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.
About: I have experience in taking care of many types of animals including livestock! Not only am I familiar with horses and chickens, I have also been responsible for tending to the medical needs of pets. These medical needs include receiving oral medication, topical treatments, protective wrappings, and assistance with mobility. Besides at-home care, I enjoy dog walking and regularly walk my own dog two miles. Currently, I am working as an intern so weekends and afternoons on weekdays work best. By Mid-August, I will be a student in College Station and will update accordingly. I intend to care for pets by the instructions specified by the client. Your pets are your family, so their safety and health are my priority.
“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.”
“Thien was highly professional and just a pleasure to deal with: always prompt in response, in constant communication with us, always providing lots of updates about our dog. Thank you, Thien, for providing such a good care of our dog! We hope to use his help again.”
About: I've been caring for all kinds of animals my whole life, growing up in a home full of pets and regularly helping friends and neighbors with theirs, I've developed a deep understanding of different animals needs, behaviors and quirks. I provide a calm, loving presence and stick to routines to help your pets feel safe and happy while you're away. My schedule is very flexible as I am currently working as a self employed freelancer so I am able to move things around a lot. I am also a responsible and respectful house sitter, you can trust that your home will be cared for just as carefully as your pets.
About: I’ve grown up around pets from birth to current, and have been responsible enough to take care of them since I was about 6. From dogs to cats to fish to tortoise. Currently transitioning after graduating high school, I have an open schedule for actively being responsible and reliable for dog walking as well as other dog needs. I have a fenced in yard at my personal home for my happy free roaming tortoise, Beans. As well as a healthy senior cat, Mr.Buttons.
About: While I haven’t worked as a paid sitter before, I’ve been caring for pets my whole life—both my own and those of friends, neighbors, and family. I’ve gained over 10 years of hands-on experience with dogs, cats, and even chickens, and I approach each pet with the same love and attention I give my own. I currently have two pups back home (a spunky Boston Terrier and a loyal Boxer), so I’m no stranger to high-energy personalities! I’m a student at Texas A&M University going into my senior year, and with a light class schedule these next few semesters, I have plenty of time and flexibility to dedicate to caring for pets. I will have time for daily walks as well as morning, afternoon, and/or evening feeding. I miss my pets that are back home in Austin very much, and I’m hoping that helping take care of some furry friends in the College Station area will help fill the pet-shaped void while I’m away from mine. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I make sure to respect their routine, space, and specific care instructions. I know how important consistency is for pets, so I do my best to match their normal schedule—whether that’s feeding times, walks, playtime, or quiet cuddles. I keep things clean, calm, and comforting so they feel safe while their owner is away. If a pet needs to stay with me for a few hours during the day, I have a spacious, fully fenced-in backyard where they can run around and get some fresh air. I always supervise outdoor time and make sure they stay safe, happy, and entertained.

About: I’ve had my own dog since I was 12! Growing up my parents have always had 5 plus dogs and our cat Tom. Since moving away I’ve missed the affection from my pets so with the help of rover I not only get the pet love I am looking for but also side money for college! I am currently a student at the Texas A&M University so some days I’m completely free and other days I have hours in between my classes so with the help of Rover I can easily go walk/ feed or play with your dog all while doing school. I am currently a Junior at Texas A&M with two beautiful dogs. Gus my 8 year old is a childhood dachshund and Rowdy is my 6 month old rescue. With that being said I know a lot about caring for puppies to seniors. To ensure you that I am qualified for the job I can provide the ability to go to my clients house feed, walk, play and really do whatever the client wants for the dog/cat or any other animals!
About: Hi, I'm Mykalee! With a passion for pets and years of dedicated pet-sitting experience, I always aim to go the extra mile to ensure your furry companions are safe, happy and loved in your absence. I grew up with dogs in my home which is where my love of animals started. Since, then I have had experience taking care of senior dogs, puppies, cats, horses, birds, hamsters, and bunnies. I believe that every pet is unique, with their own special needs and preferences. When you entrust me with the care of your beloved animals, you can expect a tailored approach that caters to their individual requirements. Whether it's long walks, playtime, cuddles, or a comforting presence, I adapt to your pets' needs. I understand the significance of maintaining your pet's routines, ensuring they experience as little disruption as possible while you're away. I am a student working on my graduate degree. Most of my classes are online and I only have to work 3 days a week (typically Monday-Wednesday from 8:00 am-3:00 pm) I am available in the evenings for drop-in visits, walks, or could stay overnight. Thursday-Sundays are very open for me so I can be flexible to fit your needs. As a pet sitter who genuinely cares, I take pride in creating a warm, safe, and loving environment for your pets. You can trust that when they're under my care, they receive the individualized attention and affection that sets my service apart. Your pets aren't just clients; they're cherished members of our extended furry family. Beyond the basics of feeding and grooming, I believe in building a genuine bond with your pets. They become a part of my extended family during their stay. I maintain open communication with you, providing updates, photos, and reassurance, so you can relax knowing your pets are thriving and content.

Wicker pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sangelina did such a great job watching Chevy while we were away. She kept us updated with photos and messages, gave him lots of love, and treated our home with so much care. We came back to everything just as we left it. Her attention to detail really gave us peace of mind! She is the best and we would 100% recommend her and we hope we are able to use her again.
Alexis was fantastic. The trip was somewhat last minute, and she was extremely quick in her response time and came over to meet the dog and cat in a most convenient way. During our trip she was great with communications and went so far as providing our adult children with updates, videos and description of activities in abundance. She made everyone in the family feel better about the trip and I cannot say enough good things about her attention to details, work ethic and communication skills. My only selfish complanate is the standoffish dog seemed to miss her. While that is a little ego crushing for me, I think it is a very positive reflection of her personality and love for the animals in her charge. I hope we have the opportunity to work with her again. She was great.
Gino was quick to accept the stay last minute ! He was very thorough on his questions asked before sitting and we felt at ease knowing pups were in good hands. He sent lots of videos and photos about the stay! Played and exercised the pups and the puppies seem to have a great time !!! Will book again!
Lindsey was amazing! She recently took care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats while we were out of town. Our pets have complicated schedules and Lindsey managed everything perfectly after having met once for a meet and great. She provided frequent updates and sent some of the cutest pictures I’ve ever seen of the fur babies. I wish I could give her more stars because she was wonderful. Highly recommend.
