“Amanda was great with lavender. She sent lots of pictures of lavender looking very comfortable in her house. She was also great at staying in contact and being flexible about drop off and pick up times. Highly recommend! I’ve already rebooked with her.”

“Did a meet and greet. My wife and I felt uneasy about leaving our boy Luca. After meeting with Erica, we went ahead to a book doggy daycare. Erica and Oreo put our family a little less stressed about the situation.”

“She was the best sitter we’ve ever had. She kept in contact with us everyday and updated the entire time we were gone. I will defiantly recommend her and will continue to request her to be our sitter. Best ever!”

“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! She took care of Luka as if he were her own. I felt very comfortable the whole time, she sent lots of photos and kept me updated about everything with him. She spoiled him a lot, and when I went to pick him up, he was even playing outside with her! I would definitely trust her with Luka again without hesitation”

“I am so happy to have found Rubi through Rover to care for Poppy. I had peace of mind during my travels as she communicated with me via text and video about his care and well being. I would definitely reach out again for this service.”

“April is very easy to work with and was able to watch after Blazer even on short notice. Blazer and Polly (April’s dog) get along very well. They get along so well that when I picked up Blazer from April he cried for almost 30 min wanting to go back. It is very clear she takes great care of my boy! Would recommend to anyone!”

“Bruna was able to accommodate my request last minute. She lives very close by to me and that was a plus! My pups were well cared for! Bruna communicated well and sent me pics of how the pups were doing. My pups were comfortable in her home and were able to prance around freely. She was also able to accommodate giving my older pup his meds. I recommend Bruna to watch your pups and I will seek out her help again when the need arises! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”


“Will always use Bianca to sit my fur babies when I need to leave town. They’re so excited to arrive at her place, you just know they have a great time. She also does a good job sticking to their rules and routine which means the world to us.”

“Yasmim was so great! She communicated me with me so well and quickly and sent me multiple updates on how my baby was doing. She even sent her home with a little goodie bag 💓 Would definitely recommend!”

“Martie is great! This was our first experience using Rover to find boarding for our pup and we are so glad we found Martie. After our meet and greet I wasn't feeling nervous about leaving our pup in her care, and we got daily pictures of him hanging out and socializing with other dogs.

About: I have a passion for all animals. I am an educator by profession for over 22 years and have cared and owned pets all my life ( dogs ,cats, pigs, cows and horses).

About: I have a dog of my own and previously had a cat, so I’m very comfortable caring for both. I’ve also trained my dog to do basic tricks like sit, stay, and shake, which shows my patience and consistency. Taking care of my own pets has taught me to be responsible, attentive, and to always make sure they feel safe and cared for. I’m a senior in high school, so I’m available on weekdays after 4-5 PM and most weekends. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I have time to give pets attention, walks, and playtime. Here you go with that added in: Safety, trust & environment I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I have a fenced backyard where dogs can play safely, and I always supervise them. I follow instructions carefully, make sure they are fed on time, get exercise, and feel secure. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel calm and cared for.
About: I have had multiple pets since I was about 10 years old! I used to train and ride ponies and horses, but now I just focus on my dog, Miel. I took her in as a puppy and trained her during COVID. I have also previously taken care of weeks old puppies that required to be bottle fed multiple times a day and throughout the night. I am currently working full time and volunteering at a clinic after work (M/T/TH). I am available after work on Wednesdays, Fridays, and the weekends. I am also available during lunch (flexible hours) on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. I am also available for holidays! To ensure safety I approach pets slowly and give them a chance to come up to me first. I am also aware that some pets can have food restrictions so I would ask before providing or exposing them to any treats, toys, other personal items.
“Rubi is very kind and respectful. She is very good with my 2 pups and they really enjoy her. She takes her responsibilities seriously and sends plenty of pictures. I highly recommend her. I have already rebooked her😀”


“Juli is an excellent dog-sitter. My three dogs loved her. I was away for 14 days, so I was understandably anxious about leaving them alone. However, once I met Juli and went over the feeding instructions, I knew my dogs would be in good hands. Everything went smoothly, and I got daily updates (including pics and videos) on the dog's status. I especially appreciate the extra effort she put into making sure the floors were tidy, and that the mail was brought in. She even offered to water some of my plants that were looking a little droopy. I will definitely call on her again in the future.”


About: I have years of experience caring for cats of all ages and temperaments, from playful kittens to senior cats who need extra patience and gentle care. I understand that cats thrive on routine and a calm environment, so I take the time to earn their trust and follow their normal schedule closely. I’m comfortable with feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, administering basic care, and providing companionship while respecting each cat’s personality and boundaries. My goal is to keep your cat comfortable, stress-free, and happy while you’re away.
About: Hi! I am a veterinary assistant with a love for animal care both in and out of the clinic. I am passionate about helping animals live happy, healthy lives. Outside of work, I enjoy staying active and spending time with furry companions.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Val Verde
Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: Hello! I take dog sitting seriously and safety is my number one priority. Your dog will always have someone around to give it lots of attention and affection. I do everything I can to to meet the needs of your dog to assure they are safe, comfortable, and having fun. I live alone and have a pretty big house where the puppers or kitties won’t get bored, I have a fenced back yard where they can go to town! Besides that I am just a very patient individual who loves animals. I work from home so I have a very flexible schedule. I make my own schedule in accordance to what is best for my service. IMPORTANT INFORMATION: HOUSE SITTING: I would just like to clarify the services that I am to provide to you (according to ROVER guidelines) when I’m HOUSE SITTING. A lot of people get a bit confused regarding the actual service we are to provide because rover does not do a very good job defining each service. House sitting is essentially OVER NIGHT sitting, a sitter comes and stays over night to watch over your pup/pups/pet and leaves in the morning. I usually take an over night sitting as an 8hr shift, so if I come at 10PM, I leave at 6-7AM. Unfortunately, house sitting is not a service where the sitter stays at your home over night and comes to check on your pet several times a day, those would be “drop-in visits” and you would need to book those :). I understand it could get expensive, so In cases where the client lives really close to me, I am willing to work with you, just contact me :). I usually take care of pets the same way I do with my family dog. With kindness patience and attentiveness. Snacks as well, unless instructed other wise.
“Sandra is amazing!. She would keep us updated by sending us photos and videos of our Lola throughout the day which kept us at ease. Monkey is the sweetest and loved how great they got along.”

“April was amazing with Leo! I had a last minute out of town trip coming up and nobody to watch him. I was very hesitant to use this app and super worried about leaving him with a stranger but he absolutely loved her and she sent multiple pictures a day providing updates! I would highly recommend her!”


“Katherine was AMAZING! She treated Ellis with such care. I loved her constant updates, pictures, and especially how much she expressed how much she was enjoying her time with Ellis. I loved that this wasn't a chore for her but rather a fun filled day! I would definitely recommend her and will definitely be seeing her again soon!”

About: No grooming just genuine attention, comfort, and care. Space where dogs are treated like family, I can play with them and treat them with affection so that they feel comfortable. Right now I only work part-time and I have the time to take care and play with your dogs. available almost all the time for them I have a house with a large fenced space for your dogs to play and I have 2 dogs for your babies to play with.

“Melissa was kindly available for a last minute doggy daycare for my two dachshunds. She gave me updates on my dogs while I was at work, which i appreciate greatly. Thank you for the great dog sitting”

“First time using Rover. Glad we reached out to Evan after reading a couple of his reviews. Dusty had a blast and was tired from all the playing when we picked him up! We will definitely ask Evan to sit again in the future! We appreciated the constant check-ins/updates, which took away the stress of leaving a pet behind.”

About: As a devoted pet owner, my journey with my Pomeranian, Bibi , has been incredibly rewarding. At 12 years old, she has become not just a pet but a cherished member of my family. Caring for Bibi has taught me the importance of patience, love, and responsibility. As she ages, I’m committed to providing the best care possible, ensuring her golden years are filled with comfort, joy, and plenty of love. I wouldn’t trade this experience for anything in the world! I am a lead manager at a pet store and I have a 12 year old senior Pomeranian with a heart condition which she has a medicine schedule for. I enjoy taking care of animals and dedicating my free time with them as well. Luckily we have a walled and gated property where no one can look inside or look outside, our property has plenty of free space for animals to roam around and sun bathe as well as a big car port for extra shade for our pets, it is free of any debris and any danger that can harm our pets.
“Bruna was the best sitter we’ve ever had and she kept in contact frequently with updates. She took care of my Yoshi like it was her own and my buddy knew it too. He was well taken care of, I will book again with her.”

About: I have experience with dogs and cats new born to senior. I have taking care of animals for over 5 years and enjoy every second of it!

“Thank you for taking care of Bear. He was not so full of energy when he got home so he must have been having fun to wear him out. Was last minute and appreciate the flexibility. Didn’t want to leave him in his kennel all day while I was in the hospital with hubby who had surgery. Will definitely keep you in mind if need another day”

“This was Kiara’s first time staying for a daycare with Victoria, and everything went smoothly. Victoria has a very nice and calming personality, and Kiara had a great time today. We will definitely book with her again.”

“Rick is very sincere & caring ! He is very easy to communicate with. Rick responds in a very timely manner. Our 13 lb Dachshund was ok being with his two dogs. We had a Welcome/Orientation visit to see if the dogs would get along. Daisy also was ok with the other Rover dogs that Rick had at his home when Daisy was there for her once a week stay. We felt very comfortable leaving Daisy with Rick. Rick is very pleasant, easy to communicate with, and we found him to be very caring and sincere!!”

About: hi! wonderful to meet :) my name is Samantha! i was practically born and raised an animal lover hah! i love pets and animals of all sizes, ages, and breeds! though i am new to Rover, i am highly experienced as a pet sitter, dog walker, pet companion, etc. service is my natural habitat, so, any special requests are easily accommodated by me. feel free to reach out to me about your pet service requests and see if we are a great match! love & light -Samantha i have a very flexible schedule for pet sitting, pet walking, pet care of all kinds. i welcome drop-in visits, and pets are welcome to stay as long as they are comfortable and well mannered. i can schedule last minute commitments, along with commitments in advance. in my home, my preference is for the pet care to mimic whatever the pet(s) are used to at home. the owner is the parent and they set the tone, i like to follow suit and be sure to keep the pets in their usual routines as much as we can.
“Martie is great! This was our first experience using Rover to find boarding for our pup and we are so glad we found Martie. After our meet and greet I wasn't feeling nervous about leaving our pup in her care, and we got daily pictures of him hanging out and socializing with other dogs. We will definitely be booking again for our next trip! Thanks Martie!”

“Yolanda was great!! I really appreciated her taking my boy in last minute. The sitter I had originally booked didn’t answer my calls or messages the morning of drop off. So I reached out to Yolanda and I was able to drop off my pup within the hour. She was really a life saver.”

“Jessica is the real deal. Out of three Rover bookings, she's easily the best sitter I've had. Setting up drop off and pick up couldn't have been simpler, and she and her husband welcomed my dog like one of their own. She sent photo updates the whole time, so I never had to wonder how my pup was doing. Honestly, it was the best boarding experience we've had. If I'm ever back in the area, I'm booking with her again without a second thought.”

“My wife and I were incredibly worried about leaving our corgi in the hands of another person, however, Alina made us feel extremely safe and provided us with everything we needed to not worry about our pup. She updated us with multiple pictures throughout the day and let us know how he was doing each day we were gone. It was the best experience we could have asked for and I know I will be choosing Alina again when we need another dog sitter.”

“Shelby was a wonderful host to our doggy Lady! She was very communicative and would send us updates on how lady was doing while we were gone. We will definitely be rebooking with Shelby in the future thank you so much.!”


About: I’ve had pets my whole life and love caring for them like they’re my babies. I also help watch my family and friends' pets when they’re out of town, so I’m used to giving animals lots of love and attention. You can trust that your pet will be safe, happy, and treated like family with me. I’m attending the university of the rio grande valley. However, I only attend on certain days and right now it’s summer so i’m free. I will make time. I will do my best to clean any mess the pets make and I am reliable to give them food and water and take on walks daily.
“A well earned 5 stars! Colleen took such time and attention with our Lilo that went way above our expectations. Thank you for being so gracious and tending to her needs so well. We will definitely book again in the future!”
“Caleb & Kim were GREAT! Their set up was perfect for our dogs who aren’t used to being on a leash. Their backyard is huge and gave ample room for play and exercise for our Australian shepherd and our little Shih Tsu fit right in as well. They got along so well with Levi and Roy, Caleb & Kim’s dogs! We were updated daily with pictures. We were able to enjoy our time away, knowing our dogs were in such good hands. Thank you so much Caleb & Kim!”

“Stephanie was great with our girl Zara. Sent daily updates and pics, was very communicative! Took her on walks, gave her toys to play with, and treats :) Thanks Stephanie!!”

“Evan was awesome! Definitely would recommend him to anyone. Kept me informed on any updates and was willing to answer any questions and take advice on your pets behaviors..Overall great experience!”

“Rick is an outstanding pet sitter who looked after our lively puppy, Paco. His exceptional communication skills put us at ease even before we left Paco in his capable hands. Throughout Paco’s stay, Rick kept us informed with regular updates and adorable videos, making us feel connected to our furry baby. Paco had a blast playing with other dogs under Rick’s watchful eye, and we knew he was in safe hands. Rick’s attention to detail, love for animals, and willingness to go the extra mile exceeded our expectations.”

About: What sets me apart is the space and care I provide. I live on 2.5 acres, giving dogs plenty of room to safely explore, play, and burn off energy. As both a lifelong dog and horse lover, I’m comfortable caring for animals of all sizes and personalities. I understand that every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their routine, energy level, and preferences to help them feel at home. I treat every dog like they’re part of the family, providing lots of attention, playtime, and affection while keeping owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. Whether your dog loves to run, relax, or just wants extra cuddles, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care in a safe, country setting. Pet care fits naturally into my daily schedule because I’m a stay-at-home mom to my toddler. Being home throughout the day allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, regular exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. Your pet won’t be left alone for long periods and will receive lots of love and supervision in a calm, family-oriented environment. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, and I love incorporating them into our daily routine! In my home, pets have plenty of room to play and explore on our property while always being supervised. I provide a clean, alm environment with lots of attention, playtime, and affction so they feel like part of the family. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both the home and the pet’s routine. I make sure your pet gets the care, exercise, and companionship they’re used to while keeping your home clean and secure. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
