“If I could give Dorothy 10 stars out of 5 I would. She was absolutely phenomenal with my dogs she sent pictures daily, multiple times a day. My dogs definitely were so comfortable they made themselves right at home. There were no issues or any concerns. My pups stayed for over a week and continued to eat and play with the rest of their furry friends. I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone and everyone who has a friendly pup.”
“We will not leave our puppy when going out of town unless it is with: 1. Family or 2. Maddison and Wesley. He’s part of their family when he goes to stay and he loves their kiddos and pups too!”
“Isabella was simply AMAZING!!!!! A true gem from start to finish. She came to our home to meet both of our girls, one of them a 17 year old senior. She answered all of my questions and really took her time to get to know the dogs. We boarded with her for over 3 weeks while being out of country and she kept me up to date on how the girls were doing and sent pictures. The services provided by her were amazing and I have asked her to be our permanent sitter when we cannot take the girls. I know taking care of a senior dog is a whole other ballpark than a young(er) dog but both girls looked happy and healthy in all pics and when we returned. I would leave the girls with Isabella in a heart beat again! Thank you again for taking such good care of them!!!! I would also like to mention that she doesn’t run a “boarding factory” like some of the star sitters on here whom I had contacted when searching for a good match for our needs. It shows that she cares about the animal and not how many dogs she can cramp in her house to make the most money.”
“Tony took absolute great care of Zeus! From the very beginning, he was genuine on my dog’s care and asked about his commands/ cues/ routine so he could have consistency still. I also regularly received photos and updates on his stay and Tony was kind enough to do a little extra training with Zeus. I am so glad to know my baby was taken care of as if he was part of their family!”
“Megan is my go to sitter. My dog wasn't feeling too well on his last visit and I felt comfortable knowing he was in good hands with Megan. She is also always gracious in any changes that happen in my business travels and willing to work with me. Thanks Megan!”
“Shane and his family took amazing care of shadow. Shadow enjoyed playing with Pepper and Shane with his family. Would recommend him to anyone who needs a pet sitter. It was also amazing I received pictures and updates everyday!!”
“Krysta was absolutely wonderful! We did a meet and greet beforehand and our pup immediately took to her. She was very communicative and flexible and kept us up to date with photos and videos. Our pup can be a Velcro dog but it didn’t bother her and it was very obvious our pup had a great time with her. We will not hesitate to reach out to Krysta again for our pet sitting needs.”
“Lindsey was absolutely awesome with watching our dog Ace. She’s super responsive, attentive, and accommodating. Ace always has an absolute blast when he stays with her and he always get excited when I pull up in the driveway. Whether its playing with other dogs, fetch, walking or going on runs… Lindsey and her family will make sure your dog never has a dull day and plenty of stimulation.”
“My Mei was well taken care of Joel and his wife took very good care communicated every single day sent photos the show progress that they were making with my baby and I was very satisfied with her. She was very well behaved when she came home and I would definitely rebook with them again. it was like she was being taken care of by family.”
“Kristi is an amazing boarder. She did a fantastic job watching Kobe and June while we were out of town. She kept us updated with their eating schedule and sent pictures and videos. We will definitely be using Kristi again in the event we are in need of a boarder for our dogs! Can’t thank her enough.”
“It’s always a good feeling to know that your dog is in good hands when you are away. I went out of state for the weekend and became stuck because of the snow in Texas. Jennifer was vey kind to watch my dog for an extra two days. I am appreciative and from the pictures and videoes she sent Rocky looks very happy. Thank you so much!”
“Martha did an excellent job at taking care of my baby. She is very thorough and is very detail oriented and if your dog needs meds she is able to give them. She sends pictures every morning and is highly communicative. Excellent sitter over all and will book with her again.”
“Kyra was amazing with our two dogs. Drop off and pick up were super easy. She had a beautiful back yard for them to play in along with a lovely home for them to cool off and be lazy in. I received updates on their stay along with acute photo. I'm already rebooking with her again!”
“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!”

“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 ☺️”

About: Pet sitting is a rewarding and fulfilling job that requires patience, compassion and a love for animals. I started pet walking and house sitting for family friends and neighbors at 12 years old. This helped me develop a strong bond with animals and taught me the importance of responsible pet care. With two years of experience working at a boarding/grooming facility and currently working at a vet clinic, I have expanded my skill set to include giving pets medication, dealing with and overcoming scared/aggressive behaviors, providing extra care for old/disabled pets. I was also a cross country runner for 6 years so your babies will get plenty of exercise! I understand the value of trust and reliability when it comes to taking care of someone’s beloved pets, and I take pride in providing top-notch care for furry friend that comes my way! Pet sitting is my primary occupation! I’m so grateful to be able to provide around the clock care for your pets, so they can be checked in on as frequently as needed. I offer top-quality care for your pets. Every day, I start with a 3 mile run with my baby, followed by a mix of training, playtime with toys, and leisurely walks filled with exploration. My fur baby is crated during bedtime occasionally but he also enjoy lounging on the furniture during the day. I firmly believe in positive reinforcement and redirection using treats and toys! Rest assured, your pets will receive the utmost attention and care under my watch.
“Jasmine was an amazing care taker! She took the time to make sure my cats were well taken care of and provided great communication. Titan and Aspen were so happy to have her come by”
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’ve been around animals my entire life, growing up on a farm where caring for a variety of animals was part of everyday life. My experience also includes working as a wrangler out West, where I handled and cared for horses and livestock in a professional setting. From puppies and dogs to larger animals, I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. At home, I have an energetic English Springer Spaniel puppy who loves making new friends and playing with other dogs. We have a fully fenced yard with plenty of room to run, play, and explore safely. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, active playtime, or just extra attention and affection, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and treated like part of the family while they’re with me. Daily updates and photos are always included so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I work outside the home from typically 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM on weekdays and am typically home the rest of the day. This allows me to spend plenty of quality time with pets in my care, including walks, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention. My evenings and weekends are largely spent at home, ensuring your pet receives plenty of companionship and care throughout their stay. Pets are cared for in a safe, calm home with a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. When I’m away at work, all pets stay safely inside. I maintain a structured, secure environment and provide attentive care based on lifelong animal experience, ensuring your pet feels comfortable and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have been taking care of dogs for years. My own dogs are like my children and I have been training dogs for over 4 years with my own care. I treat every animal with kindness and love and I am always down for snuggles! I am available for evenings and weekends and depending on the time always down for walks! Please let me what schedule fits your needs. I would love to set up a routine. I am very much looking to assist you and your animals all your needs. I am flexible and willing to learn what is best for your dogs and any other animals in your home!

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.

Furbabies are given cuddles, hugs, and attention. They are fed, walked and allowed to run around and squabble in the back yard.
“Dorothy is great! Zoey is a timid, slightly anxious pup, but looked right at home during her first day of doggy daycare. She had a blast playing and lounging with the other pups. Dorothy is patient and very caring, and it shows. I know Zoey looks forward to going back!”

About: Hello!! My names Tatum I’ve taken care of pets my whole life, my best friend when i was born was a weenie dawg, but i’ve had 4 dogs total in my life. I currently have 3 cuddly cats and a 1yr old, big ol handsome lab! I can do day or overnight sitting in my own apartment, I know there’s no straight access to a backyard :(( but i take my dog to the apartments dog park twice a day for 30-90mins. My apartment also has a nice big field right outside my door that i take them to go potty as many times needed! I live with my fiance and we work opposite shifts so someone is always awake! I don’t have any experience with shot medications but i sure know how to hide a pill in some chicken or cheese! We have plenty of toys to play with and my lab LOVES making new friends, he always has a ton of energy to keep your furr baby busy! If your dog needs to be crated or isn’t crate trained i can accommodate that, i have big crate here or you’re welcome to bring your own. Im available for overnight boarding/day sitting on the weekends (Fri@4:00pm - Sun@11:00pm) I work full time(M-F) 2 minutes away from my apartment and can go home on breaks. And they wouldn’t mind if i needed to leave for 10 minutes for a potty break. So if you absolutely need me to watch on a weekday i can make accommodations. My fiance will be home during the day since he works an opposite shift but probably asleep. I also have a camera in the living room. We can crate if crate trained if you feel more comfortable with that! My puppy had a bad chewing habit when he was little, so we only keep the floors clean (except for toys of course) I can easily crate your dog if needed.

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.

About: I am a stay at home homesteader that has three rescue doggos that live inside and a guardian livestock dog that spends her days taking care of the farm. We have hatched, raised and spend our days giving all the snacks to almost 50 chickens, 17 guineas, and 6 ducks. We have 2 goats one of which is about to give us a third. I know how hard it can be the travel with peace of mind without your babies with you, and I’d love to be able to help people enjoy your time away from home. Being able to set my own schedule while caring for other animals will allow me the ability to still care for my own animals without pulling time from them. I will do my very best to keep your fur babies routines exactly the same, and love and care for them like I love and care for my own babies.

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.

We want you to feel comfortable with us as well as allowing us to take care of your baby.

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.
About: I consider myself the perfect caregiver. Flexible schedule, lots of love, high energy. With references! I have been dog/house sitting for friends regularly for a few years, and a pet enthusiast/caregiver my entire life! I have experience with multiple types of animals. I am a part-time stylist looking to fill my extra time getting paid for something I love to do. My two Siamese cats, Pixie & Dusty, are pretty low maintenance. They have dry food/water dispensers and get wet food as a “treat” at dinner time. My Great Dane puppy, Memphis, needs a little bit more of my time. If I stay over at your house, I need to make sure my dog is kenneled by 8pm, and let out the next morning no later than 6:30am. My schedule is very flexible otherwise! At client’s homes I always follow instructions carefully. I prefer to have a few notes of written instructions to reference. Instructions can be printed out or sent to my phone. My animals are pretty low-maintenance, so if I end up sitting locally at a clients home, it’s not a lot of trouble. I don’t mind sleeping/cuddling with your furbaby at night. ❤️

I have the ability to work evenings and weekends when needed. I will make sure to follow all the instructions given to me to properly care for your pet. I have extreme attention to detail and am able to recognize if there might be a problem with an animal because my job has been to have an awareness about how an animal is acting for the past 10 years.

About: I grew up on a 100-acre ranch with 13 dogs, so caring for animals has been part of my daily life for as long as I can remember. I helped raise numerous litters of puppies, which taught me everything from feeding schedules and socialization to house training and keeping a close eye on the little ones. Today I regularly watch my friends’ pets and care for my grandparents’ two dogs — feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. Dogs are my favorite people, and I treat every one like my own. I can’t wait to meet your best friend! I’m a stay-at-home mom, so I’m home the majority of the day and your pup will rarely be left alone. My schedule is flexible, which means plenty of time for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and sticking to whatever routine your dog is used to. The house is quiet and calm, which works well for dogs who prefer a low-key environment. My home is a safe, pet-friendly space where your dog is treated like family. We have a large fully fenced backyard with plenty of room to run, play, and sniff around safely. I have a mini blue heeler of my own who’s great company for social dogs, and I’m happy to keep visiting pets separated if yours does better solo (only have her occasionally). I stick closely to the feeding, medication, and walking routine you provide, keep dogs leashed on every outing, and send photo and video updates so you always know how your best friend is doing. If your dog is crate-trained, I’m comfortable using one for rest or bedtime.
About: I love pets!! I have owned many animals growing up and loved each and every one. I currently own 3 dogs and a hedgehog. They are all playful and loving animals!! I would love to take care of, play with, and have fun with your furry friend! Since I have 3 dogs of my own, my days consist of playing tug of war, chase, and doing tricks! I enjoy making a routine for the animals I watch so that they know what to expect while you are away. I understand accidents happen!! If you trust your pet to free roam in your home while you’re away that’s no problem. It is no big deal to me to clean up after your pet. All I ask is anything that your pet will need, you leave out for me to easily find!

I have a fenced in yard, and offer leash walking potty breaks. I also have a few pups of mine inside that are friendly and ready to play. I can also offer a crate for your dogs and keep them comfy no matter what they need!
About: I have always had several dogs in my home growing up, am a dog lover at heart, and miss my pups. I work in Waco so I am available anywhere between Waco and temple! Like I said, I work remote 100% of the time, so I don’t have any time or day restrictions really. I am also available weekends, etc. I have lots of love to give& great bully rubs!! I am very mindful of making sure they have water, etc. I love dogs of all shapes and sizes, can’t wait to meet yours.
“Kaila was so great!!! With only a days notice she kindly came and took excellent care of our 6 month old puppy. She did exactly what I would have, and even took the most beautiful pictures of him (literally better than any I’ve taken myself?) and I will certainly rebook with her!”

“If I could give Dorothy 10 stars out of 5 I would. She was absolutely phenomenal with my dogs she sent pictures daily, multiple times a day. My dogs definitely were so comfortable they made themselves right at home. There were no issues or any concerns. My pups stayed for over a week and continued to eat and play with the rest of their furry friends. I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone and everyone who has a friendly pup.”
“We will not leave our puppy when going out of town unless it is with: 1. Family or 2. Maddison and Wesley. He’s part of their family when he goes to stay and he loves their kiddos and pups too!”
“Isabella was simply AMAZING!!!!! A true gem from start to finish. She came to our home to meet both of our girls, one of them a 17 year old senior. She answered all of my questions and really took her time to get to know the dogs. We boarded with her for over 3 weeks while being out of country and she kept me up to date on how the girls were doing and sent pictures. The services provided by her were amazing and I have asked her to be our permanent sitter when we cannot take the girls. I know taking care of a senior dog is a whole other ballpark than a young(er) dog but both girls looked happy and healthy in all pics and when we returned. I would leave the girls with Isabella in a heart beat again! Thank you again for taking such good care of them!!!! I would also like to mention that she doesn’t run a “boarding factory” like some of the star sitters on here whom I had contacted when searching for a good match for our needs. It shows that she cares about the animal and not how many dogs she can cramp in her house to make the most money.”
“Tony took absolute great care of Zeus! From the very beginning, he was genuine on my dog’s care and asked about his commands/ cues/ routine so he could have consistency still. I also regularly received photos and updates on his stay and Tony was kind enough to do a little extra training with Zeus. I am so glad to know my baby was taken care of as if he was part of their family!”
“Megan is my go to sitter. My dog wasn't feeling too well on his last visit and I felt comfortable knowing he was in good hands with Megan. She is also always gracious in any changes that happen in my business travels and willing to work with me. Thanks Megan!”
“Shane and his family took amazing care of shadow. Shadow enjoyed playing with Pepper and Shane with his family. Would recommend him to anyone who needs a pet sitter. It was also amazing I received pictures and updates everyday!!”
“Krysta was absolutely wonderful! We did a meet and greet beforehand and our pup immediately took to her. She was very communicative and flexible and kept us up to date with photos and videos. Our pup can be a Velcro dog but it didn’t bother her and it was very obvious our pup had a great time with her. We will not hesitate to reach out to Krysta again for our pet sitting needs.”
“Lindsey was absolutely awesome with watching our dog Ace. She’s super responsive, attentive, and accommodating. Ace always has an absolute blast when he stays with her and he always get excited when I pull up in the driveway. Whether its playing with other dogs, fetch, walking or going on runs… Lindsey and her family will make sure your dog never has a dull day and plenty of stimulation.”
“My Mei was well taken care of Joel and his wife took very good care communicated every single day sent photos the show progress that they were making with my baby and I was very satisfied with her. She was very well behaved when she came home and I would definitely rebook with them again. it was like she was being taken care of by family.”
“It’s always a good feeling to know that your dog is in good hands when you are away. I went out of state for the weekend and became stuck because of the snow in Texas. Jennifer was vey kind to watch my dog for an extra two days. I am appreciative and from the pictures and videoes she sent Rocky looks very happy. Thank you so much!”
“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!”
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 have plenty of time to care and love your dog. I treat every animal as if it was my own. My home is also spacious and I have a large fenced in back yard with a back porch. Your dog will get all the love and cuddles while you’re away and be in great hands! 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! 😊
“Perfect sitter! Communication was consistent and the dogs were so tired on the drive home. I felt like they were welcome and had a good weekend while I was away! I will be using this sitter again.”
“Josh is great! Sends daily updates with lots of pictures. I never had to worry about Nilla & Coosa while gone to Utah this past week. Especially not having cell service during the day. I knew my girls were being well taken care of. Josh is my go-to sitter when I need to leave my girls for overnight stays!”
