“We love Ashley and always feel more than comfortable bringing our pup, Charlie, to stay here. Between the interactions with different animals and dogs to playing outside and in the water, we joke that he gets his own little vacation! Ashley is so kind provides lots of updates. We are so grateful for the care she provides Charlie!”
“Roxy LOVES going to keliann's house to stay. I know this for a fact, because Keliann sends pictures of Roxy playing and she always looks so happy in the pictures. Please do yourself a favor, and board your dog with Keliann!”
“Nancy and her granddaughter took good care of my dog. He seemed healthy and in good spirits when I picked him up. Nancy was responsive to my texts and didn't mind small changes such as when I needed to pick him up a couple of hours early”
“Oreo is always well taken care of and this is her home away from home. Lacy always gives good pictures and video and gives us great tips on our dog’s personality and needs. We will return of course. Thank you for being a true caregiver!”
“Hamlets is so amazing, they love dogs and it shows. I love how she keeps us updated and posts pictures. Your dog will get so spoiled they won’t want to come home. We have used her two times now and have no regrets!!”
“Ocean responded quickly to request and I think her calm temperament made the doggies feel at ease even though we didn’t do a meet and greet. Sent pictures several times and we were able to enjoy a quick getaway weekend. Will definitely use again. Thank you.”
“Mikal was wonderful! She immediately put me at ease as I was very anxious about leaving my dogs. Ranger and Olivia loved her and were very at ease in her home! The daily pictures let me know that all was well. I highly recommend her!”
“Eva & Kallven took great care of my boy. Eva kept updated with daily pictures and check ins on how Louie was doing. Louie took to the whole family wonderfully. I would definitely recommend using them, because I plan on it the next time I need a sitter.?”
“We hadn’t left our 10-year-old silver Lab with anyone in a long time, and we really didn’t want to board her in a large facility. We were looking for something more personal and calm, and Roland ended up being a perfect fit. Communication was great from the start, which made leaving for an extended Europe trip much easier. Our dog got lots of individual attention and gentle socialization with Roland’s dog Coco, and she was clearly comfortable and happy while we were away. Roland even worked with her on a few behaviors and took the time to show us how to continue that at home, which we really appreciated. We came home to a relaxed, well-cared-for dog. He’ll definitely be our first call for future pet sitting and boarding, and we highly recommend him.”
“Shang went above and beyond in taking care of my dog. After realizing I forgot to bring vegs and other supplementary food I had packed, Shang facilitated the missing foods, giving that human touch and care.”
“I loved everything! Ashley was so sweet with my dog and very welcoming. She communicated with me very well even when I requested everything last minute . Kept me updated and when I came back my dog didn’t wanna leave 😹 , so I think that’s a good sign”
“Neel and his family are very nice and supportive. Can’t express how grateful I feel to have them care for Cheese. They shared pictures/videos to us every day. Sydney is now the best friend of Cheese for sure. They sent Cheese to the vet when he does not feel very well. Communication is very easy. Will definitely be back in the future! Thanks Neel!”
“Could not have been better. We got delayed and they offered to keep our critters longer. Great communication and updates. My new permanent dog sitters. Great people”
“I’m so happy to find someone who can take care of my chihuahua so well! I was out of country for 10 days and they updated me with pictures and made sure my baby was taken care of. Iggy was so happy and so was I.”
“Thank you for treating Truman like your own. This is the longest time we have been apart from our baby but I never had to worry. Janna and her husband updated us everyday. Truman came home well taken care of and full of exercise. They are very flexible and addressed all of our requests and concerns even at the last minute. We are extremely thankful and for sure use their services again.”
“Reagan and her family did an excellent job taking care of our 2 dogs while we went on a post Christmas family vacation. Their attention to detail and care they took was second to none. We greatly appreciate it and we know we have a great, trustworthy option to care for our other kids in the future! 😁”
“Sarah was great! Our boys were super happy when they came home and she kept in contact with us. We will definitely leave our boys with her again if we have to leave them overnight again”
“Took care of my little kujo like he was family, hes never stayed away from home but was so happy there, will definitely book again of i wver need someone to watch my my best friend, thank you so much for keeping him safe and happy”
“Ariel took excellent care of my Bailey, so glad to have made the connection. I appreciated Ariel for sending pictures and updates without asking, definitely made me feel comfortable knowing he was in great hands and will book again!!”

About: Potty trained from birth is a crazy stat line to have. The purr you get from rubbing and scratching on just the right spot is music to my ears. I love cats and playing with their toys even entertains me. That said, Clean litter boxes are a must not only for our smelling, but for their liking.
About: I’ve had animals all my life big and small ! I can medicate your fur baby if needed. I worked at an animal clinic for 6 years. I’d like to earn some extra money doing something I really enjoy like caring for animals. Even if it’s just feeding/playing/checking up on them for you. Currently I can not do many weekdays. But weekends are best for me at the moment. I have two large dogs and a 1 kitty cat. I understand how hard it can be to find someone to trust with your fur babies. I am here to tell u i can be that person who can cuddle with your adorable furbaby if you’re at work or on vacation. I Promise to show your babies so much love while im taking care of them. Weekend is when I am available for check in and walks. Shoot me a message to see what times work for you. I could do some week days only morning and afternoon check in with feedings but no walks at the moment. I pay lots of close attention to your baby while making sure they feel safe in my presence. I will give them space if needed or play with them until we are both tired. So please let me know what activities they enjoy.
About: Hello! Growing up, I always wanted a cat. Unfortunately, my mother was highly allergic to them. It wasn't until I moved out that I got my first baby, Cati or Cat. She was my best friend! I also currently have an inside cat who I received on a rescue basis when she was barely a week old. I have experience with bottle feeding kittens and with grown cats.
About: Hi! I've had pets for as long as I can remember, I volunteer for the spca as well. I would love to help you out. I'm available at all times during the weekends and I'm mostly available during the week days after 4:30pm no later than 7:00 but feel free to message me about any special time requests I've been taking care of dogs, cats, birds, goats and even sometimes wild animals. I've grown up taking care of animals I've pet sit for family and friends many times and I love it
About: I've taken care of animals for the past 12 years for clients and friends of mine. Their animals always took to me really well with me being around them so often and showing them love, so they began asking me if I could pet sit for them. I also have a 3 dogs, 2 cats, 2 rabbits and chickens. I am a stay at home mom that homeschools so my schedule is very flexible. Let me know your preferences and we can work something out. I can administer medication if needed also. I have experience giving insulin shots. I show them love and affection, let them out to go potty and play with them before I put them back up. I follow detailed instructions
“I have two cats! Keliann did a wonderful job! This was my first time using Rover. I was a bit nervous at first how this was all going to go! She was very helpful and informative which helped ease my anxiety! Throughout the time she kept me updated with detailed notes on how the visit went! She seems very attentive and definitely an animal lover! I can’t thank her enough for her help!”
About: I stay at home so dogs or cats are integrated and socializing with me 24/7. I do have animals of my own as well, the more the merrier! I stay at home so dogs or cats are integrated and socializing with me 24/7. I do have animals of my own as well, the more the merrier! I have 2 friendly dogs in my home, they do have their own kennels as well. We do not have a backyard but we do have a nice dog park that we use, as well as a larger dog park nearby.
About: I've had pets my whole life - I especially love cats and dogs. When I graduated high school I began to pet sit in homes. I love being able to give peace to owners and pet parents while they're away. I enjoy playing with and snuggling with fur babies! You can expect at least one picture a day of your fur baby, quick communication, and rules to be followed to the T. I am currently in-between jobs, which means I am free most days! Unless otherwise discussed, I don't pet sit on Sundays (but I am open to the possibility - some Sundays I volunteer at my church so I am not available for long periods of time then). Due to having my own dog at home, I generally make it a rule to either come to your house for check-ins or to stay at your house so I may better service you and your fur babies without incident. I like to know as many details about your pets as possible. Before agreeing to a job, I like to come and meet the fur babies to make sure we are a good fit together. I can walk or let your animals out to exercise and use the potty, feed and water them, clean up messes and litter boxes, play and snuggle with them, and more. I won't, however, bathe or give medication in most cases - pills put or crushed into food are okay, but injections and such are not.
“Bre was freaking AWESOME. I had a last minute out of town trip, and Bre responded so quickly and was so willing to do whatever to help make my time away smooth. I would 100% trust her with my babies again and look forward to having her look out for them when I’m away. 100% recommend Bre she will take great care of your babies & was awesome about sending pics and communicating when she arrived/left. Thanks so much Bre!! ??”
“Jayleene was a huge relief for us going on vacation and leaving our cats. She updated us both visits when she got there. We have one cat that doesn’t really care to be social and our other one is the social butterfly. Her son came along and in the photos, he looked so happy and Mikasa was being so sweet with him. Thank you so much. Will definitely be using her services again!”
“Kenna is awesome! We have used several sitters/walkers booked through Rover and Kenna is by far one of the best. She's great with my dog, and my dog loves her. She followed all my instructions, shows up when scheduled, and always checks in with an update. I know my pup loves seeing her when she comes by. Will be using Kenna whenever we need someone!”
About: From a young age I loved being around animals, I started out helping my mom since she is a wildlife rehabilitation rescuer. I worked as a Veterinary Technician with small and large animal, and have been working as a receptionist in Veterinary Clinics for 7 years now. Animals bring a happiness to me that is indescribable and if you hire me as your pet sitter I promise that your fur babies will become a part of my family! I will treat them as my own, if you’d like to book please let me know. I like to do meet and greets before I do the job to meet your fur babies, you, and make sure that I have an understanding of the routine to best take care of them while your away! I am currently not working so I am doing pet sitting full time, I can pretty much do any date or time. Just let me know what works best for you. For pet sitting, I would do so in the comfort of your own home and where your pet feels the safest. I do not have a fenced in yard, so to make sure that the pet care is safe I feel it is best to provide it in your home.
About: I have taken care of all kinds of cats, and can ensure they have a loving home away from home. I will keep the litter clean and your kitties fed loved on.

“We recently moved from the only house my dogs knew and they have never been to a dog sitter before. They have been a little sheltered. I was so nervous leaving them, but Nancy and her granddaughter have been so accommodating and patient with my fur babies. After only a couple of days, my dogs are more relaxed and now seem to look forward to going to Nancy’s house! If you are looking for someone who will do a great job caring for your pet then give Nancy a call!”

About: Providing a stress free environment from a stay at home nana. I would love to create a home away from home for your beloved fur baby. Life long love for animals. I work from home so can accommodate to your fur babies schedule. My home is quiet and easy to navigate for any pet that may have anxiety. My backyard is fenced in and can provide plenty of room for activity. I usually let my chihuahua out every hour or so, or give him the option to go out. He generally likes to stay under his blanket a majority of the day though. He does get along well with other dogs, as he has lived with larger dogs previously.

About: My name is Payton, we live in a house with a half acre back yard. I am a stay at home mom, so we will have tons of time for actives and attention. We have an 8 year old Husky named Ridge, he is very sweet and LOVES other dogs. Ridge loves to run, so we spend most of our days playing in the yard, taking walks in our quiet neighborhood or going for an easy hike with our daughters. I also have experience in the Veterinary field for those who have pups with special needs (medications, special dietary restrictions, etc.). We also have a very lax orange cat named Jack, who is very good with other animals. I am a stay at home mama to my little ones, so I am home with your pups all day to play and tend to whatever they may need. We have 1 dog in the house, a very lazy husky named Ridge. He absolutely loves other dogs and will play relentlessly with any dogs. We do also have 1 cat, Jack. He is very tolerant and calm. We have a half acre yard with plenty of space for frolicking and play time. We do also love to go to the dog park in the evenings when it’s not so hot. I am very attentive to all the pets in my home. Both my animals are very relaxed but get their share of romping time! I will make sure your dog gets all the love and affection they could possibly need as well as feeding and potty breaks.

About: I have been taking care of dogs and other animals my whole life! I’ve had dogs, cats, and horses that I’ve cared for on a daily basis. I’ve given baths, administered medication, and given them all the love and pets they desire! I am a very active person so I love to go for walks and play outside. I think it’s important that dogs be active as well and get out all their energy during the day so they can sleep peacefully in the night. I would be a great sitter for your dog because I have the compassion and the right knowledge to make your pet as happy as can be. I am currently enrolled in graduate school so I usually am available week nights and weekends! Sometimes my schedule can vary but I try my best to work around your schedule! I currently live in an apartment so I would most likely be caring for your pets in your own home! I am very flexible and can adapt to any needs you may have which may include crating, fenced in yards, electric fences, etc.
About: Growing up in the country, I cared for pets and farm animals. My experience and love for all creatures began there! Interacting with them has always been the highlight of my day. From cats, dogs, small animals, aquatic life and reptiles, to horses, dairy goats, birds, pigs and chickens, I have you covered! I've owned most, and cared for the rest. No matter what, I keep critters close! As a child was rarely seen without an animal or flock in tow. I raised pigs, chickens, dove, rabbits. As well as trained dogs and horses. Later on In Edna, I was a ranch hand on a small dairy farm. Now living in the city, I care mostly for cats and dogs, but I still love them all! I wouldn't imagine my life any other way! I have a very open and movable schedule. I can pretty much work with anything. The safety and care of your pup is always at the top of my list. I have a fenced yard with a large shaded area. Indoor and crate training is also great. I will make sure they are comfortable and safe.

Prices are estimates per walk. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: Ask me about $20 off on your first booking with me! I live on a 20+ acres farm. Plenty of room for your furbabies to play fetch, roam around and run with freedom. I will teach your fur babies some manners/commands if they don't know any, and even some ASL! They are smarter than you think they are. I am a very respectful and loving person. You will not be disappointed. I can make your dog sleep good at night. I can take care of any types of breed and willing to learn about his/her needs. I will research before I meet your dog’s type of breed to get to know them better so I can provide much better service than what you will ask for. Thank you for reading this and hope to hear you soon! Pet sitting is my full time job. I love spending time with fur-babies on daily basis on top of taking care of my own furry ones. I typically take my dogs on daily walk and to the dog park to ease their mind instead of being cooped up in the house all the time. I can provide the same for your fur-babies.
About: I’m studying to be an engineer and my dad has a joke that i’m coming back as a veterinarian which says a lot. Unconditional love is what dogs have and the only thing you can do with it is to give some right back to them. I love going on walks and runs even without dogs, so it’s a perfect match. I’m also pretty good at tug of war, i might let your dog win a few times. I’m currently a student at A&M Kingsville with a lot of free time between classes and i’m very flexible as far as my schedule goes. I’m always eat at home and can unsure your dog gets a meal too. I do have a medium sized crate along with some treats of my own. In my apartment complex there is a fenced in doggy area as well as a bunch of yard throughout. As stated though, i love going on walks and letting them explore the campus, and other people love giving out pets and scratches.
About: My name is Kristy I'm a major animal lover. I've volunteered at the Pasadena animal control and the houston humane society, numerous doggy daycares/boarding facilities and a vet clinic. I've always had a strong passion for working with animals. I have plenty of experience working with dogs of all sizes and personalities, from Chihuahuas and pugs to malamutes and mastiffs. I love working will all breeds and would love to come into your home and give them the much needed love and attention while you are away. I also have many years of experience with pets with scales and arachnids. I am currently taking colleges classes, moatly online so i am almost always free.I look forward to hearing from you soon. Thank you so much and have a blessed day! I am currently a college student who takes classes, mostly online so most of my time is free. I have 2 school aged boys so during the school year, I may be unavailable around morning drop off and afternoon pick up times. I have a fully fenced 1.5 acre backyard with two gates that remain locked. I also have home cameras inside. Between myself, my husband and our children, your babies will be supervised 24/7.
About: I've taken care of animals for the past 12 years for clients and friends of mine. Their animals always took to me really well with me being around them so often and showing them love, so they began asking me if I could pet sit for them. I also have a 3 dogs, 2 cats, 2 rabbits and chickens. I am a stay at home mom that homeschools so my schedule is very flexible. Let me know your preferences and we can work something out. I can administer medication if needed also. I have experience giving insulin shots. I show them love and affection, let them out to go potty and play with them before I put them back up. I follow detailed instructions
About: From a young age I loved being around animals, I started out helping my mom since she is a wildlife rehabilitation rescuer. I worked as a Veterinary Technician with small and large animal, and have been working as a receptionist in Veterinary Clinics for 7 years now. Animals bring a happiness to me that is indescribable and if you hire me as your pet sitter I promise that your fur babies will become a part of my family! I will treat them as my own, if you’d like to book please let me know. I like to do meet and greets before I do the job to meet your fur babies, you, and make sure that I have an understanding of the routine to best take care of them while your away! I am currently not working so I am doing pet sitting full time, I can pretty much do any date or time. Just let me know what works best for you. For pet sitting, I would do so in the comfort of your own home and where your pet feels the safest. I do not have a fenced in yard, so to make sure that the pet care is safe I feel it is best to provide it in your home.
About: I've had pets my whole life - I especially love cats and dogs. When I graduated high school I began to pet sit in homes. I love being able to give peace to owners and pet parents while they're away. I enjoy playing with and snuggling with fur babies! You can expect at least one picture a day of your fur baby, quick communication, and rules to be followed to the T. I am currently in-between jobs, which means I am free most days! Unless otherwise discussed, I don't pet sit on Sundays (but I am open to the possibility - some Sundays I volunteer at my church so I am not available for long periods of time then). Due to having my own dog at home, I generally make it a rule to either come to your house for check-ins or to stay at your house so I may better service you and your fur babies without incident. I like to know as many details about your pets as possible. Before agreeing to a job, I like to come and meet the fur babies to make sure we are a good fit together. I can walk or let your animals out to exercise and use the potty, feed and water them, clean up messes and litter boxes, play and snuggle with them, and more. I won't, however, bathe or give medication in most cases - pills put or crushed into food are okay, but injections and such are not.

For dogs, it follows the same structure with added enrichment and outside time in between. I have one dog and one puppy who spend time mostly outside and come in for breaks and food/snacks.

And I have 2 guinea pigs who eat twice a day and will come out of their cage for enrichment and play time.

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and the care I put into making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and needs — whether that’s slow strolls, energetic playtime, or quiet companionship. I’m dependable, communicative, and always respectful of your home and your pet’s routine. My goal is to build trust with both you and your furry family member. I am currently working very part time on the weekends, while also expecting a new baby boy here in November! I am free all day every weekday! While weekends are up for debate! When caring for pets in my client’s home, I always treat the space with the same respect I’d want for my own. I follow your instructions closely to keep your pet on their usual routine and make sure they feel safe and secure in their familiar environment. I keep a calm, positive energy to help pets feel at ease and never rush through walks or visits. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority — whether that’s keeping them hydrated, cleaning up after them, or making sure they’re never left unsupervised outside. I also stay in touch with regular updates and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: I have had my dog since he was first born and I've had pets my entire childhood almost. I house trained Bandit my dog in one month, which includes potty training, hand signals, and crate. I stay at home with my 6 month old son so I have plenty of time in my day to care and play with pups. I have an unfenced yard but I have 2 leads outside and I like to take my dog to the dog park. He gets treats but we don't give him any people food. My dog used to sleep on the bed with us but since my son has been born I haven't let him on the bed. My son is getting more mobile and I'm thinking about letting him back on the bed. I also have a big box of dog treats. If a dog crate is needed I have plenty of room.

About: My name is Payton, we live in a house with a half acre back yard. I am a stay at home mom, so we will have tons of time for actives and attention. We have an 8 year old Husky named Ridge, he is very sweet and LOVES other dogs. Ridge loves to run, so we spend most of our days playing in the yard, taking walks in our quiet neighborhood or going for an easy hike with our daughters. I also have experience in the Veterinary field for those who have pups with special needs (medications, special dietary restrictions, etc.). We also have a very lax orange cat named Jack, who is very good with other animals. I am a stay at home mama to my little ones, so I am home with your pups all day to play and tend to whatever they may need. We have 1 dog in the house, a very lazy husky named Ridge. He absolutely loves other dogs and will play relentlessly with any dogs. We do also have 1 cat, Jack. He is very tolerant and calm. We have a half acre yard with plenty of space for frolicking and play time. We do also love to go to the dog park in the evenings when it’s not so hot. I am very attentive to all the pets in my home. Both my animals are very relaxed but get their share of romping time! I will make sure your dog gets all the love and affection they could possibly need as well as feeding and potty breaks.

Because of my degree I have a background in animal behavior which I use to help talk to and understand animals. I have worked with pets, dolphins and wolves in the past.

I currently don’t have any set in stone commitments but I have the occasional volunteer project but can work around any Rover commitment. Let me know what you need and we can figure something out! I have a truck so it’s easy to go somewhere safe for your pet if your neighborhood doesn’t have a good play spot. If I am staying at a clients place can take the dog to a dog park if there isn't one nearby.

“We love Ashley and always feel more than comfortable bringing our pup, Charlie, to stay here. Between the interactions with different animals and dogs to playing outside and in the water, we joke that he gets his own little vacation! Ashley is so kind provides lots of updates. We are so grateful for the care she provides Charlie!”
“Roxy LOVES going to keliann's house to stay. I know this for a fact, because Keliann sends pictures of Roxy playing and she always looks so happy in the pictures. Please do yourself a favor, and board your dog with Keliann!”
“Nancy and her granddaughter took good care of my dog. He seemed healthy and in good spirits when I picked him up. Nancy was responsive to my texts and didn't mind small changes such as when I needed to pick him up a couple of hours early”
“Hamlets is so amazing, they love dogs and it shows. I love how she keeps us updated and posts pictures. Your dog will get so spoiled they won’t want to come home. We have used her two times now and have no regrets!!”
“Ocean responded quickly to request and I think her calm temperament made the doggies feel at ease even though we didn’t do a meet and greet. Sent pictures several times and we were able to enjoy a quick getaway weekend. Will definitely use again. Thank you.”
“Mikal was wonderful! She immediately put me at ease as I was very anxious about leaving my dogs. Ranger and Olivia loved her and were very at ease in her home! The daily pictures let me know that all was well. I highly recommend her!”
“We hadn’t left our 10-year-old silver Lab with anyone in a long time, and we really didn’t want to board her in a large facility. We were looking for something more personal and calm, and Roland ended up being a perfect fit. Communication was great from the start, which made leaving for an extended Europe trip much easier. Our dog got lots of individual attention and gentle socialization with Roland’s dog Coco, and she was clearly comfortable and happy while we were away. Roland even worked with her on a few behaviors and took the time to show us how to continue that at home, which we really appreciated. We came home to a relaxed, well-cared-for dog. He’ll definitely be our first call for future pet sitting and boarding, and we highly recommend him.”
“Shang went above and beyond in taking care of my dog. After realizing I forgot to bring vegs and other supplementary food I had packed, Shang facilitated the missing foods, giving that human touch and care.”
“Neel and his family are very nice and supportive. Can’t express how grateful I feel to have them care for Cheese. They shared pictures/videos to us every day. Sydney is now the best friend of Cheese for sure. They sent Cheese to the vet when he does not feel very well. Communication is very easy. Will definitely be back in the future! Thanks Neel!”
“Thank you for treating Truman like your own. This is the longest time we have been apart from our baby but I never had to worry. Janna and her husband updated us everyday. Truman came home well taken care of and full of exercise. They are very flexible and addressed all of our requests and concerns even at the last minute. We are extremely thankful and for sure use their services again.”
“Sarah was great! Our boys were super happy when they came home and she kept in contact with us. We will definitely leave our boys with her again if we have to leave them overnight again”

He took the time to get to know Rexy, followed all of our instructions perfectly 📝🍽️, and treated him with so much love and care 🥰🐾. We got adorable photo updates 📸🦴 and messages that truly put our minds at ease. It was clear that Rexy felt comfortable and happy the entire time 💆♂️🐶.

That kind of trust and heart means everything! We are so grateful to have found someone so reliable, kind, and caring 💫.
