About: I've taken care of friend's and family's dogs for years! Natural dog lover at heart but unfortunately haven't been able to adopt a fur-friend of my own. Experience with shy timid dogs that need a calm friendly companion to look after them! I currently WFH so have lots of time to spend with you pups! Available for day care and boarding week days and or weekends depending on need Live without any other pets so your pup will have a calm relaxing environment to stay and roam in (plus all the undivided attention!). Can easily crate your dog too if needed
“Denise was so amazing with Finley. Sometimes he takes a while to warm up to people, and within an hour he was sleeping on her lap! We will definitely be using Denise again-- she has a way with animals.”
“My 8 month pup was happy and loved Kristen’s safe enclosed yard with all the toys and agility games. She is kind and understands dogs. Thank you and we’ll definitely be back!”
About: I grew up in a home filled with dogs and cats of all breeds. My pup Chief has been the center of my world since February 2016. I’ve pet-sat for a pack of chihuahuas, mixed breed dogs, and pitty mixes in the last five years. Growing up, I had two cats of my own that I cherished dearly: Cola and Lucky. I’m studying to get my NNA Licensed Signing Agent Certification. I’m a certified notary and can do both remote and in person work, which gives me the flexibility to stay with your furry friend overnight, or make sure they’re loved on morning and night. I adopted my rat-chi, Chiefy, at 6 weeks old. He’s turning 8 on February 11, 2024 and I trained him myself. So I know the importance of sticking to a routine for a dog of any age. I will do all I can to help your pet feel the love and comfort they deserve while you’re away.
“David was great for daycare with our dog! He responded promptly, took care to understand our dog's needs and was provided us with photos and updates throughout the day. He also provided us with a framed portrait of our dog at the end of the day, which was an awesome gesture. Would highly recommend David for doggy daycare or boarding!”
“Jen was great with my pup. Xena is a sweet and nervous around other dog; Jen was more than accommodating and took her time introducing her to the other dogs. On her second day she was fully part of the pack and I had a great time at puppy land. I would definitely recommend her services 10/10”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a child and cared for our family pup! In the past, I've cared for friends' and family's dogs, from check-ins and walks to overnight stays. I work from home so I have plenty of time to give your dog endless love and cuddles, and take them for long walks. If they enjoy playing with other dogs, I love to make stops at the dog park during our walks. My 3 year old cavapoo loves having friends stay with us, and is the perfect companion for your pup during their stay! My apartment building has a dog park, and I live in a very walkable area, to take your pup on nice long walks.
“Lilly was amazing and extremely accommodating when I had a hard day. She was flexible and took great care of Sammy. He loved staying with her and was so excited to see her. I’ll always be grateful to Lily!”
“Simone was super communicative and easy to work with! This was my first time using Rover and she made it so painless for me! She took pictures and videos of my dog, and when I was running late for pick up she was happy to accommodate me. Will definitely be using her again!!”
About: Hi, I’m Ashley and I’ve been caring for dogs for over 14 years, starting with my two Maltipoos, whom I’ve had since high school. They’re now happily living with my parents, but caring for them from puppies through adulthood taught me a lot about providing consistent, loving care and understanding each dog’s individual personality and needs🐕❤️ Before joining Rover, I also fostered a 3–month-old puppy for two weeks, helping with his daily routine, care, and adjustment while finding him a loving forever home. I love spending time together and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their families are away. I am a housewife so I’ll be spending most of the day with your dogs. I also don’t have children or pets at home, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m available throughout the day and can be flexible with different routines and schedules. I live in a secure apartment building with controlled access and security in the lobby. My balcony is always kept locked, so pets cannot access it. I’ll leave the house to run some errands for few hours, so if your dog uses a crate/kennel when left unattended, please provide one for the stay :)
About: I have a lot of experience with dogs, taking care of them, walking with them and hang out with them! I really love dogs and treat them as part of my family! I work from home so we'll be able to provide plenty of care and attention to your pup. Please let me know if there are additional needs that I should be aware of. I have fenced yard and a very friendly medium size poodle mix. We have a very chill poodle mix in our home named Mixie. If you aren't sure if your dog is friendly , we can absolutely arrange meet and greet and give it a try. If you know your dog is not friendly, then we do need to prioritize our dog wellbeing and will not be able to accept a booking.
About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 8, whether it was my own dog, one in the neighborhood, or in shelters and I love it! I just graduated college and am hoping to do some pet care while I look for a job, because of this my schedule is very open! I have a lot of experience taking care of dogs in my home and in others’ homes. The safety and happiness of a dog in my care will always be my top priority, and I know that looks a little different for each dog parent!

“Very happy with the service that Cortney provided. She was attentive to my dog Kira. She provided a description of her visit and pictures. I would happily book with her again.”
“As usual, Brandi went above and beyond with Stevie Ray. She took him to a new park today where he got to explore and interact with other dogs. We didn’t ask her to deviate from his normal route, she just took him on an adventure which we so appreciate!!! I can’t say enough great things about Brandi!!! Stevie Ray just loves her and is always so happy to see her.”
About: I’ve always grown up with dogs, worked at a vet clinic when I was younger, and became a doggie foster as an adult. I have experience caring for senior pups as well. I'll treat your pup as a loved family member. Rest assured, your fur baby will be in good hands. I am mostly a stay a home mom. I take my dog to the dog park daily, and when the weather is nice we will walk Town Lake. I have cameras in my home and on the property. If I am not home I can take a look at how the dogs are doing. I also have a fenced in yard.
About: I know it's hard to leave your pets at home while you're away so I build TRUST with my clients from the start. Experience w/ Cats, dogs bunnies, hamsters, birds, fish.I currently have two cats of my own that are my children & our German shepherd sadly passed away last year- but I'm good with big dogs that are trained well! I am an entrepreneur, so I have a flexible work schedule and can tend to your pets almost any time of day, with my requested booking notice. I am available for drop in visits or overnight stays in your home. I'm happy to make sure your home is safe, your plants are watered, etc. in addition to taking care of your fur-child! I have my own means of transportation to get to your place, no problem-o! I currently cannot take care of any pet in my own home.
About: I've been taking care of pets since I was a young child. Always having dogs and cats of my own to care for, my friends and family have always relied on me to sit their fur babies when they are away. Recently I pet sat for a litter of puppies and a momma doggie. I had to make specialty food gruel for the puppies and monitor momma to make sure she was healthy. I helped the puppies nurse and always made sure they had fresh bedding (since they poop all over). I also had to care for another male dog in the same house and make sure he was kept away from the room that the momma and puppies were in. It was such an amazing experience and I would love to do it again. I also volunteer at the Austin Animal Shelter (Austin Pets Alive), where I work in the parvovirus unit working with extremely sick puppies. I administer oral medication, clean up their poop, do daily feedings and have experinece in IV treatments. I also volunteer in the cat unit helping sick and injured cat rehabilitate giving oral and IV medication, cleaning wounds and feedings. My belated kitty, Morrisis, was a senior cat, who in his later years, became paralyzed from the waist down. I did daily physical therapy with him, built him specialized litter boxes and a set of wheels to get around with. I also had to clean his wounds and poop off of his rear end, since he no longer had control of his bladder. I administered CBD to help with pain management. There is a special place in my heart for sick animals and I give them just as much love as every animal deserves, which is all of my love. I my free time, I foster stray cats in my neighborhood, taking them to their first vet appointments, getting shots and managing any sickness they may have. I foster them myself until I can find a suitable forever home for them. My work schedule is typically 10am-3-30pm. This allows me to drop in for visits and walks before my full time job, as well as multiple times afterwards. On my days off I am more than happy to house sit, or take care of your fur babies in your house for a couple days. I will post my schedule 2 weeks in advance. When I am in my clients home, I allow supervised playtime outside and will keep your pup entertained. In the heat of Texas summers I will minimize outside play time and play with your pup more inside so they do not get over heated, unless you request otherwise. I do multi-daily walks around the neighborhood to stretch your pups legs. I keep a close inventory on any medications the animal may have and stick to the correct time for administering medication/ wound treatment. Meal time is usually on a schedule, unless you free feed, and I will always make sure there is cold fresh water available for your fur babies (cats and dogs alike). For kitties, I will engage them in playtime and try to get out their zoomies so they do not tear up furniture, unless they are sick or injured.
About: I’ve always loved animals and currently care for one cat and a Rottweiler/Shepherd mix. With my dog, I’ve worked with professional trainers to reinforce positive behavior, structure, and consistent routines. This experience has helped me become comfortable handling dogs of different sizes, energy levels, and personalities. I work a 9–5 job from home, which gives me flexibility throughout the day to care for pets. I’m also an early riser, so I’m available for morning visits, midday check-ins, and evening care. With my schedule, I’m able to provide consistent attention and make sure pets stay on their normal routine. If possible, I ask for 1–2 days’ notice so I can block my calendar and give your pet the time and care they deserve. I’m always happy to help ensure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. When caring for pets in their home, my priority is always their safety, comfort, and routine. I make sure dogs are always securely leashed during walks and do not allow off-leash play unless the owner has specifically approved it or we are in a fully enclosed, safe area. During walks, I’m very mindful of safety and surroundings. I keep the dog positioned on the inside of the sidewalk while I walk on the outside, creating a protective barrier between them and the street or passing distractions. I also make sure to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—whether that’s feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, or simply giving them companionship. My goal is to make pets feel relaxed, secure, and well cared for while you’re away
About: I’ve always been the go-to for my friends dog & Kittie watch so I want to extend my help and love. I have experience with APA dog walking, local neighbors dogs and drop in’s for kittens whose owners are out of town! I’m an athlete so can provide high energy care. I’m a young professional who is on PTO through the summer months. I will be working remote from home come August so is flexible to help your needs! I can spend as much as an hour with you early mornings and evenings. I have summer off remotely so I am available anytime! I’m an early riser so love a good sunrise walk. Happy to work around your schedule I have 2 cats of my own and have fostered through APA. I have a safe house with a small patio for sunshine and play
About: I’ve spent years around pets and genuinely enjoy taking care of them. I grew up with 2 massive English Mastiffs, lazy cats and a chihuahua so I can handle anything. Whether it’s walks, feeding, or just keeping them company, I make sure they feel comfortable and happy. I’m patient, reliable, and good at reading what each pet needs. You’ll always get updates so you know your pet is in good hands. I’m a full time student with a flexible schedule, so I’m available throughout the day for reliable and consistent pet care. Whether your pet needs midday visits, regular walks, or extended attention, I can easily work around their routine to keep them cared for. I treat your home and your pet with respect. I follow your pet’s routine, provide regular walks, feeding, and attention, and make sure they feel comfortable and safe while you’re away.
About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. I had the joy of caring for my dog for 14 wonderful years—he was truly family and taught me so much about love and responsibility. I also cared for my cat for 3 years, and though he's not living with me now, I still adore him and visit him often. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of both dogs and cats, and I’ll treat your pet with the same care, patience, and affection I gave my own. I a full-time time student, but pet care fits perfectly into my mornings, evenings, and weekends. I’m committed to making time for the pets I care for, whether it’s early morning feedings, evening walks, or weekend visits. Your pet’s well-being is a priority, and I’ll make sure they get the attention and love they need when you're away. I believe pets feel safest and most comfortable in their own environment, which is why I provide care in your home—not mine. This helps reduce stress for your pet and keeps their routine as normal as possible. I always respect your space, follow your instructions closely, and treat your home with the same care I would my own. I’m also happy to send regular photo updates and check-ins so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I'm hoping to find a sweet dog that is looking for a sweet girl to visit and walk with daily. If that's your dog, please send them my way. My goal is to make you and your pet feel comfortable while you're away. I'm extremely responsible, professional, and respectful of your home and privacy, not to mention kind of a clean freak. Your dog will love all the attention they receive while we relax, watch Netflix, and cuddle. Did I mention the hundreds of belly rubs they'll get while I'm there. That's included at no additional cost. What started out as taking care of friends and family's pets has turned into a genuine love for this business. I love each and every pet I care for and have formed special bonds with them all. I personally don't have pets which allows me the flexibility to care for yours, as well as fill my life with great joy getting to know them. I hope to meet your sweet loved ones and continue to have the best job in the world. I walk dogs daily and have a set schedule with them. I'm looking to add more dogs to my rotation between the hours of 10 and 5, Monday thru Friday. I have stayed in many homes without incident and pride myself in the respect I show to your possessions. I will take care of your pets in the comfort of their own home and surroundings to put them at ease while their family is away.
