House Sitting in Wharton

“Jennifer was so awesome with our dog Pocus. She cuddled with him and played with him and did a little doggy photo shoot. She sent us pictures of him every day. I highly recommend Jennifer.”

“10/10 would recommend! Jessica and Guillermo were so amazing at taking care of Zip. Zip is a reactive dog and we were quite anxious leaving him with a sitter for the first time. Jessica made us feel so comfortable for the entire week she stayed with Zip. She was communicative and sent lots of pictures that made us know he was in great care. She respected all the instructions we gave for taking Zip on walks and was very comforting knowing we were a little nervous to leave him. We had some travel delays getting home and Jessica made accommodation to stay extra time so we didn’t have to worry about Zip. Jessica and Guillermo stayed at our apartment for the week as well and were incredible guest. They were clean and gracious and even cleaned up before leaving. Safe to say Zip has new best friends and we will absolutely be booking again!”

“Antonia was the absolute best!! We were so happy with her watching our fur babies! She was so informative and kept us updated throughout her stay, which we really appreciated. We had never left our dogs with everyone and this being our first time was an absolute dream. She left our house neat, clean and was so conscientious!! Can't thank her enough!!!”

About: I grew up on a farm and have experience caring for animals of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I’m comfortable working with high-energy pets, shy animals, seniors, and those with special needs who require extra patience and attention. I understand that every animal has a different personality and routine, and I always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. Whether your pet needs calm, dependable care or lots of playtime and activity, I’m happy to provide a fun, loving, and attentive experience. I work three days a week and have four days completely off, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to dedicate to pet care. On my days off, I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and lots of playtime and attention. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, especially high-energy pets who need extra exercise and engagement. I’m also comfortable maintaining routines and giving pets the patience and consistency they need to feel comfortable and cared for. I provide a calm, safe, and attentive environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. Growing up on a farm taught me how to read animal behavior, handle different temperaments, and stay patient in new situations. I’m comfortable caring for energetic pets, seniors, and animals with special needs. I always follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and owner preferences closely. In a client’s home, I prioritize cleanliness, supervision, safety, and making sure each pet feels loved and stress-free.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 12 and I really love being around animals. Friends, neighbors, and family trust me to feed, walk, play with, and watch their pets when they’re away.

“Rebecca was absolutely fantastic with our fur babies! We have a cat and an older dog with digestive issues that requires specific care. Usually, we travel with our pets, but unfortunately, this time, we couldn’t. I’m a nervous wreck when I leave them with anyone else because of past experiences and illnesses that have occurred in my absence. Before booking, Rebecca was completely transparent about any prior commitments that might take her away from our home for a few hours. She wanted to ensure that this would still be a good fit for our dog’s well-being. I really appreciated that Rebecca was incredibly kind and attuned to the needs of our animals. She handled them with the utmost patience and understanding. I believe her to be incredibly trustworthy, and both our dog and cat absolutely adored her. I received countless photos, videos, and updates of our dog doing her happy dance, taking naps, and snuggling up on the couch with Rebecca. One day our dog had an upset stomach which is always a cause for concern with her chronic health issues, and Rebecca went above and beyond to ensure that she did everything possible to care for her properly. She kept me fully in the loop and even offered to cook rice and broth for her in case she needed to settle her stomach. I mentioned that sweet potato usually helps her eat again if needed, and Rebecca offered to drive and pick one up so that she could ensure it was a good quality for my dog, rather than me having one delivered to the house: Thankfully my dog finally decided to eat her food and got better in the evening but like I said, she went above and beyond. I would/will hire Rebecca again and entrust her with our fur babies without hesitation. She was simply phenomenal and is a pet owner’s dream come true. Rebecca, Thank you so much for taking such excellent care of our fur babies!”

About: I have been a veterinary technician for the last 19 years. I have spent the majority of that time working at a small animal practice, but also worked at an emergency and specialty practice for 4 years during that time as well. During my career, I have dealt with numerous c-sections, geriatric, diabetic, and renal patients. Meaning that, injections, SQ fluid, oral meds, etc, are not a problem.. I have also done pet sitting on the side for many years during this time as well. I have always had a love for animals. I currently own a 9 year old mixed breed dog, as well as a cat, and chinchilla. I have had many pocket pets over the years as well. I currently work full time, overnights only, on the front end of the week. I plan accordingly, to make sure the pets needs are met before and after work shift, and spoil them extra on the days I’m off. I adjust to whatever needs the pet requires, and make our schedules work in sync so that there are no issues with bathroom breaks, or feeding/medications.

“Christine was great watching our dog, Ozzy! Ozzy can have stranger danger and Christine did a great job managing this. He was so well taken care of and so was our apartment. I highly recommend Christine.”

Jennifer R.

“Trustworthy and professional dog sitter. She provided regular updates with photos, maintained a clean environment, and followed all care instructions. It's evident she genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. Will definitely book again!"”

“I reached out to Veronica to spend the night when I was out of town. I felt comfortable leaving my pets and my apartment with Veronica. She was reliable and knowledgeable.”

“Lauren did a fantastic job. She was wonderful with my dog and took her on many walks. She went above and beyond when my cats knocked over a plant and the pot broke. Thanks Lauren”

About: I have over 10 years caring for pets. I provide animals with what they need and make sure they feel comfortable. I care deeply about animals and am passionate about supporting them. Boarding— i have experience caring for dogs overnight in others homes and in mine. I provide a space in my home where the dog can sleep. I have a big yard and areas where the dogs can play. I can help administer medications, provide food and water, and give the dogs necessary attention and love. Walking— i have experience taking dogs on 30 min walks throughout the day.i can walk multiple dogs at a time. I have reliable transportation and a flexible schedule. Id love to connect if you are interested in learning more. I take online grad school classes, so I’m usually around the home hanging out with them. I feed them in the morning play with them during the day and get lots of love and attention. I have a pretty big apartment where I can take care of cats and small dogs. my backyard is not fenced in, but I can keep the dog on a leash.

About: With over 8 years of experience as a veterinary technician, I bring calm, capable, and reliable care to every pet I look after. I’m fully comfortable with medication administration, monitoring special conditions, and supporting pets with special needs who may require extra attention or patience. I treat every animal like my own, whether they’re a dog who loves playtime or a cat who needs a gentle, understanding approach. I’m extremely comfortable with both cats and dogs, including seniors, shy personalities, and pets who need medical or behavioral support. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always come first with me. My schedule is very open, as I’m currently doing online school and not working outside the home. This allows me to be flexible and work around your pet’s routine as much as possible. The only time I’m unavailable each day is during my lunch break from 12:30–2:00 PM, when I spend time with my husband. Outside of that window, I’m fully available for drop‑ins, walks, and pet care. I’m happy to adjust to your pet’s needs and create a schedule that works best for them. Whether you need consistent daily visits or occasional help, I’ll do my best to accommodate you. I do take Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s Day off, but I’m available throughout the rest of the year. Your pets’ comfort and routine matter to me, and I’m here to make things as smooth and stress‑free as possible. I do not bring pets into my home, as I believe most animals feel safest and happiest in their own familiar environment. Keeping your pet in their routine reduces stress, prevents confusion, and allows me to give care that feels natural and comfortable for them. It also ensures I don’t disrupt the established routines of my own cats, who thrive on structure. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your instructions closely and treat your space with the utmost respect. Every home and every pet is different, and I take the time to understand what your pet needs to feel secure — whether that’s sticking to a feeding schedule, maintaining a quiet environment, or following specific medical or behavioral guidelines. My goal is always to create a safe, calm, and trustworthy experience for both you and your pets. Your home and your animals are cared for with the same attention and respect I give my own.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes for years, both personally and professionally. I previously worked in a grooming salon where I regularly handled large and giant breeds, helped with bathing and nail trims, and worked with dogs with different temperaments and energy levels. Friends and family have also relied on me to feed, walk, play with, and check in on their pets over the years. I understand how important it is to have someone patient, reliable, and attentive caring for your pet, and I always try to make animals feel safe and comfortable with me. I currently have a flexible schedule and make pet care a priority in my routine. I’m available for daytime, evening, and weekend care depending on the booking. I always try to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and check-ins throughout the day. I always do my best to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own environment. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, medications, energy levels, and body language so pets can stay as stress-free as possible while you’re away. I also have experience working with dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and energy levels through grooming salon work and personal pet care.

“Christina came to pet sit on fairly short notice but was up to speed very quickly on care for both my senior dog and cat. She was very professional, reliable, responsible and communicated every day with me sending texts and photos updating me on my pets welfare. I was able to trust her and enjoy my trip away worry free. I will have her back again very soon as it was a great experience for myself and my pets!”

DARIA M.

“I highly recommend Alexyss! I am so glad I was able to find a sitter who loves my dog as much as I do. She has great experience , especially with bully breeds which left me at ease when going away! She is kind and attentive, and overall just loves animals! I am so grateful to have found her as a sitter!”

Jaime S.

“Annett was amazing and took such good care of our 2 boys while we were away. She sent videos and pics during her stay which was awesome too. I plan to have Annett come again.”

About: New to Rover, but not to pets! See my background in professional pet care below! I bring over three years of professional experience from multiple dog boarding and daycare facilities, in addition to living with my own furry family members since childhood. This background gives me both the technical skills to handle logistics - from managing high-energy playgroups to following strict feeding, and cleaning protocols - and the genuine heart to treat every guest like one of my own. My time at D.A.R.G. (Domestic Animal Rescue Group) in South Africa further sharpened my ability to connect with animals from all walks of life. Special Skills: Medical & Senior Care: I am comfortable and experienced in administering medications. Behavioral Awareness: Having worked with challenging temperaments and diverse energy levels, I know how to read body language and provide the right environment for shy, reactive, or high-energy pets. Cat Specialist: I understand that cats are unique. I approach them with patience and respect - always on their terms - ensuring they feel secure in their own space. Training Basics: I can reinforce basic commands and maintain the structure you’ve already established for your pet. ✨ Why Pet Owners Choose Me • Experienced with both dogs and cats • Comfortable with a wide range of personalities and behaviors • Patient and attentive - great with shy, energetic, or more sensitive pets • Able to administer medications if needed • Reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented • You’ll always receive updates and photos! 📸 Pet care is a consistent part of my daily life. Whether I’m caring for my own pets or helping out friends, I prioritize routine and reliability. My current schedule allows me the flexibility to provide dedicated check-ins, walks, and attentive overnight care. Because I’m used to the fast-paced environment of professional daycares, I’m excellent at time management and ensuring every "potty break" and meal happens right on time. My priority is making sure your pet feels secure and loved while you’re away. When I’m in your home, I treat it with the same respect I show your pets. My Safety Protocol: Detailed Updates: You’ll receive regular updates with photos and videos so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. Routine-Focused: I mirror your pet's existing schedule to minimize any "vacation anxiety." Attentive & Alert: My background in professional boarding has trained me to be hyper-aware of environmental hazards and subtle changes in a pet's behavior or health. Calm Presence: I provide a peaceful environment for more sensitive animals while offering fun, active engagement for those who need to burn off energy.

“Jordyn did a great job caring for my westie in my home while I was away for a week. She sent updates and pictures. He was well cared for. When I returned home, Jordyn made sure everything was in perfect order! Linus misses her already! We’ll be calling Jordyn again! I highly recommend her!”
