  We present the leading-twist quark transverse momentum-dependent parton
distribution functions (TMDs) for the spin-1 target, such as the $\rho$-meson,
in the light-front framework. Specifically, we predict the TMDs in the
light-front holographic model and compare with the light-front quark model
predictions. We obtain the TMDs using the overlap of the light-front wave
functions. We evaluate the ${\bf k}_\perp$ moments upto second order and
compare with the available theoretical predictions. Further, we analyze the
leading-twist parton distribution functions (PDFs) of the $\rho$-meson in the
light-front holographic model which are found to be in accord with the
Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model and the light-front quark model predictions. We
further study the QCD evolution of the PDFs. The positivity bounds on the TMDs
and the PDFs are also discussed. We also present the quark spin densities in
the transverse momentum plane for different polarization configurations of the
quark and the $\rho$-meson target.
