“Julie was AMAZING! She stayed in our home with our 3 dogs over part of Christmas break and was fantastic. She sent me pics of them every day so I could see how they were doing. She left our house just the way it was when we left and was very responsive every time I contacted her. I do NOT leave my pets with just anyone so I was nervous about using Rover initially but Julie offered the best 1st experience. Would give her 10 starts if it was an option!”


About: From couch-cuddling cats to hay-loving horses, I’ve cared for animals big and small my whole life! I’ve helped diabetic pets, senior pups with arthritis, and even hand-fed guinea pigs and bunnies. Whether it’s belly rubs, insulin shots, or watering your plants while you’re away, I’ve got it covered — with lots of love and care every step of the way. Your pets are family, and I treat them like it! Pet sitting fits perfectly into my schedule! I work part-time at my local H-E-B, so I’m available most mornings before my shift and fully free in the evenings after 5:30 — perfect for dinner-time walks, playtime, or even a late trip to the dog park. On my days off, I love spending time outside and can take your pup for a fun park adventure. My schedule is super flexible, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine to make sure they’re comfortable, happy, and well cared for! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority! Whether I’m in your home or they’re staying with me, I create a calm, secure environment where they can feel relaxed and loved. I stick to your pet’s routine as closely as possible — including feeding times, walks, play, and any medications they may need. I always keep a clean space, never leave pets unattended outdoors, and make sure they have plenty of fresh water, love, and attention. You can count on me to treat your pets like family and your home with the same care and respect I give my own.

“Brittany is awesome! She is incredibly reliable and was very good with both of my dogs. I had asked her at the last minute a while back to stay with my younger dog while I took my senior lady to the very and she was able to come by. She showed up with a notepad and she asked me a bunch of questions about both dogs’ care and was very attentive to all of the details. I just had her take care of my senior dog while I was out of town for a couple days and my young dog was boarding at his daycare and she was incredibly thorough with making sure she knew all of Annie’s needs and she reliably stopped in at all of Annie’s out times. I would definitely recommend her and will be booking her again!”


“We had a great experience hiring Lexi! She was flexible with the days/times we needed to book. She followed instructions for taking care of our dogs, and she communicated often. We would love to hire her again in the future.”


“Katalina was absolutely amazing with our two chihuahuas, Maci and Moose. She stayed in our home for six days and followed every part of our (very detailed) care plan exactly as we asked. Maci is our older dog with some allergy needs and Moose is a 4-month-old puppy who needs close supervision and structure, and Katalina handled both of them with patience, care, and attention. She kept us in the loop with regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We came home to a clean house, a happy puppy, and a very content Maci. It was clear both dogs were well cared for and loved throughout the entire stay. We would absolutely invite Katalina back in the future. She is responsible, trustworthy, and truly cared for our dogs as if they were her own. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and reliable pet sitter.”


“Linda was so great with our dog, Tex. She stayed overnight with him while we were on vacation and took him on walks. She sent us several photos of their time together. I will hire her again!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my deep understanding of pets' individual needs and my calm, patient approach—especially with puppies and senior animals. I have hands-on experience with basic puppy training, including crate training, housebreaking, and leash manners. I also specialize in senior pet care, from administering medications to providing gentle exercise and comfort tailored to their age and health conditions. Pet parents often tell me they feel at ease knowing I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and genuinely invested in their pet’s well-being. I treat every animal like my own—whether it’s keeping a high-energy puppy engaged with structured play or ensuring an older dog feels safe and relaxed in their routine. Additionally, I stay in close communication with owners, sending regular updates and photos, so they always feel connected. My goal is to provide not just care, but peace of mind. I am currently on my summer break so I am free for most of July and August! Once school starts I won’t be able to board many animals because I will be gone but I would still be available to walk animals or go over to a house and feed/let out your pet! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or my client’s home, my priority is always to create a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment tailored to each pet’s needs. In My Home: I offer a calm, pet-friendly space with plenty of room to play and rest. I follow each pet’s routine closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, or medication—so they feel secure and at ease. I provide plenty of mental stimulation through toys, training games, and cuddles, and I make sure they get the right amount of exercise based on their energy level and age. Pets are never left alone for long periods, and I always maintain a clean, supervised environment. In My Client’s Home: I respect the home as much as I do the pet. I maintain the pet’s usual schedule to help minimize stress while their owner is away. That includes sticking to walk times, feeding routines, administering medications, and giving them the attention and affection they’re used to. I also keep the home tidy, water plants if needed, bring in mail, and send regular updates with photos and notes to keep clients fully informed. No matter the location, I treat every pet as if they were my own—with love, patience, and consistent care.

Since I work from home and don’t have to commute, I’m available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care.

I have experience handling pets with medical needs, behavioral quirks, and separation anxiety, so I always pay close attention to body language and individual routines.

My home is free of hazards and is kept tidy and stress-free to create a relaxing space for animals to decompress.

Jailee G.
“As Jailee G.’s father, I’ve had the honor of watching her grow into one of the most compassionate, responsible, and driven young women I know—especially when it comes to animals. Jailee is currently a sophomore at Texas A&M University, pursuing her degree in veterinary medicine, a calling she’s been passionate about since childhood. What sets her apart is not just her love for animals, but her hands-on experience—she’s been working as a veterinary technician assistant and veterinary technician since she was just 14 years old. Now at 19, she brings over five years of real-world experience, along with a deep sense of care and professionalism, to every pet she works with. Whether she’s comforting a nervous pup, caring for a senior dog, or simply making sure a pet gets their daily exercise and affection, Jailee approaches every animal with kindness, patience, and knowledge. I’ve watched her rearrange her own schedule just to make sure a pet wasn’t alone or missed a walk. She has a calm, nurturing presence that animals gravitate toward and a strong work ethic that makes her incredibly dependable. Pet parents can have complete confidence knowing their furry family members are in loving, capable, and experienced hands with Jailee. I couldn’t be prouder to recommend her. — John G. (Proud Dad)”
