“I am so grateful for Diana's excellent care of my three cats while I am away. It is such a relief to know they are in good hands. I love the updates and appreciate her attention to detail, letting me know when my goopy-eyed cat needed medicine and managing to apply said medicine. Thank you, Diana!”

About: -Experience with puppies (care & training) -Owner of a senior dog -Patient and kind to all animals no matter the breed, shape, or size -Experience with high energy breeds I am currently working full time throughout the week, so pet care works for me after 5pm. I will be available anytime throughout the weekend. I am familiar with safely and respectfully crating pets and have done so with my own dogs. I make sure the area is clean and comfortable especially if the pet will be left for long periods of time.
“Jordan went above and beyond to make our cats and parrots comfortable. It was such a relief to know someone was looking in on them and giving them some attention while we were gone!”

“This is the third time booking with Mell. She has been wonderful. She communicates and keeps you updated on your furry ones. She even put a large package inside our home. Mell remembers how to care for and accommodate your babies.”

“We had a lovely experience booking Andrea. We got lots of updates, pictures, and videos of our kitties. Andrea was very thoughtful and gave our cat his medicine even when we were about to be home so we had one less thing to do after a hectic day. I would definitely book again if our cats needed watching ☺️”
About: Hey there! I’m Rae—a former helicopter pilot and current MBA student with a deep love for animals of all kinds. I live on a small homestead with my own animals, so I’m no stranger to early mornings, work on the farm, and energetic dog walks. I offer: Daily walks & potty breaks Drop-in visits My military background means I’m dependable and detail-oriented. I also have two toddlers at home, so I have stamina and patience. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your animals like their own—with care, structure, and a lot of love—I’m your girl. I’m a stay-at-home mom and MBA student. This makes my schedule fairly flexible. I have availability in the mornings and early afternoons while my kids are in childcare. I follow your pet’s routines closely—whether that includes feeding, medications, walks, or just companionship. I treat your home with the same respect I’d want for my own, and I follow all instructions carefully to ensure your space stays just as you left it.
“I appreciate the help I have received since July 2025 with the drop ins for my fur babies to go potty. With out Tinisha's acceptance I would not have been able to start my new job. Lots of hugs and thank you!”

“Samantha was awesome! She took great care of our kitten (Neko) and our turtle (Viking) and kept us updated with cute pictures and videos. Came back to happy pets, clean house and peace of mind knowing that they were taken care of. Neko demands a lot of attention and Samantha spent time playing with him and letting him "help" her with things. Thank you Samantha.”

“Kairi was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of my cats…attentive, patient, and genuinely loving the whole time. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Kairi has such a kind, gentle energy and was so easy to communicate with…I could tell right away she truly cares. Leaving your home and animals with someone new can be nerve-wracking, but I instantly felt confident they were in great hands. She went above and beyond in every way, and I’d book her again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!”

About: I have taken care of cats since I was a child and dogs since early adulthood I know that our four-legged friends are family and treat them with the caring kindness that they deserve. And we even have backyard chickens now, too! I'm working part-time from home and have the freedom to do house calls and walks throughout the day. Generally Monday, Wednesday, Friday I'm free from 7:30am until 6pm. Tuesday and Thursday I'm available from 10am to 6pm. I pay close attention to my pets and make sure to give them what they like. I'll do the same for yours, following any guidelines you have and make sure that they are well looked after when they are in my care.
About: When I think about the word happy my brain thinks of animals, I have worked on farms for years. Taking care of and tending to horses, sheep, donkeys, ducks, cats, dogs, etc. I am currently working as a supervisor at a doggy day camp full time but am looking to make a little extra income to help support me and my son. I am eager to please, and very willing to tend to any and all of your pets needs. I am currently enrolled school to become a vet technician and felt like rover would be a great way to help tie up some of the loose ends my family is facing financially. I couldn't imagine a better way than assisting the loved ones of others. Happy pets make a happy home and I'd love to gice my contribution!!! I work as a supervisor for a doggy day care full time. We are trained to handle many situations. I have had pets since a young child. Ive had senior pets, exotic pets, your traditional pets. All who recieve different types of care. Pet care is the lifestyle I chose. I have reliable transportation, fur bay friends who can tag along and lots of experience to share. I have been trained to watch for warning signs of bloating, iver heating and an aware of how to perform cpr on a pet.
“Lillian was fantastic! She was an excellent fit for us, and extremely flexible! She took care of our pets like they were her own. We will definitely use her again! Too bad we can’t give her 10 stars!!!”


“Cheyenne was amazing with my three quirky cats and was able to meet their needs and on such short notice. I was very pleased that they had a great experience. Thank you so much.”

About: I've been boarding, grooming, walking, and training dogs for about 15 years. I used to show AKC and obedience training. Also have been a foster home for countless dogs and cats/kittens! I'm currently a stay at home wife with availability all day! Whether it's a need for frequent potty breaks, walks, play time or all day cuddles! I have about a half acre of fenced in, well maintained yard for your fur baby to run and play! We have splash pools, toys, and a large patio to relax. Indoors, I have crates with cozy beds for comfort. I have two dogs and two cats who are all used having foster dogs and cats rotating through our home!
About: I've owned and cared for an array of animals ever since I was small - primarily consisting of both dogs and cats. Instead of cartoons, I watched the animal planet channel. The real proof is in the pudding, however; not one of any of my friend's cats and dogs dislike me, regardless of temperament. My last job was seasonal and I'm in-between plans - giving me lots of time and flexibility for pet-sitting. Currently, I can do every day of the week, although a couple days may be taken up by something else soon. If I need to house/pet-sit for a week or longer, I can clear my schedule. I don't personally have a pet (yet) but my roommate has a kitty named Pumpkin. She takes good care of him but on the days when she's on the road, I'm responsible for his three meals, litter, and playing with him. He wakes me up at around 6 in the morning to eat, with a cuddle session afterwards. In the middle of cleaning my room or working on my laptop is usually a play break which lasts until he's uninterested.
About: I’ve had the pleasure of taking care of all kinds of animals. Families and friends even neighbors dogs, cats, turtles, hamsters, bunnies you name it. I live in Jarrell but work in north Austin. I’m super flexible I can fit it in before and after work on my lunch break, on the weekends. I’m happy to do drop ins or pet sitting at your home, I’d prefer not to pet sit at my own home it’s chaotic enough with my 2 toddlers but I do have a fenced yard and would be open to it if the animals were good around kids!
