About: I have two of the cutest fur babies that have grown up with me my entire life ! I love dogs and I love giving them the care and attention they need from daily walks and playtime to cuddles and belly rubs. I also am a cat person although I don't have any I love being around them and hope to get one of my own soon ! I go to school for some of my day but for the rest I'm ready to give all my attention to your fur babies ! I live in a pet friendly home with many walking trails and grass to take them to explore ! I also don't have roommates !
“Been booking Mr Mel every week since I've found him, he's so amazing with our extremely hyper Doberman, we appreciate you more than ever man, he always goes above and beyond!”
“Charlotte dropped by our place to take care of our kittens while we were away and was wonderful with feeding, taking care of litter, and making sure the kitties were happy!”
“Diana is such an amazing help to our family! She takes care of our 4-legged kid so well and is so helpful when it comes to crazy schedules! We truly could not do it without her.”
About: I’ve really gotten to know the ins and outs of being an animal mom. I also got to spend my day caring for other people’s fur babies in my job as a vet tech. All these wonderful things combined give me a wealth of crucial experience that keeps your mind at ease knowing your kiddos are well cared for in your absence. Now that I’m permanently WFH, all I need is a reliable wifi connection to work from anywhere— including while I hang out with your fur baby! I wake up, let the fur kids out, feed breakfast, and before I started WFH, we’d all pile in the car to go to the park before work. Then, we’d spend the day together at the clinic. After that, we’d head home for dinner and a nice long walk before bed. My life has always revolved around my four legged kids! I like to establish guidelines with each owner regarding their pets schedule. Dogs and cats love routines, and part of pet sitting is to fit into what the animal is used to so that they don’t feel stress or uneasiness while their owner is away. I always work with the owner to find out what best works to keep the pet comfortable and feeling secure in their absence.
About: I’ve been around pets since I can remember growing up with 2 dogs and 2 cats. I currently own a 5 year old orange cat named Yogurt who loves to keep me on my toes! I have experience fostering dogs through SNIPSA and am comfortable providing medical care and handling a variety of situations that come along with each individual pet. I’m comfortable and experienced with young cats/dogs to senior cats and dogs! As a pet owner I understand the stress that comes along with leaving your pet and will do my best to accommodate both you and your fur baby to make it as stress free as possible! I’m currently working full time! I have the ability to adjust my schedule with a weeks notice in terms of the hours I work either working earlies or mid day hours. I’d be able to adjust my time to what best suits your pets! I live in an apartment; however, I would be able to crate your dog if needed. I live around the Pearl area which gives me access to plenty of walking trails!
“Olivia was amazing! She came by to feed our senior cat who only eats wet food. We also have other cats that can make things tricky since they always want that food too, but she followed our instructions perfectly and handled it with no problem. It’s such a relief to have someone trustworthy come into our home and care for our pets. We’ll definitely be booking with Olivia again!”
“Lexi was great and enjoyed spending time with my cats. She was attentive and accommodated their schedule. I felt very comfortable with her and appreciate how quickly she responds.”
“Ciria was wonderful to work with! She was joyful, communicative, and really cared about our cats. She wrote the most detailed updates about her check-in so I never worried for a second if my cats were okay. That's the dream. I would hire her again immediately! Highly recommended her services!!”
“Flor is absolutely the sweetest! Our picky fur babies opened up to her quickly! I reached out to Flor very short notice and the whole meet/greet and visit went far smoother than the day trip my husband and I had lol Thank you, Miss Flor!”

About: Dog lover and experienced pet caregiver with 12+ years as a proud dog mom to my sweet chiweenie, Max! I’ve cared for family pets for nearly two decades and have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels — from playful pups to senior dogs needing a little extra TLC. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, medication administration, feeding, cuddles, belly rubs, or just a calm and caring companion while you’re away, I’m here to help. I love getting out for sniff-filled strolls, step goals, and leisurely neighborhood walks tailored to your dog’s pace and personality. I treat every pet like family and always aim to make them feel safe, loved, and happy while in my care. 🫶🏼 I currently work from home with a flexible schedule to accommodate drop ins or walks throughout the day with my best availability in the mornings, lunch, or late afternoon. I can also be available on weekends! I am always sure to stay calm around new pets, letting them warm up to me before we get started. Whether they are ready to roll and get to stepping, or want to lounge about with cuddles and attention I always take my queues for what they need.
“Tim is an absolute rockstar with our pups! Even my little timid whippet is comfortable around him and that is no small achievement! I’m so happy that we found Tim!”
About: they are not just pets they are apart of your family and ill welcome them with open arms into my home.

About: I have owned and cared for dogs and cats for more than 20 years. I am comfortable with pets of all ages, administering medicine, and giving your pets extra love and attention while you are away. I’m currently semi-retired so I have a flexible schedule. I am originally from Massachusetts and moved to San Antonio in 2022 to be near my children and grandkids. I am reliable, honest, and loving. I can care for your pets in your home and will follow any instructions given. I am happy to bring your pets to my home but only have a small yard so it may not be ideal for larger dogs.
“Destiny went above and beyond while watching Jager. Having her spend quality time with him, waking and playing tug-o-war, made me so comfortable while I was away. I would definitely recommend her and book her again for another trip.”

Alamo Heights dog parents share their Rover experiences
We had a great experience with Zaihyden! He went above and beyond caring for Jovi, especially when Jovi was being a little stubborn at first. Communication was great, and we really appreciated the patience and extra effort. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing Jovi was in good hands. We would absolutely hire Zaihyden again in the future and highly recommend him to friends and family!
Meeting with Bailey and Minnie Pearl went off without a hitch. She was so excited to meet Bailey and to share her favorite toys. As for me, it was instant trust, and I couldn’t be happier with Bailey. They played together and even took a brief walk while still learning the leash. Bailey was sweet and caring and has a positive energy and enthusiasm. I highly recommend her for your pet!
Very communicative! Received lots of photos and videos. Knowledgable of dog breeds and GDV. It was nice knowing she is as observant as I am. I have a food reactive dog and she followed feeding instructions perfectly. It brought me a lot of comfort knowing Anna was looking after them. Will book her again!
Connie did an amazing job checking in on Ollie while I’ve been out of town! I loved all the photos and updates she sent, it really gave me peace of mind knowing he was being well taken care of. I’m sure Ollie enjoyed her company and all the attention she gave him. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!
Sara has been such a great sitter for my furry babies! They were well taken care of, happy and relaxed! My cat, Obi, is not one to warm up easily to people, but Sara managed to get him to engage with her, come out for pics and even got him to show off his pancake routine, belly exposed. My dog, Nala, also seemed very happy with the care, walks and play time. I loved how I got timely updates, pictures in which my pets looked happy and relaxed, gave me a lot of peace of mind. I wholeheartedly recommend Sara for all the other pet parents and we’ll 100% rebook!
Angelica goes above and beyond to care for my animals (cat and dog). They absolutely adore her and I have complete faith in her for caring for my pets. I love being able to take trips and not have any worries about the care my pets are getting since I know they’re in great hands!
