“We were so thankful to have found Tabitha. It was so nice to receive her pictures, and we felt secure in knowing that our Baby was with a family that was playing with her and holding her while we were gone.”
“Luke seemed very happy with Grace & John. He went on walks, snuggled & sat on laps. Things he doesn’t normally do at home sad to to say.🥹 They even brought him home to me when it wasn’t safe for me to drive. A strong 5 statewide and highly recommended!”
“Iuliia watched my two mini dachshunds and they had a great time. She took great care of them, sent lots of pictures and I will definitely leave them with her the next time I’m out of town.”
“My fiancé and I had to leave for a few days to Houston for her niece’s baptism. Lisa watched our dog, Scout, for us and she did an amazing job. Her dog and Scout got along very well. She has a nice/big backyard that he was able to play in! She made sure to send us updates/photos everyday while we were away, which was so thoughtful and made us feel good knowing he was in good hands. We will definitely be calling Lisa again for sitting!”
“Savannah and Gabriel are the absolute best! We have been using them well over a year for our pup Charlie and he absolutely adores them! My husband and I just had our first baby and don’t have family in ATX. These guys were able to watch him within hours notice of me going into labor, drove 35 minutes both ways to pick and drop him off and left flowers for me and baby. Thank you Savannah and Gabriel for the peace of mind, sweet gift and being there when we needed it the most! We can’t thank you enough.”
“Linda kept my dog for three days and she did an excellent job with him. She even sent me a little video of Ollie speaking to me. It was adorable! I will definitely use Linda C. again!!”
“I’m so thankful to Mercedes and her family for taking care of my little Izzy. It was my first time using Rover and I greatly appreciated Mercedes’ communication and photos throughout the stay. I was at ease knowing my pup was in good hands. She was also very flexible when it came to schedule changes which was super helpful. Izzy and I will be happy to use her services again in the future 🐶”
“Lauren was great and very accommodating when my flights were cancelled/changed last minute. My dog seemed to be well taken care of and very comfortable at her home. Would definitely book again and recommend to friends.”
“Michelle was the absolute sweetest to my dog. Her and her family made me feel so comfortable leaving my dog with them and truly showed her love. She kept me updated everyday and sent pictures and videos. Thank you Michelle!”
“Marie was amazing! Communication was easy, her house and backyard were wonderful and her dog was as sweet as can be. We will definitely be checking if she us available to watch our dog next time we go out of town. Thank again Marie!”
“Patches is by far the best dog-sitter we’ve ever had. She obviously loves animals but she also took the time to reassure us by sending updates and pictures without us even asking. Drop-off and pick-up was a breeze. But, best of all, we could tell our pup was really happy, which made it so much easier to have to be away from him. Thank you, Patches! We’ll be using you again!”
“Nicole and her family were such a blessing for us! They welcomed our dog, with all his quirks, as one of their own and show patience and love to him while we were away on vacation. Cannot recommend Nicole enough!”
“Highly recommend! Our fur babies love, love, love Richard and his wife and I'm sure we will hire them in the future! They welcomed our pups and treated them as their own. They have a beautiful large fenced backyard with shaded areas and lots of room to run and play with their pets. From 1 to 10 paws, Rosie and Wesley give this boarder 12 Paws!!!”
“Can't say enough about Luna's stay with Patricia and Jason. They cared well for her and she really had a good time. This was a big event for Luna, as she doesn't get outside socialization often enough and she rarely spends time away from us. Patricia and Jason made Luna comfortable in their home and took her out on strolls around the neighborhood, which Luna absolutely loves. Equally important to me was the helpful way they communicated as sitters, both during the visit and leading up to it. They were prompt when my initial request was made, responsive to my questions, and just really great to work with. The visit went really smoothly, and they sent us updates while we were on the road. Kudos to Patricia and Jason...and many thanks!”
About: Hi I’m Hayley! I’ve been a compassionate animal lover my entire life. I grew up with cats, dogs, bunnies, guinea pigs. My husband and I rescued our Evey at 3 months old and she’s now 9 years old! We take excellent care of her and she’s treated like part of the family. I know how stressful it can be to leave your fur baby with someone else while traveling, so that is why high quality attention and care is my priority. I like to keep you updated, sending plenty of photos and always communicating. I’m available for house-sits, drop in visits for cats as well as in home boarding for dogs. My husband works from home and I have a flexible schedule. Whether you have a younger high energy dog who needs lots of playtime and walks and exercise, or you have a senior dog who likes to cuddle and lounge around on the couch I’m here for you! I’m currently working part time so I do have plenty of time to play, take care of, and give attention to your doggies! A typical day if you’re boarding your dog at our house would be outdoor time first thing in the morning, breakfast, nap time, a walk late morning or evening depending on the Texas heat, relaxing inside, dinner, more outdoor time, play time, cuddles and bed. If you’ll be boarding at our home, we have a house that is set up perfectly for dogs and a large fenced in backyard for them to run and play safely. Someone is always out there with them whether it’s me or my husband Nathan. They get plenty of attention in our home since we are home all day.
“Regina is amazing! She goes over & above for my girls. I’ve had her help multiple times now and every time she’s more and more helpful, you can definitely feel like your fur babies are in the best hands if you choose Regina as your pet caretaker!”
“Grace and Alan were beyond phenomenal!! I was updated with pictures everyday, and never had to worry about how he was doing. 10/10 recommend and definitely going back! My doggie had such a blast!”

“Madelyn and her husband were wonderful with watching our dogs. I have a very particular German shepherd and they really accommodated her behavior. I have another dog that needs daily medications and sometimes they are not the easiest to give her but they made sure she received them every day. They kept me updated and sent lots of cute photos. Thank you so much Madelyn and Barrett, yall are the best!”
About: I’ve loved caring for cats since I was 8, starting with my grandmother’s cat. I’ve also raised my own kitten, giving me hands-on experience with feeding, playtime, cuddles, cleaning, and keeping cats comfortable, happy, and safe.
“Brooke was amazing with my kitties, she went above and beyond to make sure they were happy while I was away. It was so nice to receive so many photos and updates. Thanks Brooke!”
“Bryanna was great with our Gordito! She was careful and patient with him and made sure all his needs were attended to. She was detail oriented with our specific requests. Would definitely get her again!”
About: Hi! I’m Kara and I have been passionate about animals my whole life. With 20 years in the world of wildlife and animal rescue, I’ve been around all types of situations and am confident in my experience / abilities to know what to do to ensure your cat is in capable hands! I know how hard it can be to go on vacation or a work trip, and worry about your animal fam back at home. From pricey boarding facilities to unreliable people, tossing my name in a solution hat! Can’t wait to meet your kitties, love on them and give you peace of mind!
About: I didn't grow up with cats, but I met them through friends and roommates in my twenties and quickly fell for them. What started as living alongside other people's cats turned into a real love for them, and today I own two of my own. I understand that every cat has its own personality, from confident and social to shy and independent, and I adjust my approach to what each one needs. I'm attentive to routines, litter box habits, and the small things that help a cat feel secure while their person is away.
About: Although I haven’t had much cat care experience, I have been raised around cats and may even love them more than dogs! I currently volunteer at the national humane society where I get to provide free cat play time to socialize kittens and older cats! I’m currently limited on getting my own because someone in my home is allergic, but I think it’s for the best as I would probably own 20 cats.
About: I have cared for my daughters cats at times when she goes out of town. They eat at a certain time so I go over before 6pm and play with them and then feed them. Change and clean out their litter boxes. Make sure if they made a mess to clean it so she doesn't have to. I own 3 cats myself they are outside cats but they are well fed and water everyday.
“Jessica gave great and attentive care to our cat Olive over a long weekend. She was thoughtful to ask about the timing of her first check-in and spaced the next few evenly after that, which we appreciated. We loved seeing all the pictures she added to her check-in reports! It was great to see her not only giving food and doing litter cleanup, but also engaging with and playing with Olive. We will use Jessica again in the future.”
About: To say I love cats is a complete understatement! I have had some beautiful and wonderful soul cats throughout the years. I currently have 4 of my own cats! One of my favorite things I have been able to do is help shelters when they are in need of fosters. My fiancé and I have helped rehabilitate and find homes for over 15 baby kittens and their mommas!

“Mirella did an amazing job taking care of Bella! She took her on walks, brought her to PetSmart, explored the Square, and even enjoyed some coffee together. I loved hearing about all the fun activities and how well Bella behaved. Mirella was attentive, caring, and made sure Bella had a great day. I really appreciated the updates and knowing Bella was in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend Mirella to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter!”
“We can’t thank Allina enough for taking such amazing care of our dogs, especially on such short notice. We were in a stressful situation trying to find someone last minute, and she stepped in without hesitation. She was so patient, understanding, and treated our dogs with care. Knowing they were safe, loved, and well cared for gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We are beyond grateful for her kindness and compassion. If you’re looking for someone you can truly trust with your pets, we wholeheartedly recommend Allina. We would absolutely book with her again when we are back 🩷!”

“Olivia was a life saver! We’re out of town and had to visit the hospital so we had to figure out what to do with our dog! Olivia responded right away and we were at her house in less than 10 min dropping off our pup! She was very kind and we know our dog was well cared for while we were out. It was too easy! Thank you so so much Olivia!”

Just to make sure dogs use the bathroom and get that energy out before they fall asleep.
“I’m so grateful and very happy with the care my Daisy received care from Elisa. Elisa’s response time almost immediately. Videos, pictures and updates throughout sitting time.

About: I am a nature lover! I enjoy taking my dogs, Rosemary & Kuzca, on exciting hikes and engaging adventures. We love visiting the river, the dog park, hitting nature trails around town, and quality play time at home. I also love cuddling up with my cat, Bee, when she will let me! I have always loved animals and wanted animal companions since I was a child. From dogs & cats to birds to snakes, the list of animals I’ve had under my care goes on. One thing that sets me apart is my desire to provide exquisite care for my furry/scaly/feathered friends. Every animal deserves to live a high quality life and it brings me so much joy to provide them with that. I continuously grow as a pet parent. I’m always researching new ways to improve my care techniques by staying up to date on things like nutrition, stimulation, and training. I work from home and decide my own schedule so I have a lot of flexibility in how I want to shape my day. This makes it so convenient for taking care of fur babies! We have a fenced yard that is perfect for a short zoomie sesh. Plus we have a gated dog park in our community that we frequent. I always try and incorporate as much outside time as possible.
“Kalena and her other dog crew were fantastic. Watson is a bit older, this year he will be 11. He gets lots of walks at home but this gives him other dogs to interact with more to break up his routine. We appreciate your attention and care of him.”

“Andrew has been amazing! He’s so personable and reliable, and I have zero worries when he’s walking my dog. I’m definitely a very anxious dog mom, especially since my dog is 75 pounds and can pull hard on the leash, but Andrew is incredibly patient and handles him with no problem at all. Even when my dog decides to be a little stubborn and a jerk, Andrew is always calm, kind, and attentive. He truly puts me at ease and makes sure my dog is well taken care of. He’s also very flexible and accommodating, which I really appreciate. I’m so grateful to have found him!”

I can play with and take care of dogs that have a lot of energy. I also can care for dogs who are sick and need to take medication, for I had to do this with my Shi Tzu for about a year before he passed.

I can come in during early mornings, late nights, in the middle of the day, weekends, etc. I do have longer class days on Mondays and Wednesdays, but we can discuss further if interested! I’m pretty much available any day of the week, and I do accept same-day bookings. I would prefer to go to the client’s home if the dog is a bit smaller. I have a large and friendly german shepherd who has loads of energy. I understand that this can sometimes overwhelm certain pets with certain personalities.

About: My family has relied on me to to take care and watch over their dogs, whether it be playing with them, cooking for them, taking care of bath time, walks, or simply just someone to watch over them so they won't be alone. I care for my dogs like they are my own family, and I only would want to treat your precious furry friends and members of the family the same way. Im currently in between work, so im using this as a way to keep money coming in. My schedule is open 7 days week and I have a personal vehicle of my own. So if needed I can run errands and pick up any supplies your pets may need, and in case of emergency, you can count on me to bring your pet to a qualified veterinarian. Simply get with me to make the time frames you would want or need for the day of your choice. Am open to pet sitting for more than one day if needed so. And if your not comfortable with a sitter staying in your own home, im a perfectly capable to make constant check ups on your pets through the days your gone My dog is a rowdy and territorial Yorkie. But I love him all the same. A very playful dog who would bring you his toy for when he wanted playtime. My dog gets to have all the playtime he can have and enjoy long walks, while exploring new neighborhoods to mark. I give him foods he would need, along with his dry food that he has access to anytime of the day and I give him treats that are good for building up jaw strength and cleaning his teeth. While keeping his fur, and nails in check as well, once every two weeks. To ensure no grass or stickers get stuck in his hair during his walks. Overall my Yorkie, has loyalty and love for me, as I do for him. I take care of and pet sit my uncles dogs, one is a retriever border collie mix, and the other is a husky. Both dogs are females and have two completely different personalities, one has energy to play at all times of the day, while the other likes to have attention and belly rubs. I've taken care of these dogs ever since they were pups, and they have impressed on me and always love when I visit them. My uncle trust me to watch over his dogs even when gone for weeks at a time.
About: I’ve had cats and dogs for most of my life and caring for animals is something I truly love. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I have experience caring for senior pets and those with special needs, including administering medications, supporting mobility challenges, and providing a calm, patient environment. I know how important consistency and gentle care are, especially for pets who need a little extra attention. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or quiet companionship, I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they’re happy, healthy, and loved every step of the way. I currently have cats of my own but they are used to other pets in the home, including dogs. Additionally, I offer complimentary meet and greets prior to petting your pet, to see if it’s a good fit. I work from home and my schedule is flexible, so I’m able to interact with and love on your fur baby all day. I can also pick up and drop off your little one if need be. I do have a few cats of my own, so if you have a kitty needing care, it may be best for me to care for them in their own environment. My cats are used to other pets though, including dogs, so they are more than welcome in my home. I also have a fenced-in yard with a lot of room for your dog to run around and live in a neighborhood conducive to walks.
About: I want to be involved in dog walking and pet sitting because I have loved dogs my whole life. I grew up with a dog from the time I was five years old, and that dog became my best friend. Being around dogs makes me happy, calm, and full of joy. Because of that, I would love to help take care of other people’s dogs too. I understand that owning a pet can sometimes be stressful and time-consuming, and I want to be someone others can trust to give their dogs love, attention, and care when they need extra help. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I am currently in college and have gaps between my classes with a lot of free time. Instead of wasting that time, I wanted to use it to do something I truly enjoy. Dog walking and pet sitting are a great fit for my schedule because they are flexible and easy to plan around my classes. I also come home often during the holidays, which gives me even more availability during those times. This makes me reliable and consistent when families need extra help with their pets. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I always follow the owner’s instructions to make sure their pet feels safe and comfortable. I make sure they are fed on time, have fresh water, and get plenty of attention and exercise. I take dogs on walks, play with them, clean up after them, and make sure they feel loved while their owner is away. I also keep their space clean and watch for any changes in behavior or health. My goal is to treat every pet with the same care and respect as my own.
About: I've been a dog owner for the majority of my life and now I am a parrot owner to my boy Sweet Pea. I am currently a student and a flight instructor so I am looking to earn some money in this transitional period of my life. For home sitting I will require going back to my own home for a couple of hours a day to care for my own bird but besides that I have good availability for the days I can work. My experience is the amount of time I've cared for my friend's dogs and cats but I have a lifetime of experience with dogs. I am currently a student, a flight instructor, and a bird owner, so my schedule depends on whether or not I am at the airport. When I'm needed at the airport I will only be available in the mornings or overnight, but on days where I'm off I will be available all day besides a couple of hours where I'll need to go home and give some care to my own bird. I am careful to follow any rules or preferences of clients to make sure their homes are respected and the animals get the care they need while I'm there.
“Diana was prompt, friendly, and got along well with our elderly and grouchy dog. He loved walking with her. Our dog has passed on, but if we get another dog, I would love to have Diana walk him.”
About: I am a nature lover! I enjoy taking my dogs, Rosemary & Kuzca, on exciting hikes and engaging adventures. We love visiting the river, the dog park, hitting nature trails around town, and quality play time at home. I also love cuddling up with my cat, Bee, when she will let me! I have always loved animals and wanted animal companions since I was a child. From dogs & cats to birds to snakes, the list of animals I’ve had under my care goes on. One thing that sets me apart is my desire to provide exquisite care for my furry/scaly/feathered friends. Every animal deserves to live a high quality life and it brings me so much joy to provide them with that. I continuously grow as a pet parent. I’m always researching new ways to improve my care techniques by staying up to date on things like nutrition, stimulation, and training. I work from home and decide my own schedule so I have a lot of flexibility in how I want to shape my day. This makes it so convenient for taking care of fur babies! We have a fenced yard that is perfect for a short zoomie sesh. Plus we have a gated dog park in our community that we frequent. I always try and incorporate as much outside time as possible.
About: I’ve grown up around pets and absolutely love being around animals. I’m not new to professional pet sitting, I’ve helped care for friends’ and family’s dogs over the years. I’m patient, observant, and attentive—whether it’s walks, playtime, I’m here to make your pet feel secure and loved. Right now, my schedule is super flexible, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pet. I can do early mornings, evenings, or even pop-ins throughout the day—whatever works best for your routine. I do in-home care, so your pet stays comfortable in their own space. I’ll follow whatever instructions you leave and make sure your pet’s routine stays consistent. I always keep things clean, stay in touch, and make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved the whole time you’re away.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my whole life, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. For the past three to four years, I have consistently house-sat and pet-sat for family friends with multiple dogs and cats at once, helping with feeding, walks, playtime, overnight care, medications when needed, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I also have a Doberman of my own, so I’m very experienced with high-energy dogs and understand how to stay patient and calm with reactive behaviors. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m very flexible this summer since I’m home from college, which allows me to dedicate a lot of time and attention to pet care. I’m able to work around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication needs, drop-in visits, and overnight stays if needed. Because caring for animals has always been part of my daily life, fitting pet care into my routine comes very naturally to me. I always make sure pets are cared for in a safe, calm, and loving environment, whether in my home or a client’s home. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, litter boxes, medications, and any special instructions provided by owners. Because I have experience with energetic and reactive dogs, I understand the importance of patience, structure, and supervision. I also make sure clients’ homes stay clean, secure, and respected during house-sitting visits.
About: !! New to Rover !! Feel free to ask me any questions or concerns you may have that I didn’t mention in my profile. I’ve grown up with dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, but it became my responsibility to clean the litter box and scoop poop from the yard in 3rd grade. Aside from dogs and cats, I’ve been around all different animals, including riding horses and taking care of them at one point. I currently have a 10 month golden retriever and 2 cats that are 5 yo. I recently just graduated from Texas State with a Biology degree and am working to save up for graduate school. Currently, I’m able to complete the majority of my work from home, which allows for me to take on pets that may require a bit more attention. I have a large space to play in with lots of toys and my apartment backs up to the purgatory creek trails. Also, my sister has a 5 acre property that’s fenced in, which I regularly take my pup to run around off leash. I’m familiar with dog friendly places in the area and an advocate for training sessions in public to socialize them. I have a large dog kennel, small kennel, cat carrier, litter box, and perhaps anything else your pet might need.
About: I have been a pet sitter since my senior year of high school! I have watched puppies all the way to elderly dogs! My goal with your fur babies is to provide them with the same level of love and comfort as if you were home. I have worked with dogs that are kennel trained or even those that are roamers. When I am booked I typically have stayed overnights that way the dogs have immediate access to in and out! Let me help you! I am currently a graduate student at TXST so my schedule can be pretty open! My current schedule is Monday-Thursday 9AM-2PM. Friday through Sunday is usually reserved for pet sittings. I do leave occasionally during bookings to check on my own cats or run errands. Other than that I am super flexible! I always meet before hand to lay out your expectations and my expectations. From there I ask what you want me to do. Sometimes I will help clean while you’re gone, or make sure the pets diet is followed, but ultimately I want to provide you with the best care!

“My fiancé and I had to leave for a few days to Houston for her niece’s baptism. Lisa watched our dog, Scout, for us and she did an amazing job. Her dog and Scout got along very well. She has a nice/big backyard that he was able to play in! She made sure to send us updates/photos everyday while we were away, which was so thoughtful and made us feel good knowing he was in good hands. We will definitely be calling Lisa again for sitting!”

About: Hi! I’m a college student with a flexible schedule and a genuine love for animals. I’ve grown up around pets and understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for them. I’m reliable, attentive, and make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m great with routines and can follow any specific instructions you have—because I know every pet is different. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel at ease while you’re gone. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and boarding, with time built in for play, feeding, and companionship. I do my best to stick to your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment without a yard, but I make sure pets get plenty of outdoor time through regular walks and supervised potty breaks. Safety is my top priority—I always keep dogs on a leash outside and stay aware of our surroundings. Inside, pets have a calm, secure space to relax, and I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, medications, and any special needs. I’m committed to creating a safe, comfortable environment where your pet feels at home.
“Angela was amazing with my 14 years old dog. She provided several pictures and regular updates that gave me comfort. I am very appreciative of her level of care provided.”
“Sahara is very communicative and we know our pup is in good hands with her family. We have used them a few times now and will continue to let our pup stay with this family!”
“Angie took care of our dog like a member of her own family. We got lots of pictures during the stay. Great communication throughout the boarding and we would love to have Baxter stay with them again.”
“Stephen and his family took great care of our dog Osito. We received frequent pictures and updates on how he was doing. Osito came home to us happy like we hadn’t left. Thank you Stephen and fam!”
About: I have dogs since I was 4 years old. Trained them to listen to commands in sign language. My longest lived dog was 17 years old. I’m at stay at home mom with 5 kids. I have the whole time in the world for the extra babies, fur babies and hairless! I have fenced yard. I know how to groom them as well. Clip their nails. Not believe in caging. If the dogs don’t get along I will let a dog outside for a hr then switch them with large bowl of water, of course! And keep them in different room.
“Absolutely fantastic! Amanda sent me photos throughout the stay and it seemed she was able to get Hope to pose which she does not do for me. Hope looked so happy playing with the other doggies while I was away. Amanda was a very good communicator and understood when we drove home from Colorado. I will definitely book her again!”
“Jade is so sweet! She had our 4 month old puppy for 4 nights and was very communicative and helpful throughout the whole process. My dog loved playing with her dog Hiccup and they did lots of fun activities together. Will be booking again!”
“My dog Tillie loves Jeff! She has stayed for doggie daycare multiple times & also for overnights when we went on a trip! Jeff is very easy going & accommodating & loves animals! He also helped us w/ picking up & dropping off Tillie when we were in a bind! We love knowing Tillie is in safe hands w/ Jeff!”
“Amber took very good care of our dog Prince during an overnight stay in her home. She kept us updated on how he was doing through texts and pics. She is very prompt when responding to messages which I really appreciate. Prince was kept entertained and active playing with her puppy, so much so that once he got home he knocked out. Amber and her family were super friendly. I will definitely rebook with Amber in the future.”
