“We can’t recommend Kerri enough. She went above and beyond with extra playtime and plenty of walks. She kept us updated with pictures and messages so we always knew our little boy was doing great. If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and attentive Kerri is the perfect choice!”
“Courtney and her family were really awesome with Caramel while I was traveling for the weekend. They provided her lots of cuddles and hugs. Courtney shared some photos of Caramel over the weekend and that was nice to see my pup happy and well-adjusted. Caramel ran around the backyard with their golden retriever, and she even got to use the kiddie pool in the backyard. When I picked up Caramel, everything was gathered together and she got a treat bag to take home! I would definitely book with Courtney again in the future!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Erica took such thoughtful, attentive care of my two senior dogs, both of whom need daily medication and a little extra TLC. She was incredibly patient and gentle, making sure they got their meds on time and giving them all the cuddles they needed to feel at home. Her updates and photos gave me total peace of mind, and it was clear they were comfortable, relaxed, and well loved in her care. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can fully trust, especially for my older pups. Highly recommend and will definitely book with her again!”
“Billy did a great job with our super energetic pup and on a rainy day at that! Looking forward to bringing him back to enjoy the huge yard when the weather is better.”
“I felt very comfortable leaving our 2 dogs with Tristan for the weekend. They took to her immediately at our meet and greet and upon drop off they couldn’t get in the door fast enough. I received daily updates along with pictures. Upon leaving, her daughters made sure to come tell my dogs good bye and even kiss them on the head. That was very reassuring for me that they were well loved during their stay.”
“Our shy guy had a great time staying with Jonathan! He loved the walks and all the attention! Jonathan is a great sitter and we would definitely use him again in the future!”
“Sherron is great! She has such a great personality. She is cool, calm and collected. She is also a great communicator! She loved on my pups and they got a lot of attention from her! I would use her again!”
“Kristina and her household were an incredible extended family for our dog, Bailey! She was kind, informative, affectionate, and kept us up to date with plenty of pics, videos and messages every day. As we left Kristina’s house, Bailey was genuinely sad to leave, and I get the sense that she can’t wait for next time! Highly recommend Kristina as a crucial part of anyone’s dog care family!”
“Bethany was so great with my boxer! We were nervous to leave them with someone they’ve never met before, but Bethany took amazing care of our baby and sent us pictures and updates to put us at ease. Highly recommend and would use her again!”
“I almost don’t want to rate them because they were so great! Amazing communication and sent us tons of photos which we really appreciated. Doggies seemed really happy and relaxed”
“Nathan was a great pet sitter! Left our 13year old lab with him and his wife for five days and everything went smoothly. You can tell they love animals and updated me on how our dog was doing often and with pictures. Our dog was in great hands. Would definitely book with Nathan again in the future.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Laura as our pet sitter. She took great care of our Havanese-poodle and kept us updated throughout, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our pet was well cared for and comfortable in her care. We truly appreciate her attention and reliability, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”
“Chiao was by far one of the best -if not the best-sitters we’ve ever had for our dog , Saburi. She was so kind, courteous, and wonderfully communicative. Chiao sent frequent updates throughout the day along with adorable photos. I never once felt anxious about how Saburi was doing away from home . Her dogs are incredibly well mannered and got along beautifully with mine. I truly can’t express enough how amazing Chiao is! If you have the opportunity to have Chiao watch your pet, *don’t* hesitate, go with her!Chiao was by far one of the best -if not the best-sitters we’ve ever had for our dog , Saburi.

“Becca and her husband too great care of Sonny while I was away for the weekend. She came home happy and healthy. This was really the first time I left her in the care of people I don’t know well. Becca sent me video and text updates which put my mind at ease. I will use her services again and would recommend you give them a try.”
“My puppy had the best time with Elizabeth. She not only picked up my puppy from another sitter when my plane was delayed by a day, but she also sent frequent photos and videos to ensure I felt at ease leaving my puppy with her. She played with my puppy a lot in her backyard and informed me about the new toys my puppy loves to play with. My puppy came home happy, exhausted and slept more than I had seen her sleep in a while. I would definitely book with her again!”
“Stephanie is the only person I've ever left my dog with that I feel 100% at ease. She treats Rosie like she's one of her own, and Rosie always has the best time. I love receiving photo updates during the stay!”

“Ashley had done an amazing job with our cats and we are thankful to continue to use her services. She always provides us with updates and photos while we are away. I would highly recommend her to watch your animals.”
“Marina was fantastic with our crew of five cats! She was incredibly communicative throughout the sit, sending regular updates with photos that put our minds at ease every day. She gave all the kitties their regular outside cube time and even kept our fish thriving. What really stood out was how she won over our most particular cat, which is not an easy feat and speaks to her patience and genuine care. We’d trust Marina with our cats (and fish!) again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!”
“Chealsea is so wonderful! My outdoor cat didn’t need as much tending to but with cold weather I definitely was glad she could get a look at her and make sure all was ok. Would book Chealsea again of course! Peace of mind with good check ins!”
“Jessica did an amazing job with our two large dogs. They took right to her when she first met her and we had no issues with her taking care of them while we were gone. This is the first time we have used Rover to have someone come to our home while we were away and we are not disappointed one bit. We made sure to read reviews of all the sitters available in our area before choosing Jessica. We had a meet and greet with her and our pups to make sure it was a good fit, and we have to say, we made the right choice. She answered promptly, and when asked if she minded checking our mail one day when we had expected something important, she didn’t hesitate. Would definitely use her again.”
“Courtney took my request last minute when our prior dog sitting plan fell through. She was extremely responsive and made me feel comfortable that my two dogs would be well taken care of. I loved getting the updates and photos from each visit and being able to communicate between visits. My dogs were clearly comfortable with her, and were able to play, cuddle, and be themselves while I was gone. It gave me great peace of mind of my travels to know they were so well cared for.”
“With Tristen, all relief that my little’s were safe and sound and attended to meant the world to me. I was free to be the mother of the groom and focused on my son, his bride and the different events in their ceremonially weekend 💗 Thank you Tristen, and for the photos too.”
“Chelsey is amazing. She is kind, professional, and our dog Maggie loved her immediately. Chelsey took the time to get to know our dog, her play and food habits, and she makes sure Maggie is loved for the entire visit. My fiance and I loved meeting Chelsey so we booked weekly recurring visits to help Maggie have more fun when we are at work.”
“Christine and Felipe were awesome! Quick to respond, on time, and left the place looking exactly like I left it. My cat was happy and healthy upon my return. 10/10 sit!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for cats my whole life, from playful kittens to senior kitties who need extra gentleness. I understand cat personalities and make sure each one feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m experienced with medications, feeding routines, litter boxes, and reading cat body language. I’m patient with shy or anxious cats and let them go at their own pace. Whether it’s cuddles on the couch, playtime with their favorite toy, or just some quiet company, I make sure your cat feels happy and cared for while you’re away.
About: Just like my love for dogs, it extends over to kitty fur babies as well! I have about the same years of experience (10) caring for dogs & cats alike, and am able to recognize the differences in care necessary to ensure your cat is the utmost comfortable in their routine! I’m also able to give oral medication if need be. Whether it’s staying indoors & adapting to your cat’s specific personality traits & characteristics, or maybe even taking them for a walk with a kitty harness or letting them explore in their backyard, I am committed to making sure they’re cared for in the best way for them possible!
“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 ☺️”
“Megan was great with my Great Dane and St. Bernard. Meet and greet went great and I even had to ask her to do extra when I noticed a fault in my dog feeder. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Billy was great with our two cats! We live more in the country, and he took the time to come see our house setup before we left. He was very understanding when a few issues arose from our end, and he provided great updates during his visits. We would definitely use him again!”
“We really loved Elizabeth! The dogs, as well! One of my dogs, who is not affectionate with his kisses gave her a few licks! I am pretty sure she is the first person to get licks on the first visit. I know my dogs are in good hands with her!”
“I have large guardian breeds, and finding someone I trust with them isn't something I take lightly. Kate has consistently exceeded every expectation. She's calm, confident, responsible, and has a natural ability to connect with dogs that can be intimidating to most people. What truly sets her apart is her proactive communication. I never have to wonder how things are going because she's already sent an update, photo, or thoughtful note before the question even crosses my mind. She treats communication the same way she treats pet care—with attention, professionalism, and genuine care. Kate has that rare combination of reliability and intuition. She notices the little things, anticipates needs, and makes both pets and owners feel completely at ease. Whether it's managing routines, handling strong personalities, or simply showing up consistently and dependably, she does it all with grace. My dogs don't hand out trust easily, and neither do I. Kate earned both. If Rover had a Hall of Fame, she'd be in it.”
“Jennifer did a wonderful job taking care of Castiel, Crowley, and Lilith. She was caring, attentive, and clearly took the time to understand each of their personalities. I especially appreciated how patient she was with Crowley, who is a rescue and still getting used to humans. By the end of the stay, she had earned his confidence, which says a lot about her calm and compassionate approach with animals. I felt comfortable knowing my cats were in good hands, and I will definitely consider booking her again in the future. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“My senior kitty loves Marissa! She's very reliable & communicative so I know he's in good hands when I'm away. 1000% refer her to anyone who wants to be sure their pet is in capable & loving hands when away. Thx Marissa!”

“Wonderful family! Our goldendoodle was comfortable and had a great time. They were very flexible with our plans and made it easy for us on our trip to Austin! Thanks so much!”

“He’s was great to work with! Quick friendly and easy going communication. She sent lots of photos, loved the welcome sign with Roxie’s name on it. Would love to have Jes watch my pup again!”
“I am so thrilled that we found Paul & Karina! This was our first time using Rover, and I couldn't have imagined a better outcome. They took our puppy with EXTREMELY little notice (like, less that 12 hours notice) and watched him all day long. I got tons of pictures and updates throughout the day, and my dog looked like he was having the time of his life. Karina is incredibly friendly and welcoming, and I knew from the minute I met her our dog was in good hands. I will definitely be using them again in the future!!!! I HIGHLY recommend!”
About: Hey guys! I have been taking care of the doggos for the past 8 years. I have my own Siberian Husky who is the friendliest guy around. I can take care of any medical needs such as oral and intramuscular if needed. My boy has elbow dysplasia so I’m well versed in giving medication. I have tons of patience when it comes to the doggos and will work with them. We have our own dog park which is right around the corner. They will never be bored. I have a hybrid work schedule and my office is 4 minutes away. I’ll be gone in the morning and home by 12pm Monday through Thursday. Friday through Sunday I am home all day. I take care of them like they are my own children. Feed them on schedule and playtime as well. They will get all the love and care that I give my dog Vincent. We will play everyday at the dog park. If you aren’t fond of dog parks for your pup we can go on long nature walks near my neighborhood. If your pup just needs a spot to lay their head and watch movies they can do so on my bed. I have plenty of space for them to roam around have two story apartment with 2 bedrooms. They will love my place.
“Deanna provided amazing care to my husky puppy! She was very accommodating with dropping her off. I could tell my pup was very happy at the end of the day with Deanna, and slept the night away when she got home to me with all the activity she was given. Definitely will be having Deanna host my puppy in the future!”
“Gunja was absolutely wonderful with Churro! From the very beginning, she made us feel completely comfortable leaving him with her. She was caring, attentive, and treated Churro like he was her own. We also loved that he had Milo around for company. They got along so well! 🐶 Gunja kept us updated throughout his stay and sent us pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell Churro was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We’re so grateful to have found someone we can trust with him and would absolutely leave Churro with Gunja and Milo again. Highly recommend!”
About: I work from home, so your dog gets constant company and supervision - not hours alone in a crate. I have crates and beds set up in every room - bedroom, living area and right next to my desk in my office. I also have a dog hammock on the patio, so your dog can settle in wherever feels comfortable to them. I'm experienced with positive reinforcement training, including hand signals and treat-based cues, which works well for dogs who are shy, older, or still learning. I also have easy access to walking trails and a dog park, so there's always an option for exercise, whether your dog wants a calm stroll or more active playtime. I have a group of friends and their pups at the dog park that played with my pup Charli for years until I recently lost her to cancer. Dogs are family to me. I've cared for a dog through serious illness, so I understand what patience, routine, and gentle care really look like. I will bring that same level of attention to your dog while in my care. I'll keep you updated with photos, videos, and check-ins so you always know your pup is safe, happy, and loved. I work from home. I am available for boarding Monday through Friday. I am not available on weekends currently. In most cases, I can have a drop off scheduled for evenings on Sunday if necessary but pick up will have to be on Friday by 6pm. I do not have any pets currently. I just lost my 5 year old pup to cancer. She was my life. I trained her with hand signals. She was well behaved and my travel companion. I love dogs and have the patience and availability to care for them. I have a patio with a dog hammock for relaxing. I have two crates and multiple beds set up in different rooms - my bedroom, my office and the living room. Dogs are allowed on the couch and if they are more comfy sleeping in the bed, I'm ok with that. I have trails all around my complex that I walk daily for leash walks and a nice dog park. If your dog is not friendly with other dogs but still needs exercise, I have the freedom to go to the dog park during the day when the park is mostly empty. I have a group of friends that my pup played with at the dog park and it is a great community here.
“Lynn was amazing! Firstly she was able to accommodate a last minute doggy daycare request. This was our first time with Lynn and she kept me up to date the whole day with pictures and updates on Teddy. She even made sure to check with me before adding broth to his lunch. A+++! He had a FANTASTIC time and I could not be more grateful. Thank you Lynn!”
“If you're scrolling & not sure who to choose...look no further. Leilani is the only pet sitter you need. An exceptional sitter who goes above and beyond. Her love for animals was obvious from the moment I contacted her. She treated my pet with so much care, patience, and genuine affection. She is reliable, attentive, and clearly passionate about animals. I received thoughtful updates, and my pet was calm, comfortable, and well‑cared‑for when I picked her up. A true professional with a big heart. Mario”

“Nicole has been fantastic to work with. Our fur baby is such an important part of the family, we are always cautious of whoever is caring for her. Nicole is not only very kind & professional, but also reliable and flexible. She administers our pups medications, spends quality time playing/walking her, and also has been kind enough to clean her up if she happens to get dirty. Our dog loves her! I can’t rave about her enough, we are so grateful to have found her! 10/10 recommend!”
“Shima has been awesome. Brice loves her daily walks and we didn't have to miss her walks while we were in town for the holidays. Shima was very accommodating around the weather and timing of the walks and it is clear that Brice enjoys her time with Shima. Thank you so much, we will be back in touch next time we are in the area.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Marina has been an amazing pet sitter for Benny! She is incredibly flexible with scheduling, communicates consistently, and always keeps us updated while we’re away. Most importantly, she takes wonderful care of Benny and treats him like he’s her own. It gives us such peace of mind knowing he’s in such loving and capable hands. We highly recommend Marina to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter!”
About: I started as a little kid taking care of my family dogs.As I got older I watched my grandparents dogs over night.Now I have dog name Daisy "Animals aren't just a job for me – they're my entire world! Every day is an adventure filled with wagging tails, purring companions, and the joy of understanding what makes our furry friends tick. My home is often buzzing with happy pets, and I truly believe that living alongside them teaches us so much. This daily immersion in the world of pets means I bring not just experience, but a deep, personal understanding and endless patience to every animal I care for." "When I'm caring for your pets in your home, their safety and well-being are my absolute top priorities. I'm meticulous about following your specific instructions, maintaining routines, and ensuring a secure and comfortable environment for your furry family members. You can trust me to treat your home with the utmost respect and to provide vigilant, loving care so you can have complete peace of mind while you're away."
About: A safe, clean home away from home, where every dog is treated like family. With lots of love, personalized attention, and help from my loyal German Shepherd, assistant, Lucy, your pup will feel right at home! But sets me apart from others is I can help crate dogs, potty train, to giving them their meds and walking them with a ginger lead for those elderly ones. I am currently working less than part-time. And for me, there’s no better way to spend that free time than with dogs. I also include them in my daily tasks. Every Dog’s comfort level is respected. I have both large and small crates available for dogs who are crate trained or whose owners prefer scheduled crate time (up to 90 minutes per day). I also use an indoor playpen and separate areas within the home to create healthy boundaries. Allow for quiet rest periods and ensure all dogs remain comfortable and safe. My goal is to provide personalized care, maintain each dog routine as closely as possible, and create a calm, loving environment, where pets feel secure, happy and part of the family while you’re away. It might be cliché, but I treat every dog as if it was my own.
“This was my first time using Rover. I can’t recommend Jessica enough! My situation was a little different; we are visiting family in Marble Falls but my husband and I spent a few days in Austin and needed someone to walk our dog. We didn’t have personal interaction with Jessica but my mother in law did and said she was very polite and professional. So much so they she shared her information with the neighbors. Thank you Jessica.”

“We can’t recommend Kerri enough. She went above and beyond with extra playtime and plenty of walks. She kept us updated with pictures and messages so we always knew our little boy was doing great. If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and attentive Kerri is the perfect choice!”
“Courtney and her family were really awesome with Caramel while I was traveling for the weekend. They provided her lots of cuddles and hugs. Courtney shared some photos of Caramel over the weekend and that was nice to see my pup happy and well-adjusted. Caramel ran around the backyard with their golden retriever, and she even got to use the kiddie pool in the backyard. When I picked up Caramel, everything was gathered together and she got a treat bag to take home! I would definitely book with Courtney again in the future!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Erica took such thoughtful, attentive care of my two senior dogs, both of whom need daily medication and a little extra TLC. She was incredibly patient and gentle, making sure they got their meds on time and giving them all the cuddles they needed to feel at home. Her updates and photos gave me total peace of mind, and it was clear they were comfortable, relaxed, and well loved in her care. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can fully trust, especially for my older pups. Highly recommend and will definitely book with her again!”
“Billy did a great job with our super energetic pup and on a rainy day at that! Looking forward to bringing him back to enjoy the huge yard when the weather is better.”
“I felt very comfortable leaving our 2 dogs with Tristan for the weekend. They took to her immediately at our meet and greet and upon drop off they couldn’t get in the door fast enough. I received daily updates along with pictures. Upon leaving, her daughters made sure to come tell my dogs good bye and even kiss them on the head. That was very reassuring for me that they were well loved during their stay.”
“Our shy guy had a great time staying with Jonathan! He loved the walks and all the attention! Jonathan is a great sitter and we would definitely use him again in the future!”
“Sherron is great! She has such a great personality. She is cool, calm and collected. She is also a great communicator! She loved on my pups and they got a lot of attention from her! I would use her again!”
“Kristina and her household were an incredible extended family for our dog, Bailey! She was kind, informative, affectionate, and kept us up to date with plenty of pics, videos and messages every day. As we left Kristina’s house, Bailey was genuinely sad to leave, and I get the sense that she can’t wait for next time! Highly recommend Kristina as a crucial part of anyone’s dog care family!”
“Bethany was so great with my boxer! We were nervous to leave them with someone they’ve never met before, but Bethany took amazing care of our baby and sent us pictures and updates to put us at ease. Highly recommend and would use her again!”
“Nathan was a great pet sitter! Left our 13year old lab with him and his wife for five days and everything went smoothly. You can tell they love animals and updated me on how our dog was doing often and with pictures. Our dog was in great hands. Would definitely book with Nathan again in the future.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Laura as our pet sitter. She took great care of our Havanese-poodle and kept us updated throughout, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our pet was well cared for and comfortable in her care. We truly appreciate her attention and reliability, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”
“Becca and her husband too great care of Sonny while I was away for the weekend. She came home happy and healthy. This was really the first time I left her in the care of people I don’t know well. Becca sent me video and text updates which put my mind at ease. I will use her services again and would recommend you give them a try.”
“Manny took great care of our two pups while we were on vacation for a week. He was organized, very responsive, and kept us updated with pictures. We also had a last minute emergency and needed to extend the booking, and he agreed right away at the regular rate, which we really appreciated. We came home to happy, relaxed dogs and will book with him again.”
“Shuri always has a great time with Sinthiana. And I really appreciate the updates and pictures Sinthiana sends. Always communicative and responsive. Look forward to the next time!”
