“Heather took great care of our dog while we were out of town. She gave us updates with pictures everyday, which put us at ease knowing that our dog was in good hands. We will definitely use Heather next time we need to travel.”
“Excellent dog sitter! Belinda was very accommodating with our schedule. she kept us updated with pictures daily. She took very good care of our dog Brody. We are repeat customers and will be booking again soon!.”
“Megan went above and beyond to make sure our dog was taken care of. Took her to the park and on multiple walks a day. She welcomed our dog into her home with open arms and spoiled her everyday. Can’t recommend Megan enough. 10/10!!!”
“Karimar was great! The updates she sent daily, I could tell my pup was comfortable and in good company. No complaints at all. And in case I need it again, I hope to be able to book with her. Thanks so much!”
“Cindy and her family are so amazing! I was updated multiple times a day! My dog looked extremely happy in every photo Cindy sent to me! I felt she went above and beyond to make my sweet girl💕 comfortable! Would definitely recommend using Cindy as your dog sitter!”
“Booked sort of last minute but Delelah allowed my dogs to come over for a meet and greet with her dogs a few days before their stay so they could get comfortable, which I really appreciated! She also kept me updated and my dogs came home happy and tired from playing so hard.”
“Danielle was awesome with scheduling a last minute stay. She took care of Apollo and shared photos of his visit. Apollo is is older, and she provided that extra care he needs. We will definitely contact her again.”
“Gina & her family were amazing with our sweet, fluffy boy. I’d been spazzing as our home sitter backed out due to a family emergency. Communicated well with Gina, she was sweet, assuring & quick to respond. Got good vibes. Frequent photos & updates gave me peace & thoroughly enjoyed our vacay without worry. Thank you Gina, for loving on our baby & providing solid service 🫶”
“They were absolutely amazing! They communicated well and checked in everyday to let me know how Nova was doing throughout her stay! As someone who usually plans vacations with the idea of bringing my dog with me I don’t usually have her boarded so I was very nervous but they were truly amazing and if I ever have to have her boarded again I’ll definitely be booking with them!”
“Great communication and did an amazing job taking care of my dog. Debbie responds quickly and keeps you updated throughout the day so you have peace of mind!”
“Stefani was a great help ! We were in town and totally forgot the Texas State Aquarium didn’t allow pets. She took Lola into her home while we were at the aquarium. Kept me updated. When back in town and needing a sitter will definitely book again! Thank you once again!”
“Lillian is truly AMAZING! Ollie loves her so much that he didn’t want to leave. She was very accommodating and even had a meet up before so Ollie could meet her. 10 out of 10 service. We will be using Lillian for now on. Thank you Lillian!!”
“Highly recommend Lauryn! She cared for our 9 month old pup while we were away for a long weekend and really gave us peace of mind. She offered a welcoming, clean home and Frankie loved her dogs. Frankie came home clean and relaxed! We also received lots of pictures and great communication throughout Frankie’s stay. Hope to book with Lauryn in the future!!”
“Judith did a wonderful job caring for our Maxx. She sent us a picture and videos during his stay. When we returned for pickup, she gave me updates of his eating habits. I will definitely be using her again as a sitter. I felt my Maxx was safe and well taken care of while in her care.”
“Paige was so accommodating to our schedule. Both drop off and pick up were easy going. Remi is full of energy and loved playing in the backyard with her dogs. We can’t express the difference there is in a boarding kennel and this home care. No stress what so ever on our dog. She was happy and healthy no worries! Thanks Paige for caring for Remi like she was yours.”

“I highly recommend Veronica, she took very good care of our cats while we were out of town. It is such a relief knowing that your fur babies are in good care when your away from home!”
About: I’ve had two Siberian huskies growing up from age 4-18 and now I have two dogs of my own. One husky mix that I’ve had since she was 10 weeks and she is the absolute love of my life, and I also have a Great Pyrenees, so large dog breeds are not a problem for me. I love and give my all to animals and I hope you can trust me into the care of your fur babies. I also love cats and have two of my own. I consider my pets my kids and I would consider yours my kids as well and would only offer the best care. I can also assist in training puppies if you have one that you need help with as I’ve housebroken and done basic training with several puppies of all different breeds. Whether your pup is used to lounging on the couch and watching movies or going outside and catching a ball I’m happy to do what I can to make your pet feel like part of my family while they’re in my care. Thank you for your consideration of me with your fur babies and I hopefully look forward to getting to meet and care for your babies soon. I do currently work a full time 8hr day job 5 days a week, but I work less than 2 min from home so I’m home on breaks everyday to let pups out for a good potty/play break so they’re plenty tired and resting during my shifts I have a big privacy fenced in backyard and two of my own dogs, with different energy play levels, to play with guest dogs to keep everyone happy and exercised!
“Kaitlyn was an absolutely amazing drop-in sitter for my two cats! She came very 2 days and made sure they had plenty of food, water, and cleaned their litter. She always let me know when something needed attention and gave the cats lots of love! Highly recommend!”
“Penelope was absolutely incredible! Our situation is a bit unique since we have donkeys, goats, and horses in addition to our cats, but she handled everything with so much care and attention. I can be very particular about how my animals are cared for, and Penelope followed every detail perfectly. While we were gone for two weeks, she kept me at ease with frequent updates and photos, which I truly appreciated. On top of taking such great care of the animals, she was respectful of our home, kept everything clean, and even did her own laundry before leaving. It gave us such peace of mind knowing everything was in her hands. I honestly couldn’t imagine a better person for the job, and we will absolutely be using her services again in the future. Thank you, Penelope, for everything—you’re a gem!”
“Megan was informative and helpful. Went above and beyond helping with a fire alarm that was faulty. She sent many pictures of our cat and was easy to reach.”
“Karen was awesome. Gave us wonderful feedback and was so kind. She catered to my 3 cats with very distinctively different personalities. Fearful, playful and aloof. She always sent pictures. I was so happy to know that someone was checking in on them and making sure they were alright. The kitty cats were so calm when I returned. Thank you so much Karen!”
About: Hello! I’m Desiree. I'm 21 years old. I have one dog named Athena. I love animals, and I am a certified vet assistant. I would love to keep your animals company and take them on walks or to the park! I’m currently enrolled in online college, so I have plenty of time in the morning and evening to take care of your babies. I can work with you to find the best possible schedule for you and your animals I have a puppy who is highly anxious and can be slightly reactive. I have learned about pets' behavior and how to ensure an animal is relaxed and happy. I will ensure your animal is well cared for to your standards and routine.
About: I have two dogs of my own and I dog sit for friends and family. We have a small home but give plenty of out door fun all day long for those energetic puppies Weekends are mainly open for us. We would rather stay home with our pups then going out. If we do go anywhere our dogs are kennel trained. We will soon have a fenced yard but for now we use leashes for outdoor walks, runs and lots of play time to get that energy out of the puppies. Our dogs have their own futon and lots of toys to keep them busy indoors as well.
About: I just moved to Texas from North Carolina with the Navy! I work as an ICU nurse, and caring for others has always been a big part of who I am, including animals! I’ve been around pets since I was 12 years old, growing up with dogs, cats, chickens, and fish. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I know how much our pets mean to us, so I treat every animal like they’re my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in dependable hands. I don't start my new ICU position until the end of July, so I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most weekdays and weekends. I'm happy to work with your schedule to provide reliable care whenever you need it! Your pet’s safety and happiness will always come first. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, keep your dog safely leashed, make sure they have fresh water after our walk, and give them plenty of love, attention, and exercise. As an ICU nurse, I’m dependable, detail oriented, and stay calm in any situation, so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
About: Ive always enjoyed the little joy animals get when it comes to simple things such as using a high pitch to ask if they want to go on a walk or calling their name. I’m on a babysitting app and I’d love to try interacting with animals since they’re amazing .Animals and humans are different but the responsibility is kind of similar in which I bring. Im a college student so my classes are a little strange that had open gaps which comes with flexibility and just ready to help people throughout my time! I have a cat myself and treat her like my absolute child because animals can also be family members so of course I’ll be treating any animal as my own.
About: I've been around cats everyday for about 1 decade. I enjoy their versatile personalities and especially enjoy caring for young kittens. I have experience bottlefeeding kittens and have had 8 in my care. I currently have 1 cat, Artemis, who is very affectionate. She gets along well with my dog and new cats/dogs.
“This has been my 2nd time using Jackie and she's by far the absolute BEST and I absolutely ADORE her! I have 3 dogs. A senior, a 9 yr old and 1 yr old who is rambunctious as all get out and she is so gracious with them all. Definitely plan on using her again and again.... AND AGAIN 🤣”

About: I have been around dogs my entire life. From Dachshunds to Great Danes and every stray in between, I've owned fostered and adopted over 30 dogs of all sizes and different levels of need. My services include daily dog walks, hikes or runs for our high-energy clients (your preference), basic grooming (bathing and nail trimming) and obedience training. I understand your dogs aren't pets - they're people/ family and I'll treat them as such. "A dog will teach you unconditional love. If you can have that in your life, things won't be too bad." - Robert Wagner "I work hard everyday so that my dog can have a better life." - Unknown "My Dog Does this thing where she just exist and makes my life better" -Unknown
About: I have taken care of animals for 29 years. I have taken care of dogs with specific conditions and needs by pet parents / foster.

All very friendly animals
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and currently own a miniature schnauzer, so I understand the daily care, attention, and love they need. I also have experience pet sitting for others, caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding routines, playtime, and making sure your dog feels safe and happy while you’re away. I’m currently attending school online, which allows me to be home full-time and provide consistent care and attention for your pets. Because of this, I have very open and flexible availability throughout the week, including weekdays, weekends, and holidays. Your pet will never be left alone and will receive complete supervision, playtime, and care during their stay. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every pet in my care. In my home, I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can play and get exercise, as well as a friendly, well-socialized dog who enjoys having company. I always supervise interactions to make sure everyone stays safe and happy. I stick closely to each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and playtime. If your dog is crate-trained or you prefer they be crated at certain times, I’m more than happy to accommodate that. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions carefully to keep your pet comfortable in their familiar environment. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care so both you and your pet feel completely at ease.
“My Stormie loved going to Monica’s house for daycare. This was the first time I utilized Rover and took my dog with me while out of town on work. Monica and I communicated throughout the day and she made me feel at ease. The next time I am in Corpus for work I will definitely bring Stormie and utilize Monica again.”

Unfortunately he had to undergo emergency surgery (unrelated to her care) and I had to cancel, but Cindy’s immediate confirmation and response time was great and I hope to book with her again when Woodfords feeling better.”

About: I’ve taken care of all types of dogs and am able to help train dogs in being potty trained. I am extremely caring for dogs and enjoy learning how your pet experiences their own life! I’m currently not working so my full attention will be on your pet. I will take your dog out at least 3 times a day and can even take them to fun spots if allowed.

“Kaitlyn is amazing with my fur babies!! She always keeps me updated throughout her visits with them! She treats them as her own 10 out 10 would recommend… your fur babies are in good hands with her”
About: My experience has never stopped me from striving to be the best I can be. I’ve had animals in my home for over 15 years, cherishing every moment of it. I'm a stay at home house wife..and caring for your pets is no inconvenience for me.. your pets are very important to me and that they are properly taken care of.. My dog Pinky is never out of sight and my cats are indoor. I will never let out my cats because to many bugs outside..
About: I've been around both cats and dogs since I was a baby. We only have cats in our home, but one day, I'd like a dog too. My husband and I currently have 3 cats. We loved and cared for our special needs cat Donny for 3 years until she passed away. I have experience expressing a cat's bladder, administering medication, and giving ememas. The nasty stuff doesn't bother me. I cleaned up after her all the time and I can clean up after your baby too! I currently do real-estate and work part-time, but my schedule can be moved around depending on what I need to do. Any time can work out. I have 3 cats who are fixed. They can get along with other cats who are also cat firendly. I don't know how they would act with dogs, so I am not taking any in my home at the moment, but I love to drop in to visit them.
“Jaclyn is absolutely fabulous! She’s a wonderful communicator, always keeping me updated, and it’s clear she has a genuine love for dogs. My pup Max lights up with excitement the moment he sees her coming for his walks. Jaclyn is reliable, caring, and full of positive energy. We couldn’t ask for a better dog walker!”
About: YUP! Whether I am visiting with your pet or they are visiting with me, when they are in my care, EVERYTHING WE DO IS TRAINING! Between the physical exercise I will provide, cuddles & playtimes, your pet and I will work on basic commands, new tricks, and other mentally stimulating activities (I provide puzzles and a variety of other activates of your dog’s choosing). Every door we pass through is a sit-and-wait, to improve impulse control & focus their energy. Your dog’s time with me, and your money, will be spent on improving your dog’s manners and skill set, as I reenforce positive behavior and provide them with the mental stimulation they need to keep them from being destructive, board, anxious, etc. I am also experienced in training packs of dogs to respond to commands individually for multi-dog households. I am a professional dog handler/trainer. I have been providing exceptional care for pets (mostly dogs) on-and-off throughout my career. Since my first position as a kennel tech for a dog training company, contracted to train the Los Angeles Port Police dogs, I knew I had found my passion more than 20 years ago. I continued to follow my love for pets through freelance dog/puppy training, volunteering for nonprofits, and managing several full-service dog and pet resorts; including a brand local to St. Louis, MO, where the seven resorts would bring in 80-145 dogs per day, each. I have decided to turn my natural talents as a dog whisperer, and my professional experience as dog handler, into my own full-time business, doing what makes me happy by caring the pet(s) that make you happy! I am diligently working to make pet care my full-time job in the private aspect. I am currently available at your convenience 24/7 for your pet care needs! Whether your fur-baby is in my home, your home, or a pet resort, their safety and wellbeing is my top priority! When I walk dogs, I use a 2-part leash system to ensure a failsafe slip-lead in case the dog slips its collar or harness during the walk. All pets in my care are either under my direct supervision, or safely secured in an appropriate and comfortable enclosure. All pets in my care have access to fresh water at their disposal – including if kenneled. All of my pet-care equipment is in good repair and most of my equipment is professional grade, ordered from a popular police K9 equipment reseller. These are just a few of the many steps I take to ensure the comfort and safety of your fur-baby, and your peace of mind.
About: I’ve grown up around pets my entire life, dogs, cats, birds, turtles, etc! I’m a huge believer that they’re like family! I had a dog of my own for most of my life that was blind and diabetic, so I’m familiar with taking care of dogs of old age and medical care. I currently work as a flight attendant as well so my schedule varies week to week! I typically have spans on days on/off that make it easy for me to take care of your pets for several days! I live in an apartment that has sidewalks and grass all around, it’s a pet friendly complex:) I have no other pets or children that affect the environment. I’m also nearby a jogging trail that I love to take pets on for walks!
About: I have 4 dogs and two cats of my own. I work night shift and my wife works day shift we always have someone at home. I also speak Spanish. I work at night and have plenty of free time to care for your fur babies. I have always had pets since I was a child. I know the stress of going underway and worrying for your fur babies let me help and care for your pets. I love animals and have a cat and dog that absolutely love each other. I’ll take care of your pets like they are my own I’ll take them on walks play with them and let them run free at the dog park. They are allowed on bed and couch. Maybe learn a trick or two in the process.
“Arden is Wonderful ! Our corgi is thrilled with her and she is super professional, responsive, friendly and loving. Smart and intuitive and knows just what he needs (walk/play etc). We are already rebooking and highly recommend!”

Im currently available before 2pm and after 10pm. i have open availability all day/night on wensdays and thursdays to take care of your pups! ❤️ I have a fenced backyard. I provide treats, dog food. and water. with a clean environment! i am also willing to travel and pet sit.
About: Ive always enjoyed the little joy animals get when it comes to simple things such as using a high pitch to ask if they want to go on a walk or calling their name. I’m on a babysitting app and I’d love to try interacting with animals since they’re amazing .Animals and humans are different but the responsibility is kind of similar in which I bring.

About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely understand how important pets are to their families because I’m a pet parent myself. I currently care for two dogs of my own—Apollo, a 4-year-old Siberian Husky, and Milo, a 3-year-old Shih Tzu—which has given me experience with dogs of different sizes, energy levels, and personalities. I believe every pet deserves individualized care, patience, and attention. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or prefers a calm and relaxing environment, I will adapt to their needs and routine to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I am dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to keeping pet owners informed through regular updates and photos. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else requires trust, and I strive to provide peace of mind by treating every pet as if they were my own. My experience with both a high-energy Husky and a small companion breed has taught me the importance of exercise, consistency, supervision, and positive interactions. Above all, I provide a safe, loving environment where pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. Right now, pet care fits into my schedule primarily on weekends. I am starting with weekend availability so I can dedicate my full attention and energy to each pet I care for without conflicting weekday commitments. This allows me to provide reliable walks, drop-ins, or overnight care while ensuring pets receive consistent attention and supervision. On weekends, I have the flexibility to plan my time around feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and any specific routines each pet needs. I make it a priority to follow the owner’s instructions closely so pets stay comfortable and maintain their normal routine while their owners are away. As I grow on Rover, I plan to gradually expand my availability into weekdays as well. My goal is to eventually offer more flexible scheduling while still maintaining the same level of care, communication, and dependability that I provide on weekends. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets in either my home or a client’s home. I make sure to follow all instructions exactly as provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, walking routines, medication needs, and any house rules to keep the pet’s environment consistent and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain a calm, clean, and secure environment. I ensure doors are properly closed and locked, pets are always supervised during visits, and I stay attentive to anything that could affect their safety or comfort. I focus on building trust with each pet by being patient, gentle, and allowing them to adjust at their own pace. I also keep pet parents updated with messages, photos, and notes so they always know how their pet is doing. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for, just as they would with their own family.
“Karen is amazing! She has an awesome attitude, always happy, and phenomenal with our dogs! Our dogs run to her when she gets here and stare at the door when she leaves just hoping for her to come back.”
About: I have over 8 years of training and care giving experience in over 20 different species of animals ranging from livestock to dolphins. My life has always involved animals. Growing up we had at one point 20 pets (chickens to an iguana). I continued and expanded my animal experience when I decided to pursue a Bachelors degree in Animal Science from Texas A&M-Kingsville. Equipped with my formal education, I started a career at the Texas State Aquarium where I learned how to train an array of species using operant conditioning focusing on obtaining desired behaviors through positive reinforcement. When I left the aquarium I branched out to the veterinarian side of the industry. Finally, I made it back to training and decided to focus on dogs because they are such an integrated aspect of our day to day lives. Now, after a years of calling South Texas home, I was delivered to the island of Oahu. I currently work as a marine observer, taking my love for animals to the ocean. I collect data for conservation and mitigation. When I’m not out at sea, I want bring love and fun into your pets life. Being around God’s gentle creatures is truly where my heart sings!!! I understand that our pets are not just an animal that lives with us but they are family! Their well-being is a priority. Consistent exercise and compassionate caregiving will create a happy, healthy pet! LET ME ADD TO YOUR HOME-LIFE OF HAPPINESS! ❤️ I will assist you in caring for your pets from exercise to training (using positive reinforcement), grooming, and/or pet sitting! I have a very unique and adventurous job that takes me off land for 14-28 days at a time. I’m a marine observer. But when I am in between voyages, I am completely free to live life anyway. I am able to accommodate nearly any schedule. My services are ideal for pet owners that need someone for a day or a few weeks at a time. I consider caring for your pet a premium service and you both deserve premium actions. With this in mind, you and your pets comfort are number one priority. If you decide that a hike is something that is good, hiking we will go. But if your pet requires different, lower activity needs, a relaxing walk in the neighborhood is in call. I can also offer obedience training for you pet.
About: I provide more than basic pet sitting—I offer calm, attentive care tailored to each pet’s unique personality and routine. I take the time to build trust with every animal, whether that means energetic playtime, quiet companionship, or sticking closely to established feeding and walking schedules. I communicate clearly with owners so they always know their pet is safe, happy, and cared for. My goal is for pets to feel secure and loved in their own home, and for owners to have complete peace of mind while they’re away. I attend Texas A&M University Corpus Christi and get out of classes early so I can attend to your pets in the middle of the day when you are at your busiest. I respect the home and pace at which dogs like to walk. I also use whatever is provided to make sure the pet feels safe and at home.
“Lillian is the BEST! We have used her many times for boarding and dog walking and she provides 10 out of 10 service. Ollie loves her and is super excited when he gets to see her. She also is great at accommodating late bookings. You will love her! Thank you Lillian”
About: I’ve always have had a huge heart for all animals since I was a kid. Now that we have adopted our baby I got to quit my job and stayhome.But I would love to do something I actually love and that is taking care of fur babies. I have 5 dogs and 1 cat ranging from pitbull, American Bully, miniature pincher, and two Frenchies. They are definitely spoiled for sure. I am available anytime except for overnight visits. My fur babies are very gentle with our son and he will learn to love animals as well.. I have a fenced backyard that our fur babies get to enjoy sunbathing in playing as much as they like. I will not be bringing any animals to our home just for the safety of not knowing how my dogs would like other dogs in their yard..
About: I am currently employed as a dog groomer and I have experience as a vet tech! I have had my two dogs for 8 years and I also have pet cats. I have been involved in the rescue community for years, saving dogs and cats and having them sent up north for adoptions. I have the patience required to care for all kinds of animals! I work as a dog groomer during the day, and I can bring my dogs to work with me because we have kennels separating each dog. I am off all day on Sundays. I am extremely patient when it comes to caring for my pets and others’ pets. I am extremely skilled caring for aggressive and timid dogs. One of my dogs has arthritis and hip dysplasia, so he is on constant medication and steroid injections. My other Pomeranian has urinary problems and anxiety, especially around any loud noises, so I have to be extremely patient when she wakes up at all hours of the morning when she is having an anxiety attack. One of my cats also has an enlarged heart, so he is on medication everyday for the rest of his life. But, I wouldn’t change them for anything in the world. Their traits and quirkiness makes them each special in their own way and I look forward to taking care of your pets and learning their different personalities! I work as a dog groomer during the day, so I am allowed to take my pets or my boarding dogs with me to work. We do not allow the dogs to interact for safety reasons, so each dog has their own large kennel. This way your fur babies are not left home alone all day, everyday. I have a fenced yard and friendly pets. I have a two bedroom home with a large living room area. If your dogs are not good with other dogs or cats, I can keep my pets in a separate room while giving your pups the space that they require to feel comfortable and safe. We allow our pets on the bed, so if your pup likes cuddles- there’s plenty to go around! I keep my pets as well as my boarding dogs on a strict schedule when it comes to eating and meds because consistency is key! I try to send pictures and videos every few days so that my clients can have peace of mind while their pups are being boarded and enjoy their trip! I also have cameras all over the inside and outside of my home so that if I am away I can constantly check on my pets and yours.

“Heather took great care of our dog while we were out of town. She gave us updates with pictures everyday, which put us at ease knowing that our dog was in good hands. We will definitely use Heather next time we need to travel.”
“Megan went above and beyond to make sure our dog was taken care of. Took her to the park and on multiple walks a day. She welcomed our dog into her home with open arms and spoiled her everyday. Can’t recommend Megan enough. 10/10!!!”
“Karimar was great! The updates she sent daily, I could tell my pup was comfortable and in good company. No complaints at all. And in case I need it again, I hope to be able to book with her. Thanks so much!”
“Cindy and her family are so amazing! I was updated multiple times a day! My dog looked extremely happy in every photo Cindy sent to me! I felt she went above and beyond to make my sweet girl💕 comfortable! Would definitely recommend using Cindy as your dog sitter!”
“Booked sort of last minute but Delelah allowed my dogs to come over for a meet and greet with her dogs a few days before their stay so they could get comfortable, which I really appreciated! She also kept me updated and my dogs came home happy and tired from playing so hard.”
“Gina & her family were amazing with our sweet, fluffy boy. I’d been spazzing as our home sitter backed out due to a family emergency. Communicated well with Gina, she was sweet, assuring & quick to respond. Got good vibes. Frequent photos & updates gave me peace & thoroughly enjoyed our vacay without worry. Thank you Gina, for loving on our baby & providing solid service 🫶”
“They were absolutely amazing! They communicated well and checked in everyday to let me know how Nova was doing throughout her stay! As someone who usually plans vacations with the idea of bringing my dog with me I don’t usually have her boarded so I was very nervous but they were truly amazing and if I ever have to have her boarded again I’ll definitely be booking with them!”
“Great communication and did an amazing job taking care of my dog. Debbie responds quickly and keeps you updated throughout the day so you have peace of mind!”
“Stefani was a great help ! We were in town and totally forgot the Texas State Aquarium didn’t allow pets. She took Lola into her home while we were at the aquarium. Kept me updated. When back in town and needing a sitter will definitely book again! Thank you once again!”
“Lillian is truly AMAZING! Ollie loves her so much that he didn’t want to leave. She was very accommodating and even had a meet up before so Ollie could meet her. 10 out of 10 service. We will be using Lillian for now on. Thank you Lillian!!”
“Highly recommend Lauryn! She cared for our 9 month old pup while we were away for a long weekend and really gave us peace of mind. She offered a welcoming, clean home and Frankie loved her dogs. Frankie came home clean and relaxed! We also received lots of pictures and great communication throughout Frankie’s stay. Hope to book with Lauryn in the future!!”
“Paige was so accommodating to our schedule. Both drop off and pick up were easy going. Remi is full of energy and loved playing in the backyard with her dogs. We can’t express the difference there is in a boarding kennel and this home care. No stress what so ever on our dog. She was happy and healthy no worries! Thanks Paige for caring for Remi like she was yours.”
“Ford was very well taken care of and cared for during his stay. I will definitely have to return Ford here again in the future, I greatly appreciate everything.”
“Our fur babies absolutely LOVED staying at Khea’s house for the week we were on vacation. Khea sent us countless updates and pictures and really made us feel relieved and happy; we knew they were being taken care of and that they were having fun with her kids and her dog! Our Aussie had been having trouble eating his food for the past few weeks and Khea mixed it up with her labs dog food and made sure he ate while he was there. She really treated our dogs like family and I would consider her to be a gem of Corpus Christi Rover. Highly, highly recommended!”
“You can tell Tisha loves her dogs and other's as her own. She took great care of my fur babies. She does ask you to sign an extra waiver and puts all dogs in crates when she leaves. Wish I had know but all good.”
