Whatever your dog needs are I am open to assisting I currently have a full time job Monday- Friday, weekends off. I can do evening drop ins or weekends. Looking for something to do after work.

About: Hi! My name is Briannah Fritzinger, I am 21 and I'm a full-time at-home pet sitter here in Selma, Texas. I am currently pursuing pet sitting full-time, so your pets will have a calm, present, and attentive caregiver with them throughout the day. I have over 6 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals like hamsters, fish, and lizards . I'm comfortable with handling puppies, kittens, seniors, and pets who need medication or extra patience. I offer boarding, daycare, drop-ins, and walks, with potty breaks every 2-4 hours and lots of photo updates. I am available 7 days a week, including weekends and holidays, from 8am to 5pm for scheduled care, with extended availability for boarding and emergencies. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I currently have 4 cats of my own, so my day is built around feeding, cleaning, and playtime. I have a very flexible schedule, so I'm available for morning, midday, and evening drop-ins, walks, and overnights during the week and on weekends. In your home, I keep your pet's routine exactly the same — feeding times, walks for dogs, habitat temps and humidity checks, as well as safe handling for all. As well as litter box cleanings.I do a meet-and-greet first to learn their setup, emergency contacts, and vet info, and I always keep doors, gates, and enclosures secured. In my home, I only board cats. I have a clean, cat-friendly space with 4 of my own cats. Boards would be separate from my cats and have their own clean space and environment to be in!
About: I have been animal sitting since I was in single digits. Now I have my own well adjusted (mostly) fur babies that I care for. Rogue, Kevin, Remy and Bernadette are my world. I take pride in the fact that they are never afraid of a raised hand an have never known a day of starvation. Toys are plentiful in our home, as are warm places to sleep. Lap cuddles are always welcome. I have trained two service dogs, as well as taught many more dogs basic manners. No harsh words or raised voices, but reward based systems instead. I am currently a stay-at-home pet mom, so my schedule is wide open. The only standing obligation I have is church on Sundays, which can be adjusted with notice. Same day requests are doable as long as it is not same day boarding. My schedule is already bent to the will of my own fur babies, I can easily to adjust to whatever you need! I have a fenced in yard, and a single story home for safety. I have my own fur babies: Rogue, my senior cat who minds her own business. Kevin, my senior large dog who is a retired service dog. Then my two year old pups, Remy and Bernadette. Remy is an active service dog, while Bernadette has separation anxiety. In our home no animal is left alone. In boarding situations a private space can be provided for your animal. Kennels and gates are available for separation if needed.
About: Hello, I’m Matthew, based in the San Antonio area with prior experience owning and caring for a husky. I understand the importance of consistency, exercise, patience, and clear communication when it comes to pets. I currently offer evening and weekend availability for: * Dog walking * Drop-in visits * Weekend sitting * Overnight care Because I work full-time during the day, I’m best suited for dogs that are comfortable being alone during normal work hours. At this time, I’m unable to provide constant care or all-day supervision services. As a former husky owner, I’m familiar with: * High-energy breeds * Long walks and exercise needs * Leash handling * Feeding routines * Basic grooming and care * Maintaining calm and consistent routines I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and respectful of both pets and owners’ homes. I’m happy to provide updates and photos during visits so you can feel comfortable while away. For everyone’s comfort and safety, I prefer to schedule a meet & greet before new bookings whenever possible. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup! Pet care fits naturally into my routine outside of my full-time job. I’m available for evening walks and drop-in visits during the week, and more flexible availability on weekends for overnight care or extended visits. I maintain a structured and reliable routine, which helps me provide consistent care, exercise, feeding, potty breaks, and attention for pets. Because I work during standard daytime hours, I’m best suited for dogs that are comfortable being alone for part of the day and do not require constant care. I enjoy staying active and understand the importance of keeping dogs mentally and physically engaged, especially high energy breeds like huskies. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and consistent environment for every pet in my care. In a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow the owner’s instructions closely regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, routines, house rules, and preferred care methods. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners feel comfortable while away. Safety is very important to me, especially during walks and outdoor time. I pay close attention to leash security, surroundings, and each dog’s comfort level and behavior. As a former husky owner, I understand the importance of exercise, structure, and attentiveness with high energy breeds. I treat every client’s home respectfully and professionally, keeping things clean and secure during visits or overnight stays. At this time, I primarily offer care in clients’ homes, along with walks and drop in visits, based on my work schedule and availability.
“We are so grateful for this couple! They were so understanding and took care of our kitty. They sent daily photos and videos while we were away. They have a quick response time and are very accommodating!”
“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.”
“Bryanna was great with our Gordito! She was careful and patient with him and made sure all his needs were attended to. She was detail oriented with our specific requests. Would definitely get her again!”
“Hannah was great with my dog. She was very attentive to her needs and administered her medication to calm her from the passing storms. She communicated very well with me before and during the visit.”
“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.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,335 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Carpenter. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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 .
