About: I've taking care of my family's pets for the past 3 years. What sets me apart is that I build great connections with the pets and enjoy playing with them. I'm currently working part time remotely so I will have a lot of free time to dedicate to your pet. My job also allows me a great deal of flexibility so I can take your pets on walks or play with them. I only take care of pets at clients homes. I'm able to follow instructions as far as keeping the pet safe and in the allowed areas of the home. I'm also able to walk the fur baby outside in the neighborhood as needed.

About: Hi, I moved out here for my job leaving my 2 dogs at home. I need new furry friends to take my attention away from me🧡 I love taking dogs out for walk, play tags with them, and basically just sit there and enjoy being their company. I am usually pretty flexible on any weekends (Day/Night) Weekdays are negotiable upon request, I try to work around client's schedule most of the times I will keep eyes on the furry friends. Main focus is to feed the pets, take them out for a walk to destress then, go on potty breaks in between. Play with them, get them well rested for when their owners come back.

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’ve always been an animal lover, especially when it comes to dogs. I have experience with boarding facilities and providing attentive, compassionate animal care. For the past 18 years, I’ve worked at a high level as a landscape designer and installer, a career that has taught me to be responsible, dependable, detail-oriented, and comfortable working hard. This year, I decided to take some time away from my career to slow down, pursue a better balance in life, and spend more time doing things I genuinely enjoy. Caring for animals is something that brings me a lot of joy, and I would love the opportunity to help care for yours. I understand how important it is to feel confident that your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ll treat them with the same patience, attention, and affection I would want for my own. Also speak Portuguese, please call me G. I’m currently on a sabbatical. So I have tons of time to take care of yours pets. Also I got a 15k step day challenge thing, I would be happy to take your dog or cat on a walk. I have a fenced in yard and pretty pet safe. My own dogs have never scaled so there’s that. I am pretty adaptable, so if your pet requires extra care and as long it’s safe to do, I got you!

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.

About: I have worked with furry friends as a licensed veterinary technician for almost 12 years now and have had my own pets for 18. I feel confident caring for dogs at any age and varying medical needs! I now work as a full-time collegiate minister but since my previous career was in veterinary medicine, I still look for ways to work with pets! My schedule varies from week to week allowing for much flexibility for pet sitting! I like to care for pets as closely to how the owner would care for their pet! This means is the owner would rather me stay overnight at their home, I am happy to do that. I often work remotely so can spend extended hours in the client’s home keeping their pets company, especially if their pets have separation anxiety.

About: Hi! I’ve been around animals my whole life and have always loved caring for them. Growing up, my family had dogs, cats, and even a raccoon and squirrel for a little while thanks to my grandma lol! So I’m definitely comfortable around all kinds of personalities and energy levels! Right now, my boyfriend and I have two cats and a dog of our own, so caring for pets is a big part of my everyday life. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your fur babies, and I’d love to help give them the same love, attention, and care I give my own pets. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, walks, or just having someone around to make them feel safe and comfortable, I’m happy to help. I’ll always treat your pets like family! I recently left my full time job to pursue my teaching certification, so I have pretty open availability based on your needs! I will be sure to keep my calendar up to date as well. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and lots of attention and affection. I know every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I always try to match their needs and energy. I’m also happy to give updates and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pets are happy and cared for while you’re away. Since I have pets of my own, I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your fur babies.

About: Big dogs, little dogs , senior citizens, medical problems , puppies … I can do it !! I’ve been a professional dog sitter on and off Rover for the past five years. Since my time with Rover, I have gained experience with house sitting, communicating with owners with lots of pictures and updates, boarding at my house with my babies, and developing trusting relationships with returning clients. I’ve been with my best friend Petro (Weimaraner ) since he was 2 months old ! I’ve been his dog sitter for 6 years and I see him every two hours on the weekdays. His owner lets me spend the night when they’re out of town so I am experience in house sitting! I have a 17 yr old senior citizen dachshund. I also have an 3yr old pug named Mochi ! She’s my sweet little girl. Along with my best friend patches who is a 9year old tabby cat ! I love animals so much and have surrounded them around my life for 15 years. I would love the opportunity to take care of your baby in a fun safe environment ! I’m a very active person and can also take your dogs on a walk ! I have a big backyard as well that is long enough to run in! I graduated college and I’m now working at a hospital where I set my own days. My schedule is VERY flexible if asked in advance. I do not work weekends ! I dog sit my regular from 12-2 on the days I don’t work. Petros owner gave me a copy of the house key. I’ll go into the house, get attacked with hugs and kisses from Petro and immediately take him out. He’ll go outside for one hour with toys and I’ll chase him around the back yard. The next hour he’ll eat lunch and I’ll put treats inside his toys so he can relax on the couch and chew his toys. I’ll take his toys and throw them for him to chase whenever im able to steal them lol. I don’t enter any rooms I don’t need to go in. I don’t typically watch tv. I’ll stay in the living room and backyard. If it’s cold weather I’ll do 30 minutes inside 30 out or 15 in, 15 outside. As far as my house goes, I have a senior who’s too old to do much. They love to sleep and are very friendly. I have a 3yr old pug that loves to play ! Your dogs will be safe in my fenced backyard. I have 2 dog houses for them to rest in. I leave blankets on the floor to sun bathe and also have shaded raised cots. They are allowed inside my house. My dogs sleep inside the house. The senior dachshund sleeps on the bed with my sister. My pug is crate trained in my room. Sleeps on the bed on the weekends. Your dogs are always welcome in my house and will never be sleeping in uncomfortable conditions.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Elmendorf

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Elmendorf is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 2,545 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Elmendorf. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

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 Elmendorf 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!

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 .

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Elmendorf with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Elmendorf. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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.
