Whether it be at animal shelters, helping with adoptions, walking, feeding, giving medications. Anything to be involved ! Then she became a Veterinarian. So of course, when I got old enough, I worked at her clinic. I've truely worked with animals my whole life and have always had animals of my own. I am currently working as an Animal Rescue Coordinator each day but would love to further my pet care business . My fur babies are my children and I treat them as so. You will always be able to find comfort knowing that I will treat your fur babies with the same love and care as my own! My favorite thing to do is spend time with my 3 dogs. A few things we love doing are going to the dog park, playing fetch, frisbee, going to the lake to swim, agility, hiking, and of course getting frozen yogurt! I would be more than happy to spend time with your pup doing these things. I'm sure they deserve it! I can't wait to spoil your pup and put your mind at ease knowing he/she is loved, safe, and happy while you're away. Your fur babies deserve the best! I currently work full time in VetMed but I have Fri-Sun off. This is when I’ll offer pet services. I’m hoping to offer full time care eventually. I care for pets in my home as if they were my own. They are allowed on furniture/beds if the owner is okay with this. I have doggy gates for separation of other animals if needed. Pets are never left unattended in my home. If I must leave for any reason, your pet must be kenneled in my home.
About: I have trained puppies, I also have a senior dog that has arthritis that I make special food for. I have taken care of animals with anxiety and seizures that require medication. I am currently not working so I have plenty of time to play and go for walks. I am available every day but Sunday and can stay overnight. I find it’s easier on the pets to watch them in their own home so they are surrounded by their owner’s smell and in their comfort zone so that it lessens their stress while their family is away.
About: I have worked with small dogs and big dogs and nervous dogs- I have owned my own doggo (a shih tzu bichon mix for 10 years) since I rescued her from a poodle shelter. I have worked as an assistant training emotional support animals at a rehabilitation facility (: I would love to hang out with your doggo babies when you need me! I am an early riser and work part-time in pet care. It is my primary job- I have regular clients that are my own aside of rover so my calendar on app may be inaccurate. In the clients home- your pet(s) are my first priority and my second priority is your home. Boarding at my home- your pet is still my first priority! We have 1 budgie, 2 cockatiels, 3 dogs, and 2 kittens!
About: I’m a dependable animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes and temperaments. I’ve spent a lot of time around dogs, cats, and other small animals, and I’m comfortable handling feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and basic care routines. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to watch their pets because I treat every animal like my own—making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. My goal is always to provide a calm, reliable environment where pets get plenty of attention, activity, and love. I was laid off a few months ago from my last job so I have plenty of time to care and love your dog. My home is also spacious and I have a large fenced in back yard with a back porch. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of room. I also live in a reasonably sized home and have two young children that will love and play with them. I will have a crate if you want me to crate your dog. If not, they will be able to hangout with me or on a dog bed! 😊
About: I'm Aubreya and I work from home as a financial analyst. My friends and family have referred to me as a dog whisperer, as I tend to immediately fall in love and build great relationships with fur babies! Plus I know all the best spots to scratch! Over the years I have been a reliable pet-sitter for many friends, neighbors and family members and I would love the opportunity to do the same for you. I currently have a 6 y/o yorkie-schnauzer and a 5 y/o great pyrenees-springer spaniel. My care giving style is relaxed, attentive and loving. I will follow your directions and pet needs to the letter. After completion of my services, I will ensure that your home is left clean and provide you with a detailed report of my stay. Since I work from home, I am able to provide full time care for housesitting as long as you have Wifi. I am typically available on weekends and also able to do drop-ins with a bit of notice. I would ask for detailed information on your pet(s) routine so that I can follow it precisely. Everything that I do is based soley on the need of you and your dog, so that I can provide an accommodating and positive experience.
About: I am Deaf & love animals. We have 4 pets. 2 dogs (Faye & Bella - sweet girls!), & 2 cats (Mister & Garfield - our boys!) I am willing to house sit any animals of any sizes/kind. I also know how to give dogs oral medications and such. I am willing to travel about 50 miles from my house to the location for services. Check out the calendar for my availability. Thank you for looking at my profile. If you have any questions, please contact me at anytime! Available anytime but would like to know ahead of time so I can accommodate with my schedule since I work from home running 3 businesses. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats that are freely roaming around my house. If necessary, I can come to your place if you’re more comfortable with that.
About: I've had animals since I was a girl and haven't been without a pet since I was 10 years of age. Have had multiple dogs and cats at one time but now down to one 13-yr old male. Will always love and have pets as they are an integral part of my life. I derive much joy from their presence. Daily walks and attention to my own dog and look in on friend's dogs when they're away. My dog has his own bed for daytime but sleeps in my bed at night. I have a good sense about animals and will follow the routine they're used to. I love to connect with any animal if they want it and will give cuddles and rubs for comfort and love ❤️
“Tamaria and her son took excellent care of my precious boy Hunter. He was full of happiness and joy when I returned home. I would use her again in a heartbeat. Thanks Tamaria! Connie H”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was a child. I’ve had turtles, dogs, cats, a snake, geckos, ferrets, and rats! All of my animals have or have had play areas, toys, treats, and enrichment activities. Depending on the animal and their personal needs, they also get outside time. I’m currently working full-time on Rover, so I have ample time to take care of your furry companions and ensure they receive all the necessary care. I have a fenced-in yard and two friendly dogs. All my animals have or have had playrooms or designated areas where they can relax and enjoy themselves.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and other pets for over 8 years and have experience with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. As a teacher, I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to details, and I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I am currently available full-time for pet care, which gives me a flexible schedule for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. I understand that pets thrive on routine, and I do my best to accommodate each pet’s normal schedule. Whether your pet needs an early morning visit, a midday check-in, or evening care, I strive to provide reliable and consistent service. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, comfort, and respect for both the pet and the owner’s space. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, exercise, and care instructions to help maintain your pet’s normal routine. With experience in pet daycare, boarding facilities, and basic grooming, I am comfortable working with pets of different ages, sizes, and temperaments. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Mary has a great set-up with large, fenced yard. My dog Nova can get separation anxiety, but she was a happy pup when I picked her up after a week of boarding - this tells me her needs were met and she felt comfortable. Great service and daily pics!”
“Jeff & Jirapun were amazing sitters! They were incredibly attentive to our dogs’ needs and took such great care of them during their stay. We really appreciated all the photos and updates they sent, it was so reassuring to see how happy our pups were. They even took them on a little adventure to HEB, which we loved! Overall, they were fantastic sitters, and we could clearly tell our dogs were happy and well taken care of. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring and reliable sitters. 😊”

Would definitely recommend and I am certain I will book again!”
