“Bailey was FANTASTIC! Punctual, loving to our furr babies, and respectful to our requests! Our return, we found our home emaculate and in perfect order! She will be our 1st request to any future bookings l!”
“Sophia kept us super informed while we had to travel for a wedding and our pup was dealing with a medical issue. She has been fantastic with them! Especially for our pup that needs tons of meds!”
“Jennifer went above and beyond our expectations. This is the first time we've used someone we didn't know to watch our dog. Nervous about being gone for a week. Jennifer sent pictures, went on walks, played with our dog and much more. Jennifer was texting us each day with updates. Would highly recommend Jennifer and Rover service if you need someone to watch your dog.”
“Jordan stayed at our house for 5 days while we were on vacation. She did a great job taking care of the house and all our critters. Everyone was in excellent hands and we could breathe easier while being away from home!”
“Rachel did an amazing job watching my dogs while I was on a weekend getaway! She took such good care of them, and I really appreciated the pictures she sent – it gave me peace of mind knowing they were happy and well-cared for. Coming home to a clean house was an added bonus! I'll definitely be using her services again in the future. Rachel is my go-to dog sitter!”
“Ashleigh was great! Kept us updated and sent photos. One of our doggies got an upset tum and she handled it great and stayed with her a little longer than needed just to make sure she was okay until we got home.”
“Jennifer was great. She and her family were respectful and kind to our great Dane Cletus and to our home. I would highly recommend her to anyone. Her knowledge of how to handle animals is well thought out and executed properly. We will be trying to use her services again if we need to.”
About: I've loved animals all of my life and have experience caring for a variety of pets of different ages, sizes, personalities, and needs. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care, so I am patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet's individual routine. I am comfortable following specific instructions for feeding, exercise, playtime, and providing plenty of affection and attention. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe and comfortable while their owner is away, and I will treat your furry family member with the same care and respect I would want for my own pets. I am a full-time student, but 5 out of 6 of my classes are online, so my schedule is very flexible and can accommodate client needs. I have a class on Tuesday and Thursdays in the afternoon, but otherwise I am free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine and creating a safe, comfortable environment. I will carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications if applicable, playtime, and any specific needs or preferences. I understand that every pet is different, so I will take the time to learn their personality and ensure they feel comfortable while their owner is away. I will also treat your home with respect, keep the space clean, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident that your pet is safe and well cared for.
About: I am a reliable and compassionate animal sitter with over 15 years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, fish, rats, and lizards. My long history working with different species has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, routines, and individual needs. In addition to caring for others’ pets, I also have two dogs of my own, which has deepened my sense of responsibility and attentiveness when it comes to animal care. I know how important it is for pet owners to feel confident that their animals are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they are away Currently have open availability for those last minute trips or trips that are planned in advanced. Able to do in home care and for long walks. I provide attentive, reliable care for pets both in my home and in their own homes, depending on what is most comfortable for them and their owners. In my home, I create a calm, safe, and welcoming environment where pets can feel relaxed and cared for, while maintaining their usual routines as much as possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their environment familiar and stress-free by following their normal feeding schedules, playtime routines, and any special instructions provided. I understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities, so I focus on providing patient, individualized care to ensure they feel secure, comfortable, and well looked after while their owners are away.
About: I have worked with dogs and cats for over 8 years! I love getting to know new pets, and taking it at their pace until they're comfortable with me. I have extensive experience in canine enrichment, and helping with basic manners (sitting at doorway, leash control, "focus".) I also am Pet First Aid certified! I can't wait to meet your fur-end! I'm currently working full time at a dog daycare/lodging facility. I can normally be free after 7pm any day of the week, and sporadic days off normally during the week. I am very passionate, gentle, and patient! I'm more than glad to accommodate your pet in any way necessary to ensure their happiness and comfort.
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We couldn't have asked for a better experience with Anaiah! We have two very different dogs — Koa, our wild and lovable 1.5-year-old who basically demands your full attention at all times, and Rose, our sweet older girl who has a previous ACL injury that requires a more gentle approach. Anaiah handled both of them beautifully. She matched Koa's energy and gave him all the engagement he needed, while being incredibly thoughtful and careful with Rose — never pushing her too hard and always keeping her comfort in mind. It was clear she actually read and retained everything we shared about their needs, which meant the world to us. On top of the amazing dog care, Anaiah took wonderful care of our home as well. We came back to everything exactly as we left it — no stress, no surprises. Her communication throughout the stay was consistent and reassuring, and it was obvious this wasn't just a job for her — she genuinely cared about Koa and Rose's wellbeing. We will absolutely be using Anaiah again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter they can truly trust with their pets and their home. If you're on the fence, don't hesitate — you'll be in great hands! 🐾”
“Laurie did great with our three dogs. She also cleaned our house after a very rainy week while we were gone. I would recommend her to others for both house and pet sitting.”
About: I have taken care of many different pets aside from growing up with mostly dogs. Other than my absolute love for animals, I am reliable and hard working. I am currently available at almost all times! If you need a sitter during the week or weekends, I’m here for ya! Will keep schedule updated and current as life events come up! I am willing to do most things that are asked of me and follow the instructions I’m given. In the case of more freedom, I will use critical thinking and good judgement to solve any problem there may be and to take great care of your pet.
“We chose Sierra to provide in-home dog sitting services for our first use of Rover. She came to meet us a couple of weeks ahead of our travel, and spent time answering questions about her knowledge and experience caring for puppies. She also asked us questions about our preferences for their care, and for her use of our home. By the end of the visit, we felt far more comfortable with our decision. During our trip, Sierra kept us informed about her schedule, how the puppies were doing, and sent us photos of them. It was clear from the way she talked about them that she genuinely cared for them, and was taking excellent care of them. Upon returning home, we found the home and our puppies in good shape, with minimal cleaning needed (I should note that we have very high standards for cleanliness). Overall, we were very impressed with Sierra. She was very friendly and personable while also being very professional and responsive. We would gladly use her to care for our puppies again when we travel.”
“Timothy responded so quickly and really helped us when our other booking had to unexpectedly be cut short! He was very professional and was very communicative through the entire booking and sent so many pictures and updates, which we loved! He really was able to help us enjoy the rest of our trip by giving us a peace of mind with how well our pets were taken care of!”

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Atascosa walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Atascosa maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Atascosa choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
