“I could tell my dog had a good time because he didn’t want to leave! Normally he can’t wait to get back home when he’s been away! Thank you, Shaylonn & Richard!”

“Saphire was GREAT! I forgot about booking my normal kennel for winter break, and ended up looking to Rover to find a place for my dog, Callie. I was a little worried about leaving Callie at another person's house; while she is housetrained, she has shredded all the dog beds I've gotten her in the past, and still gets into trash. She can also be aggressive with protecting her food, and become very defensive when around certain dogs. After reading a positive review of a similar dog, I contacted Saphire and she assured me that my dog was in good hands. Throughout the trip, I got picture updates from Saphire as well as a DVD of all the pictures and videos from Callie's stay there. Callie had a BLAST playing with Saphire's own dogs as well as the other dogs being boarded and fostered, with lots of outdoor playtime, and she was completely worn out when I picked her up. Saphire even managed to get a bath in before I picked Callie up, even though she hates baths! I would highly recommend Saphire, and definitely plan to contact her again next time I'm traveling!”


“Karen is a wonderful choice for our two pits. She and her family are loving and caring. She kept our pups for a week and kept us informed, with pictures. When our girl started getting an eye infection, Karen immediately notified us and followed up as we requested. We are thoroughly satisfied and very happy, and we trust Karen to care for our fur babies.”

“Emily did an outstanding job with Ransas. I'd pick her anytime to take care of my baby. She's a very kind person and took such good care of my dog that I thought I might not get him back.”

“Melanie is our go to gal for watching our fur babies! Not only is she professional, thorough, and sweet - she is also personable. Even though Rover notifies you when your sitter has arrived, Melanie sends her own personal message informing you she’s on-site. She also sends pictures/videos of your pets along with verbal updates. She likes to do a meet and greet before your actually booking which is nice. This is when you give her your notes/request/suggestions and overall routine of your pets. She immediately won over my pets and embraced their chaos - She is also armed and loaded with bite sized treats. Melanie is trustworthy and truly loves animals. Do yourself a favor and use her - we’re already booking her again!”

“Molly took very good care of our two cats. Thanks to her maintaining their litter box my house smelled nice and clean when we got home! She is a sweet young woman and very reliable and responsible. I was a little nervous about a stranger having access to my house but I realized quickly she was trustworthy. She communicates well and sent reports and photos of my cats which put my mind at ease. I will definitely use Molly again when I need a sitter.”

“Sindy was great. Very attentive to what I wanted for my dog (times, meds, food, walking, making sure he was warm/cool, etc) and showed up like clockwork. She spent plenty of time with him, loved on him and sent me daily pictures. Will definitely be using Sindy again.”

“Emily did a wonderful job checking in on our 2 feral cats. She keep the cats happy and gave me total peace of mind that they were well cared for. We will most certainly use Emily again in the future. Thanks”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and all kinds of animals since my childhood. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, reptiles, horses and livestock. I’m happy help take care of your fur, feather, or scale baby when needed. I’ve had a long career in healthcare and am now entering retirement. I’m excited to have a fun adventure taking care of your pets! I am available at most anytime. I have 1 corgi of my own - His name is Filius. I have a fully fenced yard at home. I have only one pet - my corgi Filius. My pets have always been inside pets. They get two meals a day and probably a few too many snacks for their own good. 🙃
About: I come from a major animal loving family & have been surrounded by many different types of animals as far back as I can remember! I'm surprised it took me so long to make it into a profession, but I've been caring for other peoples' pets & homes for about 10 years now. My schedule is currently very flexible & I am often open to travel a ways from home for longer sits. I have my own cat, Frank, who is fairly aloof & quite understanding when I come home smelling like other animals. 😹 My current home is not suitable for having extra pets in it, so getting to sit in YOUR home is great for all parties involved - I get my cute animal fix, you get peace of mind that your pets & home are safe & well looked after, & your pets don't have too much disruption to their daily routine so they're less stressed while you're away!
“Once again, Baleigh was the best. This time my cats recognized her and appreciated the attention while I was away. She went above and beyond for me, and I will continue to ask her to petsit when I am away.”

“Megan did a wonderful job caring for Barbi. I could not ask for a better experience with a sitter. I Will definitely use Rover again and hopefully Megan will be available.”

About: I have both large and small animal Vet Tech experience working for multiple veterinarians. I have worked at Texas Equine with horses in Brenham, TX as well as multiple small animal vets and shelters. I currently work from home so I am always available to spend time with and care for any animals including my own. I have a huge backyard that I love spending time in over the weekends with my animals. Plenty of room to run around. I feel spending time with animals and using positive reinforcement when training is Beneficial. Building trust is also a huge factor in animal behavior, so more time with them will give them a better understanding of how we behave and what actions we would like them to take.
About: I was raised in a household of pets all 29 years of my life. I'm the one that gets a call when friends or family need help with their pet and now decided to go on the professional route.

We do live in an owned condominium with a fenced in court just walking distance from my home.
About: Whenever I was in highschool I spent the whole school year at the vets office for a class. I have always loved all animals, and made sure that they were always safe and well cared for.

I’m starting college in fall so this money would go towards that. I have a fenced yard, no dogs, but I do have inside cats. When I did have a dog I treated her like a baby and I would do the same for yours.
About: Hi there, I have always had an animal growing up and therefore have always loved caring for them! Ever since I was little I have said I get along with animals more than I do humans! I would love to help assist in caring for your fur baby while you’re away. I also want to mention that I have a fur baby of my own named Teddy Winston.

My life is very busy between being a new mom and taking care of my family. Please reach out and I will talk with you regarding my schedule.

About: I used to work as a Vet Tech for 3 years. Up until a few years ago I have always had an indoor dog and/or cat. When our fur baby Milly (Pit/ Staffy) passed and we found we enjoy entertaining a variety of breeds. Since then we have got another pit baby Ollie. He has grown up with a new pup in the house almost daily. He loves friends! He is very well socialized and loves everyone! We would love to share all our love with your Fur baby. My kids love when the fur babies want in bed with them. I have a nice sized fenced in back yard, and different sized kennels, including an extra large kennel. Also an exterior 10x 10 covered kennel outside. We love bringing your sweet baby in to our home to get some loving from all of us. I have 4 kids 20, 18, 13, 8. They all love animals and know how to treat fur babies. We have 5 cats, Shadow, Toofless, Athena, Mustashio, & Corbin. We are in a nice neighborhood and can take daily walks if that is what your pup enjoys. We play fetch in the back yard all the time. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! Thank you for considering us! I am a stay at home mom and homeschool all my kids. We are a big part of our church CTC:Church That Cares Tarkington and are in attendance every time the doors are open. I am the Tech team leader and my husband plays the bass. My 2 oldest daughters run our coffee shop & sing as well. We like to walk on a leash, even in the fenced in yard, to make sure you are comfortable. Please let us know if you would prefer them to free roam in the yard with supervision.
About: Hello! My experience comes from being the proud owner of an energetic and loving water dog named Capri. We loved hiking and spending time at the dog park. That gave me experience interacting with most all breeds and temperaments. Then of course there have been numerous family and friends dogs which I had the pleasure of watching full-time. There was even one over 100 pounds, simply cuddly and lazy! Owning a dog has given me opportunities I would have otherwise not had. The people we've met over the years have been amazing. I understand that our dogs are like family, and they will be treated as such here. Take a look around my profile and message me with any questions. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your fur babies! Currently my schedule is wide open for pet sitting and the majority of my time is spent at home. Bookings are accepted 7 days a week. I have a large yard, with a small portion fenced in, and pet gates are utilized inside. I look forward to hearing from you with any questions or concerns and would love to set up and meet and greet!

I won't crate yours unless you want me to. I will want to know your dog's routine, feeding schedule, personality, sleeping habits, etc., so I can best meet his or her needs. We have two dogs. Both are about year and a half old and once properly introduced, are friendly with other dogs.
“Cooper and Tina had a great time with Jessica! She has a big covered patio for shade and a nice fenced in yard for the dogs to roam around and explore. It was our first time using Rover and Jessica definitely made it worthwhile.”

“I visited Houston from Austin for a day trip on short notice, and Saphire responded so quickly and was flexible with drop off and pick up times! There were plenty of dogs for my pup to play with and crates for when Harper needed space to eat. Her tail was wagging when we got there, when we left, and she slept the entire ride home :)”

“Erin was wonderful! She took great care of my puppy, Dash and he had a great time with her and Theo! Dash was super excited to see Erin when I dropped him off and she provided updates throughout the day. Can’t recommend enough!”

“Brittany was very accommodating and did great with walking my dog! She even went out of her way to help me with different things that I needed. I would definitely reccommend her (:”

About: ‼️ Beginning January 1st, 2023 I will no longer be providing services through Rover‼️I will still be providing services, I will just be freelance, Rover keeps 20% of money earned and I understand their reasons but that's often a large chunk of money even though I've never needed the extra services these funds cover, however I'm just not comfortable raising my prices. I worked as a kennel technician in a veterinary clinic for 1 year before taking time away from work to be with my daughter. I have cared for pets inside my home since I was a child and have two dogs and three cats of my own. I have cared for pets as small as 3 lb all the way into the 200s and hold no breed biases. I'm currently a part-time online student at Lone Star college so my availability is wide open I will try my best to stick to your pets current schedule as much as possible to make their time away from you as easy on them as it can be. During my time at the clinic I became very familiar with harnessing, leashing, and collaring rambunctious dogs as well as coaxing reluctant animals into their kennels I use a fear free approach (lots of treats and toys!) and do not condone dragging pulling or pushing pets unless it is the safest course of action in an emergency situation. I am also experienced in giving medications and monitoring pets for signs of distress or illness.

About: I grew up around animals my entire life and I’ve watched over family friends and friends animals as well. I absolutely love animals and now I personally have 4 dogs. Whether they’re high energy or a couch potato every animal deserves to be loved and their boundaries respected! My work as an EMT only has me working 2 days out of the week so I’ve got a good bit of free time! Being able to work around those 2 days is really easy. On my off days I’d be able to check on your animals 2-3 times a day! I love walking as well, it clears my mind, so the more walks your dogs need the better for us both! While I don’t offer to take any pets into my own home due to my own pets, I am willing to come see your fur babies. I was raised to always respect someone’s home and privacy. Your animals will be well taken care of at all times in my presence with respect to your rules and guidelines.

“Megan is an absolute lifesaver! My two Pomskies, Joey and Chandler, can be a handful, but Megan handles them with such care and professionalism.

I highly recommend Megan to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog walker!”

About: Overall, I combine passion for pets with professional care to create an exceptional experience for both dogs and their owners. It’s an Adventure for everyone Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine, seamlessly woven into my activities. Each day begins with morning walks, ensuring that the dogs get fresh air and exercise to start their day off right. After their walks, I dedicate time to feeding, grooming, and providing any necessary medications, tailoring the care to each pet's specific needs. Throughout the day, I prioritize playtime and mental stimulation through interactive games and training sessions. This not only keeps them entertained but also strengthens the bond we share. I incorporate regular check-ins to monitor their health and behavior, making adjustments as needed. Weekly, I schedule longer outings or adventures, such as trips to the dog park or nature walks, allowing for socialization and exploration. I also set aside time for grooming sessions, ensuring that all pets remain clean and comfortable. Overall, pet care is not just a task but a joyful routine that brings fulfillment and structure to my days, ensuring each pet receives the love and attention they deserve. When caring for pets in my home, I create a welcoming and safe environment equipped with plenty of space for play, comfortable sleeping areas, and access to outdoor areas for exercise. This setup is ideal for pets that thrive in a home-like setting and allows for close supervision and personalized attention. Ultimately, I adapt my services to meet the needs of each pet and their owner, ensuring the best possible experience for both.

“Saphire was GREAT! I forgot about booking my normal kennel for winter break, and ended up looking to Rover to find a place for my dog, Callie. I was a little worried about leaving Callie at another person's house; while she is housetrained, she has shredded all the dog beds I've gotten her in the past, and still gets into trash. She can also be aggressive with protecting her food, and become very defensive when around certain dogs. After reading a positive review of a similar dog, I contacted Saphire and she assured me that my dog was in good hands. Throughout the trip, I got picture updates from Saphire as well as a DVD of all the pictures and videos from Callie's stay there. Callie had a BLAST playing with Saphire's own dogs as well as the other dogs being boarded and fostered, with lots of outdoor playtime, and she was completely worn out when I picked her up. Saphire even managed to get a bath in before I picked Callie up, even though she hates baths! I would highly recommend Saphire, and definitely plan to contact her again next time I'm traveling!”


“Karen is a wonderful choice for our two pits. She and her family are loving and caring. She kept our pups for a week and kept us informed, with pictures. When our girl started getting an eye infection, Karen immediately notified us and followed up as we requested. We are thoroughly satisfied and very happy, and we trust Karen to care for our fur babies.”

“Emily did an outstanding job with Ransas. I'd pick her anytime to take care of my baby. She's a very kind person and took such good care of my dog that I thought I might not get him back.”
