“This was our first time using Rover and Sam & Angela. We felt totally comfortable leaving our pups with them. They truly love what they do and it shows in every way. Very caring & nurturing! They definitely go the extra mile to care for your pets. Thanks to all!!”
“Sierra did a fantastic job with our 14 year old dog!!!! She stayed a little extra and made sure he felt plenty of love and care!! Hands down i will use her again in the future!!!!!”
About: Hi, my name is Ishel! I’ve loved animals my entire life and have 26 years of hands-on experience caring for pets. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, including puppies. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s going on walks, playing, giving baths, feeding them, or simply giving them lots of love and attention. I treat every pet in my care like they’re part of my own family and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. I have three dogs of my own who are on a regular schedule and are very well trained, so I’m already used to keeping up with daily routines and taking care of multiple pets. I work 1–2 days a week, which gives me plenty of time to be home and give the pets in my care plenty of love, attention, playtime, and care. I’m happy to follow their normal routine so they feel comfortable, happy, and right at home. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they are in a safe, clean, comfortable environment. I follow each pet’s routine, keep a close eye on them, and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I’m especially comfortable caring for dogs, including puppies and dogs with different personalities and energy levels.
About: I love my dogs and I will love yours to!! Your family member will have a great place to stay, and somebody to play with. They will be well taken care of and have everything they will need, food, water, outside, pet scratches, and belly rubs. We will be taking walks in a lovely neighborhood and spend some time at the park. You may not want them to stay to long or they may not want to go home. I look forward to taking in your family members while you are out of town or taking care of business. Either way you can rest easy knowing your beloved animals are here with me and in a safe place, I will be more than happy to do so! Thank you for your time and hope I’m a good match for you and your fur babies. I currently have free time at my home so I would love to spend some time with a friendly pet. I am currently a stay at home mom. I like to give attention when attention is needed to pets. If they want to play I will play with them or if they need to go out to potty, I will take them out. Anything your pet needs I will be there.
“Abagail was amazing!! She checked in on our 3 pets and sent update pictures each time. We have an older, grumpy chihuahua and she was very patient with him. All the pets were comfortable with her from the start. We will definitely be using her again.”
“I can enjoy myself and not worry about my fur babes when I have Miguel and Marifer come to visit. The care and individual attention they give to each of my fur babes cannot be matched. I would recommend them to anyone who treats their animals like family.”
About: I have taken care of 25+ dogs and cats in the past 3 years, to include in home/overnight pet- and house-sitting, dog walking, brushing, litter box maintenance and pill-based medication administration. When taking care of other people’s pets, I provide the attention and care that I was seeking for my own cat and dog (who, sadly, are no longer with me.) My top priority is the safety of the pet, and to that end, I take no risks with the animals in my care – food protocols are carefully followed, walks are always on leash and doors are carefully monitored to ensure indoor cats remain indoors. With my pet care services, you will have: • Happy, safe and well-cared-for pets • A clean and orderly (tidy) home • Clear and timely communication • Regular and frequent updates (with photos and videos of your pets) • Reliable and dependable pet and home care As a recently-retired educator, I have a very flexible schedule, with plenty of time for your pets. I am available for daily walks, overnight or weekend house sits (your house or mine) and vacation sits (1-4 weeks is typical). When starting a new relationship with a client and their pet(s), I schedule a brief ‘pop over’ appointment where I can meet the animal(s) in the presence of their humans. This helps everyone involved – pets and humans – get to know me and feel comfortable with me before I take on the responsibility for the pet. I take care to be calm around the pets I sit - I let both cats and dogs take their time to warm up to me (come to me when they are ready, sniff my hands, my person, my things). I am careful when feeding animals - particularly dogs - giving them space. I follow the pet's routine - if they sleep on the bed, I let them sleep on the bed; if they like to go in and out frequently, I let them go in and out frequently. I try to make them as comfortable as I can, in their human's absence.

I work and go to school so my availability will begin on Fridays throughout the weekend, I am available Tuesday’s and Thursday as well!

“Not only was Leana AMAZING with my two cats, but she was also super responsive and showed so much genuine interest in their comfort. I couldn't recommend her enough!!”
“Tom is great. He always does a great job and is super friendly. He has been a lifesaver for us. We were in a pinch and found out we needed to leave town and he was so accommodating and we truly appreciate him. Highly recommend.”
About: I truly love dogs and have grown up around them my whole life! Caring for animals is important to me and dogs have a certain ability to make me happy. I love long walks, playing with dog toys, and ensuring they get enough pets! Taking care of your animal takes care of me because it’s truly something that brings me joy! I will walk or take car of pets whenever I am able too. I have a full time job but do this in my free time and make a priority to take care of as many animals as possible! I care for my pets at home by ensuring they always have food and water, a clean litter box, lots of pets and I play with them. Treats too! Lots of treats lol! Both my animals have different personalities so one of them sleeps next to my head ( a must ) so I set up the pillows for her. My other one screams at my while I shower lol. My life is animals and I wouldn’t want it any other way!

About: I have had my dog Scooter for 9 years. He is a Dachshund who has lived with dogs as big as a Newfie/Saint Bernard as well as small dogs like pugs. I haven't found one that he hasn't gotten along with. I can provide a wide range of services and live only 5 minutes from work so I can usually stop home every couple hours to meet the needs of your pet. When I go out of town I know the level of comfort I need to leave my dog with someone so I will go above and beyond to make sure your pet enjoys their time and you have peace of mind in whatever service I can provide to you. I look forward to working with you and your pets!
About: Howdy, my name is Brianna and I just recently graduated Texas A&M University. I’ve been around dogs and animals all my life and own my own fur ball named Duck. I would love to share my love for animals with your very own whether it be a dog or cat …. Or chickens!!! :) I don’t discriminate! I’m currently taking a gap from from school so I don’t really have a hard set schedule at the moment. I’m available early mornings or late at night Every pet owner has a routine for their own so I like to do things as the owner would feel most comfortable. For my dog Duck I take her on 2-3 walks a day (depending on how hot it is outside) 2 of those walks take place on a hover board as she runs besides me, it’s her fav! I also drop in on cats and feed, water, and spend quality time with them as well as dogs. As I’ve said before I’m here for you how ever you need me to be!
About: Hi, my name is Elizabeth. I love taking walks and going for hikes. I enjoy having dogs around all the time. I’m very good on instructions for dogs that are under strict orders or rules. I always keep in touch to let you know how everything is on walks, dog sitting, etc. if you have questions for me don’t hesitate to ask. I want you as well as your dog/dogs to feel comfortable with me and trust me as much as possible. I only take dogs to places they feel comfortable and will be able to interact with other dogs. I work from home so pets are with me 24/7. I try to take them out morning, afternoon and night but will go out more if they need. I live in an apartment with a balcony. I typically let them do there own thing. I will take them on walk and to the dog park.
“Alyssa does an amazing job! I have been using her for months. She stays overnight, helps clean litter boxes and house sits while you are gone!! She watches a variety of pets. She takes great care of senior pets that needs lots of love and senior needs. I highly recommend Alyssa for your pets!”
About: I can't remember a time in my life where I haven't had dogs or cats in my house. Just recently we have had two dogs in our home and three cats! I have gotten very used to caring for dogs & cats and having them around all the time. I miss having a pet close by and that's why I have chosen to work with Rover! I live in the North East side of San Antonio. My area is close to wonderful paved trails and a nice shaded dog park. I will treat your pet as if they were my own. I hope you will trust me to care for your family member! I am in a season of life where I have a lot of flexibility so I can focus on caring for your pet! Which means a lot of time for walking and playing and attention to your pet! My pets have a big backyard where they can bark and chase squirrels all day. I also have a crate if needed or preferred. Pets are like family so I love keeping them close by!
“Sabrina is amazing! My pups loved having her come over and she kept me and my girlfriend updated with pictures and videos. She not only let our dogs out during her drop in visits but she stayed for 30-45 minutes and played with them and gave them lots of attention. I will definitely be using her again and would recommend her to any of my friends here in town!”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Calaveras
Both Angela and Sam are wonderful to work with. They took the time to meet and greet before setting plans. Then during the actual drop in, they sent photo updates of their time with my dog. Open communication and very understanding. Made the whole process so much less stressful. Would highly recommend them and will definitely repeat request them!
Katriana came to our house twice, in one day to feed and interact with our two, elderly and sometimes anxious dogs and cat. All of our fur babies loved her instantly on her initial visit, allowing me great relief in trusting her to their care. She provided detailed updates and pictures during her visits. We arrived home to calm pups and a chill cat. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs in-home animal care!
Katriana is amazing! She came by before our trip to meet all the fur babies, see where everything was that is needed to take care of the babies and to reassure me that my babies were in good hands. I felts 100% comfortable leaving all my babies in her hands and the stress that I was feeling was eliminated after meeting her. Our fur babies were loved and taken care of while we were out of town. Katriana is tentative, respectful, reassuring, and loving. I would recommend her to everyone that is looking for a wonderful pet sitter because she goes above and beyond.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
