“Nandini is great! She is super helpful, communicative, and available even with last-minute requests. More importantly, my pup loves her! I would recommend her any day!!”


“Ellie was awesome! I was visiting Houston for a medical appointment and she was super kind and flexible. She walked my dog a ton and tired him out just like I asked for! She’s great.”
About: Hi there! I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 15 years. Being around animals makes me happy, so your pets are in good hands. We will both have a fun time! I have a pretty flexible schedule. I’ve worked with all kinds of personalities and needs - playful puppies, reactive dogs who need extra patience, big gentle giants, our tripod babies, and sweet seniors. You name it! I work from home so my babies are always with me! My schedule is pretty lenient so often times we’re playing, going on walks, or cuddling! I am very considerate of other people’s pets and home and will treat them as my own. I’ll make sure are comfortable and getting lots of love and belly rubs!
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, from farm animals and barn cats to household pets. I’m trusted by family and friends to pet sit dogs, cats, and birds, and I focus on keeping pets happy, safe, and consistent with their routines. I also have experience as a veterinary assistant/technician, with skills in animal handling, basic medical care, and recognizing signs of illness—so you can feel confident your pet is in knowledgeable, attentive hands. I just moved across the country, and I am fully free to take care of your pets until I find a job in the veterinary care industry. I have excellent time management skills, and I am willing to work with your pet's schedules and needs and adjust my own plans as needed. I am willing to adapt to you and your pet's routine and needs to keep them happy and relaxed during the duration of the sitting.
“Anna is great! I trust her with my baby and will even take super late requests. If you cannot be home and need your little one to be taken for a walk, I would pick her over anyone in the area.”


About: I was born and raised in Houston and have been sitting for family, friends, and other clients since I was a teenager. I’m used to working with a broad spectrum of dog breeds + dogs of all ages (not a stranger to doggy diapers and suspenders). I grew up with a pug named Chestnut who passed last year and he had such a big personality and spirit, and was a big part of my childhood. He is always in my heart and when I sit for other dogs, I give them all my love and care for them to the best of my ability 🤍! I pay close attention to a dog’s behavior and their body language signaling. It is important for their health, comfort, and safety. I recently graduated from Texas A&M and I am freelancing so I will have plenty of time for all your dog’s needs and playtime! My days usually begin at 8:30am. In my free time I do yoga/meditate, play guitar, and make art! I need to be briefed on a dog’s routine and usual behaviors before pet sitting at a client’s house. I like to have initial meetings while the owner is present to establish a relationship with the dog in a comfortable environment for them. During drop-ins and house sitting days, I am only responsible for the dog and no other individuals in the house. I am not a babysitter for clients that have not explicitly reached out to me for that reason. I am also not responsible for 24-hour surveillance of your property during house-sitting as I would be living there as if it was my house. I am always respectful of my surroundings and leave the house like I found it.
About: Hi! I’m Heaven! I have 4+ years of pet care experience. Throughout college, I would pet sit for family, friends, and friends who of friends who needed affordable pet care; feeding, walking, medicating, and exercising, including older puppies and senior dogs, cats, and reptiles. Meet & greets were and are mandatory with new clients. I was also a dog walker for the Franklin County Dog Shelter as well as for a small company, Pet Sitting by Tisha in Ohio before moving to Texas in 2022. I am currently a full-time employee. My current schedule is Sunday, Tuesday, and Wednesday from 7a-3:30p, Monday 7a-6:30p (which I can request to be a normal shift if necessary), and Thursday 7a-12:30p. My off days are Fridays and Saturdays. I can provide boarding or house sitting care on any day of the week as long as your pup is okay to wait longer periods between potty breaks. On any day of the week if afternoon or evening drop in care is needed, such as walking or feeding/medicating, I am able and willing to do that. I currently live in an apartment with a bark park. I would take the pups on a morning walk, midday/afternoon trip to the park on grounds, and an evening walk and potty break. Feeding/medicating would occur on the schedule you provide me with for your pup.
“We had our first pet-parent meeting last week and I couldn't be happier. Jasnah's progress is amazing and I can't wait to continue with Dani's training program for my puppy.”

“Alejandra was great! We have a puppy who needs patience with her walks as she’s interested in every smell. Alejandra gave Rosie time and was allowed her to walk at her own pace.”

“When she is available, Graciela is an awesome dog walker! Follows instructions, sends a very detailed and cute “report card” from each walk. She is very communicative of any concerns. Use her M- Fri and my pup and I are very appreciative.”

“Bailee has been wonderful to my two senior dogs! She is professional, kind, and very communicative about my pets. It gives me peace of mind knowing that my boys are in such good hands. I 100% recommend Bailee to anyone looking for experienced, reliable, and compassionate pet care!”

About: I’ve grown up with small and medium sized dogs that i loved taking care of from puppy to old age. I’ve taken care of my neighbors and friends dogs/cats for a couple years. I currently own a cat, and I know how to administer oral medication to cats and dogs if needed. I love animals and understand the care and trust you need to put into those who care for your pets. Im currently a college student with mostly online classes so I have lots a time to play and cuddle with your pets! I’m able to pet sit and do overnight stays on weekends and most weekdays.

“Olivia is awesome! Extremely communicative and sent me photos during both walks. Went above and beyond to make sure any requests I might have had were taken care of. Would highly, highly recommend!”

“Melissa is a dog whisperer for sure! Bruce loved her from the first day and she keeps him moving for a full hour. She also walked him in the rain amd cold- she is a real trooper! ?”

“Brenna was awesome! She was very communicative to let a nervous dog dad know exactly how my pup was doing, took great care of my dog, and made me feel much more at ease while I was at work. We will be having her come back for sure! Thanks again, Brenna!”

About: I've fostered many different breeds throughout the years. Spend weeks with eachone to try to find their perfect fit. I've also been trained to work with dogs that have health issues and the proper way to give meds. I take pride in being able to adjust myself to your pets personality. I have a full time pets hotel job I work 8hr shifts, with two days off. my schedule is pretty consistent to keep a routine. I love my job and I love being able to give a pet the attention they need to remain happy and calm while away from their pet parents. I have three lovely indoor cats who are energetic. Unfortunately I wouldn't not be able to bring your pet on my home for this reason.
About: He convivido con perros desde que nací. Me apasionan las razas pequeñas, especialmente los yorkis. trabajé en LA RED DE APOYO CANINO, sin fines de lucro. Tengo disponibilidad de tiempo, para realizar paseos de media hora. Me avisan con un día de anticipación, y con gusto busco al consentido de la casa. Lo primero es conversar sobre las costumbres del peludito, para poder atenderlos como se debe. Comida, medicamento, enfermedades, para estar muy bien informada. Ellos no hablan.💚 Y lo más importante, conocer su carácter. Respetar su manera de recibir afecto. Las mascotas, saben pedir y poner límites. Y no exponerlos a situación que puedan alterarlo o asustarlo. Estar atento todo el tiempo y reportar a su dueño constantemente, sobre su perro. Tratarlos muy bien, para ser personal de confianza y que me vuelvan a contactar, a través de este medio.
West University Place dog parents share their Rover experiences
Terra has been amazing! I found her last minute before a trip and she made the whole experience just so easy! I knew Pearl loved hanging out with her and I wasn’t worried about leaving my dog with a stranger! I’m very grateful! She was on time, prompt, took care of Pearl’s medication too! She sent great updates too! I highly recommend Terra!

Annabella was a fantastic dog walker! She was very communicative throughout the entire process and always kept me updated. I loved the photos she took—they really showed how much care and attention she gives. She was reliable, friendly, and it’s clear she genuinely enjoys spending time with pets. I felt totally comfortable knowing my dog was in great hands. I would absolutely recommend Annabella and would happily book her again!

I couldn't be happier with the care Peanut received from Chloe! From the very first meeting, she bonded with Peanut immediately, which put my mind right at ease. Her communication is top-notch; I received timely updates and felt completely informed throughout the entire process. Peanut clearly got a fantastic workout and came home happy and well-exercised. If you’re looking for someone reliable who truly connects with animals, I highly recommend her!
I couldn’t be happier with the care and attention my dog received from Jessica. She was very polite, compassionate, and very good with Maxwell. I highly recommend her. She brought treats for him which was very nice of her. I will book with her again in the near future.

Best rover I’ve ever had and I’ve had quite a few. She is polite, kind, helpful, and always available last minute when I’ve needed help. My dog loves her and I really appreciated that she was so active and wanted to make sure he got as much exercise as possible during their short time. Would recommend to everyone!
