“This was our first time booking a house sitter. We have 3 dogs and it just became prohibitive going anywhere and trying to figure out what to do with our dogs. We had our meet and greet with Lauren about 3-4 weeks in advance of our trip and she took a lot of notes, was very nice and very responsive. Our trip was 10 days and she notified us when she arrived, sent lots of pictures throughout the week and promptly responded to all my check-ins. When we came home, the dogs were happy, fed and also tired so I know they had lots of exercise. The house was cleaned up and everything went very well. We will definitely book Lauren again!”
“Lili did such a beautiful job taking care of our boys and our home! We loved the daily videos and extra care she gave our boys. We can’t express how grateful we are to her and would love to hire her anytime we travel!”
“Dora was amazing with my pups for house sitting! She kept me updated throughout my time away and sent plenty of pictures. She went above and beyond with everything. Thank you again!”
“Matthew was simply incredible. He provided constant updates, pictures and walks every day. Took this job on short notice and made us feel incredibly comfortable while we were away. He’s a great choice and we look forward to continuing our relationship with him! ❤️”
About: I grew up with all types of different pets in the household from dogs to guinea pigs to birds and even shrimp! So, naturally, I came to love for all animals! Loving them means to also care for them, so I had to provide care for each animal making sure they were properly fed, cleaned, and had a safe environment to sleep. What you can expect from me: * Quick responses * Reliable scheduling * Updates/photos during visits * Respect for your home and routine I currently work part time and go to school full time, but I still have plenty of time to dedicate to the loved animals of San Antonio. I promise to provide the absolute best care to your pets and to your homes. I will make sure your pets are kept safe and properly cared for. I also walk my dogs all the time, so I know proper handling and care when walking a dog.
About: I’m a lifetime pet owner with one small dog now. He is a Pomeranian named Stitch! I rescued him two years ago and he’s full of energy! He absolutely loves playing with other dogs and we walk pretty regularly. I love being outdoors and enjoy long walks. I do allow dogs to sleep in my bed and love furry cuddles! I have plenty of experience with dogs who have medical needs and feel comfortable administering meds. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend! My schedule is extremely flexible which is perfect for checking in on pups during the day and taking them out on walks or following their feeding schedule. I live in a house with a secure fenced in yard and plenty of space to run around! My neighborhood also has sidewalks and walking trails that are perfect for dogs.
“We are so thankful for Brylee! Communication was great while we were away and our dog Buddy seemed so so happy when we got back home from our weekend trip; hoping to book Brylee again in the future.”
“Kelley was great. She was very thorough and arrived on time. While we were gone, Kelley sent pictures to my cell, so I was sure Sophie was well cared for. Upon our arrival home, the house was clean and in order. We will definitely use her again.”
“Ella did a great job with our animals on a short notice booking. She was very helpful and communicative while we were away. Our dogs were very happy and well taken care of during our time away.”
“Victoria exceeded all expectations! I have 2 cats (15 & 6) that both required different levels of care and Victoria was able to handle both of them. She was very thorough in her prep and we had a video consult to go over all expectations, requests, questions, etc. She was detailed and asked questions I hadn’t even thought to cover. During the pet sitting, she kept me updated at all time and provided pictures to let me know the girls were doing okay. My 15 year old cat requires multiple medications that can sometimes be difficult to administer and she was able to administer with no issues. Nothing about this was a negative experience and I would recommend her to anyone!! I will definitely be rebooking her in the future.”
“Wonderful experience for both our pups and us! Thalia was super responsive, cheery, and the pups really responded well to her even while we were away. Would happily have her house/pet sit for us again.”
“Grace Ella is amazing! Once you meet her, you can see her love for animals, their care and being attentative to her client’s needs. She truly loved our dog as if it were her own. Hope to have Grace Ella back soon to stay with our doggie!”
“Aaliyah is a new house/pet sitter for us and recently “sat” for us for a weekend away. She was great! She was very attentive to our two dogs and did everything we asked (and more). I will definitely be using Aaliyah again. She has proven to be responsible and trustworthy.”
“Melissa was wonderful. She took great care of my 3 dogs. She sent me texts and photos to show all was good. I will be using her again and totally recommend her!”
“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.”
“Kadence is an amazing sitter! I have four adorable fur babies, and they can be quite challenging, but Kadence handled everything with ease. I can't wait to book her again for our pet care needs she's simply the best!”
“Thank you Lindsey for taking such good care of my Hunter. I appreciate the pictures and the communications. I felt totally at ease with you taking care of my Hunter and my home while I was gone.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Bulverde
Jessica is a wonderful pet sitter! She was very kind and patient with my 4 crazy dogs and they adore her. She also kept my house clean and tidy, which is a lovely thing to come home to. With our permission, she brought her own dog to stay at our house, because she was house sitting and it was easier that way. Her dog, Daisy, looks intimidating but is a very sweet dog and she got along fine with my dogs. We ended up having to extend our stay overseas because I was not well, and Jessica took care of everything with no problems at all. I recommend her very highly!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Bulverde on Rover is $40.81 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,891 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bulverde. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Bulverde 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 Bulverde 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.
Tip: 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 Bulverde 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
